Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
Twenty plus years ago I came to Long Prairie and our family was started. Times were good. Work was busy, extra time was spent with outdoor activities along with meeting friends at the local watering holes……I can’t place my finger on the exact date it all changed. It could have...
To the Editor:
I read the article about the actions of the Long Prairie-Grey Eagle School Board in the August 28, 2024 issue of the Long Prairie Leader. Who was calling the school board’s attorney and racked up charges of more than $120,000. And one comment: Could that money have been better used...
To the Editor:
I decided to write this letter to the Leader for several reasons. Back in May of this year, I read the following quoted letter to the Long Prairie School Board. I chose not to publish in hopes that the School Board would do the right thing for the students. My hopes came crashing...

Unless you have been living under a rock these past several months, here’s a memory refresher: Basically, the officials of the City Of Long Prairie, to include the Planning and Zoning Committee as well as the City Council, and City Administrator have approved the gutting out and...
To the Editor:
Just read the front section of what I call “The Red Star tribune” dated 5/31/2024. Full disclosure, I didn’t buy or subscribe to this rag. I find there’s much more objective and factual reporting and less propaganda and bias in the “National Enquirer” or any number of the Hollywood...
To the Editor:
Donald Trump has been found unanimously, guilty of 34 felonies by a jury of his peers.
I believe there needs to be a push back on some regrettably believed lies, distortions of fact, law, history and procedure being presented by various pro-Trump opinion outlets in the electronic...
To the Editor:
It is my opinion that a LID(Lake Improvement District) should not be formed on Lake Osakis. The endorsement by the DNR citing their recommendations is what made me come to this conclusion. Every item on their list shows a redundancy that other agencies are already doing. There are...
