  • America Must Change Direction With the 2024 Election0

    Jim Webb

    This wasn’t how my column was to begin this week, but as I drove into work this past Friday, my Father and Chris Downs were on my mind. It was on October 25th — my dad left us 12 years ago, which is hard to believe in so many ways. A day doesn’t go by

  • Decision 2024 – Value Your Vote0

    Jim Webb

    Many folks have asked me why I haven’t written much about the upcoming election. My answer is simple. We’ve all heard enough about the November 5th date and suffer from negative voices across a chalkboard overload. I’ve been trying to live in positivity. That being said, my next two columns will be my views and

  • County Hall Corner: Trump’s Advance with JD Vance0

    Larry Stout

    When a potential presidential candidate chooses a vice president as their running mate, they have to select one that they know has a good record, is articulate, especially on difficult issues, and has leadership characteristics that would be needed just in case something tragic happens and the vice president has to take over. Arguably, this

  • County Hall Corner: The Amazing Man – PA Rep Joe Hamm0

    Larry Stout

    First impressions are sometimes very important. I met Joe Hamm for the first time in 2012 when he was borough manager for Jersey Shore and also a supervisor for Hepburn Township. At that time, I was a supervisor for Clinton Township and investigated the possibility of a regional police force for our area. I knew

  • Decision Time0

    Scott Lowery

    With just a few more weeks to go, the every-four-year, mind-numbing marathon known as the United States presidential campaign will (hopefully) reach its conclusion. American presidential election campaigns are much longer than in other countries. Many nations have laws on the books that strictly curtail how long campaigns can be conducted. But in the good

  • Phillies, Tigers and Mets, Oh My!0

    Jim Webb

    For those of you who might skip my column this week because I’m writing about sports, there’s a message in here for most everybody. Actually, there may be more than one when it comes to those who want to use athletic competition as a hot button to divide the American people. As I was watching

  • County Hall Corner: Key to Victory is the Keystone State0

    Larry Stout

    As I noted in this column two weeks ago, polls are about as reliable as palm readers. One thing that appears to be true, however, is that the Keystone State will be the key to whether Kamala Harris or Donald Trump becomes president of the United States. The popular vote is interesting, but it has

  • County Hall Corner: Don’t Cry Wolf0

    Larry Stout

    Nature knows more about ecology than government experts. Wolves are a classic example. There is evidence that wolves were part of the ecosystem in North America for well over 1,000 years. Yet, to us, wolves act like the mafia of the animal world. They were considered such a threat to the environment that they were

  • County Hall Corner: Polling is Eye Candy0

    Larry Stout

    The history of polling in national elections has a troubled history. Presidential polling started back in 1936 with the Literary Digest, a national magazine of the time, which sent out to their 10 million patrons a “straw” ballot asking them who they planned on voting for in the 1936 presidential election. Some two and half

  • November 5th Can’t Arrive Fast Enough0

    Jim Webb

    As the number of yard signs and political banners continues to grow, it’s time for me to set the record straight. This is something I often do prior to a November election. I can’t begin to tell you how happy I will be when those yard signs, banners, and all the political advertising are in

  • County Hall Corner: Conspiracy or Incompetence at Butler, PA?0

    Larry Stout

    Given that the Kennedy assassination has been deeply debated and discussed for 61 years now, we should not expect that after just seven weeks, we would know how and why on July 13th, at an open-air campaign rally near Butler, Pennsylvania, a 20-year young man named Thomas Matthew Crooks attempted to assassinate Republican candidate for

  • County Hall Corner: Great Leap Backwards0

    Larry Stout

    The exciting “Vibe Campaign” of Vice President Kamala Harris was best outed by the popular author and columnist Mark Steyn when he identified it as the “Vibe as Veil Campaign” because it did not seem to have anything behind it. All of her speeches centered around the dangerous, no-good, very bad former President Donald Trump.

  • A Tip of the Cap as the World Series Ends and Football Season Begins0

    Jim Webb

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year to be a sports fan living here in the West Branch Valley. The long list of events highlighted by the 77th playing of the Little League World Series has been amazing. I don’t even know where to begin, other than I would be remiss if I didn’t
