  • Things are cooking at Saco's Pip's Diner

    James Walling, Glasgow Courier|Nov 1, 2017

    We all know eastern Montana is a food wasteland. It's about the only thing I hear people complain about consistently from Havre to Poplar. The watering holes are few and far between. And they usually aren't very good. Amazingly, Heidi Pippin and her cast of family and friends have stepped in to get the job done in Saco.

The candidate sat down with the Courier recently over a plate of wings at the Cottonwood to discuss his personal history, road to politics, and life on the Hi-Line as an conductor for BNSF.

  • Probing the Project

    James Walling, Glasgow Courier|Sep 2, 2015

    A representative from the American Prairie Reserve has responded to questions from the Courier regarding local frustrations about large-scale bison release efforts. APR Communications & Outreach Manager Hilary Parker was in contact with this publication following questions posed in writing to Fish Wildlife & Parks representatives on Aug. 20.

Asked what APR's response would be to an FWP decision to take "no...
