Appeal Tribune
The ''Silverton Appeal Tribune'' was a weekly newspaper published in Silverton in the U.S. state of Oregon. It was published by the ''Statesman Journal''; both papers, along with the nearby ''Stayton Mail'', are owned by the national Gannett Company. History The first newspaper in Silverton, the ''Appeal'' was founded as a weekly newspaper in 1880 by Henry G. Guild. Author Homer Davenport, who was raised in Silverton, had strong ties to the ''Appeal'' in his youth; he discussed its early days in his autobiographical work ''The Country Boy'' (1910), and described Guild as the "best editor the Silverton ''Appeal'' ever had." The paper changed hands a number of times in its first few decades. In 1903, the paper acquired the ''Silvertonian'' and merged the two. The ''Tribune'' was founded in nearby Mount Angel in 1913, later moved to Silverton, and was ultimately acquired by ''Appeal'' owner John T. Hoblitt, who consolidated the papers in 1931. In 1976 the Mount Angel ''News'' wa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Silverton is a city in Marion County, Oregon, United States. The city is situated along the 45th parallel about northeast of Salem, in the eastern margins of the broad alluvial plain of the Willamette Valley. The city is named after Silver Creek, which flows through the town from Silver Falls into the Pudding River, and thence into the Willamette River.
