The people of Aal Lutheran Church will celebrate its 140th anniversary on Aug. 11, the day it was founded just off the bank of the Goose River between Mayville and Hillsboro before the towns existed and roads or train tracks still were a two-day walk away.

A locked out American Crystal Sugar union worker is accused of lying about an incident involving a replacement worker at the Hillsboro plant.

The plant is part of a $28 million joint project between the city of Hillsboro, Mayville and Traill Rural Water System that also includes supply lines and a well field.

A pro-labor sign is posted outside the entrance of the American Crystal Sugar Co.

The daily protests by union workers outside the American Crystal Sugar plant in Moorhead, Minn., have become sporadic, and nine months into the company-imposed lockout, the only hint of the ongoing contract dispute Monday was a pro-union poster someone had nailed to a wooden stand.
