Above, In . general form, We have given
tscslps reasons why the NATIONAL RppUpLruLN
published In the City OF Washington, possesses
greater facilities for obtaining all the import.
ant news Of the day. OF every descri.tiou. than
any other Jour AL in the United States, The
highest evidence Of this, which relieves vs from
the charge of cVotIsm. 10 the fact witnessed ali
over the nation daily (by those who care 10 OF
serve it) that the leading, widest circulated
and most influential Journals In the United
States gather the most important Departmental
neus, especially OF our military and naval
operations, official and otherwise, from the
columns OF tho NATIONAL REPUBLICAN. ThIt
10 true In face OF the well known fact that
many Of the proprietors Of those Journals pay
enormous sums OF money yearly 10 I" hsso
elated Press" add Especial Correspondence
90 called, 10 furnish them with the current
news OF the day. We regret TO say, IN thif
connection, that those correspondents do moi
always inform their employers that they art
not the authors OF many OF the most important
dispatches they send over the wires al an ex
pense Of four cents pr toord, by crediting them
10 the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, as they In JUS
ico should do. We especially think they
should credit " when they encroach so far as
10 telegraph our editorials, bodily, as being
uteir o,sn compositions. However, We beg par.
don for this complaining depression, and will
not deny that We observe, In all this unfair.
ncss, Q compliment TO our industry on the part
Of these plagisrists. .- +.
Politically the REPUBLICAN will support as
earnestly as possible the civil and military
policy Of the present Administration, while
that policy Ia for FKHkDoA In Its broadest and
highest sense, and against Sav-ry. WAsn "a,
present, or any other adm nlstratiOsi pt,rsaes
