Clement R. Sherwood, proprietor and editor of the Republican, was born in Lyons, January 28, 1867, and is a son of Rev. L. H. Sherwood, founder and for many years principal of the Lyons Musical Academy. He is a grandson of Lyman Sherwood, formerly county judge and sur- rogate of Wayne county, and State senator. Hle learned the printer's trade in the Republican office under Mr. Tinsley, was a reporter on the Syracuse Standard in 1885, and during five years thereafter held an editorial position on the Rochester Morning Herald. In 1891 he be- came associated with Mr. Tinsley as above stated. Mr. Sherwood is a foreible and versatile writer, is well informed on all general subjects, and fully capable in all respects of upholding the high character of his journal. 'He was married in 1889 to Mr. Tinsley's third daughter.
The Lyons Courant was founded June 3, 1882, under the name of the Grin and Bear It, by John II. Atkinson, a lawyer, who came to Lyons from Cohoes about 1877. He practiced law about five years before es- tablishing the newspaper, and was an intelligent and educated man. Until October, 1882, the paper was issued from the office of the Newark
139
WAYNE COUNTY.
Union, when Mr. Atkinson found a copartnership with his brother, J. William Atkinson, then day foreman of the New York Tribune compos- ing room, and. a practical printer. They purchased machinery and type, and the paper was then issued from their own office in Lyons, in the building now used as the village police station. The partnership be- tween the Atkinsons lasted but a few months. when it was dissolved, J. William returning to New York, and John continuing the publica- tion of the paper here. In July, 1884, the paper was purchased by Mar- cus J. and Irving J. Van Marter, two brothers, and the name changed to the Lyons Sentinel. Irving J. was a practical newspaper man, hav- ing been connected with the daily newspapers of Peoria, Ill. Marcus J. for several years was employed as a copyist in the Wayne county clerk's office. Irving Van Marter died June 12, 1887, and on Decem- ber 28, 1887, Marcus also died, when the business was taken by Joseph Van Marter, their father. He conducted the business until February 15, 1888, when Frank Stanton purchased it. He carried it on until July, 1888, when it went into the hands of E. P. Boyle and A. Noble. In November of the same year Mr. Noble sold his interest to N. C. Mirick. In May, 1890, the paper was changed to a daily and named the Daily Courant. This was an unsuccessful venture, however, and in April, 1891, it was again changed to a weekly edition under the name of The Lyons Courant, Mr. Boyle retiring. The Courant had always been in- dependent in politics until March 23, 1892, when it was changed to a Republican paper.
In the village of Clyde several newspapers were started, only to die through want of nutrition. 'The first of these was The Clyde Standard, which was established January 6, 1830, by Eber P. Moon. It lived only about six months. The only copy of this paper known to be in exist- ence is No. 1, Vol. 1, in possession of Sylvester H. Clark, of Clyde. In May, 1837, the Lyons American was removed to Clyde, its name changed to the Clyde Gazette, and published by Denison Card until some time in 1838, when it returned to Lyons and became the Lyons Whig.
In 1844 the Clyde Eagle was established by B. Frazee. Within a few years it passed through the hands of a Mr. Dyer, Stephen Salisbury, and in 1847 to Rev. Charles G. Ackly and William Tompkins, who changed its name to the Clyde Telegraph. Within a few years it passed to Rev. W. W. Stroiker, who sold it to William R. Fowle. . After a brief effort to make the business pay he suspended. In February, 1850, the plant was taken by Payn & Smith, and the paper was revived under the name

of the Clyde Industrial Times. Joseph A. Payn soon purchased his partner's interest, and some time in 1851 changed the name of the jour- nal to the Clyde Weekly Times. Payn sold out to James M. Scarritt, who eliminated the word "weekly " from the title of the paper and con- tinued the publication until January 4, 1872. At this time the estab- lishment was purchased by Irwin A. Forte. On January 1, 1876, he took his brother, Irving C., as a partner, but at the end of a year the firm was dissolved, after which date Irwin A. Forte has successfully con- ducted the business until August, 1894, when he sold out to Albert M. Ehart. The Times is an earnest and able Republican organ, and has a large circulation.
Irwin A. Forte, son of Allen H., was born in Cazenovia, N. Y., April 20, 1844. He was educated in Cazenovia Seminary and Morrisville Union School, and for about three years, in partnership with his brother Irving C., and alone, was engaged in the editorship and publication of the Cazenovia Republican. He came to Clyde in 1872 and purchased of James M. Scarritt the Clyde Times. June 20, 1871, Mr. Forte married Ellen C., daughter of Stephen Chaphe, of Cazenovia, by whom he has one daughter, Eileen Muguette.
The Northern Methodist Protestant was started in and published about a year from the office of the Telegraph by the proprietors of the latter newspaper.
In the spring of 1862 William Daley established the Clyde Commer- cial, which had an existence of a few years, and suspended publication.
About 1872 Philip Grimsha began the publication of the Local Preach- er's Advocate, but within a year suspended its publication for want of support.
The Clyde Commercial Advertiser was started by A. V. Forbes in the spring of 1880, but after a year it was discontinued.
Cyrus Conklin came to Clyde from Wolcott about 1885, and estab- lished the Independent and Commercial, which he continued some six months.
July 4, 1885, W. E. Churchill founded the Clyde Democrat, contin- ued the publication until about December 1, 1887, and sold out to Al- bert.C. Lux, who changed the name of the paper to the Democratic Herald. As indicated by its title, the paper is Democratic in politics and commands the approval of a large constituency in that party in Wayne county, by whom it is commended for its aggressive and pro- gressive policy. It began the contest which resulted in making first the

sheriff and later the county clerk, salaried officers, The Herald was a four-page paper when Mr. Lux purchased it, but in September, 1890, he enlarged it to an eight-page, fifty-six column journal.
Albert C. Lux was born October 15, 1864, in Clyde, whither his father came from Alsace, France, in 1852. He graduated from the Clyde High School in 1883 and in 1884 from the Hopkins Grammar School, of New Haven, Conn., preparatory to entering Yale College. At the death of his father, October 25, 1885, he was compelled to return home. He was engaged then in closing up his father's hotel business until he pur- chased the printing plant. In 1889 he served as village trustee and in 1890, as village president, filling the offices with credit.
The enterprising village of Newark also has its list of dead newspa- pers whose brief existence preceded the establishment of a permanent local journal. The first of them was the Newark Republican, which was started in November, 1829, by Jeremiah O. Balch. It lived until some time in 1831. The village was then without a paper until 1838, when Daniel M. Keeler began publishing the Wayne Standard, in sup- port of the old Whig party; in August, 1839, he sold out to Barney T. Partridge, J. P. Bartle, and Stephen Culver, the latter acting as edi- tor. The name of the paper was changed to the New Agis and in Jan- uary, 1840, a transfer to one Norton was made. The paper suspended in the following May. In July of the same year Mr. Keeler again took the editorial chair and the paper was revived under the original title of the Wayne Standard. Hecontinued until 1843, sold to H. L. Wenants, whostopped the publication at the end of the year. In 1850 Henry Fairchild purchased the plant and during one year published the Wayne County Democrat, selling out to B. F. Jones, who changed the title of the paper to the Newark Journal. In 1854 the establishment passed to George D. A. Bridgeman who changed the name of the paper to the Newark Whig and continued it to September, 1856. Charles T. White then bought the office and changed the title of the paper to the Newark Weekly Courier, making it neutral in politics. From him the office passed to Arthur White who in turn sold to B. H. Randolph in 1864. The paper was now made a four-page, thirty-six-column sheet, largely devoted to local news, and was well patronized. In 1869 Jacob Wilson purchased the establishment, changed the politics of the paper to Dem- ocratic a little later and has ever since continued the publication, con- stantly on the alert to add improvements, until now the Courier is an excellent example of the first class country newspaper.

The Newark Union was established in 1872 as a Greeley campaign sheet, but on January 1, 1843, began its career as a permanent publi- cation in support of Democratic principles, with James Jones as editor and proprietor. The paper was successful and after the death of Mr. Jones, the establishment passed to his son, Frank H. Jones, in January, 1883. He continued the business until November, 1885, when it was sold to the present proprietor, H. H. Fisk, the politics of the paper having meanwhile been changed to Republican in 1884. The Union is now a thirty-six column, four-page paper, carefully and ably edited and reaching a large clientage.
On the 6th of April, 1887, the Burgess Brothers (W. C. and F. D. Burgess), who had for about a year been doing a successful job printing business in Newark, began the publication of the Arcadian Weekly Ga- zette, as an independent, modern newspaper. This journal was a suc- cess from the start and at the end of about a year was enlarged from forty columns to forty-eight. In 1891 the Gazette was turned to the support of the Republican party, and in April, 1894, in carrying out their determination to make the paper a leader among the journals of Central and Western New York, the proprietors added twelve more columns. The Gazette is now one of the best and handsomest papers in Wayne county and enjoys a circulation of 1,900. The Burgess Brothers are sons of Rev. A. P. Burgess, who settled in Newark in 1824 as pastor of the Presbyterian church.
The first newspaper published in Savannah was the Savannah News, first issued in 1876, by Frank Conklin, to aid in advancing the precarious fortunes of the Greenback party, and in support of the candidacy of James Deady for member of assembly. It lived only one year and the plant went back to the dealers.
The Savannah News, as it now exists, was founded March 4, 1887, by W. J. Deady, son of James Deady before mentioned. The paper contained four pages of six columns each. In July, 1887, A. J. Conroe bought the business, and in October following admitted George W. Cooper as partner. In March, 1888, Mr. Cooper took entire control and has since conducted the paper. The News was originally independ- ent in politics, but when Mr. Cooper assumed its sole management, he made it as it has since been, aggressively Democratic. It is ably edited and exerts considerable influence.
George W. Cooper was born May 5, 1869, in Theresa, Jefferson county, N. Y., and is a son of Captain Jerome Cooper. He was edu-

cated at Theresa and served a printer's apprenticeship in the office of the Watertown Post. He located in Savannah in 1888, and was chosen town clerk in 1891, the first Democratie clerk in the town. From 1890 to 1894 inclusive he has held the office of village clerk.
The Savannah Times was started April 7, 1894, by A. J. Conroe, who has been a merchant of the village twenty-four years, and conducts the printing business in connection. The Times is independent, with a leaning towards Republicanism. Mr. Conroe is a native of Dutchess county, where he was born in 1845. He removed with his mother to Savannah in 1848.
Besides these two papers Savannah had the Savannah Reporter, started as a Republican organ in December, 1889, by O. C. Silver, which endured one year; and the Savannah edition of the Wayne County Dispatch, one year from April, 1893, printed in Palmyra by F. G. Crandall.
The town of Sodus has had a newspaper since 1873, when George W. Tummonds started the Sodus Enterprise. Shortly afterwards the firm of Tummonds & Collins was formed, and about 1875 Galen Oderdirk became proprietor of the paper and changed its name to The Wayne County Alliance, at the same time effecting a consolidation with the Ontario Sun (which had been issued for a time in the town of Ontario), and the Williamson Enterprise of Williamson. In 1878 the establish- ment passed to the firm of Claven & Gilmore; the latter soon afterwards died, and the office again changed hands, going to E. W. Gurnee & Co., who employed E. A. Benedict as editor. On September 1, 1882, they sold out to B. H. Cuddeback and Willis C. Teall. This firm continued to September, 1890, when Mr. Teall became sole proprietor and has since continued the business. In 1878 the paper was enlarged from a four-column folio to its present seven-column size. The Alliance has always been independent in politics.
Willis C. Teall was born in Romulus, Seneca county, in 1852, was educated in Geneva and Sodus Academy, his parents having removed to this town in 1853. He began learning the printer's trade with Galen Oderdirk, and purchased an interest in the Alliance in 1882, as above stated.
The Williamson Sentinel was started as the Williamson Banner in 1884, by G. W. Tummonds, by whom the plant was removed from Ontario. In April, 1886, he sold out to the present proprietor, Dr. II. N. Burr. The name of the paper was changed in 1885. Dr. Burr

The Shut-In Visitor was started in Williamson in January, 1883, by Mrs. Kate Sumner Burr, wife of Dr. H. N. Burr. In January, 1885, the name was changed to The Invalid's Visitor. In May, 1886, Dr. and Mrs. Burr removed to Williamson, taking the journal with them. It is an octavo of sixteen pages, monthly, and devoted to the interests of invalids. It has a very extended circulation.
The Macedon News was first issued in the village of Macedon in the fall of 1885, by M. Allen Eddy, who has successfully conducted it since. He was then only fourteen years old and attending school. The size of the paper was then six by nine inches. It has been three times en- larged, and now is an eight-page, seven-column journal. When the last enlargement was made the name was changed to The Newsgatherer. Since October, 1890, W. S. Eddy has been business manager for his brother, the publisher, M. Allen Eddy, who is on the city staff of the Chicago Herald. M. Allen Eddy was born in Macedon, December 14, 1870, and graduated from the Macedon Academy in the class of '86. Ile served as reporter two years on the Oswego Palladium. William S. Eddy was born in Macedon, February 13, 1868, and educated in Macedon Academy. They are sons of Marvin A. Eddy, who settled in Macedon from Williamson, where his father, Joseph, was a pioneer.
The Marion Enterprise was founded by E. Curtis in 1880, and by his ability as an editor and his practical business qualifications, has made it a success. Mr. Curtis was born in Madison, Madison county, N. Y., July 17, 1825, and is the youngest living of eight children of Eli and Hulda Curtis. He was educated in the common schools and Augusta Academy, and at the age of seventeen began teaching, which occupation he followed thirty years; was four years a teacher in Marion Collegiate Institute, of which his son-in-law, Charles E. Allen, was principal at the same time, while the wife of the latter was preceptress, and a daughter of our subject, Evangeline, was assistant. . The family thus conducted the institution four years. On September 24, 1880, Mr. Curtis estab- lished the Enterprise, as above stated. In the conduct of this journal he is assisted by his son, Rollo D. Mr. Curtis was associated with C. A. White in the purchase of the Gorham Intelligence in 1828; he bought out his partner in 1879, and continued there until he founded the Enter- prise. Through the publie spirit of Mr. Curtis a telephone office was established in Marion. He married in 1845, Laura A. Dudley, of

The Ontario Sun was established in Ontario village in 1873, by Galen Oderdirk, who soon afterwards took his uncle, Rev. G. M. Hardie, as partner. They sold out to William H Spencer, who changed the name of the paper to The Lake Shore Independent. The journal was dis- continued within a few years.
The first newspaper in the town and village of Rose was an amateur journal, called the Rose Times, published by Burt E., son of Jackson Valentine, in the fall of 1886. He continued it about fourteen months.
Another amateur sheet, called the Rose Union, was started a week after the beginning of the Times, by Elmo R. Barless, son of Dr. R. C. Barless. In June, 1887; the establishment was purchased by Clinton J. Barless, and changed the name of the paper to The Farmers' Counsel, also changing its character to correspond. In the fall of 1887 it was made a local journal. In January, 1888, the Rose Times and the Farmers' Counsel were consolidated by Barless & Valentine, and has since been continued as such. In March, 1888, Valentine sold his part of the material to G. A. Sherman, job printer, and C. J. & C. L. Barless formed a partnership, which continued till the summer of that year, when C. L. Barless retired. The partner continued alone to 1891, when the firm of C. L. & E. R. Barless was formed, and continued to 1893. Since then C. L. Barless has carried on the business. The paper is a nine-column folio, neutral in politics.
In the spring of 1887 W. J. Deady started in Rose Valley the Jeffer- sonian Democrat, which lived about six months. In 1893 a monthly pa- per called Our Home was founded and printed in the office of C. J. Barless, who still continues it. It is a household paper.

Charles D. Smith started the Wolcott Standard in 1874, and it also soon fol- lowed its predecessors. The Wolcott Independent, a weekly Greenback organ, started in 1881 by Cyrus Conkling, was soon removed to Clyde where it became the Clyde Citizen and Independent.

THE first lodge of Free and Accepted Masons in what is now Wayne county, was organized in 1811, as Pultneyville Lodge No. 159. It con- tinted work with a fair degree of prosperity until the Morgan anti-Ma- sonic warfare swept over this State, when it succumbed. It was reor- ganized after 1850 under the same name, with Philander B. Royce, master. Its meetings were continued there until 1872, when the lodge and its property were removed to Williamson village, where it has since

bership embraces many names of early citizens and others down to recent years, who were prominent in the community in many ways. Prelim- inary to the ceremony of installation in the old lodge a meeting of those interested met in a building owned by Moses Hurlbert on the 14th of August, 1812. Here a procession was formed which marched to the Methodist meeting-house where a discourse was delivered by Brother Farley, following which Humanity Lodge was duly installed with its officers, by Philetus Swift, D.
