The Bill of Rights has become controversial. Some think we need a disinformation board to save us from an excess of First Amendment’s free speech.

It was a great season for the Havre Northstars American Legion baseball club, but it eventually had to come to an end. Unfortunately for the Northstars, it came to an end with a 15-8 loss to the Coeur d'Alene Lumbermen at Legion Field Sunday night. The Northstars did show grit as they came back from a six-run deficit to tie the game, 8-8, heading to the seventh inning, but it was still a tough pill to swallow.
