	Newark Sunday Call The Sunday Call was first published in May, 1872 and a little more than a year later it became the property of William A Ure and James W. Schoch. Their capital was principally their indefatigable labor, their knowledge of the business and their faith in the future of the Sunday newspaper. Much opposition was encountered, and there was prejudice to be overcome. The fact was soon apparent, however, that the Sunday Call was independent, but not neutral; that it was clean and fair; that it was devoted to Newark and Essex County interests, and sought to secure the best government for the people, and the paper's circulation increased from a few hundred to thousands, and advertisers soon made it a favorite medium.
