Iola Register

Iola Register A daily history of Allen County since 1867, the Iola Register proudly publishes five days a week. We will make them as carefully and consistently as we can.

We aim to create a space on facebook.com/IolaRegister where readers can exchange perspectives and informed commentary that enhances the quality of our news and information. We value thoughtful comments representing a range of views that make their point politely. A few things we won’t tolerate on our page: personal attacks, obscenity, vulgarity, profanity (including expletives and letters

followed by dashes) and commercial promotion. While most comments will remain posted if they are on-topic and not abusive, moderating decisions are subjective. Thank you for joining our community on Facebook.
