The importance Of this subject to all
in the business far exceeds any topic or
dinarily discussed by typographical

oughly understood by every compositor

TELEGRAPH MONOPOLY VS..
PRINTERS.

R. FL. Curl, of Cincinnati, in a COM
m%unication to the Indianapolis Typo
graphical Journal, calls attention to the
great benefit a genuine government pos
tai telegraph would be to printers. He
estimates the number of union printers
at rs, 1000 to 10000, with Situations for
$1,000" while cities with $4,000 to 5Oo,-
600 inhabitants have but two morning
dailies. The results of a government
telegraph on printers and telegraphers
he thus outlines:
.Letthe government take charge of the
telegraph, and away will GO the monopo-
listic Associated Press, franchises and all.
Everybody could get telegraph news at the
same price, newspapers Gould then run
without the assistance of Jay Gould andthe
Western Union company; telegraph opera
tors of ability would find employment at
coed salaries; linemen and all connected
with the business would be benefited. Rail-
road accidents would not occur so often, for
the board of examiners would not employ
school children. Let US then push this kind

While the attorneys for the plaintiff

There were eighty.four witnesses on
