    On September 12, 1928 the Anaconda Standard merged with Butte Miner to form The Montana Standard.[3] At the time it was owned by the Anaconda Company.[4] In 1959, It was sold to Lee Enterprises.[4]

    In 1971, under the leadership of Betty Danfield, the paper's women's section won the Penney-Missouri Award for General Excellence.[5]
