THE SHOOTING OF FAIRALL.
A Sharp and Manly Letter.

The Davenport Gazette ha- ing aspersed
the motives of Hon John p. Irish {editor
of the Iowa City DAILY Press in his report
OF the Fairal shooting affair he writes the
following sharp and manly letter:
Iowa CRY. January 18th, 1876,
Editor Gazette:-ln the Gazette of this
morning appears mention of the Fairall
scandal, accompanied by parts of a letter
written you. | have no harsh criticism
for the misstatement of facts by his rela-
tive, since charity must excuse and human
ity admire the brotherhood which refuses
to be duled by crime and clings closer in
disgrace. but must ask PERMISSION to cor
rect an impression derivable from his mis-
statement and your comments.
The stock is rot Fairalfs, but in law be-
longs to his wife, for the support of her
children, whom he has abandoned. She
was instructed to this effect by her attor-
neys, and, | believe, by Judge Ruthrock.
IF it were his and he had legal rights, what
need he to go at midnight?
He deliberately fred once at his son aud
twice at his brother-in-law before shot
was returned This | have from his men
and from Mr.. Workman. His wound is a
mere scratch. He was not lett exhausted
on the ground, but walked to a neighbours
and came to town.
Finally you cast discredit upon the ac-
count of the affray in my paper because |
arr "a bitter enemy of Fairall for political
reasons" Be assured sir. that the half
has not been told, ana cannot be told in a
newspaper, concerning him. The only
political controversy between US was caus-
ed by my firmly aud successfully resisting
his denomination to the senate by my
party, and had he been nominated. in the
interest OF political decency should have
striven, in de6nancc OF party discipline,
have beaten him. | hope the Gaz@tte is
independent enough to applaud my de-
termination.
With the decent people of this commun
lily opinion is all one way, and. outside OF
his brothers, he finds mis- only defenders
among the dangerous and criminal class
es, who know no sacredness in marriage
VOWS; no cleauness in light living; nc
honor in good example.

urned out to be only the end of Mr.
