OF the state. Rioters may assemble to-

may conspire TO do nm unlawful act, or
g series of unlawful acts Their purpose
may be to commit felony, or to ocm-
NIT misdemaanor. and they may pro
ceed with arms and with the intent to
use violence to accomplish their designs,
and yet it wouldn't be treason.
III would not be reason for an un-
lawful asscmblnge Of individuals to
come together unless their purpose is
by force and violence to commit some
act or some acts, which. if successful,
will subvert tho government In whole
or part, And il their design Ia to
subvert the government In whole Or
part their proceeding to gather in
force, In such manner as to indicate
their intention to use force, even
though they may not be armed with
deadly weapons, would be a sufficiently
overt act to constitute treason.
| "1'he particular matters alleged in
this indictment and in each count Of it
arc an unlawfuI assemblage in large
numbers Of the defendants with other,
OF similar purpose, being armed for
the purpose of marching from one
place In this state. through an adjon-
ing county, and into two other coun-
tics, and actually proceeding on that
march; the seizing Of wagons, automo-
blles, railroad trains and other things
that they needed to accomplish their
purpose. and in tho county of Logan,

the military forces of the State Of
West Virginia, who had been assem-

court. the Sheriff and the prosecuting
attorney Of that county, stating their
inability to prevent this armed inva-
sion of that county. and the necessity
of the Governor calling on the military
forces of the state to assist them in
the preservation Of peace and order
ut is unfortunate that there are so
few actual adjud ications of these ques-
tions in this county. A great deal Of
law that We have on the subject Of
treason consists of tho opinions Of
| Judges in their charges to grand jurics
and Of the opinion of textbook writer's.
taking these indictments together,
It would appear that the defendants
were stubbornly continuing their oppo-
sition to the military forces of the
sta'e long after, probably not In point
OF time but IN point Of events, they
should have dispersed under any and
all circumstances contemplated by the
statute; that their purpose as ex-

Judge Woods's decision on the mo-
tion to quash read in part:
Treason is an offensc that differs
from all other offenses in that it is an
ohense against the sovereignty OF the
state itself 1t is direct injury, or
an attempt to commit direct injury
to the government Of the state In
no sense is it an ofTcnsc against an
individual. think tho chief character
OF treason is that it is designed to sub
vert the government. either wholly or
IN part. And under our Constitution
treason consists only in lcvying war
against the state and in giving aid
and comfort to its enemies.
$50 far as the allegations Of this
Indictment are concerned. the indict-
ment would have to allcge facts. which,
if true. would consist of levyng war
against the state.
Treason Is Defined
Every violent opposition to the exc
cution of the laws of the state, every
resis lance BY force and violence to the
officers Of the state in the performance
Of their duties is not treason. To CON
stitute levying war against the state
the purpose Of the war, the intent Of
the violence that is offered against the
officers Of the law In the performance
Of their duties. must have treason
able design. II must be design
against the eighty Of the state.
] "lf that were not so, every riot every
insurrection, every resistance to an Of

the chief characteristics Of treason is
that it is All offensc which has It's in
ception in a conspiracy. SO does n riot
and so does al instruction. The de-
sign in riot or instruction, however
