Slush vs Slush.
SintKWSlUTHY Ky., July 24, 1SS4.
Hcsponse to n communication In
Hkkald July 10th, under caption of
"Slush," by V. Lament, of Millwood.
IjuiuouL seems greatly dissatisfied
with things In Grayson county. Some
men are dlfrsutiHiicd with everything,
except what they do, und with every
person, except themselves. Lamont
seems to be one of this class. It U evident
that he is infinitely satisfied with
hlnnelf. After throwing his vile spleen
at the Scroll and the gentlemanly
editor of the Suntjatm, he strikes at the
County Superintendent of Common
Schools uud the Cuneyvllle examination.
There nro three good reasons for believing
that Lamont misrepresented the
Cuneyvllle examination :
1. One-fourth of the applicants at
that examination failed to get certificates.
2. Messrs. Mehr and Spencer are
competent uud conscientious examiners.
It. The last three or four examining
boards for Gray sou county havo beeu
notvd for their severity. It Is said to be
moredilllcult to get a certllicate In this
county than iiinuy of the adjoining
counties.
Leaving the Sunbeam and the examining
board to take care of themselves,
I will make n few remarks on Lamont's
egotistic attack on the Scroll, First of
ull. however, I will say that I have no
objection to Just crltlcl'in, but Lamont
wrote no criticism What he says, Is
mere derision. I would pi y no atten
Hon to his Slush" If the readers of the
IlKUAhD had read the Scroti.
1. Lamont says that he believes Prof.
Arnold Is the editor aud proprietor of
the Scroll. Prof. Arnold Is neither Its
editor nor Itx proprietor. Tho Lyceum
Scroll was a manuscript paper
edited by the young ladles of Grayson
Seminal Tho eighth number, of
which I was the editress, and from
which the editor of the Sunbcttm took
several extracts, was printed and circulated
In Uiaysou county. When the
school closed tho paper was dlseon
tinned.
2. I admit that the Scroll contained
several typographical errors, but such
errors uppear in the best of papers.
.1 The'Scroll was not Intended for
news. If it hud beeu tilled with ucJgh
Itorhood slush, aud misrepresentations
of publio enterprises uud county
perhaiH Lamont would have en
Joyed It more.
4. Though only u school paper, the
Scroll contained as much common
sense or any other paper In tills part
of the State. It has been euloglzsd by
persons that are as Intelligent as La
inuut, and by some that are more Intelligent.
C. The fact that Lumoutdid not find
"one new Idea" In the Scroll does not
prove that It contained no new Id cum.
Some persons ure Incapable of finding
new Ideas. Possibly, however, this Is
not the case with tho profound ami erudite
Lumnut. Having explored thu
I whole Held of human Ideas uud of dl-
vlno knowledge, his infinite mind had
received all Ideat, human aud divine,
before he read the Scroll, and hence he
could not find "one now Idea" In the
paper. The Scroll was not published
for men of Lamont's genius and erudition
It was published for the benefit
of those persons that have not reached
tho limits of humuu knowledge, and
who, consequently, muy receive at least
'one new Idea."
u Lament eays'that the contributors
to the Scroll 'aro aspirants for the
high position of pedagogues and
This language was In
tended to be Ironical. It is a malicious
thrust at the profession of teaching,
uud all Intelligent persons will treat It
us It should be treated with utter contempt.
Without attempting to de
feud the profession of teaching, I will
say that It Is certulnly us Mhigh" a
calling as tlwj one lu which turnout Is
engaged. If the young men and young
women are preparing to enter upou the
arduous uud uuremuuerutive profession
ol teaching, tbey should bo prulsed for
tho sacrifices that they are about to
make for Immunity; uud he tliut npeakw
derisively of such heroes uud heroines
ought to be utterly nbomlnuted, and
oven loathed by all good people.
7. It must tw u bad spirit that leads
a man to go out of his county to make
uii uttack on uuy olllclal or public enterprise
thereof, when he can make It
an well In his county. Why did not
Lamont present his manuscript at the
olllce of the Leltchlleld Sunbeam?
Grayson county Is more Interested thuu
Ohlocouutylu the things and tier-sons
that he attempts to criticize.
Then, I repeat, why did he not send
tils manuscript to the Sunbeam.
8. I will add that I have a few copies
of the Scroll, uud that If any reader of
this wishes to see the "film Ibm trash"
of which the scholastic uud literary
lament complains, aud will write me
ujiostul card to that eilect. I shall
take pleasure hi sending him or her u
u copy of the paper Itespectfully,
HicikCoiiu,
William Lamont, to tho Editor of the
"Loltohtleld Sunbeam."
If the luminary that scatters "dun-beams,"
over Grayson county lias actually
and truly HnbwvAl up afler his
last gambling uud drinking debauch, I
would like to impress upon his mlud u
homely old fable, In my owu language,
but originating with the ancient slave
Esop two thousand years ago, ami us
appropriate to-day as It was lu his
time.
Once upou a time there lived hi the
city of Le!tchfle!d,Gruysoticouuty,Ky.,
u donkey of wonderful sagacity. He was
a donkey cf Imitation, not of Invention
so when one day u traveling menugarle
came along, uud this woudcrful editorial
donkey for the llrst time beheld the
majestic lion, and listened to his mighty
voice, his skull was filled with louglngs
to be like unto thu monarch of beasts,
and rest or contentment hud he none
until by hook or by crook, he had procured
u Hou sklu und pinning buck his
ears uud hiding his deformity under Its
gruceful folds lie tmblushiugly purnded
himself before un astonished public lu
his new dress.
For u time his foolish airs and uu
couth gambols were tolerated by the
disgusted people, but one day this wonderful
editorial ass took It Into his skull
that like the noble beast he represented
himself to be, he could shake the universe
with the thunder of his voice so
gathering himself up,foru mighty effort
lie essayed thorotr of tho II ju, but
alasl alas! the attempt was a complete
failure, foi with thu cllurt his disguise
dropped off, uud he stood exposed before
a luughhig public as the veritable
donkey hiiu&shihie voice so unmistakably
proclaimed hhu.
How does the fable strike you Mr.

My opinion of the Sunbeam aud lis

Railroad Ruinhlliicu
Alitor HrrtiM t
Will you penult a correipoudeut t
make some suggestions. A county
town like Hartford, should have
outlet. The mercantile Interests
of the town, the agricultural ami mining
Interestsot a largo excellent
tho county seat,usbo
from the social Interests of tho community
seem to indicate a uecesdly for a
convenient connection with tho
Interests of the country. We are In
a dead eddy, while we should, ami can
oisily have a prosperous, thriving busy
town. I feel strongly Impressed that
If we will put our heads together, wo
can build a branch railroad from Heaver
Dam to Hartford aud get our jeo
plo and our business Into the commercial
current. It Is no secret that our
trade Is lu a Stute of staguutlou und our
!coplc, that should lie lively and on the
Jumpnre full of apathy and languor.
We cuu build a brunch road for u stmill
sum; thu distance In short und the expense,
we think will not exceed $10,000
for the part we'propose for the citizens
and tho town to do. Where there Is a
will there Is n way and wo suggest thai
a beginning be made. Two or three
publin spirited men can put tho matter
on foot and get up an Interest that
will take uhape directly, lly proper
efforts by the right men and
the U O. & S. W. H. IX. Co., can
be Induced to.uld in constructing u road
between the two point named, A
proiKwltlou to grade and tie the road
from Heaver Dam to Hartford by the
citizens would meet a favorable response
from the C. O. and 8. W, road
und result lu uu agreement by them If
that were done, that they would Iron
the same and operute It and prolate
stock artercompletlou uro a if the
the actual amount expended by each.
We know that other roads are aiding
the building of branch roads Jo tho
main line hi this wuy. A road Is now
being built from K Ik ton in Todd county
to Guthrie In tnls way and the
grading and tie will not cost more thuu
2200 per mile. Xow let us think and
talk a little for a road for our town.
Why not Investigate the mutter and
see what the C. O. it S. W. It. II. Co.,
will do; are we so utterly dead that we
cannot try to Mud out; our part will
not cost more tlinn $9,000: cau we not
raise the amount by private subscription
and stock tukeu by the town. The
O. O. & S. W, has the Iron at any time
we may need It and can easily meet us
In our arrangements If we will let them.
A road would certanly hoof great
to us lu many ways. D. not wnlt
until tvo cannot get away from our
town uud then begin to tulk railroad or
slants water navigation. Cannot we
havo a meeting md do something
now. Time speeds away; mint we stand
still and see other Interests built up at
ourexieuse; will not our business men
wake up to their Interests before It Is
too late. SunscitlliKK.
SlunhforR. Campbell-
'You have got yourself Into Uit)
company nt last Willie," remarked my
grandmother, us she laid down the
Hartford Hr.UAhD aud prepared to
wipe ol! the moisture that had accumulated
ou her spectacles.
What's the mutter uowgramlmother?
I asked.
"Well," she answered "the ioet
lauruute of Temperance, Campbell I
believe is his name, not taking my
lesson ou slush to heart as he should
havo done, conies out In this Issue of
thellKitAM), with a string of doggerel
rhyme, and very poor rhyme at that
which ho dubs 'A Dream.' That Is all
very well, but ho marches out his
majesty himself, and for a companion
gives him "Cain" the unfortunate
writer of "Slush." Xow Mr. Campbell
may be a poet (V) a scholar and a gen
tlenmn.btit his egotistical presumption
lu trying t curry on his puny shoulders
the whole structure of temperance, roof,
pillars, props uud foundation, disgusts
wldle at tho same time It amuses me.
Just listen to a little of his 'Dream,'
when he makes Satan nay:
Now come my Mend oneo more be Jolly,
And unit O, quit thl temperance folly
For lr you put Intemperance down
That moment 1 tdiall loose my crown.
If you do not call that egotism ol
the llrst water, then I havo never seen
anything that was. Tho Idea of u
i hy mster of Mr. Campbell' calibre,
overthrowing thu gigantic vice of iu
temperance with tho aid of his
temperance sounetn, us ho calls them,
Is tudrcrous In tho extreme, uud
would make mo laugh but pity for the
man counteracts the eflcct uud I feel
more Ilkoshcddlng tears over his lusau.
Ity than Indulging In mirth ut hU expense.
O shades of thu venerable
Kuther Mutthews, sud all thou uim
ties of Temperauce.who freely gave thy
gonitis, lives and fortunes to the holy
cause thou advocated; look down anil
blush at thu recklcsj picMimptloii displayed
by Mr. C In his Incomparable
'Dream' and if tho ullMrs of tills
life are In any wuy connected with
thy spirit lives write, 1 beseech thee,
write ou Mr. Campbell's heart In letters
ofllviug lire the irr.iml glorious old word
'Slush;" and iiy grandmother lo.ve I
her head aud sheil tours, over the follies
of jxior frail Immunity.
