Description | The Semi-Weekly Mountain Democrat, published briefly in Placerville, El Dorado County, California, in 1860, was part of the rich tapestry of California "mining newspapers" that emerged during the Gold Rush era. Founded during a period of transition in the mining towns, it reflected the changing nature of the region from lawless camps to more organized settlements. Placerville, a significant hub of newspaper publishing in El Dorado County, saw a succession of papers before and after the Semi-Weekly Mountain Democrat, including the long-lasting Mountain Democrat, which chronicled the area's history until its merger with the Placerville Republican in 1943. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1860 of this newspaper. |
