The following from the Washington Post is com
mended to the peTusa OF those editors who feel that
it fits their case: eve notice some of the Kansas
newspapers are disposed to indulge 10 severe COM
ment because the politicians of that state have
treated the Republican editors badly in the dstri-
button of the Offices But why do editors continue
to conduct their business enterprises for the benefit
Of politicians who seeking hOnors for them
selvesi No other successful business man permits
himself to be imposed upon by the Ofice-seekers
Perhaps little practical pumping such as the Kan
sas editors have been receiving will cause them to
cut loose from the politicians, and we are sure that
as soon they do this they win produce much bet
ter newspapers"
