HOW IT WAS DONE,

j Our remarks last week in az ed
ilorial headed Our Board o.
Health Attacked" were not intend
ed to invite controversy. 1t was
our object TO stale the facts as a
matter of news, and we intended
TO convey nothing but the correct
impression,
We are promptly informed, how
ever, that we have conveyed an
erroneous impression, and that the
"bill of charges" was not a ''peti-
tom We should never deny The
right of the father to name The ba-
by, but when it comes TO the
species a difference OF opinion IS
certainly admissible. This "Bill
of charges concludes with what a
special p,eader would call a pray
er, as follows: ave deem itour
duty 10 call your attention TO these
facts and we hereby respectfully
ask you for an Investigation and
request the rem0cdl Of said BOard.n
Request, petition or Bill, be 1t as
it may, the fathers shall be heard.
The numerously signed document
accompanying this, begins: "We
hereby endorse and recommend
the following named gentlemen to
be appointed a Board of Health
for jackson county" Neither of
these papers express any condi-
tons precedent to removal, but 1t
seems they intended the investiga-
ton to be first had, as the follow
ing explains:
OCEAN SPRINGS, Miss,
Sept. q, 1881
EDITOR DEMoCRAT-STAR:
Referring to your editorial in
The last issue of your paper "Our
Board of Health Attacked" we
beg leave to correct the impression
set forth in said article, which is
erroneous in that the attacking par
ties made specific charges, (which
are we'll founded in fact and on
~ asking for the proper investiga-
ton and for the removal Of the
present Board, if the charges pre-
'ered against them were sustained
by The Investigating committee.
This was not a "petition," but d
Bill of Charges, accompanying
said charges was a document re-
,%ommending certain gentlemen Of
established character, integrity, s
md ability, in whom our people
nave the utmostconfidence, asking
he State Board of Health 10 APP
point these gentlemen as a
3oarl of Health of Jack I
on county in the event Of the re- |
Goval of the present Board. This :
as not a "pelili0n for removal" $

city. recently dissolved. Mr.. Middleton, the re-
firing member, claimed that he had been frozen
out. The public supposed the trouble had been
settled, but suit will be filed in few days that

ments. When the firm diszolved the Individual
accounts of Messrs Middleton & Sharpe were
not settled. but expressly left open for set
element In the petition of the suit about to be
brought, it will be charged that Sharpe was
drawing interest and receiving profits an
amount of capital which he had net really put

thought he had put in. A gentlemen who is
thoroughly familiar with the affairs of the firm
and is a representative of Mr.. Middleton in the
matter, said to-day: ''This transaction was in
this way: Sharpe & Middleton owed H. B.
