    After the Cowles family bought the Des Moines Register and Leader in 1903, their editors initiatied several innovations that proved immensely popular with readers. Among them was a daily front-page editorial cartoon, and J.N. "Ding" Darling was hired to provide it. His "In Good Old USA," published on May 6, 1923, earned the Register the first of its many Pulitzer Prizes. With the Register on and off until his retirement in 1949, he would win another Pulitzer for the paper in 1943.

    Each day this month, as the Register marks its 175th birthday, we’re sharing front pages from noteworthy moments in history.
