 The addition or the new perieetng press and the doubling Of the linotype capacity will permit the handling Of twice the amount Of news matter in the day time when news is fresh that has been possible heretofore. and shorten the time between the hour that t is necessary quit setting type and the time O. the appearance of the paper the street which means or course better service to 'ts readers and advertising patrons
 It win take some time and stn more equipment before The Empire will be able to strike It's regular gait and therefore before ts readers will get the fun benefit Of the plans that are being worked out
 Those who make The Emipre would not be fair if they did not take this opportunity to express gratf cation and appreciation to the people Of Juneau. Doug las Island Thane. Perseverance and elsewhere in Alaska for the encouragement which has inspired them 10 meet as best they know how the requirements of this field. and ,he support which has enabled them 10 accomplish as much they have accomplished The newspaper readers Of Gastneau channel have shown by their support that they have. generally speaking approved or the endeayors or the makers ot The Empire and the latter promise that they will to the best of their abilities. strive Go produce as nearly as possible what they conceive to be news paper and Co labor for the up-buildng of Gastineau channel communities and Alaska.
