In addressing 'he Chamber of Com

by illustrations which began with the

drifted among the tars. His Versatile

milky way terrestrial and empyreal.
, Some unappreciative person in the au

another to ''cheese it' and still anoth

but undaunted he kept eloquently on
exercising his milky sway over his
hearers.

The Oxford Day was kind enough
to copy our article in reply to its criti
cism uion the Durham county grand
jury, and disclaims any intention o
injustice I he Day did asert that 1
believed the paragraph it commented
upon concerning Durham was a piece
of sensational news without founaa
tion.
So far as our knowledge goes The
Day's belief was wi 11 founded. I ha
1x1 per, however, "would have prefer
red that our contemporary (the Sun)
had been more specific in its denial.
Wei!, neighbor, the open charge you
heard that tru- Durham grand jury
found a true bill against a "manufac-
uring firm here and then afterwards
dn piK-d it like a hot coal, is not
me. so far as we can learn from the
workings of our grand jury. After in
vtstigating the matter during their
entire session iio presentment was re
turned at all and the Sun so stated
when the grand jury adjourned.

In the heat of our indignation ar.d
the hunry of preparing the article, we
were led yesterday into making a
statement in an editorial broader than
we intended and capable of our in
terpretation we never meant it to bear
We did not mean to stigmatize every
RejHiblietin as a scoundrel; we trus
we are more tolerant of those who
differ with us in opinion. Our re
n aiks were aimed at Chairman Quay
and his dishonest litical methods-
at Seaker Reed and thoe who are
sustaining him in hrs villiany in the
House of Representatives: they are the
leading exponents of Republicanism
today, and their conduct is deserving
of the epithet we applied. We make
this explanation as a simple act of jus
lice, and because we do not want to
be understood as saying a thing we
never meant to say.
