A Deliberate Lie.

In the Democrat of last week ap
peares communication signed
"Merely Wo man. from which th,
following paragraph is taken:
ut would probably not have a,p
| peared at all had not the editor of the
ADVOCATE very conveniently forgot
ten his editorial obligation, and not
advised "Mr. Man" of the fact that
such an article would appear in his
| columns, but also of HOW it was
| handed in. and thus giving him
the advantage to hasten and
make out statement that was in
complete, and yet self-condemping
and To have him hasten the appear,
ance of it in all three of the county
! papers making his visit to the Elk
County Gazette so late as last Tuesday
as you will observe by that papers
locals; and changing the article in the
paper only enough to give the st.
| Mary's people an extra pat on the
| back for the extra lifts he always ex-
poets and gets from them, for reasons
which l may in due course of time
bring before the public"
The word Liar may not he consid-
cred very polite expression but we
know no word in the English Ian
guage that seems so appropriate at
this time rs that. With malice afore-
thought and deliberately the Democrat
| correspondent tells lie, which she (?l
knows to be Il lie, about the Editor of
this paper in order to make case
against another party. She (?) ac-
cuses us of an unprofessional act
knowing the while that she (?) lies, as
calmly us though an assertion was
positive proof. The duty we owe the
public as a journalist prompts us to al
low the insertion of articles of a pub
lie nature, which we may not sanction
personally, yet believing that fair
discussion of all public questions is for
the general good. This elouch of
"a Woman" knows as we'll as any
one that we have never refused to in
sert communication of public
nature, not even the chickering's of "a
Woman, and she (?) also knows to
a certainty that we have never in
eleven years of newspaper life be-
trayed correspondent. This the
woman knows, aud yet in the face of
this knowledge pens wiful lie sign
ing herself "Merely Il Woman" She
should Lave signed herself "Merely Il
Liar, as she Is. The fact is, pure and
simple, that Superintendent Dixon
had no knowledge, nor suspicion of
the appearance of an article in the
ADVOCATE prior to the issue of the
paper which contained it. Again.
superintendent Dixon has not written
single line in reference to the insti-
tute for this paper but that he signed
his name in full We do not make
this statement because we are taking
up the cudgel for Mr.. Dixon but
simply as an act OF justice. In con-
ciusion we would advise Merely
Woman to stick to the truth ut all
hazards, lie may have it's day but
truth will catch it.

Letter from Mainr soott


st. Marys, Pa, Jan. 2s, 1882.
G. ID. OsTERHoUr,
Pres. Ridgway, G. T. Union.
Dear Sir. and Bro.:-Perhaps Won
would like to hear something of the
cause here.
We commenced our lahors last We'd
nesday, the 25th inst, holding forth
in the Presbyterian Church. Never
was more agreeably surprised than on
that occasion for instead of having a
slim attendance large number
gathered within its walls, a1d II more
attentive audience speaker could not
ask for. Rev. Thompson, Mr.. and
Mrs. Patton, with Others declared, il
was something remarkable in this
place.
AS you know, Thursday evening was
stormy, the snow had gone, it was
rainy and disagreeblo and yet there was
a fine assemblage equally as large as
the previous coming, only with this
notable exception that the Thursday
night audience was almost exclusively
composed of men there being by actual
count oyer 70. Contrary to intention
presented the pledge.
Last night (Friday) we had II splen-
did audience; earnest faces, close at
tention, climaxing with genuine en-
thuasiam with apledge roll of 81; three.
fourths of whom were not of the prot
estent church. 1t is a success beyond
our most sanguine anticipations.
Everybody present was delighted. |
am glad to be able to say there is no
antag0nism to the work. Let us stand
on the broad platform of humanity
battling for the veal of our "brothers"
and then God will recognize the work
and will bless it, and one with the
almighty is always majority.
Pray for 0s, pray for the cause here.
We never forget the Union of Ridg-
way. We pray those there may be on
ingathering of more members. I'll
one stunibies lift such up. Restore,
revive, reinstate to Union, Society,
heart and to God. Let each do his duty
in this work. May God bless you all
is the prayer of our friend
f. Il. SCoTr.
