Soybean growers respond to Trump's tariffs on China
Monday, June 18, 2018 1:32 PM
“Nobody is a winner today,” ASA Vice President Davie Stephens, a Kentucky soybean grower, said. "In the midst of a down farm economy and down farm prices, this uncertainty has led to a drop of market prices. Adding additional export market uncertainty through an expected 25-percent retaliatory tariff on U.S. soybeans into China ensures that soy growers and the rural communities that depend on them will see the effects of this for years to come."

    Time, bipartisanship, good faith: The recipe for government

    Sunday, June 17, 2018 10:01 AM
    I’ve been calling for Congress to break the cycle of continuing resolutions and omnibus spending deals for quite some time. For too long, we’ve relied on these short-sighted solutions to fund the government rather than approving the 12 individual appropriations bills. I’m pleased to see that there is a renewed commitment to return to this regular process.

    We all make mistakes on whom to trust. When it becomes clear who is trustworthy, hold on. When it becomes clear who isn’t, run. When you know who your friends are, treat them with care.

  • Anchor On … Faithful men

    Saturday, June 16, 2018 3:25 AM
    Originating with the Father in Heaven, every Bible influence should be the interest of a Christian man. He can maintain them in his own life, even as he pours them completely into the cups of others. He is the faithful man!

    The evening of June 14 found me high atop the Hampton Inn (seventh floor) at the corner of U.S. 41 and I-70 in beautiful Terre Haute, Ind. My view was south, looking toward Honey Creek Mall, or what is left of it.

  • Highland County has been well-served by Shane Wilkin

    Thursday, June 14, 2018 9:59 PM
    For the past decade, I’ve seen Shane Wilkin on more Wednesday mornings than I care to – or probably can – remember. From my perspective – with absolutely no entangling alliances – Shane has been a hard-working county commissioner. As president of the Board of Commissioners since 2009, he has been forged in fiscal fire on many occasions.

  • State legislators 'missed the message of the voters' on medical marijuana laws

    Thursday, June 14, 2018 4:13 PM
    I am angry at our state legislature. Both the Ohio House of Representatives and the Ohio Senate voted to have medical marijuana legalized in Ohio, and Governor Kasich signed the bill. This was right after the voters turned down the proposal of legalizing marijuana. How did they miss the message of the voters? This seemed to have passed quickly and easily. We didn’t even get to vote on it.

  • Back to the Barreres

    Thursday, June 14, 2018 9:14 AM
    I had the pleasure of meeting Sally Barrere over the weekend. I’ve known of Sally for years, and we’re relatives. As you may or may not recall, I wrote a series on the Barrere family a while back, and meant to see it all the way through, but got swept away by the Temperance Movement that swept through Hillsboro in the 1870s.
