The Telegram was founded April
16, 1977.
Under its present ownership it
has nearly doubled its circulation.
It is owned and published by two
Portland men, J. E. Wheeler and
L. R. Wheeler.
Although these men are Repub
licans they believe in keeping the
news columns of the Telegram
free and untrammeled for all
shades of political belief.
They are both active members of
a Protestant church.
The Telegram has interested it
self primarily in the upbuilding
of the Northwest.
Editorially the Telegram is fear
less and constructive, and has to
a peculiar degree gained the con
fidence of the whole community.
From a news standpoint the
paper is unexcelled in its service
to the reader.
“How I Cleared the Mill of
Rats,” by J. Tucker, R. I.
“As night watchman believe I
have seen more rats than any
man. Dogs wouldn’t dare go
near them. Got a $1.25 package
of RAT-SNAP, inside of 6 weeks
cleared them all out. Killed them
by the score every night. Guess
the rest were scared away. I ’ll
never be without RAT-SNAP.”
