Energy policies
In an interview with the Missoulian last week, State Representative Pat Ingraham let slip that she wants us to pay higher energy bills. She stated that she supports further deregulation of energy companies. The lessons of the past are clearly lost on Mrs. Ingraham — when the state legislature deregulated energy in the late 1990s, Montana went from having some of the cheapest energy to having some of the most expensive. Further deregulation of these big companies will only result in higher prices.

We have enjoyed, promoted and defended our human rights, freedoms, individualism and, especially, our private property. This 4th of July is particularly noteworthy, because it is the 240th year since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and the 800th year since signing the English Magna Carta.

'Drive 4 Ur Community' to benefit Cancer Network of Sanders County
While you are out having fun at the Sanders County Garage Sale-ing, make a quick stop at Rehbein Ford in Plains on June 24. This is your opportunity to test drive a brand new Ford vehicle and donate to Cancer Network of Sanders County at the same time. Want to know how easy and fun it is to donate that $20? Just show up at Rehbein Ford sometime between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., fill in a short survey and take a new Ford car or truck for a test drive. Only one person per address qualifies and you must possess a current driver’s license. Ford Motor Company will send us $20/person for your efforts. They offer up to $6,000 for this event, so we could really use 300 people to do the test drive! Being able to host this event is kind of a big thing, Ford Motor Company does not back this event for just any Ford dealership. Rehbein Ford had to apply for this event months ago. Our past success and enthusiastic participation in the community is one reason why we are able to make this an annual event.
