iSir,—ill my first letter on this subject I stressed the wisdom of confining letters to fact and tril-Ih and avoiding exaggeration. Mr,

considerable versatility, should give this phase of the question a. little moi-c appreciation. It will not help his arguments to enlarge 111 11110 facts even by implication. and If he wishes to retain the osteem in which he is held it will be safer to steer in the straight line.

ferclitiaiiy admits as a fable-at 80 cents pcr peck potato story- aud thou jumps to declare that “Free Lance" makes the state- ment that “We ncvier get a. dollar back from Halifax or Montreal or other cities where catalogue houses are." Now why this stretch- ing of facts? He found nothing °1 the kind in any of my letters, he did find the statement, which neither he nor any other can con- tradict, that we liever got a dollar in the form of provincial or muni- cipal taxes from those houses. And he will likely find it further stat- od this; not a dollar of the over- lilbfld costs of hundling—~!1\fli 5
