OUR LETTER BOX

C.R.D.—Your poem on "Silence" will never make a noise. Oleo.—Rather piffling—you might do much better. Amy.—Tender' trifle too trite for type. Auto.—lt is not a matter for print, , but for the police. Moses A.—Prefer not to permit discussion of a racial question that would stir up strife. Cakissima.—The Italian Consul would possibly be able to give you the information you seek. Typo.—That phase is being dealt with in the leading columns. Many thanks for kind letter. T.M.—Vigorous virile vituperation about nothing. It's not our fault that fellow is standing for a seat iii Parliament. Go away! • U.Y.—The paragraph to which you refer was from the Boston "Monitor," and was acknowledged to that model paper. Don Q. —It is not nicely done. You may be satirical without being offensive if you know how. You do not. Westfiei,u.—The matter is only of interest in that if the information were printed it would infuriate consumers. Jean V.—The experiment of publishing a column in the French language was once tried by a Southern paper, but dropped after about six weeks.
