The Tocsin
''The Tocsin'' (often referred to only as ''Tocsin'') was an Australian socialist newspaper, published from 1897 to 1906. It was co-founded by several prominent political figures, including Edward Findley, John Percy Jones and Bernard O'Dowd. Jack Castieau served as the first editor, while artist Norman Lindsay drew its first cover design. Writers for the paper included Frank Anstey, Lilian Locke and Frank Wilmot, and John Arthur Andrews was editor for a time. ''Tocsin'' readers formed themselves into "Tocsin Clubs", conducting well-attended public meetings for political discussion in several places across Melbourne. Co-founder Findley was expelled from the Victorian Legislative Assembly in 1901 after ''Tocsin'' was found to have libelled King Edward VII. In the pre-federation era in Australia, ''Tocsin'' argued against Federation. ''Tocsin'' was succeeded by the ''Labor Call''.
