Qlaud Morris came home from
California last week.
The present terrn of Court was
noticeable from the point of view
that E. J. II. Roy, Editor of the
Spanish American was indicted
on two charges. The first on
charges preferred by B. G. Tyler
the MANAGKR-IN-CHIEF of
the Tyler Estate, and the second
Criminal Libel, account of an art
icle published some three months
ago, in mutters affecting the
death and. finding of the body of
Lucks Vigil, who was presumably
murdered by Abel Flores.
The first indictment is signill
.cant, owing to the. fact it has
been Impossible to get mi ac
counting from 15. G. Tyler of
large sums of the funds of the
Estate that came into his hands
E. J. H. Roy was 11 nuble to fur
nish a complete report and upon
those grounus, Tyler, Hughes
and Ward procured an indict
uient. At the present stage of the
matter there were absolutely no
grounds for an indictment on
an embezzlement charge, and if
there were, the Manoger-inChief,

Estate, should have been shoul

former administrator Is ready to
show the world where he is at

Tne Criminal Libel matter was
insisted upon by one O. A. Lar
rozolo. Who is Larrozoio?

Mexico Press is to be curtaiieu,
what are we progressives going
to do under the present dominant
power the SUnd-Pattcrs. This
will be a test case and probably
think than Larrazolo has select

The Spanish American is in no
wiy cowed down by all of the
doings, and feels that '.t will enter
the fray more iluterinincd than
ever. Keep a Coming.
