Prichards of the United State circuit court today filed his opinion in the celebrated case of Josephus Daniels Mr. Daniels, who Is editor of the Raleigh Newa and Observer, had been fined 82,000 tat contempt of court by District Judge PurnelL Judge Pritchards opinion will he recognized as an authority In regard to the newspaper utterances that might be construed as contempt of court The text of the decision In part follows: The force of public opinion in this country in favor of the freedom of the press baa restrained the free exercise of the power to punish this class of contempts and many Jurisdiction statutes have been enacted depriving the court of tbe power to punish them. It was taken from the Federal courts by pets of congress "of 1831, which act delaw prives those courts of the commontheir power to protect by this process themu'tors, witnesses, officers and selves against the libel of the press, though published and circulated pending the trial of a care therein.

If n Judge charged with the administration of the law la not to be criticised on account of his official conduct. the liberty of tbe press is abridged and the rights of Individuals imperiled. There may be Instances where tbe publication of editorials or other matter In newspapers would bring tbe authority within the limitations at the statute. For Instance, If a newspaper should publish an article concerting a trial which waa being considered by n jury and should send n copy of the paper containing such article to the Jury cr n member thereof, during the progress of the trial for the purpose of influencing them In their dedaion. It would present n question whether such cojiry.et would not be misbebavr in the 1) resen ce of the court, or so near thereto as to obstruct the administration of Justice. It appears that the distinguished Judge who adjudged the petitioner to be in contempt of court the authority granted in the net of 1831, and that the court was without jurisdiction. Such being the case, the Judgement of the court is void and therefore a nullity.
