rrsHER's REJorNDER TO THE ABOVE.
lola, Kansas, October p, 1884.
J. G. GORDON.
Dear Sir. In. reply to your favor Of
the 2lst instant.
For more than year you have pri-
vately slandered me. Some months
ago YOU published an anonymous cir
cHlar. which you scattered through
the streets of lola in the night time,
attacking my professional character.
To all such attacks I paid no heed.
About two weeks ago, however, while
absent from the state on private BUSH
ness, / was handed telegram saying
that you were again busy circulating
slanderOus reports concerning my per-
sonal and official conduct; that you
had asserted that would never come
back to answer your charges; that you
had said in a speech before the con-
vention that nominated you, that you
expected to make this campaign on
personal issues. Returning home at
once to meet these charges, found
that YOU had made them in the city of
lola, not in any public speech to which
I could reply, but by personal CONVEX
ing that 1t would be simply impOssi-
BILE for me to follow and refute attacks
made in this way, I courteously re-
Quested you to meet ME in joint dis
cussion of the issues in this campaign,
personal and political. This request
you decline to grant on the ground
that am not candidate, adding that
you are ready and willing to enter into
discussion with Mr.. Amos. / have
not had an opportunity Of seeing or
communicating with Mr.. Amos, since
receiving your letter, and cannot tell
what course he will pursue. can only
say, that If he consents to q discussion
with you it will not be at my request.
While you alone forced the personal
issue in this campaign, you did 1t, not
by attacking the personal or official
character of Mr.. Amos, but by charg-
ing official malfeasance against me as
his deputy. insist then that I have
a right to defend my character Ia per-
son against your assaults.
You say that you have generously
divided the time at your own meetings
in the county with me. For such d.
vision of time am indebted, not to
your generosity, but to the demand on
the part of the people for fair play. /
do not complain, however, of my
treatment in this regard. I am willing
to abide the verdict where both of US
have been heard. All I have asked is
that here in lola, where we both live,
you should publicly state what you
have privately circulated against me,
and that should have an opportuni-
ty to publicly refute these charges.
That you decline to grant what seems
to me SO reasonable a request, I ex-
oeedingly regret.
Yours, very respectfully,
J. H. FISHER.

NIX. GoRDoN's REPLY.

lola, Kansas, October q, 1884.
j. H. FISHER.
Dear Sir: Your favor of the 18th
instant duly received and contents no.
ted. In reply to the propositions
therein contained would respectfully
say, that inasmuch as you are not q
candidate for any office in this cam.
paign and as there is no precedent
that will justify me in granting the re-
guest you make, joint discussions are
held between opposing candidates
alone, and to do this, am ready and
willing. Mr.. Amos needs only to in
dictate his desire and will cheerfulIy
comply with his request; for the reason
that he alone is responsible and must
answer to the people for his, as well as
your, official acts. No one has denied
you the right to be heard i'm your own
defense or to present your explanation
OF the charges of official corruption. On
the contrary / have withstood your in
reference in my meetings and have
generally divided time with you in all
of them thus far addressed, when in
fact you were an intruder. 1 have
done this while Mr.. Amos was holding
his meetings elsewhere in the county
and making charges of personal and
official misconduct on my part. Thus
the transparent scheme concocted by
Mr.. Amos and yourself is made plain
in this, that while the public attention
Is directed to a joint discussion between
you mot candidate) and myself. Mr..
Amos Is making a diligent canvass
throughout the county without any in
reverence from such as are not candi-
dates. However ungenerous this
scheme assure you, sir, will not be
entrapped by it. In all INV addresses
and communications to the people to
establish official corruption have
simply stated facts from the records
which, with your official acts. should
be known by the whole people. Ifyou
nope by any process of argument or
reasoning to explain them ayay. there
is nothing to prevent you from SO do
ing, and certainly have no objections
toyour holding meetings at lola or else
where and attempting this herculean
task. My argument is simply a pre-
sentation of the record and official acts
of Mr.. Amos administration which
are open to all the people. You NAV
proceed at your own convenience to-
answer it. The people are the jury
now in session. and / viii cheerfuliy
abide their verdict to be recorded on
the 4th day of November, 1884. In the
meantime, keep good natured, explain
ali you can and trust to luck for the
balance. Yours respectfully,
J. c. GORDON.
