VOLUME XIV.

With this issue The Star enters
upon its fourteenth year. The
publishing firm also changes, A..
G. Swarner retiring and Charles
Bear assuming entire control. The
policy Of the paper will remain the
same as il has been in the past. II
will continue to advocate those
things which its editor believes are
for the best interests and advance
ment Of Dolores and the surround.
ing country. We believe that
Dolores is the best town in South.
western Colorado. but we are not
going to try to advance its interests
by running down" other towns.
No town, regardless of what its
natural advantages may be, ever
advances beyond the enterprise and
public spirit OF its citizens and,
while the citizens of Dolores may
be slow in demanding public i'm.
provements. we do not believe that
they lack enterprise and the presen,
year will see great things begun
for our town. More settlers will
come to Montezuna county this
year than have come in the pas,
Eve years and. while the fertile
farm land surrounding Dolores and
in the valley is the chief attraction
some will want to locate in town
These people come from place,
where modern improvements arr
enjoyed and Dolores is not going t.
stand idly by and see them locat,
in other places. II will be III,
pleasure Of this paper to keep thu
outside public informed as to tn,
advantages and disadvantages o
sucaliuK ueIc. We siIaii s,IisS .,
keep our readers informed on al
public questions that should interes
