Our friend should not censure The Democrat editor for using the blue pencil. We are the ones to be offended. You should be thankful, the little effusion as you seem pleased to term it, was original. We did not clip it from some comic paper. We should have been willing to let this go to a finish, but do not propose to follow you to the anti-in-dependent paper to do so. The Democrat editor will not allow the use of his paper for reply and yet you say he favors us. He wrote us, as be did you, I suppose, that it was not desirable, and then shut us out. You will find at no distant day that to take up the defense of boozers or testify to the good moral character of saloon applicants that one is starting to build for his future on a very poor foundation. We wish to say that it’s not from any fear that we would be unable to defend our position but for the reason that the game is not worth the ammunition. This is final.
