  • North Dakota Outdoors: General game and other license reminders

    Doug Leier, N.D. Game and Fish Department|Sep 10, 2018

    The North Dakota legislature established the general game license in 1967, and ever since then deer hunters have needed one, in addition to a deer tag, before they could legally hunt deer with rifle or bow. Eventually, the general game license was combined with the habitat stamp, so today it's called the general game and habitat license, and you need one to hunt any game species, except furbearers, in North Dakota. The only exception is for landowners hunting only on their own land. The same als...

  • Letter to the Editor: Kurtz response to Sept. President's Point

    Sep 10, 2018

    In The President’s Point in last week’s “Transcript,” Calvin Packard professes to study facts before reaching conclusions. However, he substitutes “perception” for “fact” and concludes one can never know the truth (facts) because they are nothing but perception. He uses the phrase “Known only to God and to,” in two instances, in one McCain, and in the other, Trump. If one believes this, he could never accept a jury verdict. After all, is not who is guilty known only to God and the accused? Packard makes unsubstantiated allegations. The first, M...
