by Emily Mayer Editor’s note: This submission was to run in Friday’s edition, but internet issues delayed it until today. The election cycle 100 years ago for local elections was much different than that of today. City and school elections were held in April, and campaigns were run for only a couple months, rather than the day-after-election almost non-stop tiresome campaigning of today. The results of the city election of 100 years ago were found in the April 8, 1924, edition of The Havre Daily Promoter: W. C. MCELVY ELE...

Matthew 7:15-20 Out our way, actions speak louder than words. That is true in the pasture as well as in business, city hall or the church. Now, Doc was very clear about claiming to be Babe's boyfriend. He stayed near her most of the time in the paddock and out in the pasture. When we took off with Charlie, he whinnied to Babe upon leaving and when coming home. One day, a new resident boarded her horse named Cowboy for a time in the paddock next to Doc and Babe. Well, old...
