This article describes the first journalistic initiatives in the village of Boa Vista, capital of today's state of Roraima, limited to the period from 1907 to 1918. It is a short period of circulation of local newspapers, soon replaced by newspapers from the capital Manaus. These local newspapers were published thanks to the individual efforts of a few literate people, including the educator Diomedes Souto Maior and Bishop Gerardo Von Caloen. At the same time that it allow us to see the political powers and the social constitution of the small village, it also allow us to understand the utopian plans and projects that guided the conduct of the elite in the process of formation, and its self-granted mission of taking civilization to the hinterlands “fighting against the oppression of potentates”.
