Al Gore's official campaign for president has just begun. But he's already upholding a pledge to organized labor that has business groups fuming. Gore made his promise when House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt, D-Mo. - a union favorite - was considering a White House run. In February 1997, Gore told the AFL-CIO Executive Council that ''the Clinton administration will seek to bar companies with poor labor records from receiving government contracts.'' If a company wants to do business with the federal government, Gore said, it has to ''respect civil, human and union rights.'' Fearing that this promise could become ...

Listen and learn, America. Cup your ear to the wind and hear the blood-chilling wail of the siren whistle as it drifts down across your border. If just one of you reads this letter and pauses, even for a moment, to think about what unchecked government can do, then it has been worth the writing.

Unlike you, I read that dozens of my fellow citizens were arrested for carrying ...

Oregon Wants NRA Program in Schools By TERENCE B. FOLEY Associated Press Writer PORTLAND, Ore. -- When Eddie Eagle spies children stumbling onto a handgun in an attic, the cartoon hero swoops down, raises his wing and squawks: ``STOP! Don't touch!
