Republican party faithful, some 200 strong, gave 6-term U.S. Congressman Todd Akin a warm reception Saturday evening during a barbecue hosted by the Gasconade County Republican Central Committee at Owensville’s Memorial Park.

Those attending the Sept. 22 event heard his firm pledge to stay in the race for the U.S. Senate against incumbent Democrat Claire McCaskill despite continued party opposition at the national level and promises to withhold funding from his campaign. Tuesday was the deadline for a candidate to quit the race to allow for a replacement to be named before ballots are printed.

Akin, winner of the Missouri Repub-lican primary for U.S. Senate, was the featured speaker at the event held on the first day of autumn. U.S. Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer (9th District), Tom Hurst, Republican candidate for the newly created 62nd House District out of Meta, Dave Schatz, the Sullivan Republican for the 61st House District who has served the area as the 111th District representative, and State Sen. Mike Kehoe, currently of the 6th District, also addressed participants at the $10 a plate event.

Akin’s appearance came a day after his participation in a U.S. senatorial candidates’ debate held in Columbia. Boy Scout Troop 22 in Owensville posted the nation’s colors during an opening ceremony.

Despite being pressured by national Republican party leaders to end his cam-paign following an Aug. 19 television interview which aired his comments about how women who do not become pregnant from “legitimate rape,” Akin pledged to continue his campaign against incumbent U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill, a Democrat from Kansas City.

He made it official on Tuesday afternoon that he would not be dropping out in a press conference held in St. Louis while announc-ing plans for his “Common Sense Tour” which continues through Friday. He will be in Rolla this evening for two scheduled events and in the Capitol Rotunda from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. on Thursday.

Those attending the barbecue Saturday at the park heard his explanation for staying in the race despite the lack of support finan-cially from national Republican sources.

“What I try to do, because I’m the engineer, I’m not very good at politics, is to just try and say what’s the right thing to do,” Akin told those attending the event in Owensville. “And after having given that some thought, my sense was we just had an election. A whole bunch of us ran. A lot of million dollars were spent. And the people of Missouri made a decision. And

my thought is, is it right when everybody’s made a vote to allow some people in Wash-ington D.C. to pick whoever their favorite is instead? And I thought that wasn’t the right thing to do. I believe that some of you may have vote for me. And I believe you sent me to do a job, that’s replace Claire McCaskill, and that’s something needs (sic) being done.”

In the weeks since his gaffe about “le-gitimate rape,” Akin said it’s been “full speed ahead,” on the campaign. “That’s what we’re doing.”

His unintended foray into the public limelight has brought a newfound realiza-tion that people do recognized him more frequently, he noted.

“I can report to you today how things are going. And, it’s been very exciting. It’s been a little of a unique experience for me and that is, no matter where I go, people start to recognize you,” Akin said.

Akin received a big laugh when he told a story about meeting three women in “one of those (motel) elevators,” including a staff cleaning lady.

“One of them says, they’re elbowing each other,” Akin recalled, “you’re the one that said something wrong.”

Akin said he introduced himself to them. Akin said one of the women said, “well

we’re supporting you, we understood that you said you’re sorry and we want you to go fight, and win, and we don’t want any of those party bosses telling us what to do.”

The partisan crowd of nearly 200 gave him a hearty round of applause. County Republican party officials reported 175 paid for a meal at the event.

He pointed out his biography as an IBM engineer and family’s military service — past and present — including his as an Army officer, his father’s service in WWII under General George Patton, and three sons who went through the Naval academy and ended up in the Marines. One is currently deployed to the Mediterranean.

Two of his six children joined him at the event. His wife of 37 years, Lulli, did not attend.

“As you can imagine, I’m very, very thankful to be American, thankful my kids got the chance to grow up (here),” he added before introducing a son and daughter.

He received another good round of laughter when he reported on his debate Friday with McCaskill at the Missouri Press Association’s forum in Columbia (see State Side on page 12 for coverage and photographs).

“Now in terms of this race against Claire McCaskill, we had our first debate yester-day and I thought she loved me up to this point,” he said. “But it didn’t seem like it yesterday in the debate. So if any of just

you want too know, kind of what’s going on in this race, because she’s saying, she’s telling everybody she’s a moderate, and I’m scratching my head. You know it seems to be kind of a gutsy thing to tell everyone you are a moderate when you vote 98 percent of the time with Barrack Obama. Somehow that didn’t seem to square with me. But she also said the Senate passed a budget which also hasn’t happened so there’s all sorts of things going on that you have to keep your eye on.”

Gasconade County voters had favored Akin’s opponent, former State Sen. Sarah Steelman in the August primary as the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate. Steelman collected 1,134 votes in the county to 975 for Akin. John G. Brunner received 859 votes in the county in a race which included eight contestants. Mc-Caskill was unopposed on the Democratic ticket and received 315 votes in the heavily

Republican Gasconade County.Akin, as well as any other candidate, had

until Sept. 25 to remove his name from the ballot by court order, which was only three days after military ballots were sent out.

Republicans began to distance them-selves from Akin after his controversial comments on rape and abortion, with some calling for Akin to drop out of the race.

This pressure came from top Repub-licans, such as presidential hopeful Mitt Romney, as well as conservative groups, such as Crossroads GPS and the National Republican Senatorial Campaign, which have pulled advertising support in Mis-souri for Akin.

Despite widespread pressure from the national party, Akin has received some Republican support from Mike Huckabee and, most recently, former presidential candidate Newt Gingrich.

Gingrich was in the St. Louis area on

Monday to help raise money for Akin at a $500 a plate dinner.

“Newt understands that Missouri — or should I say that the Republicans — really don’t have a plan to win the majority unless they can actually win Missouri,” Akin cam-paign adviser Rick Tyler said. Tyler served as Gingrich’s press secretary for 13 years.

Akin and his staff had repeatedly said that he would not withdraw from the race .

“Todd is not going to drop out, he’s never going to drop out, it’s not going to happen,” Tyler said late last week. “The deadline is meaningless to us because Todd has always intended to stay in the race.”

When the Civil War touched Gasconade CountyBy Jim Featherston, 1923-2012

Price arrives in Gasconade County on Oct. 3, after

shooting prisonersOn the night of Oct. 2, 1864,

the main body of General Ster-ling Price’s Confederate Army camped near southern sympa-thizers in Franklin County. The prosperous families had been slave holders, and looked upon Price as a liberator. Early on the morning of Oct. 3, the army unloaded prisoners taken along the route, including those taken during action in the town of Pilot Knob prior to the attack on Fort Davidson.

The executionsAmong the prisoners was

Major James Wilson, who was looked on as a hero by the Union Army, and eight men in his command. All had been taken prisoners near Pilot Knob.

Major Wilson was not consid-ered a hero by the people in Rip-ley County. He stood charged for

a massacre of civilians, including women, in an engagement 17 miles southwest of Doniphan.

On Christmas Day, 1863, Confederate soldiers in Colonel Timothy Reeves’ regiment, had gathered with kin, including civilians of both sexes. Major James Wilson surrounded them, slipped up close and achieved complete surprise. It was a mas-sacre, with no quarter given.

Many of Reeves’ men were killed as well as civilian guests. Many of the dead were brought to Doniphan and buried in the old cemetery south of the Court-house. The place of Wilson’s massacre is still called “Battle Hollow.” (1)

Colonel Timothy Reeves, a Doniphan Baptist Minister, turned soldier, commanded a regiment in Fagan’s Division, and was camped with Price on the night of Oct. 2.

The Union account of the happenings of the morning of

Oct. 3, told by a Union prisoner who was paroled later in the day:

“Most of the 400 prisoners, more or less, were going to be paroled, but Colonel Timothy Reeves of the 145th Missouri Cavalry, McCray’s Brigade of Fagan’s Division, was not about to see Major Wilson and his men go free. ‘Reeve’s Band’ had many men killed by Wilson and his men…Wil son had been the toughest obstructing force in the way before Fort Davidson …Colonel Reeves…rode up to the prisoners and ordered them to fall into line in the road, facing the two rebel officers …every soldier who gave his command as being the 3rd Cavalry, was ordered to step two paces to the front…three men of the 3rd re-mained in line, suspecting those who stepped forward would be executed instead of being paroled…one man thinking that members of the 3rd were being selected for the first squad to be

paroled…stepped to the front, condemned to death. Major Wil-son and the six men who stepped forward were marched away in charge of the shooting squad, right in the presence of General Price and his staff…taken over a hill through an old abandoned field, and the volley fired which killed them.” (2)

The Confederate account of Wilson and his execution

differsHistorian Jerry Ponder, in his

book, Major General John S. Marmaduke, CSA, quotes Colo-nel T. J. Oliphant as published by Dr. Charles Edward Nash:

“When captured, Major Wilson and other captives were taken to the rear and held under guard. When Price moved north in pursuit of General Ewing (after the battle of Pilot Knob), some of the captives were paroled. However, most, and all of those held by General Fagan’s Division, were taken along. Included were Major Wilson and Captain Dinger.

“On Oct. 3, 1864, some 400 prisoners remained who had not been paroled. All were turned over to General Jo Shelby, serv-ing as Field Officer of the Day. Shelby, fresh from the arson and murder at Doniphan, questioned each of the prisoners, detained those from the 3rd MSM Cav-alry Regiment and paroled the others, including one soldier who lied about his unit to escape punishment. General Shelby then held military court by question-ing the men of the 3rd Cavalry as to who was present at Doniphan or at the 1863 Wilson Massacre in Ripley County. Those who swore non-attendance were set free by parole. Wilson and six enlisted men were found guilty and sentenced by General

Shelby to death by firing squad. Although General Price did approve the sentence, it was not necessary.

“General Shelby had both the rank and the position to hold a general court martial. All was entirely above board and within the provision of civilized warfare of that time.

“Those sentenced to death were turned over to Colonel Timothy Reeves, commander of the 15th Missouri Cavalry Regi-ment. Many of Colonel Reeves’ men had lost wives, children, parents and friends to the Wilson murders, or by his orders for murder to be committed. Thus, in a small valley, on the Green street Farm in Franklin County, the deserved punishment was served. The men were executed as ordered. To cover their tracks, the Northern sources described the deaths as ‘murder’ or ‘brutal murder.’

“Locals found the bodies three weeks later and shipped them to St. Louis where they be-came part of a propaganda game for the Union. In retaliation, six Confederate prisoners were selected at random; three had served with General Shelby and three were from Arkansas units. They were marched through the streets of St. Louis and shot in public demonstration. They were not tried. No charges were made against any of the men and no death sentence announced; the act was murder. Union General Rosecrans ordered the murders, by written order, which included the wording “random selection.” By order, also, was a major to be murdered, but none was avail-able and no officer was ever shot.

ForWardThe Trans Mississippi Confederate Commander, General E.K. Smith, ordered an invasion of

Missouri to begin Sept. 26, 1864. The mission of the army was to proceed rapidly from its staging area near Pocahontas, Arkansas, up the two all-weather roads through Ripley County, to St. Louis. The army was to liberate the arsenal at St. Louis and thus secure weapons and materials needed to capture St. Louis and occupy the State of Missouri. Missouri would be governed by citizens sympathetic to the Confederacy; furthermore, the state would then furnish needed raw materials and manufactured goods to the Trans Mississippi Armies.

General Sterling Price, who had once been governor of Missouri, was selected to command the invading cavalry army, even though he didn't understand cavalry tactics. His army was comprised of three cavalry divisions, commanded by Generals Fagan, Shelby and Marmaduke. Both Shelby and Marmaduke were famed cavalry leaders.

In spite of objections by Shelby and Marmaduke, Price decided to capture Fort Davidson at Pilot Knob on Sept. 27, 1864. His army was badly mauled in the effort, with light losses for the Union. After the battle of Pilot Knob, Price was too weak to attempt an attack on St. Louis. Instead, he swung west, with a Confederate version of Sherman's march through Georgia, feeding his army and horses from the stores of hapless farmers along his march. His army camped the night of Oct. 2, 1864, in Franklin County. On Oct. 3, his main force camped near the junction of Old State Road and Bouef Creek, several miles north of Rosebud, on the line between Franklin and Gasconade counties.

Spence visits Owensville, thanks Farm Bureau for supportBY DAVE MARNERManaging Editor

Republican candidate for governor Dave Spence admitted Tuesday in a visit to the Gasconade County Farm Bureau office in Owensville that he may have looked a little grumpy in his debate Friday against Gov. Jay Nixon.

“I had was in game mode,” said Spence, 54, of St. Louis, addressing a crowd of about 45 people. “(My) people said I didn’t smile enough.”

Then he added, “I clobbered the guy. It was great.”

By all appearances, Nixon generally avoided any direct confrontation with Spence during the debate. Spence would say later that Nixon had played “rope-a-dope” the entire debate, an obvious reference to a boxer trying to avoid direct contact with an opponent.

Spence thanked members of the county and state Farm Bureau agencies for their FARM-PAC support. “I’m so appreciative of the Farm Bureau endorsement because I’m not a farmer and that’s the truth.”

He also noted he had received endorse-ments from the Missouri Chamber of Commerce and the group representing corrections officers.

He was in a joking mood to open his visit which was not announced until late Monday morning. “You must be Jimmy Buffet,” said Spence as he greeted John Hoffman who was wearing a Hawaiian shirt. When he met Kurt Keller, principal at Owensville High School, Spence joked that he had just driven by the school and saw all the students running around outside on the front lawn.

He does not favor federal eduction policies like No Child Left Behind. “We tend to concentrate on the 3 to 4 percent of schools that don’t function very well,” he said of the mostly urban districts which have lost accreditation. He did not think

DAVE SPENCE points toward Gov. Jay nixon during their debate Friday morning at the Missouri Press Association convention. “Maybe he’s the problem,” said spence taking a shot at nixon’s 20-plus years as an elected official in Missouri. SPENCE VISITED the Gasconade County Farm Bureau office in owensville on tuesday afternoon. Answering a question about how he was being treated by the media, spence turned and commented, “Usually the rural papers have been very fair to us.” he noted there appeared to be a “more liberal bias” among the larger metropolitan newspapers and added, “there’s a reason they’re getting thinner and they are getting thinner.”

making up the $300 million shortfall in K-12 education funding would “fix the schools that are broken.” He cited the economic decline for the loss in tax rev-enues for education. “So, we’re really in a squeeze here. I’m not sure spending 300 million more dollars fixes the schools that are broken. I think it’s called leadership. I’ve been down there. I’ve seen it. We tend to reward bad behavior.”

He told the audience he wanted to “work with people like Cathy Lloyd” whose family business, Frene Valley Healthcare South, recently received the Owensville Chamber of Commerce recognition as Star Business of the Month for September. “Or with the city and the mayor,” he added pointing to Mayor Dixon Somerville who he had met earlier.

“I represent fresh eyes, fresh energy,”said Spence.

He said his approach to governing would be the same as his approach to run-ning his own business which grew from 15 employees and $350,000 in annual sales in 1985 to 860 employees and $200 mil-lion in revenue when he recently stepped aside as its president. He said he brings “passion, vision, integrity and two words that we don’t give enough appreciation to — hard work” in his effort to become the “next great governor” of Missouri.

Hometown Boy by Duane Dailey

After Joplin tornado, newspaper never missed an edition

There are advantages to living in a house surrounded by woods. It’s peace-ful and quiet, isolated from the view of neighbors who might someday be overwhelmed by morbid curiosity, far enough from the road to be hidden from travelers thereon, and remote enough to provide a constant parade of indigenous wildlife.

There are disadvantages to living in a house surrounded by woods. There are tons of leaves, for one thing. The leaf fall around here starts in the fall, naturally, and continues off and on throughout the winter until early spring when new leaves push off the last of the reluctant hangers on. These leaves must be removed hourly from sidewalks and patios; every other hour from rain gutters on the house; and twice daily from the yard.

I do not do those things so mountain-ous piles of leaves from oak and hickory trees, the predominant species surround-ing this house, accumulate to the point where removal calls for a D8 dozer and five or six over-the-road open top trailers.

Another disadvantage of living in a house surrounded by woods is that trees sometimes fall over while others may drop huge limbs here and there. These things occur on a whim and trees feel no obligation to give notice they are going to lay down or drop a one-ton limb. The only warning, usually too late, is a loud cracking sound followed by a loud crash-ing sound. You may not always hear the loud crashing sound.

Sometimes these phenomena are caused by old age or a debilitating tree illness for which there is no cure. Other times they are the result of weather: high winds, ice or too much wet, heavy snow. Of course tornadoes also wreak havoc

on trees but that is to be expected. It’s the trees that have withstood high winds, ice or too much snow for 100 years or more but suddenly decide they are tired of fighting and have had enough that create problems for homeowners. Oc-casionally when they give up like that they fall on houses.

Luckily that has not been a problem for this little house in the big woods (apologies to Laura Ingalls Wilder for appropriating the title from one of her “Little House…” books). We reluctantly had two at-risk trees, one on either side of the house, removed a few years ago. If the one on the northwest side of the house had been left there, I fear it would have become part of the house after a storm swept through late on the afternoon of Sept. 7.

We were in a safe haven in downtown Owensville when the storm hit and while mighty winds accompanied the sheets of rain that blasted across the intersection of First Street and Sears Avenue, the winds apparently were much stronger in the south end of the county. Driving home in the dusk after the storm passed we navigated around several tree limbs that had fallen on the road. Turning into the driveway we saw a large tree down on the left. Farther down the drive, another large tree was in the prone position off on the right. Both had taken other trees to the ground with them. But there were no trees, or even big limbs, on the house or sheds.

All around the house, however, the yard was covered with leaves and limbs of varying sizes, none that really fell into the “big” category. Still, what was in the yard filled two utility trailers and ended up as a huge brush pile to be burned some-

time this winter, preferably when there is snow on the ground or conditions are suitable for burning brush piles without alarming neighbors or fire departments.

In bright sunlight the next day, it looked like the tops of several trees in a patch of woods southeast of the house were missing. That’s because they were: big limbs and the top halves or thirds of eight good-sized trees were on the ground, all on the southeast side of their former hosts. The downed trees also were lying with their tops pointed to the south and southeast which suggests a very strong straight-line wind was the culprit, causing some trees to whip back and forth so violently that they snapped off their top halves.

However one big oak, partially up-rooted but kept from falling by an even bigger oak, was split lengthwise for several feet along its trunk, suggesting there may have been some twisting mo-tion involved during part of the storm.

So lying in that patch of woods is enough firewood for two winters al-though it probably won’t be cured or aged enough for use during the winter of 2012-13. And the good part is that most of it won’t have to be split. There may be a slight problem getting it out but I think I can cut wide enough paths to get a four-wheeler and trailer back there, or the big lawn tractor and a trailer in to retrieve the wood.

Getting it all cut up could present yet another problem, however. Cleaning up the downed trees along the driveway last week made me realize that eight-pound chainsaws pick up weight in direct pro-portion to time in one’s hands. It may take all this winter just to get all that wood cut up for next winter.

The Joplin tornado, an F5 storm, de-stroyed all in a swath one mile wide and 15 miles long. It stayed on the ground long enough to take 161 lives. The story was huge.

Hundreds of journalists came -- and went. The Joplin Globe, a daily news-paper, stayed.

The Missouri Press Association in Columbia last weekend saw the story from inside. Carol Stark, editor, showed a documentary: “Deadline in Disaster.”

While the story was huge, the little stories move us. Now, when we hear negative ads on how bad America is, Joplin reminds us how great America is. Government does work. Churches show their faith.

People respond, as did the Globe.Later, I learned others watched the

movie through tears, also.The documentary started amidst chaos.Beth Pike, a videographer I first met on

her Photojournalism Hall of Fame story, was called by CBS network to report the news. She packed for a two-day stay — and stayed and stayed.

Scott Charton, formerly of Associated Press, was there. On the fly they agreed this story was huge. They zoomed in on the response of the hometown newspaper.

They tell how the Globe staff dug out of rubble and started reporting the biggest story of their lives. They were hit by the proverbial “freight train” about dinner time almost 18 months ago.

One reporter recalls how he brought his family out of the basement to find all of their stuff gone, with nothing but sky overhead.

He left his homeless family to rush to work, going first to the hospital to report. Soon he volunteered as an aide in triage.

Victims were being brought by the truckload, some carried on doors as stretchers.

Then, he headed to the newsroom. After getting dry clothes, he sat down at a computer to write his story, a vivid first-person account of the night of disaster, Stark said.

She recalled how her staff gathered back in the newsroom, instinctively. Only one staffer died in the storm.

After remaking the paper, she left at 3 a.m. to go home for sleep. But the endless sirens in the night prevented that. She got up at 5:30 to return to work. The morning paper was in her driveway.

The paper went to press late, but ar-rived for readers the next morning.

The staff worked under ugly conditions reporting the disaster, not missing an edi-tion. After a week, the tragedy began to hit home. Staffers had to deal with their problems, buying new cars and finding housing.

Their print-on-paper news held the city together. There were no phones, internet, television or electricity in a large area. But the newspaper came out.

Each morning, the front office was

mobbed with people buying papers. At peak the Globe printed 50,000 papers a day. At first there were no ads, just news.

Then the paper gave free ads, 10 inches a day, to businesses to tell where they were — or if they were still in business.

Days later, a Globe reporter led the video crew through her roofless house to show bare walls where favorite pictures had hung. A photographer sorted through his waterlogged library of photo books, throwing them aside.

Stuff becomes less important, com-pared to lives.

The editor said the movie remains hard to watch now. Some reporters suffer nightmares from what they saw.

The Globe shares with other journal-ists the need for disaster plans, especially how to get in touch with people. They’ve developed phone trees, people calling to check on others. They plan alternate links.

And, now they realize the importance of backup, just in case. Ironically, their stories will go “to the cloud.” Those servers are located off site, reportedly in secure caves.

As in any tornado, there are quirky tales to tell. Of some 1,300 pets taken to the shelter about half re-united with owners, including a goldfish.

Your voting rights and responsibilitiesBy State Sen. Dan BrownMissouri 16th District

With the upcoming election, which will feature local, statewide and national candidates and issues this November, I want to take a moment to remind all my friends and constituents to be sure and register to vote, if you’re not already reg-istered. Every vote counts, and making your voice heard will give you a sense of accomplishment, whether or not your favorite candidate is elected to office, or a particular ballot issue important to you passes.

If you are already registered, you may want to consider if anything has changed since your last visit to the polls: Has your name changed through marriage, or have you moved to a different location or jurisdiction?

You should also be aware of deadlines for voter registration. In order to vote in the upcoming general election, you must register to vote by Oct. 10, 2012.

In order to cast your ballot, you must also provide a voter identification card, driver’s license or some other form of valid identification. At this time, a photo ID is not required.

Generally, polling places open at 6 a.m. and remain open until 7 p.m. If you arrive at a polling place after 7 p.m., you will not be allowed to vote. However, if you are standing in line after the polls officially close, you will be allowed to vote.

If you have mobility issues, you may be able to vote from your vehicle. You should be able to drive to your polling place and ask someone to go in and ask a poll worker to bring a ballot to you.

If you are visually impaired, you may be able to enlarge the text on your ballot, or have an audio ballot provided to you.

You may also vote by absentee ballot if you are unable to vote at the polling place on election day due to incapacity, confinement, employment, absence from the jurisdiction or incarceration. The date for absentee voting begins on Sept. 25 and ends at 5 p.m. Oct. 31.

Complete information about the voting process may be found by visiting the Secretary of State’s website at www.sos.mo.gov/elections.

I hope that every citizen takes it upon him or herself to get involved in the election process. Our decisions this year will be our solutions for the future.

Letter to the Editor:Republican candidates who are run-

ning against “Obamacare” and the “failed stimulus” might be in for a rude awaken-ing come November.

Thousands of Missourians are already benefiting from the Affordable Care Act either by keeping their children on their insurance policies until age 26 or by getting help paying for their employees’ insurance as small business owners.

Many Missourians have already re-ceived refund checks from their private insurance companies who had been spending too much of the premium dol-lars collected on profit for their sharehold-ers and not enough on actual medical costs. Republicans in Congress now want to rescind that provision of the ACA so insurance companies can continue to siphon 30 percent off the top again. No surprise there.

Polls show that the majority of Ameri-cans, including Missourians, enthusiasti-cally support the provision of the ACA that prohibits insurance companies from dropping coverage when their policy holders get sick. Republicans point to the results of an off-season election last year where the majority of Missouri voters rejected the ACA.

A “huge majority” of a tiny minority of voters is NOT a mandate no matter how you spin the numbers.

Another tactic Republicans are using

to scare voters is their misrepresentation of how the ACA saves the Medicare program $716 billion by eliminating the “incentive” bonus insurance companies had been collecting for offering the Medicare Advantage plans. President Obama believes that extra money would be better spent on direct medical services to seniors. Insurance companies don’t need a bribe to offer a particular kind of policy, especially when Republicans tout the “free market” as the best way to handle economic matters.

As far as the Reconstruction and Recovery Act passed in 2009 and how much it has helped Missourians, there isn’t room here to list all the projects. That stimulus money didn’t “fail” the thousands of construction workers who built and are still building roads and bridges all over the state.

It didn’t “fail” the thousands of teach-ers and first responders who were able to keep their jobs during the Great Reces-sion. And it certainly didn’t “fail” the families helped by the Health and Human Services Department. Voters who want to look up the facts about the Recovery Act can find them easily online.

Voters who choose to believe outra-geously deceptive television ads will probably vote against their own best interest, and that’s a shame.

others. Be a good president to people.The Best President

By Kaylei HurstToday am going to tell you about the

best president. To be the president you should help people, be nice, be respectful, listen to people and love your country. To be nice to people you should share and fix their problems. The president should have great qualities.

Wednesday, Sept. 26, 2012 • Page 3timely newsBy Phill Brooks

In the aftermath of the Todd Akin controversy, one of my reporters asked me if I could remember a Mis-souri politician who had recovered from a similar catastrophic setback.

I could not immediately think of one Missouri candidate who has been able to reverse a catastrophic setback.

Instead, what I recall is a long his-tory of campaigns that got derailed by an event, story, self-inflicted wound or bad behavior. And no matter how hard those candidates tried, their campaigns never got back on track.

For Missouri, the biggest ex-ample would be U.S. Sen. Tom Eagleton. He was the Democratic candidate for vice president in 1972 — briefly. When stories emerged that he had undergone electric-shock treatment for depression, he was pushed off the ticket despite ini-tial assurances from the presidential nominee, George McGovern, that he stood behind Eagleton “1,000 percent.”

In 1992, Republican Bill Webster appeared to have the edge to become the state’s next governor. He lost that edge when stories emerged that he was under federal criminal inves-tigation. Webster frantically kept denying the stories, but his cam-paign was finished and Democrat Mel Carnahan was elected. Webster later ended up in federal prison.

Another Missouri public figure who saw his political future de-stroyed by a criminal investigation was Warren Hearnes — despite not being charged with anything.

Hearnes had been one of the most effective and dynamic governors I’ve covered. But in the aftermath of stories about federal criminal in-vestigations into his administration and his taxes, Hearnes never again won elective office. Instead, he lost every subsequent race after he left as governor in 1973 — races for the U.S. Senate, state auditor and even for a local judgeship to which he had been appointed to fill a vacancy.

Most recently, we’ve seen Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder drop his expected campaign for governor after stories about his visits to a bar that featured scantly clad women. Kinder did win the August GOP nomination to keep his job as lieutenant governor. This November, we’ll see if there’s a full political recovery.

The most tragic campaign rever-sal we’ve seen in recent Missouri history came after Carnahan’s death in the closing weeks of his campaign for the U.S. Senate in 2000.

Prior to Carnahan’s fatal plane crash, polls showed Republican John Ashcroft well ahead in his campaign for re-election. But that

was dramatically reversed after Carnahan’s death.

Ashcroft tried to get his cam-paign back on track, but the emo-tions that arose from Carnahan’s death and the stand-in campaign of his widow had a lasting impact Ashcroft could not overcome. He became the first man in American history to lose a U.S. Senate race to a dead man.

Yet, Ashcroft also is a demon-stration of how to recover. The re-covery, I think, from his near-tearful concession speech. “Missouri is a compassionate state and, I think, in a very special way, they have demonstrated their compassion,” he said.

Before the end of the year, George Bush named Ashcroft as his choice to be U.S. attorney general. I remember wondering at the time if the gracefulness of Ashcroft’s concession played a part in his selection.

Another example of recovery arises from the 1976 campaign of Democrat Joe Teasdale against Kit Bond’s re-election campaign for governor.

Teasdale had a track record of verbal blunders and he made a major blunder during his cam-paign. Consumer protection was a major theme of his campaign. He promised that if he were elected, he would fire the five members of the Public Service Commission, which regulates utilities.

Oops. PSC members serve terms fixed by law. They cannot be fired — even by a governor. It was a huge campaign gaffe. Yet, Teasdale was able to overcome that gaffe and defeat the sitting governor.

He did it with some of the slickest TV commercials I’ve seen in Missouri. They flooded the air-waves in the closing weeks of the campaign. Bond was unprepared for the avalanche of TV ads. The GOP governor struck me as overly confident and taking his re-election for granted until it was too late.

But, there was another com-ponent to Teasdale’s success that might provide a lesson for today’s political candidates. The Jackson County Democrat misspoke so often that he had become adroit at sidestepping verbal missteps. At times, Teasdale displayed almost humor as he would acknowledge his verbal mistakes. It seemed to take off the edge.

Teasdale adeptly sidestepped the PSC gaffe simply by switching to a promise that he would demand the resignations of the PSC members.

A Good PresidentBy Kolby JahnsenThe president should have

good qualities. A good president should always be nice and hope-fully should know what he’s doing. If the president is a good listener then we have nothing to worry about! I think he’s going to have to work well with others if we want this country to be safer! Hopefully he likes our country and is helpful. The president should be always be respectful to others and is honest. If he’s not any of that stuff we’re doomed.

What Would Make a Good President

By Julianna BaylessDo you know five qualities of a

good president? I think he should be honest. He should be honest because what if the president says he is going to do something like lower prices and doesn’t. We would be in trouble. A president should be kind to others. A mean president wouldn’t be good. If a president didn’t love the USA it wouldn’t be good at all. Our president should set goals and try to reach them. That is how a good president to me should be!

Qualities of a PresidentBy Isaiah BargIf I were president I would be

truly honest to everyone. The pres-ident should be kind to everyone

including the people who work for him. The president should be brave and step up and stop the fighting; at least that’s what I would do. If I were the president I would respect everyone in the White House and everyone in the US. If I were president I would make wise choices of laws and wise choices about the world. And that’s what I would do if I were president.

What Would Make a Presi-dent Awesome!

By Macen BlankenshipDo you know what makes an

awesome president? I can tell you 5 things that would make one. First a president should be wise because the younger you are the less you know. Second a presi-dent should be honest because a president that tells lies wouldn’t be good for our country. Third the president should make gas prices low because if gas prices are 4 bucks a gallon it’s just a waste of our money. Fourth a president should make peace with other countries because we don’t want any wars. Also last a presi-dent should be a good president because he’d have a chance to get reelected! So those are my 5 reasons that I think makes a good president.

The Best PresidentBy Garret WestWhat would make a good presi-

dent? I want an honest president; I don’t want a president that won’t tell the truth. We need a good-hearted president. It would be bad

if we got one that got in trouble a lot. We need a wise president…we don’t want a dumb president. We all want one that doesn’t start wars. We need a Republican, not a Democrat. Democrats make you spend money. That’s the president I want.

This is a Good PresidentBy Emily McKinneyThis what a good president

would do. Five qualities of a good president are about ice cream, gas, flowers, war and reading. I would lower gas prices; it’s too high. My aunt loves planets and she said it’s too high so I would lower it. Now it gets serious! Ice cream is yummy. Yes, yes I know it’s not good for you but it should be about one dollar. Reading is a good thing. Books are just so high. A book I want is $19 plus tax. The war is ok but you lose the one close to you. And what if he said there is no war but there is. That’s so mean I would tell my town, cities, states, and countries. That’s a good president.

What a Good President Needs

By TJ WhelanToday I’m going to tell you

what I would like in a good presi-dent. He has to be all American. He should be very respectful and truthful. The president is a great listener. He has been to school a lot in his life. He should be used to politics in his life. He has to be used to a big crowd. The president knows how to be a leader. That is what I would like.

I want to thank the Gasconade County Republican for printing my letter in the Sept. 12, 2012 issue but not for the typos it contained. The letter “D” was left off of “Your Fired” and “The world should be glad” was misspelled with would. Neither of these were my mistakes, and both altered the full and true meaning of the article.

50 years ago - Sept. 27, 1962A wayward missile which found

its way to a Gasconade County farm last week remains a “mystery” after military officials have declined comment on its kind or origin

The mystery missile apparently landed on the Ben Meyer farm near Drake last Tuesday, and was found Thursday by his son, Eldo.

According to Trooper J. A. Walker, whom Meyer notified of the discovery, the 12-foot projec-tile was 66 inches in diameter and weighed about 300 pounds. Char marks near the missile’s exhaust tubes indicated it had been fired.

It was imbedded in the ground about 1,000 feet from the Meyer home. Meyer’s 15-year-old son removed the missile to the family’s front yard.

Soldiers from the 63rd Ordi-nance Company at Fort Leonard wood picked up the missile at about 2 a. m. Saturday and took it to the military installation. Spokesmen there said they only knew it was not an Army missile.

The large projectile had broken in three parts upon impact. It was

painted white and the only letter-ing was “Do not paint, Dummy Missile.”

A check with the Pentagon Fri-day night turned up nothing. The Defense Department information officer said he knew of no “lost missiles” and had no idea of where the described missile might have come from.

A basketball court is among the latest additions to recreational facilities in Memorial Park. A contractor finished applying a “hot top” surface to the court last week. The Owensville Lions Club furnished the two goals and back-stop assemblies, with the city Park Board financing the remainder of the project.

75 years ago - Sept. 16, 1937Christ Anderson of Canaan

suffered a broken arm and a badly scratched face and Mrs. Anderson was severely bruised when their team of horses ran away, throw-ing them back from the spring

wagon they were riding in Saturday morning.

Mr. and Mrs. Anderson were driving a young team of horses to Owensville about 11 o’clock. One of the horses stumbled just north of the Collins-Morris Shoe factory on highway 28, jerking Mr. Anderson suddenly from the seat of the wagon. The reins dropped to the ground and the horses ran about one-eighth of a mile down the highway when one stumbled again. This time the wagon swerved throwing Mrs. Anderson out. The team was stopped and Mr. and Mrs. Anderson were brought to Owensville for medical attention.

Milford Winter who witnessed

part of the run-away and attempted to stop the horses took Mr. and Mrs. Anderson to their home after they had been treated for their injuries.

105 years ago - Sept. 23, 1907Ben Cooper of Canaan was

seriously injured Saturday, Sep-tember 28, when the horse he was riding dropped dead, throwing Mr. Cooper to the ground. The accident happened near Buschmann’s Store here.

The Evangelical Church is be-ing torn down “this week” and the congregation is contemplating the erection of a parsonage on the new church property.

BJC Hospice in Sullivan seeks volunteers willing to share one of the greatest things in life with their hospice patients – the gift of listening.

BJC Hospice needs volunteers that are interested in giving their time to visit hospice patients in their home or in the nursing home. Training is provided ahead of time. No skill or medical knowledge is required. Volunteers provide re-spite to the caregiver and a new op-portunity for interest to the patient.

Visiting volunteers often talk, read, play games or watch televi-sion with the patient. Sometimes just the volunteer’s presence is all that is needed. If you have a special

talent such as playing a musical instrument or have an interesting hobby, you may want to share that also. No medical or physical care is expected from the volunteer. Care-givers may take the opportunity to run errands or to take relief time for personal activities.

BJC Hospice sees patients in Sullivan, Bourbon, St. Clair, Cuba, Steelville, Union, Cherryville, Ger-ald, Owensville and surrounding areas. If you’d like to offer your time to talk or sit quietly with a patient, know that simply being there and listening with a compassionate heart is a tremendous gift to them. Call Lillian Haanpaa at 573-468-3630 to set up an interview.

On December 31, 2008 you owed the government $34,675; on September 15, 2012 you owed the Feds in D.C. $50,000. Since about half pay no income tax, double that amount if you do. In between, the national average value of housing has dropped from about $170,000 to $120,000, unemployment is up, and household incomes are down about $4,000. We have lost more than 1,000 businesses per week for four years, the price of gas has doubled, and our embassies are under attack in many countries.

The only thing secure about Homeland Security is their pay, but the Treasury keeps printing money so it is losing value. There are nearly 100 hidden tax increases being levied against taxpayers, disability claims are up about 25%, and money saved loses buying power faster than it earns interest. The Chicago teachers are paid about $75,000 per year (plus benefits), are offered a 16% increase in four years (to about $87,000 - nearly twice what most workers are paid) and still they STRIKE. Many 5th graders can’t read, write or do basic math, Chicago drug dealers and street gangs kill 10–12 people weekly with most being dark-skin killing dark-skin, and I’m told it’s my fault because I own a gun.

Our southern border is as porous as a sponge, the B.A.T.F. uses your tax money to buy guns for the Mexican drug cartels so they can kill their people and ours—faster and more furiously—then try to blame that on us as well. The so-called Justice Department is full of liars, crooks, and thieves because they are stealing their paycheck from you, the taxpayer, by not doing their job.

With a little more progress like this we will soon be in hell, that gullible 53% should be praying for Hope and Change, only blind insanity could call this forward. The biggest mistake a governor made was using the wrong finger.

BY DAVE MARNERManaging Editor

BLAND — Curtis Scott of Springfield, Mo., was among some 125 Campers on Mission partici-pants spending last week building a youth cabin on the Gasconade Valley Baptist Association’s 100-acre campground south of Bland.

Walking his dog “Missi” over the lunch break, Scott noted participants in the group had the resources to travel and wanted to “help their neighbors.”

A Campers on Mission flag flies beside the American flag on site during all work projects. The group bring, and sets up, its own flag poles. Between 45 and 50 campers are lined up in orderly rows, electricity and water are supplied down the rows to each unit through a system of cables and transformers and hoses with “Y” junctions.

They take their meals together at the camp’s dinning hall. Area churches, among the 25 across counties which used the camp, provide meals for the construction and sewing crews.

Darrel Crawford of Fair Grove, Mo., has been a member since 1978. “It’s a great group. It’s almost like revival. They want to be working.”

Phil Rector, site director for the camp director of missions for the past 12 years, called the volunteers “multi-talented” and noted they “come from varied walks of life.”

In a week, the group stick built, roofed, sided and installed plumb-ing and lighting for the 58-foot by 20-foot cabin. It was constructed on a concrete floor covering a partially below-grade lower level designed as a storm shelter. Rector said Bill Krause Construction had poured all the concrete in advance of the Campers on Mission group’s arrival Sept. 17.

Crawford noted the group spends a week on a project site in last week of April and the third week in September. While the men build, some of their wives quilt and sew blankets and pillows which are donated to Baptist homes for the elderly or sold to raise funds for mission projects. This is the third cabin built in recent years on the site by groups like this, said Rector. The camp opened in the early 1960s.

FREEI talk about politics. Sometimes

I don’t want to and sometimes I shouldn’t, but it happens. When I talk about taxes, some of my friends believe that everyone should pay their fair share. Equality is a bench-mark of ethical and moral behavior isn’t it? But here is the struggle. 50% of Americans pay 98% of all of the taxes while the other 50% of Americans pay almost nothing. Is that fair? Where is the equality in that? To be fair, wouldn’t we have to lower the rate of the top 50% of the tax payers while we raise the tax rate for the 50% that pays almost nothing?

Some of my friends think that everyone, rich and poor, should pay the same tax rate on all of their income? On the surface it seems to be a good idea with the highest de-gree of fairness. So, here’s a plan. Let’s tax all income. Wages and retirement income, social security, unemployment benefits, welfare, subsidies, entitlements, everything, absolutely every source of income should be fair game. Everyone, 100% of all Americans, would have skin in the game. When the tax rate goes up, everyone feels the pinch. When the tax rate goes down, ev-eryone benefits. That’s fair isn’t it?.

Is it just me, but when speak in general terms of equality and fair-ness, everyone thinks that’s good, and when we actually try to level the playing field and create equal-ity there’s someone out there that believes it’s another bad idea?

The Campaign

Trail

WED., SEPT. 5, 2012The Gasconade County Com-

mission met with Northern District Commissioner Matthew Penning and Southern District Commis-sioner Jerry Lairmore present at Drake with road dept; Presiding Commissioner Ron Jost was absent. Items discussed included: grading and maintenance on the roads was back in full swing now that it has rained. There are problems with two county trucks, one of the old ones and the engine on a new one that is still under warranty.

WED., SEPT. 5, 2012The Gasconade County Com-

mission met with Northern District Commissioner Matthew Penning and Southern District Commis-sioner Jerry Lairmore present at Owensville City Hall, and Presiding Commissioner Ron Jost absent. Clerk Lietzow ask Commissioner Penning if he wanted to take his turn as Presiding; he said he would, but if Commissioner Lairmore wanted to he could; Commissioner Lair-more agreed and was appointed. Session began with the Pledge of Allegience.

PRIOR MINUTESCommissioner Penning made

a motion to approve prior Com-mission minutes dated August 29, 2012. Commissioner Lairmore seconded the motion. The motion passed by vote: Commissioner Lairmore (Yes), Commissioner Penning (Yes), Commissioner Jost absent. WARRANTS FOR PAYMENT

Commissioner Penning made a motion to approve warrants for payment; Commissioner Lairmore seconded the motion. The motion passed by vote: Commissioner Lairmore (Yes), Commissioner Penning (Yes), Commissioner Jost absent.

ROAD CONCERNS AND COMPLAINTS

Commissioner Lairmore re-ported the earlier discussion at the road dept. to Clerk Lietzow for the official minutes; there were no other road issues to discuss. Commission did receive notice from MoDOT of their 2012 federal BRO fund bal-ance standing at $427851.70 and soft match at $74404.32.

GENERAL DISCUSSIONJoey Gross, Treasurer reviewed

his monthly account balances for Commission; General Revenue is currently $100000 ahead of one year ago and Road and Bridge is $140000 below last year. Trea-surer Gross showed Commission a printout he has access to online from the county’s bank that allows him to look at any of the county’s bank accounts.

ROAD CONCERNS AND COMPLAINTS

Preston Kramer, MoDOT and Bonnie Prigge, MRPC, came before Commission same as they are doing in all 8 counties in the region to review the transporta-tion needs in Gasconade County as identified by the TAC and by MoDOT. If any of these needs can be removed or if new ones need to be added, now is the time before the October meeting of the entire group. Everyone agreed to keep on the list the following:*US 50-major improvements-widen corridor to Super 2 building to-ward 4-lane*MO 19-functional improvements-at Hwy. 19/6th St. bridge in City of Hermann; exist-ing bridge is structurally sound, but too narrow*MO 100-safety improvements-at intersection with Hwy. J, 6 mi. west of Hermann *Hwy. 28/19 intersection-safety improvements-add 3rd (turn) lane up to Krausetown road *Improve-ments on 3 bridges considered to be in poor condition: Rt. T over Bour-beuse River, Rt. P over Third Creek, Rt. A over Crider Creek *Hwy. 19N/50 intersection at Drake-new signage in place has already helped, but it was recommended to add solar flashing red light. Rumble strips were discussed but not considered due to the noise they cause in close proximity to houses *MoDOT wants to add to the list: safety improvements-adding 2’ shoulders with rumble strips on Hwys. 28, 100 and 19; all three have medium traffic volume, but a high accident count on 19 between Hermann and Drake. Also add them on Hwy. B, which has the heaviest traffic of any lettered road in Gasconade County.*MoDOT partner with Gasconade County on completing paving of road approaches to Hwys. Commissioner Lairmore explained this had been done many years in a row, until MoDOT quit funding and Commission would be glad to start again.

The only items removed from the list were those that were du-plicates of others already listed. There was a suggestion for a turn lane on Hwy. 19N of Owensville at the school complex, again as a safety improvement. Commis-

sioner Lairmore added that he has been speaking with Ameren UE, who own the abandoned RR tracks under the Hwy. 19 overpass, asking if they would allow that to be turned into a school bus lane and walking trail leading from the school into the city and so far no luck; Mr. Kramer thought that was a great idea and MoDOT could support that.

John Tracy, administrator for City of Owensville, was also pres-ent for this meeting and said at last night’s city council meeting with MoDOT, they agreed to provide support at 50% to the Hwy. 28/19 turn lane up to Krausetown road. Mr. Kramer was happy about that and added MoDOT will contribute 20% which leaves 30% to be funded through MoDOT’s cost-share program; he explained there is a statewide committee that votes to approve which projects get funded.

GENERAL DISCUSSIONBonnie Prigge then spoke to

Commission about a couple issues: there is a wastewater home loan pro-gram through MO Ass’n. of Coun-cils of Gov’t. throughout the state; the purpose is to help homeowners needing to make improvements to or replace sewer systems. She then provided Commission with information from Kelly Sink-Blair regarding Pre-Disaster Mitigation program grants.

Commission then discussed EMD Dan Dyer submitting his res-ignation effective October 1; he will be taking the EMD position in the City of Owensville. Commission hates to lose him, but understands and wishes him well. They ask Clerk Lietzow to send an ad to the newspapers about the part-time job opening; they agreed to accept applications through September 28 and will review them when they meet after that on October 3.

Commissioner Lairmore said 911 is interested in taking over the position; Clerk Lietzow had sent them the job description when it was requested and also copy of the UE budget for expenses and revenue. Commission will give that more thought and likely talk to them about it and find out if Hermann Dispatch might be interested also.

MOTION - ACCEPTRESIGNATION OF DAN

DYER AS OF OCTOBER 1, 2012

Commissioner Penning made a motion to ACCEPT RESIGNA-TION OF DAN DYER AS OF OCTOBER 1, 2012. Commissioner Lairmore seconded the motion. The motion passed by vote: Commis-sioner Lairmore (Yes), Commis-sioner Penning (Yes), Commis-sioner Jost (Absent).

GENERAL DISCUSSIONSteve Schultz, SKW, came to

Commission session to let them know grant funds are now avail-able to county for concrete projects such as steps/sidewalk and he knew Commission had said in the past they would be interested for at the courthouse, especially steps leading up from the street to the building. What his company does, is handle the grant writing and study the site, for a fee around $1500; the county’s share of the grant is 20% with a $50000 minimum project. Commis-sion said they normally use MRPC for grant writing, but he could send more information; Mr. Schultz said the application deadline is Novem-ber 3. His firm also provides services for the BEAP program; they will come in and assess the problem, find the solution and then county proceeds to use their own crew to do the work. Commissioner Lairmore said the county has participated in BEAP projects before.

Commissioner Penning ask if session could be cancelled Septem-ber 26 and it was agreed; he also told Clerk Lietzow the relief valve ordered for the boiler was special-order, but it will be here in time to be installed before the September 15 deadline. Clerk Lietzow reported

leak in the second floor ceiling in the hallway; the air conditioning unit in the attic, had a clogged drain again.

REPORT OF FEESCommission reviewed monthly

report of fees collected by Lesa Liet-zow, County Clerk for the month of August 2012 in the amount of $57.00; also from Sheriff Randy Esphorst for the same month in the amount of $1056.41 civil fee fund, $10.00 general revenue fund and $270.00 Dep. Sher. Sal. Suppl. Fund.

Delay in investingcould prove costly

As you’re well aware, we’re living in difficult economic times. Consequently, you may be forced to make some financial moves you wouldn’t normally undertake. One such move you might be consider-ing is taking out a loan from your 401(k) plan — but is this a good idea?

Of course, if you really need the money, and you have no alterna-tives, you may need to consider a 401(k) loan. Some employers allow 401(k) loans only in cases of financial hardship, although the definition of “hardship” can be flexible. But many employers al-low these loans for just about any purpose. To learn the borrowing requirements for your particular plan, you’ll need to contact your plan administrator.

Generally, you can borrow up to $50,000, or one-half of your vested plan benefits, whichever is less. You’ve got up to five years to repay your loan, although the repayment period can be longer if you use the funds to buy a primary residence. And you pay yourself back with interest.

However, even though it’s easy to access your 401(k) through a loan, there are some valid reasons for avoiding this move, if at all pos-sible. Here are a few to consider:

You might reduce your retire-ment savings. A 401(k) is designed to be a retirement savings vehicle. Your earnings potentially grow on a tax-deferred basis, so your money can accumulate faster than if it were placed in an investment on which you paid taxes every year. But if you take out a 401(k) loan, you’re removing valuable resources from your account — and even though you’re paying yourself back, you can never regain the time when your

money could have been growing.You might reduce your contribu-

tions. Once you start making loan payments, you might feel enough of a financial pinch that you feel forced to reduce the amount you contribute to your 401(k).

You may create a taxable situ-ation. Failure to pay back loans according to the specified terms can create a taxable distribution and possibly subject the distribution to a 10% penalty.

You may have to repay the loan quickly. As long as you continue working for the same employer, your repayment terms likely will not change. But if you leave your employment, either voluntarily or not, you’ll probably have to repay the loan in full within 60 days — and if you don’t, the remaining balance will be taxable. Plus, if you’re under age 59½, you’ll also have to pay a 10% penalty tax.

Considering these drawbacks to taking out a 401(k) loan, you may want to look elsewhere for money when you need it. But the best time to put away this money is well before you need it. Try to build an emergency fund contain-ing at least six to 12 months’ worth of living expenses, and keep the money in a liquid vehicle. With this money, you’re primarily interested in protecting your principal, not in earning a high return.This article was written by Edward Jones for use by your local Edward Jones Financial Advisor.Edward Jones, its employees and financial advisors are not estate planners and cannot provide tax or legal advice.

Representatives— The Great Compromise

What if every time someone thought Missouri needed a new law, the person had to go to Jefferson City to see the governor? Likewise, what if someone had to go to Washington, D.C., to have a voice in the United States government? That would not be

practical.

The men who wrote our U.S. Constitution in 1787 decided that the best way for people to have a voice in their government was to have them elect representatives who would make the laws for them. They called this lawmaking body Congress.

The Framers decided there would be two parts to Congress—a House of Representatives and a Senate. But there was a disagreement between the big and small states about how many representatives a state could have. They came

up with the Great Compromise—the number of representatives in the House of Representatives would be based on population, but every state, regardless of size, would have two senators.

When Missouri became a state in 1821, the men who wrote our state constitution adopted this same system. They called Missouri’s lawmaking body the General Assembly.

Representative Fun Facts:1. There are 163 Missouri representatives. There are 435 U.S. representatives because that is the number of chairs that will fit into the room in the U.S. Capitol. 2. Originally, the Framers had hoped each representative would represent at most 50,000 people. Based on today’s population, that would mean there would be almost 6,000 U.S. representatives! Each U.S. representative represents

about 700,000 people. Each Missouri representative represents about 37,000 people.3. California has the most U.S. representatives–53. Missouri has 8.

d Invite your state and United States represen tatives to visit your school and talk about their jobs.

e Discuss the qualifications for being either a Missouri or United States representative. Are these reason able? Should there be more, for example a requirement that a representative be a high school graduate? Why or why not?

The Gasconade Regional Beekeepers had a mission last Wed., removing a bee hive from a tree in Memorial Park. Estimates are that the bee hive was started 3-4 years ago. The completed hive was 3-4 foot tall and home to hundreds of bees. After well over a hour of work and a few bee stings the nest was removed to be relocated in a new home. The queen bee and many of the bees died when the tree fell. Therefore the bees and nest will be added to a weaker hive to insure the survival of the remainder of the hive.

Boat in serviceOwensville Fire Department personnel from the Mt. Sterling station visited last week with Darrell Decker (second from right), a member of the Board of Directors for the Owensville Rural Fire Protective Association (ORFPA), prior to a training run on the Gasconade River on the department’s new rescue boat. Station No. 2 Capt. Ed Bossaller (on left) drives the boat down-river toward Heckmann Mill with volunteer firemen Elmer Schulte (center) and Kenny Steinbeck. The 17-foot long welded, aluminum “plate boat,” is equipped with a 115 horse power Mercury “OptiMax” direct injection jett motor. The boat and trailer cost $15,000. Decker said the ORFPA purchased the boat and is leasing it to the Owensville Fire Department, through the city of Owensville, for $1. The city will provide insurance coverage on the boat under the agreement. Decker said the rural association expects to spend another $1,000 to outfit the boat which was purchased this past spring. The department’s old john boat, fitted with an outboard motor, was prone to frequent mechanical problems. The plate boat, with a shallow draft using a jett motor, will be more suitable for the Gasconade River, Decker noted. The plate boat was manufactured by Alweld out of Lonsdale, Ark., and sold to the association by Pruitt and Sons, Inc., out of St. James, Mo. Decker said the boat will be stationed in Mt. Sterling for quick access to the Gasconade River. He said it will also be suitable for use on small waterways and at area lake communities.

R-2 employees offered free flu shots at Oct. 12 health fair; vendors sought

Vendors of health and wellness services are invited to participate in health fair being held for Gasconade County R-2 School District staff.

The event will be held on Friday Oct. 12, at Owensville Middle School from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. with middle and high school staff attending in the morning. Elementary school staff from Owensville and Gerald will attend in the afternoon. R-2 schools are not in session that day to allow faculty to attend professional development committee meetings and the health fair.

Jessica Fisher, registered nurse at Gerald Elementary, has planned the event — the third such program for district employees.

Several service providers are already signed up to participate. Briana Decker, a member of the health and wellness committee, said anyone interested in bringing their program or service to the event is asked to call her at the Administrative building at (573) 437-2177 or Fisher at GES at (573) 764-3321.

“We hope that you take advantage of these offers that the wellness committee has worked to put together in order to help you improve your health,” committee members said in a letter to district employees.

Walgreens is planning to attend and give employees with district-provided insurance free flu shots. Those interested in getting the flu shot should sign up with the nurse in your building and give her your UHC card number so that it can be billed directly.

If you are an employee that doesn’t have school insurance you may receive the shot at a discounted rate of $25.99. Registrations for this offer must be made by Friday Sept. 28.

A biometric screening hosted by UHC will also be offered. This will include height, weight, body mass index, blood pressure, blood glucose and a cholesterol check. The committee notes “this is confidential informa-tion and your results will be written down on paper rather than be spoken out loud so no one will get these results other than you. This information is not attached to your name in any way and UHC can not change your rates or coverage based on these results.”

The district’s “accredited group rates are not based on these results; however our rates are based on the number of claims that our district has,” the committee noted. “We are trying to focus on prevention and early detection to help you change or modify your lifestyles to keep you healthy.”

Registration for an appointment for the biometric screening should be made on line at https://register.wellness-inc.com/dutchmen. OMS and OHS staff need to schedule appointments for the morning session. OES and GES staff will make afternoon appointments. All appointments need to be made by Sept. 28.

Lunch will be provided from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and attendance prizes will be awarded.

A mammogram van will be on site from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and appoint-ments should be made through the school nurses in each building. This service is being offered to the general public. Call 1 (800) 870-5731 to schedule an appointment with the unit from Missouri Baptist Hospital.

There will be two sessions offered on “Food in the Fast Lane” that will offer suggestions regarding healthy eating. One session will be at 10 a.m. and the other at 2 p.m.

PHil CONgER, president of the Missouri Press Association, presented Gasconade County Republican staff members Dave Marner, Dennis Warden, owner and publisher, and Jake Warden with 13 awards Saturday during the MPA’s 146th annual convention in Columbia. Conger is publisher of Bethany Republican-Clipper, in Benthany, Mo.

Users of public transportation in the Meramec Region are being asked to help update the region’s transit plan by completing a short survey.

The region’s public transportation plan was initially created in 2008, and Meramec Regional Planning Commission (MRPC) has been contracted by the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) to update the original plan. The plan identifies transit needs of individuals with dis-abilities, older adults and people with low incomes and then provides strategies for meeting those needs.

“What we are doing now is seeing if the needs listed in the plan are still valid, seeing if any new needs have popped up over the years and removing goals that have been accomplished since the original plan was written,” MRPC Planning Manager Connie Wilman said.

Paper versions of the survey are available at senior centers in the region or by calling MRPC at (573) 265-2993. A separate survey was sent to providers of public transportation in the region. All completed surveys are anonymous. Users of the transit system and those with transit needs are encouraged to complete the survey, as their input is an important part in reshaping this plan. Once surveys have been completed, MRPC staff and the plan’s advisory committee will meet in late 2012 to examine the results and prioritize needs.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo — Sec-retary of State Candidate Shane Schoeller’s campaign announced Monday that he has received the Missouri Farm Bureau’s 2012 Friend of Agriculture Award for his commitment to Missouri ag-riculture.

Schoeller, R-Willard, was on a Farm Values Tour across Missouri that has included more than a dozen stops across the state meeting with Missouri farmers and agriculture leaders. Schoeller was in rural Owensville on Sept. 17 and visited with nearly 100 Republican party faithful at the home of Ron and Krista Hardecke.

“I am honored to have received this award from the Missouri Farm Bureau,” Schoeller said. “Agricul-ture is the largest industry and the backbone of Missouri’s economy. As a legislator, I have been com-mitted to ensuring this important industry can continue to thrive in Missouri and as Secretary of State I will continue my commitment to Missouri agriculture.”

Schoeller also commented that the Secretary of State’s office must work to stop unnecessary government burdens on Missouri agriculture and continued his call for fair ballot reforms.

“More government rules and

regulations will continue to harm Missouri farms,” Schoeller said. “But most importantly, we must have a Secretary of State that will not use ballot language to mislead voters and attack Missouri farms like Robin Carnahan. That’s why I will work to pass and implement a fair ballot commission that will prevent the initiative process from being abused by out-of-state special interest groups to attack Missouri farms.”

Schoeller will face Democrat Jason Kander, Kansas City, in the November General Election. Car-nahan, a Democrat, did not seek another term as Secretary of State.

In their first formal debate of Missouri’s U.S. Senate campaign, U.S. Rep. Todd Akin and incum-bent Sen. Claire McCaskill traded barbs on Akin’s controversial com-ments on rape and abortion.

At the debate sponsored by the Missouri Press Association, mod-erator David Lieb of the Associated Press directed his first question to Akin about his statement that a woman cannot get pregnant in cases of “legitimate rape.”

“I’ve answered this question repeatedly and I don’t believe this election, overall, is about talk but it is really about two visions of what America is,” Akin said.

McCaskill said Akin’s com-ments were “unacceptable” and added that they provided a view into his other positions.

“I think Congressman Akin’s comments open the window to his views to Missourians. He has apolo-gized for those comments, but they say a lot about how he views things and that’s where Missourians need to pay attention,” McCaskill said.

Akin took aim at McCaskill’s voting record as a member of the Senate and tied her to President Barack Obama. McCaskill fired back and said the St. Louis con-

gressman was part of the “gridlock” in Washington.

Federal spending and the na-tional debt drew contrasts from both candidates with Akin supporting GOP vice president nominee Rep. Paul Ryan’s budget plan that would give seniors a subsidy to purchase

private insurance plans instead of the current Medicare program.

Akin said Ryan’s plan was a good start, but if it were his budget his plan would be “more conservative” and pay down the debt sooner.

McCaskill said Akin ultimately wants to privatize Medicare. If re-

elected, McCaskill said she would shrink the deficit and introduce means testing to federal entitlement programs to cut down on fraud and abuse.

In a forum marked by contrasts and disagreements, McCaskill and Akin found some common ground

— the federal government should not be involved at efforts to reduce obesity.

The press forum was held Fri-day, Sept. 21, in Columbia at the annual Missouri Press Association convention held at the Holiday Inn Executive Center. In addition to

Akin and McCaskill, Libertarian Party candidate Jonathan Dine also participated in the forum.

Missouri gubernatorial candi-dates — Gov. Jay Nixon, Repub-lican Dave Spence and Libertarian Jim Higgins — also participated in the morning session to open the 146th annual MPA convention. Spence attacked Nixon for his campaign contributions from trial attorneys and said the governor’s office was “up for sale.”

Nixon did not address the ac-cusations and said Missouri was “headed in the right direction.”

When asked about providing relief for children living in the unaccredited St. Louis City and Kansas City school districts, Nixon and Spence both said they would work to boost the districts’ perfor-mance and dismissed vouchers for students to attend a private school as a solution.

Akin, McCaskill spar in Missouri Press Association debateU.S. SEN. CLAIRE MCCASkILL makes a point during her debate Friday with U.S. Congressman Todd Akin in Columbia as Akin looks toward a row of photojournalists covering the event. The debate held during the 146th Missouri Press Association Convention at the Holiday Inn Executive Center in Columbia.

After revisiting their endorse-ment, Missouri Farm Bureau FARM-PAC trustees once again voted overwhelmingly to support Congressman Todd Akin for the U.S. Senate.

The FARM-PAC trustees rep-resent the county Farm Bureaus which are located in every Missouri county.

In telephone conference calls conducted Sept. 5 -11, FARM-PAC trustees representing 104 counties participated and voted to support Akin with results similar to the Aug. 10 endorsement, according to the Missouri Farm Bureau. A two-thirds vote is needed for a FARM-PAC endorsement.

“During the conference calls, some of our members brought up

the statement made by Congress-man Akin last month; however, they accepted his apology and reaffirmed this election is still about issues such as moving our country in a better direction, getting the federal deficit under control, eliminating needless government regulations and creat-ing more jobs,” said Blake Hurst, president of Missouri Farm Bureau. “Our FARM-PAC trustees take our endorsements very seriously, and I am proud of their efforts. Even though reconsideration of an en-dorsement is unprecedented for us, we have maintained a process that is fair, thorough and at the grassroots of rural Missouri.”

On a related note, Akin fared well in the Missouri State Fair Straw Poll conducted Aug. 9-19 where

he received 73 percent of the vote.“The Straw Poll is a fun activity

Missouri Farm Bureau conducts each election year, and while not scientific, the Straw Poll in its 32-year history has accurately predicted who rural Missouri voters will support in November,” Hurst said. Farm Bureau provided the following percentage breakdown of the 6,290 ballots cast by fair-goers in the Straw Poll:

• U.S. President: Mitt Romney - 76 percent; Barrack Obama - 24 percent;

• U.S. Senator: Todd Akin - 73 percent; Claire McCaskill - 27 percent; and,

• Missouri Governor: Dave Spence - 58 percent; Jay Nixon – 42 percent.

Local businessman donates picnic table to Roadside Park

Monday, Bruce Mayberry of BAS Cutting and Welding delivered two picnic tables to Roadside Park at Highway 50 and Main Street.

The Gerald Area Chamber of Commerce takes responsibility for the upkeep of the park, although the city keeps it mowed. Two concrete picnic tables with benches that have been in place that small for years, have begun to crumble. One has already been removed.

When Chamber members began researching replacement tables, they decided to use plastic coated metal tables. These turned out to be very costly.

Chamber member Dawn Cz-eschin contacted Mayberry and asked if he could manufacture some

tables for park at a reasonable price. Not only did Mayberry agree, he

even offered to provide one of the tables at no charge to the Chamber.

The table tops and benches are made from steel mesh which was then coated with a spray on sub-stance meant to be used on truck beds as a bed-liner.

It is hoped the tables will last for many years with little maintenance.

Roadside Park sees considerable use, both from pedestrians who stop to rest and from travelers who stop to enjoy a picnic in the shady park.

The Chamber has been discuss-ing other additions to the park such as trash cans and a water fountain. New landscaping and a sign de-scribing the businesses in Gerald have also been discussed.

In the past, the Gerald Board of Aldermen have discussed repairing the sidewalk at the eastern edge of the park and adding curbing.

Any of these improvements would make a big impact on visitors as they pass through the town and notice the highly visible green spot.

Mayberry’s business is located on County Line Road and may be reached at 573-291-8145

Aldermen avoid anticipated problemAn issue addressed by the Board

of Aldermen in a special meeting last Thursday was highly unusual. It concerned curbing beyond property lines on corner lots.

Walnut Street has a 60 foot right-of-way, measured from the center of the street to 30 feet on either side. The city plans to seal a 32-foot section of that which leaves 28 feet - 14 feet on either side, as a

right-of-way. On a corner property, these right-

of-way lines (where curbing will be installed) jut out into the side street beyond the property line.

Ward 2 Alderman Ed Adams estimates that these extensions beyond the property lines would total approximately 56 feet per intersection.

In order to keep the property

owner from paying for curbing that does not abut his property, the board made a motion that the city be billed for the extensions.

While no one could remember this ever being an issue in the past, all aldermen agreed to Adams’ plan.

The decision would also apply to corner property owners on South Street who are planning to install curbing.

Mushrooms. Sometimes I feel like one at the store when ev-eryone seems to know some-thing that I don’t. Mushrooms are great sauteed in butter and served over a perfectly bar-bequed steak. It can be fun and rewarding when hunting for and finding mushrooms when they are in season. They are not so fun when you hit your golf ball into a field of them. It’s as hard as finding your ball when you hit it into the driving range (trust me on that one!). But what about all those mushrooms popping up in your yard lately? They’ve finally gotten some moisture and have a reason to emerge. Actually, mushrooms in the lawn represent organic activity in the soil and that is definitely a good thing. Yes, they are kind of an eyesore for a while, but consider them a blessing as they tell you about the good things going on below the soil. They’ll shortly be gone and the grass will continue to thrive.

Huge catfishMark E. Vanderpool of Gerald caught the 48-pound blue catfish from Lake Charles in the Gerald City Park Thursday, Sept. 13, at 10:30 p.m. The huge cat was caught on a Zebco 33 rod and reel, using 15 pound test line. Vanderpool’s treble hook was baited with chicken liver. Many large catfish have been pulled from the waters of Lake Charles, but this summer’s drought seemed to have a negative effect on fishing. Hopefully, as the weather cools, the fishing will pick up again. The Gerald Park Board keeps the lake well-stocked.

Big changes for wrestlers

When new district assignments for wrestling were released by the Missouri High School Activities Association (MSHSAA), it marked a significant change for Rod Barn-dollar’s OHS wrestling squad.

Competing in district action against Four Rivers Conference and St. Louis area schools, OHS wrestling fans will see a number of different foes come February.

Moving to the western part of the state, Owensville will be put in Class 2, District 3 with Boli-var, Boonville, Buffalo, Clinton, Harrisonville, Logan-Rogersville, Marshall, Monett, Nevada, School of the Osage, Pleasant Hill, Reeds Spring and St. James.

St. James will move to Class 2 this year after being in Class 1 during the last two-year cycle.

Dutchgirl nine end Borgia victory droughtBY WILL JOHNSONRepublican Sports Editor

For just the third time in over a decade, Owensville Dutchgirl softball has notched a mark in the win column over Borgia.

Throwing a three-hit shutout in Wash-ington last Tuesday, senior Claire Smith joined Sonja Vogt and Amber (Brandt) Linhardt as the only three pitchers to record victories over the Lady Knights dating all the way back to the 2000 season.

“This was a big win for us,” said senior Dutchgirl hurler Claire Smith. “Hopefully this will jump start us for the home stretch.”

Owensville’s last victory over Borgia came in the fall of 2003 when Vogt was in the circle at Lions Field for a 7-4 victory.

“Growing up in Owensville, I always wanted to beat Borgia and it was a great feeling winning that game,” said 2004 OHS graduate Sonja Vogt.

To find Owensville’s last softball win at Borgia, one had to go all the way back to the 2000 season and an 11-0 shutout in five thrown by Amber (Brandt) Linhardt.

“I don’t remember much about that game, but it felt great being able to beat Borgia on their home field,” said 2000 OHS graduate Amber Linhardt.

After a scoreless first inning last Tues-day, Tim Nagel’s Dutchgirls went to work in the top of the second inning.

Bailey Nelson reached on a one-out single and scored later in the inning on

Second half woes send trophy back to HermannBY WILL JOHNSONRepublican Sports Editor

Friday night at Dutchmen Field was a tale of two halves between Hermann’s Bearcats and Owensville’s Dutchmen.

With the momentum and a 14-7 halftime lead, it appeared Dale Long’s Dutchmen would hold on to the Gasconade County Bowl trophy for the sixth straight year.

Andy Emmon’s Bearcats used 26 unan-swered points in the second half to take the trophy back up Highway 19 after their 33-14 homecoming spoiling win. This marked the first time since 2006 that Hermann has been able to possess the traveling trophy.

“We beat ourselves tonight,” said Dutchmen football head coach Dale Long. “You can’t give a team nine extra plays on offense. To Hermann’s credit, they took advantage of them and won the game.”

Owensville took the opening possession of the game on offense after Hermann deferred to the second half upon winning the coin toss.

Highlighted by a 34-yard pass comple-tion from Dutchmen quarterback Terrick Ellis to Ben Angell, Owensville needed just five plays and 84 seconds to get on the scoreboard during homecoming.

Senior running back Cody Howard punched it in the end zone from two yards out for his first touchdown of 2012. Jesse Lowder’s missed extra point kept the OHS lead at 6-0 with 10:36 left in the first quarter.

An Anthony Weirich stop on fourth-and-one forced Hermann into a turnover on downs giving the Dutchmen excellent field position on Hermann’s 48-yard line. Weirich and Ryan Escalante each recorded sacks for Owensville. Alejandro Marquez also paced OHS with a team-high 12 total tackles.

JV Dutchgirl spikers capture tournament title in BourbonBY WILL JOHNSONRepublican Sports Editor

BOURBON — With their varsity counterparts in Camdenton, JV Dutchgirl volleyball coach Lori Payne took her squad to Bourbon searching for hardware.

Solid serving and the ability to avoid playing a third set throughout the day led to a productive Saturday in Crawford County.

Knocking off Steelville and Cuba to advance to the championship match against Sullivan, Owensville swept the Lady Eagles in two sets to bring back the first-place plaque from the Bourbon JV Volleyball Tournament.

Opening the tournament against Steel-ville’s Lady Cardinals, OHS benefited early from a pair of service runs.

Behind the serving of Jenna Mentz and Dani Roblow, Owensville raced out to a 12-1 in game one. With Steelville trimming the Dutchgirl lead back to single digits, Callie Hubenthal delivered three service points helping OHS to a 25-19 victory in game one.

In a closer game two, key kills from Breanna Baker, Hubenthal and Mentz helped the JV Dutchgirls complete a two-game sweep of the Lady Cardinals by a score of 25-22 in the second set.

Three runs adding up to 34 yards Ow-ensville running back Gage Tayloe moved the Dutchmen offense deep in Bearcat territory at the 8:05 mark of the quarter.

Halfway into the drive, OHS needed a 2-yard run from Ellis on fourth-and-one to keep the drive alive. Facing another fourth down at the Hermann four, the Dutchmen were stopped short and turned the ball over on downs back to Hermann.

Trading three-and-outs, Owensville got the ball back as time ran out in a first quarter that ended with them leading 6-0.

A minute into the second quarter, El-lis completed a pass to Matt Pohlmann on third-and-24 that was good for a first down. A block in the back penalty on the Dutchmen instead made it third-and-nine. An incomplete pass led to a punting situ-ation for the Dutchmen.

Two more three-and-outs led to Her-

nals were Cuba’s Lady Wildcats.Jessica Saunsaucie joined the serving

parade with key runs in game one.Midway through game one, Anna

Moritz delivered four consecutive points capped off by an ace giving Owensville a 12-7 lead.

Allowing Cuba to close the gap, Saun-saucie’s second service run of game one eventually led to a 25-17 win.

Game two against the Lady Wildcats saw the Dutchgirls playing catch up.

Battling through 10 ties and 12 lead changes, Moritz stepped behind the serv-ing line with her Dutchgirls trailing 23-20 with the looming possibility of going to a third set against Cuba.

Starting the rally with an ace, Moritz’s serving helped the Dutchgirls avoid a third set taking game two from the Lady Wildcats by a score of 25-23.

Owensville’s victory set up a Four Rivers Conference (FRC) battle with Sul-livan’s Lady Eagles for the championship of the Bourbon JV Volleyball Tournament.

To open the match, an Allison Walker kill gave the Dutchgirls the serve moving Mentz behind the line.

Five straight points from Mentz pro-pelled Owensville to a quick 6-0 lead in

Second • from page 17mann’s next offensive possession at the 6:25 mark of the second quarter.

A pair of costly offside penalties by the Dutchmen led to Bearcat quarterback Craig Winkelmann tying the game on a 3-yard TD run with 2:33 until halftime. Grant Rue-diger’s extra point gave Hermann a 7-6 lead late in the second quarter.

Not to be outdone, Long’s Dutchmen had an answer for the Bearcats to close the first half.

Staring down a second-and-20 after a pair of penalties for illegal motion and a false start, OHS re-gained the momentum.

Finding an open Josh Gregor, El-lis delivered a perfect ball allowing the senior receiver to outrun the Her-mann defenders for a 72-yard TD reception with :16 until halftime.

Tayloe’s two-point run gave the Dutchmen a 14-7 lead going into halftime of the annual Gasconade County Bowl. Tayloe ended his night with a team-high 105 yards rushing on 20 carries.

Starting the second half, Her-mann came out a different team.

“I challenged our team at half-time,” said first-year Bearcat coach Andy Emmons. “I proud of how we came out in the second half and we’re fortunate to get the win.”

Opening the third quarter with the football, Hermann drove 49 yards in nine plays capped by a Winkelmann to Ruediger 3-yard TD pass at the 8:08 mark of the third. Ruediger’s kick tied it at 14-14.

Two more rushing touchdowns by Bearcat runners Kody Thomp-son and Jarred Kolbe increased the Hermann lead to 26-14 with one quarter to play at Dutchmen Field.

Getting the ball back two min-utes into the fourth quarter, Owens-ville went back to work on the run.

Running plays by Howard, Tay-loe, Lowder and Ellis moved OHS into Bearcat territory.

Looking at third-and-five from the Hermann 37, Ellis and Gregor hooked up for what was initially a 6-yard completion and a first down. An OHS penalty for an ineligible man down field nullified the previ-ous play. Two incomplete passes

led to another turnover on downs.Hermann added another long

touchdown run by Kolbe with 5:07 remaining giving the Bearcats their 33-14 lead that also turned out to be the final score.

JV action Monday night in Her-mann went to the Dutchmen by a score of 18-6.

Long’s varsity squad will try again for their first win Friday night at Pacific at 7 p.m.

JV • from page 17the first game.

Pushing their lead to 11-5 after a Baker kill, Walker stepped behind the serving line.

Recording five straight points, Owensville pushed their lead into double digits at 16-5.

Leading by as much as 12 points (20-8) Sullivan nearly came back on the Dutchgirls before OHS sealed the deal on their 25-20 victory in the first set of the best-of-three match.

Set number two started out as a point-trading session until Huben-thal took over serving duties.

Starting with a pair of aces, the Dutchgirl freshman helped bump Owensville’s lead to 11-5 forcing the Lady Eagles into calling their first of two allowed time-outs.

Battling through a pair of ties midway through game two, Roblow stepped behind the serving line.

Capping five consecutive points with an ace, the Dutchgirl freshman helped her team take a 19-14 lead.

Scoring six of the last eight points in the match, Owensville capped an undefeated Saturday of tournament volleyball winning game two, 25-16.

After a week off from games due to the Hermann Invitational Volley-ball Tournament, the JV Dutchgirls will see their home court for the first time in two weeks on Tuesday, Oct. 2 against Hermann at 5:30 p.m.

OMS Dutchmen harriers keep team titles comingBY WILL JOHNSONRepublican Sports Editor

BELLE — Fresh off a team title in Fulton, Lauren Gann’s OMS Dutchmen harriers looked to add to an already overcrowded trophy case at Owensville Middle School.

Seeing four of their top five runners earn medals, Gann’s Dutchmen won their second team championship with 47 points.

Leading the boys out of the gate, Carter Brocato charged near the front of the pack and stayed there throughout the entire race.

Taking second in a time of 9:04.70, Brocato led four Dutch-men among the top 12 finishers.

Also earning medals for finish-ing within the top 20 were Sam Blackwell (4th), Logan Moritz (10th) and Marc Richardson (12th).

OMS Dutchgirl teammates fin-ishing behind Aubuchon included Emma Nicks (54th) and Maria Richardson (88th).

Racing in the JV boys division saw 21 schools represented with just three fielding full teams.

Three JV Dutchmen finished inside the top 20 to earn medals.

Landon McKinney led Matt Candrl’s JV Dutchmen with an eighth-place time of 20:41.23.

Following McKinney in the top 20 were Alynn Chaney (17th) and Andy Gerth (18th). Destin Gooch (21st) missed 20th place and the final medal by over 20 seconds.

Also helping OHS’ third-place team total of 59 points were Justin Isom (26th), Alex Wilka (29th), Brent Korman (35th), Tanner Land-olt (41st) and Clayton Smith (46th).

Running a modified varsity girls lineup due to the Hancock Invitational the following Saturday, Candrl’s Dutchgirls took sixth out of eight scoring teams.

Competing in her final race at Belle, senior Megan Dunlap left Maries County with a medal for her 15th place finish.

“Megan (Dunlap) was deter-mined to have a great race at Belle and she earned a medal because of it,” said OHS head cross country coach Matt Candrl.

Finishing behind Dunlap were fellow Dutchgirls Haylee Reid

(38th), Anna Nicks (41st), Sue Meyer (43rd), Anna Koepke (44th), Ali Doll (50th), Alli Czeschin (65th), Bailey Mistler (71st), Jessica Fudge (72nd), Melanie Korekaas (79th) and Katelin Pack (88th).

Finishing ahead of Owensville (112) in the team standings were Russellville (69), Union (78), Fatima (92), Steelville (103) and South Callaway (104).

With Hancock also playing a role in the varsity boys lineup, Caleb Mundwiller took full advantage of his chance to run at Belle.

Taking 15th in 18:39.41, Mund-willer was the lone Dutchmen to earn a medal at Belle.

Varsity Dutchmen finishing be-hind Mundwiller included Danny Herrera (24th), Wyatt Harrell (42nd), Austin Brocato (60th) and Keith Wehmeyer (66th).

Owensville finished eighth in the varsity boys team standings.

a pair of Borgia errors. Serving as the designated player, Brooke Czeschin walked with two outs and later scored on a RBI single from Morgan Belloir giving OHS a 2-0 lead on the road.

Pitching around two-out hits in the third and fourth innings, Smith and the Dutchgirls kept their shutout in tact halfway through the game.

Entering the top of the fifth, Belloir started with a leadoff walk before being retired on a fielder’s choice off the bat of Katie Havelka.

Havelka later came around to score on a RBI single from catcher Mercedes Spurgeon. After Smith helped her own cause with a one-out double, she crossed the plate on a fielder’s choice RBI from Dayla Gruenloh bumping the Dutchgirl lead to 4-0 over the Lady Knights.

Retiring the next six batters, Smith gave her offense a chance for more runs in the top of the seventh.

Reaching on a fielder’s choice with one out in the seventh, Havelka came around to score when Spur-geon reached on Borgia’s sixth error of the game. This gave Owensville and Smith a 5-0 lead with three outs standing between them and their first win over Borgia in nine years.

Setting down the Lady Knights in order in the top of the seventh, Nagel’s Dutchgirls ended a nearly decade-long victory drought against Borgia on the softball diamond.

Dutchgirls at New HavenTwo days later, Nagel’s Dutchgi-

rls returned to Highway 100 to face New Haven’s Lady Shamrocks in a Four Rivers Conference (FRC) softball showdown.

Needing three runs in the top

of the seventh, Owensville came from behind to knock off the Lady Shamrocks by a final score of 4-2.

Breaking the scoreless tie in the top of the first, Claire Smith reached on a fielder’s choice, stole a pair of bases and scored on a New Haven error giving herself a quick 1-0 lead.

Allowing a pair of hits with two errors behind her, Smith surren-dered the tying run in the bottom of the second allowing the Lady Shamrocks to knot the score at 1-1.

Leaving the bases loaded in the top of the fourth nearly proved costly for the Dutchgirls.

New Haven broke the 1-1 tie in the bottom of the sixth getting a run on three hits to take a 2-1 lead into a do-or-die top of the seventh for the visiting Dutchgirls.

Alayna Abney started the rally reaching on an error. A walk from Belloir and a fielder’s choice by Havelka set the table for Smith.

With one swing of the bat, Owensville’s senior hurler gave her team the lead with a two-RBI triple scoring Belloir and Havelka for a 3-2 lead. Spurgeon then came through with a RBI groundout scor-ing Smith giving OHS a 4-2 lead.

Retiring all three Lady Sham-rocks in the bottom of the seventh, the Dutchgirls picked up their sec-ond conference win and their sixth victory overall.

Weather permitting, Owensville will honor seniors Claire Smith, Mercedes Spurgeon, Kayla Danz and Brooke Czeschin on Thursday, Sept. 27 at 4:30 p.m., when the Dutchgirls will face Belle’s Lady Tigers at Lions Field in a varsity-only contest.

It’s up to Herbie and his bug battalion to “come through in the clutch”! Fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a really great time! Showtime is Wednesday September 26, 2012 at 6:30 p.m.

Sunday afternoon the Owens-ville/ Rosebud Lutheran churches were here to offer services to residents and their families. The residents also enjoyed watching the last Cardinals/Cubs game of the regular season, with the Car-

dinals winning two out of three.Monday morning Pastor Jackie

Asher was here bright and early to offer Bible Study. She always does such an amazing job and leaves us all smiling from ear to ear. Later that morning I headed out with the room visit cart offering one on one visits. I went around with new reading material and also did a few interviews of some new residents. Bingo was held Monday afternoon with help from Betty Curtman. She also brought a ton of great gifts along with her.

Tuesday morning after break-fast we gathered in the activity room for Fun & Fitness. It has been several days since we last gathered so we were all so excited. Pam brought the Scorpion’s which is really a great cd to exercise to. Once we were done with Fun & Fitness, Pricilla and Dorothy joined us for Sing-a-Long. We had a great time singing hymnals out of our yellow books. After lunch the ToGo bus was here to take a group of us to Walmart. Since I was by myself I only took along three shoppers. On the way back we took the scenic route through Owensville seeing places none of us had ever seen before, We were all very grateful for our Sunday

drive on a Tuesday afternoon. Chery stayed behind and played an assortment of games with several residents.

Wednesday morning after Fun & Fitness we were joined by the Ladies VFW Auxiliary for our monthly birthday party celebra-tion. A Happy Birthday goes out to Paul Tilton, Dorothy Cahill, John Becker, Bruce Zulauf, Buddy Stovall, Sylvia Stalcup, Dot Zelch and a very, very special Happy 102 Birthday to Gus Nicks. We would like to thank Joan Holt, Mary Hayes, Jennie Teft, Trisha Elle, and Peggy Tarrell for all the wonderful cakes they brought in for the celebration. Manicures were held later that afternoon and the movie after supper also brought in a big crowd.

Thursday we gathered for Fun & Fitness and were all excited that Pam brought Michael Jackson for us to exercise to. A few rounds of Spill and Spell were played before lunch. Thursday afternoon was the big day. Several residents wait all year long for our Hay Ride. It was a beautiful day with sunshine and very little wind blowing. We all headed out to the front patio and waited our turn to load up on the hay wagon, once we were all on,

Alex headed out into the open blue yonder (also known as the back field).We had a great time telling stories and singing songs. I would like to thank all the staff that helped with the loading and unloading, Case for lending us the tractor, and to Rosebud Tractor for the use of the hay wagon. Without all their help none of this would be possible. Thursday was such a great day and it also ended great with music from Center stage. The residents always enjoy them coming up and performing.

Friday morning the ladies from the Immaculate Conception Church stopped in to offer Rosary to all the Catholic residents. Bingo was played later that afternoon with help from Joann Lexa and prizes donated form Geraldine.

By Steffani MitchellAfter putting up with such

extreme heat this summer, fall is finally upon us and waking to 40 degree temperatures will be the norm for a while. That’s a little chilly for some, but we have been blessed with perfect sunny temperatures throughout the day. With the change in weather, it has us all thinking about the holidays that will be here before we know it!

This week I will be busy getting the fall and Halloween decorations in place and will start ironing out the details for our Halloween party! It’s definitely a favorite for many of the residents with myself included! In activities this past week, Jim and Jane came in for Sunday school and had a nice crowd of residents ready to see and visit with them. After lunch, the Zion Lutheran Church held their service in the activity room for the residents as well.

Monday morning, Rosary started the day for our Catholic residents in the Assisted Living wing while many other residents met in the activity room for Health Club. We have several exercise groups going on in the facility now, including the Assisted Liv-ing. Those residents did their

own workout after Rosary was completed. Back in the activity room, after we got our joints and muscles moving better, we headed over to the tables for Card Club. We have so much fun playing this game and with chocolate being the prize, we all get a little competitive! Since Monday was National Apple Dumpling Day, we couldn’t let the day go by without having some of our own! Many of the residents were a great help coring, peeling and slicing the apples to get them ready to roll into dumplings. We made several batches and enough for everyone to enjoy after their supper that evening. They were a huge hit!!

Tuesday, Judy got her shop ready for manicures and she kept very busy polishing up our already beautiful ladies! While Judy was busy with manicures, Opal got her music ready in Do Drop Inn’s dining room for her exercise class. This has turned into the biggest exercise class in the facility and I think it has a lot to do with Opal herself! She is such a wonderful lady who enjoys her job and loves her residents so much that any one can see it every day she is here! The residents truly love her too! After lunch, Resident Council

held their monthly meeting in the activity room. They lined out their special meal for next month and talked about the fall menus that the kitchen would be serving. They will be holding elections at the next meeting in October. The Red Hats Club met Tuesday eve-ning after supper with very eager residents ready to get to work on their next project.

The very famous donut/coffee social was held Wednesday morn-ing in the activity room. Another great crowd came out to have the very delicious Casey’s donuts that were made fresh for us that morn-ing. Bingo was held that afternoon with our September sponsors, the First Baptist Church. These ladies are so much fun to be around and they had all the residents laugh-ing and cutting up with them! We look forward to seeing them again this week!

Thursday, Gary Goza came in to entertain the residents. He has so many fans here at the Manor and they always are excited to see him. He brought with him some 1950’s classics and the residents just loved it!! They all put in their requests for next month. After lunch, we had a good group ready to win more chocolate at

Card Club. Friday morning, we held Health

Club in the activity room with ev-eryone ready to get warmed up with our exercises and stretches. Afterwards, they played dominoes until it was time to get cleaned up for lunch. That afternoon, we had so many residents ready to win it big at bingo!! Elda Mae was our first cover-all winner this week and she was so tickled she won! She chose a beautiful horse figurine that is one of many that was recently donated to us from the Stranghoener family.

Saturday, several of the resi-dents who enjoy their morning walks in the courtyards have been waiting until it’s not as chilly before going out. In fact, now the afternoons are so pretty that they can spend extra time outside and not get too hot! Several of the neighborhoods played differ-ent games such as Yahtzee and dominoes while Garden Lane continues to work very hard on a 1000 piece puzzle. This week we are so excited to have the Quilter’s Guild here to help with any of our residents mending needs and help with the different projects they are planning. I really look forward to telling you all about it next week!

Missouri, September 24 - Aver-age retail gasoline prices in Missouri have fallen 9.4 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.65/g yesterday. This compares with the national average that has fallen 4.3 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.81/g, according to gasoline price website MissouriGasPrices.com.

Including the change in gas prices in Missouri during the past week, prices yesterday were 48.0 cents per gallon higher than the same day one year ago and are 4.3 cents per gallon higher than a month ago. The national average has increased 8.8 cents per gallon during the last

month and stands 29.0 cents per gal-lon higher than this day one year ago.

“The national average has begun to drop nicely over the last week, and while it certainly doesn’t feel like much, it is noteworthy,” said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. “Oil prices were all over the map last week, closing in on $100/bbl one day and dropping to $92/bbl later in the week. I’ve probably had more double takes watching oil prices in the last week than I’ve had all summer. Watching

oil prices last week was as wild as watching the Detroit Tigers try to take a division lead over the White Sox,” DeHaan said.

GasBuddy operates Missouri-GasPrices.com and over 250 similar websites that track gasoline prices at over 140,000 gasoline stations in the United States and Canada. In addition, GasBuddy offers a free smartphone app which has been downloaded over 20 million times to help motorists find gasoline prices in their area.

Outdoors in the Ozarks

BY LARRY DABLEMONTMr.Dablemont is a contributing writer to various syndicated newspapers as well as author of “Outdoors in the Ozarks” books and “The Lightnin’ Ridge” journal. He is also a guest to speaker on radio stations and to various organizations. He

can be reached by e-mail at: [email protected].

I am sending this column from a place called Nestor Falls in Northwest Ontario at the east end of Lake of the Woods. We have been fishing here for several days and two of those days were a lot like winter. There was a series of fronts coming through, providing sunshine for an hour and then heavy clouds and rain for an hour. For the next couple of days we expect to have very nice weather, and fishing should be good. Up to now, the crappie which move in and school at various places in the lake, have not showed up. The walleye fishing has been good, but they are small. Most have only been 12 to 14 inches, some much smaller. In two days of fishing we have only hooked four walleye above 15 inches. Of course the smaller fish are very good to eat, and on light tackle they fight hard.

We had a shore lunch yesterday in which i tried to show everyone how the old timers did it out on some beautiful rocky point, and it was enjoyable. Afterward we got into a spot off a reef and caught some yellow perch, rock bass and smallmouth bass. Again, they weren’t lunkers. The yellow perch is a fish not talked about much, as they are often stunted and wormy, but on Lake of the Woods they get up to 12 inches or so in length, and they are just as good to eat as a walleye. They are a colorful little fish, looked down upon by walleye anglers, and those after northern pike or muskie, but they are, like our bluegill and sunfish, numerous and easy to catch.

Right now, most fishing is deep on lake of the woods, and it will get better that first week of Octo-ber, but it will be windy and cold much of the time. It might be hard to imagine, but one morning here it was 29 degrees and one day we wore coveralls, and got out to build a fire once just to warm up. They say that for the next couple of days, the high temperatures will rise to the mid fifties.

One guide told me he thinks Lake of the Woods is getting too much fishing pressure, and too much commercial fishing is affect-ing the size of the fish. Certainly if you fly out to the many surround-ing lakes you will catch bigger fish, but another guide discounts the idea. He says the commercial fishing pressure on Lake of the Woods is as great as ever. But one thing most agree on is the fact that northern pike are slowly becoming fewer and fewer and smaller and smaller. But in those remote fly-in lakes there are plenty of them. Even there, it seeems to me they are not as big as they once were.

There is a spot out on Lake of the Woods where we have been fish-ing where an eagle puts on quite a show for us. He sits very close and provides some beautiful pictures, but when we catch a yellow perch and throw it back into the water, he sweeps down and nails it, close to

the boat. It is a sight to see, as he dives and circles and whips those big wings to get right over the fish, then nails it with his talons, to carry it away. I have never seen an eagle so close in Missouri or Arkansas waters. As close as he gets to us, this big mature white-headed eagle has a mate that stays in one spot on the limb of a high dead tree on a nearby ridgetop, and seldom moves. It seems as if that might be a female which the male is feeding. Or maybe you can put it in human terms and imagine her sitting there giving him instructions. Of course, there is no way of knowing if that nearly tame eagle which has become our close friend is a male or female. I’d bet the two of them raised young eagles somewhere on Lake of the Woods this spring.

There was a bellowing bull moose on a ridgetop close to where we were fishing yesterday, and we have seen several deer around the lake. Deer and moose do not live in abundance in the same habitat successfully because moose are af-fected by a brain worm which deer carry. It seems to kill the moose, but not the deer. Nevertheless, deer are thriving, and the bucks up here look like they will make two of the bucks we have in the Ozarks. There are antlers on these deer that look like the ones raised in midwest deer farms.

There are also the wild creatures here that fascinate us-- those of us who come from the Ozarks anyway. Little half sized red squirrels with pointed ears that give you what-for in high pitched squeaks from pine branches, and their enemy, the pine marten, which is something like an oversized tree weasel. There are larger tree creatures known as fishers, which are the pine marten’s enemy, and an assortment of birds you never see in the midwest, like the whiskey jay. The colors right now are fantastic, reds and orange bright against the green pines... fall is here, and winter is near in Ontario.

We are not just here for the fishing, we are finishing a book about my old friend Tinker Helseth, which is a tribute to the old time Canadian trappers, hunters, bush pilots and guides he knew in his boyhood. It will be a great book, as Tinker himself is a grizzled old veteran outdoorsman, who knows more about the Canadian Woods and waters than any man i have ever met up here. His book will be done before Christmas, and if you want one of the signed and numbered copies when they come off the press, drop me a post card and we will hold one for you.

I’ll be back in my office next week, writing again about the Ozarks, and hopefully we will have some really good photos from this trip. My adddress is Box 22 Bolivar, Mo. 65613 and the email address is [email protected]
