Letters to the Editor
Editor, So sez the wisest man they say who ever lived. He continued, “The wind blows to the South and turns back to the North; round and round it goes, ever returning on its course. All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full. To the place the streams come from. There they return again.” Perhaps the climate changers could explain the dinosaurs bones over east? According to scientists it was once a swamp, man the climate sure changed over there. And there was no drill’n rigs or model Ts or 737s. Like the tower of Babel, those billionaires are flopping around up there. To each their own, I guess. According to the magazine Scientific American, our Milky ...
Editor, Thank you, St. Joseph’s Hospital for the grand idea of football tickets for canned goods. Thank you Polson Pirate fans for donating the 691 pounds of food. Loaves and Fish Pantry volunteers appreciate your help in stocking our shelves for winter. Town Pump’s annual...
Editor, Six years ago I wrote about serious concerns we all are having. I called it “The Birth and Growth of Terrorism.” The following are some questions I posed only six years ago. How many hundreds of years ago could these same questions have been asked about terrorist type acti...
Editor, Fair warning for all of us who have always parked our cars near the water level of Mission Dam or other lake on the reservation when the water level is low. CSKT is now giving out tickets and the fine is no little thing at $95. I have parked there to launch my kayak which is too heavy for me to ca...

Editor, This letter is written regarding the Covid Emergency located in Rental Programs regulated by the Tribal Housing Program in Pablo. I heard about the emergency program through a friend who knew I could use some help. I quickly applied with the program. After weeks had passed and no letter or phone c...
Editor, The United States is leaving a 20-year debacle in Afghanistan. Afghanistan is very poor; has ISIS-K and al Qaeda to deal with; needs outside help; has a questionable future; is filled with very fear-filled, desperate people. The massive madness witnessed at the airport is a perfect demonstra...
Editor, When many opinions swirl about COVID-19 infections, looking at numbers helps me reach conclusions. Montana has a large rural population, no huge cities, and you’d expect that the relatively dispersed population would mean reduced infection transmission. Montana is the fourth largest st...
Editor, Those of us old enough to remember the shout from the top of the mountain in the 70s, 80s and on: “The federal government does not have the right to tell a woman what to do with her body.” Where are the people who were shouting now? Many are now telling us what to do with our bod...
