Gertrude E. N. Tratt: "Apparently a weekly for the first five years of its existence, the Gazette then became the first of the two dailies in the newspaper history of Glace Bay. It terminated about 1950, although its circulation figures were well over four thousand at that time. Independent for most of its fifty years, it became a Labour organ about 1948. Published by the Gazette Publishing Company, its manager in 1909 was John Byrenton, who was replaced in 1923 by A. D. MacNeil.
Originally it had eight 16" x 22" pages. The number later varied between eight and sixteen and there were always seven column on each page. Its circulation has also varied widely between 2,000 and 8,200. Its price of $3 eventually doubled."
