RECIPROCITY with Mexico is said
to stand good chances OF favorable

tariff to pieces with, aud any begin.

Fly Loo and the Veto.

Fly Loo Is q Chinese washerman who
does business on South Clark street.
Clark stleet he calls it. He has been in
this country several years, has amassed
a small fortune, and has the respect and
confidence of his fellow-pigtails. His
views political and otherwise, are their
views, and it was for this reason he was
sought out by Herald reporter.
"What do you think of the veto of the

which stipulated that no Celestial son Of

HUNTINGTON.

BY request of goodly number of our
citizens, write a short item this week,
with a view to correct the inference that
NAV have been drawn from the correspond
ence of last week, concerning the lecture
by Mrs. Rev. Danforth, delivered in the
Baptist Church several weeks ago. The
sentiment expressed was local. and not
that of the community at large. The fact
is, that the lecture was highly appreciated
by great majority, as any one who was
present could not help but have observed.
Her delivery was easy, style energetic, and
becoming ladylike modesty withal.
If all do not see as she does, and do not
agree as to the method of bringing about
the best temperance Legislation, il should
be remembered, that this is a free country.
and everyone has a right to think and
speak what they believe. All liberal,
large-miuded men, have respect for their
opponents opinions, even though they be
directly adverse to their own, as long as
they are presented fairly; and no one who
understands himself will make them a
subject of unfriendly criticism, more es-
pecially when the party criticised is lady.
We are Americans, but this is the second
time the ladies had to take IL, which is
somewhat surprising, as the people of
whom our correspondent is a representa-
tive, pride themselves in chivalry to ladies.
There is not so much objection TO such
criticism il the critic is careful to state that
The is giving private opinion, and is sure
that his ability to criticize is adequate TO the
undertaking. a word of such thoughtless
criticism may cause the innocent one a
great deal of sorrow and pain, whereas if
they knew the facts in the case it would
all be uncalled for.
Another reason for my writing this is,
that 1 have been censured for writing both
of the items referred to, and take this
opportunity to say that when my name or
initials do not appear, it is none of mine. /
write this in all kindness, believing it to
be due to all parties concerned.
