Dear Editor, Thank you, Mr. Buck, for walking tall. One day last week I had balloons on my lawn sign on my property (off city sidewalk) and I had to witness high school group coming home, one had concealed knife and stabbed my balloons, now where are his parents? This is enough. And we laid off police officers? Sincerely, Shirley R. Beauregard

Dear Editor, Faced with a choice between two friends and respected local leaders (whom I hope will always be friends and leaders who have my respect even after the election), I ask you to vote for Pat Paul for Oakdale mayor because 1 – While Mayor Jackson has done a solid and steady well-informed job of working to bring more business and jobs to the city, Paul will bring a more dynamic and larger outreach ...
