the erroneous statement in the Old Dominion
Of Monday, that call the newspapers Of the
city will present Geographic reports every
morning, commencing to-day"2
The fact is, the Day Book had been giving
to its readers and the public, kilograms for q
week before the erroneous announcement in
the Old Dominion appeared; and it is be-
cause 1t chose very properly to correct a state
ment which placed it in position with call
the newspapers of the city," which it did not
occupy-and in playful, but not spiteful
manner, to claim credit for its superior enter
prise in this special matter, that it is called
can obscure journal, and badly printed at
that" All this bad taste is not at all to the
point-which is, that the Day Book had been
publishing kilograms for week before the
other papers commenced to do so.
1t may be true that the Old Dominion
stands second to no paper for public enter
prise" But, ION the subject of kilograms, :"
which 'all the newspapers of the city" are
now publishing, the Day Book has shown
that it at least stands first. In this it certain
ly has the positio psdis-the foothold, from
which it can neither be drawn nor driven by
irrelevant issues which always betray the
weak cause Of an adversary. We may be
"an obscure little journal, and badly printed
| at that" in comparison with the notoriety and
Typographical esthetics of the Old Dominion
but the Day Book had been publishing tele-
grams week before the Old Dominion walked
up to the expediency or necessity of follow
ing suit. That's the point.
The Old Dominion says it expects" the
Day Book ".sabsided because it lost too
much" We suspect the Old Dominion "sub-
sided" for the same reason at the expiration
of its '.six weeks" struggle.

Our correcti on of an erroneous statement
which appeared in the Old Dominion on Mon
day, IN which the Day Book was improperly
coupled with the other newspapers of the
city, as to the time Of commencing the pre-
sentation Of Geographic reports, has rled our
contemporary and stimulated splenetic re-
Spouse. The writer informs the public that
"the Post was the first paper suce the war
that commenced taking the press news, and
that in this enterprise the Old Dominion and
Ymginian heartily unted-aud that "the lat
Ter papers continued publishing telegraphic
dispatches last spring for six weeks q or
more after the Day Book subsidized because it
cost too much, we expect" And adds, 1--WE
only give this explanation as a matter of ns-
tice to all"
What, in the name of logic. has all this
pslaSer, this explanation" which is no ex-
PLANTATION at all, to do with our correction of
