John Travis Nixon

John Travis Nixon (July 6, 1867 – February 8, 1909) was a journalist and publisher in several American cities, particularly Monroe and Crowley, Louisiana, where he founded what later became the existing ''Monroe News-Star'' and ''The Crowley Post Signal''.
==Nixon's biography==

Nixon was born in Colchester in McDonough County in western Illinois, the son of Joseph Nixon, originally from Newcastle upon Tyne in England and the former Susannah Mellor. He was reared in Osage County and Wellington in Sumner County, both in Kansas, where he had engaged in farming and became a printer's assistant, respectively. He moved to the American South in 1885; his parents relocated to Grand Bay near Mobile, Alabama. Nixon worked on newspapers in Mobile and New Orleans, Alexandria (now ''The Alexandria Town Talk''), Patterson in St. Mary Parish and Washington in St. Landry Parish. In 1893, with partner Julius Cheney, he launched the ''Monroe Evening News'', a forerunner of the ''Monroe News-Star'' in Monroe in Ouachita Parish in northeastern Louisiana.〔
In 1898, Nixon moved to Crowley, where he became the editor of ''The Rice Journal'' and ''The Southern Farmer''. His Rice Belt Printing Company produced the weekly ''Rice Belt News'' and ''The Crowley Daily News'', which was later turned into the ''Crowley Daily Signal''. From 1906 to 1909, he was part owner and manager of the Signal Printing Company. He was national editor and later president of the National Amateur Press Association,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''A Dictionary of Louisiana Biography'', "Nixon, John Travis" )〕 an organization founded in 1876 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Nixon served on the Acadia Parish School Board. In 1899, he opened a library in his Crowley home which served as a public reading room. He was affiliated with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows lodge. Nixon died in Mobile, Alabama; public schools in Crowley closed for his funeral, and no newspaper was published. The IOOF in Carson in Beauregard Parish is named in his honor. He is interred at Crowley Cemetery.〔〔The Louisiana Historical Association used ''The National Amateur'', XLI (1919) and the memorial issue of ''The Covenant, A Journal of Odd Fellowship'', February 10, 1909, in the compilation of its material on the Nixon biography.〕
