None of north-central Montana state lawmakers showed up for their weekly legislative video conference Tuesday, with each saying they had other matters to attend to. Each week, Havre Public Schools and the Havre Area Chamber of Commerce host weekly video conferences with state lawmakers Tuesdays at noon in the Robins Administration Building during the state legislative session. The conferences allow lawmakers to update area residents about the latest developments in Helena and field questions from constituents. K’lynn Sloan H...
Hill County Commissioner Diane McLean expressed frustration to Great Northern Fair Board members during the board’s monthly meeting Tuesday night for not having moved any closer to hiring a manager-groundskeeper. “We don’t have a job description for manager,” board member Karla Vaughn said during the meeting. She said the hiring committee had not met since the last meeting, Dec. 20, and so had not agreed on whether the position will be one or two, whether it will have a different title and whether the house on the fairgro...
The Havre City Council Tuesday night voted to confirm the mayor’s appointment of Mel Paulson as the city’s new fire chief. Paulson, who has been with the department for a total of 21 years come April, two as its assistant fire chief, was sworn in at the meeting. He succeeds Tim Hedges, who announced his resignation at last month’s meeting, as fire chief. After the meeting, Paulson said he thinks heading the department will be a real privilege “I’ve been here 21 years and to serve the people of Havre and a city of this capacit...
The Havre City Council voted 5-1 to back a proclamation to support residents of the city of Whitefish and condemn anti-Semitic activities that have thrust the western Montana city into the headlines in recent months. When the proclamation passed it did so with applause from local Boy Scouts, mothers and a small assortment of other community members in the Council Chambers. Havre City Council member Caleb Hutchins, who brought the proclamation before the council for consideration, was joined by Matthew Boucher, Andrew Brekke,...
Press release The nonprofit statewide organization Recycle Montana gave its first annual Recycler of the Year award at their recycling informational event held at the State Capitol in Helena. Rep. James O’Hara, R-Fort Benton, awarded the “Golden Bale” — a crushed composite of aluminum cans painted gold — to his constituents from Fort Benton Recycles. “We decided it was time Montanans are recognized for their efforts to offer recycling opportunities,” Recycle Montana President Candi Zion said. “We chose this grassroots, vol...
After the most disruptive and disreputable presidential campaign and transition in memory, I seriously relate to the words of “My Fair Lady” lyricist Alan J. Lerner from the song “Show Me,” which begins: “Words! Words! Words! I’m so sick of words! I get words all day through; First from him, now from you! Is that all you blighters can do?” That song gets at the point that actions can count as much as words. Meaning can be found in the actions the speaker takes both before and after political words are proclaimed. But as much...
It is very difficult to say good-bye to an amazing person who has touched our lives. Patrick James Mader, age 55, left us Jan. 11, 2017. His smile and hugs will be missed.

After two full weeks of Frontier Conference play in January, it appears one thing is a certainty — men’s and women’s teams are going to continue to beat up on each other. And, as it relates to the Frontier, the new NAIA Men’s and Women’s Coaches Polls, released Tuesday, reflect that fact. On the women’s side, in just one week, the poll went from having four Frontier teams inside the Top 25, and just one other receiving votes, to having three teams in the Top 25, but three m...
For the final time this season and for some, the final time in their careers, the Havre Blue Ponies wrestled inside the HHS gymnasium Tuesday, taking on the Sidney Eagles. Over the years, the two Eastern A rivals have had some great competitions, mostly coming at the state tournament. But this time, on senior night, Havre High dominated, winning the matchup going away, 49-13. The night turned out to be especially memorable for the four Havre seniors, even though one of them, J...
