MATTERS AT HAND: Laws of politics work in U.S. Senate campaign
Politics in North Dakota operate according to a few immutable laws. These are unwritten, of course, but they can be seen in political campaigns, behavior in office and election abstracts. There are only a few of them, hardly a handful in fact. In this campaign, each of the candidates for the U.S. Senate has broken some of the laws, and this contributes to the close contest that was highlighted in a Forum Company poll printed last week.

New Minnewaukan school working toward projected November completion
Jean Callahan strolls through the still unfinished Minnewaukan Public School, past bare block walls, dangling ductwork and exposed electrical conduit. The school includes three wings, one for primary (pre-kindergarten to early elementary), one for upper elementary classes, and one for the high school, classrooms in each wing connected by its own commons area. The new $7 million building will replace an aging, overcrowded school on the east side of Minnewaukan, a facility that’s been threatened for several years by the flooding Devils Lake, referred to by some in this community as the “Beast to the East.”
