Letters to the editor for April 26, 2013
 

Shocking the grass into submission

Today most people live in big houses with small yards. Growing up, I lived in a small house with a 400-acre yard.

By noon last Wednesday, the nation was reeling with confusion and fear. At the Wallowa County Rotary Club meeting that day, President John McColgan said, “Let’s hope for a better week.”

 

Good will prevail

Monday’s Patriot Day bombing at the Boston Marathon shook nerves throughout the country, including those of us 3,000 miles away in Northeast Oregon.

The cowardly act, whether it was perpetrated by terrorists or just a sole madman, was despicable. At last report, three people had died and at least 150 were injured. 

 

Postal debt remains concern

Come rain, sleet, snow or hail, nasty dogs and Saturdays, the Postal Service delivers. And now, thanks to Congress, there’s no worry about interrupting the old routines of picking up bills on Saturdays. There’s also no worry about making changes anytime soon, no matter how much dollars and sense it makes.
