Essay Draft



The Northwest Worker was published in Everett, Washington during a particularly violent chapter in local history. News coverage of this Socialist weekly focused on the unsuccessful reelection campaign of a Socialist city commissioner James M. Salter, the paper’s financial struggles, and labor turmoil in Everett, leading up to and following the infamous “Everett Massacre” of November 5, 1916.

The paper was formerly known as the Washington Socialist[LCCN:sn88085769]. Faced with relatively low circulation numbers, the paper sought to expand its coverage to the entire Pacific Northwest and the publishers changed the name to reflect their ambition. Under this title the paper was printed from July 1915 until it changed its name again to the Co-operative News [LCCN:sn 88085771] in September 1917. Maynard Shipley served as editor until April 1916; Henry W. Watts took over editorial duties during the same month. Top
