Greeley Didn't
Originate Famous
ssGo West Slogan

Horace Greeley, whose 1O4th birth
day anniversary will be remembered
today by the staff Of the New York
Tribune, which he founded. ranks as
one of the most vigorous, powerful
and original of editorial writers in the
history of Journalism. Tt is an irony
of fate that the phrase attributed to
Greeley which is most widely quoted
was not original with him. Go west
young man, go west, is a bit of adj
America, and it Is always accredited
to the immortal editor Of the New
York Tribune. Yet Greeley did not
oni ginate it, and publicly admitted
that the slogan was first voiced by
another
The author of ssGo west, young
man Ia phrase to which the vest
ern half Of the North American CONT
nent owes no small part of its present
prosperlt was John B. L. Soule, a
and brilliant writer, and in the early
sos was the editor of the Terre
Haute, Ind, Express. One day a
prominent citizen of Terre Haute, Col.
r. w. Thompson, suggested to Soule
that he write an editorial advising
with the country. Col Thompson was
an enthusiast on the subject of the
| development Of the western part of
the United States. to which a vast
territory had recently been added by
acquisition from Mexico.
Soule wrote the editorial, which
/ was a glowing word picture of the
possibilities of pioneer work in the
| undeveloped sections, and in the
/ course OF the article asserted that OF
/ even Horace Greeley could give bet
ter advice than that contained in the
words, go west, young man
The editorial was quoted in news
papers all over America, and stGo

slogan. The New York Tribune re
printed the editorial and Mr.. Greeley
declared that Mr.. Soule was right in
saying that he could not give better
Eadvice to a young man than that CON
tanned in the famous expression. The
editor of the Tribune added that he
was not the author of the slogan, but
that it had his heart Endorsement, and
| he Joined with Mr.. Soule in saying
Go west, young man, go west
The Hoosier editor has never re
ceived the credit that. is his due for
originating the $50 west slogan, but
he had the satisfaction of knowing
that he had started a great move
ment of population which is still in
progress. For the young man. die
