County considers lawsuit over computerized voting machines

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Warren County officials are considering legal action against New York State to block its pending mandate to use new computerized voting machines that the local officials say are labor-intensive, expensive to use, and vulnerable to hackers.

Monday, county Board of Supervisors Chairman Fred Monroe confirmed that county Attorney Paul Dusek was researching the viability of a lawsuit.

“The ballots are extremely expensive, the computerized machines need to be pampered and are subject to tampering, no one can be certain of the voting results, and recounts take time and may not be accurate,” he said. “The reliability of elections is vital to our democracy — we need to sue over this, we can’t just sit back.”

County supervisors aired their anger Friday over the optical-scanning voting machines that will require expenditures on labor and custom-printed ballots that may total $140,000 or more additional per election — yet may be less foolproof and harder to use than the traditional lever-operated machines, officials said.

The machines, now under final certification process by the state Board of Elections, were the last choice of the Warren County election commissioners among several models under consideration by the state board.

The state selected the machines under pressure.

The state was sued in 2006 by the federal Department of Justice for failing to comply the federal Help America Vote Act, which became law in 2002, and primarily provided for the needs of barrier-free voting for those with physical disabilities.

County officials said the lawsuit they are now considering launching against the state is

Beach tests show lake water purity improved

A Lake George village employee washes down the lakeshore walkway in front of the pumping station/rest room building where a sewer main burst July 5 and polluted the Shepard Park Beach to the extent it had to be closed down. As of Friday, a lingering odor of sewage persisted, but purity tests of lakewater show dramatic improvement.

Beach re-opening is pending

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — Village officials and employees continued to work this week with the staff of Darrin Freshwater Institute and the state Health Department to identify potential sources of recent bacterial contamination of Shepard Park Beach, abate the problem, and reopen the beach to the public.

Lake George Mayor Robert Blais said Monday that recent quality tests of lake water at the beach have shown substantial improvement over a week earlier, which had continued to show contamination above state limits since the sewer line rupture that occurred July 5 at the beach The water purity, Blais said, has improved substantially with test readings very similar to those taken over the past two years while the beach was open. There has been no indication of any remaining sewage leaks in the area, he said.

As of Friday, however, people walking along the beach reported a lingering odor of sewage, although test results were dramatically improved.

The Village of Lake George has examined all its sewer lines by the lake, the conduits within the pump station building beside the beach, and storm drains in the vicinity of the park.

C.T. Male Associates, the Village’s engineering firm, has also conducted independent testing and have found no evidence of further deficiencies.

“Our lines have been inspected by camera and dye-tested, repairs made to the broken pipe, and the readings are comparable to the past two years of operation,” Mayor Blais said.

“The results are similar to other open beach readings taken in 2008 and we expect should be adequate to re-open unless Department of Health’s tests prove otherwise.”

The village also received a report from the Ductile Iron Pipe Research Association indicating the break was likely caused by a pressure differential created to the close proximity of two 90° bends, resulting in cavitation in a pipe lateral. The Village is in the process of taking corrective action by redesigning the pipe configuration.

Girl go-kart racer bonds with dad, wins trophies

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Jordan Hill, just 8 years old, loves her sparkly embroidered jeans, girl talk, dressing up, and shopping with mom — but most of all, the she loves the thrill of racing her own go-kart.

The daughter of Tim and Amie Hill of Meadowlark Lane, Jordan has been racing go-karts and winning trophies for her efforts since the tender age of six.

Friday, she examined a centrifugal go-kart clutch her father was adjusting, listening to his explanation of how it worked.

“I think it’s fun working with my dad,” she said. “I like to win races, too.”

Jordan’s had plenty of success, garnering trophies for winning or placing in competition at Turkey Trot Raceway in Argyle against five boys about her age. Saturday, she took first place in her division.

Friday, Jordan recalled her early-career accomplishments, when she had just finished first grade.

“The worst thing about racing was getting dirt kicked up in my face,” she said.

Apparently Jordan learned quickly that if you pass the competitors and are driving in the lead, you don’t have to deal with eating competitors’ dirt and exhaust.

“The first time I won, it was cool to find out I was the fastest,” she said.

Tim Hill, who also races go-carts at Turkey Trot Raceway, observed that Jordan is proud of her wins.

“She likes to remind me that her trophies are bigger than mine,” he said.

The fun for Jordan isn’t exclusively behind the wheel — it’s fixing up her black, pink and purple go-kart, learning how it works, and helping make repairs, Tim Hill said.

“Jordan enjoys cleaning and polishing her go-kart and she fills up her own tires,” he said. “Then we go spend the day together racing and cheer each other on.”

Hill said his daughter ’s classmates at Warrensburg Elementary didn’t believe at first that she was racing in a real go-cart and winning competitions.

“Jordan had to bring in her trophies for them to believe her,” he said. “They thought she was just talking about those little amusement park rides.”

Tourist railway washout fixed at fraction of estimates

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com RIPARIUS — The devastating washout this spring of Warren County’s tourist railroad has been repaired, and county and railway officials said this week the southern stretches of the system will likely be reopened by Friday.

“The engineering consultant inspected it today, and certification of the repaired track is immanent,” county Director of Parks Recreation and Railroad Paul Butler said Tuesday.

The good news is not merely that 26 miles of the track has now reopened in the Upper Hudson Railroad’s span of 26 miles from Hadley Station to North Creek.

The additional news already cheered by county officials is that the repair was accomplished for less than $5,000 of taxpayers’ money, rather than the $130,000 or so estimated just several months ago. That figure had raised pessimism to the point that some supervisors had turned sour on the railway that the county had worked to develop for nearly two decades.

While the higher estimates called for hiring outside contractors to rebuild more than 40 feet of extensive rail-bed washouts, county Department of Public Works employees performed much of the work at a substantial savings, County Public Works Superintendent William Lamy said.

Also, much of the material washed downstream was reclaimed and reused, and inhouse engineering was used when possible.

Tuesday, Board of Supervisors Chairman Fred Monroe

Paterson nominates Valentino for APA commissioner, Senate confirmation ahead

By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com

Warren County Highway employee Ted Ackley of Warrensburg signals co-worker Steve Ross of Hague Thursday to move a county dump truck forward as the two finish off reconstruction of the county’s rail bed about one mile south of Riparius. In the background are employees of the Upper Hudson Railway, the operator of the tourist train service, which is to resume its southward trips to Stony Creek, interrupted by a massive washout occurring in late spring when a beaver dam burst.

hailed the news of the repair.

“This was great that our county workers were able to do this in-house and save taxpayers so much money,” he said. “We need to do more projects like this with our own labor and expertise in the future, whenever we can.”

Last week, employees of the private Upper Hudson Railroad firm worked with Warren County DPW employees laying gravel, tamping the railbed to solidify it, and aligning the rails.

Earlier, the county had replaced ties and re-graded the earth underneath the rail, which was washed away in late Spring about one mile south of Riparius when a beaver dam breached.

After the reconstruction this

last week, the railway operator ran the engine back and forth to assure there was no sag or lean.

The reconstruction of the railway means the railroad can run intermittent train trips from North Creek down to Thousand Acres Ranch in Stony Creek as in the past, Upper Hudson Railroad operations manager Welz said this week.

In 2008, the firm’s trains ran to Thousand Acres and back on Wednesdays. Welz also said the railway might also host a fall foliage run to Corinth in late September.

Ted Ackley of Warrensburg and Steve Ross of Hague, both county highway employees, accomplished much of the railway reconstruction work.

With other county employees helping occasionally, Ackley and Ross unplugged and replaced culverts, dug a new stream bed with an excavator and redirected the waterway, filled in a series of smaller washouts in addition to the main one, then rebuilt the rail bed which included trucking in countless truckloads of stone and spreading it.

Upper Hudson Railroad paid $7,500 towards the repairs as called for in their contract with the county, Welz said.

“Warren County has done very well with their resources,” Welz said.

ALBANY — Local legislators are now waiting for their opportunity to meet and assess Governor David Paterson’s pick to fill an Adirondack Park Agency Board of Commissioners seat vacated June 30 when Jim Townsend’s 10-year term expired.

July 22, Gov. David Paterson announced his selection for the vacant seat: former state energy guru Francis Valentino.

Dan MacEntee, spokesman for state Sen. Betty Little (RQueensbury) said this week that Little plans to meet and assess Valentino before deciding whether to endorse his nomination.

Although an appointed position, a seat on the APA board requires state Senate approval.

“The Senator is eagerly waiting to meet him,” MacEntee said. “It hasn’t happened yet, but we will make sure it does before the senate goes back into session.”

A Delmar native, Valentino was chosen for one of the three seats reserved for citizens residing outside the Adirondack Park boundaries.

MacEntee said the state Senate is likely to reconvene in early September for a special session. Little and several colleagues will have a meeting with Valentino before the session begins, MacEntee said.

Valentino has served on dozens of state boards, the majority of which focused on energy research and development.

For many years during the last two decades, Valentino was president of the state Energy Research and Development Authority. It was a time when NYSERDA was pushing for upstate industrial development.

He is also a past chairman of the government advisory board to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and he currently serves on the advisory board for the Lighting Technology Greenhouse.

Little’s choice for APA commissioner depends on whether Valentino will approach Adirondack issues with a balance between vironmental concerns and economic sustainability, MacEntee said.

•50 Years Ago – August, 1959• Major changes coming to Warrensburg

W

arrensburg is a pleasant village drawing its livelihood from a number of small industries and from summer visitors, vacationers and winter sports enthusiasts who are captivated by its quiet, easygoing charm. The village began as a stopping point for stage coaches a few years after the Revolution when James Pitts arrived in 1789 and later opened a tavern on the site of the Warren House (now Stewarts’ Shop).

Today (circa 1959) the Northway, the super-highway planned by the State and Federal governments to connect Albany and Montreal, is expected to bring great prosperity to us all. (Note – In 1959, it was a different world — gone are many wonderful old buildings, businesses and more fine people (and a few renegades) than I can count.

We must ask ourselves if we ever received that “prosperity” we were promised.)

Adirondack Northway battle The Federated Garden Clubs of New York are against building an Adirondack Northway. They say that it would mean more traffic of diesel trucks and asks if we want the highway to act as a “wall” to interfere with the free passage of wild life and vacationers. They feel that the project would “nibble away” at the priceless protection provided for our Adirondack forest preserve lands in 1895. (NoteNow, 50 years later, when the Northway is a fact of life, it would seem that there are many deer and animals living on the east side that will never, in this life, meet or mate with those living on the west side of the highway. Also, wildlife advocates and environmentalists have the same concern, and they are now discussing constructing bridges or tunnels so animals can move freely from one side of the Northway to the other.

But state Public Works chief Burch McMorran says that the Garden Clubs “are out of step with reality and have made little or no effort to acquaint themselves with the facts.”

Teenagers visit United Nations Betsey Remington of Warrensburg was one of the four student delegates of the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs youth pilgrimage to New York City. At the Carnegie Building they saw where Henry Cabot Lodge (famous U.S. Republican Senator and historian who died in 1924) once had his office. They than toured the United Nations building where they visited the Soviet Russian Mission. Betsey said the mission appeared drab and pictures of Nikita Khruschev appeared in every room. They were instructed by two Russian officials as to the lives of the Russian people and their devoted belief in Communism. Literature was distributed by Russians who spoke little English. (Note – Do you remember when Communism was the most frightening thing on the planet and fallout shelters were being built in fear of nuclear bombs? It all seems tame compared to what we worry about today.)

To the editor: When it's sunny and dry outside, no one takes the time to fix the roof that we know is leaky.

The state courts are determining whether or not Gov. David Paterson acted constitutionally by appointing Richard Ravitch as Lieutenant Governor, but there is a clear way to fix "the leaky roof" — the flaw in the state Constitution that does not clearly mandate how to fill a vacancy in the post of Lt. Governor. The remedy is passing a state constitutional amendment. I have offered a straightforward bill (A.208-A) that would do exactly that.

The bill I have proposed: • permits the Governor to designate an individual to fill an unexpired term of Lt. Governor whenever the position in vacant; • allows the state Senate and the state Assembly to vote, separately, to confirm the choice, and • eliminates the anachronistic clause that requires a Lt. Governor to act as Governor whenever the Governor is physically out of the state.

The Governor ought to be able to select a person who shares his or her philosophy as an ally in the administration of the state and as a successor. The bill is patterned on the provision where the President of the U.S. may designate a Vice President whenever there is a vacancy in the Vice Presidency. The state Legislature, with each body acting within its own authority, should have the right to confirm that choice, insuring a proper check and balance. The public can view the bill online at www.assembly.state.ny.us, under "Quick Bill Search A.208" Interestingly, I filed this bill in 2007, a full year before the vacancy was created when Gov. Paterson ascended to the Governorship in March 2008. With the added circumstances of Senate gridlock in 2009, the leaky roof experienced a downpour.

Now's the time to make the necessary repair.

George Latimer State Assemblyman 91st Assy. District — Westchester

To the editor: First, I want to thank you for the excellent coverage you have given the Warrensburgh Museum of Local History and the Warrensburgh Historical Society.

More than 100 people came out for the museum opening on July 11. Many said they were amazed and impressed with the exhibits about Warrensburg's history. In spite of that and your Journal articles, attendance since has been disappointing. I will admit there is much we still need to do to get the word out.

The museum collection, accumulated over the past 35 years since the museum's founding, is sizable. Since its involvement in 2004, the Warrensburgh Historical Society has cataloged and reorganized the collection to tell the story of Warrensburg from before its settlement in the 1780s to the present day.

Many of the photographs displayed show ancestors of many of your readers as they worked in the mills that made Warrensburg a thriving community only 100 years ago, or as they played on a local baseball team. Indeed, some of these people are still alive, and we need them to help us identify the others!

Due to our limited number of volunteers at this time we can only be open three days a week Our hours are Saturday: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Sunday: noon to 3 p.m. and Wednesday: 1 to 4 p.m. However, we would be happy to open at other times for groups of six or more. If a church group or other organization would like to tour the museum they need only to call me at 623-2207. I'm sure we can arrange to open at a convenient day and time.

The museum is located in the V.F.W. Building, 3754 Main St., just north of Potter's Diner, and admission is free. We are fully handicap accessible. Our entrance for all is at the rear of the building, where there is adequate parking.

Steve Parisi Director Warrensburgh Museum of Local History Warrensburg, N.Y.

Readers Write: Stockpiling and Internet Coupon Fraud Q: I read your column about stockpiling groceries that you find on sale. How much do I need to buy at one time of something to stockpile it? I'm not comfortable doing bulk buying.

A: "Stockpiling" is a term that many coupon enthusiasts use to refer to the practice of buying ahead of schedule. When we stockpile, we attempt to beat the stores at their own pricing games by buying enough of an item to sustain our household's needs until the next time that item goes on sale. It doesn't necessarily refer to bulk buying but rather just buying more than you immediately need.

If an item is nonperishable or has a long shelf life, buy as many of that item as you have coupons for. Add them to your stockpile, and use them over the next few weeks instead of running to the store for that item.

Here's an example. If pasta sauce is on sale for $1.29, and I have six 75-cent coupons, I will buy six jars of sauce and pay just 54 cents a jar. While my immediate needs for this week's meal would only include one jar, the price of the pasta sauce will likely be back up to $2.99 next week. When I decide to make pasta again, I can go down to my pantry and get another jar, which I bought at 54 cents. I don't need to go to the grocery store and pay full price, because I bought a little more than I needed last week when it was on sale.

When you think about doing this on a larger scale with everything we buy, it's easy to see how we can save in the long term. It's not bulk buying so much as it is buying just a little more than we need in the short term. You will become comfortable with "shopping at home" for those items from your own pantry versus running to the store and paying that higher price.

Stockpiling teaches you to shop on a price-based basis versus a needs-based basis.

Q: One of my local grocery stores will not accept Internet coupons. Why wouldn't a store take them? Should I be wary of using them?

A: While most stores accept Internet coupons, it's true that some do not. Counterfeit coupons have always been a problem for stores. With the advent of the Internet, new problems have arisen, especially when counterfeiters make realistic-looking coupons and post them online. If many people print and redeem the fake coupons, stores lose money because they cannot redeem the fakes with the manufacturer. To avoid these issues,

some stores have issued a blanket No Internet Coupons policy.

Do you need to be afraid of using Internet coupons? Not at all. There are hundreds of legitimate coupons available on the Internet every day. To know whether or not an Internet coupon is legitimate, look to see where the coupon originates. If it is posted on a manufacturer or store Web site, it's legitimate and perfectly fine to

By Jill Cataldo use. If it is posted on someone's personal site or a file-sharing site, you have no way to verify its origin, so you shouldn't use it. If you're looking on manufacturers' sites for coupons in the first place, you won't come across any coupons that are fraudulent.

It's important to note, too, that you cannot make a photocopy of a coupon that you printed from the Internet, a common misconception among new coupon users. Some people assume that because it printed from their printer they can copy it and make as many as they would like. But can you copy a dollar bill? No. And you can't copy a coupon, either. Internet coupons have unique serial numbers and bar codes. While you might get away with passing photocopies at your store, your store will ultimately pay the price when they go to redeem them, since they'll only get credit for one coupon with that serial number.

Minerva Rescue Squad Had busy July

By Mike Corey denpubs@denpubs.com There were 13 calls for the emergency medical services of the Minerva Rescue Squad this July, and the squad was able to respond to all of them (except for one, which came in at the same time the ambulance was on its way to Glens Falls Hospital with a patient). The new EMTs on the squad have been very active, especially, Karen and Greg Wright, who have readily jumped in when help was needed.

With a total of 61 calls for the year, the Minerva squad has been able to respond to all but four since the year began, a positive response rate of 93%. This is an excellent response percentage and shows how healthy the squad is, considering its volunteer nature and small size. Thanks to all members of the Minerva Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad who willingly volunteer their time at all hours of the day to serve their community. If you are not already a member of the department, please consider it – your help and participation are needed and will be greatly appreciated. Please call any member of the Minerva volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad if you would like to learn how to get involved.

Swimmer injured in Schroon Lake SCHROON LAKE — On July 30 at 7:35 p.m., the Essex County 911 Center in Lewis received a report of a subject being seriously injured as a result of a boating accident in Schroon Lake, New York.

New York State Police personnel responded to Schroon Lake where they located Timothy F. Flaherty, 49, of New York City, New York. Flaherty had been swimming alone in open water without a flag or buoy, when he was struck by the propeller of a passing 21 foot motor boat operated by David R. Rineer, 20, of Hatfield, Pennsylvania. Rineer heard the collision and observed Flaherty injured in the water. Flaherty was assisted into the boat and transported to shore by Rineer and other occupants of the boat. Flaherty suffered from multiple lacerations to his body and arm.

Flaherty was stabilized at the scene and airlifted by a New York State Police Helicopter to the Fletcher Allen Health Center in Burlington, Vermont where he is listed in stable condition.

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — New Yorkers now have a new tool at their disposal to spark change in local and state government.

During a press conference held at Plattsburgh Town Hall July 25, state Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo unveiled the state’s new Web site, www.reformynygov.com. The purpose of the Web site, said Cuomo, is to give New York residents an overview of the number of governments in the state and to motivate discussion about what changes, if any, are needed in government.

The Web site, Cuomo explained, was created in support of the New York Government Reorganization and Citizen Empowerment Act, signed into law June 25. The new law streamlines procedures for consolidating local governments and, if needed, empowers citizens to initiate the local government consolidation or dissolution process by petition.

“If the local politicians don’t do it, it makes it easier for the citizens to actually put it on the ballot and vote on it,” Cuomo said. “I believe the citizen empowerment option is going to create an energy that makes the local officials really look at this issue seriously.”

According to figures presented by Cuomo during the press conference, there are 10,521 different forms of government within New York State. The governments include counties, cities, towns and villages, as well as lighting, sewer, water, drainage, refuse, park, school, fire, fire protection and other special districts.

“That means every morning when you wake up, that’s 10,521 light switches, 10,521 payrolls, 10,521 fleets of cars, 10,521 offices,” said Cuomo. “Every morning, it’s that overhead and we’ve been adding more and more governments as we go along.”

“We have parts of the state where we’re losing people, and we’re adding governments,” he added. “This is the issue.”

The Reform New York Web site features an interactive map that lists the number of governments within each of the state’s 62 counties. Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties are within the median range with 143, 134 and 136 local governments, respectively, though there are counties of similar geographic size and population above and below those numbers.

“It shows there is no rhyme or reason to how many governments exist in any given county,” Cuomo said of the Web site map.

Erie County in western New York tops the list with 1,044 forms of local government and is a county with “real economic issues,” said Cuomo.

Though there is much “fat” that can be trimmed in statelevel spending, he continued, much of the problem lies with an overabundance of local government. The cost of operating those governments is responsible for higher taxes, including property taxes, he said.

“You’re not going to reduce the taxes until you reduce the governments,” said Cuomo. “We can’t continue to pay the operating costs for these governments.”

State Sen. Elizabeth O’C. Little, R-Queensbury, agreed. The senator co-sponsored the bill for the New York Government

Reorganization and Citizen Empowerment Act in the Senate, which was overwhelmingly passed with bipartisan support in both the Senate and the Assembly.

“This legislation empowers people to streamline government,” Little said of her reason for being a staunch supporter of the bill. “It gives people the opportunity to really make their government take a look at how they could be more efficient. It improves efficiencies while maintaining services and it’s main goal, to lower taxes through shared services, is achievable.”

The consolidation of government services is something that has been under discussion for some time, said state Assemblywoman Janet L. Duprey, R-Peru. During her more than 30 years previously spent serving local government, consolidation and shared services were always issues on the table.

“I think we need to look at it,” Duprey said of shared services and consolidation. “I think there are some areas where we’ll find it will be a good fit and there will be some where it probably will not. But, the discussion certainly has to start.”

Duprey joined Little and Cuomo in applauding local governements that have already begun sharing services, including intermunicipal agreements between highway departments for projects such as road paving.

“That’s been going on for years and years and I think we just need to look at more of that,” said Duprey.

Under the Government Reorganization and Citizen Empowerment Act, there is no state mandate or language in the law that requires any action to be taken by taxpayers, said Cuomo. However, the attorney general said he hopes this will give them the motivation to make up their own minds about the efficiency of government in New York State.

“If you like the situation you’re in, if you like the taxes you’re paying, if you can’t imagine a better scenario than you’re current scenario, do nothing,” said Cuomo. “But, if you want to find a way to reduce taxes, if you want to find a way to start a discussion about how did we get here, how did these governments develop in the first place and where can we find some economies of scales, this is the vehicle to do it.”

CHESTERTOWN — The town of Chester, Hyde Township, was set off from Thurman, owned by John Warren Thurman, on March 25, 1799, 14 years before neighboring Warrensburgh became a town. Before 1772, when Township 24 of Totten and Crossfield’s purchase was recorded on a map, what is now the town of Chester was just a great unexplored wilderness. Later, land speculators who purchased land there never saw the place.

In the beginning this unique little village was originally called South Gore and then Chester Four Corners or simply Four Corners. In later years some called it Chester and the post office, established there about 1808 on the site of the Rising House, called it Chestertown so as to not confuse it with Chester in Orange County. Thurman Historian Robin Croissant said that in 1799, forty men and their families made up almost the entire population of Chester which spans 89 square miles.

The earliest buildings were two log taverns, owned by B. Eaton. Most of the details of the early history of the town are probably in obscurity, as almost all the records were de-

In 1800, Chester had 508 inhabitants and by 1805 crude roads were opened through the virgin forest, but most travel was done on the Schroon River. Brothers Norman and Alanson Fox were involved in the lumber trade, the area’s money crop, as early as 1809 and they used the river to transport their branded logs to market. Small game and deer, bear, wolves, panthers, mountain lions (cougars), lynx (bobcats) and catamount were plentiful. Rabbit, partridge and venison were a main part of the diet of these early settlers.

Animal pelts brought 15 cents each and money was scarce.

Pelts were often used for barter.

Chester pioneers hardy, resolute Landon Hill was named for M.B. Landon, who ran a tavern at the foot of the hill, probably about where the big yellow house is now that once belonged to the late town co-historians Thomas and Jane Parrott.

History From page 10 Road, is Martin Wightman who died in 1796 at the age of 1year, 8 months and 2 days. He probably didn’t get his stone until after stone cutters arrived in 1805 to ply their trade. Martin is buried beside his mother, Polly Wightman who died in 1860.

Her epitaph says, “She went down to the grave like a sack of corn fully ripe.” In the same cemetery, stone cutters recorded the fate of Polly’s brother, blacksmith Obadiah Knapp, 42 and also Sylvester Carpenter, 26 — who both died “suddenly” by trees falling on them.

Volumes could be written about the hardy pioneer men and women who labored over the years to tame the Adirondacks and see it become fruitful. The first name to be recorded in Chester history should be William Bond, the man who owned the land. Bond was born in 1740 in England and in 1760 he came to Westchester County. He secured a 500-acre land grant in 1784, in the area that was later to become Warrensburgh and he settled near Bond’s Pond, now Echo Lake. It is believed that he died before Warrensburgh became a town in 1813.

Tripp family prominent in local history Bond’s daughter married the son of Peleg Tripp of Warrensburgh. Bond bought a large tract of land which later became Chester village and he might have moved there. Further mention of him has vanished

from history, although as late as 1832 there is a William Bond listed in South Gore, which would later become known as Chestertown. Bond’s grandson, born in 1816 in Warrensburgh, was James L. Tripp, a farmer who married Phoebe A. Palmer in 1845 and they settled in Chester in 1846.

Phoebe Tripp had two known children, Hiram and Josephine and possibly a baby named Mariah born in 1849. By 1850 there were 1,850 people living in Chester and in December of that year, after only five years of marriage, Phoebe, 22 years old, died of “diarrhea.” Another family member, Ann Tripp, 66 of Warrensburgh, according to the records, died about the same time of “putrid sore throat.”

James Tripp later married Dorathea Mills and they had two sons, Isaac and Thomas Tripp. The Bond and Tripp combined bloodline went on to become a Chester dynasty in their time and Tripp Lake was probably named for patriarch Peleg Tripp.

Many members of the Tripp family are buried in the cemetery next to where the burned West Church once stood. It was built in 1830 and again in 1867, south of state Rte. 9.

A history of Chestertown would not be complete without mention of Rev. Jehiel Fox, who is credited as the founder of Chestertown. This good man gave everything he had to the Lord. He was a circuit rider preacher who tirelessly traveled the untamed Adirondack wilderness, preaching to one and all. A Baptist, he established his church in Chester in 1796 and an edifice was built in 1810. He preached regularly in Warrensburgh back when the area was called “The Bridge.” To earn a living, Fox

established and operated a grist mill in South Gore (Chester) in 1799, back when George Washington was president.

Many steered Chester’s development Moving on to 1813, the first recorded town supervisor was Seba Higley and today, in 2009 attorney Frederick Monroe has that honor.

Other Chestertown notables through the years are pioneer abolitionist Joseph W. Leggett and his son Benjamin F. Leggett; photographer Itsuzo Sumy; editor Jeanne Robert Foster; poet Katherine Carpenter, known by her pen name Kay McKay; hoteliers Albert Thieriot and Harry S. Downs; historians Caroline Fish, Philip Sullivan and Arthur Moffitt; outstanding supervisors John Wertime, Spencer LeFlure and Howard B. Swan. Another notable is longtime hotel operator Tom Carroll, owner since 1957 of the Panther Mountain House, who died June 24, 2009.

Old David Culver, born in 1758, was buried in 1848 on Thieriot Ave. many years before he was dug up again and transported to his new site in the Leggett Cemetery.

John Butler Yeats, Irish painter and writer and father of famous poet William Butler Yeats, is buried nearby in the Chestertown cemetery. The history of the Rising House and Down’s Hotel could fill a volume. More people with more stories will go on indefinitely in Chestertown until the sun grows cold.

APA legislation fails to garner Assembly support denpubs@denpubs.com ALBANY — Three bills proposed by the Adirondack Park Agency failed to garner support from state legislators and have not seen the floor of the State Assembly because no sponsor for the bills could be found, APA officials said recently. The lack of support leaves agency officials scrambling to rework the bills in time for the next legislative session.

APA Board of Commissioners Chairman Curt Stiles blamed old biases for lack of support from Adirondack area legislators.

“These bills have nothing to do with the environment,” Stiles said. “They were about the fabric of the park and how the agency does business.”

The three bills included a measure that would increase the number of structures permitted in moderate- and

low-intensity zones to allow the construction of affordable housing. This legislation would allow up to four structures to be built on a lot that would typically only support one, provided they share a common septic system.

The lack of affordable housing in the Adirondacks has for decades been a primary agenda item for local government officials, who argue that low wages combined with soaring property costs are pricing year-round residents out of the housing market.

The second bill would set up a fund meant to be used

by Adirondack towns and villages for planning or zoning studies and the creation of comprehensive or master plans.

According to APA legal counsel John Banta, the funds would be raised through surcharges attached to building permit applica-

tions.

The third bill would change the way to agency does business, officials said.

It would expand the amount of time the agency has to review a proposed project from 60 to 90 days and in some cases no longer require public hearings to be held, provisions that have concerned some Adirondack landowners.

But APA officials stress that an applicant could still request a hearing.

According to APA spokesman Keith McKeever, the third bill would streamline the permitting process and allow the agency to give every potential building project its due diligence.

But for local Assemblywoman and ranking Republican on the Environmental Conservation Committee Teresa Sayward, the implication that public hearings could potentially be circumvented left her with no

choice but to not sponsor the bills in their present form.

“The bills weren’t in the shape we would have liked them to be,” Sayward said.

“There were some things that needed to be changed – the public hearing provision for one – and I expect to see them again very soon with some of these changes made.”

Sayward said that Adirondack residents often feel that their opinions are ignored by state agencies.

“There has always been a bone of contention in the Adirondacks among the local people that their voices aren’t heard,” she said. “We thought it best to move all three bills together instead of in pieces.”

The planning fund and affordable housing initiatives have gained the support of the Adirondack Local Government Review Board, but the Agency Streamlining Bill has some local officials concerned.

APA officials said they expect the bills to be reintroduced in the fall legislative session after some revisions are made.

Senate gets back to work, passes new rules reducing leaders’ power

By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com ALBANY — In the wake of the recent political power struggle and legislative gridlock, the state Senate approved inhouse rules reform measures recently that members say will empower the Senate membership by reducing control wielded by party leaders.

Because of the reform vote, senate leadership will no longer have the power to prevent bills from reaching the floor, which officials said was the driving force behind Senator Espada’s temporary exodus from the Democratic Party, leading to a 3131 split in the Senate and a five-week stalemate.

State Sen. Betty Little (R-Queensbury) lauded the measure as re-empowering state senators — and as progress in restor-

ing the senate’s tarnished reputation among New York residents.

“The reforms we past last night will actually make the Senate less dysfunctional and more efficient as it empowers members to bring bills to the floor,” she said. “When a bill is in a committee for a number days, now 38 members can agree to bring that issue to the floor whether the leadership wants it or not.”

The bill states that regardless of the will of the senate leadership, if a proposed measure has remained in committee for 45 days it can be moved to the floor if 38 senators back the legislation.

Little said this rule change represented a major step forward in building bi-partisanship and making sure that political power struggles are unlikely to bring the State Senate to

a halt again in the future. ”I think this is going to increase bi-partisanship,” she said, adding that cooperation is likely because a group of senators, regardless of party affiliation, can move bills to the floor without the consent of the leadership.

Little criticized downstate Senators for pushing through New York City Mass Transit Authority funding legislation, on what she called the backs of upstate taxpayers.

But regardless of differences of opinion or geography, for Little the goal is to regain the respect of the constituents of the State of New York following all of the fallout surrounding the stalemate. ”I am glad it’s over,” she said. “It was very frustrating and damaging to the Senate as an institution and as to what people consider us to be — because so much of it seemed to be just games.”

Police Reports

Swervy driving leads to DWI arrest

Swimmer injured in Schroon Lake SCHROON LAKE — A downstate man was injured in a boating accident June 30 on Schroon Lake, authorities said.

At 7:35 p.m., last Thursday, the Essex County 911 dispatch center in Lewis received a report of a subject being seriously injured as a result of a boating accident on the lake, police said.

State Police personnel responded to Schroon Lake where they located Timothy Flaherty, 49, of New York City. Flaherty had been swimming alone in open water without a flag or buoy when he was struck by the propeller of a passing 21-foot motor boat operated by David R. Rineer, 20, of Hatfield, Pa., authorities said. Rineer heard the collision and observed Flaherty injured in the water, state Police said. Flaherty was assisted into the boat and transported to shore by Rineer and other occupants of the boat. Flaherty suffered from multiple lacerations to his body and arm.

Flaherty was stabilized at the scene and airlifted by a state Police Helicopter to the Fletcher Allen Health Center in Burlington, Vermont where he was listed in stable condition last Friday.

LAKE GEORGE — At about 2:30 a.m. Monday, Warren County Patrol officers John Howse and Adam Spinelli observed a 2003 Chevrolet Impala being operated erratically on state Route 9. The vehicle’s driver committed several traffic violations including failing to signal a turn, failing to maintain the proper lane of travel, and unsafe backing.

Howse signaled the driver to stop when the sedan made an abrupt left-hand turn from state Rte. 9 onto Old Military Road, overshooting the turn and nearly colliding with the guide-wires south of the intersection, police said. The operator then put the car into reverse and began backing in the direction of the police cruiser stopped directly behind her.

This action prompted Howse to take evasive action and back up as well to avoid a collision. The vehicle was eventually stopped on Old Military Road.

The officers then arrested the driver, Jacqueline Ruth Lyons, 40, of Old Military Road, on a charge of Driving While Intoxicated. Her breath test results showed her bloodalcohol level to be 0.10 percent. Lyons was released to appear in Lake George Town Court Aug. 20.

Traffic violations in village prompt DWI arrests

Driver faces charge after leaving crash scene LAKE GEORGE — A Queensbury man is facing a felony Driving While Intoxicated charge after police say he struck a motorcyclist Monday then fled the scene.

The crash occurred on state Rte. 9 when Larry J. Hayes, 30, of Queensbury made an unsafe lane change with his 1994 Chevrolet pickup truck into a lane occupied by a motorcycle, police said. Hayes’ actions caused the motorcyclist to lose control and swerve off the roadway, authorities said.

The motorcycle was operated by Donald LaPointe, 48, of Winsted, Ct. His passenger was Ronda Capitanio, 42 of Torrington, Ct. Both sustained injuries as a result of the crash and they were transported by Lake George Emergency Medical Services to Glens Falls Hospital.

Hayes was located shortly after the accident on I-87 Southbound in the Town of Queensbury, and police determined he was determined that he was intoxicated. Hayes was charged with felony DWI as he had two prior convictions within 10 years. The incident was investigated by Warren County Sheriff’s Patrol officers J.M. Wittenberg and R.M. Swan.

Crash leads to drug and DWI arrest CHESTER — A Latham man was arrested on a DWI charge and a violation of Unlawful Possession of Marijuana after he struck a tree before dawn Sunday.

William G. Waldron, 25, was southbound on State Route 28N at about 3 a.m, when he failed to negotiate a corner, according to the Warren County Sheriff's Office. He then crossed the northbound travel lane and struck a power pole. Waldron was found to be intoxicated shortly after the crash, police said.

Waldron suffered minor injuries and was transported to Glens Falls Hospital by volunteers of Johnsburg Emergency Medical Services.

Waldron was charged with Driving While Intoxicated and Unlawful Possession of Marijuana. The case is being handled by the Town of Chester Court.

The North Creek Fire Department assisted at the scene. The arrest was made by county Patrol Officer Jeremy Coon.

LAKE GEORGE — Three men were arrested on DWI charges in separate incidents recently after they were stopped for committing traffic violations, police said.

Matthew J. Marinelli, 26, of Canada St., Lake George was arrested at about 4:30 a.m. a week ago Sunday on a charge of Driving While Intoxicated after he ran a stop sign with his 2008 Mazda at the intersection of Mountain Dr. and Old Post Rd. Sobriety test results showed Marinelli had a 0.12 percent blood alcohol content. Marinelli is due in Lake George Town Court 9 a.m. Aug. 6 to answer the charges. The arrest was made by Patrol Officer Jeremy Coon and John Howse.

The prior day,, county patrol officer Jeremy Coon stopped a 2006 Dodge SUV weaving as it drove down Canada Street at about 4:15 a.m. without headlights on. Arrested was Robert M. Doscher, 21 of Levittown, NY, on charges of DWI, failing to submit to a pre-screen breath test, operating without headlights, and failing to drive in one lane of travel. A test of Doscher ’s breath showed an alcohol level of 0.14 percent. Doscher was released and instructed to answer charges in Lake George Town Court.

A week ago Friday at about 3 a.m., patrol officer Coon stopped a 2008 Mazda on Canada Street for driving without its headlights on and failing to maintain its lane of travel.

After the driver, Brandon A. Hone, 21, of New River, Ariz. tested 0.13 breath alcohol level on a sobriety test, he was arrested on a charge of Driving While Intoxicated. He submitted a breath sample which yielded a .13 of 1 percent blood alcohol level. Hone was released, and told to return to Lake George Court.

Sparring couple arrested on DWI charges BOLTON — At about 4:40 a.m. July 17, the Warren County Sheriff ’s Office was dispatched to a disturbance outside a vehicle on the East Schroon River Rd. When patrol officers arrived, they located a 1994 Pontiac passenger car that was involved in a previously reported domestic incident. Patrols had been unable to locate the vehicle beforehand.

LAKE GEORGE — At about 12:20 a.m. on July 11, Warren County Sheriff ’s patrol officer Jeremy Coon stopped a 2000 Ford pickup truck on Canada St. in Lake George for weaving between lanes and failure to signal.

Coon then arrested Lacourse, 39, of Winter Haven, Fla. on a charge of Driving While Intoxicated and Aggravated Unlicensed Operation. He was processed and held in police lockup for lack of bail until arraignment, which followed the next day.

SATURDAY August 8, 2009

From page 1

DMV From page 1 and opened recently due to a new influx of customers, most likely due to the first wave of eight-year driver ’s licenses coming due for renewal since the state law provided for these longterm permits, Warren County Clerk Pamela Vogel said Monday.

This upsurge in licensing business will continue in the coming years as the deferred renewals roll over each year, she said as Welcome Desk Clerk Cindy Derrickson took care of one customer ’s questions after another.

And in the back room Monday, the answering machine was doing its work, automatically giving out basic DMV information, then recording inquiries.

The DMV staff, Vogel said, attends to the questions left on the answering machine daily during slow periods, and calls each phone customer back before the end of the shift, if at all possible.

“We receive six to seven thousand calls per month, and this is our way of servicing these customers and meeting their needs,” she said. “This seems to be the best way.”

This week, county supervisors praised Vogel and the team at the county Department of Motor Vehicles for their new efficiency upgrades.

Hal Payne agreed.

“The state is just out of control,” he said.

Monroe said the county is considering joining other counties in a lawsuit, based on research performed by the statewide Election Transparency Coalition, a non-partisan group that is advocating keeping the traditional machines.

Many counties, including neighboring Essex and Washington counties, have approved resolutions opposing the pending de-certification of the lever-operated machines.

But the state’s Election Reform and Modernization Act prohibits the use of the old voting machines once the state Board of Elections certifies the new computerized machines.

based on the argument that the state has now complied with the federal law to accommodate barrier-free voting, but to mandate opticalscan machines for all voters statewide compromises the voting process, is prohibitively expensive, and may produce inaccurate results.

With this voting system, to be launched beginning 2010, voters black out small outlines like students do on standardized tests. They use a ballot that is custom-printed for their voting district.

The ballot is then fed into a reading machine, which is intended to record and tabulate the results.

Any close election, according to county election commissioners Mary Beth Casey and Bill Montfort, would be subject to a recount.

Any recount, they warned supervisors, would be labor-intensive and costly.

Casey said that in a recent voting test in Oswego County, a mere test audit took 907 hours man-hours, costing about $10,000 in labor.

“It took 90 minutes for every 100 ballots, and this was an audit, strictly counting the ballots, and not a recount or a recanvass, which could cost three times as much,” she said.

These more stringent processes, she said, when implemented in Warren County, could take 44 people a full work-week to perform their work at $10 or more per hour, she said.

Purchasing the 88,000 or more custom-printed ballots needed per election would be costly, Montfort said, not-

ing the additional cost of securing and storing the ballots, both filled out and blank, for several years.

Pending state policy would require that after each election, county election officials must randomly pick 3 percent of all the ballots and perform an audit, and if the hand-count and examination didn’t mach the computer results exactly, a full audit of all ballots would be necessary for every machine in every district.

Queensbury at-large supervisor David Strainer said Friday the pending system was a potential crushing burden to the state’s counties, as well as frustrating to the voters, because the new machines are not easy to use.

“This new system will disenfranchise voters, who are likely to stay home and not vote,” he said. “The machines are untested, unreliable, subject to tampering, and they take excessive time and money.”

Monroe noted that the voting machines will need to be stored in a climate-controlled secured facility, which may cost $2 million for Warren County to build.

Also, they’ll need periodic inspection, plus software maintenance and upgrades.

Plus, they’ll have to be delivered back and forth to poll sites at considerable expense, while the existing lever-operated machines are now stored on-site by the individual municipalities, he said.

“This proposal is just incredible,” Monroe said. “It’s crazy.”

SATURDAY August 8, 2009 kids won’t have to skip school to go fishing in the future and maybe flippin’ sticks will replace lacrosse sticks in gym class.

Once you get over the unlikely prospect of a student lettering in bass fishing or getting a scholarship to fish for some Division I school, consider this: Bass fishing already has become a recognized high school activity in Illinois.

And a group of fishermen in the bass-rich Ozarks are pushing for the sport to gain the same status in Missouri.

“I know I would have had more interest in school if there had been a bass fishing team,” said John Neporadny of Lake Ozark, Mo., a nationally known outdoors writer. “This has the potential to bring in a whole new group of kids who hadn't been involved in sports before.”

The concept already has been endorsed in Illinois, the first state to offer bass fishing as a state-sanctioned highschool activity. This spring, 214 of the 775 Illinois high schools will compete in a tournament series to determine a state champion.

A gym class for bass

nthony was small for his age and although he was a good athlete, by the time he got to high school he couldn’t run as fast, jump as high, or throw as hard as his classmates.

After he transferred to a local prep school, he played varsity soccer for his fall sport but was unsure of what he would do in the spring. He didn’t have many alternatives, it was either golf or tennis.

His father was a guest of mine and we had fished together for many years. Anthony had always accompanied him on the journeys north and by the time he was a teenager, Anthony was a proficient flyfisherman.

As the spring semester approached, Anthony sought an alternative to the usual team sports. He looked into paddled sports, biking and trail running. I offered to help in any way I could. Finally, after consulting with the school’s athletic director, I agreed to serve as Anthony’s angling coach.

Rather than play varsity golf or tennis, Anthony decided to take up flyfishing as his spring sport. He was the only athlete in the school to approach the playing field without wearing spikes or tennis whites. Anthony’s preparation involved tying flies, prepping his leaders and patching his waders before game day.

The spring semester was consumed with outings on the Ausable, Boquet, Saranac and numerous local small streams. His opponents knew the playing field well, and they were wily, cunning and strong. Like a true sportsman, Anthony battled them in the spirit of fair play and always released his finned foes to fight another day.

He kept exacting records of fish taken, insect hatches, wa-

With a wealth of natural resources available throughout the Adirondack region it’s a wonder that local schools don’t offer similar opportunities for non-traditional athletes. The trend has already started elsewhere in the country.

The potential for student anglers to continue with the sport is also growing, as colleges continue to sponsor teams of Bass Anglers. For the past four years, the National Collegiate Bass Anglers Championships have attracted teams from many of the nation’s finest schools.

As the nation’s top professional bass anglers continue to tout Lake Champlain’s amazing fishery, the potential to host local high school teams spans the region from Whitehall to Rouses Point and inland from Saranac Lake to Old Forge.

Imagine the scene, as college scouts gather at the Northern New York High School Bass Weigh-In with promises of scholarships for the Finalists. Anything’s possible. Maybe

Outdoor travelers should take note of several recent announcements that will affect anglers, hunters, boaters and paddlers.

Attention Adirondack Big Game Hunters: Rehabilitation work on the Raquette River Boat Launch, in the Town of Harrietstown, will begin this fall shortly after the September 11-13 running of Adirondack Canoe Classic race. The boat launch, also known as "The Crusher", will be closed for use throughout the Northern Zone Big Game Season.

Hunters who plan to hunt lands around the river should seek alternate river access points such as Axton Landing on the Corey's Road.

Saranac Lake Chain: Until futher notice, operation of the lower lock, between Second Pond and Oseetah Lake, is significantly limited due to problems with the lock's hydraulic system. The lock is closed every evening from 5:30 pm to 9 am the next morning. Operation of the lock will be by manual means only. Also the use of the lock is restricted to motorized vessels only - kayaks and canoes will be required to use the portage. The lock will be operated only at such times that there are enough vessels to fill the lock - boats may expect delays up to one hour while awaiting the operation of the lock. Please plan accordingly.

Raquette River: Rehabilitation work on the Raquette River Boat Launch, in the Town of Harrietstown, will begin this fall shortly after the September 11-13 running of Adirondack Canoe Classic race. The boat launch, also known as "The Crusher", will be closed for use throughout the fall.

Work should be completed in the spring 2010.
