OUR OPINION: ‘Trust democracy’ to ensure nickname’s permanence
Our view: If tribal members’ support for the Fighting Sioux name is enough to change tribal council votes, maybe it’s enough to keep those votes changed.

COLUMNIST LLOYD OMDAHL: Loss of Fighting Sioux nickname inevitable
At one time, I felt that the logo was oppressive and should be dropped as a moral matter. But the vote on the Spirit Lake reservation repudiated that view. Even so, considering the adversaries involved and the enduring nature of the controversy, loss of the logo became inevitable.

Leon Mallberg, Dickinson, N.D., letter: Term limits fill vital civic needs
In my opinion, deadwood occurs in North Dakota’s elected offices after eight years. Very few fresh ideas are offered after eight years. Instead, lawmakers at that stage just feel 'That’s the way it worked in the past.'

COLUMNIST LLOYD OMDAHL: All too true: The property tax is unfair
It would take a book as fat as War and Peace to enumerate the many evils of the property tax, but we live with it because we can’t live without it. That’s about the only reason.
