The Machländer Volksbote , also Machländer Volks-Bote, was a private Catholic weekly newspaper founded by Leopold Kordesch in 1895 , which was produced in his printing works in Perg . In 1929 the newspaper was merged with the Linzer Wochenblatt of the Press Association.

Local weekly newspaper

First a liberal and later a German-progressive line was represented. After Kordesch's death, his widow initially continued the business and sold it at the end of 1895 to Bernhard Blaschök, who ran the printing company and newspaper until his death in 1928. His widow initially continued the business and sold it to the Linz Press Association in 1929.

The main editors were the cooperators of the Perg parish, who mainly represented the Christian-social world view of Vienna's mayor Karl Lueger . The editorial was also called Catholic-Conservative.
