following: "As the first move in the
direction Of uniting and harmOnizing the
party for the great political struggle Of
l,J2, IL has been decided to consolidate
the interests OF all Republican papers
10 This city. The State TT'jb1tne and the
N0r will in the near future be cOnsOli-
dated and published under the name of
tle St1r-Tribtne. This conclusion has
been reached after thorough canvass
o. the interests OF the party and consul
ta,.on with leading Republicans"
Under the new Arrangement M. 3.
Re0er, of the Tribune, will own two
thirds Of the stock, and will have charge
Of the paper. The Star has been con-
stantIy losing ground, both as news
paper and as a political paper. and Re
Der has been quietly waiting mis- time to
START q Republican daily. 1t IS under
stood that the Star. which has been los
lug money right along, was put into the
new concern at a low figure, and in this
Say Re0er gets the entire Republican
1a.d at little cost. The first paper un-
Der the new management is expected
next Monday II will be reduced some
rom the present size.
