The Wilmington Mobhin8tab has entered upon
the thirteenth year or its existence, ana we uute
this opportunity to congratulate It upon its prospe
rity and deserved popularity. The remarkable suc
cess of the Stab Is due to its strict attention to
business. The boast of the Stab (rightfully too).
is that it always has the news, and this is the first
thing in journalism. Otherwise the paper is all
that the term of "good newspaper" implies, and its
corps of editors and reporters are thoroughly edu
cated newspaper men. May the. healthful, moral
influence of the Stab never be retarded, and may
its genial, enterprising proprietor enloy many more
happy years of usefulness. Ooldsboro Messenger.
