The REVIEW has purchased the entire
plant, good will and subscription list of
the Denison journal. Possession was
given this noon and this issue of the
REVIEW was printed OF its new press.
For some time the REVIEW has been
planning to spend a large amount on
new machinery and instead it has pur.
chased the Journal plant. which is al.
most new and is in prime condition.
1t is the purpose of the REVIEW to sell
or trade the duplicate machinery re-
tanning the best in both Offices and ad.
ding such material as will give it the
most complete and finest equipped of
fee in western Iowa. The publication
of the Journal ceases with this week
and the REVIEW will fulfil all advance
paid subscriptions to the Journal on a
pro rata basis, sending the big twice.a a.
week paper for the same length of time
that the cash paid the Journal would
pay the REVIEW subscription. Where
a subscriber has been taking both pa.
pers he will be credited on the REVIEW
to the extent of his payment. The
next few weeks we shall be- very busy
getting the offices Strengthened out and
in running order but as suon as this is

the lest and neatest paper ever printed
in western Iowa. We understand that
Mr.. Cook expects to re-enter journalism
in another city and we wish him sue
cess in his venture. We believe that
the business men of Denison will be
glad to see the discontinuance Of a third
paper no matter by whom published.
1t is the liberal response of our sub.
scribers during this year which has
placed the REVIEW in a position to be
able to make this purchase and we
thank them for it. The REVIEW has
been as lenient as possible with those
subscribers whom it was obliged to take
OFF its list on account of non-payment,
but hereafter we shall be obliged in
order to meet the cash payments to Mr..
Cook to insist upon immediate settle
ment of all accounts, both subscription
and advertising. The REVIEW now
finds itself with a circulation of two
thousand. the largest of any county pa
per in western Iowa. AS an adver-
tising medium it will be by far the best
in the county and merchants can obtain
the best results by using its columns.
Both the REVIEW and Journal pos.
sessed fine job work plants and the
union of the best material in the two
offices will make the plant unexcelled.
In taking this step the editors have
fully appreciated its extent and gravity.
1t fully commits them to a newspaper
life and anchors them in Denison for
many years to come. They are glad to
be ian chored' however in such a town
and among such friends. The purchase
also commits them to a policy of rigid
economy to the end that all indebted.
ness incurred may be paid as quickly as
possible The task before them is a
serious one and they could not under.
take it did they not feel sure of the
help and support of the hundreds OF
loyal friends of the REVIEW.
Now, rally to the support of the Great
and Only. Make it your paper. Its
columns are open to anything you have
to say of public interest. Help US and
we will help you. And now with best
wishes to our readers, old and new. the
old REVIEW steps into a still wider
usefulness.
