Did you know Nebraska City once had a German-language newspaper?
Would you guess that it once had a larger circulation than the other Otoe County papers?
The Nebraska Staats-Zeitung helped many Germans decide to move to Nebraska in the 1800's and early 1900's. Jacob Beutler (pronounced bite - ler) was the owner, editor and publisher for most of the life of the paper.
