In publishing the first communications relative to the Colbeck insanity case, we little thought that the correspondence would assume the bitterly personal nature that it has; but having published Dr. Longley's last letter, it is only justice to Dr. McCabe that he have a chance to show his position. From each of the last com munications we have found it necessary to expunge many adjectives, but they are strong enough as they are. With this etter, the correspondence is ended, so far as this paper is concerned. Ed. North Platte, Oct. 11, 1887. To THE EDITOR8 OF TnfBUNE: Judging from the vomit of abuse, with which my aged friend smeared the columns of your paper last week, my candid uncontradicted and repeated state ments of facts made him sick Indeed. In his wreathing agony he forgot his sur roundings, and actually had the temerity to lecture -tae' on my(?)elflshnesar O amazinr frail ! P. H .'Lanflrlev'wfiosft cold and cruel selfishness Is a theme for every tongue, is now piteously howling for the sympathy of the public in the suffering brought upon him in reality by his own stupidity or greed but what he claims to be my selfishness. His brazen cheek is equaled only by his foolish egotism when he sets himself up as an object of pro fessional eminence exciting the jealousy of his competitors. No, you are not a man to be jealous of either professionally or socially. When I become jealous if my jealousy does not take a higher aim I want to die and have my name cast into oblivion. Blinded by all the absorbing passion of greed he offers as a justifica tion for "bleeding" the county treasury the diabolical excuse that he pay3 a great er amount of taxes than someone else. With the recklessness of defeat he charges me with falsehoods without even attempting to prove them, and ends his savoury epistle with a disgusting reca pitulation of his self-glorification in which he makes a ludicrous attempt to force down the throats of the public his self-adjudged triumphbver me. He challenges me to the proof of my statements . Here, is the proof : Having under my care by order of the poor matter the inaaae man C. P. Colbeck, and having learned thata meeting of the commissioners of insanity was called to take action in bis case, I called upon the county clerk, who is ode of the commis sioners of insanity, and by the way the one who keeps the "records," aad asked him what had been done at this meeting with reference to seadiag C. P. .Colbeck to the insaae asylww at Ltecobc He (the couuty clerk) said to me in the, presence of his deputy, that there hadbeea nothing done at this the jtrt meeting in the case, as Dr. Long ley, after having examined the man, could not positively say that he was insane and deemed it advisable to await further developments.: This oc cured on the day following, that on which the meeting in question was held, and I there and then stated emphatically, to the county clerk, that the man's insanity was fully and markedly developed and' had been so for several days. Thanking me for this information he said he would call another meeting as soon as convenient at which meeting my aged friend meekly performed the "Haman Act." and had written on the "record book" that C. P: Colbeck "is insane, and violently so, and a fit subject for treatment." Now who is the "self-branded falsi fier?" Is not this frank and honest state ment of your fellow commissioner true? Come now, answer manfullv, and. stop your shuffling, or forever remain silent and leaye this with all the other sordid and selfish tricks of your life to hide away behind the curtain of time. N.
