Deadheading ON the Newspapers.

The Rome Sentinel rises to ex-
plain and its language is plain, and
is as follows:
There is no other business on
which the public levies such heavy
contributions as on the newspaper
publishing business. An organiza-
tom is getting up some kind
of festivities, for example. Itpays
for the use of grounds, pays for
music, pays for refreshments, gets
SO worth of tickets and "a worth
of bills printed either at q news
paper Office or somewhere else, and
then expects free advertising from
the paper to an extent actually
worth from 50 or So to $40. The
mere announcement Of o picnic,
sociable, or festival Is an advertise
ment, and ought to be paid for.
The result is that generous pro-
portion Of the porfi.s Of nearly all
entertainments of this kind is
money which rightfully belongs
to newspaper publishers. Then,
after the thing is over, the man
ayers will bring in long string Of
resolutions, with which to rob the
publisher of more valuable space.
The truth is that space in n news
paper represents money. 1t is
worth money to the publisher.
There is no more reason why he
should give it away than why a
merchant should give away his
goods. part of the space of the
paper is sold to business men for
advertising purposes, the rest of
the space is devoted to interesting
reading matter. On the last the
publisher depends for the attract
ions which shall sell his paper.
Either space represents cash
to him. Yet the business man who
buys space to the amount of 81
often buys gratuity of local space
to the amount of 81 or So, or even
more. The managers of festivals,
pienics or other home entertain
ments may not buy one cents
worth of space, but all the same
expect the free gift of several dol
lers' worth of space. The minister,
who never adverises, may want
space to the amount of dollars or
two weekly, for the advertisements
of coming sermons. The politician,
even though he forgets to keep his
subscription paid up, demands
column after columu Of valuable
space free. AMI rarely 50 much as
says thank You for it. For all
this lhe newspaper man, taxed
hkonl an other business man,
enjoys the high distinction Of
being regarded as a deadbead by
two-thirds of his neighbors."

The lives Of good men all remind
us to draw moral lessons there
from. Here is one somebody
draws from Brigham Young:
"The life of Brigham Young con-
tains an example which the rising
youth of this country would do
well to initiate. He was a poor
young man, and started with only
one wife. But as the result OF
frugal, industrious, and economical
habits, he leaves, at his death, no
less than nineteen"
