Justice for One.

The editor of Mail requests us to publish his reply to Mr. Potts as matter of justice to himself and we do SO. It will be observed, however, that our cotemporary, though great stickler for justice, does not follow the precepts of the golden rule as closely as he might. During the con troversy over the county printing matter the Mall has sought to con vey the impression that the county officers were in some way "infuenc ed" to give their patronage to the DEMOCRAT, to the detriment of the Mail. We characterized the impu- tation as false and unfair, not only to the DEMOCRAT, but to the county officers as well, all of whom were in. cluded in the transaction. We de handed the proof. The proof has not been produced, nor has the edit or acknowledged the wrong done. Will he do these officers and the DEMOCRAT justice now2 We shall see.
 Editor Democrat: In your issue of two weeks ago yon published an article from MT. Potts claiming to be an an swer to the alleged attack of the Mail upon him. In justice to me please pub- | fish the following, which appeared in the Mail of August in reply to Mir. Potts letter:
 In our last article about Mir. Potts promises of a portion of the county printing to the Mail we dealt with him as lightly as possible, not attacking him but only defending ourselves against the few of his many false and slander- ous charges which had come to our ears. We dealt thus mildly with him because it Is bad policy for democrats to "fall out" and quarrel within the party ranks, and especially as this Is election year. We recognize this as 2 time that we should be as nearly united against our common enemy as can De, for, although our prospects for success are brighter than ever before, yet we have no workers to lose, and wrangles of this sort always create coidness, ano consequently not the full working pow CT of the party is called into action Hoping to avoid this we did not attack him in our last article, notwithstaLd Ing Dotn the Mall anu its cuitoI Hau been numerically abused, but only at tempted defense of the position the Mail lad taken Tn the matter and giv ing our reasons for what we had done and said. This will be borne out by reference to the issue of July l.
 In the above letter Mir. Potts gives vent to debilitatsd feeling that ws hardly thought of him, yet are little surprised at, considering the evident
 nauseous condition of his entire sys
 tem. As we said last week, the above letter from Mir. Potts falls far short ir many respects of what we expected , from him. Outside of the little differ
 ence which gave rise to the present dis
 cussion we had always looked upon hin
 as an honorable, truthful gentleman
 But the above letter is as brimfui o
 misrepresentati and utterly ground less assertions as an egg is of meat. i, We deem 1t necessary at present t' deal with only few of his most pal
 pable untruths, but will at the pr0pel time, If he desires, give him all the in formation he wants.
 In tho first place he states that he ha
