The last page was intended for advertising, announcements, a list of people who made a donation to the newspaper’s press fund. The initiator and organizer of thenewspaper’s publication was the lawyer Oleksandr Pidhorodetskyi, who was also the editor-in-chief. In addition to him, the editorial board included students and graduates of secondary schools: Mykhailo Vasylyk, Adolf Hladylovych, Maksym Hladylovych, Vasyl Kolinko and Yulian Seredyak.
