In WHY IT IS PUBLISHED. he East Durham Minister, in Denouncing the Circus, Makes a Personal Attack on an Editor Who Happened to Differ With Him. In giving space to the follow ing open letter, the editor of the Recorder wishes it distinctly un derstood that neither this paper nor this writer has any quarrel with Mr. Johnson or any feeling whatever in the matter. In fact, notwithstanding our custom to Tint any ordinary communication to which a man will sign his own name and for which he will as sume the responsibility, thus giv ing every man a chance to be heard and every interest protected, this being somewhat "in the fami- y," it would not have been pun ished in this sheet bad not the editor been told, by a very reputa ble gentleman, that Mr. Johnson said iu his presence, and in the nature of a challenge, that all he wanted now was to get his name in the "old IIillsdoko Record er," or words to that effect, Be ing always willing to oblige a minister, and presuming that the speech was meant to reach our ears, we yield our columns, un willingly, to a personal controver sy, in which we have had and propose to have no part. Just what Mr. Johnson can have against the Recorder or the present management we are at a loss to understand. 'During our journalistic work in Durham it has several times been our privi lege to say some very kind and very pleasant things concerning him and his work. We have nervr criticised him or his actions, or mentioned his name in any but a complimentary way. If what we wrote last week about the cir cus did not meet his approval, we are sorry, but have no apologies to oiler for advocating, what we believe to be right and concerning which others have an equal right to differ. It is cenerally understood in communities where we nave labor- ad. that all the enemies we made were on account of the stand which we took acainst immorali ty and for the best interests of society. Ministers, as we under stand it are hborinar to the same end, then why snould any minis ter be against usT r ar from blam- ine them wenave encouraged their efforts, wherever tuey have been made, to purify the church, and if we have censured them at an it was for tolerating on the part of rich members what we did not believe should be tolerated or would be tolerated were the often der some poor wretch without in tiuence or wunoui social poeiuou We are quite willing to stand on our record and if Mr Johnson BOTH - BOARDS INDICTED. desires 10 denounce us, amng wiui the circus, from his pulpit, we want it understood riirht here that The City le will provoke no controversy, feelinc, as we do, that whatever he may or niav not sa v will have DID NOT KNO W THE LA W. no effect whatever upon the husi- ll Jl. ....
