Mr.. Stephens Answer.

GRANGEvILLE, March %, 1901.
EpIrok FREE Press Please al
low me space to answer Mr.. Bishop
and Mr.. Browns attack on my
former letter and myself, published
BY you the 21st inst. / maintain
that that letter was written in a
gentlemanly form, addressed as
thought to gentlemen, bnt alas, how
sadly / was mistaken, and the
boys have proven IL by the un-
gentlemanly and Infamous slang
they have heaped upon me in
their reply. They try to squirm
out Of their assertions by saying a
part of my letter was false. ! will
say in this connection, that truth
hurts, although being branded as
false, it does not loose any of its
virtue. They also state that |
rushed into print; as though they
had not done that thing themselves
first. Come boys, be good. Now
the whole of this slang and abuse
is, as you say, to set yourselves
right before the people. 1t is per-
fectly plain to every reader that
there was nothing in my letter to
raise your ire or justify your TRADE
Of abuse, but "out of the abundance
of the heart the mouth speaketh.
Ny opinion differed from yours
and had the effrontery to say SO,
and openly object to any further
robbery Ct the taxpayers. Now in
this connection | wish to say, that
l am heartily in favor of our
county officers receiving just and
ample compensation for their SER
vices; also a remuneration that will
induce good men to take hold OF
the offices. Now boys, if you are
not paid enough to justify you re-
naming in office, You have an
alternative, and / assure you with
all candor, that there are plenty Of
as good men as you that would be
glad to get six dollars per day, and
l will say further, that you may
empty your vile wrath upon me tt
your hearts content, but you vii
fail to bulldoze me into anything
only what l think is right ant
just. And while / live, whether a.
All officer or private citizen, N,
purpose shall be in my humble
way to advocate 1.-The cause OF TIN
oppressed against unjust taxation
Now as to you boys not under
standing a part of my letter,
hardly expected you would, but a
ignorance is bliss, l shall be con
tent to leave you where foun'
you. "For they bind heavy bur
dens and grievous to be born am
lay them on mems shoulders, bu
they themselves will not NOV
them with one OF their fingers.
Now boys, be good, and when pap
attends the circus again he wi
not only allow You to go along
but you can have candy an
peanuts, provided you have til
money to pay for them, and i
conclusion l will say, | have n
apology to offer to you boys fc
anything l have said, an
any other slang or impertinenc
coming from you will be treate
with silent contempt by
