Excerpt from Fifth Biennial Report of the Librarian of the Historical and Miscellaneous Department of the Montana State Library, 1899-1900 We trust its contents will enable you to see that through the untiring zeal and persistent effort of the Librarian, an excellent beginning has been made towards systemizing the mass of useful material, which had been accumulating for the past thirty-six years, but which for many reasons was unclassified and somewhat disorganized, when she entered upon her duties two years ago.

The state papers are kept scrupulously neat and orderly, easily found by the daily visitors; material for historical research obtainable in a few mo ments upon any subject represented upon its shelves.

It will be necessary to have, for the year 1899, $400 for the binding of the State papers, $600 for the publication of a volume, Contributions to the Historical Society, required by Section 2393, Political Code, and $500 for current expenses, and a like amount for similar purposes for 1900.
