Some Valuable Newspaper Property


Some Valuable Newspaper Property.
New York Mall and Express.
Millions of dollars have been sunk
In newspapers In this city, and there
is NO easier way to waste money than
in newspaper ventures; but II is new.
ertheless true that there Is also no
surer or swifter method of accumu-
lnting wealth than in a judicious in
vestment of capital In the produciio
Of daily newspaper. The most
profitable newspaper In the world,
The London Times, is valued at 1926,
10000, and the most profitable in
France, the Petit Journal, earns
100000 year net, although dozen
years ago II was insolvent.' The Lon
don Standard is valued at SIC, OOO, 600.
The Daily News at S6.OOO,0OO, and
80, 100000 would not buy the Tele-
graph, 1t is said. IL may be ques-
toned whether New York has any
5000, 900 newspapers, perhaps, but II
has several which 1t would take ST.
100000 or more to buy. Mr.. North,
Of the Utica Herald, reported in his
volume of statistics of the newspa-
per press, issued from the govern
ment press a year ago, that the gross
products of the newspaper establish
ments in the United States amounts
to $S7 ,43l.l32. and the statement af-
fords basis of speculation as to the
aggregate amount of capital repre-
sented by the newspapers of this
country.

| A reporter met ex-senator Johns
ton of Virginia and asked him about
the political prospects in that state.

cratic success he replied, ain both
the state and legislative tickets" Lee
Twill have good majority for COVER
nor.s
@But some democrats seem to be
doubtful as to the result of the legis-
lature,r suggested the reporter.
al can't understand why they should
feel so,r was the reply. SIN the state
senate, of the twenty members who
hold over, fifteen are democrats.
There are forty members of the SEN
ate, and half of them hold over. Now,
In addition to the margin between
fifteen and five that we have holding
over, the majority of state senators to
be elected are in strong democratic
districts. For instance, two senators
are to be elected in Richmond, one
in Augusta, one In Albemarle aud
Greene, one in Lynchburg and Camp
bell, one in Washington and Smythe,
and one in the Wythe district. Now,
these are all reliable democratic dis
tricts, in which there eau be no ques-
ton us TO the result, and there are
others, besides those l have NELL
toned, SO you can see that II Is i'm
possible for us TO lose the senate. In
the lower house we had two-thirds
majority In the last legislature. and
we have every assurance Of several
gains this year."
Ex-senator Jonston lived for many
years in southwestern Virginia, the
battle ground of the present fight,
and he has paid special attention to
that section of the state. He said he

democratic leaders of the southwest,

senator, "two prominent democrats of

franchisenent of the negro at the

is treated usually iu that most mis-
chievous rhetorical form which pro-
ceeds on falschood as on an &C.
kuowledged and undisputed fact.
There never was grosser misrepre-
scntation than TO say directly or by
innuendo that the negro does not
have his rights at the ballot box in
the south as full aud as complete as
any white man. 1t is absolutely true
in Texas and we have no reason to
know that it is not so in the other
southern states, that the exercise Of
the political franchise by tho negro is
absolute and undisturbed. The me-
groes poll in every election larger
proportional vote than the whites.
They esteem the privilege higher
than white men do and will leave
their work and crops to vote when
many white men will neglect that
duty to attend to their private bust
ness. Nor are they content will
