WOULDN'T LET Us DO lin A FAVOR.
The following letter, although pos.
sibly not intended for publication, may
bc OF interest to some OF our Mobiles
county readers. 1t may settle forever
the question which they have 81 long
pOndcreu over, whether Bob J. W.
Bloom, late Of the Worthington Re
cord, was Il Democrat or Republican.
Here is the letter:
GARNER, Iowa. May ], 1881.
Editor Lake!ield Citizen: My dear
Mr.. Eastwood, Il kind friend sent me !:
copy OF the big Worthington ADVANCE
OF March -, 1854, containing !: gram
from your paper, which gave me Il
wound full sore. 1t said that l was
guilty of running Il republican news
paper. Do you know What you said ?
You could not have said I'LL unEinder
thing OF il lifelong democrat who
prided himself on the ultra democracy
of bis paper. The bones Of mine lnceS-
try would roll over in the tolnbs were
to become all apostate to my faith.
You also said the Record was busted
This, too, was i very cruel untruth
AS to my solvency, refer you to the
people OF WOrthingtCn or this place.
My reason for selling ! gave in my
Goudbye
Hoping vonr future gnesScS will not
be 50 wild. am respectfully yours.
Bob J. W. BLOOM.
Here tn unprincipled beast ackrow-
lodges over his own signature that he
was Democrat publishing Demo
cratic paper and yet putting it before
the public as a Republican sheet.
While here he said to the Democrats
that he was Democrat but lie thought
it would pay better to print Il Repub-
lican paper.'
We had hoped not to notice this dead
skunk any more, but we see that he is
writing letters to editors in this vi
entity and we warn them against linn
once more. Under the same date as
above, he wrote one to the St. james
Journal. The editor did not publish it
but mailed it to us with il request to
''use it as we Saw proper" In this
letter the whipped-out, disgraccd Dude.
Beast says: ITO say that anything
said or done by that monster and his
paler drove me from Wo,thington is
an EXPOSE of abject ignorance of the
premises
We rather think the ADVANCE had
good deal to do with precipitating
his departure. But lie undoubtedly
killed himself, for lie left here with the
reputation Of il most unprincipled. i'm
beetle liar, a profane braggart, Il noisy,
foul .moutlled fool, Il sneak-thief, and
the laughing stock Of the community.
Our brother editors need pay no more
attention to him. They can inquire
here and they will find that we state
the facts. The railroad company re.
fused to give him Il pass, the societies
black-balled him, the band forced him
| out of their organization, the commun-
ity scorned him as IL blackguard and a
liar and he LETT without Il friend except
one or two weak minded ADVANCE
haters
