History: The chronology of the FAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS-MINER title series, based on review ofexisting issues, is as follows: Began on Sep 19, 1903 as the WEEKLY FAIRBANKS NEWS (1903-1904?), though often cited as the FAIRBANKS NEWS. In 1905? it became the FAIRBANKS SEMI-WEEKLY NEWS, followed by the FAIRBANKS WEEKLY NEWS (1905?-1908?). Another series ofeditions published “for the creeks” between 1906 and 1907 (the TANANA DAILY MINER, theTANANA SEMI-WEEKLY MINER, and the TANANA WEEKLY MINER) appeared concurrently.Also beginning in 1905, a concurrent daily edition called the FAIRBANKS EVENING NEWS (1905-1907) was published. Its variant title was the FAIRBANKS EVENING ALASKAN for a short time in1907. It then became the FAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS (1907-1909). On Mar 22, 1909, the title becamethe FAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS-MINER. While the incorporation of the word “miner” into the titleimplies an absorption of the TANANA MINER that was being published out of Chena, the TANANAMINER continued to be published in Chena through Jul 26, 1909, several months after the debut of theFAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS-MINER. W.F. Thompson, formerly associated with the TANANADAILY MINER, TANANA SEMI-WEEKLY MINER and the TANANA WEEKLY MINER ofFairbanks (1906-1907), and the TANANA MINER at Chena and later Ridgetop Crossroads prior to

Fairbanks

selling his interest in the paper, did, however, choose to add “miner” to the title of his new paper.

In 1910, it absorbed the TANANA TRIBUNE, to become the FAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS-MINER ANDTANANA TRIBUNE (1910-1912), before reverting to the title FAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS-MINER.In the summer of 1912, the title became, once again, the FAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS-MINER.Between 1920-1922, after fire destroyed the ALASKA CITIZEN plant, the masthead titles of both thedaily and weekly editions became the FAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS-MINER AND DAILY ALASKACITIZEN and the FAIRBANKS WEEKLY NEWS-MINER AND WEEKLY ALASKA CITIZEN. OnMar 28, 1922, it began publishing again as the FAIRBANKS DAILY NEWS-MINER, the current title.Additional weekly and tri-weekly editions appeared in the following years (mid-1920s). In Nov of 1981,a concurrent weekly mail edition called the NORTHLAND NEWS was established for distribution torural areas.

Microfilm holdings: 1909-presentExtent of holdings: IncompleteDetailed holdings: The first listing of holdings are based on inventory of microfilm held at UAF whichwere produced by an out-of-state commercial microfilm producer. The second listing of holdings at ASLshows only the range of years and not specific holdings except for the years 1909-1912. While it was notpossible to inventory this title, it appears from spot checking that much of ASL’s microfilm of this title, upuntil 1963, was produced from different issues and producers.Each library that has holdings of this title may have reels with unique or more readable issues.Microfilm at other locations, including those identified in the OCLC and WLN databases also may havebeen produced from different issues and producers and should also be consulted in case they include issuesmissing from another set.

Editor: John W. FrameHistory: Probably began in Sep or Oct of 1904 and was published through Apr 4, 1908. It became the

ALASKA WEEKLY TRANSCRIPT with the Apr 18, 1908 issue, later becoming a daily called theJUNEAU DAILY TRANSCRIPT (May 6-Sep 9, 1909). The Jan 14 and Jan 21 issues of 1905 show theyear as 1904 incorrectly under the masthead. The ALASKA SENTINEL of Sep 21, 1905 states that“...the Alaska Transcript was one year old…”. The Sep 6, 1905 issue of the DOUGLAS ISLANDNEWS also states that the “...Transcript is a year old”. According to an entry in James Wickersham’s“A Bibliography of Alaskan Literature 1724-1924”, (1927), p. 254, the Alaska Transcript began on Oct17, 1904.
