TEXTAmong the newspapers edited and published in Newark The Sunday Call may be specially mentioned as one that stands first in circulation and second to none in every respect of journalistic excellence. This well-known, widely read, and influential Sunday paper was established originally by Frank F. Patterson in May, 1872. In 1873 Messrs. Hunt & Abeel became the proprietors, but they did not continue long, Mr. Patterson repurchasing the establishment from them and subsequently, in September, 1873, disposing of it to Messrs. Ure & Schoch, who have since continued to successfully conduct the paper. The office is centrally located on the second floor of the marble building No. 194 Market Street, is 25x80 feet in size, and is conveniently divided into a business ofiice and editorial rooms. The composing rooms are on the third floor and the press room in a spacious basement, where a four-cylinder Hoe press is used. The Sunday Call is a sixty-four column eight-page weekly journal, printed on a sheet 37x52 inches, and is published every Sunday morning. It has been growing steadily in public favor under its present enterprising management and its circulation is constantly on the increase, so that now it issues over 1 1,000 copies each edition, which is an exceptionally large circulation for a Sunday newspaper so near the metropolis. It circulates largely throughout the city and the neighboring towns and villages, thus making it an excellent advertising medium. Its subscription price is $2.50 per year and single copies are sold at five cents each. Its editorial articles are well and ably written, its local columns show a careful collation of news matter, graphically treated by competent reporters, its tone is dignified yet freely outspoken, and its entire make-up highly creditable and of the first order. The Call is devoted to no political party or clique, but is fearless and independent in the treatment of all public matters. The proprietors and publishers of this excellent journal are Mr. William A. Ure and Mr. James W. Schoch. Mr. Ure is a live, progressive business man, a clever writer, and in every respect qualified by practical experience for his important duties. Mr. Schoch is an Ohio man, who came to Newark nearly a quarter of a century ago, and for a period of nearly twenty-one years was connected with the Newark Daily yournal. He is practical in all departments of the business. The firm is a strong one in ability and qualifications, and a brilliant future is still in store for The Call if the same straightforward, honorable course is pursued and the same energy and perseverance shown.
