The ''Calgary Herald'' is a Canadian daily newspaper published in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The paper was first published in 1883 as ''The Calgary Herald, Mining and Ranche Advocate and General Advertiser.'' The newspaper is currently owned by the Postmedia Network. == History == The ''The Calgary Herald, Mining and Ranche Advocate and General Advertiser'' was first published 31 August 1883 in a tent at the junction of the Bow and Elbow by Thomas Braden, a school teacher, and his friend, Andrew Armour, a printer, and financed by "a five-hundred- dollar interest-free loan from a Toronto milliner, Miss Frances Ann Chandler." It started as a weekly paper with 150 copies of only four pages created on a handpress that arrived 11 days earlier on the first train to Calgary.〔 A year's subscription cost $3.〔 When Hugh St. Quentin Cayley became editor 26 November 1884 the Herald moved out of the tent and into a shack.〔 Cayley quickly became partner and editor. Eventually the publisher's name was changed to Herald Publishing Company Limited and began publishing the ''Calgary Daily Herald'', a daily version of the newspaper, on 2 July 1885. In 1897 the editor of the ''Herald'' was impressed by the "humor and witty journalistic prose" of Bob Edwards— one of Canada's leading journalists at the time— with a reputation as critic of government and society and as a "supporter of the emancipation of women and the temperance crusade" reprinted some of Edwards' articles in the ''Herald''. From February 1890 to August 1893 and December 1894 to September 1895, the weekly paper appeared as the Wednesday issue of the daily paper. Publication of the daily paper was suspended between 21 September 1893 and 13 December 1894. It was not until fall 1983 that it was published seven days a week.〔 The Calgary Daily Herald's name was changed to the ''Calgary Herald'' in February 1939, and continued to be published as an afternoon paper until April 1985. Since then it has been delivered in the mornings. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Calgary Herald」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
