Under this heading short letters of In. terest will bo publl&hed when accompi nled, for publication, by tho writer's name. The Tribune will not be held re sponsible for opinions here expressed. Kov. iIr. Duvy's Iilcns. Editor of The Tribune. Sir: I perceive that tho business man agers of your publishing houso havo in creased tho prlco of Tho Tribute. Now, let them insert a few more columns of business advertisements nnd a few moro column of baso ball news, and a fofl more columns of bicycle races, and a few moro columns of dime novels, and you will mako a very interesting paper for a morning's meal for the general reading public. It will have a tendency to ln cteaso their Intelligence, and elevate their virtues. But! but! but! If some virtuous man should send you an nrtlcb on public mo,-als, taking the Bible for his stnndard, it would not be admitted to your col umns. Wo arc a friend of yoi'rs and a friend of tho paper, but we think a little moro back-bono In tho editorial depart ment on questions that relate to the flgat between vlrttto nnd vice; right and wrong; good nnd evil; urtlclcs that would have n. tendency to elevate society, wod be. fully as lniet estlng to your general readers us so much base ball matter. It was stated In tho preachers' meeting In Elm Park church that Rev. Mr- Race, of th' C"dar Aenuo church, sent you -in artlclo defendlrg the noble position of that noble man, Dr. Dixon, II' the urm stand that ho took against piling up whiskey btrrels against tho house of Go 1, and you would not publish It. 8a It seems your paper Is published not for tho good of society or tho elevation of our citizens, but to mako money, even If . It comes through tho tmoko stacks of tho bottom less pit and thcro are over 500 of them in Lackawanna county. Why siiould reli gion bo divorced from the buslpfiss affairs of llfo, whether that business bo moral or Immoral, for tho sako of r.il)ns up a nation of drunkards and of Sabbath breuklng ball players? Qo'6!l' morals rather than making money are tho bul warks' of a nation, and a nation without morals will go to pieces sooner or later. Yours respectfully. John Davy. Scranton, Mny 4. Brother Davy mokes tho common mis take of supposing that a nowspaper has a mission superior to that of paying Its way. If ho wero to run ono for a short time, he would appreciate tho necessity of publishing a liberal quantity ot sport ing news, "dlmo novels" and advertise ments. Concerning what Tho Tribune prints or rejects In tho way of voluntary contributions to any department, that U naturally a matter within Us own pro vince. Whenever ouy reader of this pa per feels thut It Is not worth tho prlco charged for It, It Is his right to stop taking It. Wo ask no odds. As for backbone, blees him, wo havo It to spare. Ed.
