Mr. M. V. McClain.
Dear 3> I
notice in (he last two issuer of the
Jasper News that voubavc published
some very strong msiuus tiona that
some person. had misrepresented you,
by letter to Thos. 0. Crenshaw, or, in
your language they had “Tied on yea.*’
Now, my dear sir, if you have ref¬
erence to what 1 have said in the mat*
ter, loave tdf your irony, and address
the public in a reasonable and intelli
gent way, that you may be understood
I first thaught jo'ut slang phrases too
insignificant for a reply, but as il eeems
there is no end to them, I considered
patience had ceased to be a virtue
and. for fear that the public might
thiugt think by my Silence thst I had
misrepresented you, to Collector Cren¬
shaw, l think a few words of explana¬
tion would not be out of place
i wrote M r. Crenshaw concerning
(he appointment of a Deputy Collector
for this division aad that 1 unde rated
that you (M. O.-WoC lam) was a a ap¬
plicant tbr that position aud that /did
not think you a proper om for that posi
t on and gate iny reasons. Now I dont
wish to give those reasons to the pub¬
lic troui /he fact Iliave no tuc/i nation
*» want lo expose a gentlemans weak
points, but will say that if you think
..( have misrepresented you, to Mr.
Crenshaw, yau are at perfect liberey to

judge for them selves Now Mr. Ed
from the tone of ; Mrinenf your locals a
person would judge that titer were some
notorious “liar*** somewhere in the
■eircnlrtion of the Jaspeu News. Now
Hir will you be generous enough to
sj/ecifj a Jj jttie .yid let the public judge
which “si le of the truth you ore on,”
and wheather you hove been iuis*rep
teseiued or not.
As for my Democracy it is good as /
want it, ir is immaterial with me wheath
it s ill#y*jii or not. I believe in a De¬
mocracy that the nnjoriiy rules, and
when the people down on a fel
iow,” that. he should gracefully retire,
apd *o»t abuse every body because he
WAS not successful.
It secern? a little strange to u»e that

There were a great many win thought
