Mr.. ]. r. McEachin, of Laurinburg.
writes that communication published
in the Caucasian over the signature of
one "W. C. Dixon" was a gross SANDER
upon the people of that town. This no
one doubts. But we can not agree with
Mr. McEachin that it is calculated TO
east a stigma" upon the community.
Stigmas do not stick to the good people
Of Laurinburg, as shown by their de-
termination to be rid of negro rule in
the State Anonymous scribblers in
the Caucasian cast a stigma on nothing
except the paper that publishes the silly
canards. What Dixon described as a
"blood-curdling scene" turns out to have
been Il harmless incident, and Dixon
turns out to be blood-curdling liar.
Let it go at that.
