  At least one legislator is paying attention to voters

  I’d like to thank Sen. Tom Saviello, R-Wilton, for responding quickly to my letters to the editor and for the concern he has about all the matters that I have addressed. His actions have amended my negative feelings about some of our politicians. Maybe Saviello should be the one running for president, because I am […]

  Vehicles are not toys, but powerful machines

  I just read another article about another young adult dying in a car accident. When will these young adults, whether it be a teenager or a 20-something, realize that a vehicle is a very powerful machine and that they are to be taken seriously, not thought of as a toy? Kathy Allen Waterville

  Our bankrupt country should cut all foreign aid

  Amazing, isn’t it, that the 80-plus millionaires in Washington, D.C., have no interest in bailing out Social Security, Medicare or the postal service? Could it be that none of these millionaires has any stocks and revenues from these programs like they have in oil, banks, auto and all the other companies that they bailed out? […]

  Bible-believing Christians must make voices heard

  Can it be that we are faced with another presidential primary? Oh, woe is me! A well-known evangelical leader (and author) Francis Schaeffer has asked, “Where has the faith community (evangelical, etc.) been for the last 40 years?” I don’t think they have been at the voting booth because secular forces in the United States […]

  Stranger stayed with victim of accident until help came

  I would like to express my appreciation to the people who stopped and assisted my mother after her automobile accident on Dec. 2 on U.S. Route 201A. It is wonderful to know there are still people willing to help a stranger in a time of need. It was so comforting for me to know that […]

Madison recently held a referendum to ask voters to bond for the development of a natural gas pipeline from Richmond to Madison. Our board of selectmen was in favor of the project. Before the vote, Kennebec Valley Gas Co. paid […]

  A recent article indicated that the Farmingdale Board of Selectmen is considering a revision of the town’s firearms ordinance that would further restrict the use of muzzle-loading firearms east of the Maine Turnpike. The change was triggered by a complaint by a Russell Street resident “that someone has been firing a black-powdered weapon toward his […]
