Preliminary hearing for murder By Richard Volesky Editor/Reporter BELFIELD - A preliminary hearing for Dirk Huber, 41, accused of murdering Nikki Radcbaugh, 39, in her apartment on Aug. 31, is scheduled for 2:30 p.m., Oct. 31, at ~he Stark County Courthouse at which time at judge may decide if the case will move tk~l"w'ard. At preliminary hearings, a judge decides if there is probable cause that a crime was committed, and if a defendant should be bound over for trial. A pickup truck registered to Huber, parked on the street in front of his Belfield residence, was van- dalized sometime after the alleged murder. The vehicle's windshield was broken. The vehicle may also have been scratched, but it isn't clear if that damage occurred before or after Huber's arrest. The damage occurred between Sept. 3 and Sept. 5, said Joe Schmidt, Belfield police chief. No one in the neighborhood reported the damage; it was noticed by the police during a patrol. Huber's residence is reportedly occupied by one of his cousins, and a few oilfield workers who are rent- ing rooms in the home. Bail for Huber was set at $1 mil- lion at a hearing on Sept. 6.

Survey hows good bighorn numbers While three consecutive severe winters played a significant role in reducing many of the state's west- ern big game populations, overall bighorn sheep numbers are strong, according to Brett Wiedmann, big game biologist for the North Dakota Game and Fish Department in Dickinson. A July-August survey in western North Dakota showed 290 bighorn ~-heep, unchanged from last year and just 26 below 2008's record ,,ummer survey. "After recording Jramatic declines in mule deer and pronghorn numbers, we were pleas- antly surprised to see that our bighorns have remained stable," Wiedmann said. Bighorn sheep can tolerate frigid temperatures, but deep snows can ¢-ause problems because of their short legs, Wiedmann said. "Low A public notice is information informing citizens of government activities that may affect the citizens' everyday lives. Public notices have been printed in local newspapers, the trusted sources for community information. for more than 200 years. adult mortality last winter despite very deep snow conditions demon- strates just how hardy bighorns are," he said. Survey results revealed 85 rams. 158 ewes and 47 lambs 233 in the northern Badlands (an increase of two from last year) and 57 in the southern badlands (down just one). "'Bighorns are doing very well in the northern badlands, and. following three years of declines, have stabi- lized in the south." Wiedmann said. while noting that 43 lambs were observed in the north, but only four in the south. Each summer. Game and Fish Department biologists count and classify all bighorns, a process that takes nearly six weeks to complete as biologists locate each bighorn herd in the badlands by tracking radio-marked animals from an air- plane, and then hike into each band in order to record population demo- graphics using a spotting scope and binoculars. Biologists then com- plete the annual survey by recount- ing lambs in March to determine lamb recruitment. North Dakota's bighorn sheep hunting season opens Oct. 21 and continues through Nov. 3. Six licenses were issued. NOTE: Due to issues at our printing plant, today's editions are in black and white only.

A large crowd gathered at the Golva School lunchroom on Tuesday to attend a meeting con- cerning the closing of the Golva Post Office in the near future. Several questions that were asked, remained unanswered. With the influx of people involved with the oil boom moving to the area. and the impact on the Golva businesses and residents of the area, obviously, the citizens of Golva are concerned about this move by the postal department at this particular time. Shirley Schulte visited her aunt Cecelia Watembach in Wibanx on Wednesday while Donna Sygulla was getting her hair done at the Lariat Hair Salon. The ladies enjoyed lunch out before returning to Golva. On Thursday. Carl and Donna Granat visited her mother, Frieda Feldman at the Wibaux County Nursing Home.

Your local newspaper is here for the long run. Some pundits and so- called experts are already writing the obituary for the newspaper industry. We say: Not so fast. Newspapers march on not only as news leaders and innovators, but as stalwart businesses in communities they serve, contributing to the well-being of Main Street and North Dakota. • Newspapers remain a dominant media source in North Dakota. Newspapers in this state have an estimated readership of more than 500,000, plus a growing on-line audience. 9 out of 10 North Dakotans read their local newspaper. Nationwide, more than 104 million adults read a newspaper every day, except on on Sunday when readership grows to 115 million. That's more people than watch the Super Bowl (94 million), American Idol (23 million), or the evening news (65 million). • The biggest reason newspapers are read is because you rely on your newspaper to know what's happening in your community. Obituaries, weddings, high school sports, city hall, babies, arrests, yard sales, church meetings, little league baseball, community events, engagements, town business, government public notices, even the ads ... the list goes on and on. Your newspaper connects you with your community. No other medium provides what newspapers provide. (Ever see obituaries on TV?) • It's a myth that the Internet and other sources will provide news if North Dakota newspapers aren't here to do the job. The reality is that newspapers make a larger investment in newsgathering than any other mediu.m. In fact, most of the news you get from other media originated with reporting done by newspapers. Sometimes broadcasters read the news directly from the newspaper! This is a time when newspapersare transforming. The industry is adapting and moving forward. We look forward to the future! We look forward to providing news, information and advertising that help connect and build the communities we serve. .... ~i~
