Newspapers and Railroads

just because the state or Name
has announced that newspaper
men, when on business trips, may
ride free on the railroads, there
has been some discussion Of the
pass proposition again. Editor
Leach, of the Leesburg CONNER
cial, thinks that it is time for the
state Of. Florida to once more adj
init the right Of railroads to ex-
change mileage for advertising.
He thinks that denial of this right
lis class legislation-which is very
likely true-and suggests that
newspapers ought to have the
same right to barter as other IN
Istitutions and Individuals. Edl-
tor Russell of the Palatka News,
thinks that it would be best to
leave well enough alone. lie
doesn't deny that the denial OF a
right to barter is class legislation,
but says the way things are ne Is
better pleased to get real money
for his railroad advertising
which is all right, so far as 1t goes
But formerly almost every news
paper in the state carried rail
road schedule or some railroad IN
formation. The space was plenty
and when the editor chose to tax
an annual trip to the county sea
Tor to Jacksonville or Tampa TN
railroad didn t have to put on any
lextra ears for his convenience
but Editor Russell says that 1T !
mot the style any longer for news
paper folks to barter And ther
he makes mistake. 1t is NOR
than likely that the News doe
IsonIe of it even yet. Certalnl
Ievery other newspaper IN IN
country does-and will do SO, a
long as other people have thing
The Punta Gorda herald. [volume] (Punta Gorda, Fla.) 1893-1958, 1915-09-09

that newspaper folks need, and
are willing to exchange. The old
pass system may have been abused
but the general public was a little
better off on account of it-and
this hardly needs further expla-
nation. -Times-Union Short Talks
