Messrs Miller g. Gibson
Certain editorials have appeared in
your paper since left, which require a
word Of reply from me. You pretend
that you do not understand why left you,
/ complained to yon before the cleo
ton that | would have to- withdraw, un-
less could have theyhii and free use of
your exchanges This you promised |
should have, and then, without saying
ono word to me, notified the post master
not to let me have them, This you dare
not deny. You say you told me to make
selections. So you did, and | made them,
and you would not publish them but in
stead, published long stories from the
eastern papers What said about die
tation and controlhad no reference to you;
and the insinuation that you refused to
publish spiteful articles Of mine, is not
true.
will explain the kind Of dictation to
which | referred. AT the Marsh term of
our court, certain furnace companies en-
ployed lawyer to resist the collection of
all claims against them. This they had a
perfect right to do. There we're thirty
seven Of these cases at that time. In CIV
ing the proceedings of court, | merely re-
ferred to these cases incidentally, and one
of the furnace men rushed into the Office
and compelled you to take out the oifens-
i've article, while another stopped his pa
per and several complained about it.
Many Of these furnace owners were roll
:, ing III aGluence, clothed in purple and
: fine linuen, and faring sumptuously every
Pday, while the poor men who had by their
toll produced this wealth fer them saw
their own property put up blythe constable,
and thoir wives and children suffering
for the very necessities of life, while de-
/ priyed Of their honest dues. | thought
that mon who intended to work for fur
Nace companies ought TO know where they
\ lht expect TO get their pay, and where
Ieiey might expect to be cheated out Of it,
h You and your unfortunate friend con-
demned me for what said IN reference
b the Crabtree cane, and you think a
ormers-LielN@s pm this subject was at
0ndedby bad consequences, because your
unfortunate frienl' stopped his paper.
What | said in reference to this case was
aietly true, ard tbe records will bear me
n. f
u say ! wished to edit for private
N, This was not true, but only the re-
iiection of your own ruling motive, as !
7 will show you. NV partner and myself
were feed for the Sate in the Keenan,
case, and yot ! expressed the opinion that
Keenan, was insane, and for 80 doing we
camo near being discharged by our eli.
bnts.

Ehdidates for office, | spoke of Johr

i So anxious were you to elect oul

Nay, in effect, that what said about
