Several miles south of Havre, near the edge of the Bear Paw Mountains, sits Fort Assinniboine. At its heyday in the late 1800s, there were more than 100 buildings that housed up to 800 troops. It was the largest fort of its kind in the West. Time has taken its toll on the buildings, but more than 10 remain standing today, including most of the central part of the fort. That's more than any other fort in the West. History buffs and tourism experts have long looked at the fort...
MISSOULA (AP) — A state judge has no authority to grant a motion to dismiss a 2002 rape case, the former Missoula County attorney said when given a change to respond to the motion. Missoula County Attorney Kirsten Pabst, a graduate of Havre High School, filed a motion last month to dismiss the case against Cody Marble, arguing that three witnesses, including the alleged victim, had recanted their testimony about the alleged rape in a juvenile detention center when Marble was 17 and the complainant was 13. Jail officers also s...

By Emily Mayer News was rather quiet in the papers this week 100 years ago. However, over the course of the past year, articles had appeared here and there regarding the issue of prohibition of alcoholic beverages. J. K. Bramble, editor and owner of The Hill County Democrat, was clearly against the idea and published regular articles rallying against any attempts to prohibit alcohol to legal adults (teenagers were quite another matter, as we have learned). The other Havre newspapers, the Promoter and the Plaindealer,...
Editor: We have a granddaughter who loves to go and play at the Hospital Park. As grandparents, we love going with her to play and watch her. However, we don't like to watch out for the dog poop. At the park there are stands that have bags for people to pick up after their dogs. Dog owners, please think of the families that go to the park with little children and pick up after your dogs. Your dog poop is not Tootsie Rolls. It is dog poop. Tammie Dibblee Havre...

Mark 4: 38-41 Out our way, just about everybody now knows about Goliath and the culvert. I crossed Beaver Creek when it was in flood and the bridge was wiped out - a few sniffs at the water and in we went. Never got much above the hocks, but it was noisy and the current strong, and I thought we might have some trouble. Nope, Nada. Riding along the nature trail we came to where a tree had fallen across the path and he would have to step pver the trunk and around the branches....
