A Linotype was acquired in 1907, and a press in 1910; prior to those dates the type had been hand-set and the newspaper printed by the rival Adams County Democrat.

After the war, he embarked on a big-game hunting expedition to Africa, where he contracted blackwater fever; the aftereffects of this led to his death in 1928.

During his term as editor and publisher, the Tribune became the first Nebraska newspaper outside of the Lincoln-Omaha area to use wirephoto, and the only one to use three wire services.

Stephen Hermann was named managing editor to replace Fowler; he had previously worked at the Omaha World-Herald and at the Lincoln Journal Star, and immediately prior to his appointment at the Tribune had served as director of student publications at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, Louisiana.

[10] Hermann retired after 18 months, and was replaced as managing editor in 2011 by Amy Palser, who had been the Tribune's news director from 2001 to 2005.

[11] The Tribune is published six days a week: (until July 2017) Monday through Friday afternoons, and Saturday mornings.

In July 2017, the Tribune began publishing Monday through Saturday mornings, thus the long-standing tradition of afternoon editions ended.
