Brownsville has been having Iittl,
tempest in a teapot for the last few
days over the action of the Browns
/ vile Times in coming out for Penney
err for Governor. The editor of tn,
Times says he is not a Democrat lie
cause he supports Pennoyer, but OF
the other hand he supports some o
the Rebui,lican candidates. There ar
.many life long Democrats that do tn
same thing. Again there is scarcel,
an issue of his paper which does no
contain an attack on the protectiv,
policy of the Republican party. Whel
any man supports the Democratic can
aidate and advocates the policy of tn
Democratic party, we believe we ar
right i'm calling him Democrat, an,
we do not believe that the Times cal
be classed in the future as an indepen
dent paper. Some of the leading citi
. zens, looking at it in this light, with
drew their patronage last week an,
had their paper stopped, hence tn
tempest in a teapot. Among the lat
ter the president of the wcolen mill
{ ordered his paper stopped, and also b,
, the consent of a majority of the direct
ors toek the advertisement of the wool
en- mills out. We believe the free trad
: principles of the Democratic party,
, carried out, would stop every woolel
mill in the United States. No one il
! , Brownsville objects to the editor c
| Times running a Democratic paper
, this he has a right to do, but man,
Republicans, believing it to be an inde
pendent aper, have subscribed for ii
, , Upon finding out their mistake the
had the paper stopped. This privileg
5 the editor should grant to his subscrih
ers without any kicking. We had nc
! intended to notice this trouble in on
| communication to the EXPRESS, bu
some individual, with more zeal tha
$ sense, has written it up for the Alban
, Democrat in a sensational manner an
made several statements in regard
w. r. Kirk that are not true. NJ
Kinks connection with the mills con
menced little over a year ago. Whe
