Republican, demo* cratic, Intlependent and neutral, did herculean w irk lo the late state cani- pal^n. All thear papers advocated the advancement of certain men and measures. Some of these papers advo­ cated the (jtufm they espoused ably and vigorously, and uot a few exerted the Influence of,their columns success­ fully. All this editorial work wss done at a grjater or leas expense to each paper, and yet we wil' venture, taking the aggregate of the publications which used their oolnmm to elect can­ didates, that not one in every ten received either pecuniary or other t* qui volant for their efforts. Lawyers, doctors, teacher*, preaoh era, shoemakers, hod-carriers, profes­ sional and day laborers of every degree and station, all demand and re­ ceive pay for thel" work. Bat by general consent the newspaper Is expected to contribute months of service for absolutely nothing either in honor or emolument. Newspaper publishers who are ever exposing Im­ postors, shams and frauds, are them- selves more imposed upon by pretend­ ers than any other class. The politician will tell Che newspa­ per man that he should work for "1 he triumph of bia principles and sucoess of 1 he party." But does the politician seek office purely to vindicate a prtn l*le ? He would blush to acklowiedge hlmseit such a gudgeon. He wants '•he office because i gives him power and a good salary. Lop off the salary from the office and it would be found necessary to enact a law compelling certain persona to di«charg»* official duties or submit to a fl ie. There tin I a more mercenary class of meat tires unearth than politicians. Then there is the political orator, who. If a man of prominence, values his services durli.g a campaign at thousands of dollars. And he gets It or he will oat lift up his voice, ft la only the newspaper m -n who are ex pecteJto work for that mythical virtue, sarcastically called "poli'lcal principle,*1 without reward or recom pense, and it la not to the credit or the intelligence or penetration of tli' prufesblon that It* members do work for nothing.
