Type: 
newspaper
Genre: 
journalism
Abstract: 

Not so kind words for the moribound Saturday Press. The Atlas bashes it, saying that there will be no advances from puffers to a paper with no circulation. Also the paper is criticized for its own persistent promotion of Whitman and other Bohemian artists.
