In commenting on our remarks of the 9th., bearing on the fact that our uews | notes should not be accepted as unques- tionable statements, our esteemed con- temporary, the editer of the ‘‘Herald”, says we overlooked the words, "‘as was reported in the ‘‘Avis’’ There is no evidence that our impression. must ne- | cessarily be alterad by any special atten- | tion to those words. We merely wanted | to have the general public understand | what we cxpiained in yesterday's issue | aad nothing more nor less. We, in turn, | may say our friend the editor of the | “‘Herald’’has overlooked the words ‘im- | plied’’ ard ‘‘the ‘Herald’ appears’’ in our | comment which decidedly modify what | he answers in the light of a charge. | et e e ; LOCAL. | The S. S. Katahdin and the schooner | Virginia have arrived at Frederiksted, | and mail by them may be looked for by noon, in Christiansted. | To the Editor of the Avis: | Dear Mr. Editor: I the Herald of yesterday’s issue ' Mr. R. de Chabert comments on the shooting of Negroes at Manning’s Bay for the amusenent of the DANES. cte. [t would have been nearer the resa] facts if it had been stated that a man who had ocecasionr to call at the Factory premises, but had no business on the functionary’s private premises, from whicn he was shown away, was pursued by the functionary. who only wen: for hi: pistol, vhen he was being bombarded by stones from which the gate still hears the marks. No mention is made of the fact that the Labor Union’s factory officer first meddled in the functionary’s private business and therefore afterwards wag told that next time he interfered in his private business whatever he gets he ““willbear by it"’". Mr. Editor, can you say if the new Code of Laws provides that Danes ean be bombarded or knocked down by stones for the amusement of Negro resident in the island? If not, then I look forward to see the drastic hand of the law come down upon such offenders in a manner that will cure the ‘‘itech™for stone-throwing, from which many persons are suffering.
