Reclprocates A Favor.

On Tuesday of this week the Dis
patch Office loaned the Herald two
columns of type to enable them to get
their paper off on time. AS usual
they forgot to acknowledge the favor,
but didn't forget to print it along side
of a couple OF columns of personal
abuse of the man whom they asked
the favor. Gratitude is lost art at
that print Shop.-DiSpatch.
The foreman of the Herald ac-
knowledges borrowing of the Dispatch
the report of county commissioners on
last Wednesday morning, but not on
account of not having enough matter
up to print the edition. We simply
asked Mr.. Royce for the use of his
type and he willingly consented, and
we felt very grateful for the use Of
the same. But we did not think it
necessary to take up space gushing
over the Disqualification through the
columns of the Herald; but thanked
the whole push from the devil to the
editor. Royce has forgotten favor,
as he calls it. Last week we bought
bill Of paper of the Western Paper
Company and the salesman asked us
if we objected to him shipping small
order along with our for the Dispatch
we told him it would be alright.
The goods arrived and we paid the
freight and delivered the same to Mr..
Royce. Now, Royce, we thought you
really did you have grain of dece ncy
concealed somewhere about your per-
son, but we frankly confess we think
different now. During the past four
teen years in the newspaper business,
this is the first time we have been
treated such by the newspaper fra.
ternity-our dealings heretofore have
been with gentlemen. FOREMAN.

one with the exceptions of one inn

the errors being made in the seventh
inning.
1t was a good clean game from start

thing which seldom occurs at a ball
game. Link NippS pitched a phenom-

man after man and was ably backed
by the fielderS except in the fatal in
