_____
At the age of seventeen, having been educated in the common schools of his native town and at Kent's Hill, Me., Seminary, Edwin B, Haskell began to learn type-setting in the office of the Portland (Me.) Advertiser. After becoming expert at this craft he worked as a journeyman compositor in Portland, New Orleans and Baton Rouge, La., and in Boston. He was last employed at type-setting in the office of the Boston Saturday Evening Gazette. In the spring of 1857 be left the Gazette to become a reporter on the staff of the Boston Journal. Three years later he withdrew from the Journal's staff to accept a better position on that of the Boston Herald, where he was Court, Legislative, and financial reporter and editorial writer. In October 1865, Mr. Haskell, Royal M. Pulsifer, Justin Andrews, Charles H. Andrews, and George G, Bailey conjointly purchased from Edwin G. Bailey one-third interest in the Herald, and in 1869 they acquired the remaining two-thirds. Under the new ownership Mr. Haskell became the editor-in-chief, and he continued in that capacity until the autumn of 1887, by which time he had individually acquired a third interest in the paper. Influenced by the financial difficulties of Mr. Pulsifer, who was the Herald's business manager, he sold him his interest, and resigned his editorship. In the following spring, when the aspect of affairs had much improved, and the joint proprietors of the paper had reorganized so as to become a stock company, he was able to resume his ownership, but he did not return to the editorial desk.A controlling interest in the Minneapolis Tribune, purchased by Mr. Haskell in 1884, he disposed of sometime later on satisfactory terms. He has owned a controlling interest in the Journal, an evening paper of Minneapolis, Minn., since 1889. He is also the owner of a third interest in the Morning-Gazette-Herald and in the Evening News, both of St. Joseph, Mo. A stockholder of the Plant Investment Company, he is a director of that organization. He has been the president of the Boston Herald Corporation since his first election to that office in 1890. In Charlestown, Mass., during his early manhood, Mr. Haskell was a member of the School Committee and the president of the Common Council. First appointed 011 the Metropolitan Park Commission in 1895, he was reappointed for five years in the spring of 1900. For many years he has been the president of the Newton Library trustees and of the Newton Cemetery Corporation; and be has served in the same capacity the Boston Press Club, the Newton Jersey Stock Club, and the Newton Club.
