Travelling Public.
Warned to BeIUGTe
OF "WiLdcdt'' Tours

The Montana railroad commission
recently received q complaint IN regard
to four persons travelling via automo-
bile from Seattle TO Detroit. They said
they were left stranded IN MisSoula
by the driver to whom each had paid
$25 transportation charge plus q %
fee paid to the travel bureau that
made arrangements for the trip from
Seattle. Arriving at Missoula frOm
Seattle, the driver had the passengers
remove their luggage from the car Tor
the night because he could not lock
the trunk Of the car and that Was
the last the passengers saw OF the
driver
The drivers and bureaus who operate
this way have been making Salt Lake
City the terminal Of their operations
from the coast towns and the Mon
tana commission win not allow the
travelling public to be taken for a
ride by this kind of an operation In
Montana.
The Montana railroad commission
warns the travelling public to beware
Of paying and travelling with unl-
censed operators This is the first
case Of this kind which has been called
to the attention Of the commission,
which supervises the operation Of all
operators who haul passengers for
hire.
Fieldmen of the commission are in
vestigattng these Illegal operations.

DR.. MeckIenbUrg
Home After Seeing
2 Wars iTa 2 Months

The Rev. DR.. George Mecklenburg
former Great Falls minister who is
now pastor of Wesleyan Methodist
church in Minneapolis, recently ar
rived at his home after being stranded
In France for 20 days with a party
of 20 tourists.
During the party's enforced wait in
France its members were guarded so
closely all were unable to get word to
their families In the United States for
a number of days
Pointing out that the party was in
a firing zone earlier in the summer in
Palestine, Dr. Mecklenburg said the
group saw two wars in two months"
France was like person going on
the operating table," the former Mon
tana pastor said. There was no fam
fare no enthusiasm. All the talk /
heard was about putting stop to
Hitlerism and the constant threat Of
force in Europe"
DR.. Mecklenburg will lecture on his
experiences.

Arriving where the police force estab-
lished Fort Walsh, on the North Fork

fort. Here we met few Americans
from Fort Benton. They took the con-
tract to put up hay for the mounties

joined the American party, consisting
of w. o. Dexter, John Kannady,
Charles Thomas, Charles Bristol,
we're a few more men in this party
whose names I have forgotten. We

1874, which became our home for the

Early Day Editors

EdTly Ody EuACOrS
''The most prominent early day
editors are John Marion of the Ari-
zona Miner John Wasson of the
Arizona Citizen, William j. Berry
of the Arizona Sentinel. Among the
next class would be included Col
onel E. A. Rogers of the Prescott
Courier, j. G. Martin of the Arizona
Journal Miner, N. A. Morford of the
Phoenix Herald, George Tying,
Charley Reppy, John Dunbar, Lewis
G. Hughes. and there are, of course
a lot of others among whom might
be mentioned our own Allan T.
Bird, and the late Major George H
Kelly, and O'Brien Moore.
Firearms
about the most notable event in
dulged in by the newspaper fratern-
ity involving firearms was the ia
nous duel between Colonel Cross of
the Arizonian and Sylvester Mowry.
They fought at forty yards with
Burnside rifles, and fired four
times. At the fourth exchange,
Mowry's rifle failed to go off, and
it was decided that he was entitled
to another shot. He took deliberate
aim while Cross, according to the
story, suffered a hundred deaths.
Mowry then raised his rifle and
fired in the air. OF course they were
friends ever after.
&c. L. Minor, editor of the Ari-
zona Sentinel, was the object of an
attempted assassination during the
early days of the Sentinel. He had
been showing up recalcitrant pub
lie officials, and one Summer eve
ming as his door stood open, pis-
tol sounded and bullet whizzed
by his head. Minor grabbed his own
rifle, but his assaliant had flown.
The first editor of the Arizona
Miner, whose name I do not have
handy, was challenged to a duel,
but he failed to accept.
1T was not matter in which
guns were involved, but you will
probably recall the humiliations

much like trouble that the police
suppressed the paper.
''The first newspaper entitled to
be so classed was the Boston News
Letter, which was begun by John
Campbell, April "a, 1704.
First Daily
"The first daily newspaper in the
United States was the American
Daily Advertiser, published by Ben
jamin Franklin Bache. It was start
ed in 1774, the exact date unknown.
"In 1885 (the latest year for
which there is authentic data) !,
there were 464 morning dailieS, 1873
evening dailies, and 1897 weekly
newspapers in the United States.
These figures are for newspapers
strictly, and do not include other
periodicals. Now we come to Ari-
Zona:
First In Arizona
'"The first newspaper published
within the boundaries of Arizona
was the Weekly Arizonan, which
first saw the light of day at Tubac,
March 3, 1859. 1t was printed on a
Washington hand press which was
brought around the horn from Gin
cinnati to Guaymas, and carted to
Tubac in an OK cart. The publisher
was William Wrightson, and the edi-
tor Colonel Edward E. Cross. The
paper was moved to Tucson in the
latter part of the same year, and
after g. checkered career, died in
a few years.
1.-THE next oldest paper in the ter
ritory was the Arizona Miner at
Fort Whipple, IN Chino Valley,
twenty miles north of Prescott. It's
first publication date was March 9,
1864, and it was printed on a. Ram
mage press.
ARIZONA Citizen
''Next comes the Arizona Citizen,
which began publication October 15,
1870. It's first publisher and editor
was John Wasson. The press or
which the Citizen was first publish
ed was a washington hand press,
which was brought to Arizona by
Vincent Ryan, and used for print
ing his Arizona Gazette, first at La
PaZ and then at Prescott in 1866-67
The Citizen has been continuously
published since October Is, 1870,
and all of that time at Tucson, ex-
cept for very short period during
it's earliest life, when it was moved
to Florence with the object in view
of securing the land office publica-
tions. The Citizen, guess, can lay
claim to being the oldest newspaper
In the state which is still being pub
lished. The Arizona Sentinel is a
close second, at first known as the
Arizona Free Press in 1871, and
then as the Yuma Examiner. 1t be-
gan as the Arizona Sentinel on
March 16, 1872, and is new being
published as the Yuma Sun and the
