STRAINED RELATIONS.

The Cincinnati Enquirer is after the
Evening Penny Post of that city and
threatens one cent evening paper as
a retaliation for the Post evening edi-
ton now sent out with the next morn
ing date line, wlich goes out on even
trains to cities within 200 miles and
sold early next morning on the streets
is in advance Of other papers as a news
paper of that morning date.
The Press, of Cleveland, is inviting
a similar conflict by this method,
which, to say the least, is questionable.
daily newspaper published yesterday
with the date line of to-day is a trick
and a fraud on the purchaser and read
er as well.-Ohio Newspaper Maker.
This trick of the Post has been work
ed in this section of the State for all
it is worth. BY dating its edition a day
ahead it is able to reach this territory
earlier than any other paper, apparent
ly, and thus reap tie advantage of be-
ing first in the field. The reading
public have been slow to believe that
they were being imposed upon in this
manner, but they are gradually finding
it out and the circulation and influence
of the Post is on the wane. If there is
any way to do it, newspaper publishers
should be compelled to treat tie public,
who place so much confidence in them,
with the strictest honesty. journalism
is one branch of business which should
be clear Of fakes. The people, who are
supreme, owe it to themselves not to
permit Themselves to be imposed upon.
The newspaper is the source of their
information and it should be as reli-
able as it is possible to make it. No
penalty is too severe for a newspaper
publisher who wilfully perpetrates a
fraud on his readers. This applies
equally to the dating of editions and
the publication of bald fakes as legiti-
mate news
