Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
It’s a good idea to keep an eye on the legislators in order to see what kind of mischief they are up to. Even if they are not from your district. You may remember Mary Franson; she was our representative until a few years back when things were redistricted and she was sent across...
To the Editor:
The FCC is proposing to eliminate net neutrality. Net neutrality is defined as: the Internet is a public utility like the phone company. Everyone is equal in the eyes of the Internet.
How does this affect us as rural Internet users? First, a little background. I already pay for...
To the Editor:
Tim King’s column where he ranted about Trump labeling North Korea as a rogue state was troubling. Tim decided to label Trump as rogue for pulling us out of the Paris Climate Agreement.

Letter to the Editor:
In reference to John King’s letter concerning the issues that occurred during Shahram Hadian’s presentation at the Browerville Community Center, I think John left out a few details. Were the protesters dragged out of the building? I assume they could have walked out on their...
To the Editor:
Jesus tells us: ‘Do to others whatever you would have them do to you.’ It is a simple command, instructing us to treat all people with the care, dignity and respect they deserve as children of God. At the same time, it is a very challenging command, especially if we fear our...
To The Editor,
State Legislature has taken the Governor to court. How did we get here?
The process this year has me concerned. The State Legislature passed TWO budget bills. The first one was done Late April or early May and the Governor sent it back signing none of it. The second was done...
