Essay Draft

In October 1917 the Socialist weekly The Northwest worker [LCCN:sn88085770] changed its name to the Co-operative News. This title lasted until at least June 1918. That last edition and the editions preceding it are filled with predictions of newspaper’s impending doom based on the federal government’s on-going suppression of other Socialist and radical publications taking place throughout the nation under the authority of the federal Espionage Act of 1917, as amended in April 1918.

The Co-operative news continued to publish news and propaganda of the local, state, and national Socialist party. The name change reflects a shift in interest towards the cooperative movement. During its brief period of publication the Co-operative news was edited by Henry W. Watts, followed by Peter Husby. Husby was an attorney who had previously contributed the "Free Legal Advice" column to the paper. Top
