We have prepared a careful estimate
Of the amount Of corn raised in Null

dealer, bought three head Of COWS last

in grand style to the view Of nearly all
Of Muldrow. It is one Of the largest
barns in this vicinity.
We are sorry to learn that there are
some people here who take exception
to the way we have Of writing up Null
drow. We are really surprised at the
way they comport themseIve because
they imagine that poor old Muldrow
has been disgraeed by having q few
items concerning events here written
up by some one. They even assume
the wright to dictate to US what We
shall and shall not write. Our pur-
pose has been and will be to furnish
/ our readers with the current events as
they happen whether they relate to
| persons or questions Of general inter
est. We have only written up actual
| events observed from an unprecedented
view and a nonpartisan standpoint,
and have imagined nothing, but des-
cribed conditions as they actually ex-
| ist.
Our opponent, In last weeks issue,
seems to be surprised to be informed
Of the true state Of affection the PEG
! pie have for one another here, which
seems to have been unobserved by
him. But we are not surprised at this
for IS r1le people who cOnf1ne them
selves to one theme are apt to become
narrow in their views and incapable
Of observing facts that conflict with
them
He also seems to be puzzled because
| we expressed our honest opinion in re-
gard to government Of church or state.
1t is not necessary to say more about
this, for recent events have shown that
/ public sentiment here is largely III
favor Of the democratic form.
1--WE have not attacked the Method
! ist church and It only shows snyOne's
extreme sensibiiity, hasty conclusions
and unfair differences to declare that
We haye. The fact that the Methodist
church was organized before We we're
born proves nothing, and is no argu-
ment favorable to MethOdIsm. With the
advancement in knOwledRe and the
constant changes Of the times the
public demand flexible institutions
that allow freedom Of thought and
action, according to the dictates OF
conscience, and not according to the
| discipline"
/ The Sunday school board is not rep
resented by nearly every family here,
for there is only five out Of the twelve
families representing the MuldrOw
/ Sunday school that are represented on
! the board. No one can truthfully say
that We have attacked anyone in IN
becoming or offensive language. Our
creed is to be liberal minded, to give
all the right to their candid opinions.
and TO allow everyone the right to use
their mental faculties in the progress
Of thought and in raising the standard
