ChARLES GOODiN Editor NASHVILLE - A local man was sentenced to 18 years in the Arkansas Department of Correction with six suspend- ed Wednesday in Howard County Circuit Court. Michael Chance Hale, 22, received the sentence after pleading guilty to being an accomplice to residential burglary and possession of firearms by certain persons.

The track led to Miller’s barbed wire fence that runs along the south ditch of state highway 27 by- pass.

“There is a certain relief in change, even though it be from bad to worse; as I have found in traveling in a stage coach, that it is often a comfort to shift one’s posi-tion and be bruised in a new place.”
-- Washington IrvingWASHINGTON -- Rep.
Chris Gibson has tested Irving’s theory. Gibson, whose closely cropped graying hair announces his Army pedigree, believes he should be in the Guinness Book of Records for having moved so swiftly -- in 10 months -- from membership in America’s most admired to its least admired institu-tion. On March 1, 2010, he ended a 24-year military career and on Nov. 2 was elected to Congress. This fall, he will participate in perhaps the year’s most interesting congressional contest.
Americans have sorted themselves out politically, so approximately 390 of the 435 House contests will be boring. Just 16 Re-publicans -- Gibson is one -- represent districts Barack Obama carried, only nine Democrats represent dis-tricts Mitt Romney carried, and perhaps fewer than 45 contests nationwide will be competitive. One will be in the 8,000 square miles of New York’s rural 19th district, which runs along the Hudson from about 60
miles north of the Bronx to the Vermont border.
Gibson, 49, was raised in Kinderhook, a few hundred yards from the home of Mar-tin Van Buren, a Jacksonian Democrat who Gibson, a Reagan Republican, consid-ers a kindred spirit. Gibson enlisted the day after he turned 17, but graduated from Ichabod Crane High School -- the Hudson Valley also gave the nation Wash-ington Irving -- and Siena College, served in the Gulf War, Kosovo and Iraq, rose to the rank of colonel with the 82nd Airborne, along the way earning four Bronze Stars and a Cornell Ph.D., and taught political science at West Point.
He entered politics when the tea party impulse was waxing, and he agrees with its adherents about lim-ited government, but favors compromise to get there. “The Constitution,” he notes with a colonel’s crispness, “was a compromise.” And, he adds, Patrick Henry, a tea party pinup, opposed ratification of it.
But Gibson thinks “MVB” -- he refers to Van Buren as if he were a neighborhood
chum -- deserves to be a tea party favorite because he was Andrew Jackson’s sidekick in slaying the Bank of the United States, which they considered an instru-ment for people who prac-ticed the vice nowadays called crony capitalism.
Gibson, who looks for-ward to teaching and coach-ing, has pledged to serve no more than four terms representing a district that Obama, like George W. Bush, carried twice -- in 2012, by six points. Sean Eldridge hopes to give Gibson an ear-ly start on his next career.
Eldridge, 27, is married to Chris Hughes, 30, who bought The New Republic magazine -- founded 100 years ago this year as a voice of progressivism -- with a portion of the fortune he made as co-founder of Facebook. Eldridge, who wants to bring his own pro-gressivism to Congress by beating Gibson, grew up in Ohio, graduated from Brown University, attended but did not graduate from Colum-bia Law School, founded a venture capital firm and went looking for a recep-tive congressional district outside New York City. The first one where he and his husband bought a residence turned out to be politically problematic, so they kept that residence and bought another (supplementing their Manhattan apartment)
in the 19th district.It was said (by John
Randolph) that Van Bu-ren “rowed to his object with muffled oars.” Muted, stealthy politics is, how-ever, not the current style. Eldridge’s investment firm is located in the district and last summer The New York Times reported that the firm had made at least $800,000 in loans to local businesses.
Progressives, being situ-ational ethicists regarding the phenomenon of money in politics, are selectively indignant about the rich throwing around the weight of their wallets. But when progressives say there is “too much money in poli-tics,” etc., conservatives should remain relaxed. Ev-eryone, including Eldridge, should have the right to do what he or she wants with his or her money. Besides, Eldridge will use his money to disseminate his political speech, which conserva-tives should be confident will do Gibson much more good than harm.
As David Winchell , a 60-year-old owner of a roadside pizza and BBQ restaurant, told the Times, “This area is becoming too citified. I would fear that this gentleman coming in would be too relaxed in his views.” The Times noted, “He added, with a disap-proving tone: ‘Progressive is the word.’”
A race worth watchingGEORGE
WILLWashington
Post
Not as bad as expected. That’s my verdict on President Obama’s fifth State of the Union address.
With his approval running well under 50 percent, Obama was not quite so confrontational as he has been in the past.
He conceded that in the last four years, wages “have barely budged,” that inequality “has deep-ened” and upward mobility “has stalled.” No more blaming everything on George W. Bush.
He noted obliquely that “last year the Voting Rights Act was weakened” without explicitly attack-ing the Supreme Court for its ruling that states could not be singled out for heightened scrutiny based on low voter turn-out in the years from 1964 to 1972.
He said he would work with states expanding pre-kindergarten schooling and limited his Republican bashing to the phrase “as Congress decides what it’s going to do.” He noted approvingly Republican Sen. Marco Rubio’s proposal to reshape the Earned Income Tax Credit.
To be sure, many of his proposals were pretty small-ball. He recycled calls for corporate tax reform, port upgrades and high-tech manufacturing hubs. He called for patent reform and savings bond invest-ment accounts.
Contrary to press predictions, he did not harp on “income inequality” — the phrase must poll poorly. The remedies he proposed — raising the minimum wage and continuing 100-week unemployment ben-efits — do pathetically little to address it.
Immigration and gun control got brief, vague para-graphs. His defensive paragraphs about Obamacare evoked as much laughter as applause.
His proclamation of economic progress was nec-essarily tepid. His hailing of America’s approaching energy independence necessarily omitted the fact that his administration has done more to discour-age than encourage the fracking revolution in oil and natural gas.
He was careful to say that solar panel installation can’t be outsourced but of course failed to mention that solar panel manufacturing can be and is — and that his crony capitalism “investment” in Solyndra and other solar firms was a bust.
On issues dear to the heart of Democratic core constituencies, he resorted to outright falsehoods.
Women earn only 77 cents for each dollar men earn, he said. That’s a number that goes back to the 1970s. His own Labor Department’s survey says that when you take account of hours worked and type of work, the number is more like 95 cents.
“Research shows that one of the best investments we can make in a child’s life is high-quality early education,” he said.
Actually, his own Health and Human Services study has found no lasting value in Head Start pro-grams.
“The debate is settled,” he said. “Climate change is a fact.” It is “already harming western communities suffering from drought and coastal cities dealing with floods.”
Actually, temperatures have not increased over the last 15 years, as the global warming alarmists’ models predicted. Perhaps they will over the longer run.
But most people who accept or reject global warming have the good sense to resist the tempta-tion to claim that any recent unpleasant weather — drought, floods, whatever — confirms their view. Obama was unable to resist.
The president spent more time on foreign policy than expected, tacitly acknowledging mistakes. He admitted al Qaeda’s “core leadership” is only on “a path to defeat” and its threat “has evolved” in Yemen, Somalia, Mali and Iraq.
That’s an implicit admission that the failure to get an agreement to maintain some U.S. troops in Iraq has increased the threat — and Obama could only say he hopes for such an agreement in Afghanistan.
On Syria, Obama said he would “support the opposition that rejects the agenda of terrorist net-works” and work with allies to give the Syrian people “a future free of dictatorship, terror and fear.” How?
Iran, he said, was forced to the negotiating table by tough sanctions, but he would veto the bill to add sanctions if negotiations fail — but then would call for more himself. Huh?
The best part was the end. Obama told of meeting Army Ranger Cory Remsburg at a D-Day anniver-sary and then again after he was seriously injured in Afghanistan — and how Remsburg is recovering and determined to serve again.
“Men and women like Cory remind us that Amer-ica has never come easy,” he said, in an eloquent paragraph recounting America’s achievements over 200-plus years that everyone in the audience could agree with.
An excellent end to an overlong speech by an ap-parently chastened and weary president.

115 years ago: 1899Boys who have formed
the cigarette habit are like wormy apples-they drop long before their time. They rarely make failures in after life, because they do not have any afterlife. The boy who begins cigarette smok-ing before his fifteenth year never enters the life of the world. When other boys are taking hold of the world’s work he is concerned with the sexton and undertakers: David Starr Jordan, Presi-dent, LeLand Stanford Uni-versity.

105 years ago: 1909Lockesburg –The safe in
the depot of the De queen and Eastern at this place was blown open by burglars last night, but no money was secured. A hobo who was found sleeping in a box car this morning stated that he saw the robbers, and only two were on the job.
This is the second time that this safe has been robbed during the past six months, but both times there was nothing in the safe to take.
75 years ago: 1939The ground hog certainly
failed to see his shadow in
this section. The skies were heavily overcast all day, with rain falling a greater part of the day. The first snow of the winter fell here Friday morning, and the skies were overcast a greater part of the time since.

50 years ago: 1964Childress School spokes-
men last Monday asked for a greater share of tax money for improvements to their school. Among the spokes-men appearing before the Nashville school board were Robert Coulter, Tom McGee and Ulysses Atkinson.
The school directors asked specifically for a great-er share of the property as-sessments that would pay for the construction of a gym and the addition of a library.
30 years ago: 1984A 15-year-old notion was
dashed this week when al-ligator eggs were found in nests along the soft bank of a pond at the Nashville Country Club.
Those eggs mean that ‘Gator’ an eight-foot reptilian who has ruled the two ponds of the golf course since 1969, is at least a female, if not a lady.
The alligator was cap-tured in 1969 and turned loose in the pond by golf enthusiasts, Jackie and Jim Hockaday and became an immediate hit. Everyone as-sumed that ‘Ole Gator ‘ was a male and generally tried to keep plenty of distance between themselves and the animal. After discover-ing the eggs a club member inquired at the Hot Springs ‘Alligator Farm and learned that the female will lay up to 100 eggs in a nest on dry ground, and will defend the nest even if the eggs aren’t fertilized by a male.
20 years ago: 1994Justin Alexander of Um-
pire High School has accept-ed an academic scholarship to attend the University of Central Arkansas beginning in August. The scholarship is based on ACT scores and class rank. He will receive the Presidential Scholarship for $2,350 per year and it is renewable for four years.

C o n n e r E l d r i d g e , United States Attorney for the Western District of Arkansas , announced that Lee Oli-ver Williams was sentenced Mon., Jan. 27 for possession of more than 50 grams of actual metham-phetamine with intent to distribute.
Williams, age 41 of Magno-lia, Arkansas, was sentenced to 151 months in prison and five years of supervised re-lease.
The Honorable Susan O. Hickey presided over the case in the United States District Court in El Dorado, Arkansas.
U. S. Attorney Eldridge commented, “This case sends a strong message that those who bring crime into our communities and drugs onto our streets will be brought to justice. We remain com-mitted to working together to prosecute such activity in order to keep the residents of Southwest Arkansas and the Western District of Arkansas safe from drug trafficking and the threat of violence.”
“Today’s sentence, which sends a strong message to
those who would participate in illegal drug trafficking, is the result of the efforts of the Game Changer Safe Streets Task Force,” stated FBI Spe-cial Agent in Charge David Resch. “By working together on these cases, we create a “force multiplier” effect in investigating and eradicating illegal drug activity in our communities.”
On April 8, 2011, the Hempstead County Sheriff’s Department made contact with Williams as part of an on-going narcotics investigation.
The officers received con-sent to search his motorcycle and discovered large bags of suspected methamphet-amine in the tool box.
After being advised of his Miranda rights, Williams admitted to receiving large quantities of methamphet-amine for distribution across the Western District of Arkan-sas over the course of several years.
Williams stipulated to pos-session of over 1.5 kilograms but less than 5 kilograms of methamphetamine. Williams pleaded guilty to the offense on September 10, 2013.
This case was investigated by the FBI and Hempstead County Sheriff’s Office. Assis-tant U.S. Attorney Matthew Quinn prosecuted the case.

T h e t o p i c a ro u n d the cof fee shop, farm shops,co-ops and most any other cultured center where the locals gather is a rash of thefts. In Mineral Springs and Nashville, thugs are going through cars at night for cred-it cards,checkbooks or cash. Out in the country, homes are being broken into and being robbed while our elderly sleep. Four-wheelers and riding mowers must be chained and locked or they won’t be around long.
Y’all,either folks are desperate or stupid - and why don’t they fear being shot?
I can promise you, an
intruder visiting some of us won’t get the welcome mat when they come in. What they will get is a trip to the funeral home.
We’re not likely to pull a gun on an intruder and tell them to be seated un-til the cops get there. I’d rather take my chances on walking through the worst neighborhood in inner-city Detroit than try getting by protective
farm dogs only to face the music of a .38 strummed by maestro Don Hall.
If I had my way, we’d hang em high on the courthouse lawn and serve fried chicken while they swing in the wind!
A note to law officials,if any are reading,the public is tired of the crime here in Smallville, and if y’all can’t protect my family and belongings- we will.
Will it take someone dying to stop these losers from stealing from us?
If a citizen must resort to killing a criminal,some of the blame - IN MY OPIN-ION - goes to law enforc-ment officials.

Cattle Receipts: 1087 Last week: 1397 Last year: 880
There continues to be a “mind-separation” from reality regarding the high price of cattle. We cattlemen ease around each other, secretly not believing we just sold 13 heifers weighing 480 lbs for $840 each. Or sold a cull bull weighing 1605 for 74 cents a pound. He brought $1200. Or sold 600 weight steers for over $1000 apiece, or bought 20 bred first-calf heifers for $1680 each.
It is the happiest coffee shop table talk I’ve heard since the Osama went down! The most common com-ment, said with a sideways grin and the shake of the head that I hear is, “Man…I can’t believe it!”
Most of the analysts discuss the drop in cow num-bers as the reason for high prices. But the coffee shop economist is always ready to caution his cronies that it can’t last. People won’t continue to buy it if it gets too high. But, how high is too high?
A quarter pounder hamburger cost $3.00. The cost of the meat patty, I’m guessing, is less than 50 cents. Even if you doubled the price of the meat, making the burger cost $3.50, it would not affect sales much. Especially if the buyer often upgrades to a Big Mac EVM (extra value meal) for $4.95 or a McChicken for $4.34, not to mention a 16 oz Coke for $1.00, a small latte for $1.60 or a medium shake for $1.80 in addition. Where else are you going to get a full meal for less than $5.00…Starbucks? I don’t see protesters picketing fast food places. The USDA (2012) says Americans spend 10% of their income for food. Another 50 cents on a burger doesn’t affect us near as much as a $1.50 per gallon increase in gasoline. And in the steakhouses from Outback to Ruth’s Chris, the cost of the meat is even a smaller percentage of the cost of the meal.
But the statistics on how beef (and food) prices for cattlemen have lagged far behind the cost-of-living increases for other necessary commodities, show we have plenty of room to move up. All the beef that is being produced is being eaten. As price increases, it will still be eaten.
My favorite gauge is to compare the number of fed cattle that it takes to buy a new pickup. I use 1000 lb steers and half-ton pickups to compare. In the 70’s it took 12. In the 80’s it took 16. In the 90’s it took 22. In the 00’s it took 26. In 2013 it still takes 26. For a mo-ment in time, beef is keeping up with the cost of living expenses.
So, for those who can’t accept the justification of increased beef prices as a long-overdue inflation correction, or see the changing buying habits of the modern eat-out-microwave 2014 pop up consumer…then sell every critter on your place and wait for the price to go down.
Me, I think I can take a positive outlook and buy some more bred heifers…’cause, “Man, I just can’t believe it!”
i Can’t believe it!

Nashville – The Scrappers and Scrapperettes teams each suffered losses Friday night against Central Arkan-sas Christian Mustangs and Lady Mustangs.
SENIOR BOYSThe Scrappers began be-
hind with ten points in the first quarter to CAC’s 12. Cameron Alexander made most of Nashville’s points during that quarter, a trend that he continued through-out the game- providing fully 75% of the 24 points the Scrappers scored in the game. He brought in three baskets and a free throw in both the first and fourth quarters, and two more field goal shots in the third quarter.
Brandon Shamrock net-ted one field goal and a free throw in the first quarter, as well as a second free throw in the third. Michael Pettway scored Nashville’s only points in the second quarter with a two-pointer.
CAC’s team scoring was more balanced, with sev-eral players making contri-butions to the defeat they delivered to the Scrappers. Final score was 41 CAC, 24
Scrappers.SENIOR GIRLS
The Scrapperettes kept much closer pace with the Lady Mustangs in the first half than their male counter-parts. Maddie Horton, Tonya Sanders, Shayla Wright and Kassidy Snowden each pot-ted field goal in the first quar-ter, with Snowden contribut-ing a trey as well. Wright and Sanders each added a field goal in the second period, leaving the Scrapperettes just five points behind at the half.

Eggs are one
of the simplest things
found in kitchens around
the world, yet they are one of
the most amazing creations from
nature. Most eggs consumed around
the world are from female chickens, called
hens. The most common type of egg-produc-
ing hen is the Single-Comb White Leghorn. A
healthy hen can produce as many as 300 eggs a
year. The United States produces around 75 billion
eggs a year. That may seem like a lot, but it is only
10 percent of the total number of eggs eaten by people
all over the world in one year! Eggs are an all-natural,
healthy food choice; they have just 70 calories each and
over 13 vitamins and nutrients, as well as a high amount
of protein. Eggs are an excellent breakfast choice because
the protein gives you energy to start your day; eggs are also
a good choice at other meal times as well. An egg consists
of two parts: the yolk, or the yellow part which has almost all
the protein and vitamins, and the egg white, the clear por-
tion which turns white when cooked. The yolk and whites
of an egg are housed in an eggshell. The shells are either
brown or white, depending on the laying hen’s feather
color. Dark-feathered hens usually lay brown eggs,
while hens with white feathers lay white eggs. Eggs
are considered to be quite delicate, but they are
actually very strong. Their arch shape makes
them strong and keeps them from crack-
ing when a hen sits on them so
that they can hatch.

The Howard County 4H club hosted a barbeque this past Saturday on South 4th Street in Nashville.
The group has had the an-nual event for five years now, and uses money raised from the sales of barbecued ribs and Cornish hens to pay for travel and supplies for club activities.
County extension agent Sherry Beaty-Sullivan said that the group sold about 200 racks of ribs and more than 190 Cornish hens, rais-ing about $2800.
Sullivan said that 15 4H families assisted with cook-ing, as well as several corpo-rate partners.
