aThe Golden Valley Pfosres third
paper and not yesr old. came ont
with 44-page edition. which is with.
out doubt the the largest edition ever
issued by any newspaper in southwest
ern North Dakota and possibly in the
entire state. A surprising announce
ment came along with this number,
namely. that in two weeks the Beach
Daily Progress would make its appear
ance. The publishers say that they will
have full associated press reports and
will issue their daily in the morning,
thus giving the people of the Golden
Valley telegraphic news p hours earlier
than they are now receiving it. This
will give the Beacn Daily Progress q
chance to reach Dickinson subscriber
on No. 8 in the morning. giving then
the same news that appears in the
morning dailies received on No. 3 in
the afternoon. The Progress publishers
have undertaken something that few
newspaper men would dare try, but
here's wishing them success.
