in concise and explicit terms, states
the whole cast in a nut-shell—the
paper is now a thing of the past. of
The News at one time was one
the most influential papers in the
tenth district, but the offensive and
unfair manner in which it assailed
the Populist party when it was first
organized drove from it many him
dred subscribers, who otherwise no
doubt would have cont niied will
the paper.
Boon after this the Journal Com¬
pany was organized, and since then
it has been evident to the most hope¬
ful of its patrons that sooner or later
it would be compelled to fold the
banner field; of journalism phenomenal and retire from been

over vears
been turned in the direction of the
“Dead Sea,” and after an eventual
voyage made an anchorage. Its sub¬

dred when it suspended publication.
Such is the brief history of our
once powerful adversary. May its
rest be peaceful.
