NEW PAPER.-We have received the
initial number of the Wichita Eagle.
published and edited by our friend NJ.
NJ. Murdoch, formerly of the Burlin-
game Chronicle.
What shall we say of the new Eagle !?
we feel unable to say anything too nice
about it. 1t took us by surprise. and
we can't keep our eyes of from it. In
a mechanical point Of view. it puts us
in mind of some carefully worked
scientific paper. We have never seen
such make up in any paper in the
state, and as to the press work-well
there is no use talking, it is not excell-
ed by anything of the kind we ever
saw. Added to all this the new prod
ICY is very ably edited, and all the Sc
lections fresh and inviting. We might
say great deal more about this mar
vel, but will conclude bv saving that
the Eagle is simply chef-d' 9arre in

WICHITA CITY EAGLE.-This is the
lanlc OF Marsh MurdOck's new paper,
ust started at Wichita. 1t is a large
light column sheet, printed on new
ypc throughout, and is perfect
beauty in Typography. The only OBJ
ection we could suggest in this respect
too much white space in its adver-
lsements. This seems to be a MUIR |
lock notion, though, and its all right.
The Eagle contains a large list of new
resi- Wichita advertisements, four or |
i've columns of good local items. an in
eresting description of the Arkansas
alley, and much other interesting
cading matter. The Eagle takes its
lace at once as the largest, best look
lg and leading paper of the South
est. Wichita will do well TO give it
good support, and from what we
now of that town and section of coun-
Y. we can have no doubt but that they
i'll do their duty in this respect.
larsh now has more "elbow ROOM"
nd will undoubtedly improve his OPP
ortunities. Long may the Eagle
xoop, and long may Murdoch give it
fe and beauty.-Emp0ri0 News.
