THE MISLEADING CYPRESS

The Whatcom Express, generally
quite fair in its uttcrances, purposely
attempts to mislead its readers in the
following paragraph, printed in the
Express Of last Saturday. Under the
heading "Haye Strings On Them, "
the Express says:
The Fairhavcn HERALD says that Phi.
ArmOur. the great pork packer, aud MS
friends only came TO New Nhatcum
through he courtesy OF the Fai,havcn
Chamber OF Commerce. This Is indeed
refreshing to the nOrtheudcrs, ana ihey
are under everlasting obligations 10 Inc
chamber for allowing the gentlemen 70
come. This is "a her rough on the mil
Hunaires We have written TO Phil sug-
rc, ting that h. buy that chamber before
ID gets too high priced, some day he may
want 20 20 % ferndale, or some other ~
land seaport and the fairhaven Chamber
10 ummerce might say we have slrlng
un you' and yon cannot 90. MD " IN th'
bud
Anyone reading this paragraph
alone would be led 10 understand that
the HERALD had voluntarily come to
the front to say, that but for the Fair
haven Chamber of Commerce the
Armour party would not have been in
New Whatcom, thus placing this
journal in tho attitude Of gratuitously
slyiug something calculated to create
an uupledsantness. The matter came
about through a HERALD paragraph
which mentioned the fact that the
Nhatcum correspondent Of the Seattle
Po>t-lntelligcnccr bad sent a telegram
tn the P.-I. speaking Of the visit OF the
Armour party 20 Whatcom, aud word
ing 10 to imply that the party had not
visited lairhayen, when the truth
was that Mr.. Armour and his friends
came To Fairhaycn in their private
ear, drove 10 the Hotel Ftirhaven, aud
from thence, by the courtesy and hos
piHlity OF the Fairhaycn Chamber OF
Commerce, were taken in carriages o.
drive about Farhaven and theme,
through Nhatcom and to the station
on the tide fats, where the private cal
overlook them and they were conveyed
on their way uorthward over tn,
Great Northern.
To call attention TO such facts
urged thereto by the Whatcom CORES
pondents purposcd oversight and
intended slight Of this city, is, o
course, an attack on Nhatcoln &C
cordng to the views Of some What
com people. BY just such means
great many persons 10 Whatcom hay'
been lead TO believe heretofore, tina
the HERALD is continually scckin
and INDUCING opportunities to re
fleet upon Whatcom, when the col
truth is, and the bound files OF Tn
HERALD will prove, that this journa
has never uttered harsh word q
Whatcom or anyone interested there
except in reply TO some sneer, rcfleC
ton, misrepresentation or other ur
fair utterance OF the Whatcom pres.
concerning Fairhaven or some OF thi
city's interests.
AS TO the Post-fntelligencer's col
respondent in this connection, IN
HERALD has been informed That h
purposely avoids mentioning Fai
haven in these matters, because Fai
haven once requested the P.-l.
