History
The paper was established in February 1928 as the Hollywood Press by Abner M. Church as a community newspaper serving a portion of Oregon's capital city. The name of the newspaper was changed in December 1932 to Capital Press.[3]
Bill Duncan published a column from 1981 until his death in 2011; the News Review of Roseburg, Oregon deems it "still pertinent" and is republishing it as of 2018.[4]
