Democratic candidate for Montana governor Ryan Busse made a stop in Havre Thursday to speak with potential voters and sat down with the Havre Daily News for an interview on his candidacy and the reasons he is running. Busse, a former gun company executive and nearly 30-year resident of Montana, said he had been considering a run for some time, but the past few years have made him feel that the state is in desperate enough need for course correction that he decided to go for...

Last week, a registered historic hotel in Glendive burned. The night the fire was started was also the night of the first winter blizzard. Firemen from a hundred-mile radius came to fight the fire which razed the hotel and a neighboring building. My daughter’s office is in the upper floor of a building adjacent to the hotel. Firemen battled the blaze all night and the following day to keep her building from burning. For three days the hotel fire smoldered and flared. For three...
Recently, opinion pieces and information sent to legislators regarding the counties’ decision to levy 77.9 mills instead of the state-directed 95 mills has been circulating in both statewide newspapers, and internal legislative correspondence. It appears that the message being distributed is counties are giving large tax breaks to corporations and out-of -state homeowners while doing little for the average Montanan. While the numbers can be interpreted to support that message, and they — the numbers — are in fact accur...

Job 19:26-27 - "I know that my redeemer lives!" Out our way, we all know the old saying, "Ain't a horse that can't be rode; ain't a cowboy can be throwed." And that is pretty much true for all walks of life. Everybody gets tossed now and then. But sometimes it seems some end up "sunning their moccasins" more than others. If into each life some rain must fall - some of us end up under a waterfall! I can certainly testify to that! If you regularly read these columns, you know...
The night of fright has passed. Those costumes that were eagerly obtained with high anticipation of being donned around town are now crammed into already forgotten corners of bedroom and closet floors, thrown into the shadows of exile, perhaps never to be worn again. As buckets of candy are consumed, little wrappers fall like autumn leaves - shiny, plastic costumes never to be worn by any other confectionary again. Perhaps not since some holiday on the other side of summer...
As we grow old, our hair turns gray, oh, yeah! We're made of clay. Where's the thrill of yesteryear? We sit alone each day. We miss our dear ones, oh, so much, Lord, help us when we're low! Our bodies healing takes so long ... of this You surely know. Empty, lonely, lower that dirt; our dear ones died, they're gone. Oh, Lord, we ache and still we hurt, why do we linger on? Useless, hopeless, we're like dead trees. Where's hope in our last days? If we have strength to read...
You know, Lord, it might be fun to go back in time (for a short time) when life moved at a slower pace. We'll leave behind: high speed internet, cellphones, telephones, TV, GPS and electricity. Back then, daily chores were milking cows, gathering eggs, cleaning coop and barn, slopping pigs, feeding bucket calves, hoeing garden and plum trees, cooking meals from scratch and, in autumn, making jams, jellies, canning fruits, vegetables and meat, making soap, making some of our...

It was a soggy September day in 1994. Washington-Grizzly Stadium was still the small venue that featured grass end endzones and crowds of under 15,000 fans. Of course, by then, the Griz were on the rise, with junior Dave Dickinson already one of the best quarterbacks in Montana history, and popularity was skyrocketing. But, for me, that’s the day everything really changed for Montana football, and it was all because of then arch rival Idaho. That day, the Vandals were r...
