History

The first issue of the paper was published on 14 August 1880. [1] The proprietor of the paper at this time was Samuel Hawkins, who also published the Wagga Wagga Express . [2] The paper was then published in Wednesday and Saturday editions through to 1883. [1] [3] After this date, the publication appears to have switched to a single Friday edition up until March 1884 when publication ceased. [4] Fourteen years later, a newspaper of the same name began publication under a new proprietor, Geoffrey Goodwin Lucas, with volume one being released on 5 January 1894. [2] At that time, the paper appears to have been released in Wednesday and Friday editions; between 1914 and 1935 the frequency varies. [5] In 1921 the paper came under the ownership of Leslie Patrick Higgins with John Arthur Bradley, the proprietor of the competing publication the Temora Independent , acting as a silent partner. [6] In 1935, the final edition of The Temora Star was printed as Bradley had bought out Higgins' share of the newspaper and subsequently absorbed it into the aforementioned Independent. [7] As of April 2016, the Temora Independent continues to be published. [8]
