EDITOR REGISTER Sir: Seeing In the issue
of the Astorian of the 18th calculation based
upon the editor's so-asserted views, and not at
all In accordance with the facts and figures in
the cases mentioned, and knowing and seeing
tho tack of the editor of that heaity sheet. feel
impelled to make one more statement as to the
entire transaction of loa1ling the ships Middle
sex and City Camp, examining each assertion
madA by the Ast0rtnn separately, leaving the
readsr to oexamine theseasserfions and for this
purfAse Ihave had the article now undes con-
sideration prinaed at the heaA Of this naE ans-
werl while carefully examine said editor.
The MiddIesex took 56, ,e68 bnsllels Of grain, az
the editor states, and never said she did not,
but merely equalized the two loads, to let the
public see how it stood. So the statement of
the amount of bushels taken by the City Camp
was right, and the editor of the Astos0n Is
right as to the number of bushels on the
| the account and acCruing cost ol that amount
| of grain, and l think 80 done On purpose to
mislead parties interested in shipping grain.
/ Now, Mr.. Astorsaql, come to time-yo1 cannot
mislead as on this point. The taets are, We paid
1 freight, that went ON board the Niiddlesey.
