Description | The Daily Eagle, Wichita's pioneering daily newspaper, debuted on May 20, 1884, heralding a new era in local journalism. Despite its brief 17-issue run, it left an indelible mark on the city's media landscape. Renamed the Wichita Daily Eagle on June 8, 1884, and later simplified to the Wichita Eagle on August 18, 1886, it steadily grew under the stewardship of Marshall M. Murdock and Roland P. Murdock. Championing Wichita's commercial interests, it envisioned the city's ascent to prominence within Kansas. Reporting on national events like the 1884 Republican National Convention, it embraced innovative formatting changes, reflecting the spirit of progress. Its legacy laid the foundation for the enduring Wichita Eagle we know today. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1884 of this newspaper. |
