THE ORION TIMES

A splendid four-page, seven-column paper is the Orion Times, fresh and newsy, and seems to be fairly well patronized by the home merchants as an advertising medium. The paper is now (October, 1885) in the eighth volume, and is exactly eight and one-half years old. William A. Bolles the editor and proprietor, is an enterprising newspaperman, and his efforts should be fully appreciated.

The Orion Vidette first came to Orion in 1875, under the care of Dr. Chaffee. In a short time Ludi & Bolles bought the office, and changed the name to its present title. In 1883 N. J. Ludi retired from the concern, and Mr. Bolles became sole owner and proprietor. The paper is devoted to the local affairs of the county and the best interests of Orion, and receives, as it merits, a fair and liberal support from the people.
