Another ecclesiastical newspaper gone

The monthly Wyoming Catholic Register, published since 1952, is following the Utah-Idaho Southern Baptist Witness into oblivion.

It's a matter of economics. Again. The Register was distributed for free to members of churches in the diocese and had a budget of $233,385 last year. Income from investments fell and other sources of financing were exhausted, according to diocesan officials.
