Jim McClure View Comments Leading businessman George S. Schmidt liked the way York was heading in the Gay Nineties, five years after it had become a city. But he felt some folks had held too firmly to the past for decades and, in fact, were still doing so. Let well enough alone was a motto which we devotedly followed for a hundred years and which might well have been engraven on our borough seal, he wrote in the daily York Gazette in February 1892. He didn t stop there.

He wrote these words in connection with businessman A.B. Farquhar’s aggressive improvements to the newspaper he had just acquired, the York Gazette.
