    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.

  • The Erosion of the Racial Frontier: Settler Colonialism and the History
    THE EROSION OF THE RACIAL FRONTIER: SETTLER COLONIALISM AND THE HISTORY OF BLACK MONTANA, 1880-1930 by Anthony William Wood A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History MONTANA STATE UNIVERSITY Bozeman, Montana April 2018 ©COPYRIGHT by Anthony William Wood 2018 All Rights Reserved ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the history faculty at Carroll College and Dr. Swarthout who pushed history majors such as myself to work as interns with the Montana State Historic Preservation Office in Helena, Montana. It was at SHPO that I was so fortunate to work for Kate Hampton, who had already worked tirelessly keeping the Montana’s African American Heritage Places Project alive for over a decade, and who continued to lead and guide me while I researched and wrote for the project for three years. Classes I took at MSU, especially Dr. Mark Fiege’s seminar on the American West, offered strikingly new approaches that opened up different methods as well as mountains of scholarship that would profoundly inform how I thought about race and the American West. I am further indebted to my wonderful committee members, Drs. Mary Murphey, Amanda Hendrix- Komoto, Billy Smith, and my chair, Mark Fiege for all their time spent talking with me about sections of my thesis, different approaches I might try, or even just listening as I tried to organize my ideas. I am also thankful and sorry to my office-mates Amanda Hardin and Jen Dunn who were unlucky enough to work within ear-shot.

  • The Peoples Power League
    The Peoples power league : a progressive organization in Montana 1911-1915 by Edrie Lee Vinson A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in History Montana State University © Copyright by Edrie Lee Vinson (1976) Abstract: K. Ross Toole, professor of Montana History, has characterized the progressive era in the state as nothing more than "sound and fury and one small tax reform," Yet in the general election of 1912 the electorate adopted four initiative measures reforming the political process. This unprecedented fact is certain evidence of the success of the progressive spirit in Montana's political history. In 1911, after repeated failures of Montana's assembly to legislate political reform, Miles Romney organized the People's Power League to circulate initiative petitions for a direct primary, presidential and vice presidential primary, popular nomination of senators, and a corrupt practices act. League leaders believed the passage of these measures would effectively take political power out of the hands of large corporate interests and give it to the people. Politically, the League contained Democrats, Republicans, Progressives, Socialists and laborites. None of the prominent members held state elective office at this time. Professionally, they were lawyers, judges, newspapermen, merchants, bankers, doctors, public employees, ranchers, farmers, and a large contingent of union affiliated laborers. Representing a wide ethnic variety, they also ranged from new arrivals on the Montana scene to the older pioneers who came with the first gold rush. Although the League managed to avoid economic, political and geographic schisms when dealing with political reform, it was only partially successful in achieving broad social changes.
