The punctured Post continues to lsak iEssl

The punctured Posi- continues to leak hs0le-
want biliingsgate. 1t makes a hopelss ness
of the attempt to hold the Senators ssd Up
resentatives who voted for the AtkinDoa bill
between itself and public odium. Tn Bar
has set forth at length, especially in ~ ~ Of
December 18th, the great variety q Gays
in which the railroad secured vsees
for its measure, as by log-rollins trodes
and combinations. threats. blockade of Dis(Rict
legislation, and all the ingenious wire-pul1hg
of an able and adroit lobby, which docs not work
on such clumsy lines as to attempt to buy an0on-
Rress with money. The STAR has never 0ag-
gested that the great body of the railroad sop-
port was secured by the method Of direct pr
chase, and the Posts false pretence on this Sab-
ject is the result of desperate effort to dfsg
others into the same category with itself. Inre-
Spouse to the Posts picturesque blackguardbm
The STAR pointed out that while pretending to
be a public servant, it had become the mere
tool of a corporation, in the railroads inter
es: suppressing news, prostituting its editorial
columns, turning over its press gallery privi-
leges to the railroad lobby, disregarding obi
cations arising from association with
the board of trade. betrsying the pub
lie interest, spitefully abusing the
people Of Washington who complained
of the road. and through at least one accredited
representative working in the Congressional
lobby, while other representatives Of it by their
presence gave to the railroad lobby operations
at least the benefit of their moral support The
Post does not deny. much less attempt to dis
prove, these direct accusations against it, but
frags in an imaginary charge against Congress
and an imaginary injured pride in The STAR as
topics upon which a copious vocabulary of fish
wife epithets may safely be exhausted. I'm
doubtedly the Post would not dodge unless
compelled to. and would speak for itself if it
had an thing on that subject to say.
