LOCAIj NEWS.
With this ittsuo of The Pally News
and Umpqua Valley Newa the preudnt
owner and editor severs his connec
tion with the two papers, the entire
jilimt having been purchased by Mr.
Carl D. Shoemaker, of Columbus.
Ohio, who tukcH completo control
of the businoBB on January 1, 1912.
In Introducing tho now editor to
the many friend uud patrons of thin
paper and its thousand of readers
wo wish to unsure thein there will
be no material change In the policy
of The Newa a impor for the people
first, Just and all the time. Mr.
Shoemaker takes tho reins without
a single handicap uud will be free
to express his views when the oc
casion demands for Lho greatest
good to the groat oh t number. His
(tuuliflcatlons for tho duties before
him are unsurptimted and ho will not
be found neglectful In giving to the
people of Kosehurg and Douglas
county a paper they will tuko more
than the ordinary pride In support
ing. We bespeak for him the volume
of patronage that has been a con
spicuous feature in making tho two
editions Issued from The News of
fice such a pronounced success from
every standpoint and recognized by
all as tite leading publications of the
county.
in taking over tho business the
now proprietor makes no change in
tho- present efficient corps of em
ployes now with Tho News, each and
every one being retained at his or
her regular post of duty.
Tho retiring management wishes
at this tlmo to thank his many
staunch friends and supporters for
thoir good will, loyalty and patron
age during his six years In the news
paper hnslnesB In this city. To them
Is due much credit for the success of
The Nows. Whether or not our ef
forts in conducting tho two papers
havo met with general approval it Is
not for us to say, the public may he
tho Judge. From a financial n( mid
point, however, tho present editor
hus no complaint to make and re
tires from one of tho best paying
newspaper plants in tho state.
Though we regret to leave tho news
paper field u continuous service
of twenty-live years In tho harness In
quite sufficient for lho ordinary per
son and In disposing of tho two news
papers we fool wo havo placod them
lit the keeping of saTo hands.
Some enemies have lieen made, but
the numbor of closo and substantial
"friends fur outnumber them. Mis
takes, in some Instances, havo been
recorded, but all In all it has been
our aim to "deliver the goods" uud
In a great many Instances wo have
"cut the mustard."
To our rrlomls and enemies alike
wo make our final how and retire,
for the present, from uetlvo news
paper work.
