To hitn the fuct that the city of New Hei ne cast a nn.joiity of votes for the road law, no matter how small and in significant that majority mav I. is nrool sufficient that she was gellish and con- suited her own interest in the matter. Now the mnjorny was only 128, only about 4U..1 that mm having bt eu cast by the 1st, 2nd ami 3d wiinU; these Winds coutuining tue white riemeut of our town and of course the representative business mm, He seems to see no ditt'eri'lice ill a 1 small majority an.l a large majority. He savKtr.aiiu liiesjme pr-iporiiou ot vo e- ca.-t, had there bceu a full vote, th re Would have been a majority oi 94t lor thel law, ther- by insuring its paMWgr. And he is just as haili as if ihat majoiity had j been 'cast. Now ho asks if that vote had I lieen cast how would I auswer it in New I Hi rne's lavor? J he very fact that such a j vtite was not cast by the town people was ' the cause of mv writing the letter and for a man who protect a to have "tw grams of sense'' to Ijase his Conclusions upon a iiiaori"ty vote which the town might have cust but did not and tin n ask how it could be answered m New Berne's lavor, is in cumprebeustih p.. i am willing to answer tiny question pertaining to the facts in the case but 110 hypothetical questions which amount to nothing. Lets confine oursjves to f cts. The majority ol vons as above said, east by New B- iue in favor of the Road Law was only 128 Now consider ing the lact that she would hnvo hen J. lO-fn-ltltJ V..

You give a man a "stick to break your back' and he applies a small twig harmlessly, instead. Is there no difference iu the punishment iuflcted y To D. W. B. theie si-ems to be none and he abuses the wielder as violently in the one case as in the oUvv. B' the con ditions hud beeu reversed and the people in tne country allowed to saddle a tax upon the town people which they did not want, wlieu it would have been " f some benefit to the farmer, ami th re had been cast by them only such a small uiaj -rity, we of the town would not have failed to express our gratitude and appreciation, for we would have considered it practi cally no vote at all, and that our country 'riends had failed to vote because of their couside'a'.ion for us. I have heard sevoa' representative countrymen express the same sentiment as regards the lost vote iu our town. It is only such men as I). W. U., who hold no gratitude and are unwilling to accept any result as favoting the mutual ftieudship of the two sections. As to my politics I can't see what that has to 00 with the case, but will inform the grin leman that as I have no idea of joining the Popuhsi party he cannot ac cuse ie of straddling. And ag for the egg episode, ttf course that was wr.tten only in jest, ii how ever D. W. B., wi8tit-8 to take it seriously and he is ever guilty of the act for which it was prescrilied, viz: tryiug to array the country people against the town, and his hearers wish to make use of the sugges tion, I hope he will get his share.
