		<description><![CDATA[A year ago we lamented here on the lack of progress on the proposed addition to the Traill County Courthouse.
Nothing was said or done in 2006 to move the project, estimated to cost $4.5 million at the time, from the architect’s drawing board into the hands of contractors via the voter.
We should note that sometime [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Newspapers aren’t allowed vacations, per se.
At least, that’s what we tell friends and family, anyway.
They feign understanding.
People on the street, regular readers, subscribers are a different cat; they expect their weekly paper to be there every week, much like they expect their daily newspaper to be there every day.
So, we oblige.   
Fifty-two times a year, [...]]]></description>

Hillsboro city commissioners are presently confronted with a pair of on-going problems — an aging water treatment plant that needs attention and the search for yet another police officer.

Hillsboro’s Plummer House has a reputation. Over this past weekend (five days to be exact), the 14th annual Christmas Extravaganza again served nearly 250 people from all parts of the Red River Valley — from Gardar to Fargo from Cooperstown to Minnesota Lake Country.
