Ktws.-The "Gazette" was quoted sev-
eral }lanes at _ the Friday evening inset-
ing in the Town Hall Ae a ma4,ter. of
fact the "Gazette" has not eipressed
an opinion • either 2or oir against local
optiion,. We have }space to sell just as
the merchants, 'fa tow,d, nave goods to
,sell andwesell tihiulh apace to the pub -
lie or just_ as thle prdte'ssional mann
delle psis leler' iceel to the 'pubIilc�' We
have sold' space 'to bottli tthe; Lpcal Op-
tion committee add. to the anti Local

to the people who have purchased it.

pdveriisement, we cannot dictate to
any committee or rnetrtcibant or adver
tiser vvvh;at shall be printed itttt the space
which they have purchased, unless it
be libellous matter. Neither acre we
responsible for what appears thereand
we believe a atewopaper 'should ,serve

The merchant' does not refuse to sell
tea or sugary Or dry goods or clothing
orr hardware or furniture to a customer
because that euetonier chances to 4. be
on ,the Local optaoln'or onthe anti
Local option iside of the question,. Then:
why should not the'newspaper do busi-
ness with. all classes of the public just
as every other business Maria iu town
does and why should ipt each side
of ani question, heveaiceorded them the
privilege of .halting- their Opinions print-
ed in the oolumina 02 the local press?.
In a good all round •standup fight
no ono wishes to gag or 'bind his op-
