Branching Out and Spreading.
The San Francisco CALL has been
branching out and spreading out at a
great rate since the late change of owner
ship, and now it is about to become yet
more prominent by having its offices,
headquarters and whole establishment in
the tallest and one of the most imposing
looking buildings of the Bay City. Claus
Spreckels the millionaire sugar king, has
recently purchased the lot on the corner
of Market and Third streets, and pur-
poses to erect upon it building fifteen
stories high, and THE CALL will be quar-
tered therein. The omposing-rooms
are to be on the thirteenth and fourteenth
floors, and the printers will be about as
high as they will ever get unless they are
made angels and are given wings to fly.
The building will be first class in every
particular, both in adornment and other
wise, and will be a marked feature of San
It
large part of the building is to be fitted up
for offices, and the very uppermost floor
will be occupied as restaurant. The
CALL as we have said, is spreading and the
new move it proposes to make shows Its
spirit of go-aheadativeness.-Y reka Union.

upward flight has already attained an ele-

unclean" for such scavengers as delight in
gathering it in. We note with pride that
it is to have marble palace, the greatest
and handsomesu newspaper building in
the world. Such a magnificent building
of such gigantic proportions, so perfect in
all its appointments, towering heaven
ward, high above all its competitors, en-
blematic of higher and nobler aspirations,
lifting journalism up out OF the filthy
pools of low sensationallsm and placing 1T
on the solid rock of truth and purity, is
fitting place in which to publish the recon
structed, rejuvenated CALL.-Lompoc Jour-
nal.
1t Will Loom Above Everything.
THE CALL building, about to be erected
in San Francisco by Claus Spreckels, will
be the most magnificent structure of that
city. 1t is to be fifteen stories and 315 feet
high, surprising in height the tallest
building in the West. 1t will occupy the
corner of Third and Market streets and
will loom up in the shape of 75-foot
square tower with fine dome surmount-
ing it. The location is one of the best bust
ness corners in the City and the building
when completed will dwarf everything sur
rounding 1t. 1t will be a fit habitation for
one of the foremost Pacific Coast journals.

A marble palace, 80 feet high, is to be
built for THE CALL by Claus Spreckels on
the corner of Third and Market streets,

will be the finest IN the metropolis, it can
be none too fine for that really great news

his new home we country editors will
hardly know whether to call or not. Ii
we do we can brush the hayseed off on the
marble fioors.-Healdsbur Enterprise.

thing like steen stories high. 1t is to be
located on the corner of Market and Third
