The Burlington Clipper, accompany
ing the remark with dish of black
guardism says, "The editor of the SIF-
TER has long had a personal grudge
against Col. Fuller" The editor of
the Clipper lied when he penned that
sentence and the SITTER deies him to
state his case and present his proofs.
And further it is the opinion of the
SITTER that the little dog barking at
the moon is preferable to the misera-
BILE, sneaking cur whose presence alone
would cause that luminary to hide its
face behind the nearest cloud to avoid
the sight of the pitiable object From
some cause or other Fullerism and
blackguardism seem to go hand in hand
and when newspaper espouses the
former, either for cash in hand; or the
result of some "dicker" or expected OF
promised "pull," the latter immediate
ly assumes control. While it is dis
tasteful to the SITTER to carp at and
find fault with its contemporaries il
these Fuller blackguards and bullies
desire it it can fight them with the
same vigor it has the political shams
and frauds. So come on, gentlemen,
