Republican in New Clothes— Hope Readers Will Be Pleased.

The Republican appears today in new dress, that is, anew body type. To complete the change will require several days, but all new matter is cast in the new linotype matrices. Carelessness of express company employes some place along the line resulted in the breaking of the box containing the matrices and a number of them were lost and the new “font” was without any figure “7’s” or lower case “z’s” and was short on other letters. The new face was selected after quite a little consideration and with a view to improving the typographical appearance of The Republican. It it hoped that it meets the approval of our large clientel of subscribers.
