Part of the article says this about Haigler Newspapers:
It is believed that the first Haigler newpaper was the Haigler Reporter, started by Ed Watts in 1886. Other Haigler newspapers included the Haigler Republican, established in 1888 by George Goodwin and his son J. S., and two versions of the Haigler News. The first surfaced in 1892 and continued until the publisher Will J. Snyder, merged it with the Benkelman Bee in January 1895. The second Haigler News effort was launched in 1907 with A. L. Saffer and Harry Jones started a little plant with an Army press. Like so many of the early newspaper enterprises, it, too was sold and an owner named Wilson continued it until 1910.I encourage anyone who does not subscribe to The Benkelman Post & News Chronicle to do so. I certainly enjoy reading it each Thursday when it is in my mailbox when I come home from work.
The same year, C. L. Will and Z. H. Baxter obtained another press and revived The Haigler News. It continued for a number of years with l. M. Samplesis as the editor.
