Düna newspaper
The Düna-Zeitung was a daily newspaper that was published in Riga from 1887 to 1909 . Along with the Rigaer Tagblatt and the Rigaschen Rundschau, it was one of the three major political journals that appeared in Riga.
The founder and editor-in-chief was Gustav Pipers , who advocated the Russification of Riga's German and Jewish population as a programmatic line . From 1896 until the newspaper was closed, Ernst Seraphim was the newspaper's editor-in-chief.
In No. 264 of Saturday, November 14th (27th) 1909, the discontinuation was announced:
As a result of an agreement made with the “Rigaschen Zeitung”, which was prompted by numerous readers in town and country, both newspapers, the Düna-Zeitung will cease publication on December 31, 1909.
