EDITOR TRUE NoRTHsRNKR:


Whew! didn't stir up hornets nest by
my item about the Day Spring man, last week !?
Isn't he wratny, though? Wouldn't he kill me
quick if he only could and just knew whom to
strike? But there's where the laugh comes In.
He kind o. thought he did know, but jumping
at conclusions ls what ais him. In his random
shots he often hit the wrong nail on the head,
and that doesn't always have good effect
Besides, he seems to have particular pick at
the ladies, and that does not always predispose
public opinion in favor Of an editor. He says
he knows Its lady" pardon me il do not
use just the terms that he does, for il | can
not clothe my thoughts in decent, respectable
language, will not present them to the pubhc)
land one Of the participants in the affair re-
ferred to-" Mistake number two, as | haven't
been out with the ladies serenading for the last
ten years, though 1t would be q pleasure to me
if l were only little younger. Besides, l
never had a warrant served on me In all my life
and hope never shall. Therefore l did not
write the article because was at all interested
in the matter, save as am always champion
of truth and right, and do not believe In clrcu-
latipg falsehood to the injury Of our own soci-
ETY. in the eyes OF strangers, even though 1t be
to fill up the starving columns OF two sheeted
newspaper or to advertise ones own o1o I'M
meaning wit.
When he refers to my masculine countenance
| cannot deny the charge, though, perhaps,
that is more owing to the cut Of my hair and
clothes than anything nature has done for me.
But be that as it may. as an American citizen,
1 feel proud of the accusation
Again. be seems to feel very much hurt be-
cause did not send my article to him for pub
LEGATION. AS an apology, would say that do
not patronize the Day Spring and do the TRUE
NoRTHERNER, being governed in the selection
OF my county paper by the same motives that 1
am In any others, namely: desire to get the
greatest amount OF reading, news and enter
tainment always having an eye to Its tone,
principles and purity for the amount of money
invested. Moreover, l did not believe that
printer who would publish an article intended
to convey such false impressions about his own
village folks would be generous enough to be
corrected in his own columns and just here

he did 1t from selfish motive.
do not wish to weary your patience nor
would disgrace your paper enough to answer
him in his own 4" COIN" neither shall l reply to
any more articles, Of whatever style or stamp,
and will merely add that IL he has an eye to
future success In running one-horse country
paper. he had better get Farmer Sutton to
write his locals as we'll az editorials, for per-
haps he would put on little more style and
not offend quite so many refined people by
