STEVE PEOPLES JILL COLVIN Associated Press GREEN BAY, Wis. — In an effort to repair some of the damage he had inflicted on his presidential campaign, Donald Trump endorsed House Speaker Paul Ryan to end a four-day standoff that exposed the deeps chasms in the Republican Party over his candidacy. Trump struck a rare conciliatory tone at a Wisconsin rally Friday, imploring his party to unite behind him and opening a full-throttle attack on Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. "Arm in arm, we will rescue the country from the O...
As Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump deals with the fallout from a series of bad headlines and controversial statements, both Republicans in Montana's congressional delegation, who have endorsed the billionaire, sought to disavow his statements without condemning the nominee himself. Both Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., and Rep. Ryan Zinke, R-Mont., were in Havre this week and both commented on the issue. When Daines came to Rocky Boy's Indian Reservation to meet...
It took less than one hour Thursday afternoon for a jury to find Joseph E. "Jed" Damson not guilty of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl with a cognitive disability. "I always believed in my client's innocence, but when you have a case like this, you always worry," Damson's attorney, Jeremy Yellin, said after his client's acquittal. Yellin smiled and hugged Damson immediately after the deputy clerk of court read the not guilty plea, while many members of Damson's family le...

If there's one position that's unsung in college football, it's the offensive line. No box scores, no stats, rarely a name in the paper or on the news. Yet, the linemen are usually the difference between a strong offense and a weak one. With so many teams in the Frontier Conference aspiring to have great offenses this fall, and with so many good defenses out there, Frontier teams are banking on a strong offensive line to make them go. That's the case at Montana State...

By Emily Mayer Most of the local news in the past couple of weeks centered around the upcoming Chautauqua and candidates for public office. The year 1916 was an election year, too, and many Hill County citizens were running for the various open offices. Business was also brisk. This article was published in the July 29, 1916 issue of The Havre Plaindealer: EXPRESS BUSINESS GOOD IN HAVRE Only Two Offices in State Ahead of the Gas City Office No better index of the substantial growth of Havre could be had than in a comparison...
The Universe has been conspiring this summer to make me long for one of the few things I miss about living in the mountains of western Montana: Clear water. Lots and lots of clear, cold water. It gathers in lakes, vast and small, roils and surges in wide rivers, tumbles down mountainside creeks, trickles up through fresh springs. It pours cool and remarkably tasteless from the tap and leaves not a single stain on the counter top or the laundry. I didn’t appreciate it enough, until I lived where bodies of water were scarce a...

While attending a funeral of a friend who had passed away, the pastor proclaimed an excellent message of eternal hope, peace and comfort for the deceased. Speaking to the family members and friends of the comfort they can have now if they trust in Jesus Christ along with the assurance of seeing their lost loved one again almost sounds like a pipe dream that is too good to be true. How can this minister speak of what is beyond the grave, of eternal assurances describing a place where there is no more pain, tears, sorrow or...
Mark 6:45-52 By this time those of you who have followed the "Goliath Chronicles" know of his greatest fear: that culvert on the nature trail in Beaver Creek. No matter how many times I have forced Goliath to cross it - allowed him to sniff it and led him over it - he is always terrified of it the next time we have to cross it. As a friend of mine has noted, poor old "Doc" has a brain the size of an orange, and regardless of how many ties I have shown him there is nothing to f...
