HAROLD T. CHASE

from History of Kansas Newspapers (1916)

HAROLD TAYLOR CHASE has done the editorial writing for the Topeka Daily Capital since April, 1889. The Capital carries a strong editorial page, and Mr. Chase distinguished himself in his editorials on sound money in the days when free silver and the gold standard were so much discussed and finances were the political issues in the country.

In "Who 's Who in America" appears the following sketch of Mr. Chase: "Chase, Harold Taylor, newspaper man; born, Wilkes-Barre, Pa., April 13, 1864; son of Edward Henry and Elizabeth (Taylor) C.; A. B., Harvard, 1886; married Annie Thompson, of Topeka, Kan., January 15, 1890. Began newspaper work on Wilkes-Barre Record, 1886; editor Topeka Daily Capital since 1895. . . ."
