community.
| Now Shines Brighter.
| From Views
The Evening Star of this city cannot only
be proud of its good equipment and repute,
| which are credit to it as an enterprising
| newspaper, but of its magnificent new
building. which is also a credit to the
| architects and builders. To have predicted
such successful future and such pa,atial
home for The Star when, in 1860, it was a
rather blurred print and but puny and in
significant four-page sheet, containing
barely enough advertising matter and other
food to pay for its then very modest ex-
penses. one would have been accused of
spanning expectations with the rainbowS of
fancy. But be 1t in old working
| dress. may The Star ever shine for the peo-
| pie of Washington in Its advocacy of all
matters pertaining to their interest, but all
the more to those sterling principles which
have enabled this our country to step into
its rightfu! estate a world power for all
things beneficial to humanity.

The Product of Honest journalism.
From the Norfolk Landmark.
Last Saturday The Washington Evening
Star threw open to the public its magnifi
cent new nine-story marble building on
Pennsylvania avenue and 18th street. 1t is
not strange that our contemporary should
feel pride in this gratifying product of the
honest and conservative Journalism of
which 1t has been for so many years a con-
spicuous type. If there is a newspaper in
the country that puts "all the news that's
fit to print into brighter and better shape
for the perusal of its subscribers than The
Washington Star does, we have yet 10 see
it. The Landmark congratulates Washing
ton upon having such paper as The Even

such a public to appreciate Its worth.
