Excerpt from The Law of Newspaper Libel: With Special Reference to the State of the Law as Defined by the Law The improvements in procedure and practice effected by the Act of last session merit attention, and must be regarded as necessary, proper, and useful changes. Any legislative attempt to prevent vexatious litigation is a gain to the public, and it seems strange how such admitted defects as are now cured by the salutary provisions respecting the consolidation of actions - the giving in as evidence of proofs of previous verdicts obtained in the same cause, and the wholesome reform brought about by the substitution of a judge's order for the fiat of a public prosecutor obtainable on ex parte application, together with those other useful subsidiary changes made by the late Act - could remain so long encumbering the free and fair course of the law in libel actions. These reforms are so recommendable as to suggest some wonder how the unsatisfactorycondition of affairs they have altered could be per mitted so long to continue uncured and unremedied.
