A CARD.

Mr.. Editor:-Will you permit
me to say a word more? We &C.
cord to every one the right to his
opinions, and to express them
without accusing him of being
dishonest in his motives, of being
in clique with, or hired by the
trusts, or of making false state
ments for his own selfish motives,
as Moss Back insinuated in his
article last week. And while we
have no harsh words for any
body, we do say that it is un'
gentlemanly and cowardly for
any one to malign the motives or
character of another without
having the manhood to attach
his own name to his maliging ar
ticle. Let Moss Back unmask
himself as a gentleman, that |
may know to whom l am talking.
Respectfully,
G. W. Alcorn.

FOR FAIR PLAY.

A reader at Watervalley, Ran
dolph county, tells Of democrat
from Mammoth Spring coming
into his township and trying to
get a republican to work among
his republican friends and carry
the township for Hon, David L.
King. We understand the man
who is 80 jealous in Kings cause
is lawyer Geo. Black, who, no
doubt, a great number of our
readers have the fond pleasure of
knowing. The RECORD is not
fighting Herrn's battles, but we
learn that many things not wholly
clean are being resorted to and
that many tales are being circu-
lated in Randolph county to bring
about his defeat, and we endorse
no such politics, 1t seems 10 us
that it comes with poor grace,
after Mr.. Herrn has spent four
weeks in Randolph county among
the voters, after he has met Mr..
King on the stump over the coun-
ty, and after he has left the coun-
ty, for Mr.. Kings friends to then
begin TO start their tales and buy
up the republicans. We repeat
that such methods come with poor
grace, moro so considering tho
fact that Mr.. Herrn had canvassed
and left the county.
