There is probably no place on
earth better than a country news
paper office to learn how many
kinds of people there are. Some
get huffy if a statement is sent,
others will not pay until they re
ceive a statement. Some will pay
without a statement and others
won't pa.V whether a statement is
sent or not. Some thought they
owed more and some thought they
didn't owe so much. Some say
they couldn't get along without
the (wiper and others say itdoes'nt
amount to much. But the mean
est, scrubbiest in the list is the

off for non-payment and then
spends all his time explaining how
he used to take "the thing,’’ but
stopped because it was “no count. ”

BROWN’S REPLY.
Some think debating is a sin
That Christians should notenter in;a
Sucli lolks have not learned the news
That Paul debated with the Jews.
But such is truth, yea solid facts
They stand recorded in the "Acts'*
j And that this truth you all may know
’ I give the reference found below.
[Acts ix 29, xv 1-2, xvii 17, xix 8 9.]
Of course The Journal was not there
I its spite aUfi venom to declare,
I To mix its gall with fiendish grit
And write him up a hypocrite.
Some people think two men can’t meet
And each the other kindly treat.
! That they each other n ust abuse
j in contending for their views.
Debates unfold to men the truth
They help the aged and help the youth:
They help each one to understand.
| And so obey the great command.
[John v 39.]
; When I say all. 1 do explain
j I mean to all who have a braic.
They are cot helpful, as a rule,
To any man who is a fool.
God agitates this world with strife
And keeps it inoving full of life,
With lightning flash and breath of
storm.
He keep? it living bright and warm.
The winds across the ocean sweep
And stir the waters wide and deep;
| This agitation you call strife
1 Within the waters keeps the life
! 1
; Should wild winds stop forever more
Andstilluess reign from shore toshore
The power of death would calmly creep
And hold dominion o'er the deep. •
j Some one in dwelling on this thought
Before our mind a verse has brought;
[ will the same to you rehearse
I give it In the corning verse:
“The very deep would rot, Oh Christ!
It ever such should be,
Ai.d creeping things would crawl
; Across a shining sea."
So in the sea of human thought
Hard mental battles must tie fought
And should these battles not endure
; The mental sea would Ik* impure.
When Hrotiier iaishley met with me,
1 he people present will agree
That while for doctrine we’d contend
We held each other as a friend.
But while we were thus engaged
Am editor Jiecatue enraged
He dipped his pen in bitter gall
i And let his wrath upon us fall.
•
-This editor you know is gisid i?)
1 Ie always does the things he should ?)
In evil, lie takes no delight {?)
His conscience is so pure and bright ?)
When men put up a whisky shop
That they may sell the devil’s slop,
i That makes a man act like a hog
And brings him lower than a dog;
This editor so good and wise
Will this same business advertise
And thus will help the devil up
By helping men to find the cup.
And when blind tigers round him
crt ep
And purr so loud lie scarce can sleep;
I Against their work he does not rail
He is afraid to pinch their tail.
J This editor Inis not the jaw
j To plead for order or for law;
i He never yet has told to men
That Newark has a "tiger den."
When baseball games are running rife
And men do meet for muscle strife.
And gamblers meet to view the game
To bet their money on the same.
And some get mad and curse and
swear,
And wai t to fight like drunken bear;
This editor was never beard
Against such sins to speak a word.
When Jell and Carrol ran the race
To see who’d till the governor’s place,
This wise young man did take his pen
And tling his gall on both these men.
Hut when election came around
Where was their bold accuser foundV
To show to all what lie will do
I hear lie voted lor the two.
a man like this, without convictions
That deals with facts like they were
fictions
j Such a viciilating creature
May curse or praise most any preacher.
So let him praise, or let him curse
It makes none better, proves none
worse.
Say what he may, do what he can,
i only pity such a man.
