Tbe recent exhibition of foot pad metboda
Id lb la city baa alar ted ^controversy between <
several member* of tbe at ale press concerning
tbe reaponalbllly of an editor for articles
pobltatied in bla paper. Tbe majority ol tbe
newspapers take tbe itronnd ibat ao edlior
boaid be cleared of all reeponalbillly If be i
(ITea tbe name of a reputable rltiaeo aa tbe
anlborofau objectionable article pabllabed
toy blm.
We Uke tbe oppoalte view. We believe
Ibat an editor la responsible lor every article
bepnbllabae wbetber be (Ives the name of
ib? *mbor or oot. i ds iaw uu m? >/?> >.,
* prrtiy aale guide to follow. Hotb tbe writer
and tbe pnbilaber of a llbelloua article are
reapooalble. Id fact tbe publfaber aboultl

article I* not pabllabed It fall* flat -IU elatemenu

I r. for Inalance, tbe author of tba recent NewDairy
letter bad poatad It in aome public
place In Nen berry, then be and be alone
woo Id have been reapooalble, but tba moment
tba Greanvllle Newa pabllabed It, It
became legally reapooalble for every atalaraeot
it contained. If Jltf eonaalna anytblog
llbelloua. Tbe Newa la nnqneatlonably liable,
civilly or criminally
Koowlng tbla, Uie editor of Tbe Oreanvllle
Newa did not rely upon tbe author of tbe
Newberry laltar to ableld blm, eltber from
legal reaponalblllty or peraonal account*,
blllty. It tbe author bad volunteered to
glva out hi* name and Ibe truth of any of tbe
atelementa In tbe article bad been queetloned.

i tbeautborabIpof.be Newberry letter. Tbla
la not a complex matter; It 1* absolutely
plain. Wben a newspaper publlabea an article
wllb or without tne name of tbe autbor
It la legally reapooalble for It, and being It,
gaily reaponalble, the editor la peraooally re>

Under tba condltlona of modern clvlltxa
lion a party woo believed be bad beau anJuatiy
