ter sixteen years Of proprietorship and
sole management of. that paper, R. F..
Jones relinquishes the more arduous
work of publication. The paper has
been incorporated and the new com
pany has secured the services Of Don
c.. Donnan as managing editor. Mr..
Jones, as president Of the company, re-
tains, however, an active interest in
the paper.
With an experience Of twenty years
in newspaper work, both on class pa
p!ers and in the daily field, and repqltEa-
ton as a writer In many lines, Mr..
Donnan' s connection with the pa
per will greatly strengthen it in its
present prominent position as the only
exclusively livestock paper in the
state. Several years ago Mr.. Donnan
made an expose in the Inter Ocean of
the lumpy-jaw traffic at the Union
stockyards which covered nearly two
pages. During his career as trotting
editor of the Inter Ocean he was gen:
orally regarded as the best posted and
most versatile turf writer in the
country. g s .,r
