Communicated. your the EDITOH PUOSPECTOIt,' ' Dear Sir:��� �� In last week's issue of esteemed contemporary, tCranbrook Herald, there is, what , is meant lo bo a description of \"The Pawnell Party\" purporting to be from ii Fort Steele cor-' respondent. , , , ,. This.person is evidently under the impression that ho is a smart man, but as you know, sir, most, smart men need common sense; in this case the common sense is sadly lacking, or the correspondent would have verified tho .spelling of his victim's name \" which is not, Pawnell. ' However, that is a minor point and not worth cavilling at, but under a heading in a newspaper one does expect to find some information relative to the heading; =jn this instance expectations would noti be realized, as, altho there is-an'effusion of some 78 lines, but' very few of these touch upon the subject of\" the ' party and, then only in a general way, the balance being expended on totally irrelevant matter and the correspondent's personalex- periences of moccasins and whiskey. One would gather that the correspondent views dancing in-the light of a crime, as it \"was done at the Opera House,'\" if so, there were a great many criminals; andrhis opinion evident' though veiled that the ,dance should have been held at Cranbrook is only on a par \"with the other solecisms. The first two paragraphs deserve an oleograph; for unadulterated impertinence they are unique and if is a great pity that the originator of the'phrase \"damned with faint, praise\"' is not alive to see how aptly it' fits this atrocity. It may be possible, that T have mistaken tho spirit of thncontri button, and that it is not, intend1 ed as a travesty, but if so it should be so stated as my sense of veiled humor is not abnormally developed. More seriously, it is a pity that my friend Mr. Simpson could riot command a correspon dent more suited to the occasion and one a little more endowed with a sense of courtesy. Fort Stuhus Rksidknt.
