Publishers Healey & Clark Now Entire Owners of The Republican.

George H. Healey and Leslie Clark, who have been publishers of the Republican since the consolidation of the Republican and Journal two years ago, have purchased the interests of the former partners, Dr. I. M. Washburn and Mrs. Kate R. Watson, each buying enough of the stock to give them a half holding in the property. The reason for the sale by Dr. Washbum was his intended removal shortly to Longmont, Colo., 'where he will engage in the practice of medicine and become a partner in the management and one of the surgeons In the Longmont hospital. The interests of Mrs. Watson was represented by Dr. Washburn and was also disposed of because of his intended removal. The investment has been a paying one for the retiring partners, whose interests would not have.been parted with except for the plans of Dr. Washburn to remove from the state. During the two years and almost four months that Dr. Washburn has been a partner in the publication of the Republican he has never interfered with either the business nor editorial policy of the paper, delegating entire authority to the active proprietors and placing no restrictions in the way of their full exercise in control. The partnership, has, therefore, been very agreeable, and the retiring partners aro satisfied in every way with the investment from which they now withdraw.
