Using committee, to an item in the
LIGHT of Saturday Mr.. Ferguson only
reiterates the statement of the LIGHT
when he says SO much was apportioned

where the unfairness of the matter was

name the Times at the lowest figure, in

called for, because 1t believed II had
been unfairly treated by the committee,
and while it will do all and singular for
the success Of the Volksfest, it will not
continue the advertisement at the price
named by the committee, and will drop
the controversy by dropping the adver-
tlsement.
