William H. Brearley, who had previously been the advertising manager at the Detroit News, assumed the position of managing editor. In 1908 with a majority stock purchase of the paper, Henry Stevens and Edward D. Stair took over ownership. Harry P. Hetherington became editor and held the position until his death. He was followed by T.C. Greenwood and then by Grove Patterson. A new group of owners assumed control of the Journal in 1917, but did not organize it as a corporation until April 25, 1919. The officers and owners of the corporation were: N.C. Wright, president; H.S. Talmadge, vice president; Paul Block, secretary; and C.C. Verman, treasurer. The last printing plant of the Journal was built and completed in 1906, occupying the space to the rear of the old printing plant.
