Live Wire Newspaper.
While an exponent of the forward
movement and a worker for the Greater
Frederick. the News. the live daily and
semi-weekly paper published by the Great
Southern Printing and Manufacturing
Company, has had an interesting past,
associated with the history Of the COM
munity for more than a quarter or n
century. The paper was started back In
those days when a newspaper for a small
town was a risky venture. and especially
so for Frederick. since gossip at that
time was as thorough a medium for the
transmission of news as could be desired.
The late ". T. Delaplaine was deter
mined to establish a newspaper for Fred
erick and, In 1883, under the hrm name
OF Schley & Delaplsine, the News was
started. The struggle at the start was
a hard one, but the paper plodded along
gaining favor and patronage as time
went on.
Among the editors who served on the
News for a number Of years was the
'Bentztown Bard" Mr.. FolSer Mckin-
sey. Of the Baltimore Sun.
Having improved the equipment and
service year after year, the News is now
recognized as one Of the most progress
sive sheets for q town Of the size OF
Frederick in any part Of the country. and
is managed and run by the sons OF the
founder. Messrs. Robert f. and W. T.
Delaplaine, who took control severai
years ago, since which time rapid strides
have been made in the business OF the
establishment and wonderful improve
ments upon the paper.
The paper is independent in politics
and has devoted its energies TO the en-
couragement OF the growth and progress
Of the city and county. With circula-
ton thoroughly covering Frederick Coun-
ty and those adjoining, the News enjoys
