Ownership changed a handful of times early in the newspaper's existence, eventually passing to the family of J.W.
Underhill, a one-time owner of The Log Cabin, purchased assets of a smaller Conway newspaper, The Democrat, which operated from 1881 to 1885 and had been revived in 1899.
Underhill married into the Robins family, and the two papers merged as The Log Cabin Democrat in late 1900.
Since its online debut in 1997, TheCabin.net has been augmented with multiple specialty websites through Morris DigitalWorks, covering niches such as dining, wedding planning, and local entertainment.
