As anyone who has lived through a heartbreak can tell you, life can change in a second. But as many people who have lived through a tragedy in the community of Phillips County can tell you, as fast as disaster can hit, your neighbors will be there to pick you up just as fast. “Oh my goodness, they have been given all kinds of clothes, food, money, dishes, we have some furniture coming in,” said Angela Dean-Goertz a day after fire destroyed his sister-in-law’s home. “It has just been amazing...

Hello constituents of MT SD 17, from your State Capitol in Helena. The special session, called by the Governor, of the 65th Legislature will begin on Tuesday, November 14th.

Five things are presently known: 1) Republicans do not want to raise taxes or revenue enhancements as they are being called; 2) Democrats do not want to reduce the bureaucracy of the government; 3) the Governor did not manage the costs of...
Dear editor, Trump got friendly with Putin again thru his chummy talks during the Asian trip. Trump states he believes Putin when he stated to him that the Russians did not get involved with the election. Yet the fact that OUR intelligence agencies have proven different.

Yet the downtown business people fail to clean parking spots so when you get out of a vehicle the area is dangerously icy. Thank you to Albertson's they keep their...
Editor's Note: The Montana Highway Patrol Trooper in Parker's column last week was not Malta's MHP Trooper Dan Ohl. I thought grizzly bear encounters were a thing of my past. Now I’m not so sure.

Oh, they came close a few t...
It’s like I blinked and then all of a sudden winter happened. I found out very quickly upon moving here in 2012 that Montana Weather doesn’t play by the same rules as other states that I have lived in. I look outside today and think, there is no way winter starts on Thursday, December 21, when it is already here. When the second snow this fall hit last week and I had to uncover my car, I went from sneakers and a t-shirt to Muck Boots and an insulated hoodie. The roads at times can be tre...
