NEWSPAPER GUIDE FOR THE GRAND CANYON AND LOWER COLORADO RIVER REGIONS NOTES FOR PART 31 NEWSPAPERS are not generally included in THE GRAND CANON. There are, however, some exceptions, notably The New York Times and the Deseret News (Salt Lake City) (see below). In other instances a newspaper is cited in THE GRAND CANON if an article had been reprinted later in another periodical; the original source is acknowledged in a comment at the end of the citation. Special-interest newspaper-format periodicals are included in the bibliography; for example, High Country News, a mostly biweekly serial. Some weekly newspapers, and weekly magazines included with newspapers, are also cited herein; for example, Computerworld, and Flare from the Arizona Daily Sun (Flagstaff). Part 31 comprises a listing of regional newspapers that some readers may wish to use to begin locating local (or sometimes online) sources. Regarding fuller coverage from selected newspapers, citations from which appear in other parts of this bibliography The New York Times. From The New York Times as many pertinent articles as possible have been cited in so far as they relate to the Grand Canyon and lower Colorado River. This newspaper was published from the beginning of modern excursions into the region, in the mid-19th century. It is as well a well-recognized periodical that is widely available online and through microform products. The Times is relegated to its own section of this bibliography; one section is arranged chronologically (Part 3, Section 1). At the time that this bibliography was started, the only way to access back issues of the Times was through microfilm, which for this title was widely available and thus a prudent addition to this bibliography. Now the Times is wholly accessible online,216 although for recent years not always in facsimile presentation or sometimes omitting appropriate pagination. The online version, though, is completely searchable. The Deseret News. A purposeful comparison has been made in this bibliography to include citations from a western regional analog to The New York Times, this being the Deseret News (Salt Lake City), the oldest continuously published (now daily) newspaper in Utah. Citations from the Deseret News are included as appropriate within the subject-specific sections of the bibliography. The Deseret News’s earliest years (1850–1910) are now freely available online217, and a conscious decision was thus made for THE GRAND CANON to include pertinent citations from these years because, like the Times, they cover the period beginning with 216 http://www.nytimes.com. 217 Utah Digital Newspapers, http://digitalnewspapers.org. 10910 1535 The Grand Canon 2018 PART 31. NEWSPAPER GUIDE FOR THE GRAND CANYON AND LOWER COLORADO RIVER REGIONS modern explorations of the region. Deseret News (originally a weekly, becoming semiweekly in 1865 and daily in 1899—although earlier it was concurrently a weekly and semiweekly as The Deseret News and daily as The Deseret Evening News) is cited herein as Deseret News; most citations are from the weekly edition, the one posted online. Its citations to 1910 include many articles and notes that relate to the geographical coverage area of THE GRAND CANON. They are important to include herein because they have a Mormon perspective of concerted efforts of church and individuals to colonize and economically develop the resources of the region beyond the Utahn border, from Lees Ferry to deep along the lower Colorado River corridor. And as well, the selection of news items reflects Deseret News’s editorial slants on activities in neighbor states and the lower Colorado River corridor. Most telling is the news- paper’s own Prospectus, which intended the periodicals to be documents of record from the start: “A paper that is worth printing, is worth preserving; if worth preserving, it is worth binding; for this purpose we issue in pamphlet form; and if every subscriber shall preserve each copy of the ‘News,’ and bind it at the close of the volume, their children’s children may read the doings of their fathers, which otherwise might have been forgotten; ages to come.”218 Today, the complementary concept of binding is the searchable digitized page; for the next age. Since most of the citations from the Deseret News have been taken from the online postings of this newspaper, take note that the pagination reflects the pages as enumerated in each issue. This is because the online postings do not usually preserve oiginal pagination. In actuality, the newspaper is paginated, at least in its early years, consecutively through entire volumes. To accommodate this lack of online pagination, notations have been inserted into the citations in this bibliography noting “issue pagination”, which begins with page 1 of each issue as denoted in the online postings. Users who refer to an issue will have to count forward from the first page to reach the item in question. 218 Prospectus. Deseret News.

NEWSPAPER GUIDE FOR THE GRAND CANYON AND LOWER COLORADO RIVER REGIONS Introduction Newspapers are a valuable resource to the historian. Long-running papers of any town or city are important historical documents, but researchers who thrill in finding the obscure and unusual anecdote, small-town and out-of-print newspapers are a mine of information. This list of newspapers is not exhaustive, nor is there any guarantee that all of them have had coverage of events or people of the immediate Grand Canyon or lower Colorado River regions. But within these regions it is likely that newspapers published there have had a higher frequency of canyon- and river-related items than the newspapers of more distant places. The earliest newspaper of the greater Grand Canyon region appears to have been the semiweekly Arizona Gazette (Prescott), beginning in 1866, although the Arizona Daily Miner (Prescott) began at about the same time. Several other newspapers started up in the late 1860s, and a majority of papers began in the 1870s-1890s; most, however, were short-lived. In Yuma, the earliest newspaper was apparently the weekly Arizona Free Press, beginning in 1871. Increasingly more early newspapers from across the country are being made available online, although practically most have not been digitized.

TREASURES OE WEALTH. ^f-\^f -^f ^^ ^^ -^^ TO THE READER: It is said of an old writer of romance, that he set the church bells ringing merely because he had found a name for one of his heroes, and we felt equally joyous when we found a title fof our book. It is one that suits it admirably, for it is full of gems of fact and fancy, and points the way to bounteous stores of treasures of health and wealth that are to be had for the seeking. As the ignorant Turk is said to preserve every scrap of writing that comes in his way, because the name of God may be written upon it, so do thou, O Reader, with this book, for there may be hope of life or a life of hope in it for some one who shall see it. We make no apology for our book : it is the best we can give under the circumstances, and is really worth twice as much to the reader as the latest novel. We claim no more originality than does the artist who transfers his perceptions of natural beauty to his canvas, and while we court no criticism, we do not fear it. We only ask of those, who are always ready to decry home talent, that, THEY BUY A COPY TO CRITICISE. We thank the many friends who have kindly given us their advice and assistance in launching this venture, and in their generous approval we shall find our greatest satisfaction.

ARIZONA'S FIRST NEWSPAPER, THE WEEKLY ARIZONIAN, 1859 By MARVIN ALISKY * · HEN newspapers came to Arizona, the land area bearing W that name was merely the western portion of the Terri­ tory of New Mexico. Not until four years after Arizona ac­ quired its own journalism did it achieve governmental status as a territory. But unlike New Mexico, Arizona first acquired a newspaper in the English language, not in the Spanish language. New Mexico's first newspaper, El Crepusculo de la Li­ bertad, begun in Santa Fe in 1835,1 naturally was published in Spanish,2 its potential readers being Mexicans. Arizona's first newspaper, The Weekly Arizonian, began in Tubac in 1859,3 carried not one story in Spanish; Only after eight English-language newspapers had been established during an eighteen-year period, did Arizona in 1877 finally get its first Spanish-language newspaper, Las Dos Republicas at Tucson.4 Just one century ago, relatively few residents, English­ speaking or Spanish-speaking, were to be found in Arizona.

Tubac was the focusing point of much Mexican military history in the days of Anza; the setting of the fabulous story of Planchas de Plata, or slabs of silver; the pioneer camp in the first days of American occupation and the starting point of Arizona's newspaper history. With Mexico on her hack and the Apaches at her heels Arizona roughed it along towards civilization without adequate government aid or even sympathetic interest from any quarter. It is this struggle which the frontier editor embodies and reflects. "Hail Columbia," sang the soldiers, as Captain Stone and his guard passed over the line from Sonora into the "Purchase." Out of his pocket the Captain took a small and beautifully worked Ameri- can flag, which he placed on the pile of stones that marked the line ; the soldiers forming a circle around the monument sent up hearty cheers for the Stars and Stripes; off they galloped at the word of command; again it was "Hail Columbia: il These were gallant gestures. The hardships that were later ex- perienced by the military detachments and by the early settlers when the military appeared to fail them are the subjects of many a chron- icle.

'fhe first printing press in the Southwest was brought to Taos and Santa Fe from Mexico in 1834, and there is extant one of its first impressions, a proclama­ tion of Governor Perez, dated June 26, 1835. Probably from this same press was printcd the first newspaper of New Mexico or Arizona, El Crepusculo (The • Dawll), published by Padre Martinez in 'faos. It had a life of only four weekly numbers, of which the first was printed November 29, 1835. There appears to have been no very lively demand for news in those days. In 1840 in Santa Fe and for three years thereafter was published an official paper, La Verdad (The Truth). It was succeeded in 1845 by 'El Rayo de Nuevo Mejico. The Santa Fe Republican made its first appearance September 4, 1847, with its text .divided between English and Spanish. It was published by Hovey & Davies, with G. R. Gibson as editor. December 1, 1849, Davies and Jones started the New Mexican, but the present publication of that name dates back only to January 22, 1863, when it was founded by Charles Leib. It became a daily as .
