Buys the Daily Record and Takes

COMPANY WILL BE DISSOLVED
J. W. Jarnagin the Retiring Editor
An Excellent News
paper Field.

L. T.. bldu he, WHO purchased du
interest in the Freeman Tribune
nearly year and half ago, has
disposed of his holdings in this pa
per and purchased the Cedar Falls
Daily Record, taking possession the
first of next month.
The Record has b en- on the mar
ket some time and several delega-
tions of Cedar Falls business mer
have been here the past few months
to interest Mr.. Bladine in the prop
erty and he finally decided to buy
it. Cedar Falls is town of about
the size of Webster City and it is
a good town in every respect, es-
pecially from the newspaper stand
point. The Record is the only pa
per there and the business men of
the town are opposed to having
more. The advertisers realize that
one good daily paper in town of
that size can and will serve them
better than two or more Of inferior
quality, and it goes without saying
that it is impossible;b from busi-
ness standpoint, to conduct more
than one good daily paper in town
of less than six thousand people,
The Cedar Fails commercial! league
became interested in the matter and
assurances We're made that no en-
ccuragement would be given sec
ond paper. This being the situa-
tion, Mr.. Bladine thought he could
do better for himself in Cedar Falls
than he could in Webster City,
hence the change.
Mr.. Bladine came to Webster City
about the middle of May, 1910, and
has made his home here since. H..
and his estimable wife have made
many warm friends during their
comparatively short residence in
this community and it will be with
genuine regret that our people viii!
learn of their decision to go else
where to make their future home.
Mr.. Bladine is hustling and reliable
young business man and the people
of Cedar Falls will find him worthy
of any confidence they may repose
in him. The Freeman-Tribune re
grets very much that business rea-
sons have led to his decision to
leave Webster City, but joins with
the friends of the family in wishing
them all kinds of prosperity in their
new home.
Mr. Bladine is an all-round news
paper man and is one Of the best
printers in the state. That he will
give Cedar Falls good paper goes
without saying and that he will
make financial success of the busi-
ness there can be no doubt.
1t is with regret that Mr.. and
Mrs. Bladine leave Webster City.
Like nearly every one who ever re-
sided here, they like the town and
the people and have confidence in the
future of the place as a business
center and a most desirable com
munity in which to live.
The Record has been conducted
by stock company for some time.
with ]. w. Jarnagin editor. Mr..
Jarnagin is now postmaster and de-
sires to retire from the newspaper
business. Mr.. Bladine acquires the
entire property and the business of
the corporation will be settled up
and the organization dissolved.
