The Stewart New*
New Journalistic
Enterprise Starts
The Stewart News, sprightly
five column, four page weekly
news journal, made its appear
ance -in Stewart, B. C. Monday
evening and, as a result, the
Portland Canal mining district
can boast three weekly news
journals; the -others being the
Hyder (Alaska) Herald and
The Northern Argonaut, of
Srewart.
Although published under the
same management and employ
ing the same title, the new
Stewart News is not a resump
tion of the former publication
of that name, which became
defunct following destruction
of its planit by fire December
6, 1932. The older journal
was published by the Stewart
Publishing Company, a corpor
ation; the present News by H.
W. M. Ralston and associates.
Mr. Rolston is edittor and man
ager. The journal will be is
sued on Friday and, judging
by the initial number, will be
a credit to the district and its
management.
In welcoming the new-comer
to the local journalistic field
the Herald feels that it should
and will be a potent factor in
the future development Of the
district and the advancement
of the communal prosperity.
It mean, tb the Portland Can
al district as a whole another
valuable publicity influence in
making known to the world the
vast inherent resources of one
of the continents greatest min
eral regions.
