Itidgway, March 2'th. 1S70.
Mr. Editok: Is this a free country?
if it is a person has a right to decline to
t'iko or stop a paper if he sees fit, and
thisbeinjr so where is the point in
"Bantam" Miller's article in the UMi
wtifcr Democrat in which he calls peo
ple, wlio discontinue his filthy sheet
"thin skinned?" I have been in the
habit of rending newspapers all my
life and B. M. is thefirf.t editor lever
heitrd call a man ''thin-sVinned" be
cause he refused to tuke or returned
his paper; but this important editor
of the Dishwater D. yelps like a whip
ped cur. "Bantic" goes on the plan
that lie lias the right to publish what
soever suits him about his subscribers
or neighbors, in jest or Blander, and
he is not very particular who or how
it hits nnd then when they refuse to
read his tracli he cul's them "thin
skinned." In u former issue he writes
about victims of "iiihp'KiL'cI confi
dence." pivinti: 3onie of tho school boys
a rub. Now, we all know, that he 1ms
beenthe worst victim of "misplaced
confidence" ofany youngiuttn in town.
ami it in becomes "isantie ' in a com
niunity where ho i-j so well known to
come out and call his friends and
neighbors, and even school children
victims of "niisp'aced conlldcnce.'t
Bantie" you can go and have a game
of base-ball as soon as the snow goes
oil", but. one word before you go, if you
continue your personal abuse through
thecoltinins of the Duhwutcr D. you
will soon have occasion to call many
more of your subscribers "tl'iii
skinned" NAD.
Brookviilc, Pa , March 27ih. 1876.
Mr. l'.iuroH: In order that the outside
world may not fe'.'get that there is such a
place as Brookville, I take a few moments
'eisure aud let you know that we are still
moving. Winter in this section tins ap
peared wrong end foremost, aud we aro now
having weather that would have done credit
o midwinter.
Our people are still as energetic as of
yore, notwithstanding the scarcity of
money, and the general stagnatiou of busi
ness. We are, however, about to lose one
of our most energetio oitizeas in tux per
son of ex-Sheriff Johu S. Carr. who leaves
this week to take ch irgo of the American
House, in Pittsburgh, wh'ch is now being
refitted for the accommodation of his nu
merous friends, who may have business iu
that city. It is not a matter of doubt that
Sheriff Burr knows how to keep a hotel,
aud we are mtiisned that the American
House, under his management, will become
a favorite resort for his in.iny friends while
sojourning iu the Smoky City. tiheritf
Barr in thus leitviug us casts quite a dam
per on his friends iu this county who were
determined to make him the Bepublican
candidate for the Legislature, uud hr.J he
have got the nominatiou there would have
been no such thing as defeating him. But
as it is as necessary to have goa 1 hotel s
and landlords as it is good legislators, we
will cheerfully put up with our disappoint
ment. We are again h iving gome excitement in
this section over the prospects cf auother
railroad being built into this county. This
time we are to be connected directly with
the lakes, by a railroad from our vast coal
fields to Buffalo. This ror'a as at present
spoken cf will pass directly through Brook
ville, and thence south of u,'where already
thcro has been considerable land, under
laid with superior coal, purchased by
Buffalo parlies.
. - ...
But for fear that Jou may think I am
taking up too much of your valuable space
I will close this, and promise more interest
ing matter next 'lime,' DICK.
