Mr. Leib , also of ' 'bleedingKansas , ' ' has
been preparing for winter , by giving his
house an additional covering of tar paper
and weather boarding , which , as well as giv
ing comfort , also adds to the appearance.
Mr. Leib , by the way , is one of our live , en-
ergetic'and progressive farmers , who mixes
a large amount of intelligence with his un
dertakings , which is ( he secret of'his popu
larity and success.
The Gazette correspondent from Banks
ville , who doesn't live there at all , by the
way , and who does not eive any signature to
his lilliputian effort , ( which , fact , however
isn't of any more importance than the arti
cle ) must have lived in sheolian atmosphere
to think that the boys were treated so hand
somely nt Vailton. But we wish to assure
the Vailton people that it was not a desire to
put a right construction on their acts , that
cnused the said article to emenate from the
asperMve pen of said correspondent , bill a
desiderium to over-awe ye scribbler , other
wise known as "Sivart. " ' How we do awe !
As tliih will probably be our last effort for
some time at least , in the line of a ' 'scribe , ' "
we will say , "au revoir' " to our friends for
whom we entertain the kindest feelings. On
all subjects on which our opinion has been
expressed , it has been done in all candor
without malice or prejudice. We are aware
that we have made some enemies on account
of some opinions so expressed , but we are
also aware that if a man has no enemies , he
is not an honest man. We reserve the right
at all times of maintaining our convictions ,
where we think properto do so. We ex
press opinions of acts and words committed
and .said , and not of persons. A person who
commits any improper act calls for condem
nation of the act , while the same person by
not committing such an act , enjoys the priv
ilege of living without disapprobation of
said non-committed acts. If people in gen
eral were more unhesitating in their disap
proval of acts which are not just or equita
ble , these acts would not be of so univer
sal occurrence. I am yours for a purer
conversation , for a desire to be of benefit to
our fellow man. to be more chivalrous and
orderly in all our acts and hocial intercourse.
