For nearly a quartor of a century tho linn
ALUhasboen directing its energies to the
vital forces of tho borough of Shenandoah
and with rxvrdonablo prldo it can say that it
las been Instrumental of helping to make tho
largest town In Schuylkill county out of a
moro mining hamlet. Tho first copy of tho
llKRALl) was published on May 28th, 1870,
with T. J. Foster, now proprietor and editor
of the Colliery llnginetr at Scranton, and II
C. Boycr, present editor of tho paper, as its
editors. Few peoplo had tho faith In the pros-
poets of Shenandoah that tho Hkrald had
Many, though well-wishers of tlio paper,
thought tho undertaking premature. In Its
introductory editorial the Heualw said,
"Knowing as wo do, that Shenandoah is
located In ono of tho best Molds of the coal
region, now being dovcloped, perhaps moro
rapidly and extensively than any other, that
Ita business prospect aro second to nolooality
in tho county, and that in splto of tho do
pressing Influences of tho suspension, wo sco
signs of improvement all around us, wo aro
entirely confident of bucccss."
This was when Shenandoah had a popul
tlon of about 2,500, about tho size of tho
Frackvillo of to-day. Tho, slow-thinkers
wero horo oven at that early day and they
shook their bends in reply to tho word
painted plcturo of future prosperity which
tho paper placed lieforo them,
Truo tho paper had a hard struggle to get
upon its feet and tho slow-thinkers and moss
backed settlors frequently rcllovcd their
jpont up sympathies with "I-told-you-so," but
tho Hekalp stuck to Its ray of hopo which,
In January, 1871, was brightened by tho an
nouncomont that tho Shenandoah valloy was
milling and sending to market moro than
ono-slxth of tho entire coal product of tho
county. Thoro wero 132 collieries in opera
tion In tho county at that tlmo and but
eleven of them wero in tho Shenandoah
valloy. This brightening of prospects made
tho llKltAM) jubilant and about that tlmo
tho editors placed under tho head lino of tho
paper this motto, "To foar God, tell tho truth
and mako monoy."
Tho Hebald devoted all Its energies to
Impressing upon tlio minds of tho peoplo that
tho placo was destined to bocorao large.
substantial and monoy-making and ninny
havo frequently said that had it not been for
tho enthusiastic predictions of tho paper
they would havo left tho place in its infancy
and made Investments in other sections of
tho country.
In pursuancoof this policy of encourage
ment, cnterpriso and building up tho Her
ald dovoted days and weeks to tho collabor
ation and publication of industrial statistics
showing tlio four first collieries in tlio county
iu point of amount of coal sent to tho market
for tho year ending January, 181, wero the
Colorado, Plank Bidgo, Shenandoah and Kch-
ley Bun. They shipped an aggrcgato of 381,
032 tons for that year, more than ono-clghth
of tho entire product of tho county.
Tho croakers were beginning to weaken
on their first proclamations. Tho Herald
was meeting with success and its predictions
about tho town and region wore being fully
verified. But croakers will kick and thoso
drones changed their lino of argument to a
, prediction that tho town would livo but a
short time; that tho mineral deposits -would
soon bo exhausted by tho rapid development
then in progress as shown by tho statistics,
But tho Herald took a stand directly to
the contrary and said editorially in February,
1871, "Wo may safely predict a futuro of bus
iness prosperity, wealth and improvement for
our valley and borough such as has novor bo-
fore been equalled in tho history of Schuylkill
county." And in nddition to this tho paper
said, "Our borough is dostined to bo ono of tho
most important towns in Schuylkill county.
Wo mako this statement with a thorough un
derstanding of what we writo and becauso
our belief in its truth is founded upon facts
that nothing can gainsay. It is located in tho
richest deposit of anthracito coal yet proved
in this country." In conjunction with this
tho Herald opened a campaign for a general
improvement of tho town by urging tho bus!
noss men and property owners to petition for
increased railroad facilities with a view to
bringing trade to Shenandoah from Win
Pcnn (then Oriscom's), Lost Creek, Colorado,
Connors, Mahanoy Piano and other patches,
At tho samo tlmo tho Herald urged tho peo
plo to turn their attention to providing moro
school room. At that time there wero seven
public schools and seven teachers, with a total
enrollment of 721. To-day wo have 43 schools
and a total enrollment of nearly 3,000.
Throughout its existenco tho Herald has
tried to do everything which it believed
would be for the best interests of the town
and its people. When times wero hard and
the collieries wero idlo eight mouths out of a
year, with business of all kinds practically at
a standstill, which was tho caso in 1871, tho
paper stood its ground and persisted in
directing tho attention of its readers to the
bright sidoof tho dark cloud. Its policy has
always been to arouse the pooplo to a realiza
Hon of the truth that upon their enterprise,
energy rini public spirit depeuded their own
welfare and that of the town. When not
laying hare'the truo wealth and possibilities
of the mineral ib posits in and about tli
town, it detailed the a lvantagesof additional
highway and railway facilities; and in 178J it
was the first to direct the attention of tho
people to the ftc't that savings funds would
build un the borouch and it was not neces
sary for people to wait lor riches before build
I n it their own homes.
But the Herald was also vory useful in
another sphere. In the oonspiouous part It
took to wipe from existence tho infamous
blot that organization known as the "Mollie
Maguires" placed upon society in tho ooal
ration 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 tha't it
aomilrod for the time a circulation exceeding
timt of any paper published in Pennsylvania'
oa'iide of Philadelphia.
During the past ten years the Herald has
brought to the front many things which tho
people would never have undertaken but for
the agitation. Several years ago It urged pub
lie sewerage. An election was held and the
project was killed, but the Herald, con
vinced that a system of sewerage was what
iHe people wanted and should have, persisted
in its aeitatiou SCd to-day property owners
in all sections of the town al? applying to the
Borough Council for permission to?!! ln

AHEAD AGAIN!
We havo mounted another rung ontheladder
of popularity. It Is tho' Standard Grand this tlmo,
a drop-head, halt-cabinet at a reasonable price.
The head rises automatically to Its place when the
leaf Is laid back. With a lcgle movement tho
head disappears, the cabinet closes, and you have
an elegant ornamental piece of furniture. Drop ln
and look at It, And while we aro talking of cabinet
work wo might mention tho different kirn's ot wood
the Standard is made up ln Antique Oak, XVI
Century Oak, Walnut, Hungarian Oak, Mahogany
and Sycamore.
