This once-rowdy railroad town completed its metamorphosis into a
real city--with paved streets, lights, and a firm foothold on law
and order--only after decades of struggle and tumultuous, sweeping
social change. In the middle of the fray were three distinctly
different newspapers, which often took opposing sides, acting as
both contestants and self-appointed referees. The Register, with
its dapper editor, William Wheeler, at the helm, was an upright
proponent of Republican principles and agricultural expansion. The
feisty, financially unstable Times was usually a Democratic Party
organ and prone to fighting lost causes. The Daily Post, a brash
newcomer arriving in 1905, challenged the establishment with a
progressive, pro-labor outlook. All eventually combined to become
the independent and still locally owned Post Register.
