War reporter POMEROY, Ohio - Jt was a sunny day on the Union side of the Ohio until four River Confederate raiders on horseback led by General John Hunt Morgan (Darrell Markijohil) came to town Friday morning. At approximately II :30 a.m. they approached from the west, rifles high in the air. Their first target was Parmer's · Bank, a locally owned institution on Main Street. General Morgan approached the bank first. He stepped off his horse, Midnight, and stepped up to the bank window where a frightened clerk stood. He was flanked by two men. Clutching his rifle, one raider watched the scene from horseback in the rear. No one approached. General Morgan ordered the teller to hand over some Union greenbacks. There was no "or else" because Morgan is reputed to be a gentleman even with four loaded rifles nearby. The bag of greenbacks was handed over. A crowd gathered. General Morgan had a decision to make. He could take the money and run or disperse the money among a hungry lunchtime ·populace. Despite protests from his lieutenant Tom Hopes, Morgan nearly emptied the contents of the bag to an elated crowd. Morgan later -said his mis. sion was as much military as it was trying to get sympathy and support from the 2003 Ohio Valley Publishing Co. Grant paves way for purchase of life-sav,ing device.s BY MILLISSIA RUSSELL Staff writer Morgan's Raiders wait outside Court Street Grill for their leader. (Charlene Hoeflich} ) local populace. The raiders next target was The Fabric Shop on Main Street. Morgan and his men tore into the shop and were greeted by a confused clerk. The men took the finest cloth the store offered .'and stole away instantly. In the street, they divided up the booty. The Confederates galloped up Court Street toward the Meigs County Courthouse. General Morgan said he was looking for the mayor, a man reputed to be a Union supporter. With a hangman's noose in hand, Morgan said he was going to make the man take ap oath to the Confederacy or face the consequences. As the men trotted up Court Street, the crowds dispersed. The courthouse appeared empty and Morgan knew he was too late. The mayor was gom~. Hungry, Morgan and his men went into Court Street Grill, a well known water., ing hole. Customers of the bar and grill were stunned as the men took over the place. Miz Rosebud (Jean Hilton) handed Morgan some beef jerky anp a glass jar full of desserts. Mi?. Rosebud runs a local house of ill repute and is known to have Confederate sympathies. Long time customers Gerald and Mary Powell were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Morgan walked up to the front of the restaurant and took a sandwich off Mary's plate. He looked at Gerald and smiled. Gerald said nothing because it is hard to argue with an armed man. Always the gentleman, Morgan put some Confederate money on the Powell's table to pay for the food he took. Gerald nodded his head knowing he and his wife were safe. Please see Raid, AS people.

Pohlman added that there will be safety measures taken when the AEDs are placed in the school buildings.

Correction Policy · Mason County hit with liability coverage increase county property eveniUally led to Mason being dropped by its liability carrier, private Hartford Penco, and going back to coverage by the state in 2001. Gerlach said the problem the 68-percent increase creates is an unexpected expense since Mason's 2003-04 budget was approved by the state in March. " Everyone has the same problem. it's just theirs is not as high as ours," he said. Commission President Rick Handley said the increase also hurts because the new budget is the first in four years to allow pay increases for county employees. but only because funding cuts were made in other areas, such as assistance to organizations and fire departments. Gerlach presented the commission with a summary of liability actions in recent years for study. "My short-term goal is to get through to June 30," he said. lARS Band BDD81118 WIN, $to,ooo Cash ~ Cow 1'atty8ingo 1:1st AnntJai ....,;;;::;..._.._._,...Saturday,]une 7, 2003 1:00 p.m. to 4 p.m.• TM cOw Will enter the Hold at 2:00 p.m. Goltl• Acacl-r Hftth School Memorial Flatd $10.00 Donation AH ~ wttl . . te tiM OMtt ..........._,_to purcn... ~ulpment.

Mosquito concerns Lucas Lane resident James Burgess returned to the commission for an update on how the county will deal with increased mosquito activity. Bur¥ess, who approached commissioners last week about the possibility of spraying against mosquitos, had been infonned by the county health department that money was not available for spraying. The health department has advised residents to protect themselves when outside against mosquito bites. Handley said that information also was sent home with schoolchildren in recent weeks. "The state prefers we don· t spray, especially for anyone with upper respiratory problems," Commissioner Phylli s Arthur, the commission "s representative on the health board. said. But Burgess believes spray- ing is an answer. " Nobody has more problems than I do," Burgess said. "But · they can spray from the top of my house.

NATIONAL ..VIEW --- - o wins? :Bush tax cui tough on econ.om~ good for wealthy • The Herald, Rock Hill, S.C., on President Bu.< h 's tax cut: Two years ago, Congress, at the urg in~ of the White House, passed a $1.3 trillion tax cut , the largest 10 U.S. h1story. Smce then, the unemployment rate has risen to 6 percent, the stock market has remained in the doldrums, most sectors cif the economy are in a slump and the Congressional Budget Office ·forecasts a deficit in excess of $300 billion this year, an alltime record. More tax cuts is the Bush administration's first recourse no matter what the state of the economy. When the nation boasted a surplus during the early days of the Bush presidency, the White House called for tax cuts. Now that the surplus IS a d1m memory, the prescription still is tax cuts. · . · And that is what Congress delivered on a largely party-line vote. Last week. House and Senate Re~ublicans tentatively agreed on a framework for a $350 btl lion, I0-year tax-cut plan .... The lion's share of the savings will go to the wealthiest taxpayers. Proponents of the Bush ·pian gained the support of some skeptical moderate Republicans in the Senate by agreeing to phase in the tax cuts and limiting them to three years. But that' s just an accounting gimmick. Only the most gullible believe that the higher tax levels will be reinstated in three years. :..

The ed itor of The Los Angele' Times, John Roberts, wrote an interoffice memo to his suborpinates last week orderi ng them to 'top putting a liberal 'pin on hard news stories. Roberts cited a front -page report on all eged cancer dan ge rs to women who undergo abortions. Tne story was skewed left, and Roberts called hi s sub-editors oni1. We all know the terrible proplem s The New York Times is having because it's editors imposed a politi cally correct ~tmo s phere at the paper that allowed a minority reporter, Jayson Blair, special treatment.

Patrick Staff report POINT PLEA S'ANT, W.Va. -A brochure dealing with We st Nile virus and mo.squito control has been sent home with all Mason County elementary school students during the last week of school. "Prevention and protection are the main items to remember with mosquito rroblems thi s year," said Jef Fowler, Mason County Health Department sanitarian, who is in charge of the West Nile virus campaign. . West Nile virus is spread by the bite of an infected mosquito. Protecting from bites is important and can be prevented by wearing long sleeves and long pants and using bug repellent containing DEET. Repellent with DEET should be used sparingly on children and washed off as soon as they come inside and should never be . applied to the hands and faces of young children. Prevention of bre.eding grounds for mosquitoes can be accomplished by preventing stagnant water. Empty standing water in old tires, buckets and plastic covers. Change water in birdbaths and fountains at least once a week, if not more often; drain or fill temporary pools with dirt; keep rain gutters clean and make sure win- •' Mason County Health Department school nurses Sherry Russell, RN, BSN, standing left, and Samantha Hoffman, RN, BSN, are shown with Sanitarian Jeff Fowler, seated left, and Mason County Schools Superintendent Dr. Larry Parsons as they review a brochure on West Nile virus and mosquito control.

The mother smiled. The trap was set. ·A seven-man contingent of Union infantry men came from behind and ambushed the General and his men. The General said goodbye to the fair maiden while hastily hoofing it to his horse. Seeing they were outnumbered, the Confederates took flight. Union soldiers fired into the air but hit nothing. After a volley or two went off, Morgan and his men turned to face the Union soldiers . At full gallop, the Confederates charged the Union line which held. The horsemen came within 20 feet of the firing soldiers before they turned the comer of Main and Lynn streets. The raiders then sped away into the noonday sun. Morgan would later say the small raid was a succeS!' because there were no casualties and they carne away with a small amount o.f booty. He even believes he convinced a few sympathizers to come over to the glorious Southern cause. Morgan said he took fligh t only because he was outnumbered, which is the only way Union troops win battles. "I vow revenge," he said. Union private James Oiler planned the ambush. , "We told them if they stop in Meigs County anymore they will be greeted by minibull or bayonet," he said.

It could have been a bad sign for Lincoln when outfielder Seth Williams rolled his ankle during warmups for the Class AA championship game with Magnolia. Instead, Williams turned it into a positive.

Sure, there is the Internet, e-mail, cell phones and o!her devices that we rely on for help. But, such technology often make things more difficult and complicated. Sometimes, all you need is a simple f change to your approach. Here are ' · some ideas for making your life a little bit e,asier_ 1) Record all home information in one spot so you know where it is when you need it. 2) Keep a list of who to call when you need home repairs or maintenance_ 3) Divide chores and responsibilities among all family members. 4) Eliminate clutter. Toss any junk that you don't need. 5) Plan your meals in advance, and stock up accordingly. [ook for coupons and sales. Make one trip to the store instead of three or four to save time. Shop at less popular times if possible (54ndays are often the worst days). 6) If you are short on time, consider having work like landscaping and painting done for you rather than f. doing it yourself. _ 7) Make a place for items you use ~ often such as keys or glasses. 8) Assemble outfits for yourself and the kids the night before to avoid scrambling while getting ready for work and school . 9) Buy stamps at the supermarket, online, by phone or from post office vending machines to avoid • waiting in line at the post office. 1O) Organize your home with whiteboards. Hang one over the tele· phone for phone messages or one on the refrigerator for food shopping lists.
