PRESSPASS April 24, 2013 The Bozeman Daily Chronicle makes changes to obits OBITUARY SUBMISSION GUIDELINES “As we did with weddings and engagements a few years ago, we added color to the obituary page to improve the overall design and to address the wishes of our readers. The addition of symbols in obituaries is a trend that sev- eral outside vendors were offering in various — and costly — design packages. We figured we could do it ourselves. Even though the changes to the page included an overdue rate increase, the improvements have been positively received, both by readers and the funeral homes that provide the bulk of our obituaries.” − Nick Ehli, Managing Editor Bozeman Daily Chronicle SERVING MONTANA NEWSPAPERS SINCE 1885 PAGE 2 My name is Linda Fromm MNACalendar and on June 4, 2013, I will celebrate 34 years with the APRIL MNA, serving as office 25 University of Montana School of Journalism Dean Stone Lecture manager and advertising Eli Sanders - Pulitzer Prize Winning Associate Editor of coordinator.

A Union List of Montana Newspapers in Montana

Til® Union L1®t Agent or* library' 1® authorised under all 0CIC copyright® i@ reproduce! distribute copies of this list without limit. ) MONTANA HISTORICAL SOCIETY NEWSPAPER PROJECT NAME ENTRY INDEX COPYRIGHT 1978-1986 OCLC, INC. Tha Union List Agent or library 1s authorized under all OCLC copyrights to reproduce and distribute copies of this 11st without limit. INTRODUCTION This union listing of 1,121 Montana newspapers is the fruit of a three and one half year project centered at the Montana Historical Society in Helena, and principally funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities(NEH). The project, to paraphrase from the original grant proposal, was to survey, catalog, and enter into the CONSER national serials data base via the Online Computer Library Center(OCLC) automated system the bibliographical and holdings information for all Montana newspapers held in publicly-accessible repositories in Montana, and to produce a union list of these newspapers. The project also microfilmed selected backruns in the Society's collection, and borrowed and filmed papers not previously held by the Society. The running title on this list, "Montana Historical Society Newspaper Project," is a misnomer, a happenstance of the way the list was identified in OCLC. More accurately, this was the "Montana Newspaper Project," this state's participation in the ambitious United States Newspaper Program of the Office of Preservation at NEH.

Matt Rosendale/Nrsc Ad – Fact Check
MATT ROSENDALE/NRSC AD – FACT CHECK OVERVIEW • Jon Tester, who recently had his 18th bill signed into law by President Trump, has been recognized by independent analysts and Montana newspapers as one of the most effective lawmakers working across the aisle to get things done for Montana. • Matt Rosendale, the handpicked candidate of Washington, DC special interests, has been propped up by millions of dollars in outside Super PAC spending and will do their bidding – not what’s best for Montana. • Jon Tester has been a leader in efforts to work with President Trump to strengthen our border security, including adding more border patrol agents to the border and bolstering terrorism prevention efforts. • Matt Rosendale has repeatedly opposed efforts to keep Montanans safe - he was one of only seven state senators to vote against legislation to toughen penalties for human trafficking and make the law more victim-centered, voted against creating a permanent sexual assault prosecution office in the Montana Department of Justice, and voted against funding a service to notify victims of sex crimes when their attacker was released from prison. • Matt Rosendale is a multimillionaire East Coast real estate developer who moved to Montana after buying a $2 million trophy ranch that he doesn’t even ranch himself and a political opportunist who started his campaign with a “pants on fire” lie about Jon Tester’s record. CLAIM FACTS TRUMP: A vote JON TESTER HAD 18 BILLS SIGNED INTO LAW BY PRESIDENT TRUMP AND HAS BEEN for Jon Tester is PRAISED FOR WORKING ACROSS THE AISLE TO GET THINGS DONE FOR MONTANA a vote for Chuck Schumer, Nancy HEADLINE: “Tester Named One Of Congress’ Most Effective Senators.” [Missoula Current, Pelosi.

Box 25287 Denver, Colorado 80225-0287 Swan River Bridge HAER No. MT-147 (page 1) HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD SWAN RIVER BRIDGE I. INTRODUCTION Location: Swan River Bridge Spanning the Swan River on Secondary Route 209 at Milepost 4.98 Bigfork vicinity Flathead County Montana Quad: Crater Lake, Montana (1964) UTM: 12/277729/5326249 Date of Construction: 1963 Present Owner: Montana Department of Transportation Helena, Montana Present Use: Highway Bridge Significance: The Swan River Bridge is significant for its association with the Montana Department of Transportation's (MDT) secondary highway improvement program concurrent with the Interstate highway program. One of those projects was Secondary 209 (Swan River Road) between Bigfork and Swan Lake. The area had become an important resort area for recreationalists and vacationers. The road (and bridge) also provided better access to the increasing number of residences in the area. The bridge is a representative example of a standard MDT-designed prestressed concrete bridge. Other than the replacement of the guardrails, the bridge has not been 'altered or otherwise modified since its construction in 1963. Historian: Jon Axline, Montana Department of Transportation October 2013 Swan River Bridge HAER No. MT-147 (page 2) II.
