    Updated Sep 5, 2023

  • Letter to the Editor - Why can't the tribe fix a water problem

    Updated Sep 5, 2023

    Let’s start this severe case of disabled senior abuse and an EPA water violation by saying the Rocky Boy tribe has people who work for them, sub-contractors, who are merely laborers and do not have any carpentry skills.

The chain of command does not exist. There is also no senior advocate, either. Maybe I am that self-appointed person. I have b...

    Updated Sep 5, 2023

That being said, the folks on Local Government seem to be a great group with which to work. This coming week, we will finalize our work plan for the upcoming session. There have been a few disappointments and frustrations after session....

  • The Postscript: Circumstantial evidence

    Carrie Classon|Updated Sep 5, 2023

    It was time to come back from Mexico. It wasn’t because of the weather. The weather was wonderful. The nights up in the mountains were cool, and the days were warm, and sometimes, in the afternoons, a thunderstorm would roll in, and a refreshing rain would fall, leaving the air clean and sweet. No. It wasn’t the weather. And it wasn’t really my family — although, I do miss them. My parents have been in the thick of summer activities at their cabin by the lake. They had lots to...
