The statement that the Edmunds Act was applied in "apparently ex-post facto" manner is contrary to the ruling of the court. The assertion was a claim that it was ex-post facto, that claim was found not to have merit. A more appropriate, neutral approach would be to report that the claim was made but denied, rather than to couch it in terms that give rise to the inference that those convicted of violating the law were being persecuted.

Please add David John as one of the people convicted under the Edmunds Act 1887. The Wikipedia page for David John discusses this conviction near the end of the article.
