Le Messager was a French language newspaper, founded in 1880 in Lewiston, Maine. It serving the sizeable Franco-American (Franco-Canadian) population in that city. Le Messager operated from 1880 to 1966. It was a daily newspaper until the mid 1950s when it became a tri-weekly publication. In the early 1960s it adopted a weekly schedule, published every Thursday. It was succeeded by the Nouveau Messager in 1966; but the following year, it closed as well for lack of funding.[1][better source needed]

The newspaper was operated out of 223 Lisbon Street in Lewiston, which became the home of Lewiston Auburn Magazine in September 2011.
