History

The Neosho Daily Democrat began publication in 1904 or 1905 with William G. Anderson its first owner and editor. The paper was published Monday through Saturday. By 1930, James G. Anderson was added to the masthead as publisher. In 1940, the paper is still controlled by the Andersons.

In 1952, the name changed to The Neosho Daily News and in 1953 the paper absorbed its competitor, The Neosho Times, which dated from November 16, 1869. At that time, its circulation exceeded 7700. Howard Bush was the publisher.
