alluded to it editorially. we do the senior
editor of that paper. DR.. Drake, only an act
of justice by publishing what he says. by
way of apology, for such . thing creeping
into his columns:
"A puff Of liquor shop crept into
the local columns Of our last weeks issue,
without the knowledge of the Senior Edi.
tor. and contrary to our settled convictions
Of duty not to countenance directly or indi-
rectly such institutions; we therefore make
an apology for the inadvertance. We need
money badly. but We must be pushed 20 the
extremity of starvation before we could be
induced. even for liberal pay. to puff an
establishment where drunkards are manu-
featured. and where the direst woes that
attic. society have their origin. Our senti-
ments are to well known in this community
to admit OF doubt rs too our ST. csrity on
this point" Broad Are, Jan. l9.
