THE MARLIN DEMOCRAT

Eighteenth Year - Number 6

Marlin, Texas, Thursday,  April 4,  1907

 

WITH EXCHANGES.

-----

    Col. Geo. A. Hodges has withdrawn from the newspaper business, after 10 years as editor and publisher of the Lott Clarion.  The Clarion, under his managment, was placed on a solid basis and is one of the fixtures of Falls county.  It passes to Geo. A. Hodges, Jr., who was raised up in the office and will keep the Clarion up the standard.

 

    The Easter edition of the Mart Herald, was a very creditable sheet.  It contains fourteen pages with an illustrated lithographed cover, that is very artistic.  The paper is brim full of advs of Mart merchants.  The owner and publisher is J. F. Kennedy, who was a part of the Democratic force for several years.

 

    Editor McCollum of the Waco Tribune, announces that he will start a daily issue in May.  The Tribune is one of the best weekly newspaper properities in Texas and there isn't much doubt that the daily venture will be a success from the start.
