Description | The Columbus Weekly Courier chronicled the events of Columbus, New Mexico, from 1920 to 1921. Located near the Mexican border, Columbus gained notoriety due to Pancho Villa's raid in 1916. The paper succeeded the Columbus Courier and briefly operated as a daily before returning to weekly publication. Under the editorship of Wilson Kilgore, it served as the primary source of news for Luna County residents. Covering local happenings and agricultural news, it reflected the town's economic focus on farming. Despite its short lifespan, the Columbus Weekly Courier contributed to the community's sense of identity and provided a vital connection to the broader world.
