It argues higher valuations should lower mills, notes Labette County values up 7.6 percent, and cautions that budget decisions by officials, not appraisers, drive tax bills.
Guest editorials provide readers with a range of viewpoints while noting that expressed views do not necessarily reflect The Herald's official stance. The pieces present diverse arguments on current issues, inviting informed discussion among subscribers.
A televised interview features Monirella recounting her mock fairy tale pursuit of Prince Charming.

The tale ends with a cautionary moral about hidden evidence and the danger of sensational romance.
Kathleen Parker argues against the latest study praising early child care for babies. She notes methodological flaws, biased samples, and the persistent belief that a mother's love cannot be matched by caregivers. She urges readers to trust common sense and parental instincts over such research.
