Wolff, George D., Norristown, Pennsylvania, to Henry F. Brownson, Detroit, Michigan, 1889 October 11

 Item
Identifier: CBRH III-3-c

Scope and Contents

He agrees entirely with Brownson's idea of allowing writers the largest freedom consistent with prudence, but he was entirely ignorant of what the committee had to do to keep "furious Franks and fiery Huns" from not shouting or throwing dynamite promiscuously. He was personally prepared to submit to any restrictions. He is glad to learn Brownson thinks well of his paper; he discusses possible changes. He warns Brownson against news gatherers who might not be trusted as James Doyle of the United Press ; Brownson should also consider subordinates who may be cajoled, cheated, or bribed. P.S. Is Wolff a member of the congress? He has received no notice or invitation. It is possible that communications to his office have not come to his attention. He asks about readers of the papers. :: III-3-c A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
