Editor’s note: This version corrects the name of the writer of the editorial. Recently, I listened to a radio interview with Tim Sheehy on Working Ranch radio show that is very concerning. When Tim Sheehy was asked about MCOOL (mandatory country of origin label) his answer sided with the packers. He said they should have the ability to mix foreign beef with US beef without being penalized. To be clear the only penalty that the packers now have is to not to dishonestly label their products. He said that mixing in foreign b...
The summer has come and gone, and that means it’s time for postseason golf as the Havre Blue Ponies head to the Eastern A Divisional Tournament this week in Laurel. Before Havre gets to the tournament in Laurel, the Ponies turned in two good performances last week on the road. Last Thursday, Havre played at the Billings Central Invitational with the Pony girls finishing fourth and the HHS boys fifth. The Pony girls were led by Tierra Parker’s personal best score of 95, whi...
It was finally time for the Montana State University-Northern football team to make its 2024 home debut.

Northern did get 109 yards on the ground be former Havre Blue Pony M...
MISSOULA - In a top 25 matchup in Missoula, the Montana Grizzlies came from behind to knock off Western Carolina 46-35 using a dominant rushing attack for the second straight week.

There were tense moments in Washington-Grizzly Stadium early as the Catamounts, last year's FCS leaders in...

Mr. Sheehy, The Montana American Indian Caucus cannot express how let down we are by your remarks, where we can hear you disparaging the Crow Nation. You said that roping and branding with a member of the Crow Tribe was “… a great way to bond with all the Indians out there while they’re drunk at 8:00 a.m., and you’re roping together.” On other occasions, you talked about attending the Crow Fair parade, saying that “they’ll let you know when they like you or not if Coors Light cans fly by your head.” Your words perpetuate the...
The longer I live, the less certain I am about anything. In fact, when I detect certainty in my thinking, I immediately stop and investigate to find the flaw. You’ve all met Leo. He works in my yard a couple half-days a week. Leo is much more than a garden worker. I’ve come to depend on Leo for all manner of help. He is a gentle man, educated, generous, and has a brilliant sense of humor. Over time, he’s come to seem a grandson to me. He trusts me enough to tell me when he th...
I have a problem with inspirational quotes. “You are never too old to set a new goal or to dream another dream,” is a quote attributed to C.S. Lewis. He didn’t say it. “It is never too late to be what you might have been” is something George Eliot is supposed to have said. She never said that, either. I could keep on going, but it’s a safe bet that, if you read it on Facebook and it is attributed to Mother Teresa, Einstein or Keanu Reeves, they almost certainly did not say...
