By Emily Mayer Before this local history column begins, may I extend a warm welcome to those participating in and enjoying the Rocky Boy Pow-Wow, August 1-4 this year.

Lest we forget. I tell this story lest we forget. We have suffered a tragedy in our little community. You are probably tired of hearing me celebrate every raindrop. The rain that makes this mountainous country look like the green, green, green of Ireland, wears the familiar comedy/tragedy mask, same as any country with arroyos and gullies.

In July 1999, then-Chinese Communist Party head Jiang Zemin decided that Falun Gong’s popularity and spiritual tenets threate...
I am very concerned about the future of our federal representation in Montana. The issues that plague our great nation were not brought about by just one of the two big parties. They were brought about due to the long-time cooperation between uni-party members, both blue and red. Freedom Republicans have been staunch defenders of our liberties and have attempted to block some of the runaway spending and endless wars that Congress continually pushes. Unfortunately, these stalwarts are dwarfed by the establishment (uni-party)...
One of my favorite stories as a child was “Stone Soup.” I don’t know if you know it or not. It’s an old European folktale, and there are a lot of variations, but in most of them two soldiers come into a town during a war. They ask for food, and everyone tells them they have nothing to eat. So the soldiers build a fire, and they ask an old woman if they can borrow a pot because they are going to make stone soup. “Soup from a stone?” the old woman asks. “Yes,” they say. “We a...
