Unjust attack on Senator Lea and the press scene
The Herald rebukes a recent Banner editorial condemning Senator Lea for presenting a memorial from Knoxville temperance opponents. It argues Lea acted legitimately as a U S senator representing Tennessee and defends editorial staff changes and Nashville paper economics. The piece also notes Jacksonian Fresh Car Josh and White Lime shipments. It discusses newspaper costs and urban daily paper viability in Nashville and Jackson.
