Part of introduction - Newspapers tell two stories. One, of course, is the events of the day as witnessed by the editor and the other is a measure of the activity of the community. Nevada newspapers cover both categories for their establishment records the rise of a mining camp and mark its decline with the editor's departure. It was mining that brought wealth and people in search of it to Nevada. Many of these people had only a transitory interest in a particular mining town for, lacking personal success, they moved on to other ventures. The life span of individual newspapers reflected this momentary interest. True the tenure of papers in county seats was more stable for they found advertising and subscription support from patrons whose residence outlasted a mining boom. Not all of the counties in Nevada could boast continued newspaper publication; Churchill County for decades had no local newspaper nor much of a local government for that matter. The short-lived Roop County was another exception. Nineteenth century papers in Nevada served as the medium to bring news and relief from tedium to the isolated camps. Transportation was limited to stages and the few railroads serving the northern part of the state. These editors had a real sphere in which to operate. Usually they had strong political convictions and the bounds of restraint were unfettered. Also by exchanging verbal brickbats with neighboring editors, they provided entertainment for the town and personal satisfaction for themselves. As one reads newspapers of today in the light of restained personal journalism now prevailing it is a wonder that more editors were not shot or at least given a good pommeling or a summons for a libel suit. Appropriate recourse at the time seemed to be to fight fire with fire, at least the editorial remarks would so indicate. The favorite sport of the late i86o's was to bait Brother Lewis of the Reno Crescent. Reno had been founded just one year before and Lewis moved his press shortly after the official town lot sale. The editor of the Carson Appeal, speaking of the route the Virginia and Truckee Railroad would follow through Carson City, described it this way: "Our pet railroad has taken a new direction. Instead of coming from the foothills west of Carson down Treadway's lane, it is surveyed to run across Miss Clapp's ranch, thence alongside our potato patch, in close proximity to the front door of our dwelling - in the direction of the Mint. If Lewis, of the Crescent, resided where we do, he could see that railroad track without looking beyond his nose - the extent of his vision." Size: 8vo.
