The Savannah Tribune was founded in 1875 and went through two hiatuses (from 1878 to 1886 and from 1960 to 1973). Originally named the Colored Tribune, the paper was established by Louis B. Toomer Sr., Louis M. Pleasant, and Savannah native John H. Deveaux who served as the first editor. The first edition was published in 1875. The name was changed to the Savannah Tribune in 1876. The newspaper published until 1878, when the all-white printers in the city, refused to produce it. It reopened in 1886. Deveaux served as the paper's owner and editor until 1894. Sol C.
