Tomorrow's Tribune: 10-22

A peak at tomorrow's paper using quotes that didn't make the cut...

“Growers lose precious harvest time every day, introducing the specter of freezing temperatures coming again before the beets are out of the ground,” state representative Dave Bonner (R-Powell), writing to Park County commissioners about the crisis being faced by local sugar beet farmers. The commission took action, requesting emergency federal aid on county growers' behalf. Details on page 1.

“We just can’t make them go away,” Powell Police Chief Tim Feathers, explaining that officers can't stop door-to-door salesmen from knocking on your door with the city's Green River ordinance suspended. However, salesfolk don't have free reign in town, either. Check the story below the fold.

“I was quite beside myself watching my wife hemorrhaging,” Clark resident Scott Brazil, narrating the need for emergency services in his community. Brazil said with responders in Powell and Cody roughly 30 miles away, Clark-based services are essential; he said it was agonizing to wait for over a half-hour for an ambulance to arrive for his injured wife. On Tuesday, Brazil, along with a host of fellow Clark residents, urged the county to OK an expanded Clark Fire Hall.
