A Newspapers Privileges

} Judge Case of Hartford gave decision
in Bridgeport the other day, already
noted by telegraph, which deserves a
careful consideration by the newspaper
world. A lot has been published about
that famous case where prominent
Bridgeport citizen killed man with his
automobile and kept the fact secret for
two years. The Bridgeport Post severely
criticised police judge who was aware
of the fact and who, refusing to act as
counsel for the automobilst, referred that
gentleman TO his law partner, and an at
tempt was made to settle the case out of
court and thus keep the possibly crimi-
nal side of it hidden.
The offended judge sued the Post for
libel and Judge Case dismisses the prose-
cution, holding that the paper was with
in its rights. as an exponent of public
opinion, in passing adverse judgment on
such a course. Popular sentiment"
says the judge, sis perhaps more or less
accurately reflected by the daily news
papers, "Perhaps!'' The papers, lie
says, are entitled to the privilege of fair
comment" 1t would have been very
welcome if the case might have present
ed itself in little different form. Sup
pose that the judge of the police court,
whose action in this matter was not from
the bench, had opened himself to similar
criticisms while acting as judge, and
suppose the judge thus criticised had i'm
court. What would Judge Case or any
other just-minded occupant of the supe-
rior court bench have done in that case?

About Libel Suits

The Morrisville News and Citizen ex-
pressed its opinion of public act of an
official 1--WE cannot recollect his name)
whereupon the official sued the proprie-
tor of the News and Citizen for libel in
the sum of $4,000 We have eagerly
scanned the newspapers but have yet to
see the suit tried. And we wonder why.
To prepare libel suit requires no effort,
one merely submits the article and it is
up to the defence to make good his asser-
tons.
Libel suits brought by public officials
are the marvels of modern instances.
They often start but seldom end. They
are usually harmless, merely afferding
amusements for the jurors. We believe
that any public official is open to criti-
cism, and if the statements made are un-
true and the offended one sues for libe
that such suit should only be brought in
the criminal court. Money cannot recon-
pense wrong to ones character. What
good is ,000-$100, 900 or million in
money compared with ones good name?
The man who sues for 81 is anxious to
prove his innocence, and defend his hon.
or; the man who sues for $4,000 is evil

A ChiId's PRAYERS.

If the mother would teach her child
to pray she must first know how to
pray herself. Then if she kneels by
her child's bed and in simple words
commits her household to the keeping
of him who slumbers not nor sleeps
her child will catch something of his
mothers spirit and trustfulness and in
time, learning to join with the mother
in the words as he has already joined
with her in the spirit Of reverence and
repose, will learn to pray. The mother
who has no such experience cannot in
spire it in her child, but must leave it
to be given by some one better equip
ped than herself.-Lyman Abbott in

The Sim plon Pass.

The Simplon pass was a famous
highway of travel long before Napo-
leon constructed the highroad. Milton
came home that way from his grand
tour, and SO did John Evelyn. The
latter traveller went in fear of his life,
not only expecting avalanches to fall
on him, but being apprehensive lest
bears and wolves should issue from
the caves in the precipices and assail
him. The only actual harm which
happened, however, was that his COM
panion's dog killed goat belonging
to one of the peasants and that heavy
compensation had to be paid-"a pis-
tole," says the diary, ''for the goat and
ten more for attempting to ride away"

of especial value is the Life and Letters

largely with Hays life in the White

Constantinople, Old and New, is a
timely book as no city has been more in
the public eye for the past few months.
The book is profusely illustrated with
photographs, many of which are unique
as the mosques visited by the author
have never before been permitted to be
photographed. 1t will be of especial in

"Dry' Campaign in Canada

A nationwide fight for prohibition has
been started in Canada by the publica-
tion of an appeal to Parliament asking
for the enactment of Federal prohibi-
tion law.
The appeal is signed by leading parlia-
mentarans, lawyers, journalists, public
lists and clergymen, and asks that the
country be placed under prohibition for
the duration OF the war and for a recon-
struction period of three years thereafter,
the question of repeal to be then submit
ted to the people.
A plebiscite. twenty years ago. gave a
majority in favor ofprohibition and since
that time there has been marked in
crease in dry" sentiment. A good part
of the Dominion is already under
prohibition or modified forms of license
andi is expected that some kind OF meas
ure will be brought before the Parla-
ment to test the sentiment of the peoples
1t is likely that restric-
tive legislation will be passed to be oper-
ative at least for the duration of the war.

PURE RICH BLOOD

Bad blood, that is, blood that is
impure or impoverished, thin and
pale,-is responsible for more all
ments than anything else.
1t affects every organ and function.
In some cases it causes catarrh; in
others, dyspepsia; in others, rheuma-
tism; and in still others, weak, tired,
languid feelings and worse troubles.
1t is responsible for rundown
conditions, and is the most common
cause Of disease.
