''The Ipswich Herald and General Advertiser'' was the second newspaper published in Ipswich, Queensland.〔 It was established in 1859 by Central Queensland separationists, who argued for a separation from New South Wales. The paper merged with another to become the ''Queensland Times, Ipswich Herald and General Advertiser'' when it changed ownership in October 1861.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://onesearch.slq.qld.gov.au/primo_library/libweb/action/dlDisplay.do?vid=SLQ&docId=slq_voyager722785 )〕 The newspaper later claimed to be the leading proponent for populating, opening up, and exploiting the resources of Queensland.〔 It is now known as ''The Queensland Times'', and is the oldest surviving newspaper in Queensland. ==History== ''The Ipswich Herald and General Advertiser'' was established and owned by Walter Gray, H.M. Cockburn, Arthur Macalister and John Rankin, Central Queensland separationists. It launched on 4 July 1859 with an ex-''Sydney Morning Herald'' employee Edmund Gregory acting as both publisher and editor.〔 Separation was achieved just prior to the first edition: the proclamation by Queen Victoria established a colony separate to New South Wales called Queensland.〔 News of this proclamation featured in the first issue.〔 The newspaper was one of three regional Queensland newspapers published during the 1850s,〔 the first in Ipswich was named ''The North Australian''.〔 In 1861 Gregory left to join the ''Moreton Bay Courier'' (now the ''Courier-Mail''),〔 and the paper was bought by three former employees of ''The North Australian'', Hugh Parkinson, F. Kidner and J. Sloman. It was then known as ''Queensland Times, Ipswich Herald and General Advertiser'', with the new ownership keen to represent the interests of Queensland more generally.〔 In 1874 the Elenborough Street site was purchased by the railways and the paper moved to "Dowden's corner".〔 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「The Ipswich Herald and General Advertiser」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
