THE NEWS" TO ITS READERS.
The founders of the News announce
with pleasure that Messrs. w. c. Bryant
and Howard X. Stokes are hereafter to
be associated with them in its conduct,
the former as vice president of the joint
stock corporation now in process OF for
nation, the latter as business manager
and treasurer.
A word Of introduction Mr.. Bryant
is a director of the United Press, a mem
ber of the executive committee OF the
American Newspaper Publishers Asso-
citation and has been for seventeen years
business manager of the Brooklyn Times,
the chief Republican paper in popula-
ton Of nearly a million souls. He is the
president of the great Hanover Club in
Brooklyn and is probably as well known
as any newspaper publisher in America.
Mr. Stokes, as publisher of the Ffndn-
cial Nelrs of this city, has won reputa-
tion as one of the best authorities ON
financial questions in New England.
After its present issue the Financial
.NeicS viii cease separate publication, the
title being continued as department of
the PROVIDENCE News. This announce
ment is sufficient guarantee that our
Money and Business" column will,
under its new name, be distinguished by
ability of high order, by accuracy and
by keen, discriminating Judgment, as 1t
has been in the past.
The enlargement of the NEWS, so
anxiously demanded by many of its
friends, is not far off. The Republican
daily of the Republican Capital of Re
publican State will be equal to its oppor-
tunities.
This is fitting time and occasion TO
add that the incorporators of "the Provi-
dence News Co." will be absolutely in
dependent and untrainmeled in their
ownership and dictation of its policy.
While we are grateful to many prominent
Republicans of the State for advice and
encouragement, we must repudiate in
the most emphatic terms any suggestion
or insinuation that any one except the
present publishers and the gentlemen 10
be formally associated with them as
above explained can in any way control
or influence its columns. We have no
silent partners" We are the organ of
the Republican party as a whole, not of
any individual or set of indi~~-als, here
or elsewhere.
