...CRIMSON has reason to be sad. Yet, after all, as Shakespeare aptly rimed-"Imperial Caesar dead and turned to clay can't stop a hole to keep the wind away". Another will undoubtedly take the place so long maintained by the followers of the Ibis. Indeed, the communication in this column is greatly at variance with the opinion of the CRIMSON in the matter. Though well able to cooperate with the Advocate in financing the bankrupt publication, the CRIMSON fears that any such move will but add to Lampie's already over heavy lead of debts.
