Al Robinson Talks Back.
Editor Republican : z In answer to Mr. Makeever’s challenge, which you noticed in the last issue, I only care to say that I had occasion to meet him before he issued his challenge, and freely consented to run, but for a little time, as it would be impossible for me to run two races the same day, or successive days. I will further say that my health no doubt proved a blissing, had other parlies suffer Mr. Makeever to tome in our race, as Oshkosh and myself would not hive been in itIn conclu ion I wish to .offer Mr. Makeever many thanks for running my race, and I think he fully demonstrated to all that his running equalled his talk. lam not in t.he ring.
A. C. ROBINSON.
