admiralty cases, and he argued a

rHE HUSTLER OF ROME TUESDAY NOVEMBER 20 1894.
A NEWSPAPER TRUST
Pretty well everything has fallen
into the hands of trusts in tl esc
days, but a newspaper trust is'
rather a i ew tiling under the sun.j
It is reported that Senator Brice |
of Ohio ami several heavy capital-! ■
ists are now engaged in organizing:
one. They propose to get the con
trol of a big daily paper in every
important city of the country, from
Boston to Francisco.
The syndicate is now negotiating
for the purchase of the Boston 1
Traveller, a New York daily, sev-1
oral of the Scripps papers (pub-j
Isihed in Cleveland, Cincinnati i
and St. Louis), the Youngstown i <
Telegram and the Kansas City
World.
It has also options, it is said, < n I
journals in St. Joseph, Mo., Si. I
Paul. Minn., and I
It is barely possible than in one o. 1
two instances it will find it neci s
a y to start, new papers rat her tin.n
pay the high figures asked for the i
old properties.
The idea of a syndicate is that a ’
good deal of money can be saved |
in paper, news collecting and tele-1
graph tolls, and, as Senator Brice
knows something about the trusts,
he evidently sees a big profit ahead |
in this new venture.
To the people of Georgia, The :
Hustler of Rome wishes to say
that we have scornfuLy rejected '
all overtures made by the tru.-t
looking to the bottling up of its
big plant, in the iron grip of the
grinding kombinw. We shall kon
tinue to serve the paper, with all
the news, at 10 cents a week
