JUDGE UPHOLDS
POWER OF PRESS
Strong Defense of Its Freedom
Is Written in Kentucky
Case

FRANKFORT, Ky, Feb. pa strong
defense of the freedom of the press in
criticism of public officials was writ
ten by Governor Augustus Wilson to-
day in granting pardon to the Herald
publishing company of Louisville, pub
fishers of the Louisville Herald, for an
indictment in the Galloway and in
Trigg circuit courts, charging the pa
per with criminally libeling Judge
Thomas P. Cook and Commonwealth S
Attorney Denny p. Smith.
The two officials preside in the dis
trict in which the greater part of the
night rider troubles in western Ken
lucky occurred. Governor Wilson
wrote:
If the courts don't put an end to
the rule of crime in the counties in
which the Judge and the common
wealth's attorney are elected to up- .
hold law and order the only hone
of permanent relief from such con
ditions is an enlightened public
sentiment aroused by the press of
the country, and instead of pun
ishing the newspaper which makes
fight against such conditions. it
should be regarded as fulfilling a
duty.

Nogsles has a Fair Contestant.

The Arizona Gazette has planned to send ten young ArizDua ladies securing the largest number of votes in their respective districts to the Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition at Seattle next summer. The votes are given to subscribers to the paper, new or those who are taking the paper paying up arrearages and paying in advance specified time. One sending a new sub- scription for three month at $l 50 is entitled to cast 300 votes for the young lady of his choice; six months at $3 gives 600 votes; twelve months at $6 casts 2.00O votes, while two years subscription costing SIP brings 5000 votes. These figures are for new sub scribers. Subscribers already talk ing the paper renewing their sub- scriptions earn the young lady in whose favor they cast their votes just half the number.
 It is promised that the young ladies winning the coveted excur- sion will have the time of their lives. All expenses are to be paid by the Gazette, and there will be a competent chaperon in charge of the party.
 Nogales has entered a candidate in this novel contest in the person of Miss Margaret Brickwood, one of the most popular and charming young ladies of the line city, who has host of friends who will unite, doubtless, in swelling the subscrip- tion list of the Gazette in favor of that young lady. THE OASIS be- speaks for Miss Margaret big vote from her fellow townsmen, and hopes to see her lead the list.

 From the foregoing it would seem that Jndge Nave construes the law to include any device whatever of chance or skill by which money or property may be made to change hands without rendition of an equivalent com modity.
 But observe the gist of Judge Nave's remark: If necessary we will re- move the justices of the peace; we will remove the sheriff; we will re- move the district attorney, but we will enforce the law" That sounds like it was meant. Now, then, would 1t not be sensational in the extreme to see the sheriff and dis trct attorney haIed into court and removed for failing to enforce the law?
 Since the foregoing was in type there has come from Phoenix the information that the legislature, having discovered that the Duffy act is too drastic (which m+ans that members of the democratic majority have heard from men at home without whose support they would have been defeated) has passed another act modifying the provisions of the Duffy law. The provisions of this later act are not known at this writing. But it's return will be awaited with interest. Perhaps the boys may sit down and have a little social game for the drinks yet.
