' The account of the respite of Sang Armor and ths attendant circhmstan ces cea created creates a a feaifcl leainst furore lurone in nr Craw- UTaw fordville. Scarcely bad the paper been e—tto,«»— oi opmroo tango** on matter b w to bo given. Some said we had pursued the right course, others that we were discreet. As to that the evidence dneed In the preliminary trial viii* m. will dicato. We-look at it in a calm consiat-ratajgL considerate wav It it is m the the dntv uut\ of of a ncwspripcj^^BBte facts as they are_ . ,, t * a. x t should th#fTOrr the l>#3st of men they must be stated. This is the bon odea proMoce Oa the press. It is a broad pnn eiple. The freedom of speech accorded . to ^ ever> citizen ... demands , ,, .. hat . on .. a.t , occasioni and Tag at all times he speak bis ! nmd w . , , to . JUi* . carefully, r n considerate- ... ly, with justice towards all, malice towards none. This wai onr inten¬ tion and our desire when the few com¬ ments we made were written. We liad calmly thoughts of the premises embraced. That Judge Pottle should have acted as lie did act we thought unjustifiable. We stated then and we state again that he may have bad cause sufficient. The opinion Ad¬ vanced, on a previous arrest hf Aleck Stevens, by Judge Pottle was the rea asw he did not incarcerate him in our own jail was that he was a son-in-law of Sheriff Googer. But this last time be knew 1 letter. He knew that Billy Ste¬ vens was Googer’s son-in-law Aleck who not. There 1 rould have been no such excuse this time on that ground. What then, we ask, was the ground V Was the judge afraid that tlie jail would be broken into and the prisoners escape ? Certainly not. For had not young Stevens again and again been warned that these same detectives were looking for him ? Had he not time and again said he defied them ? Had he not walked our streets without making one single effort to escape ? We do not propose to vindicate his cause. If he be guilty let liim suffer as the guilty should ; if he be innocentg let redress by made to a ruiuedfortuhe, to tbe torn and wounded heart of a loving mother. Let the principle of justice be vindicated, but do not let us forget tbe fact that justice should not always be on the side of the State and tbe administrators ot the law. A man accused of any crime should have a fair and an impartial trial. The law demands it, and justice should award it. The course pursued in this matter is an inault to our county. Our people want justice done. But the course pursued they object to. Have we not as intelligent, as upright men as Warren can boast ? We have. Why then take these parties away ? We await an explanation. Tlie people are indignant and The Democrat will staid firm with them. Wo think that n ta.«*tan-tai«..«miir;tfu. rights of that county are to be trampled under foot. Let us change the name, and call it Warren. Let our court-house tie in Warren ton and let I Judge Bottle, with all his conception of the law, change it. IVe do Dot want any representatives in the Legis- : lature. We do not want anything but ' our rights, and these rights we will have Therp wms no pvfnv “ for fb " ; s 1 enor error.
