North Dakota’s potential as a crude oil and natural gas producer continues to grow. The U.S. Geological Survey recently released new, much higher estimates for the recoverable oil in the state.

Guy was a giant in N.D.

The legacy of former Gov. Bill Guy is stamped throughout North Dakota. It spans the state, east to west and north to south, with the Interstate highways that connect North Dakota to the rest of the nation.

N.D. looks to change

Standing on the leading edge of 2013, North Dakotans need to get reacquainted with their state. They need to because the state is undergoing heavy-duty change. That change will ramp up in the year ahead with complicated new challenges. And expectations are that we’ll see more growth, more jobs and more people.

N.D. prosperity looks rather flush

Gov. Jack Dalrymple’s proposed general fund budget for 2013-15 would spend $3.8 billion in North Dakota taxes on ongoing programs, an increase in spending of 9.4 percent per year.

Letter to the editor: Farming measure not needed in North Dakota

Measure 3 on the November ballot, the so-called right to farm amendment, attempts to provide a solution to a problem that does not exist. In fact, this “solution” may create more problems for farmers and ranchers and also provide more work for attorneys.
