The Courier started its life as the Saline County Digest, founded in 1876 by W. A. Webber. [1] In 1882 it was bought by B. A. Beavers and given the name the Saline County Review, before being bought by S. H. Whitthorne and named the Saline Courier in 1883. [1] In 1888 it was sold to Col. T. C. Mays and renamed it the Benton Courier. [1] After a brief period as the Times-Courier it was purchased by L. B.
