West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1881-12-21

the quietest, lamb-like, even-run-
ming mortals one would meet in
coon's age. We made no low in
situations. The Ne,os was philoso-
phizing," "arguing," &C., In favor
of the whisky business, and we re-
ferred to all contenders for, and de-
tenders of, the legalized crime and
debauchery of the traffic as "whisky
philosophers, logicians," &c. And
what harm, pray? If it be right
and good to defend a cause, why is
it not right and good and proper to
wear the honors and titles of the
cause defended?
When a man argues and tries to
reason in defense of Mormonism, we
call him a Mormon philosopher;
ifhe argues for Infidelity, we call
him an intidel philosopher, and SO,
if for the whisky-traffic, whisky
philosopher Surely this is fair
and honest.
The Neaos frankly comedies it's
own error in admitting the FREE
MANS cause to be good. We are
glad for this little blossom of 'fruit
meet for repentance. Come over,
Brother, fairly and squarely. Come
out from among the apologists for
great crime, and let's strike hands
for prohibition.
NEXT. Here's our own Gazette
making war on us, too. He says:
Brother Ike of the FREEMAN
(don't you see he's mine own fa-
miliar friend p should be more tenn
perate in the use Of language &c.
And so he proceeds to take us to
task for an article in the FREEMAN
some time ago, entitled Illegal
Commissions" (and, confdentially,
Just between US and the reader, he
goes ON just as though he was one
of the convulsed) But he goes on,
and goes on, and getting the article
by heart, lines out the conclusion to
his readers, thus:
1T is said that His Honor, Judge
Stealey, smiled benignly on these
shooting stars, and essayed tocalm
the perturbed elements with oily
applications of moral suasion, but
his words of sweetness were as dew
drops on the swan. All unmoving
and unfelt they drop'd and slept on
downy beds, while the conflict roll
ed and ragged"
And then, starting off with, "this
sounds very poetical at first, pro-
ceeds to deliver us a most anti-pious
lecture for being guilty of construc-
ting such diabolical poetry, but af-
ter rending our fabric and singing
it about "like mad" he finally soft
ems down and closes affectionately
and piously, as follows:
"Bro. Ike, we forgive you this
time; but please never mix stars
and geese, and beds, and dewdrops,
and words, and conflicts, in such a
way, again"
Now, the fact is, we should have
noticed this perturbation of the
Gazette long ago, but we have been
lying awake O nights trying to fig
ure out in our own mind, why I'M
der the sun a goose should complain
of our discoursing poetry on the
swan?
Here comes the Gazette's brother,
the Democrat, at us again, with
compliment and castigation com
bined:
"The FREEMAN, as we have here
tofore stated, is a gentleman; and
all it wants more is an infusion of
some of our liberal and enlarged
views Of things generally at large
the world over. The world needs
