The Commonwealth (Pittsburgh)
''The Commonwealth'' was a weekly newspaper published in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from 1805 to 1818, before continuing as ''The Statesman'' until 1836. It was the city's third newspaper, and one of several in the ancestral lineage of the ''Pittsburgh Post-Gazette''.
==Origin==
''The Commonwealth'' was born out of dissension in the ranks of the Democratic-Republican Party in Pennsylvania. The conflict pitted a moderate "Constitutionalist" faction (called "Quids" by opponents), supporting Governor Thomas McKean, against the "Friends of the People," who favored radical legal and judicial reform and sought to defeat the governor's re-election. Ephraim Pentland, a 20-year-old journalist who had been employed at the ''Aurora'' in Philadelphia, established the ''Commonwealth'' to give voice in Pittsburgh to the radical cause in opposition to the Quid-oriented ''Tree of Liberty'' and the Federalist-leaning ''Gazette''.〔 The paper first appeared on 24 July 1805 as a four-column folio sold at $3 per year. It adopted the Pennsylvania state motto — "Virtue, Liberty and Independence" — as its own.
