Rapidly on the Chicago Market.

New York, Jan. 26.-Milk, eggs and

invoked in the movement to combat

GOOD RESULTS FROM PRISON
TERM

Millionaire Bradbury, who recently
completed a years prison term in San
Quentin, has announced that he will
appropriate a portion of his wealth in
assisting discharged prisoners to secure
a new start in the world.
In this instance it would seem that
prison discipline and association have
accomplished good results, since they
have turned q sour, grabbed, I'm
charitable man into a philanthropist
anxious to 'tlend a hand' to unfortu
nate human beings. Millionaire Brad
bury found that a majority of the con
victs in San Quentin would average
~favorably with the ordinary run Of men
outside the walls and that their great
est crime lay in the fact that they were
m~oneyless and consequently friendless.
1t is to be hoped that MI. Bradbury
viii put his good resolutions into eff
feet at once, before his ardor has
cooled.

FREEDoM OF TILE PRESS

Adiudging the Salt Lake Herald-Re .
publican and several Of its employees
to be guilty Of contempt of court for
publishing the confession of Harry
Thorne to the murder of George W.
Fassal in March last, Judge Lewis
fined the paper 5000 in each of two
cases, the limit of the law; fined the
general manager of the corporation
5000 and sentenced him to the county
jail for 80 days, and fined three mem
bers of the editorial staff of the paper
$40 each.
This action on the part of the Zion
jurist would seem to take the city
back to the good old days when the
community was run by the Mormon
church and its edicts were enforced by
the "blood ~atonement."
Since the repeal of the odious sedi-
ton act, many years ago, and the
downfall of the Federalist party, the
right of the public press to publish the
news has been generally conceded.
Parties feeling that they have been
maligned or otherwise injured have a
remedy at law. To claim that all men
who have read accounts of a criminal
case in the papers are disqualified to
sit as jurors, is assuming that they
are children and not independent think
ers. 1t might with equal propriety be
said that the judge was unfit to try
the cause for the same reason.
However, the judgment of the court
is not likely to be enforced for the
reason that the case has been appealed
to the supreme court of the state
where it will be reviewed by men
of presumably mental calibre andaoill
of presumably broader mental calibre
and the decision overruled.
