In regard to tlnit annyinons letter which came to me some time ago, via ecliooner from Florence, Sun Francisco ami tlie W est ami which Mr. Hcott Morris knows so well bow to describe, although be declares to me, “ I never seen it.’’ Tlie letter is on exhibition along with several others in the same hand-»riling; there was a faint at tempt nt disguise, yet the comparison is very eiiBy. Now although there is no doubt in my mind as to tlie author of tlie stuff, I regret having mentioned anything about it in the W est . I am aware that such discussions are not only uninteresting, to the reading pub lic, but disgusting as well. G ail M aker . [In justice to ourselves we wish to say a word or two concerning the above letter. A communication from “ Occa sional” which appeared in our columns last week stated that Gail Maker “ a l leges that the editor of the W est joins her in the opinion that Occasional is the author” of tlie anonymous criticism referred to. As we we were in Eugene when said communication was received we knew nothing about that statement till it appeared in print. Some months ago we received at the Florence post office what appeared to be a letter addressed to Gail Maker care of the W est . We enclosed it in another enve lope pro|ierly addressed and mailed it to tlie owner. A few days later Gail Maker called and showed us tlie anony mous criticisms referred to, which she had just received from the post office and which it proved were contained in tlie package sent to her in care of tlie W est . Some speculation as to tlie author of said criticisms followed during which the names of several persons were mentioned and among others wo sug gested that of Scott Morris. We have had no conversation with Gail Maker on the subject since that time. Some weeks ago Scott Morris stated over liis own signature in the columns of the W est that lie did not write the criticism and did not know who it was that did. Since that time we tiave given the mat ter no further thought till our name was mentioned. Now that we have printed the same number of articles from both parlies in reference to this dispute we hope botli will drop the matter, so far as the W est is concerned, as personal affairs become uninteresting to the pub lic when dwelt upon too long.
