If Is now certainty that Raleigh viii,
Mt an early date, have another daily news

It will be a morning paper, taking the
full Geographic dispatches.
In notifies it will be Republican,
though friendly to the Popuhsts, and ad-
vocating a continuation of the co-opera-
t;on arrangement between those TWO par
ties in State and county affairs.
This is the prospectus of the 1laiiy
Tr;hnne" for that is the name by which
i viii be known, as given me by Mr. z.
Mr.. Kenyon of Asheyille, who was here
Yesterday. Mr.. Kenyon will be large
stockholders in the paper and Is now the
active manager OF the whole enterprise.
After. the paper starts he viii be its bust
ness manager. and Mr.. ". NJ, Haywood,
of Heplersonville, viii be It's editor.
Mr.. Kenyon Is a native OF Illinois. but
came to North Carolina several years
ago and settled at Hendersonville. in
Henderson county. where he soon ac-
ouire1 control Of the Times, Republic
can weekly paper. which he has just sold
~ Republican from Iowa. In charge of
fhe Times as editor he placed
Mr. W. w. Haywood. who Is now To be-
come editor Of the Tribune. Mr.. Hay
wood. like Mr.. Kenyon. is a Western
man. being a native of Missouri. He is
= newspaper man Of experience. having
been for several years editor Of the Com
meresal-Appeal at Memphis, Tenn.
This enterprise. Mr.. Kenyon says, viii
10 backed by a strong joint-stoek COM
pany with $50, COO paid in capital. Though
he viii not now divulge the names OF the
IL 4 ny
and practical business men in North Car
DINA. and that If necessary larger cash
capital can be easily raised.
He says further that he will equip his
office with modern apparatus, making 1t
an up-fo-date paper in every respect.
Three Linotype machines, similar to those
used by the News and Observer, have al
ready been ordered. The first paper is
to be issued between January the LIST and
the 10th.
THE STATE PRINTING.
Mr.. Kenyon was asked why he had
changed his mind in regard to the place
of publication for his paper, having first
selected AsheviIle.
We'll" he replied, .'you see Raleigh
is more central and besides 1t is the cap
ital 1t is almost absolutely necessary
to have a Republican daily paper at Raj
eigh. now that both the State and the
nation are under the control Of that par
ty."
1t is generally understood. however,
that the cause of Mr.. Kenyon's change of
mind in this matter was caused by the
public printing. 1t is his intention,
he says. to put in a large, thoroughly
eouipped Job Office. With this he will
be prepared to do the public printing
without sub-letting it or sending it out
of the State and there can be no doubt
that he will be too modest to ask for 1t.
But he will have to do more than ask:
he will have to fight for it. There are al
ready two other candidates in the held
and both OF them have good backing
Stewart Bros. (Reps), the present public
printers. and Barnes Bros. (Pops) The
Stewards are preparing also to move their
Office to Raleigh, so that they can do
the State printing here instead Of having
II sent to Winston, as heretofore. Yes
terday they rented the office in the Pull
len building now occupied by the Ludden
& Bates Music store. So another hot
fight on the public printing question
may be expected.
This morning Mr.. Kenyon leaves for
Wilmington. 1t is understood that he goes
there to consult Judge Russell in regard
- 49, ,,o,,ar If 10 Y,ronnSnd to start here.
