During the 1890s, publications were inserted into Joseph
Pulitzer‘s New York World and William Randolph Hearst‘s
New York Journal.

In November 1896, Morrill Goddard, editor of the New
York Journal from 1896 to 1937, launched Hearst’s
Sunday magazine, later commenting, "Nothing is so
stale as yesterday’s newspaper, but The American
Weekly may be around the house for days or weeks

In what is now known as Juneteenth, on June 19, 1865, Union

commemorate the end of slavery in America.

Despite the fact that President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation was issued more than two years earlier on January

the order difficult to enforce.

Some historians blame the lapse in time on poor communication
in that era, while others believe Texan slave-owners purposely
withheld the information.
