Plain Words - First published in June 1870, this was a seven column sheet, the effort of W. H. H. Brainerd, formerly the editor of the Bellefonte National.  This effort was "independent Republican" in political leanings.  After the Plain Word folded in July 1870, Mr. Brainerd moved on to Tyrone where he became editor of the Tyrone Herald.  He took all the Plain Words materials with him to be utilized by the Herald.  Rumors about Bellefonte speculated that he was paid to cease printing.  The Watchman remarked that "this may or may not be true, but it is within the range of probability."

At the beginning of April, 1872, the offices relocated into the basement of the Bush House, in space previously occupied by the Bellefonte National.

In March of the same year, the Daily News ceased publication.  In May of 1899, Wilbur Harris bought the Republican and the Daily News, both published from the same plant and assumed the editorship from Ed Tuten.

About 1911, Charles E Dorworth took control of the Republican and published the paper until January 29, 1931 when the doors were closed for the final time.  During his ownership it was never a money maker and during the papers last several years, he operated the paper at a loss.  It continued to operate the paper because of the political prestige.  During his ownership of the paper, Dorworth held the office of PA Secretary of Forests and Waters under Governor Fisher.

James Fiedler and Robert Cassidy, having settled into in their new Keystone Gazette plant in the Allegheny Street building owned by the Curtin family, decided the Daily News needed some competition and transforming the paper into the Daily Gazette.
