Pepper Building at the north-east 1corner of West Wbltner and North' Peeples streets, ls moving Its news* paper and job printing business from the Watson-Vandlver building, pit i North Main Street to the new loca tion. The newspaper department of ! he business waa moved yesterday and be transfer of the job printing de ar tmcnt will be completed this week. While not originally constructed for 3newspaper purposes, the Pepper ! Building, perhaps more than any i other structure- in the city, comes! Dearer, being the type of homo best] ul ted for auch a business than could ' ?be ?found almost anywhere. Certain 1 ?alterations of a minor nature have] nput the building in convenient shape ?for a newspaper home, and from these ?quarters it is boped to issue even a j ?better paper than subscribers ot The "intelligencer have enjoyed; in the past; The Pepper Building is one of the] ?best constructed business 'buildings' lin the city. In .the commodious j ?cement-floored basement of the struc ture will be situated the press on Iwhich The Intelligencer ls printed. ?On the first or ground floor of the ?structure will be located the editorial j brooms,-the business - office and the] ?mechanical department ot the paper, ho job printing business will bc established on the top floor of the ulldlng. where also will be located tho editorial rooms of the Southern rlatlan Advocate.
