THE last Congress struck a mean and
serious blow at the press of the coun-
try, which at the time it was pending,
should have raised perfect storm of
opposition all over the land But on
the contrary it hardly excited ripple
on the surface of the great ocean of
public opinion. In abolishing the
frankingprivilege which had been out
rageously abused, and grown to be a
nuisance, Congress also abolished the
free exchange of newspapers. As the
time approaches for the law to 90 into
force, we notice that our cotempora-
rics are waking up to the enOrmity of
the outrage which has been perpetrated
upon the press Of the entire country.
The Harrisburg State journal, motto
ing this matter, says:
There was no greater outrage ever COM
mittcd by Congress than that which de-
featcd the free exchange of newspapers
through the mails. Il was done as a piece
of revenge because the press almost unan-
imously advocated the repeal of the frank
ing privilege, which so incensed Congress
men, that they retaliated by repeating the
free exchangesof newspapers through the
mails. The newspapers OF the large cities,
which enjoy the advantage of immense
patronage, encouraged this repeal, hoping
thereby to break doWn country newspapers,
and thus give them 4 wider field of monop-
oily. 1t was only rare exceptions where
this was not done. The Philadelphia Press,
from the first, opposed the repeal, and did
all in its power to prevent the outrage, but
1t was unavailing. Now let the country
press unite, and there is no doubt the next
Congress will do what is right and proper
on this subject. 1t will only require a
plain statement to re-establish the free ex-
change of newspapers through the mails.
