(Tampa Tribune) A notvhle celebration of the 200th anniversary of the freedom of the press in North America will be held at historic East Chester Church, N. Y., on October 28. It was on the green of that church, known as St. Paul’s East Chester.Church, that an election was held in 1733 which led to the famous trial of John Peter Zen- ger, at which Andrew Hamilton proclaim- ed and permanently established the Ameri- ean doctrine of freedom of the press. The election forming the basis for the freedom of the press celebration was that of Lewis Moris as member of the Assembly. He had been displaced. as Chief Justice of the State Supreme Court by William 58. Cosby, Governor of the Province of New York, because he had ruled in favor of Rip Van Dam in a suit brought by Cosby. Morris ran for the Assembly in West- chester against William Foster and defeat- ed him by a vote of 213 to 151, not count- ing a Quaker vote of’38 for Morvis which was ruled out by the opposition because members of this sect would not take their election oaths in the prescribed form, Peter Zenger reported the event for The New York Weekly.Gazette, only.news- paper published in New York at that time, but the management refused to print his‘ account because of its references to Gov- ernor Cosby. Therepon Zenger started his own paper, the first liberal newspaper in New York, The New York Weekly Jour- nal, in which he printed what he pleased and enjoyed a wide circulation, Finally Cosby had Zenger jailed on an information charging him with libel. not- ably in the report of the East Chester elec- tion. Cosdy disbarred two lawyers who had attemoze1 1:0 appear for Zenger, and then Andrew Hamilton of Philadelphia, dean of the American bar, was prevailed upon to take up the printer's cause. Chief Justice De Lancey, an agent of Goshy, who presided over the Zenger trial, denied Hamilton his demand that the Gov- ernor be called upon to\ prove the alleged libels, “The greater the ‘ruth,’ said De Lancey, “the greater the libel.’”’ But Ham- ilton, in a dramatic plea to the jury, con- yinced them of his point of view, and Zen- | ger was freed. "I have no doubt,” ‘said Hamilton to the jury, “but your upright conduct in this day will not only entitle you to the love and- eatoem of your fellow-citizens,, but every man who prefers freedom to slavery will bless and honor you as men who have baf- fled the attempts of tyranny, and, by an impartial and incorrupt verdict, have laid a noble foundation for securing to our- selves, our posterity, and our neighbors that to which nature and the laws of our coun- try have given us a right—the liberty of both exposing and opposing arbitrary power in these parts of the world at least by speaking and writing truth,” FIGHT ALIMONY RACKET Several Chicago ‘men, who apparently suffer from the pangs of alimony, are seek-; ing to promote a new society, to be known’ as the Alimony Club of America. Judging, from its: professed aims, it might be called* an anti-alimony club. ebony? ‘ Anyway, among its objects, as stated: in the articles of incorporation, is this: .,, "Te protect men and society geherally against the so-called modern woman“who considers marriage a mere step incident to a suit for divorce, that she may engage in the business of collecting alimony.” If the new organization could guar- antee that this object was possible of at- tainment there would probably be a grand rush of alimony victims eager to enroll un- der its banner. MARK TWAIN'S REPLY (Labor) While Mark Twain was editor of 3 Missouri paper ‘a subscriber wrote to him saying he had found a spider-in his paper and asking Mark whether this was a sign of good luck or bad. The following was the reply: “Old Subseriber: Finding a spider in your paper was neither good luck nor bad luck for yop. The spider was merely looking over your paper to see which mer- ehant is not advertising, so that he can go to that store, spin his web across the door and lead a life of undisturbed peace ever afterward.” If the nudist fad ever becomes general, Florida will have a lot of winter visitors from the north every year. better | his duties He allegedd« THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Seccccscecsccoecovocsccosesscoorcucseccescnccess < POISE Oe Seri Solution of Yegterdpy’e Puzzle 6.
