The Seattle Republican was a weekly newspaper in Seattle from 1894 to 1913,^[1] and is considered Seattle's first successful African American newspaper.^[2] Its founder, Horace R. Cayton Sr., was a former slave in the American South.^[3] Clayton's wife, Susie Revels Cayton, was associate editor starting in 1900 and she contributed articles and short stories.^[1] The newspaper sought to portray "the black race" in a positive manner and hoped to create harmony between races through open discussion of sensitive race issues. This upset white readership and likely contributed to the newspaper's closing.^[1] The newspaper is part of the collection of the Library of Congress.^[4]
