- The Aberdeen Saturday Pioneer was a weekly newspaper edited and published by L. Frank Baum between 1890 and 1891. The first issue of the weekly appeared on January 25, 1890, and the paper was based in Aberdeen, South Dakota. Baum bought a local paper, Dakota Pioneer, from John H. Drake and renamed it as The Aberdeen Saturday Pioneer. Baum wrote editorials in his column titled Our Landlady in which he published satirical and humor views of the region. In the first issue Baum introduced a fictitious boarding house keeper with strong political views named Sairy Ann Bilkins. His editorials on native Americans in The Pioneer have been still considered to be controversial, some argue that his views were racist remarks whereas the others claim that his views were sympathetic to these people's plight, especially their loss of land, religion, and culture. His editorials also contained the discussions of the theosophical themes. Due to financial problems the paper ceased publication, and the final issue of Pioneer was published on March 21, 1891. The Pioneer presented Baum's attitudes about politics, suffrage, tolerance, and religion and also provided the themes which would later appear in his fiction, especially his fourteen Oz books. (en)
