Description | "The Gleam," a Juneau, Alaska paper by Helen McEvoy (1916-1919), focused on local politics, supporting candidates during elections. It briefly suspended but resumed due to demand. McEvoy criticized Juneau during WWI, highlighting issues like gambling and prostitution. She advocated for women's rights and reported on fishing. Conflict with Bradley Sawyer and the Alaska Labor Union led to her expulsion and the Gleam being labeled "unfair." It was suspended, and McEvoy took a teaching position.
