History

The ''Arcade Herald'' was established in 1891 as the ''Wyoming County Herald'' under publisher George Chase. In 1895, Chase left town suddenly and did not return. The ''Herald'' was sold by the local sheriff in 1897 to Walter F. Arthurs on credit. Chase later reformed and became vice president of the Wyoming County Press Association. In 1899, the Republican members of the board of supervisors of Wyoming County designated the ''Herald'' as newspaper to publish the sessions laws, and in 1916, it was so designated again. In 1927, the name of the newspaper was changed to the ''Arcade Herald''. In 1945, Arthurs sold the newspaper to Paul F. Dorris. In 1969, the name was changed to the ''Tri-County Times''. In 1981, the name was changed back to the ''Arcade Herald''. In 1986, Kathleen L. Mason became the publisher.
