Photo from the collection of Meigs Historical Society member Bob Graham

This undated photo from the collection of Bob Graham shows the Delta Queen making her way along the Ohio River in Pomeroy. The Delta Queen spent years cruising
the Ohio River, playing its calliope as it passed by. According to the Delta Queen Steamboat Company, “America’s last authentic overnight steamboat…..The Delta
Queen, a National Historic Landmark has been cruising the rivers of America since 1927. After traveling more than 2 million miles, this National Treasure was forced
from service in 2008 when her exemption from the 1966 Safety at Sea Act restricting vessels with wooden superstructures from carrying overnight passengers was
not renewed, despite having been renewed nine times over the 40 years before.” Now, boats like the American Queen cruise the river, with the American Queen making
its final trip through the region for the year this week (the early morning hours of today).

RUTLAND — Rutland
Village Council is asking
voters to consider a 2.0
mill operating expenses
levy as the village continues to recover from past
ﬁnancial problems.
Fiscal ofﬁcer Kim Wilford and councilwoman
Kim Dodd provided council with an update to the
village ﬁnancial picture,
including a 2019 budget.
The village has struggled with ﬁnancial problems for the past several
years, before the current
mayor, council and ﬁscal
ofﬁcer came on board.
Since January, Wilford
and Dodd, who held the
opposite positions until
last month, have worked
to reconcile bank statements and UAN (the
state accounting software) records, as well as
Mayor’s Court payments
for which documentation
was not current.
Now that the ﬁnancial
picture is taking shape,
the village must look for
ways to correct a deﬁcit
in the general fund. The
levy is one of the steps.
The 2.0 mill operating
expenses levy would generate $7,829.36, for the
village operating expenses, including the street
lights in the village.
Council approved the
resolution for the placement of the levy on the
November ballot with the
paperwork to be sent to
the county auditor and
Board of Elections.
In other business,
Mayor Mike Biggs updated council on the pot hole
repairs on village streets.
He stated that $142.85
was spent on material,
with himself and township trustee Steve Lambert completing patching
work which did not
require additional equipment to be brought in.
Biggs stated the ﬁndings for the recovery
amount to be paid to
the village by formerMayor April Burke, per
agreement with the state
auditor, has not been
received by the village as
of Monday’s meeting. The
money is supposed to be
paid back by the end of
July.
Wilford stated she is
currently working on
mailing letters to individuals who owe money
through Mayor’s Court
for previous tickets.
Council approved the
placement of the Higley
Historical Marker in front
of the Rutland Civic Center. The marker, which
was located on the lot
to be occupied by Dollar
General, was removed to
allow for the log cabin
to be removed from the
property.

Twitter suspended 58 million accounts in 4Q
By Barbara Ortutay
and Ken Sweet
The Associated Press

NEW YORK —
Twitter suspended at
least 58 million user
accounts in the ﬁnal
three months of 2017,
according to data
obtained by The Associated Press. The ﬁgure
highlights the company’s newly aggressive stance against
malicious or suspicious
accounts in the wake of
Russian disinformation
efforts during the 2016
U.S. presidential campaign.
Last week, Twitter
conﬁrmed a Washington Post report that it
had suspended 70 million accounts in May
and June. The cavalcade of suspensions has
raised questions as to
whether the crackdown
could affect Twitter’s
user growth and whether the company should
have warned investors
earlier. The company
has been struggling
with user growth compared to rivals like Instagram and Facebook.
The number of
suspended accounts
originated with Twitter’s “ﬁrehose,” a data
stream it makes available to academics,
companies and others

willing to pay for it.
The new ﬁgure
sheds light on Twitter’s
attempt to improve
“information quality”
on its service, its term
for countering fake
accounts, bots, disinformation and other malicious occurrences. Such
activity was rampant
on Twitter and other
social-media networks
during the 2016 campaign, much of it originating with the Internet
Research Agency, a
since-shuttered Russian
“troll farm” implicated
in election-disruption
efforts by the U.S.
special counsel and
congressional investigations.
Suspensions surged
over the fourth quarter. Twitter suspended
roughly 15 million
accounts last October.
That number jumped by
two-thirds to more than
25 million in December.
Twitter declined to
comment on the data.
But its executives have
said that efforts to clean
up the platform are a
priority, while acknowledging that its crackdown has affected and
may continue to affect
user numbers.
Twitter said in April
it had 336 million
monthly active users,
which it deﬁnes as

accounts that have
logged in at least once
during the previous 30
days. The suspended
accounts do not appear
to have made a large
dent in this number,
which was up 3 percent
from a year earlier.
Twitter maintains that
most of the suspended
accounts had been
dormant for at least

a month, and thus
weren’t included in its
active user numbers.
Michael Pachter, a
stock analyst with Wedbush Securities, said
he thinks the purge late
last year may have been
part of an initial sweep
of inactive accounts
that had little effect on
activity or advertising
revenue.

After combat:

What are the challenges of moving from war
zones to the relative safety of American shores?
Do choices differ with each individual? Three men
tell their stories.
Tagged by journalist Tom Brokaw as a member
of the Greatest Generation, Harry Ashburn of
Piqua, a World War II veteran, was a truck driver
in the Philippines, occupied by the enemies of
America throughout most of the war. At times
he was delivering Marines behind
enemy lines, but a scene when he
was delivering food and other supplies stands out for him. It was following the Great Raid at Cabanatuan
Prison on Jan. 30, 1945, where he
observed Allied-liberated POWs who
were physically challenged, starved,
Dr. Vivian and stoic.
Ashburn exited the Army on Nov.
Blevins
Contributing 14, 1945, and returned to his job as
columnist
a sheet-metal worker for the Pennsylvania Railroad. After two months
he, a blue-collar worker from a bluecollar town, decided that college, via the GI Bill,
might be a better option. So it was off to Otterbein University where Professor Harold Hancock
inspired him to major in history. Ashburn earned
his B.A. in 1949, and it was off to a series of teaching, coaching, and administrative positions and an
M.A. in administration from Ohio University.
One of his most satisfying positions was his four
years at Perry High School in Lima, a school with
a mix of rural, suburban, and inner-city students.
He cites an excellent teacher and coach, Leonard
Volbert, as instrumental in the success of that
school. Volbert had been “disadvantaged himself
and understood students from the ghetto and was
able to give them hope, that they could rise out of
their economic limitations.” Other faculty were
of high quality as well and mentored new faculty
in the culture of excellence. Several industries in
Lima were willing to supply funds so that as principal Ashburn could bring in inspirational speakers such as Jesse Owens, Olympic gold medalist;
Wayne Embry, pro basketball player; and William
McKinley, Major League Baseball umpire.
Ashburn’s longest tenure at 19 years was at Bennett Junior High in Piqua, known, according to
him, as “a graveyard for principals, a school on the
wrong side of the tracks.” Ashburn made it a point
to know the names and faces of each of the students from a low of 400 students to a high of 700
within the ﬁrst six weeks of each school year.
Today, when he meets his former students who
say, “You paddled me,” he has the same question
for each, “Did you deserve it?” They all say, “Yes.”
He feels that in penalty cases, it’s important that
“kids be aware of why they are in that situation.”
And he always gave them options: a regular
paddle or the GREAT PADDLE made by the
industrial arts teacher and measuring 2 inches
thick, 9 inches wide with holes drilled in it, and 2
feet long. No miscreant ever opted for the Great
Paddle.
When Ashburn was asked why he retired at age
62 in 1985 from Bennett, he said, “I never got
tired of the kids.”
A veteran of the Forgotten War, the Korean Conﬂict, Benjamin Hiser of Piqua, says of Ashburn, “I
never had a son who went to Bennett Junior High
who didn’t like him: he is kind, generous, widely
respected.”
When Hiser left the U.S. Army in 1953 after
serving as a medic and surgical technician in
Korea, he had a family to support. With a ﬁvepoint bonus on the civil service exam for having
served in the military and ﬁve more points for a
service-connected disability, he became a letter
carrier for the U.S. Post Ofﬁce. After 6 years and
9 months of delivering mail, he joined Mid-Continent Properties, Inc., for 14 years and 9 months.
From the time he was ﬁrst in the military, Hiser
had been earning college credits and graduated
with a B.A. in history from the University of Dayton in 1977. In that year, he became a full-time
student at the U.D. School of Law from which he
earned his law degree in 1980.
He attributes his decision to be an attorney to
his older brother who had also served in Korea
and had a law degree from the University of Arizona. The advice from his brother Harold was that
Hiser should go to law school because he’d make
more money. This, according to Hiser, was “the
only bad advice my brother ever gave me.”
Money was scarce in those early years of practicing law, and Hiser says, “It’s amazing how little
you know. Anyone who came in had an issue that
required extensive research, and the ﬁrst time I
ever walked into a court room, I was so nervous I
almost wet my pants.”
As a member of the Miami County of Ohio’s
Public Defender staff, Hiser reports on his most
challenging case: A parolee, who had served a
lengthy sentence for murdering his mother by
beating her to death with a shotgun, was charged

Of puffins and inner peace

Sitting on Hog Island
overlooking Muscongus
Bay off the coast of Bremen, Maine, an American
goldﬁnch sang beautifully
as I was rereading Henry
David Thoreau’s epic
novel, “Walden Pond.”
For the soul, the combination was almost unfair.
Thanks to a scholarship from the Black River
Audubon Society, I spent
a week attending the
Audubon Field Ornithology Camp, which is home
to the Pufﬁn Project. We
rose at dawn, usually
around 4:30 a.m., and
slept with the sun, just
before 9 p.m.
There was no television
and no radio, which also
meant no politics, not a
single mention the entire
week (except in reference
to the administration’s
attack on the Migratory
Bird Treaty Act), and no
other social nuisances
like LeBron James’ free
agency. It was bird lovers coming together to
share nature — to learn
about the evolution and
ecology of birds, share
conversations about their
behaviors, and see them
in their natural habitats.
It also included difﬁcult
looks at the impact of
humans on the planet
and avian environments,
as well as our role in protecting some species over
others.
The week included ﬁeld
trips to local parks and
reservations, educational
workshops, healthy “family style” meals (you know,
the kind that includes
engaging conversation),
and programs presented
by acclaimed scientists
and writers from across
the country on bird ecology. It also included boat

educational and career
opportunities for those
leaving the military and is
designed to help veterans
realize that the leadership
skills they learned in the
military are transferable
to the civilian world.
College credit is avail­
able and those with a
bachelor’s degree earn
credit toward an MBA.
The next program is at
Antioch University Mid­

and runs from Oct. 8
through Nov. 11.
CEO Hance reports
that “The Catalyst Pro­
gram is designed to help
veterans define their
skills, their passions,
and the opportunities
available to them in the
business world. Coach­
ing, networking, and job
shadowing with superb
employment partners
are components of the
program as attendees
develop their brands.”

British Open’s test has no clear answers
CARNOUSTIE, Scotland (AP) — The eve of
the British Open felt like
cramming for a ﬁnal exam,
a multiple choice one with
no obvious answers.
The wind that blows
off the North Sea across
the exposed links of Carnoustie has not been the
primary concern during
practice rounds. Players
have a reasonable idea
how far the ball travels
in the air. They just don’t
know how far it goes on

Justin Thomas said.

That’s not entirely true.
Thomas hit a tee shot
on the third hole Wednesday afternoon that rolled
across the humps in the
fairway and kept right
on rolling. It looked as
though it would run into a
bunker, or maybe even the
handle of a rake leaning on
the left edge of the bunker.
It missed both and eventually came to a stop 232
yards away.

dry since Hoylake in 2006,

when Woods hit only
one driver all week and
captured the Open for the
third time. This might not
be much different.
“It’s just hard to keep
the ball in play,” he said.
“It’s going to be an interesting test to see which
clubs we’re going to be
using off the tees, and
a lot of it is dependent
on which way the wind
blows. So the whole idea
of these practice rounds is
just to get a good feel for

Texas goes from
compliant to

FRISCO, Texas (AP) — Texas has gone from
compliant to committed under coach Tom Herman, and is winning again.
When Herman appeared at Big 12 media days
for the ﬁrst time last summer, the Longhorns were
coming off three consecutive losing seasons and
he had yet to coach a game in Austin.
“We had a lot of compliant guys, ‘yes sir’ and
nod your head and do what you’re asked to do,”
Herman said Tuesday in his return to the media

(they) believed in their core that the way that
we’re doing things is the only way that you can

33-16 win over Missouri
in the Texas Bowl.

Texas and West Virginia are the only Big 12
teams with two non-conference games against

“We welcome expectations. Heck, you want ‘em

AP SOURCE: ALL-STAR
MACHADO TRADED TO DODGERS
By Ben Walker and David Ginsburg
AP Sports Writers

The Los Angeles Dodgers have won the Manny
Machado sweepstakes, garnering the prized AllStar shortstop from the Baltimore Orioles in a trade
Wednesday night.
A person with knowledge of the deal confirmed the
trade to The Associated Press. The person spoke on
condition of anonymity because the deal has not yet
been announced.
Machado, a power-hitter with extraordinary fielding
skills, greatly improves the Dodgers’ chances of
reaching the World Series for a second consecutive
year. He led Baltimore in batting average (.315), home
runs (24) and RBIs (65).
Machado’s contract expires at the end of the season,
and the last-place Orioles decided against negotiating
an expensive, multi-year extension because they have
too many holes as the team moves into a rebuilding
mode.
Though only a summer rental, Machado was coveted
by a variety of contenders, including Philadelphia,
Milwaukee, the Chicago Cubs and Arizona, currently a
half-game behind the first-place Dodgers in the NL West.
Los Angeles gets a four-time AL All-Star with two Gold
Gloves who has 129 homers over the last 3½ seasons.

ﬁrm and fast … there’s
some guys that will see

it completely different
than the way I see it,
and vice versa,” he said.
“It’s going to be really
interesting to see how it
all plays out.”
Sandy Lyle of Scotland, who won the Open
in 1985, gets it start
with the opening tee
shot Thursday morning.
Spieth, who will try to
become the ﬁfth player
in the last 50 years to
win back-to-back in the
British Open, plays in
the morning side of the
draw.

tially risky, move for both teams.
Leonard appeared in only nine
games for the Spurs last season
because of a somewhat mysterious right leg injury — and the
level of severity was something
that even some of his now-former
teammates reportedly questioned
last season while San Antonio
was trying to qualify for the Western Conference playoffs. Leonard’s health status, even now, is
publicly unknown.
Plus, he can be a free agent
next summer. When he asked the
Spurs for a trade weeks ago, it
was made clear that he wants to
play for the Los Angeles Lakers.
That means the Raptors are entering into this deal knowing that
they could have given up a star
like DeRozan for someone who
might not be in Toronto for long.

From page 6

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — The Meigs football program will be having a team camp/combine for its high
school football players at 4 p.m. Monday, July 23, at
Farmers Bank Stadium. Players are to wear their team
camp gear.

MIDDLEPORT, Ohio — The Middleport Youth
League will be having signups for boys and girls ages
7-16 that are interested in participating in the 2018
fall baseball and softball leagues.
Signups will be held from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. at the
Middleport Ball Fields on Saturday, July 21.
Signups are also available for either teams or individuals.
For more information, contact either Dave at 740590-0438, Jackie at 740-416-1261, Pat at 740-5904941, or Chasity at 740-416-0878.

For Leonard and the Spurs,
there’s ﬁnally closure to a relationship that obviously was fractured
beyond repair and devolved into
a soap opera as the season went
along. For DeRozan, who has
often professed his love for Toronto, the initial reaction seemed to
be one of anger and frustration.
“Ain’t no loyalty in this game,”
DeRozan wrote in an Instagram
story that appeared in the wee
hours of Wednesday, around
the time that ESPN and Yahoo
Sports reported that the trade was
approaching the imminent stage.
“Sell you out quick for a little bit
of nothing … .”
DeRozan did not speciﬁcally
reference the trade in that post.
But his message didn’t exactly
need translation.
The trade is a huge, and poten-

Truex seeking more success after Kentucky win
SPARTA, Ky. (AP) — Martin Truex Jr. is feeling conﬁdent after his most dominant
performance this season.
That’s understandable, considering the defending Cup
Series champion and his Furniture Row Racing team are
slightly ahead of last season’s
pace, with signs of even better
things to come.
“I feel great about where
we’re at,” Truex said Saturday
night after leading 174 laps
from the pole to repeat as winner of Kentucky Speedway’s
400-mile race . “Most importantly, I feel like as a team
we’re getting dialed in more
so like we were last year.
“I feel like we’re getting
closer, getting more dialed in
to what we’re doing, to what
the car wants with the new
rules and things. And that’s

how I felt like we were last
year.”
Truex’s fourth victory and
13th top-10 of 2018 in the No.
78 Toyota Camry are each one
better than after this event a
year ago, though this race was
run a week later. He still trails
points leader Kyle Busch and
Kevin Harvick but cut his deﬁcit to Busch from 120 points
to 110.
Busch and Harvick ﬁshed
fourth and ﬁfth, respectively,
at Kentucky to maintain their
positions. But Truex is serving notice if being the driver
to beat when the playoffs
begin in September.
Truex won his third race
in six starts and posted his
eighth top-four in the past
nine. His mastery of Kentucky’s 1.5-mile layout ought
to boost conﬁdence at the

Teams looking for hitters have options

could be wearing a new
uniform before he plays
another game and other
hitters will be on the
move in the next couple
weeks.
Teams seeking to
boost their offense will
have several options to
land a big bat, even if
they miss out on Machado. The four-time
All-Star is the most
coveted player available
on the trade market,
but the Baltimore Orioles are close to dealing
him to the Los Angeles
Dodgers, according to
multiple reports.
The Phillies and
Brewers were in the
mix and the Yankees
had strong interest,
too.

batting .326 with 16
homers and 63 RBIs this
season. Gennett is a fan
favorite in his hometown
and can’t become a free
agent until 2020, so prying him away from the
Reds might be difﬁcult.
ASDRUBAL CABRERA: The 32-year-old
inﬁelder is batting .281
with 17 homers and 52
RBIs for the hapless New
York Mets. He’s only
played second base this
season but started at
shortstop and third base
last year. Cabrera is a
switch hitter who would
give a team versatility
and pop. He’s also slated
to become a free agent
after the season, so the
Mets can’t expect to get
too much in return for
the two-time All-Star.

EDUARDO ESCOBAR: The versatile

for the Minnesota
Twins. Escobar can play
shortstop, second base
or third base, plus he’s
started in left ﬁeld during his career. He’s making $4.85 million this
season and will be a free
agent in the fall.
WILSON RAMOS:
An All-Star catcher for
the second time in three
years, Ramos is batting
