Urlcr Itorlow of tho "Herald's" History
In Blictiniiilonh.
For nearly a quarter of a century tho lln
AID has been directing its energies to tho
vital forces of tho borough of Shenandoah
and with pardonable prldo it can say that it
has been Instrumental of holplng to make tho
largest town in Schuylkill county out of a
mero mining hamlet. Tho first copy of tho
IIkhald was published on May 28th, 1870,
with T. J. Foster, now proprietor Biid editor
of tho Oolliery linginetr at Scranton, and II.
0. Boyer, present editor of tho paper, as its
editors. Few peoplo had the faith In the pros'
pecta of Shenandoah that tho Hbhalu had.
Many, though woll-wishors of tho paper.
thought tho undertaking premature In Its
introductory editorial tho Hbkald Bald,
"Knowing as wo do, that Shenandoah is
looated In ono of tho best Holds of tho coal
region, now being developed, perhaps more
rapidly and oxtcnslvoly than any othor, that
its business prospects aro second to nolocallty
in tho county, and that in spite of tho do
pressing Influences of tho suspension, we sco
Blcnsof improvement all around us, wo aro
entirely confident of success."
This was when Shenandoah had a popular
tlon of about 2,500, nbout tho slzo of tho
Frackvlllo of to-day. The. slow-thinkers
wero horo oven at that oarly day nnd thoy
shook their heads in reply to tho word
painted plcturo of futuro prosperity which
tho paper placed beforo them.
Truo tho paper had a hard struggle to get
upon its feet and tho slow-thinkers and moss
backed settlors frequently rcliovcd tholr
pent up sympathies with "I-told-you-so," but
tho Heualw stuck to Its ray of hopo which.
In January, 1871, was brightened by tho an
nounccmcnt that tho Shenandoah valley was
mining aud Bonding to market tnoro than
ono-slxth of tho cntlro coal product of tho
county. Thoro wero 132 collieries in opora
tlon in tho county at that tlmo nnd but
cloven of them wero in tho Shenandoah
valley. This brightening of prospects mado
tho IIi.nAl.1) jubilant and about that tlmo
tho editors placed under tho head lino of tho
paper this motto, ''To fear God, tell tho truth
and niako monoy."
Tho Heeald dovoted all Its energies to
Impressing upon tho minds of tho peoplo that
tho placo was destined to become large.
substantial and monoy-making and ninny
havo frequently said that had it not been for
tho enthusiastic predictions of tho paper
thoy would havo left tho place in Its infancy
and mado Investments lu other sections of
tho country.
In pursuanco of this policy of encourage
ment, cntcrpriso and building up tho Heb
Atu dovoted days and weeks to the collabor
ation and publication of industrial statistics
showing tho four first collieries in tho county
in point of amount of coal sent to tho market
for the year ending January, 3871, wero tho
Colorado, Plank Kidgo, Shenandoah and Keh-
ley Bun. They shipped an aggregate of .531,
032 tons for that year, moro than one-eighth
of tho entiro product of tho county.
Tho croakers wero beginning to weaken
on their first proclamations. Tho Heeald
was mooting with success and its predictions
about tho town and region were being fully
verified. But croakers will kick and those
drones changed their lino of argument to a
prediction that the town would live but a
short time; that tho mineral deposits would
soon bo oxhaustod by tho rapid development
then in progress as shown by tho statistics.
But tho Heeald took a stand directly to
tho contrary and said editorially in February,
1871, "Wo may safely predict a futuro of bus
ine63 prosperity, wealth and improvement for
our valley and borough such as has never bo.
forobeen equalled ill the history of Schuylkill
county." And In addition to this tho paper
sold, "Our borough is destined to bo ono of tho
most important towns in Schuylkill county,
Wo make this statement with a thorough un
derstanding of what wo write and becauso
our belief lu its truth is founded upon facts
that nothing can gainsay. It is located in tho
richest deposit of authracito coal yet proved
in this country." In conjunction with this
tho Heeald opened a campaign for a general
improvement of the town by urging tho busi
noes men and property owners to petition for
increased railroad facilities with a view to
bringing trade to Shenandoah from Win,
Pcnn (then Grlscom's), Lost Creek, Colorado,
Connors, Mahanoy Piano and other patches,
At tho same time the Heeald urged tho peo-
plo to turn their attention to providing moro
school room. At that time there wero seven
public schools aud seven teachers, with a total
enrollment of 721. To-day wo have 43 schools
and a total enrollment of noarly 3,000.
Throughout its existenco tho Heeald has
tried to do everything which it believed
would be for tho host interests of the town
and its people. When times wero hard and
tho collieries wero idle eight months out of a
year, with business of all kinds practically at
a standstill, which was tho case in 1871, the
paper stood its ground and persisted in
directing tho attention of its roadere to tho
bright side of tho dark cloud. Its policy has
always been to arouse the peoplo to a realiza
tion of the truth that upon their enterprise,
energy and public spirit depended their own
welfare and that of the town. When not
laying bare'the true wealth and possibilities
of tho mluonil il imsiU in and about the
town, it detailed the a lvantagesof additional
highway and rilttj facilities; and in 178 J it
was the first to direct the attention of the
people to tlu ACt that saviugs funds would
bulM-finthe boroueh aud it was not neces-
Tsary for people to wait tor riches before build
ing their own homes.
But the Heeald was also very useful in
another sphere. In tho conspicuous part it
took to wipe from oxtsteuee the infamous
blot that organisation known as the "Mollie
Magulros" placed upon society in tho coal
re-ion of Pennsylvania it established Itself
firmly in the hearts of all law-abiding and
sound-minded citizens. Its enterprise in that
connection was so well appreciated that it
aequlred for the time a circulation exceeding
tliul of any paper published in Pennsylvania1
oa'side of Philadelphia.
During tho past ten years the Herald has
brought to the front many things which the
people would never have undertaken but for
the agitation. Several years ago it urged pub
Ho sewerage. An election was held and the
project was killed, but the Heeald, con
vinced that a system of sewerage was what
the people. wantod and should have, persisted
