The propI'etors OF THE STAR present to the
public its daily and weekly editions, resPec
lively, as not only the coH,ptetest and best, but
also the cheapest epitome OF events occurring
at the national capital, and Of general news as
well, to be found anywhere How well the
public understands this Is conclusively shown
by the exceptionally wide circulation they
both enjoy not In the City OF Washington
alone, but throughout all the States and Ter
ritories.
In order that the reader not now familiar
with the paper and It's strong bold on the pub
Lie may understand at q glance upon what
elements its great popularity is based. the
opinions OF some of its contemporaries as to
Its merits are appended. 1t is needless to add
that no person is so good Judge Of the value
Of any given newspaper as the men who con
duct newspapers themselves.
