History

The Dawson Sentinel published its first issue on December 5, 1884, under the name the Dawson Eagle.[4] In 1886, the Dawson Eagle changed its name to The Sentinel.[5] The name of the newspaper was finally changed to the Dawson Sentinel in 1898.[6]

The first editor of the Dawson Sentinel was C. J. Coghlan.[7] Theodore Christianson, former Governor of Minnesota was the owner, editor, and publisher of the Dawson Sentinel from 1909 to 1925.[8] [9] During this time, Christianson wrote and published anti-German and anti-Bolshevik editorials.[10] The newspaper was co-owned by William Nicholas Kremer until his death in 2020.[11]

The Dawson Sentinel is available on microfilm at the Gale Family Library at the Minnesota History Center.
