Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1878-02-21
A NEW NEWSPAPER ERIN.

John W. Siders, ex-county treas
urer. and Walter l.. Piper. until last
week foreman of this Office, have
formed a partnership, and purchased
a newspaper published at Plymouth,
Indiana. They go the last of the
present week, and will take control
OF the paper next week. We are
sorry TO lose these two gentlemen
from Macomb, but what is our loss
will be gain for the Hoosier city OF
Plymouth. The Journal believes the
new firm will be more than moder-
ately successful. Both of the gentle
men are energetic, active, industrious,
sober, and frugal-all elements OF
success ia the new undertaking. Mr.
Siders, who will have editorial con.
troll OF the paper is well educated,
thoroughly posted in the politics and
general affairs OF the country, and is
a ready and forcible writer. He is a
Republican i'm the broad term OF the
word--believes in the eternal right
ness OF his principles. and never de-
viates to the right or left for side-is-
sues when important campaigns are
going on. In him, the county to
which he Is going, and, indeed, the
State, will find an earnest and able
advocate or true Republicanism. In
matters OF local import, he will sup
port the interests OF the locality
in which he resides. In a word, he
has first class-ability, and although
he has never been In the chair editor
ial, the Journal will go security that
he will get up first-class paper,
just so soon as he gets used to the
harness. Walter Piper, as head OF
the macainical department, will fill
the bill. He is first class printer,
and has excellent taste and judgment.
A column would not tell all the good
qualities he possesses, and having spo-
ken in reference to him elsewhere, we
cut this paragraph short by saying,
we are proud that Walters education
as printer was received in the Jour
nal Office. The Journal will look
eagerly, yet at the same time conf
IDENTIFY, for the success OF the new
firm.-Macomb QlD Journal Feb IA:
John W. Siders, the staunch Re-
publican ex-county treasurer OF this
county, who is well known as a good
fellow and influential Republican, will
leave this county and take up his
residence at Plymouth, Indiana,
about February Goth. Walter Piper,
foreman in the Journal office, and
who is a good practical printer, will
also go to Plymouth, Ind, about the
same time. These gentlemen have
purchased the Marshall County Re-
PUBLICAN, at Plymouth, and will take
possession of the establishment about
the 21st of February. They are both
very clever and worthy citizens, and
the people OF Marshall county will
find them straightforward business
men, every way worthy of a liberal
patronage.-Macomb Eagle Feb. 9th

and Walter Piper ex-foreman OF the

believe they will achieve Bushnell
