    Dakota Collector A Research Journal of North and South Dakota Postal History Published by the Dakota Postal History Society Vol XXIII Number II April 2006 Fort Rice, Dak.. With “Steamer Waverly MO. Packet” Handstamp EDITORIAL COMMENTS: FROM THE PRESIDENT This issue contains an article I have envisioned for many years, worked on for about six months (on and off), and finally completed in the past weeks….on the subject of the steamboat postal history of Dakota Territory. I would like to thank Mike Ellingson for his support in editing the article and writing most of the Red River sec- tion. Floyd Risvold is also to be recognized for his contribution of a significant number of copies of covers used throughout the article. I hope you all enjoy it! I would also like to direct our membership to an advertisement in this issue from the Western Cover Society. The WCS has scanned in all 55 years of their publication Western Express in text searchable PDF format and put them all onto one DVD. The power of this format is incredible. One can easily search on any topic, just as you would do electronically on the internet (without a million hits, though). Searching on “Dakota”, for exam- ple, yields information on the expresses that operated in/out of Dakota, as well as several articles through the years on different facets of Dakota postal history. I highly recommend the DVD! Best of collecting! Ken Stach 15 N. Morning Cloud Circle The Woodlands, TX 77381 [email protected] FROM THE SECRETARY In this issue we have a fine article by Ken Stach with input from Mike Ellingson on “The Steamboat Postal History of Dakota Territory”.

The CLI is an evaluated inventory of all landscapes having historical significance that are listed on or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, or are otherwise managed as cultural resources through a public planning process and in which the NPS has or plans to acquire any legal interest. The CLI identifies and documents each landscape’s location, size, physical development, condition, landscape characteristics, character-defining features, as well as other valuable information useful to park management. Cultural landscapes become approved CLIs when concurrence with the findings is obtained from the park superintendent and all required data fields are entered into a national database. In addition, for landscapes that are not currently listed on the National Register and/or do not have adequate documentation, concurrence is required from the State Historic Preservation Officer or the Keeper of the National Register.

  • THE CHRIST CHURCH CONNECTION the Newspaper of the Mother Church of the Dakotas
    July THE CHRIST CHURCH CONNECTION The Newspaper of the Mother Church of the Dakotas July & August 2021 NEWS FROM PASTOR KWEN SANDERSON The “Good News”(?) of Sin- Romans 3:23- “For all have sinned, and fallen short of the glory of God.” When you translate our language of “Sin”, it is another way of saying, “I am an imperfect human being.” Which gives me permission, that when I have messed up, and made mistakes, their spiritual message is, “Welcome to the Human Race.” When I ministered at the Mike Durfee State Prison in Springfield, the inmates discovered that Romans 3:23 meant that their specific sin, even though it landed them in prison, was a reminder that they were part of the sin of the Human Race. As a colleague liked to remind people, “We are all equal, at the foot of the cross.” In the Friday, June 18, devotion of our “Forward Day by Day” devotional, the author, Keith Gogan, made the insightful observation. “God will act; God will make things better. However, God will not act without us. We humans are both the problem and the solution.” Right from the beginning, with Adam and Eve, how was God going to care for his created world? By Adam and Eve. How did sin enter the world? By Adam and Eve. Yet, It is a continuing theme that runs through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation; God has committed himself to work through people, even though people are the ones who create the problems. In the church, we have a high-sounding doctrine called the Incarnation.
