A DEAD. HEAD" EDITOR SPEAKING Our
The following, from the Cleveland (Ohio)
Leader, is respectfully commended to the seri-
Gus consideration of railroad companies:
GA gentleman pretty well posted informs
US that the amount of dead heading upon the
four principal roads that centre in this CITY
will exceed 100000 per annum; that is, If
the dead heads paid full fare the roads would
receive S1O0, 900 therefrom. The dead head
ing on the c. c., and G. and E. roads is esti
mated at $50 900 per annum; the c. and T.
road at $40, 900, the Bellefontaine, Pittsburg.
and Akron at $4,000. The idea in the heads
of stockholders is that the editorial fraternity
srODge the most of this enormous sum ont of
the companies. But We will demonstrate their
mistake The whole number of passes granted
to the press Of this city is less than a dozen
per road. A careful inquiry satisfies us that
each OF the dozen persons representing the
don't travel on these roads to exceed SIS each
per snnum; but call it twenty dollars, making
sum total of $40 on all the roads, or one
dead-heading. -

party papers; indeed 90 prostituted
has become the lay and secular pres.
fof the country, that where there arr
educated and sensible people, they
. look to the Newspaper more to get the
contorted and distorted views Of the
editor, who writes with a view 10 his
own selfinterest; than for the pur-
pose Of obtaining correct and logical
deductions from well established prin-
cipals. Hence the press Of the re-
public has taken the lead in ultra lev
cling doctrines, and lost its moral
tone, by becoming the organ ofdema-
gogues on one hand, and fanatics on
the other. With an intelligent COM
lnunity the mere sectarian and party
organ, has ceased to command any
influence, because the public are aware
Of the manner in which they are got
ten up, and supported-by interested
partizans, leagued together, in nine
case out Of ten, for the purpose Of OBJ
tanning pecuniary benefit and for ad-
vancing mercinary views.
What, may we ask is the "Organ
Of q partys'' Take the profitable
brass trumpet Of the administration
and come on down to the very small

this and that Leader and say to him
I'VE want your name for fifty, on this
list, to get up the Trumpet Blast Of
Freedom, for the party!' And is not

- l
the politician says to him
self well the fifty will pay good in
tent-I shall want to go to Congress,
or to the next Convention to make a
Constitution-or to the very elevated
upper house Of the Legislature, and
then this fifty subscribed to the Trum-
pet Blast, will return to me with COM
pound interest" Is not this the ar
yument! No town in the glorious
Union can do with less than two pa
osrs; there must be a Wing to follow
The seHstyled Democrat, wherever il
,oes. and deny every thing that is {
aid. Besides this, the same party is I
'ot always in power, and when the
opposition is IN, it is suicidal affair
0 give it any Of the little spoils that i
