EDITOR COURIER: Your issue of
July 22nd, 1885, contained an arti-
Gle which has annoyed me very
much, and l think you are guilty of
disturbing the peace-that is, my
peace. You said you had a number
of subscription accounts that you
would offer to the highest bidder, il
not paid soon. Now is not that dis
turbing my peace? But in this case
I will plead guilty; but don't say
anything about it, for it might raise
"sheol' with me if some other news
publishers should get hold Of it.
Enclosed please find five dollars, for
which give me credit, and the bal.
ance I will pay you. Ies-you-
but-well, let that go. Now, boys.
I am satisfied that there are about
one hundred and fifty in the same

do as / have done, pay up. Or near.
ly so, and l don't think the good
natured editor will expose us.

The Vermillion Plain Talk has
several times alluded to our base
ball club in a manner that would
lead the public to believe that they
were brags and blusterers more than
players-in other words it has char
ged our club Of claiming the cham
pionship of this part of the world.
Now the facts are, our boys have
never, either publicly or privately
claimed anything as ball players.
They have played several friendly
games with the Vermillion club, and
so far as we can learn, the good feel
ing between the two clubs have not
been disturbed as has been several
times intimated by Plain Talk. Our
club has always treated the Vermil-
lion club and the people of Vermil-
lion with respect and courtesy, and
no complaint is made in regard to
their treatment of us. The whole
trouble seems to lie in the wild i'm
aginings of the Plain Talk editor.
