HIGHWAY FATALITY IN MALTA (11/29)
(AP) Twenty-two-year-old Duane Thomas Webb of Malta was killed about 7:45 a-m.
when his pickup truck ran off U-S two and crashed into the Malta Tire Company
at the intersection with U-S 191 in Malta.
The patrol says the truck jumped the concrete median, sideswiped a parked truck
and crashed into another. The impact threw the pickup into reverse, and the
truck crashed backward into a storage building.
The patrol says Webb apparently had fallen asleep at the wheel.

In 1962, Alfred Watkins loaned the gun to the Montana Historical Society so it could be publicly displayed. But a few months ago, Jim Watkins decided to get the gun back, so it could be displayed at the Phillips County Museum in Malta.
But the state says the gun was a permanent gift, and won't give it back. They suggest that Watkins take his case to the meeting of the society's board of trustees, on January 13th in Helena.

FIRE IN GLASGOW EARLY WEDNESDAY (11/24)
The Glasgow Fire Department responded to trailer house fire Wednesday morning
at 2:39 am.
According to Glasgow Fire Chief Neil Chouinard a trailer house at #7 Turning
Wheel Trailer Court in Glasgow started burning Wednesday morning but the fire
was put out by neighbors before the fire department arrived. The Fire Chief
said that the probable cause of the fire was an electric weedblower that set
a plastic garbage sack on fire which then started the outside wall of the trailer
started burning. A resident of the home was awake and noticed the fire. He then
woke his wife up and had to go to a neighbor's home to call the fire department
because the fire had burned the telephone wire.
The Glasgow Fire Department responded to the fire call with 2 trucks and 17
firefighters. No injuries were reported but one side of the trailer was burned
and there was smoke damage.
The Glasgow Fire Department also reminds everyone as the holiday season approaches
to test your smoke detector.
FORT PECK LAKE #1 WITH FISHERMEN (11/24)
The Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks have listed Fort Peck Reservoir
as the hottest fishing spot in Montana.
According to a recently released report on Montana Statewide Angling Pressure,
Fort Peck now ranks number one in the state for the number of anglers who take
to its waters. Canyon Ferry Reservoir is ranked number two and the portion of
the Bighorn River between Afterbay Dam and the Bighorn Fishing access site is
ranked third.
The Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks-for the time period from March 1997
to February 1998 shows that Montana fisherman put in 2.88 million angler days
on Montana waters during that time period. That figure is up from 2.5 million
in 1995. Fort Peck recorded 108,562 angler days in 1997. That is up from 64,046
in 1994-a 70 percent increase. It is also a 158 percent increase over 1993,
when 41,999 fisherman used the lake.
The ranking of Fort Peck as number one in the state marks the first time that
a warm-water fishery has been the top lake and the top overall water in Montana.
In the past, it was always trout fisheries.
The report also shows that although Fort Peck may now be number one in the state,
Montana is still solidly dominated by trout fisherman. About 86 percent of the
fishing pressure in the state is aimed at streams, rivers and lakes with trout,
while warm water fisheries account for 11.1 percent of the pressure.
Other findings in the survey show that state residents account for 80 percent
of fishing pressure in the state and August was the busiest month for anglers
with 480,529 angler days, or 16.7 percent of the years total. November was the
slowest month for anglers accounting for just 2.6 of the year's total. More
than 85,000 surveys were compiled during the year and both resident and non-resident
anglers are involved in the random sampling. The first such survey was done
in 1957 and it has been compiled every two years since 1989.
HATCHERY STILL MOVING FORWARD (11/24)
The proposed warm water fish hatchery at Fort Peck continues to become closer to a reality as the United States Army Corps of Engineers and the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks are close to signing an agreement that will have the Corps of Engineers complete a planning study for the hatchery.
The study will cost $250,000, with the Corps of Engineers picking up half of that cost. They are now awaiting an agreement with the Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks that will spell out that the plan that formulate will meet the obligations of what the department wants constructed at the hatchery. The other $125,000 that is needed for the study will come from an agreement between Two Rivers Growth Inc. and the Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks.
The department is allowing Two Rivers to borrow money against the expected revenues
from the warm water fish stamp to pay for half of the planning study.
According to Chuck Lawson, one of the main organizers of the hatchery project,
several private entities have come together to loan the $125,000 for the planning
study.
Last week representatives of the Army Corps of Engineers and the Department
of Fish, Wildlife and Parks met last Tuesday in Glasgow for preliminary discussions
on the plan for the hatchery. As soon as all the agreements are signed, the
Corps will begin their planning study, which could take from 6 months to a year
to complete. It is hoped though that the study will be finished as soon as soon
as possible so the Montana Congressional delegation can begin the appropriation
process to find federal money to fund the Fort Peck Warm Water Hatchery.
GAMBLING FIGURES RELEASED (11/24)
The city of Glasgow received $71,700 in revenue from taxes paid on gambling
machine income.
This tax revenue accounts for over six percent of the city's general fund budget
in fiscal year 1999. The money is Glasgow's share of over $25.3 million in gambling
machine income taxes distributed to local governments statewide. Glasgow's total
for 1999 is $3000 less than 1998's earnings.
Other towns in Valley County receiving gambling tax funds are Nashua $4100;
Opheim, $5300; and Fort Peck, $400. Valley County itself received $61,800. Figures
released by the Department of Justices' Gambling Control Division show video
gambling during the recent fiscal year grew 3.6 percent over 1998. The growth
rate is similar to the previous five years, with the exception of a spike in
1998 when revenues grew 8.5 percent. Video gambling operators have paid about
$291 million in taxes since 1989, the year the state authorized its current
gambling-taxation policy.
Stockman Bank of Montana has reached an agreement with Western Security Bank to acquire six Western Security branch locations. The branches, with assets of $57.0 million, are in Glasgow, Hardin, Malta, Miles City, Plentywood, and Sidney.
R. C. Lucas, Stockman Bank CEO, said, "Stockman Bank will be selling the Glasgow and Malta locations to the First Security Bank of Havre. First Security has existing locations in Poplar and Scobey and can effectively service the Glasgow and Malta Markets due to their close proximity."
CHAMBER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR RESIGNS (11/22)
Glasgow Chamber executive director Kim Lacey resigned her position on November
15th.
The Chamber is currently undergoing a restructuring of staff and they have made
a decision to hire a full time executive director to handle the business of
the Chamber of Commerce.
According to members of the Chamber executive board the current chamber staff
lack continuity and because of the reason, they have asked all three members
of the staff to resign and re-apply for the job as executive director. The chamber
staff consisted of an executive director and two support staff positions and
all three of those positions are part time.
Lacey made a decision to resign effective immediately and not to apply for the
one full time position. The other two support persons, Roberta Barstad and Toy
Olsen will be staying on until the end of the year.
The Chamber board is currently advertising for the position of full time executive
director and after filling that position will evaluate whether support personnel
need to be hired to compliment the executive director.

Gordon Hahn received $2,500 with a matching fund going to the school district.
CHAMBER CONTINUES LOOKING FOR MORE DEVELOPMENT (11/14)
Kim Lacey, Executive Director of the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce & Agriculture,
told area residents this week not to be too disappointed in losing out to Great
Falls in the Venture Star project. She noted that there are several other interests
for the area that the Chamber is working on. Lacey stated that at last Thursday's
board meeting, there were several presentations on economic development in the
area. Skip Erickson and Marv Bethea reported on the progress at St. Marie, there
was a speaker regarding an Air Force Mentoring Program, and discussion on the
Rotary Rocket, with the possibility of getting some contracts in the area.
Also, the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce & Agriculture has contacted UPS to
see if the company is interested in relocating its distribution buildings in
Glasgow since the fire in Wolf Point destroyed the building there. She said
that Glasgow has 3 buildings that could fit the needs of the company.
LATEST ON OUTLOOK FIRE (11/14)
(AP) The huge heap that was Outlook's only active grain elevator still smolders,
but the little town is bustling with efforts to recover from the Halloween-night
fire that swept through town.
Construction workers poured footings Friday for a new post office, a cleaning
company scrubbed Outlook School, Cenex gas station owners discussed whether
to rebuild, and homeowners continued to clean up and haul away the charred remains
of houses, cars, barns and tool sheds.
A prebuilt post office reportedly is en route from Spokane to be installed this
week. "I don't know what normal's going to be now. Our town is a little
skimpy," said School Superintendent Jim Riedlinger. The fire destroyed
20 buildings, including three homes, and forced evacuation of the town's 150
residents and causing an estimated $2.5 million in damage.
It began some eight miles west of town, apparently by sparks from a passing
locomotive on the Dakota Missouri and Western Railroad. Winds near 60 mph drove
it through Outlook and two or three miles beyond.
Of several northeast Montana communities hit hard by wildfires that night, Outlook
suffered the most. Wolf Point, Poplar and Sidney also were damaged, and the
state fire marshal is investigating all four incidents.
Firefighters saved Outlook School from the flames, but smoke damage is estimated
at $200,000. The 43 students are going to classes in Flaxville, 10 miles away.
Riedlinger says the school could reopen Nov. 29.
Local officials and DMVW executives haven't heard whether the Columbia Grain
Corp. plans to replace its grain elevator, the only one of three that wasn't
abandoned. All were destroyed.
And despite a loss of a locomotive, two rail bridges and thousands of wooden
railroad ties, the DMVW could resume its weekly service in the area by Dec.
1, Vice President Dennis Ming said.
Officials of the North Dakota-based railroad have said it appears one of their
locomotives sparked the fire, although a state investigator has not made that
official. The railroad has set up a temporary office in Outlook to assist recovery
efforts.
The railroad has hauled scrap concrete and iron to impromptu landfills near
town, and employees have used company equipment to help property owners clear
rubble.
"Whether or not we started the fire, we would be doing the same thing,"
Ming said. "We do not have the official cause of the fire, but we're going
to do as much in this interim period to help out as we can. We just think it's
the neighborly and right thing to do."
DMVW is tallying claims from people who lost uninsured property and will decide
this week if it will reimburse residents for their uninsured damages, Ming said.
If the state determines the train caused the fire, property owners' insurance
companies most likely will seek reimbursement from the railroad's insurance
company, he said.

GLASGOW'S CRIME RATE DROPS (11/12)
The city of Glasgow's crime rate fell last year according to figures released
by the Montana Board of Crime Control.
Glasgow's crime rate for 1998 was 37.79 crimes per 1000 residents. This compared
to the numbers from 1997 which showed Glasgow at 43.50 crimes per 1000 residents.
The crime numbers from 1998 put Glasgow in 22nd place among cities and towns
in the state of
Montana.
West Yellowstone had the highest crime rate at 101.20 crimes per 1000 residents
with Ronan in second place and Havre in third. Billings was ranked 4th, Great
Falls fifth and Missoula in sixth place.
Among area cities Plentywood was ranked 23rd , Harlem 25th and Wolf Point ranked
at 29.
As a state, Montana's crime rate declined slightly last year, but the incidence
of violent crimes rose sharply. The annual survey of law enforcement agencies
found four-thousand-799 crimes committed for every 100,000 Montanans during
1998. At the same time, the rate of violent crime defined as murder, rape, robbery
and aggravated assault jumped by 25 percent. Murders in Montana dropped by nearly
half, rapes were up slightly and aggravated assaults were up by 32 percent.

The cause of the fire is under investigation. There were no injuries reported.
GLASGOW LOSES TO GREAT FALLS IN VENTURESTAR BID (11/5)
Glasgow once again lost the fight to develop the former Air Force Base as
Great Falls got the nod as the top Montana contender for a Venture Star Spaceport.
Here is the press release from the Montana Department of Commerce:
Great Falls' Malmstrom Air Force Base has emerged as the top Montana contender
for a Venture Star Spaceport, according to the Lockheed Corporation. In a July
meeting in Helena, Lockheed advised the Department of Commerce and representatives
of Great Falls, Glasgow, Manchester and Billings that they would come back with
a first-choice selection by the first of the year. All four communities had
submitted proposals.
Lockheed called Malmstrom best suited for a Venture Star spaceport. Altitude,
access to essential services and in-place infrastructure gave Malmstrom the
nod over second-ranked Glasgow. Malmstrom's higher altitude means a less costly
launch, an important consideration in future launches that will be privately
rather than publicly funded. Similarly, accessibility to essential services,
transportation, a labor force and existing infrastructure weighed in the site's
favor. Lockheed based its evaluation ranking on launch safety, market service,
systems operations and existing spaceport-useable facilities.
"All the communities played an important part in demonstrating to Lockheed
and the other fourteen states competing for one of the Spaceports, that Montana
is a state of desirable choices," said Commerce Director Peter Blouke.
"They have done Montana proud as we vie for a spaceport designation and
the subsequent long-term quality jobs that would come with it. We will be calling
on them to aid in our efforts to attract other aerospace opportunities to the
state.
"Commerce, the state and our congressional delegation are ready to begin
the process of helping Great Falls secure a spaceport license from the Federal
Aviation Administration, " Blouke added. "This is an essential piece
of the next proposal."
During the last legislative session two pieces of legislation were enacted to
support Montana's bid to land a spaceport. Senate Bill 220 authorized the sale
of up to $20 million in general obligation bonds to support Venture Star spaceport
infrastructure development. House Bill 260 includes $300,000 to help offset
the cost of preparing a final proposal. The four communities had previously
agreed that in the final bidding process they would all support one proposal.
A lawsuit has been filed with the Montana Supreme Court challenging the funding
mechanism used in HB260. The Court is expected to render its opinion by late
November - early December.
Under the current Lockheed timeline, final proposals are due during the third
quarter 2000. Site(s) selection is anticipated to occur by the fall of 2001.
Lockheed anticipates operating two spaceports in the United States.
