(CoutMined from uage three.)
Tell me what lie It is (hat you
vlaitn that liiggs had told yon.
i When I asked him that merniiig
ui the court room to not gltrc the
names of the partly that weri tried
to the editor °* Ida paper for publi
cation he said, well, sir, l will cut
out the uames. or strike out the
names.
As a matter of fact did he give
the names for publication?
Mr. Liiggs iu his testimony has
ouibworu that he made you uo such
promise. tf you ha\e auy reaeous
for stating his oath Is not asgood
as yours ou this point, give them to
me.
question objected to. Objection
sustained and not answered.
Mr. Newkirk, you hail uo other
reason in the world lor hitting
young Higgs than the reasous that
yoa have glveu, that is. that he dts ,
puted your word?
question objected to and sustained
Not answered.
Have you any further reasons to
give for hitttiig young Liiggs titan
the reasons you have given?
No, air; what 1 have told you are
I Plain facts.
Mr. Newkirk, will you now please
state what you had to do with what
wns or what was uot published lu
(the Daily Leader?
I have nothing whatever to' do
with what is published in that pa
per. I simply made a request to tin*
reporter In a friendly manner for
I the protection of the poopV who
I Were tried and fined In the court
house.
Then you do not pretend that you
had any authority whatever to either
] request or to demand of young
Higgs that he should not publish the
names of parties who appeared be
I fore the police court, do you?
I have never made any demands
' of them?
I am not pluying on the word
demand.” If you pretend to have
any authority to make the request
I * hat these tMngs be not published,!
where did you g«*t this authority?
1 was under the impression that f
had a right to mnke a request of
j • he gentleman.
Were you also under the Impres
sion that you hud a right to beat
him If he did not comply with your
request ?
Not answered. Objected to and
, objection sustained.
You say that you were under the
J impression that you had the right to
make tills request, what did you
think this right was bused on?,
Common sense and reason.
Then you thought that common I
sense and season gave Q. R. New
kirk. either individually, or as chief
of police of the city of Blueflcld, au
thority to make u request of the
ffally Leader what they should pub
lish In their paper in regard to the
police court proceedings, and have
that request respected, did you?
I have not made any such request
of the Leader.
I am not playing on words, ?
mean the reporters of the Leader.
N'ow, with this explanation, please
answer this question?
1 did not make the request of the
reporter.
Then did you think you had a
right to have this respected?
Not nnswered. Objected to and
objection sustained.
If you didn’t think this. what |
right had you to approach young
Higgs and call him to account for
falling to respect your request?
Not answered. Objected to and
; objection sustained.
Mr. Newkirk, you didn’t have nnv
right whatever to mnke any such
request, did you?
Not answered. Objected to and
sustained,
Mr. Newkirk, did ou consider that '
you, a„ chief of police of the city of
Minefield had any right, either legal
ly, morally, or otherwise to approach
voting Mlggs as a reporter of the
Dally Deader and make tho request
of him of which you have testified?
I did not approach Mr. Higgs In
