The Shutdown correspondent seems
to be little anxious for joint debate
with the Three Lakes people by giving
our sentiments in their items. we
wish to inform the correspondent that
our people did not mention about thai
sentiment. Our sentiment is, we re-
ceived the Philippines by conquest
indemnity, and by purchase. But the
correspondents says that the Three Lakes
sentiment was 'got by purchase" II
must have been a dream that occurred
when the Sundownites were. Oh the
road home. Our people are not the
kind to make kick when anything is
won fair by the Shutdown club, but il
is amusing to know that the judges die
not know it was their duty to decide
the question according to the most
points produced.
