Tat 'Sun' says:

that he cares very little for Payton &

to him these bard times. But ho won't

BBuogBjuwe on ineir own account, just
Tb 'Sun' says, neithor that paper nor
in people will condemn Payson & Co.
until they need condemnation. So far as
this denial applies to the 'Sun' it is untrue.
That paper bas been condemning Payson
St Co., as well as tbo railroad company,
for a week, ignorantly. It has hinted
shortcomings without iuformation, It has
condemned tb contract made be
tween Howland and associates
and the company without having read (
that contract without knowing whether
there was on, two or three contracts. It
has done this either because It was
pall to do to or bocauie men who had
an object to accomplish has imposed upon
It. What does the 'Sun' mean 7 Does It
mean to aay the contract it has not read ii
ot a good contract? If so how does it
knowT And wherein is the contract do
fact! vet Does tb 'Sun' moan to say
that Payson St Co. aro dishonest?

The "Sun" must be more definite.
Hints will no longer do. What does it
know and what does it suspect? Our
neighbor must make specific charges. He
must inform himielf. It will not do to

subject which he is pretending to discuss,
and he has acknowledged bis profound

Th 'Sun' is still harping on the rail
road question.
Will our neighbor pleate to be Jmt?

We did not. Mr. Wilton taldt "The

tbo election." Was not that n proper re
sponse, bolng a true one, to Mr. Wilton's
Implied charge?
Tho 'Sun' further says:
Dul this is not all. He says above that
Canda has sworn to the statement, and In
his renlv to Mr. Wilson, he say that Mr.
Candu "has never been sujpocled ot a dis
honorable act," hut ho ndtulla above that

Further In what way will the InvcsllKatlon

that tho contractors arc lnnohcnt. The

tho road, is satisfied that tbo statement is
correct. lie has, from timo to time, as
the work progressed, Investigated the
affairs ot tbo company. Ho has been
careful that tho contractors should Qll the
contract. But If the statement of Canda
should bo false, how can tho pooplo sut
tain any injury from that fact at this
'-stage- of tho game ?" Tho company owes
the contractors. The contract was: That
the contractors should build the road and
receivo tborofore the fir-t mortgago bonds,
the county nnd town bonds subscribed to
tho company's capital stock, and $5,0J0,
600 stock, lets an amount of stock equal to
tbo amount of county and town bonds to
bo paid to them. Very well : Tho first
mortgage bonds wero sold and tho money
put into the road ; stock was also psld to
the contractors, ami they rooeived Cairo
nnd Alnzandorand Monroe county bonds;
but after all this was paid to them the com
pany still owed tburn about $189,000 ot
county; bonds, and will owo them when
thy havo complotcd tho road, $307,000
