Dems packing the Supreme Court?

Dear Editor, Packing the Supreme Court? Not so Fast! Recently, the Democrats have threatened to “pack the Supreme Court”. I say not so fast! I do not want to see this republic torn apart by the creation of a “super legislative branch” of unelected lawyers that do not answer to “we the people” of this country. “If anything would make the court look partisan, it would be that — one side saying, when we’re in power, we’re going to enlarge the number of judges, so we would have more people who would vote the way we want them to.” — The late Justice Ruth ...

Excellent questions beget honest answers

Dear Editor, Did you know that the Diocese of Steubenville has an “Official Diocesan Directory”? However, you won’t find the directory on the Diocese of Steubenville’s website, or in its newspaper, The Steubenville Register, or on its Facebook page. I found it on the Noble County Catholic Churches website by Googling (nccchurches 45th edition Official Diocesan Directory). There is information in the directory, historical and current, which would be of interest to the members of the diocese. Many dioceses around the country post their directory on their website including the ...

Thanks to all who helped make food drive a success

Dear Editor, I want to express sincere gratitude to all who helped make the Neighbors Helping Neighbors Annual Food Drive 2022 a success.

I am so thankful for all of you. A special thank-you as well to Riesbeck’s Elm Grove for once again running an in-store ...

Justice must be equal

Dear Editor, Well, America, especially all you Trump haters in the valley, Joe Biden was on national TV calling president Trump irresponsible for having documents at MarALargo, they have just discovered a second batch of documents that Biden had removed! First, he had no authority to declassify anything, second there is a legal procedure for removing documents from the secure area, meaning there is a paper trail showing legal removal. If this wasn’t followed, I believe it’s a felony. The weasel Merrick Garland has yet to explain why they haven’t raided all of Biden’s numerous ...

Seniors forced to move

Dear Editor, Imagine that! What county commissioner was butt hurt and scarred for life having to vacate the center islands for safety reasons has now along with the other commissioners shoved the seniors out of their congregate meal and recreation site they have called home since 1989. even dipping into the seniors’ money to renovate the site they now have to move into that is an open floor plan shared with other groups! How sanitary is that? Was the money “borrowed” before the forced move or after the forced move? Smell fish, anyone? Shirley Saffle Woodsfield

The New Ten Commandments

Dear Editor, I don’t know how many of your readers are aware but a few months ago several world religious leaders gathered in Egypt to write what they declared to be “the NEW ten commandments.” It had nothing to do with the salvation of men’s souls but concentrated on commandments to save the earth from changing weather patterns. As I stated in an earlier letter, I looked up how many verses show that God controls the weather and who will destroy the earth and create a new one. There are at least 47 verses of the weather being controlled by God and 71 verses in the Bible of ...
