Summary/Abstract: This study aims to explore political, economic and daily life in Serres on the eve of the Balkan Wars through the lenses of the first Turkish newspapers of Serres. Siroz was first published in 1910 and then changed its name into Hançer in 1911 and continued to be published until 1912. Additionally the study tries to show how the intellectuals of the city reflect different events and political developments explained in official documents and correspondences of the period to the the city dwellers, and how a provincial intellectual considers political events happening in the capital city of the Empire and reflects his readers through the newspapers as well. This study also tries to explore how columnists of these newspapers consider representatives of the central authority and elected authority in the town, and their proposals for solving the problems that affect the town and their efforts to be the voice of the people.
