THE OLDEST NEWSPAPERS


That newspapers compare favorably
with other enterprises in stability j. in.
dleated BY the fact that there are now 10S
weeklies and "a dailies in the United
States which have been published for more
than 100 years.
The oldest of all is the Maryland
Gazette at Annapolis. established in 1927.
and the only American paper to have
passed its 200th birthday. Next in age is
the New Hampshire Gazette at Ports
mouth, also weekly. established in 1866.
The oldest daily is the Hartford Courant,
published since 1854.
Naturally enough, most OF the papers
which are more than century old are in
the East. but three are published west of
the Mississippi river. These are the Ar
kansas Gazette at Little Rock, q daily dat
ing from 1919; the weekly Herald-States-
man at Columbia, No., 1921; and the daily
Hawkeye at Burlington. Ia, 1880.
New York state leads in the number
Of century-old newspapers. with Is dailies
and &c weeklies. although only one of
these, the Evening Post, is published in
New York City. Pennsylvania stands
second and Ohio third on the list.
