Photos and story by Diana Zimmerman It's Spirit Week at Wahkiakum High School and it shows. Students have been having a good time dressing up to represent each day's theme.

On 'Merica Monday, the students celebrated things that were uniquely...
And so we have an election upon us with measures of utmost importance. Well, maybe. Two initiatives, I-594 and I-591, deal with gun control.

To The Eagle: Amid all the recent horrific domestic violence reports from the NFL, Verizon Wireless, one of the league’s biggest partners, has stepped up to reaffirm its stance on domestic violence: We must all band together to end domestic violence. The company’s CEO, Lowell McAdam, made it clear in a recent editorial that the real issue at hand is not the image of Verizon or the NFL, but “the scourge of domestic violence itself.” He noted that it’s highly likely that you know someone who has been abused, physically or emotionally, by someon...
The Columbia River Compact on Wednesday approved a new round of commercial fisheries for both tribal and non-Indian commercial netters on the mainstem Columbia that will likely bring to a close what has been a record-breaking harvest on a near-record return of chinook salmon and a revived coho salmon run. “In 2014, the tribal fishery has set a record for modern times for open days of commercial gill-net fishing and had record total catches,” according to an Oct. 8 staff report prepared by the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission and its...
