The Oxford Democrat very properly
chides the Portland Advertiser for speaking
Of dignided statesmen In undiguihed Ian
guage-ss "Bill Frye" ''Jim Blaine.
1t must shock the sensibilities OF these
grave and dignlfied gentlemen to be thus
referred to-. The Portland Advertiser Will
please desist.-- BridgtoR Netcs.
The Ne,cs ibemizsr reads very carelessly.
We did not criticize our Portland evening
exchange. We corrected its error in cred
ting us with au item which did not appear
In our columns, and at the same time
entered mild protest against the very
country habit OF calling men by their first
names or by nick-names. This practice is
discourteous and decidedly provincial. 1t
may be allowable between very close
friends, but even in such case, the parties
will respect each other more If dignified
form OF address be adopted. To illustrate :;
being well acquainted with the editor OF
the Bridgtou Ne,cs, suppose we should adj
dress him as "brother Hen, he would At
once see that the expression was not only
undignined but untrue to nature. Mr..
Shorey is a fully developed man, aud If 1t
were otherwise-why hen couldn't be
our brother any way.
