Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1864-01-24

NEWSPAPER Il AhllLr SgUAhltELs-- ucIo are
three Abolition newspapers published in
this city-two dailies, the Journal and E1-
press, and weekly, the Union League. The
last named in its issue of the 14th inst,
quoted the following from the Cincinnati
Gazette: ,.,,,s-
Mr.. Howells from the Joint Committee on the pub
Ication Of Official Proceedings, reported that the
daily papers Of the city bid per thousand ems as fol-
lows:
Ohio State Journal. l....................ss cents.
Ohio Statesman .......................6 10 cents.
Daily Express ......................... .oI cents.
The report was laid on the table.
Upon this quotation the League made
nearly column and half of remarks, in
which occurred the following paragraph:
But there is funny aspect to this subject to which
everybody has read heard Of the stupidity Of the
ostrich that imagines itself concealed from the view
Of the pursuing hunter when only its head is thrust
under the sand We should not wonder if the par
ties TO the above bids bad, as boys, taken hearty
laugh when reading Of the habits Of the bird in
and d Ss them Ts9ssss e a d
nal and Espress imagine that the public is not aware
Of the fact that their papers are owned and control
crate bds for each paper one four cents higher per
1000 ems than the other-as If they were made out
by separate parties desirous of competing with each
at as low rate inone paper in the other Mali
cous persons might in this an attempt at 1ecep
tion and be disposed to characterize il as such but
far be it frofHus TO indulge in such uncharitable
judgmentl
The Journal on the 18th inst. came out
with the following double-leaded notice,
directly under its editorial head: y

The Express of the same date had the fol-
lowing article, the first in its editorial
column lsR18n3.} sq9iG3I

could be farther from the truth. The propriecrs q
the State Journal have not cent interest in the Eo-
press-ner has the proprietor of the Ecpress any in
such jointure in the management Of the two papers
They arc wholly and entirely distinct both in Interest
taitoas and false but meanly impertinent as made
TO cover imputed charge of impositono the pub
lc; The wit as well as the veracity Of the league
sadly at fault. ''
The League of the 2lst inst, under the
head OF Dignity In Boots, quotes the no
tice given above from the Journal, and ex-
apends over column Of editorial upon it,
We make the following extracts from the
Leagues article: sa5A m.
dp"A certain newspaper in this city called the On
