WASHINGTON, Jan. 25 After examining climate data extending back nearly 100 years, a team of Government scientists has concluded that there has been no significant change in average temperatures or rainfall in the United States over that entire period.
While the nation’s weather in individual years or even for periods of years has been hotter or cooler and drier or wetter than in other periods, the new study shows that over the last century there has been no trend in one direction or another.
The study, made by scientists for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration was published in the current issue of Geophysical Research Letters. It is based on temperature and precipitation readings taken at weather stations around the country from 1895 to 1987.

NY Times in 1989: No Warming In US Since 1895
RUSH: There is a piece that we dug up: January 26th, 1989, New York Times. Headline: "US Data Since 1895 Fail to Show Warming Trend." So in 1989 the New York Times ran a story saying that using data, US data since 1895 "failed to show" any warming.
