THE New Milford Gazette of January

THE New Milford Gazette of January IS, devoted over two columns to extol- ling "home-printed outside papers in general and the Gazette in particular and it also rushed headlong in it's de- nun citation of patent oustide" papers. It made any rash and foolish state ments and even ventured to say that ''most patent outsides are noteworth the paper they are printed on."
 The NEWS being "patent outside" had the presumption on January 23, to reply to the Gazette's attack, therefore on January 25 the Gazette made the an nouncemeut that it proposes to enter the arena with us on February 1 and the struggle will be mental gymnastic, @ Greco Roman struggle of contending intellects and one or both contestants will probably bite the dust.
 The NEWS does not consider the con- test of such importance as the Gazette evidently does, and we mistrust the real object of the Gazette, in prancing around in this warlike manner just at the present time, is to throw wet blanket on the enterprise now starting in it's own town, viz; a patent outside paper, The New Milford Item. If the NEWS is drawn into this discussion of the merits and demerits of home-print- ed outsides and patent outsides, 1t in- tends the discussion shall be a friendly one and hopes the newspaper defects which each can point out to the other, can be remedied and thus the discus sion will prove a benefit to both sides.
 The Gazette says it will be able to print on its outside pages what 1t and other newspapers say concerning the patent outside matter and that the NEWS cannot find room on its inside pages to re-publish the various articles collective ly without emitting much of it's local. An! that's an admission that we really do publish considerable local news. Correct, so please give us one credit mark before you forget it.
 We'll, Brother Bolles, we do not ex. pect to re-publish your long winded compositions. Perhaps you are giving yourself unnecessary trouble ill loading your cannon with so big charge, to fire at an editor of less than years ex- perience. If you were trying to van. quish some one of equal experience with yourself in newspaper work 1t might be necessary, but smaller charge ought to annihilate us, nevertheless seeing you have taken so much trouble tC heavily load the cannon, light the fust and run, for it may possibly burst.
 If you have good luck in firing tha double shotted cannon and we survive the storm of grape and canister, w will give you permission to fire again but remember if we are annihilated tha don't exterminate the army of paten outsides and some of them may storn your works, capture that cannon anC turn its fire against you.
 If the cannon is not quite loadet perhaps you had better save part 0 your ammunition to fire at the NeV Milford Item, patent outside by tn way, that has just ''selected its field and located itself in your own villag and proposes to devote itself to the 1T terests of New Milford.
 Before firing it might also be we to examine the last issues of The Thon aston Express and the Windsor Lock Journal.
