Warrensburg Town Court Report
Gonzales marks 25 yearsspreading holiday cheerBy Thom [email protected]
WARRENSBURG — W ith a Santa statuestanding as a silent sentry behind her , Glo-ria “Bunny” Gonzales leaned over a table inher basement and pulled a sheet of festivewrapping paper around a boxed toy doll.
For 25 years, she has devoted thousands ofhours year-round to Operation Reindeer —a program that distributes toys and food tochildren and their families at Christmastime.
As she wrapped toys, she talked of howshe now needs help, as some of her r ecordsof past years’ distributions have been lost.
Gonzales is asking that any family thatwas assisted thr ough Operation Reindeerlast year give her a call at her new phonenumber, 623-3424, preferably before 10 a.m.or after 3 p.m. Folks that seek to donate itemsor cash, or help out in other ways, ar e wel-come to call, she said.
Last week, Gonzales and her friends r e-called how Operation Reindeer started aquarter-century ago in Junie’s Pub onSchroon River Road.
The first year, Gonzales just helped out Ju-
nie and Theresa Shaw. The second year, shetook over the r eins of the pr oject, and she’sbeen or ganizing it since with the help ofmany men and women in the area, Gonzalessaid.
“The women do the work while the mensit and drink beer,” she quipped.
Verna Baker Springer spoke about Gonza-les’ selfless dedication to serving others, es-timating she brightened the lives of 1,600 ormore local children since the mid-1980s.
She noted that Gonzales buys hats andmittens — as well as toys — for each childon her list.
Gonzales added that Flor ence LaPoint ofWarrensburg routinely donates a full schooloutfit for each child that’s on the OperationReindeer roster.
Springer said Gonzales obtains a turkeyfor each family, as well as other fixings for afestive holiday dinner.
She takes this charitable ef fort further ,Springer continued.
For every “latchkey” child, Gonzalestucks a jar of peanut butter and maybe someSpaghetti-Os into the food basket, so theyoung students can feed themselves whenthey are at home alone after school, Springersaid.
“Bunny’s the most tender-hearted personI’ve ever met,” Springer said.

Warrensburg resident Robert Hemsing, 29, won the racewith a time of 22 minutes, 15 seconds. For his performance,he received an overnight stay for two at the Queensbury Ho-tel. Several race participants hailed fr om distant places —as far away as Houston, Texas, Connecticut and Dover, Del.— but the hometown contingent placed well in the stand-ings.
Other top finishers were as follows:Under 18 Male: John Kelly of Warrensburg; Under 18 Fe-
male: Alice Miller of Dover, Del.; Male 19-40 Travis Cayea,of Cadyville; Female 19-40 Roberta Carruthers, of Warrens-burg; Male 41-60 Randy Boyce of Oakfield; Female 41-60 Pa-tricia Monahan of W arrensburg; Male 60+ Mark Sager ofKattskill Bay; and Female 60+ Dottie Langworthy of W ar-rensburg.
Bicentennial plans brewingA group of local citizens from the Warrensburgh Histori-
cal Society, town Beautification Committee and variouschurches joined local government officials Oct. 11 to discussplans for the upcoming W arrensburgh Bicentennial, occur-ring in 2013.
The date of the Bicentennial of the town’s formation is Feb12, 2013, and activities are planned to occur all year long.
The committee brainstormed, and many ideas emer gedfrom the discussion. Sandi Parisi is composing a book aboutWarrensburgh, to focus on 200 people and 200 events over200 years.
The suggestions for activities included residents plantingyellow and blue flowers to adorn the town as it celebratesit's history. Also, churches are encouraged to plan events tocoincide with the Bicentennial.
Those who would like to be involved in the planningprocess are urged to contact Sandi Parisi at 623-2207. Watchthis column for future meeting dates.
Trailer classroom to be scrappedAt the Oct. 11 Warrensburg Central School Board meeting,
the board decided to allocate $14,000 for the removal of oneof the two trailers used as classr ooms at the elementaryschool. The sum includes asbestos testing on the str ucture.The board also decided to pay for the r emoval the asbestosin the r emaining trailer classr oom, with the amount not toexceed $20,000. The low bid to merely remove the classroomwas $5,800.
School surveys soughtAs of Oct. 11, 500 surveys seeking local educational prior-
ities of school district r esidents have been r eturned to the
Warrensburg School boar d. Those who have not filled outtheir survey are asked to do so. The board is using these sur-veys to give them dir ection as it formulates the 2012-2013school district budget.
A student survey is being developed to get the students’input on what programs they feel should be retained or im-proved upon as the board is preparing the 2012 budget.
School district officials said that Warrensburg Central wasclassified by the State as a “School in Need of Improvement”due to low scores on state exams, particularly regarding stu-dents with disabilities in grade levels 3 through 8. Elemen-tary Principal Amy Langworthy stated that although the stu-dents performed well on the math section of the exams, theyscored low in reading comprehension.
The high school’s open house is to be held Nov . 2 at theschool from 6 to 7:15 p.m., followed by a performance of theLake George Community Band at 7:30 p.m.
Town installing water metersWater meters have now been installed in most businesses,
Warrensburg Town officials announced at their Oct. 12 meet-ing.
The town will be flushing the fire hydrants from Oct. 17through Oct. 28, and motorists are reminded to exercise cau-tion on behalf of workers who are conducting the chores onroadside through town.
With the rainy weather , homeowners who ar e pumpingout their basements ar e urged not to let their sump pumpsdischarge water into the sanitary sewer system.
It was announced that the town board is now developingdiscounted rates for r esidents who do not use the water orsewer for part of the year and who do not disconnect fr omthe facilities while their homes are not in use. Board mem-bers said they realize there are many residents who are hereduring the summer only.
It was also announced that Warrensburg High School stu-dent Teresa Acuna is working on a Girl Scout Gold Awardproject in which she will inventory the graves of veteransburied in local cemeteries.
A sum of $1,820 in occupancy tax r eceipts was awar dedby the town boar d to the W arrensburgh Historical Societyfor advertising purposes.
A fir e inspection was conducted on the Senior Citizensbuilding on Main St. and it was determined that fire extin-guishers and some exit lights will have to be pur chased tobring the building up to code.
Work continues on pr eparing a grant application for theFloyd Bennett Memorial Bandstand r estoration pr oject,town officials noted.
Alan Smith was named as an alternate to the Board of as-sessment review.

I’ll never understand the art offundraising or the skill of some indi-viduals to successfully solicit dona-
tions. Take the many non-profit organiza-tions that give you something for a speci-fied donation amount—like a public T.V.station giving you a gift of a MichaelBernard Beckwith motivational DVD foryour money pledge.
Many years ago I donated a few dollarsto a small, Catholic school in New Mexico.It was doing God’s work by helping pro-vide an education and moral training toyoung Native American members of thechurch. I was happy to mail a check for afew dollars to show my support. I hopedmy few bucks would at least cover thecosts of the mailing appeal (targeted at me)with a little extra for the kids.
In the coming months I received moremailings from the school: Pens, notepads,calendars, lapel pins, plastic glow-in-the-dark crosses, prayer cards, personalized re-turn address labels, and feathered medi-cine wheel wind chimes. Aside from thefact that all of this stuff was manufacturedin China, not by the school children, I won-dered why it was necessary to send me“free gifts” in the first place? Included withthese free gifts were words of thanks andappeals to send more money.
Of course I have no problem sending theschool a few dollars a few times a year tohelp with its good works, but now I have atop desk drawer at home stuffed with “freegifts.” I have been handing out Pueblonotepads and wind chimes to friends whileI place the prayer cards and the plasticglow-in-the-dark crosses in a small basketat the entrance of a local church.
The local church, recognizing the samebounty of “free gifts” received by itsparishioners donating to various churchcharities—yes, even my favorite Indianschool—has a basket for churchgoers inwhich to clean out their desk drawers. Inthe little basket you’ll find unblessedrosaries, holy cards with pictures of saints,mini prayer books and yes, even a few ofthose plastic glow-in-the-dark crosses.
Why is it that fundraisers feel folkswon’t donate money if they don’t receive
something in return? Shouldn’t charity be aone-way street?
Maybe charity does involve a little self-ishness now and then—like the fact thatgiving something to those in need canmake the giver feel good, even useful. Butif giving is predicated only by what thegiver receives, then I think we’ve missedthe point.
I don’t fault the Indian school for mail-ing me trinket wind chimes and ultra-thinnotepads, but I do wonder why itsfundraisers spend the school’s hard-to-findmoney for such manipulative trinkets?
I know somewhere scientific data existsthat shows that people are more likely todonate money to a non-profit organizationor cause if they get something in return.But I’d like to believe that, perhaps naively,this just isn’t so—that people like me actu-ally donate money or volunteer time forthe simple joy of giving and sharing per-sonal bounty with others. Even the ideathat some donations to charities are tax de-ductible appears to turn the entire processinto something like a tawdry businesstransaction. Perhaps this kind of reciproci-ty was always the foundation of charitablegiving?
Psychologists Anthony Pratkanis and El-liot Aronson, in their book titled “The Ageof Propaganda: Everyday Use and Abuse ofPersuasion,” write that “the norm of reci-procity is successful as a persuasion devicebecause it directs our thoughts and carriesits own motivation to act on thosethoughts. We are directed to think ‘Howcan I repay my obligation?’ as opposed to‘Is this a good deal?’ Our primary motiva-tion is to avoid the uneasy feeling thatcomes from transgressing the norm.”
So my obligation is to repay the receiptof notepads and glow-in-the-dark crosses?
Admitting that Pratkanis and Aronsonare likely correct in their assessment of theunderlying motivations of reciprocity, itstill doesn’t scratch the surface of why Ipersonally feel good about sending a smallIndian school in New Mexico a few dollarsmore.

Charity begins with a free giftUntil we get the na-
tion pointed in theright dir ection,
what we do on the local lev-el will never get things backon the right track towar dcorrecting the financial messwe currently find ourselves.
Everyone r unning for thetop job in Washington claimsto be a leader , includingPresident Obama, whopromised major changes af-ter he was elected. True lead-ers break with tradition andintroduce new methods to solve the na-tion’s problems.
The first major pr oblem I believe thiscountry faces is a money pr oblem. I’m re-ferring to the money pr oblem that is ulti-mately at the root of many of the other oneswe face as a nation, and while it starts withthe election of the commander in chief, italso pertains to every elected of ficial ...federal, state and local.
Over this past weekend, pr esidentialcandidates r eleased their r ecent financialreports. At this point in the election maze,it’s all about the money , not votes, as thevotes follow the money . While Pr esidentObama hopes to raise a billion dollars, hehas raised more than $70 million so far. Incontrast, the Republican candidates havecollectively raised $52.6 million, with Per-ry at $17 million, Romney at $14 million,Paul at $8.2 million, Bachman at $3.9 mil-lion and Cain at $2.8 million.
Raising that much campaign money is atthe very root of what ails our political sys-tem. First of all, people, companies or“Special Interests Groups” don’t give mon-ey away without expecting a r eturn ontheir investment. What they are bargainingfor is access. With access comes influence,and with influence the person we’ve elect-ed to address our problems now has stringsattached, giving those inter est gr oupsgreater pull over the pr esident than wecould ever muster with our votes. Second-ly, the lar gest use of those funds raised isfor advertising to attack the other candi-dates.
According to Americans for CampaignReform, less than one percent of Americans— voters — fund campaigns, and mor emoney is raised in W ashington, D.C. thanin 32 states combined. Private contribu-tions distort budgetary priorities and helpsustain a multi-billion-dollar system of
special tax br eaks and gov-ernment spending programsthat benefit a few while cost-ing the taxpayers at large. Solong as special inter est con-tributors continue to enjoyoutsized influence in Wash-ington, politicians will beunable to enact wholesaledeficit reduction in the pub-lic interest.
This may not be popularwith my media brethren, butuntil we eliminate politicaladvertising fr om the
process, thus r emoving the need to raisemassive amounts of money, we will not beable to r ein in the political influence thatcomes from special interest campaign con-tributions. And we will never get candi-dates to speak candidly about the issues.
Removing the campaign dollars that getfunneled into television, newspaper andInternet advertising is one of the key influ-encers that must come to a stop.
What news or ganizations should do isprovide for ums, debates and interviewsfor all the candidates to communicateequally across the boar d. Advertising canthen be sold directly from the news medi-um to support such featured events.
This way, we level the playing field forall candidates. The electorate would beforced to watch, read, and listen to the can-didates without the bombar dment of at-tack ads. By r emoving the special inter estinfluence, elected of ficials can tackle thejobs we sent them to do without the con-flict of interest the current system forces onthose we elect.
Campaign reform is a must. Otherwise,we’ll continue to allow these elections to bebought by the highest bidder, and our liveswill be spent in the inter est of special in-terests. The special interest groups current-ly with the gr eatest pull ar e identified inthe following categories agriculture, ener-gy, defense, labor and healthcare and theyinclude programs and policies that ar e fa-vored by both parties. W ithout seriouscampaign reform does it really matter whowe put into office?
Real change can’t come about until thetop or the bottom gets serious about ad-dressing these needed reforms.

•100 Years Ago – Oct. 1911•Update - infanticide at Mineville
In the 30 years this column has been r un-ning, the story that has received the most at-tention ever was in the May 7 and 14, 201 1editions of the Adirondack Journal. It told ofthe headless bodies of two babies, girlsabout seven months old and thought to betwins, who were found hidden May 5, 1911.The two babies wer e discover ed near astump by several boys playing ball at themouth of the abandoned Old Bed mine atMineville which had been deserted for manyyears. A boy whose last name was Sharr owsaid that the bodies were carefully and neat-ly sewed up in a cloth sack.
Dr. R.T. Saville, who lived close by, was ofthe opinion that the children had been deadfor about thr ee weeks befor e they wer efound. Their heads could not be located al-though a thor ough search was made in thearea wher e the bodies wer e found. An in-quest was held by Coroner Marshall and noverdict was r eturned. Police sear ched des-perately in an ef fort to solve these heinousmurders and a vague reference in the news-paper was made that ther e was suspicionthat pointed str ongly to a woman as theguilty person and that they believed that themystery would soon be solved. I could findno further reference to the case in later issuesof the Warrensburgh News.
I enlisted the help of Barbara Whitfor d atthe Richards Library who is skilled at com-puter research. She found no information inother Adirondack newspapers that the casehad ever been solved, but she uncovered ad-ditional interesting pieces to the puzzle.
Within a short time after the discovery ofthe decapitated Mineville girls, the bodies oftwo other infant childr en wer e found inNorthern New York, one in a suitcase nearPlattsburgh which had evidently been
thrown fr om a train and another near PortHenry, less than a week old, that had beencast up on the shore of Lake Champlain. Noclues were ever found to help solve these in-human crimes and to bring the perpetratorto justice. It is an unsolved case lost in themists of time, not unlike that of Jack the Rip-per, with all the people involved dead andgone and many untold secr ets buried alongwith them. I’d like to hear from anyone thathas any further information.
Old Bed mine comes aliveAn inter esting side story to the mur ders
involves the spooky Old Bed mine, a darkand dangerous place. It was just a little overfour years after the bodies were found therethat the old open pit mine came alive at 3a.m. on a T uesday in September 1915. Be-cause no one was around at that time in themorning probably saved a lot of lives as theearth shook and the entir e west bank and aportion of the south side, comprising manythousands of tons of r ock and dirt slid of finto the bottom of the mine.
Through this great tremor, the Port HenryIron Ore Company’s stone hoisting house onthe south side of the mine sagged at least sixinches on one end and was on the ver ge ofsinking into the mine. The building used byWitherbee, Sherman & Co. for making con-crete blocks had slid within a few feet of theyawning opening and was in danger of de-struction. The highway along the south sideof the mine was carried away and railwaytracks were twisted and moved which wouldlater have to be replaced.
Cracks appear ed in the earth near themine and small slides began to occur. Whenthe big cave-in originally happened the fourinmates of the mine hospital, located nearthe mine, were greatly frightened and wer eremoved to another building, but the hospi-tal did r emain standing. All the horses and
wagons in the company barn wer e taken toa place of safety and it was believed that thebarn would have to be later moved to securenew site. Another new large crack appearedon the surface and bystanders had no doubtthat the worst was yet to come. It is here thatthe story closes.
Now, about 100 years later , that crack intime and space is closed, leaving us wonder-ing at the secrets that were lost there.
Carrie Doring rests in peaceIn the July 9 issue of the Adirondack Jour-
nal, I wr ote about the death of Carrie Dor-ing, the much-beloved servant of Mrs. JohnL. Russell, whose summer home in Warrens-burgh, built by her husband after 1866, wasBonnie Brae Villa. It was located behind thepresent day U.S. Post Of fice until it burnedMarch 13, 1980. The barn, which oncehoused John L. Russell’s magnificent showhorses, is still standing. Before Captain JohnL. Russell bought it after he came back fromthe Civil W ar, it was a small farm houseowned by J.R. Berry and Russell r ebuilt itinto a Queen Anne style mansion, the newkitchen ar ea being the original str ucture.Starting in 1934 the house was r enamed“Chalet Swiss” when it was owned by Hildaand Willie Muller.
The Warrensburgh News once describedthe house as “Bonnie Brae, with its impr es-sive backgr ound of mountains, tr ees, mas-sive lawn, curving driveway , bell tower ,fountain and carriage and car port, sportingfive fir eplaces, r ound windows, elegantbarns and expansive gr ounds, the BonnieBrae was a study in local historical architec-ture.” It was a dark day in Warrensburgh his-tory when 60 or so fir efighters fr om thr eecompanies battled the blaze which razed thebuilding at 203 Main Str eet, noted for itslarge bell tower marked with the letter “R.”for Russell. I was there when that bell tower
crashed to the
ground in a mass of flames.Miss Doring, 70, who died of heart tr ou-
ble, was buried on the Russell lot in the War-rensburgh Cemetery. In the July 9 article, Iwrote that she did not have a gravestone, be-cause there was none listed in a grave inven-tory. About a month ago, however, I indeedfound her grave on the corner of the Russelllot at the cemetery under a neat little stonesimply engraved “Carrie.”
Later, I r eceived a letter , fr om Jane Galewho suffered a bad fall and a badly sprainedwrist, and now lives in a nursing home inCohoes. The family originally lived in Troy.I recognized her name as I had seen it manytimes conducting r esearch on the Russellfamily. She is the gr eat-granddaughter ofJohn and Mary Russell, and the granddaugh-ter of their daughter, Mary Russell Archibaldand the daughter of Mary Louise ArchibaldGale. I have Jane’s birth announcement inmy Russell scrapbook. The heading says, “ALittle Gale “ and states that she was bornSept. 28, 1926 to Mrs. Alfred Warren Gale atthe Brady Maternity Hospital in Troy.
Jane Gale wrote that When she was a child,her grandmother Mary Russell Archibaldwho lived in New York City visited her par-ents in T roy during July , and the thr ee ofthem would drive up to Warrensburgh to putflowers on the graves, including Carrie’s.After placing flowers for the family , JaneGale’s grandmother would say , “now let’sput flowers on Carrie’s grave.” Jane Gale’smother, John L. Russell’s granddaughter, of-ten shared her r ecollections of visiting andtalking with Carrie in the kitchen when shevisited her grandparents.
I am honor ed to have hear d fr om JaneGale, a member of a great family whose an-cestors are buried in our local cemetery. Car-rie Doring was a domestic servant for theRussell family for 33 years — and she is nowlisted in the cemetery roster at the RichardsLibrary, as I did it myself.

Letters to the EditorBentley is the man for Horicon
To the Adirondack Journal:Under the leadership of Horicon Town Supervisor Ralph
Bentley, he has taken the town fr om an unsafe, floor heav-ing, out-dated old town hall, to a modern, efficient new townhall. He has also led and played a major r ole in developingthe new and ef ficient much-needed high-technology high-way garage for the town. Residents should be extr emelyproud because this building is second to none. These are twovery high-dollar accomplishments — and yet he still man-aged to keep taxes down.
There was a lapse of time when town Highway Superin-tendent Gerald Granger left office and his replacement, PaulSmith started in the post. During this time, Ralph Bentleyand town councilman Frank Hill stepped up and were at thehighway department every morning with work instructions,but not once did I see Bob Olson, Bentley’s challenger in thiselection.
First of all, I am proud to be the foreman and a town em-ployee and thankful for my job. Over the years I've been in-volved in several labor contract negotiations. Ralph Bentleyand most of the town board members have negotiated withrespect and class, win or lose. W e the employees knew inwinter we probably wouldn't be home for most holidays andhave to work endless hours, sometimes working 30 plushours before getting home. Yes, we do get paid for the time
we work. But when negotiating with Bob Olson for a raisehe told me if I wanted more money, to put my wife to work.Real classy, Bob.
No, I'm not a good old boy — I guess I have only livedhere for 23 years. During the last four years as foreman I havedealt with Ralph Bentley on many highway issues. One thingI can tell you for sure is all residents were treated equal andfair.
Jack Ellis BakerHoricon
Olson has skills, optimism needed in HoriconTo the Adirondack Journal:Fellow Democrats: Each time a local election year r olls
around, we Democrats ar e left out of the primary pr ocess,and seldom do we, or any other voter , regardless of party,get a choice of candidates in the general election. This is noteven a “one party” system; it is virtually an autocracy.
While I stand firmly behind my Democratic principles, Iam delighted that this year we all get a choice as to who willbe our local leaders, and my choice is Bob Olson for the TownSupervisor position.
I have known Bob, Jean and family for some 40-odd years.I worked with Bob on the original Master Plan forZoning/Planning. To be sure, Bob and I don't always agr eeon party ideologies on the national level. However, I knowBob wants what is best for the Town of Horicon, as do I.
Despite rumors to the contrary, Bob is not pushing a "paveover the park" agenda. However, this Town, all its residentsand the tax base could stand sustainable gr owth: smallshops, pr ofessional of fices, af fordable housing, per haps abed and breakfast. We need to keep our young from leavingtown and keep our seniors in their own homes, giving allsome form of recreation and employment.
And if we are to draw visitors to our community, it wouldbe nice for them to have a place to stay a night or two, andsomething to do while they are here.
As event coordinator for Horicon Day 2011, I had the priv-ilege of working with Bob Olson in putting together whatmost would say was a successful and entertaining event. De-spite other comments to the contrary, this event was paid forwith the use of bed tax monies received from Warren Coun-ty.
Horicon needs a zoning code that is enfor ced fairly anduniformly. Also, we need a whole lot less half-tr uths, innu-endos and divisive statements and actions, and lots more op-timism about what the future holds for Horicon. We have abeautiful town, great people, and I believe Bob is the man tolead us into the futur e with that needed optimism andthoughtfulness about what will enhance our town.
Bob needs our help. Together we can do better, much bet-ter! Please look for Bob's name on both the Republican and"Do Better" party lines.

WILL GRAVES, author and international expert, will present the Keynote Address on “What the U.S. Can Learn from Russian Wolves.” An avid hunter, fisherman, and sportsman since his youth, Will Graves, who lives in Millersville, Maryland, started his research on American wolves in 1965. After many years of research in the U.S. and using his linguistic skills in Russia, he completed his book WOLVES IN RUSSIA and is now working on a second book on the same topic.
Restoration of large populations of wolves, with its harsh toll on western communities, agriculture, and wildlife (especially the elk populatio n), is a prized goal of radical environmentalists’ plan to return the Adirondack region and other eastern areas to u ninhabited pristine nature.
ELIZABETH NICKSON, writer and international journalist, who lives on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, will deliver the Morning Address. As restrictions, expenses and delays mounted when she was forced to subdivide her 30-acre forest, she s tarted asking questions about where these ideas originated, and what their effects have been in places not quite as glamorous and trivial as Salt Spring Island. The result was A Soft Place to Fall: How the Environmental Movement Broke the Rural Economy, Drove 50 Million People from their Lands and Collapsed Biodiversit y to be published by Harper Collins US.
EMINENT DOMAIN: Robert LoScalzo, Joseph Ardizzone, & Irene Prestigiacomo, Willets Point United, Willets Point, Queens County, N.Y., will address “Willets Point--A Unique Community Stands Against the City of New York.”
The Afternoon Panel will demystify issues related to “Environmentally Sound Energy for the Future. MIKE MILLER, P.E., Petroleum Engineer, Sr. Vice President, Oil & Gas Div., Marshall Miller and Associates, Kingsport, Tennessee, will speak on “Pros and Cons of Marcellus Shale.” JONATHAN P.

GLENS FALLS — With pr otesters rallied behind hershouting “Jobs, Not Cuts,” Nancy Newbern stood besideGlen St., holding a sign that read: “Support Us Hard Work-ers — Tax the Wealthy.”
More than two years ago, cutbacks at the Glens Falls Post-Star newspaper resulted in the elimination of her job as aneditorial receptionist, she said.
Newbern went back to college soon after to further her ed-ucation, but she’s been unable to secure a job despite apply-ing for dozens of positions.
“I was devastated to lose my job,’ she said, blaming thebanks and big corporations for manipulating the economyand creating the financial crisis. “I’ve run out of unemploy-ment benefits and spent down my savings — I’m sunk.”
Newbern was among several dozen local people demon-strating outside U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson’s Glen Street office,protesting government cutbacks and right-wing policiesthey said are fattening the wallets of the rich while squeez-ing the poor.
The Oct. 4 pr otest was held in sympathy of the ongoingOccupy Wall Street rallies being held nationwide.
As Newbern was waving her sign for passing motorists toread, Susan W eber of Kattskill Bay pr oclaimed to the pr o-testers that failed government policies and corporate collu-sion were making the rich wealthier — and the poor increas-ingly desperate.
“The wealthiest 1 percent in the nation own 90 percent ofthe nation’s wealth, yet the bottom 80 per cent own only 7percent of the wealth — and that is wrong,” Weber yelled to
the cr owd. The gap between the rich and the poor is ninetimes greater than in the 1970s, she continued.
Pumping up the cr owd, Weber said that right-wing poli-cies were harming the area’s economy, as well as in the na-tion’s hard-hit cities.
“The laid-off and unemployed can’t gr ow our economy,”she said, voicing support for a strong jobs bill. “We need toend corporate bailouts — these failed policies have hit GlensFalls — all our businesses have been suffering.”
Neal Herr listened to Weber ’s pleas.“The nation isn’t broke, it’s just misled,” he said.Mike Parwana of Lake Luzerne pr otested that the public
was duped into ditching pensions for 401k plans that plum-meted in value; and that top CEOs, regardless of the billionsof wealth they destr oyed, were paid millions of dollars inbonuses despite their incompetence.
Rally or ganizer Joe Seemen took his turn behind thegroup’s bullhorn and stood behind a caricature of Chris Gib-son: a cardboard cutout of his face stuck in a stuf fed dum-my garbed in a business suit and adorned with signs sug-gesting Gibson is aligned with corporations, not citizensstruggling with the economic slump.
“Chris Gibson, you’ve been standing up for W all Street,billionaires, insurance companies, and military contrac-tors,” he barked. “We need you to represent Main Street, themiddle class and poor people.”
Inside Gibson’s office, the Congressman’s local represen-tative, Mark Westcott, watched the protests and listened tochants of “People Over Profits.”
“We welcome the pr otesters — this is part of the demo-cratic pr ocess,” he said, r eferring policy questions toStephanie Valle, who works for Gibson in Washington, D.C.“It’s encouraging to have this type of public dialogue.”
Rachael Shafer of Chestertown stood just outside the of-fice window, wearing Mardi Gras glasses, a grin and a signthat read: “Freedom is Not Equal to ‘Greedom.’”
“Government cuts take dollars out of cir culation,” shesaid. “We’ve had 30 years of tax cuts to Wall Street, and thatrepresents wealth that goes directly to the rich, and not thepeople who need it.”
Seemen drowned out her voice with his protests amplifiedthrough the bullhorn.
“Chris Gibson, we want you to stand up and put Americaback to work,” he said.
In a phone call from Washington, D.C., Valle said later thatGibson was taking every effort to do so.
She said he’d voted for public infrastructure development,and lobbied to close tax loopholes for the wealthy, while low-ering tax rates for all — to boost the economy and create jobs.
“Chris is working to make the tax rate more equitable, toensure that corporations pay their fair shar e, and to makeour economy more competitive in the global marketplace,”she said.
She continued that a r ecent analysis of Gibson’s votingpatterns show’s he’s not strictly aligned with the right wingor Republicans, but he was one of the thr ee Congressionalrepresentatives ranked as voting the most independently.
“Chris spends a lot of time research, and votes for what’sbest for his constituents,” she said.

CHESTERTOWN — Considering the ac-tivity last weekend at Dynamite Hill, pugowners apparently adore their canine pets.
Many dozens of pug owners and enthusi-asts from all over northeastern U.S. ignoreddismal weather forecasts and turned out forthe 12th annual Halloween Pug Parade &Party held Sunday, Oct. 16 at Dynamite Hill.
Those attending not only participated invarious casual contests and dressed their petpugs up in costumes for a parade, but theyspent time socializing, swapping tales andtips about their beloved diminutive dogs.
The event, which dr ew several hundr edpeople and their pets, included vendors ofpug paraphernalia and meetups betweenbreeders and prospective pug owners.
Darla, a black pug owned by the Dolinfamily of New Jersey, was one of those pugswho was obtained two years ago at theevent. The family has attended for fourstraight years for vacations with their pugs.
Darla was dressed as an Indian, as was herhuman charge Leah Dolin, 1 1. Her par ents,Ann and Chuck Dolin, were dressed as cow-boys, as was their second pug, Biscuit. Lastyear, Darla — garbed as a Spanish Senorita,won a “Prettiest Pug” award. A year earlier,Biscuit won “Most Handsome,” in a surferdude getup. This year , he was outfitted inchaps, a cowboy hat, and a holster completewith pistols and bullets. Another year, Leahwas costumed as Little Bo Peep, and Biscuitwas covered with cotton balls to pose as herlost sheep, Ann Dolin said.
“We’re alr eady discussing plans for nextyear,” she said, noting the Pug Party was
well worth the 470-mile r ound trip fr omtheir home in New Jersey.
“We just wouldn’t miss this,” she said,noting that pugs enjoy socializing with theirown breed.
Local r esident Julie Mof fit and daughterAriel echoed the point. They and their pugAngel were dressed as fortune tellers.
“I absolutely love this event — you get tomeet people from all over,” Moffit said. “It’snot often I get to take my dog out to visitwith other pugs.”
Nearby was Claudia Minor, 10, along withher Boston T errier “Coco,” both dr essed asGeisha girls in tur quoise ceremonial robes.Coco was sporting a traditional black Geishawig. Claudia and her mother Erin Minerhave been attending for four years, Minersaid.
“It’s a great event that we look forward toevery year,” she said. “The dogs absolutelyhave fun here.”
Kelli Dougan of Brant Lake watched sev-eral pugs prance by. Her pug was dressed as“Pugtastic Pirate,” complete with a swor d,buccaneer hat and bag of gold.
“It’s so nice to see community spirit likethis,” she said.
Between announcing various fanciful con-tests to the cr owd, event coor dinator PamMorin expr essed thanks to the Brant Lakeand Chester town employees for their helpsetting up. She also noted that Eric & Ericconstruction donated the tents.
Vendors at the Pug Party were conductinga brisk business on Sunday . A long lineformed at the Pug Cafe, which was raisingmoney to bankroll North Warren high SchoolScholarships.

911 fundsfrom page 1
by the Syracuse Post-Stan-dard.
Irked at the state for raid-ing the 91 1 funds thatshould go to county dis-patch centers for mainte-nance and upgrades, W ar-ren County is now lookinginto joining other munici-palities in a lawsuit againstNew York state so the mon-ey is indeed spent on its in-tended purpose.
Warren County Sherif fBud York said this week thatthe state taking the moneyfrom the public under falsepretenses was shameful, ifnot outright illegal.
“The state is ripping usoff,” he said. “They’re steal-ing this money fr om thegeneral public, and it’s pol-itics at its worst.”
The Warren County Boardof Supervisors asked newCounty Attorney MartinAuffredou W ednesday toevaluate the status of a law-suit that Erie County is for-mulating against the state,seeking distribution of themoney collected — nearly$200 million in 2010 — to thecounties, who equip, main-tain and operate dispatchcenters for police, fir e andambulance calls.
York said Warren Countyalone spends $1.7 millionannually to operate andstaff its dispatch center, andthe state pays only $33,000
or so annually towar ds itsoperation.
That latter sum is a por-tion of the meager 6 percentof the $200 million the stategets from the 911 surchargeand pr esently r eturns tocounties.
New York State 911 Coor-dinators Association recent-ly r equested a state Attor-ney General investigationinto this matter. In additionto being inappr opriate, theState’s raiding of 91 1 fundscould also indeed be againstthe law. The Attorney Gen-eral in T ennessee r ecentlyconcluded that raiding of911 funds in that state wasillegal based on the federalEnhance 911 Act legislationof 1994.

But in a pr ess conferencein December , he said thatNew York counties neededthe money to impr ove andenhance 91 1 capabilities,and that a lawsuit might beappropriate, consideringthe Tennessee decision.
“Every month, when peo-ple pay their cell phone bill,they are being misled aboutwhere the 91 1 sur chargemoney is going,” he said.
Mark LaVigne of the NewYork State Association ofCounties said Erie County’slawsuit was expected to befiled within several months,and it was anticipated that anumber of counties wouldjoin them in the suit.

“The campaign has been a long haul — and I’m certainlyhappy with the results,” she said.
Angell had invested a lot of work in the outcome, contact-ing a good number of r esidents and discussing issues withtaxpayers.
The day before the vote, she lettered campaign signs thaturged people to vote, and she and her friends attached he-lium balloons to the signs and planted them beside local in-tersections to capture attention.
“My friends, family and community came together to ac-complish this,” she said. “And now I’ll work har d to reachthe goals I set during my campaign.”
Angell campaigned on a platform of maintaining or en-hancing the high quality education at WCS as top priority— with an eye on controlling costs.
She pledged to scr utinize expenses, including utilitycosts, for potential savings. She also said she’d work dili-gently to pursue grant funding for ongoing programs or fa-cility needs, so taxes could be cut accordingly.
One of the potential savings, she has said, could involvelining up corporate sponsorships of various pr ograms atschool, like technology.
Tuesday night, she said she was ready to devote the con-siderable time necessary to help make decisions and formpolicy for the school district. Her term was to start in lessthan a day — and this next week, the work on the board be-gins.
The board’s next meeting, set for this upcoming week, fo-
cuses on facilities needs. Board members will be grapplingwith the issue of potential consolidation of facilities, orsharing services and programs with other school districts.
The board will undoubtedly be evaluating options regard-ing repair or replacement of the high school’s roof, which isdeteriorating, school board president Dean Moore said. Thecost to remediate or replace the roof range up to $1 millionor more — an issue that is burdensome when taxpayers aregrappling with the school district’s incr eased fuel, utilityand personnel costs while state revenues are decreasing.
Tuesday, Angell sounded positive about finding solu-tions.
But while some have called for WCS elementary pupilsand high school students to be taught together in one of thedistrict’s two campuses, Angell said such a concept wasn’treally viable at this point.
“With our 880 or so students, consolidating into oneschool building is impractical, considering the specializedcurriculum needs and state mandates on appr opriate classsizes,” she said. “But I’m dedicated to making school oper-ations as ef ficient as possible — and I’ll be taking nothingfor granted.”
Election observers said that Powers’ vote total was sub-stantial considering his relatively few years in town.
Powers called Angell’s home after the outcome was an-nounced to of fer his congratulations. He said later that hewas hoping that she follows through on her pledge to ben-efit the students while keeping the concerns of the taxpay-ers in mind.
“I know that Diane has a lot of good ideas, and I hope shefollows through with them,” he said.

Midway through the third quarter howev-er, Catholic Central r ecovered a Bur gherfumble, and three plays later, took it into theend zone for their only score.
Burgher Coach Mike Leonbr uno creditedhis players’ positive attitude, stemmingfrom their win two weeks earlier over arch-rival Lake George.
“We’re very confident right now — theboys are playing really well,” he said. “We’renot making as many mistakes, and the play-ers are doing all the simple things right.”
Leonbruno said the Burghers are now ex-ecuting plays properly, after many weeks of
practice.“Our coaches can now tell them what to do
— and they do it,” he said. “They’re believ-ing in the coaching staf f, and we’r e believ-ing in them.”
Racking up the yar ds on of fense wer eBurgher running back Kalvin Duell with 124yards, joining the season’s scoring standoutLucas Nelson, who added 89 gr ound yardsSaturday. Each had two touchdowns.Burgher r eceiver Hunter added anothertouchdown with a cr owd-pleasing 55-yar dreception in the second quarter fr om quar-terback Malachai Prosser, who contributed atouchdown of his own and gained 26 yar dsrunning.
The ball was distributed well among a
group of running backs, all of whom crashedthrough the Catholic Central defense to gainvital yardage.
Joining Nelson and Duell wer e Jer emyBarber with nine carries for 78 yar ds, NickNedelcu with two runs for 32 yards, AndrewFish with one r un for 14 yar ds, and ColtOvitt — who contributed a strong defensiveeffort — r unning for thr ee yar ds in twoplays.
In next Saturday’s homecoming game, theoffense is likely to be an interesting show, asMalachai Pr osser, the team’s of fensivesparkplug, is scheduled to be sidelined, anda substitute quarterback — not chosen as ofTuesday — will be calling the plays.
WARRENSBURG — Grueling weather conditions Satur-day, Oct. 15 didn’t stop Warrensburg’s Youth Football team.

John Kelly added two touchdowns, and Jacob Johnsonchipped in another. Trevor Prosser scored on a extra point.
Along with Danny Monthony and Mike Baker, the offenserecorded 204 yards in addition to Shambo’s 182 yards.
The Burgers took an early lead of 24 points, but Fort Ed-ward fought back and made it a competitive contest in the
second half, coach Gary Baker said.“We thought we could just ride it out, but wow , were we
wrong,” Baker said. “Fort Edwar d showed up the secondhalf and really made a game of it — Hats off to them for notgiving up. “
Defensive leaders along with Shambo wer e Danny Mon-thony with 21 tackles, Mike Baker with 15, W ill Schwartzwith 16, Jacob Johnson tallying 1 1, John Kelly with 12, andBrandon Bailey and Robert Shepler each had 7 tackles.

“These kids have given 100 percent at every practice andhave helped this team be as successful as they are,” he said,noting the 5th and 6th grade team finished their regular sea-son 4-2. “I am proud of them and their commitment, and thewhole community should be.”
The playoff schedule has not yet been announced, but Bak-er said he would not be surprised if his team is the top seed.
