WASHINGTON, May IA 1907.
What is Said Regarding the Reiease OF JEFF.

Tho release Of Je Davis has given rise TO that very

President johnson directly chargeabe with the release
JEFF Davis and upon this assertion they proceed 10

tinguished But the contrary, there those who
declare that the President had to do with

with any else 10 the TO be pursued be
fore the Court elsewhere in relation 10 the case.
Among those who thus express themselves s Reyerdy

classes to be that the discharge is rather t
umph Of the laws Of the country and OF the magnsnm

The Advertising Public aud the New York
preHe.

Press.
Some Of our city contemporaries are subject
periodically to fits Of bad humor regarding
their circulation and advertising patronage.
They grumble and growl at one time because
the people neglect to buy their papers in sufi-
cient number, and at another tims because the
business men Of the metropolis will not Oil
their columns with advertisements. The secret
of their want of success may be discovered in
the character of their complaints. One of them
charges that portion of the city press advo.
Gates free trade doctrines, in order to secure
the advertising patronage of the importers of
New York. To this another replies that the
merchants and importers of this city, as class,
are the poorest advertisers who patronize the
city journals. The rates which these adver-
tisers are willing to pay are so low that only
journals Of very limited circulation can afford
to take such advertising" A newspaper that
turns its columns into putting medium to
catch advertisements, or that alters lis rates
and cuts down its prices according to the Gus
toner 1t finds, thus making an unfair distinc-
tion between its advertisers, can never hope to
establish its business upon a substantial fcun-
dation. Yet many of our contemporaries cannot
rise above the narrow idea that a journal must
laud or condemn an undertaking, according as
1t may or may not be advertise in its columns.
The HERALD has no complaint to maxi,
either regarding its circulation or advertising
patronage, and is not disposed to grumble and
snarl at the merchants and importers of New
York, or at any other class Of business men,
for neglect or niggardliness in advertising. We
do not beg patronage from any person. II
merchants, importers, shippers, auctioneers,
house agents, boarding house keepers, clerks,
servants and the public generally desire to ad-
yertise in, the HERALD, they know our rates,
and must pay them in cash over the counter
before line Of their advertisements can ap-
pear II they did not know that it is an ad-
vantage and profit to them to advertise with
US, we have no thought that they would do So
AS it is, while our slow coach contemporaries
are fretting and growling at the people be-
cause they will not patronize their papers as
literally as they desire, we find, by the steady
increase Of our advertisements and circulation
that the system established by the HERALD is
fast working great revolution in business in
this city, and that our columns are rapidly
becoming the direct means of communication
between the principals in all descriptions Of
business transactions. Our dieconsentel
neighbors should bear in mind this fact-that
If newspaper is well conducted, and in enter
prise, intelligence and independence is fully
mp to the standard Of the age and the expecta-
tions Of the people, it viii command as ex-
tended circulation, as profitable an advertis-
ing patronage and as wide an influence as are
at present enjoyed by the New YoaK HER AID
