The Bozeman Daily Chronicle is a daily newspaper published in Bozeman, Montana.

History

[edit]

In 1883, The Weekly Chronicle was first published by Sam W. Langhorne in Bozeman, Montana.[2] Later that year it expanded into a daily and relaunched as the Bozeman Daily Chronicle.[3] It was soon purchased by A.K. Yerkes.[4] Charles S. Fell became a co-owner in 1891.[5]

The two men sold the Chronicle in 1899 to David Marks on behalf of undisclosed buyers for $11,000.[6] The new owner was later revealed to be businessman Marcus Daly, who had also recently acquired the Livingston Enterprise.[7][8] Daly died in November 1900.[9] His estate sold the Chronicle two years later to William McClure Bole, who had edited the paper for the past two years and previously worked at the Great Falls Tribune.[10]

Bole and Oliver Sherman Warden purchased the Great Falls Tribune in 1905[11][12] and sold his Bozeman paper in 1907. Decades later Bole was inducted into the Montana Newspaper Hall of Fame.[12] The new Chronicle owners were Bole's brother James P. Bole and H.W. Howard. J.P. Bole published the Chronicle until his death in 1940.[13]

In 1946, Jefferson and M.C. Jones acquired the paper,[14] and then sold it in 1954 to the Scripps League Newspapers. After the sale, Jones. G. Nicholas Ifft III was named general manager.[15] Pioneer Newspapers split off from Scripps in 1975 and took the Chronicle with it.[16] In 2017, the company sold all of its papers to Adams Publishing Group.[17]

Content

[edit]

It is noted by many of its residents and non-residents to have an entertaining Police Reports section, which includes "many minor crimes of a more humorous or absurd nature".[citation needed] In 2011, they published a book, We Don't Make This Stuff Up, a compilation of over 30 years of some of these crimes.[18]
