TIE Morning News is making great
struggle TO convict q worthy, honest,
and honorable man in SUSSEX Of malfeas-
ance in office. Now, the reason for this,
SO far as any reason is apparent, seems
to be that the News is engaged in assist
ing the Republican machine in Sussex to
manufacture campaign material. In
order to do this not very creditable
work the News has found it neces-
sary to attempt to prosecute a
man. Mr.. e. B. Mitchell, who enjoys the
esteem and good will OF his neighbors Of
sil grades, shades and conditions Of
breaking the law by selling timber to the
county Of which he was an officer. Our
correspondent at Georgetown pointed ont
the mistake Of the News and gave a
simple and adequate explanation and ex-
onoration Of Mr.. Mitchell's transactions
But the News, all too anxious seemingly
to convict, restates the case to suit itself
in order to show that Mr.
Mitchell must be guilty. Mr.. Mitchell
came into the possession Of land on which
the timber had been sold to the county
by the previous owner. Through the
wood-chopper, who was TO enjoy the
chief benefit of the existing contract,
the timber was cut aud delivered TO the
county. The News restates the whole
story aud contradicts our correspondent
in order to fasten petty infrac-
tion Of the Law at best.
upon msn whose charao-
ter and standing are too good and
too respectable to be impeached. Even
the law recognizes a man innocent until
he is proven to be guilty. The News is
not In earnest in this, 1t is simply writ
ing for buncombe. Its position is clearly
untenable and disingenuous for every
body knows that Mr.. Mitchell is an up.
right man.

"offers a premium for dependency and
makes all pension laws stencil in the

words, well.said, timely aud trenchant.
The Grand Army men should meet and
send such words as these ringing to
Washington from all over the land. This
incalculable robbery If stopped would be
another glorious service for them. Every
soldier who Is wounded or incapacitated

upon the pension system to pay 50 much

fend itself for saying it. II we should
say anything wrong we shall take plea
sure in 3 straightforward, manly apology
for it. If what we say does not
meet the views of these contem-
poraries, they have the privilege Of
pointing out the errors. We do not care
for personal alterations. Whatever
opinion these editors may entertain Of
themselves, they do not seem to us
great enough or engaged in enterprises
important enough to make discussion
Of their personal characteristics either
interesting or necessary. They exagger-
ate their own Importance when they ex-
pect the EVENING JOURNAL to consider
that their ugly. irrelevant and ill-tem-
pered personal abuse needs an
answer in kind. The editors who
fracture good manners belittle themselves
and make reply even more unneces-
sary than il they had attempted to argue
