The price of a postage stamp in 1974 was a mere 15-cents and though the first email was sent two years earlier, that form of communication wouldn’t become popular until some 20 years later. In February of ’74, Barbara Streisand’s The Way We Were was at the top of the Pop charts, President Richard Nixon was on his way to being impeached and in Whitewater, Mont., a small, shy young woman was at her first day at a job which would become a career for more than the next four decades. “I was 22 year...

Budget subcommittees proposed further cuts to Gov. Steve Bullock’s budget throughout the second week of the Montana Legislature. “If we can get through the budget and balance it, that will be probably all we can do,” said Rep. Nancy Ballance, R-Hamilton. There is conflict between Gov. Steve Bullock’s proposed budget and what the Republican-dominated legislature says is a more fiscally responsible approach. Gov. Bullock proposed roughly $73 million in cuts, but Republican lawmakers are proposing cuts of roughly $120 million. Gov. Bullock...
You know Google for its search engine (need to find something, just Google it), but for the 21 people that attended the January 12 class on Google basics, they learned that it offers so much more for personal, education and business use. The free class was funded through Triangle Communication's Connected Community Challenge grant, in partnership with the Hi-Line Technology Committee, Malta Schools, City of Malta, PhillCo and the Malta Chamber of Commerce. Kelly McCann of Malta School's led the... Full story
The Bad Larrys, a talented acoustical duo from the Flathead Valley are coming to Malta and the Tin Cup Bar & Grill on Saturday, January 21st. The Bad Larry’s featuring Jay Aiken on acoustic guitar and Chris Arndt on upright bass play a mix of genuine Americana music and their signature sound features tight vocal harmonies with amusing and often off-beat story telling. Their repertoire includes everything from Johnny Cash, Steve Earle, Junior Brown, Southern Culture Skids, Simon & Garfunkel, Lyle Lovett, Jerry Garcia, David Grisman, Corb L...
Apparently it’s going to be one of those winters. Because it didn’t start early I didn’t expect much. After all, this is Montana. It gets cold here and it snows every win-ter. Some winters just happen to start much earlier than others. This one didn’t. October was balmy. November was mild. It wasn’t until December that it began to snow in earnest and get cold. By January folks who usually stay all winter were talking about heading to warmer climes. Barb and I postponed our Christmas trip to L...
Sirs and Madams; Over the past several months I have had the opportunity to travel across much of our beautiful state of Montana, from my home in Malta, Mont., to the Missoula area. On each occasion I noticed that when I pass through the quintessential American working-class village of Bonner, there is displayed on one residence a flag which formally represented a portion of the Confederate States of America. The flag on display is the flag of the Army of Northern Virginia; commonly, but mistakenly thought to be the flag of "The Confederacy."...
It’s January; may the political squabbles kick into high gear! While our legislators and Congress tackle big issues, let’s take a look at what really makes Montana tick, and for many people, that’s recreation. And, it ain’t just about huntin’ and fishin’ anymore. Recreation on our public lands is not only what many of us do – even on cold, winter days – recreation is a true economic driver in Montana. At a round-table discussion on recreation and the economy in Missoula a few months ago, folks from bike touring companies, GPS mapping businesses...
I felt like quite the dandy for the first couple days of 2017. My mother-in-law bought me a fancy, pewter pocket watch, with a slick little silver chain which attached the beaut to the left front pocket of my Levis. The watch came in a fancy blue box with the name A.E. Williams emblazed in a brilliant gold typeface inside the lid – along with the company crest depicting two lions atop the statement of “manufacturers of some of the finest Pewterware in the World.” Flipping the nifty little watch over in my hand assured me this was not some...
In my life, last Tuesday was a great day in many ways for me but it was also one of the most traumatic days I’ve had in a while. I had been highly anticipating the day because I would make my weekly trip to Havre. This particular time I had been waiting to make the trip to pick up a blend-er that I had ordered online. This blender was not only affordable but it possesses a motor and blade combination that completely liquefies fruit and vegetables. I had tried juicers before but they always l...

Sympathy to the family of Morris Mavencamp. Sympathy to victims of floods down south and other places.
