Sixty years of service, with one idea: to upbuild Jefferson and Marion
County.
The Jefferson Jimplecute was first issued as a weekly, then semi-weekly,
daily, then again as a weekly. It never lost an opportunity to advocate
every proposed plan that had in it anything that would put Jefferson or
Marion County to the front.
The Jefferson Daily Jimplecute founded in 1865 by Col. Ward Taylor, is
the only one of twenty-three newspapers, published at one time or
another in Jefferson, to endure until the present.
Did you ever stop to think that the name Jimplecute carries with it more
meaning than any other name now in use?
Ignorance of this fact has made many think that it meant nothing and was
therefore without significance. This demonstrates the fact that nothing
should be cast aside without a thorough investigation and we are
publishing here, in its entirety, an article written by the late Judge
W. T. Atkins of Jefferson, giving to you the various important words
that mean much, that go to make up the one word JIMPLECUTE.
