The ''Mornington Standard'' was a weekly newspaper, circulating in the Frankston, Mornington, Dromana and Somerville areas of Victoria, Australia from 1889 to 1939. Usually 4 pages in length, the 'Mornington Standard' covered news from all towns on the Mornington Peninsula. It contained a mix of local news, reports of the proceedings of local councils, churches, schools, the police courts and local sport.〔Mornington Standard found at http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-title205, accessed 4 September 2012〕 ==History== The 'Mornington Standard' was founded on 5 October 1889 by Robert Ewins, but had little success, and went through a series of owners. On 7 March 1895 its masthead first proclaimed "Incorporating Mentone and Moorabbin Chronicle". From 1903 to 1905 it was owned by prominent local media entrepreneur Henry James Richmond. In July 1905 Henry’s son William took over ownership of the Standard from his father.〔Kirkpatrick, The Bold Type: a history of Victoria’s country newspapers 1840-2010 page 232〕 It was renamed the Mornington and Dromana Standard on 11 July 1908. bearing issue number 1021, thus acknowledging its 1889 startup. The last issue with this banner was 4 March 1911 shortly after being taken over by William Wilson Young (ca.1851 – 1946), who had considerable experience with regional newspapers.〔 The title reverted to 'Mornington Standard' on 11 March 1911 as issue 1154. The business prospered under his management, and during war years and immediately after, there was a surge in demand for local news. In 1919 his eldest son, William Crawford Young, took over management of the business. In 1924 the office and print shop moved to Wells Street, Frankston, and in 1925 W. C. Young floated a company, Standard Newspapers Pty. Ltd. to build the business. He died 17 September 1928, but his family retained an interest in the company.〔
