From The Editor

The election is coming, but not as fast as we thought at The Eagle. We have a policy of not printing campaign endorsement or similar letters in the last edition before an election, for a candidate who is attacked wouldn’t have a chance to respond. Thinking the election was coming sooner than it is, we told letter writers we wouldn’t run campaign letters this week. When one pointed out our error Wednesday morning, we decided to run the letters. As you can see, there are many, and because space is tight, we’ve cropped some of the extraneous material from them, doing our best to leave the writer’s main theme. Sincere apologies to any who might have blown their top over this.

And yes, next week is the final week before the election, so no campaign letters . . .
