Show In handling this political question The Dispatch wishes to be perfectly fair and just with our friends on the other side. We don't desire to impugn any man's motives unless he has been flagrantly inconsistent in his movements. move-ments. If we handle any question what som would term severely, let it be understood that we are discussing principles, and not men. We have no personal fight with anybody who may differ with us. Our dearest friend may hold an vpposite view from ours, and still that should not interfere with our friendship. Men differ on a thousand business oposi- i o tions without marring their most intimate inti-mate relations; politics is a business matter entirely, and why not the fame in that? We are called upon to say this from the fact that some uncalled for remarks and personal insinuations insinua-tions haye been made during the present educational discussion. On the one hand all should be very guarded guard-ed that no personality enter iuto any remarks, and on the other that no onu should take unto himself as an insult a reference that was intended only to , cover a principle. |
