  • Hill County employee health insurance premium increase discussed

    Patrick Johnston|Updated Mar 31, 2022

    At their weekly business meeting Thursday, the Hill County Commission tabled discussion of possibly raising county contributions to employee health insurance plans to cover a recent rate increase by their insurance provider. The Montana Association of Counties, the entity through which county employees get their health insurance plans, recently announced that its rates were going up 6.5 percent and the county’s insurance committee recently recommended that the county absorb this increase so employees wouldn’t need to see thei...

  • View from the North 40: It's the same, but totally different

    Pam Burke|Updated Mar 30, 2022

    I don’t know if this is an east side of the Mississippi vs. west side thing, or urban vs. rural, or maybe this modern generation of deer just lost its will to be wild, but I do know that I got the raw end of the deal when it comes to deer wrangling. A March 18 article in United Press International reported that a deer in South Bend, Indiana, got trapped in an empty backyard pool, so animal control and police officers responded to rescue the animal. The article says that the o...

  • Out Our Way: The black Angus - Matthew 7: 21 - 23

    Updated Mar 25, 2022

    Out our way, the roundup is nothing like it was in the old days when it was all open range. For us today, the herd usually stays within the boundaries of fenced-in pastures, but in the old days, herds tended to wander about and get mixed in with each other. In those days, every roundup included a representative, a "rep," from other outfits who checked brands and then cut out and claimed his own outfit's cattle. A "Split S" steer might look just like that "Diamond V" steer...

  • Pastor's Corner: What is in a name?

    Updated Mar 25, 2022

    Ok, this is me a Roman Catholic breaking tradition! Just to clarify the above statement; the tradition mentioned above is a personal tradition (that is why I used a lower-case t instead of an upper-case T) not a church tradition. The tradition I mean is my personal tradition of using the upcoming Sunday readings for this reflection in the paper. The readings I will be writing about are Exodus 3: 1-8a, 13-15, 1 Corinthians 10: 1-6, 10-12 and Luke 13: 1-9. I am sure that you...

  • Hello, God. It's me, Mara.

    Updated Mar 25, 2022

    You know Lord, some days one awakens with a song in their heart, a smile on their lips and feel "in love" and it doesn't even have to be Valentine's Day or June! We might just have our heart in tune. Some favorite things might be hot soup on a cold day or a cold soup made of raw, blended vegetables on a hot day. Also, how about a good book to read? A friend suggested a few things she loved, she named: the American flag, our country, nature, her home, her dear family and she lo...

  • Speaking of Democracy

    Updated Mar 25, 2022

    If you have opened any messages from either the Democratic or the Republican party lately, you know the state of the nation is parlous, and it's up to you to fix it by making sure the other party, which is actually causing the trouble, doesn't win any more elections. But wait a minute. Saving the country better not be that simple, because the other party is going to win again sometime. The teeter-totter principle of American politics clearly states that, whichever party is up now, is going down again soon. And while we may...

    George Ferguson|Updated Mar 25, 2022

Yes, once again, girls basketball was as good around these parts as anywhere in the state, and that's not going to change anytime soon. Neither will the fact that the Hi-Line and Havre area produces some of the best individual talent around, and this year's Havr...
