The two
Marys. Mrs. Leathem of the “Molong Express” is an out-and-out Protectionist,
while the other Mary, the wife of Garland, M. L.A., of the "Carcoar
Chronicle," is a straight from-the-shoulder Freetrader-ess.

Now, whisper! Are the Molong and Carcoar journalists going to enter into
one long, loving, everlasting, indissoluble union?
We know you're not a' Marion
' sort, but, then, you never know, do you -?-
But the Express is behind the times in alluding to you as ' Mary ', and
you ask why it does so? Well, years ago as you know, the Bulletin christened
the pair of you.
No, not you; you! were not in Carcoar then; you had not then attained
the sweet bliss of living in a community where fearlessness is in danger of
having its head punched.
I well remember reading the following re the Molong Express in
the Bulletin:' Item from The Molong Marion:'
The holiday passed off quietly in
Molong; there were NO sports, but there was A cricket Match.
So we; learn that
a cricket match is not Sport, but we KNOW WHAT IS SPORT, though – Reading “The
Molong Marion”!

RECOLLECT,
I AM. HERE
Thus The Molong Express of Saturday: In a playful
manner, Luny, of The Carcoar Mary — that is, Chronicle—asks why the Express
styled his mangle Carcoar Mary? Ah? well?
Many years ago — perhaps before
Bachelor Luny was — we all affectionately knew the Chronicle as Carcoar Mary,
And that is why, No more.
Right you are, Molong Marion. I thought you might
have been having a sly hit at this now-mighty mangle, by insinuating that it
was now being conducted on Old- Woman Lines.'
I consider The Molong Express afar-and-away
more-readable and better-paying journal than The Orange Tommy-Rot, and so do
many more. Even the lately-started Orange little bi-weekly, The Sun, shows
indications of receiving more solid support than The Tommy-Rot. Vanity will not
be countenanced by those who can accord solid support to newspaper proprietors.
Time will tell.

As East Orange is a large town, with a Municipality, but with newspaper
to agitate for its wants and requirements, I am thinking seriously of opening a
Branch Office there shortly.
If I haven't got enough business, I can, if that way inclined, rob Messrs Edwards, Dunlop &
Co., Ltd., and other Sydney and English and American Printers' Brokers out of
their honest and just dues.
Any fool can run countless papers at —Other
People's Expense

Thus last
Saturday's MOLONG “EXPRESS”
That old
chestnut about a loving couple, Black-Tracker Byrne and the Christmas Party at
a Northern station is working its way through the papers.
It has just
turned-up amongst the original matter of a Parks paper.
What d'ye think o' dat,
'Old Sport ', mine friend?

A Freckled Nose!
Do you know
her?
