Hearst Injunction
In Mount Vernon
Continued by Court

Justice Donnelly in the Supreme
Court yesterday continued a temporary
injunction restraining Mayor Brush
the Common Council and the Chief Of
Police of Mount Vernon from enforcing
an ordinance adopted on August 81
making it necessary for all ncwsdealcrs
in that city to obtain a license from
the Chief of Police. The injunction
proceedings were brought by the Star
Company, publishers Of Hearst's
Evening journal" and "American."
The new ordinance gives the Mount
Vernon officials authority to pass on a
list Of newspapers and periodicals
which an applicant intends to sell and
gives them power to revoke a license
at any time if the holder is proved to
be not of proper character. The ac.
was regarded as a further effort by
the people Of Mount Vernon to make
impossible the sale of Hearst and Ger
man language newspapers.
Justice DOnnelly expressed the fear
that the new ordinance contravened the
organic law guaranteeing the freedom
of the press

We turn and meet with them, whose

We NAV forget the things we hold

On Rheims Cathedral; where it's bat

On broken paves in uncouth shad-

Placards ATTACKING
The Tribune Torn
DolUn in Elizabeth

ELIZABETH, N. j., Sept. 11.-The
Elizabeth police will be on the lookou,
for Hearst agents tonight. with orders
to arrest all persons caught violating
the law in posting placards attacking
The New York Tribune.
Hearst emlsSaries, working undeY
cover of darkness, flooded this city
with such placards Monday night.
Elizabeth citizens on the way to work
yesterday morning saw the pacards
on lampposts, public buildings, trolley
poles and other places, where it is
against city ordinance to post adver-
tisements.
The posters attacking The Tribune
did not remain up long. Most of them
were torn down by those citizens who
have been leaders in the local fight to
Danish all newspapers published in the
German language or published by Will
lam Randolph Hearst.
What placards the citizens missed
the police destroyed.
Police Chief Mulcahy this after
noon instructed police not only to tear
down any future placards found posted
IN violation of the law, but also to ar
rest any person discovered posting
them.
Members Of the Elizabeth Chapter Of
the Sons of the American Revolution
performed the greater part of the task
OF removing the placards posted BY the
Hearst agents after dark Monday night
The Elizabeth Chapter last June
passed resolution branding Hearst
newspapers as un-American and term
ing the purchase of such newspaper
as q highly unpatriotic act.
Harry Brewer. head of the local
chapter, to-day wrote Mayor Victor
Mravlag strong letter urging that city
officials use every means within their
power to prevent any further posting
of placards attacking The Tribune. Mr..
Brewer demanded that any Hearst
agents caught violating the law in this
respect be punished to the limit of the
ordinance penalty.
