Mr. Taubman and the Register.

The Register. having questioned the truth OF
the following paragraph. we have interviewed
Mr. John Tsubrnan regarding it. The sentence
in question was:-
1T looked mean 20 us, to stab John Taubman
in the back, after all he and his brother had done
for the sheet that struck him.
QUESTIONABLE. Tauoman, did not the Regis
ter, after the difficulty between Mr.. Turner and
you, in which lie grossly insulted you, make al
attack upon you unwarranted by tacts?'
Answer-''Yes, sir; In the following Ian
guaGe, in its issue OF April IL, l was charged
with collecting money NATURALIZATION the in
formation Of the public we would like Tor our
city officials to explain how it happens that the
collector collects poll and dog taxes when snch
taxes have never been levied by the council. 1t
is somewhat singular that such taxes should be
collected without an order OF the council"
Q-"Was the intimation herein contained UNI
true?"
Ayes, sir; as l showed in a card which 1
subsequently published, and which was indors-
ed by Mr.. A. j. Hall, the city attorney :"
Q-''Yon felt aggrIeved by this treatment of
your purity organ 2"
A-''Certainly.'
o-''Dld You not. in consequence OF this act
and others, dcnounce the editor of the Register.
in the presence OF Policeman John and Mr..
Robert HicklIn2'
Ayes, sir; 1 denounced him as q scoun-
drel and a puppy. and told him that, though a
poor man, 1 had a hundred dollars which l
would be willing to put into a decent republican
paper If any person would start one"
In another part of the interview Mr.. Taubman
remarked that the only thing tina had kept him
from chastising the said editor was his insight
icance and utter unwortbiness Of notice.
1t is unnecessary in this county TO state that
Robert aud John Taubman have been leading
republicans. whose influence has been Of bsne-
iii to their party and Its organ.
We have but one interest in the matter. We
never make a statement unless we believe it to
be true; we are rarely mistaken, though liable.
of course, to fall into error. and we desire our
readers to appreciate our sincerity. The other
statements made In tue article from which the
first extract is taken are too noteriously true to
