has been smart enough to pui that wonder
full lie 10 circulation. But no doubt W. Is.
n. aud all being against the Lnbourers and
wanting to keep them down, and there
fore not alone many of the Danes, but for
inst. also of the Irishmen, would like me aud
other people of the same opinion with me
to be black, as it of course would be
more easy to get the Mother Coun-
try to understand, that the Labourers are
always wrong, the Employers Always right,
if only black people were for he Laboul ers.
". E. Ms remark about The Colour Question
is therefore also most welcome to me as also
this remark is just fit to make the people at
home WISE
70 be on the Lnbourels' side is however in
itself not the same as 10 be u personal friend
OF the Lenders of the Labour- Movement;
that means only to agree with them in the
ideas, they are honestly fighting for, and to
support them in his fight, not for the Lead
ers' sake, but for the Labourers' Even the
very best Leader is 10 consider to be nothing
compared with the masses he is working for.
But OF course | AN not going to defend
myself against al Of the many personal re-
marks W. E.. N. has brought up against me.
l shall therefore about these, further
more here mention only, that some of them
to me are, l shall not say ">ld friends" but
cold acquaintances'. How is that ? Well
last yeur the Agricultural Society on the
proposal of Planter W. Fleming and Admin
i~strator SchmiegeIow took up u discussion of
the question of giving land to the L4bourerx,
and Invited he to take part in this discussion.
Mr.W. Fleming, the Speaker OF the Painters,
opened the meeting by giving an awfu!
description of my impossibI!Ity as social
politician and ~pedagogue and expressed his
feelings towards me, the invited guest of the
Society, III words that in some cases
were almost literally the same as those w.
II. n. Low has used against me. And there
fore, though l do not at all believe, MIR. Fl.
Is the author of The article, rs / from himself
long ago learned, that also be hates writings
of this kind.the wording OF the article in this
Paper had quite a familiar sound to me. ADD
what a fine thing that was! Otherwise I
might have felt myself half killed by w. y.
n. now | did not care, as ny experience
from A. s.. already had taught me that
personal remarks IRE of little influence and
IN reality are only the proof of bankruptcy
of arguments
And consequently l do not at all mind, if
WEN. tries to paint me ever 80 black. Bat
as Mrs Rubner-P Petersen has been attacked
on account Of the article in "The Herald.
l shall use the opportunity, given me by West
End News 10 publish u letter which Mrs.
R.-P. the other day wrote to Mr.. Th.-A. l.,
and which reads as follows:
"Deres ubogribelige IudiskretioD at Of

| suppose these words are clear enough,
but having to do with the Editor of W. EN-.
and his anonymous assistant / think it best
to give a few examples of MIR. A.. LIS and
w. b. News use Of quotations, and here they
are:
