QUEENSBURY Ñ Politics in Warren County took some unexpected detours this week as deadlines passed for fi ling petitions to run for public offi ces in affi liation with mainstream political parties. Three of the many candidates for local public offi ces aren’t likely to be getting the Republican ballot line as they had been seeking, as several sets of petitions were judged invalid by the county election commissioners this week after challenges were fi led by local citizens. Petitions for Warrensburg Town Board member Linda Baker Marcella, Thurman highway superintendent candidate John M. Haskell Jr. and Stony Creek Highway superintendent candidate Leon B.

Gov. announces next step in invasive species prevention plan By Ryan Edwards
ryan@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — In keeping with Invasive Species Week (July 12-18), Gov. Cuomo announced on Tuesday the opening of 12 new boat decontamination stations as a part of a park-wide invasive species prevention program. The program is the result of an agreement reached among more than 60 conservation groups, owners associations, and local and state governments in March to work in concert to help preserve clean water, increase recreation opportunities and promote tourism. Now 41 boat launches in the region will host boat stewards who will show arriving boaters the signs of possible invasive threats on their boats and trailers, and at these new decontamination stations boat stewards will use high pressure, hot water decontamination units to clean boats that have not been cleaned and drained. Boater participation is voluntary yet strongly encouraged by state officials. A similar program has existed on Lake George for seven years, funded by the New York State Environmental Protection Fund and local municipalities such as the Lake George Association. This program employs a number of stewards at various boat launches on the lake, whose collective goal is to decontaminate boats and educate the boating public on proper invasives prevention. Unlike the park-wide program, the Lake George program be-
came mandatory last year, when the reigns were handed over to the Lake George Park Commission, who have the enforcement authority on the lake. Over the course of that year, the LGPA inspected over 20,000 boats and trailers, decontaminated more than 1,200, and caught 165 identified invasives before they could enter the lake. According to C. Walter Lender, the Executive Director of the LGA, these numbers have remained about the same since the introduction of the program, proving to prevent any increase in harmful invasive species to Lake George. “It is a very effective program, and very well received by the boating public,” Lender said. The program is effective because it is flexible, Lender said, as it is designed to simultaneously accommodate boaters and protect the lake. “We made it very east for the boating public — no lines, no backup, and with flexible hours,” he said. Lender said he is pleased to see the system go park-wide, and hopes to see it expand in the coming years to better protect lakes in the park and throughout the state.
Boating precautions
Akin to the existing Lake George program, the park-wide initiative urges boaters to follow the clean, drain and dry standard: •Clean boats, trailers and equipment of any debris, and dispose of it in an upland area or receptacle provided for this purpose.
•Drain the boat completely, including bilge areas, live wells and bait wells. Waterski and wakeboard boat operators should be sure to drain all ballast tanks. Many aquatic invasive species can survive in as little as a drop of water, so it is imperative that all water is removed. •Dry all equipment for at least five days before using it in another water body. Longer drying times may be required for difficult to dry equipment or during damp or cool periods. Drying is the simplest and most effective way to ensure equipment does not transport plants or animals.
Why it matters
In addition to their harmful effects on the environment, recreational opportunities, and human health and safety, a recent study by the Adirondack Park Invasive Plant Program found that if invasive species are allowed to spread, they could cost the Adirondack economy up to $900 million. This figure includes annual losses in visitor spending, agriculture and primary forest production value as well as losses in property value that will affect the tax base and borrowing ability for property owners on an ongoing basis. “Preventing the spread of invasive species in our Adirondack waterways is vital to preserving the natural treasures of this region and ensuring it remains a major economic asset,” Governor Cuomo said. “Through a proactive campaign we are getting experts and the public involved so everyone can do their part to keep the Adirondacks pristine and enjoyable for years to come.”
Headwaters battles teen depression, other preventable ER visits By Ryan Edwards
ryan@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Hudson Headwaters Health Network recently became one of six grantees in five states to receive a $150,000 grant from the RCHN Community Health Foundation to develop and launch a program designed to combat preventable pediatric emergency room visits. According to data acquired by the HHHN staff, the top three causes for pediatric ER visits are sthma or other respiratory ailments, injury, or behavioral health, including depression and suicide risk. Two-thirds of these problems, they say, are preventable. In order to decrease the number of visits related to these issues, HHHN plan to use these grant funds to establish and implement a population health focused program. HHHN will partner with Glen Falls Hospital and the Adirondack Health Institute on the initiative, which is formally called “Improving Regional Pediatric Care Management to Reduce ER Utilization.Ó “There are lots of initiatives to reduce hospital admissions among adults, but nothing in our area addressed the needs of children,” said Cyndi Nassivera-Reynolds, Hudson Headwater’s vice president of transformation and clinical quality. “And when it comes to children, the approach to care must consider the family and environmental factors that might underlie or exacerbate certain health conditions.Ó The three main issues HHHN the program is designed to target correspond to three age-specific groups: For the youngest age group — newborn to 9 — most ER visits were due to asthma, croup, or other respiratory ailments. For children ages 10 to 13, the majority of ER visits were the result of injuries that could have been handled in primary care
or urgent care centers. For teenagers, an overwhelming majority of ER visits were due to depression, anxiety or substance abuse. A portion of these funds will be designated to address each of these issues individually: For the youngest group, HHHN will now offer an in-house allergist to determine the root causes of respiratory difficulties, as well as a patient educator to work with families to better understand the importance medication maintenance to prevent asthma attacks. For the middle age group, HHHN plans to educate families about alternatives to the ER for non-critical injuries. As Surveys of teenagers by county health departments are showing growing rates of depression and suicide ideation, the third age group will require some serious attention, HHHN staff say. “The leading cause of hospital admissions among teenagers in our area is suicide risk,” said Hudson Headwater’s CEO John Rugge, MD. “And a large portion of emergency department visits by teenagers — nearly one quarter — are made by six percent of these teens for reasons related to depression or behavioral health. We need to do a better job of reaching them.” In order to accomplish this, HHHN will hire a new pediatrician — an expert in technology and data analysis — who will work with other key staff to develop a pediatric care management system. The new system will facilitate the integration of behavioral health and primary pediatric care to better reach and support high-risk teens, essentially a pediatric health home model. “A critical part of improving our nation’s health is to more effectively reach and care for those who are most vulnerable, and children and high risk teens are at the top of that list,” said Feygele Jacobs, president and CEO of the RCHN Community Health Foundation (RCHN CHF). Ò Our foundation is pleased to
support innovative projects to improve the health of vulnerable populations and share lessons learned on how to deliver health care that works better for children, families, and our communities.Ó The other six projects awarded these grants include initiatives to reduce smoking among Asian Americans by Charles B. Wang Community Health Center, New York, NY; reduce diabetes-related emergencies by ACCESS Family Care, Neosho, MO; improve colon cancer screening rates by Adelante Healthcare, Phoenix, AZ; improve cervical cancer screening rates in health center communities by Colorado Community Health Network, Denver, CO; and establish a medical home for the homeless by Santa Rosa Community Health Centers, Santa Rosa, CA.

Cronin’s to host 20th annual Rally for a Cure golf tourney By Keith Lobdell
keith@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — It’s a tradition as old as the idea of racing and rallying to help end the fight against breast cancer. The 20th annual Rally for a Cure golf tournament at Cronin’s Golf Resort Saturday, July 18, is one of only 19 events in the nation that got it’s start the same year as the Susan G. Komen Foundation and continued to this day. In an opening ceremony shortly before the 8:30 a.m. tee time, the group will be honored by a representative from Komen, who will present an award to the organizers. “This is a special time for us,” Heather White with Rally for a Cure said. “To be one of the 49 events throughout the country that have been going on since it first started is a great accomplishment.Ó Over the 20 years, the tournament has gained national recognition. “We had a feature story about the event in Golf Digest over the winter,” White said. “We were also awarded the first prize in a Rally for a Cure photo contest for having all the participants form a breast cancer ribbon.Ó Since 1996, Rally events have engaged over 2.5 million people in the fight against breast cancer, generating more than $77 million through fundraising activities for Susan G.

Echo Lake town park enhanced, town hall upgrades sought By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Long a summertime destination for both local residents and area visitors, the town of Warrensburg’s park at Echo Lake is quite popular this summer after recent upgrades, town officials said this week. The park was upgraded this year to include a children’s playground — which includes a jungle gym, a teeter-totter, swings, and several rides, two volleyball courts, and a tether-ball setup, Warrensburg Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty told the town board at their July meeting. The park also features an upgraded pavilion, picnic tables, a half-dozen new barbecue grills, one large grill, and freshlypainted rest rooms. Situated beside the parking lot for Echo Lake Beach, the park is shaded by towering evergreen trees. Access to the beach has been widened to better accommodate emergency vehicles, Geraghty said. Handrails down the trail to the beach have been installed, and the changing room at the beach has been painted, he said. Grant money for the improvements were obtained by the Healthy Places to Live, Work & Play program of Glens Falls Hospital. Facilitating the project were Healthy Places program director Kathy Varney, Warrensburg Town Bookkeeper and grants writer Patty Monahan, Chris Belden and Patti Corlew of the town planning office, as well as town employees that accomplished the work.
Speed limit lowered on busy road
Also at the July 8 meeting, Geraghty noted that state officials had approved a new, lowered speed limit of 45 miles per hour rather than 55 mph along Schroon River Road from the Warrensburg High School north to County Home Bridge Road. The reduction was prompted by a request by Ed Zibro, organizer of the Warrensburg Bike Rally held at the county fairgrounds on Schroon River Road. Geraghty said that Zibro ob-

served during this year’s rally that speed along the roadway was excessive. The change is effective as soon as county officials erect new speed-limit signs.
New trolley schedule detailed
Also, Geraghty noted that the Warrensburg, for the first time in many decades, now has public transportation services with the introduction of the tourist shuttle from Lake George to Thurman. The run originates in Glens Falls, travels through Lake George and stops in Warrensburg on its way to Thurman Station, to meet the Saratoga-North Creek Railway’s new North End Local service. Offered on weekends, the passenger service extends from Thurman Station to North Creek. The trolley brings tourists to the trail on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through the summer months. The trolley leaves Lake George Steel Pier daily at 9 a.m., stops at Richards Ave. in downtown Warrensburg at 9:10 a.m. and arrives at Thurman station, where the train departs for North
Creek at 10 a.m.. The trolley then stops again at Richards Ave. at 9:35, returning to the Steel Pier at 9:50 a.m. Another run trolley run leaves the Steel Pier at 12:30 p.m., and stops in Warrensburg at 12:40 p.m, arriving at Thurman Station at 12:50 p.m. to pick up passengers headed back from North Creek. That return trip stops in Warrensburg at 1:05 p.m. on its way to Lake George. A second afternoon round trip is conducted beginning at 3:30 p.m. at the Steel Pier, stopping in Warrensburg at 3:40 p.m. on its way to Thurman Station at 3:50 p.m., passing again through Warrensburg at 4:05 p.m. Geraghty also announced that new sidewalks are to be constructed son on Sanford St., James St., Ashe Drive and Woodward Ave., as well as on a portion of Elm St. Bankrolled primarily by federal grants, the work is to begin July 20.
New roof, windows sought for town hall
The town board also voted to solicit bids for upgrades to the town hall — a new Adirondack-green metal roof, new energyefficient windows and upgraded insulation. Geraghty said the existing windows wasted energy and the roof has been leaking recently. Bids for the project are to be opened on July 29. Also, the board voted to purchase two used sand filters for the town sewer plant at a cost of $9,999 each. They also voted to sell miscellaneous outdated town computer equipment at the upcoming Smoke Eaters’ Jamboree auction. Proceeds will be returned to the town general fund. Also, Geraghty reported that plans call for moving fire and emergency communications transmitters from their traditional location at the county Public Works garage to the town water tower off Maggie’s Road. The change is to improve emergency radio coverage in the region. The board members also talked about progress in plans for the park at the site of the former Warrensburg Board & Paper manufacturing plant on the Schroon River. The town is applying for a $416,000 grant to fund development of a park with a gazebo, river walk and outlook, a picnic area and a boat launch.

Protest an exercise in futility
A
horde of activists descended on several Champlain Valley communities last week to protest the ongoing oil train traffi c through the region. They occupied construction sites and chained themselves to equipment in Vermont and blocked traffi c in Ticonderoga. The protests, which drew around 100 demonstrators, were held in conjunction with others across the country as part of a week long campaign coordinated to commemorate the second anniversary of the Lac-Megantic disaster, which killed 47 people after an oil tanker became untethered and blew up part of a Canadian town. These patchouli-scented protesters, including many from the self-admitted extremist radical organization Earth First!, called for the immediate end of oil transport through the region. While we can fi nd common ground with their underlying sentiment — the 4,000 percent increase in traffi c through our communities over the past six years is certainly cause for alarm — we fi nd their methods counterproductive. This is nothing but an attention grab from a group of disconnected extremists with a proven track record of spiteful sabotage. Like the Occupy Wall Street movement, their actions are designed more to stroke their own egos than moving the needle forward on public policy. In fact, this group has had a net negative effect with their actions by forcing local emergency service providers and law enforcement offi cials to expend their valuable resources to monitor what amounted to a temper tantrum. Across the lake in Vergennes, fi refi ghters had to extract an activist who chained himself to a natural gas truck on its way to International Paper in Ticonderoga. Not only was this wildly irresponsible, it was also ignorant considering natural gas is a cleaner alternative to fuel oil, the usage of which at IP is widely supported by green groups. It was also dangerous considering its cargo was full of fl ammable material. Authorities had to use power tools to extract the irresponsible extremist, a measure that very well could have led to Lac-Megantic, Part Deux without the proper training. These are the very same fi rst responders who would respond to a possible rail disaster, putting life and limb at risk while working to quench a lake of fi re.
And they’re understaffed across the board. Departments in many of the Champlain Valley communities dotted along these railways are in crisis. A pair of listening sessions to discuss the problems facing the Elizabethtown-Lewis Ambulance Squad earlier this month, for instance, drew only three people. Willsboro and Essex offi cials have said their squads will fl atline without a massive restructuring. The common refrain in Keene Valley is Ò What if no one came?Ó And Crown Point, one of the communities located along the railway, doesn’t even have an ambulance squad anymore. They closed six months ago because they couldn’t fi nd a medical director. Not only are fewer and fewer people stepping forward to volunteer for these local agencies, but departments are scrambling to afford the equipment that will keep our people safe in the event disaster does strike, from the expensive foam used to quell oil-fueled fi res to the ambulances that will transport our injured heroes to hospitals. In all, nearly a dozen state and local agencies responded on both sides of the lake last week to tend to the protestors. It wasnÕ t free. As these extremists did victory laps for their tantrums, our men and women in uniform quietly went on to their next assignment. As if their publicity stunt wasn’t enough, these groups are now asking the community to foot their legal bills. Here’s an idea: How about these agencies stick them with the bill for the equipment repairs and overtime? That would be the sensible thing to do. We agree that oil by rail poses a signifi cant threat to our lakefront communities. But we also feel confi dent that the persistent pressure that our elected offi cials, including Sen. Chuck Schumer and Gov. Andrew Cuomo, continue to apply to both the railway industry and federal and state regulators, progress is being made on ensuring the safety of our communities. Protests are fi ne. But when they do nothing but stretch the resources of our hardworking agencies, perhaps it’s time to not put earth fi rst, but rather your fellow citizens.

Problem with rising tide
Hang onto your firearms and pray
To the Editor:
To the Editor:
In their editorial “A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats,” Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau sound like ignorant politicians running for public offi ce instead of intelligent news analysts. Keeping in mind that it takes no credentials to be a politician, I would expect something more informed from educated newspapermen. As sad as it is, most low-wage employees are so because they just don’t have many marketable skills. There are hordes of uneducated, illiterate employees nationwide demanding that the government take care of them by mandating a high minimum wage. The situation has been totally politicized by the Obama administration’s pandering to its allies, especially the SEIU. I have repeatedly stated before in letters to this newspaper: It is not the duty of American businesses to provide a living wage for low skill employees. The reason that low-wage employees can not earn a living wage is because of negligent mismanagement of the economy by government -- at all levels -- over the years by uncredentialed, incompetent politicians who have allowed the cost of living to be determined by political contributors instead of any kind of supply and demand. Instead of minimum wage-pandering by minimal-intelligence politicians, low marketability persons need help to acquire better work skills through better education. Unfortunately, the dumbing down of the U.S. education system by the same incompetent politicians makes this almost impossible. Schools used to teach reading, writing and arithmetic. Now they teach “free Willie,” “Save the whales,” “Sue your employerÓ and so on. The irony is that freeing Willie and saving whales requires a scientifi c knowledge of reading, writing and arithmetic! If the benefi ts of a high minimum wage for unqualifi ed employees are so great, why not raise the minimum to, say, $100 an hour? Or, even better, $500 or more, an hour. Or, why not pay them as much as professional baseball players? That would really raise the tide! David Safrany Half Moon Bay, CA
Ballots
From page 1 for a hearing on their respective petition issues. They also have the opportunity to fi le as candidates on an independent ballot line in the November election. The following candidates have fi led petitions in Warren County for offi ces subject to election this fall (non-contested elections at this point are excluded): For Warren County Family Court Judge (the countyÕ s new second judge), two Republican candidates will be seeking their party endorsement in the Sept. 10 Primary election: Paulette M. Kershko and Daniel J. Mannix. Regardless of who wins the Primary, Kershko also will be on the Nov. 3 ballot on the Conservative Party and Independence Party lines. Joining the race in the November General Election will be Rob Smith on the Democratic, Independence and Working Party lines. Incumbent Warren County Sheriff Nathan “Bud” York (Rep., Con., Ind.) is to be challenged in November by former Warren County Sheriff Larry Cleveland (Dem., Work.). York beat Cleveland in 2007 in York’s fi rst run for offi ce, and he’s held the post ever since Jan. 2008.
‘Changing of the guard’ in Chester
In the Town of Chester, two candidates will be competing in November for the Supervisor post, as long-time town CEO Fred Monroe is retiring. Running for the offi ce are Town Board member Karen L. DuRose (Rep.) and political newcomer Craig R. Leggett (Dem., Con.), a consultant for holistic farming and ranching. In Chester, there’s a four-way race for Town Clerk: competing for the post are Republicans Mindy Conway, Patricia L. Higgins-Bollman, Cathy A. Bump, and Tanya May. Competing for two seats on the town board are incumbents Michael G. Packer and Stephen Durkish, challenged by political newcomer Ava L. Ashendorff, a Tea Party organizer and broadband technology consultant. All three are Republicans. If DuRose is elected as Supervisor this November, her seat on the town board will be vacant as of Jan. 1, and the board would then have the opportunity to appoint a temporary replacement. This new board member’s seat would be up for election again in November 2016. Also in Chester, incumbent Superintendent of Highways Jason J. Monroe is being challenged by Howard E. Meade. Both are Republicans.
Politics heat up in Lake George
ThereÕ s plenty of political action in Lake George this fall, precipitated primarily by controversy surrounding the relationship between the town Comprehensive Plan Committee and the town board, as well as the board’s past planning board appointments. Town of Lake George Supervisor Dennis L. Dickinson (Rep.) is challenged by former town Planning Board Chairman Keith T. Hanchett (Rep., Con.) Incumbent Lake George Town Board members Marisa Muratori (Rep.) and Daniel D. Hurley (Dem.) are being challenged by three Republican candidates: entrepreneur Sean Quirk, former town Code Enforcement Offi cer Robert Hickey, and Jeffrey G. Martin.
Political challenges, U-turn in Thurman
In the town of Thurman, Incumbent Town Supervisor Evelyn M. Wood (Rep., Dem., Con., Indc.) is challenged by present Town Clerk Cynthia R. Hyde (Rep.). For the Thurman Town Clerk Post, former Adirondack Journal correspondent Kathy Feiden Templeton (Dem.) and Jeanie Sprague are seeking the post
Two letters in the July 11 issue need to be addressed: ”More Gun Control” by Jeff Canton in Long Lake and “Controversial Ideas of Right to Bear Arms” by Edward Pontacoloni of Lake George. Both were well written. Thank you guys. But you are totally missing the why of gun control. Repeat after me: The new world order- the new world order. Come on now, repeat it 98 more times. The United States has an estimated 42 to 43 percent of the privately owned fi rearms in the world. No government can force its will on a population that is armed. That is the only reason we have the Second Amendment - to overthrow the government when they refuse to uphold the constitution. Look at the statue in front of the UN Building. It is a revolver with the barrel twisted like a pretzel! Do you think this think this just might mean something? The United Nations stated on national TV that their goal is to got the world population down to one billion. At last count, we were over six billion. Their plans will make Hitler look like a Sunday school teacher! Just before Comrade Obama was elected, the UN Secretary General asked him if he would consider becoming the First new World Order President. He answered, “I would be honored!” May God have mercy on us because no one else will. Hang on to your fi rearms and pray. George Phillips, Chestertown

For two seats on the town board, incumbent Gail Seaman (Rep., Indc.) is vying against retired Thurman postmaster Joan B. Harris — who has been a candidate for several public offi ces over the last decade — and newcomer John E. Youngblood (Dem.), a psychologist who has worked for various human service agencies for decades. Now a clinical director for the Association for Community Living, Youngblood is an adjunct professor of psychology for University of Massachusetts, Amherst campus. Petitions for a town board seat had been circulated for Nathan Herrmann, pastor of the Thurman Baptist Church, but he declined this week to be on the ballot. Incumbent Thurman Superintendent of Highways Patrick S. Wood (Rep., Indc.) was challenged by John M. Haskell II (Rep.), but his petitions were ruled invalid this week. County election offi cials said his petitions bore names of people not registered as voters, not belonging to the Republican party, or not providing an address.
Petitions nixed in Warrensburg, Stony Creek
In the Town of Warrensburg, incumbents Joyce M. Reed and Linda Baker Marcella are joined by political newcomer Bill Mahar in a race for two seats. Mahar challenged Marcella’s petitions, and the county election commissioners upheld his contention — the pages of Marcella’s petitions didn’t bear page numbers. Tuesday, Marcella confi rmed that she will be circulating petitions — with page numbers — under an independent party label, and she’ll be on the ballot in November. Mahar, 53, is an information technology employee of Warren County. In the town of Stony Creek, Neil P. Bradley (Rep.) will be on the ballot. He was to be challenged on the GOP line by Leon B. Bills, whose petitions were deemed to be invalid by county election commissioners. Bills still has the opportunity to run as an independent. In the town of Bolton, Town Justice Edward Stewart (Rep.) is being challenged by Edward G. White (Rep., Con.)
Plenty of action in Queensbury, Glens Falls
In the Town of Queensbury, there’s a six-way race to serve in the four at-large seats on the Warren County Board of Supervisors. One of the four seats is being vacated by Mark Westcott, who is not seeking re-election so he can pursue other interests. Incumbents Matthew Sokol (Rep., Indc.), Rachel Seeber (Rep., Con., Indc.) and Douglas Beaty (Rep., Con.), are challenged in the race by Deputy Town Supervisor Ron Montesi (Rep., Con., Indc.), former Supervisor-at-large David J. Strainer (Dem., Con.) and Daniel Kane (Rep., Ind.) a teacher and the former Warren County STOPDWI coordinator. For the Queensbury Town Board Ward 3 post, incumbent Doug Irish (Rep., Con., Indc.) is challenged by Richard F. Garrand Jr., vice chairman of the town’s Zoning Board of Appeals. To represent Queensbury’s Ward 4, incumbent town board member William T. Van Ness (Rep.,Cons. Indc.) is challenged by Jennifer Sullivan Switzer (Dem.), the fi nancial offi cer for Warren County Economic Development Corp.. Both Switzer and Garrand lost narrowly in their respective town board races two years ago. Two seats representing Glens Falls on the Warren County Board of Supervisors are contested, with the retirement of long-time county supervisors Harold “Bud” Taylor of Ward 3 and Bill Kenny of Ward 5. Running for Taylor’s seat are Claudia K. Braymer (Dem.), an environmental lawyer, and W. Gary Patton (Rep., Indc.), owner of Superior Cantina restaurant. For the Ward 5 county Supervisor post, declared candidates are Matt McDonald, an employee of Champlain Stone, and Benn F. Driscoll Jr. (Dem., Con.) a former Ward 5 Councilman.
Stop the vandalism
M
ost of these Ò Little BitsÓ are what I call fl uff—light and fun. This one is not. It’s about vandalism in cemeteries and how I believe it to be abhorrent. Most of you are familiar with a recent story about widespread damage and destruction in the historic Plattsburgh Riverside Cemetery. When I learned of what happened there, my stomach churned. I by Gordie Little looked at Kaye and we said almost simultaneously, “Who would do a thing like that?” Who, indeed. Our next thought was, “Can the police discover the person or persons who perpetrated this heinous act and, regardless of age, will those responsible be prosecuted to the full extent of the law?Ó I have not spoken with Plattsburgh City Police about it. I am no longer an everyday reporter except in a peripheral way. However, with extensive experience gathering and delivering news to the North Country, I have ways of getting information. I will be reading, watching and listening to all who report on this Riverside desecration and will use whatever meagre infl uence I can muster to bring this case to a reasonable conclusion. My friends know my passion for local history. Kaye and I have wandered through countless cemeteries in this region and elsewhere. We believe graveyards are windows to the past. Finding the oldest cemetery in any place we visit, is like dessert after a satisfying meal. We ponder over the names, dates and epitaphs. We have stood among the monuments and stones in Gettysburg, closed our eyes and listened for the high-pitched voice of our 16th president delivering his brief but powerful address in November of 1863. We have walked with reverence through Arlington National Cemetery and shed a tear at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. We have been fi lled with emotion as we stood before the eternal fl ame honoring John F. Kennedy. We have scanned every stone in the mostly forgotten graveyards at Cades Cove in Tennessee, pondering the grief of parents who lost entire families during the 1918 infl uenza pandemic. We have done the same at the Post Cemetery along Route 9 south of Plattsburgh. We have replicated that exercise with bona fi de historians throughout Clinton County, from the Northern Tier to the southern boundary as well as east and west. We have studied the records painstakingly recorded by Hugh and Woody McLellan many decades ago, along with more recent updates by Clyde Rabideau, Sr. We have traveled to Scotland and Ireland to fi nd the graves of our ancestors and cherished gravestone rubbings done in London and throughout England by my late Aunt Freda. We have meandered through rows upon rows of interesting above-ground burial vaults in New Orleans. In short, we fi nd cemeteries to be like libraries, revealing much about those who came before. Our righteous anger wells when we hear stories such as the recent vandalism at Riverside Cemetery on Steltzer Drive in Plattsburgh. It would take more space than this to recount every story I know about such horrors. I recall vandals stealing skulls from a Peru cemetery vault and parading about like the demented creatures they appeared to be. I remember stones tipped over in area cemeteries as youth carried out macabre acts over the years. I know of a case where grave stones were bulldozed into a local river. I salute my friends from the Clinton County Historical Association who tagged the gravestones of Civil War veterans recently. I applaud those who have rediscovered and reclaimed rural cemeteries that had fallen into disarray. I will not be satiated until all who were responsible for the destruction at Riverside Cemetery are brought to justice and the damage is repaired. Someone knows who the culprit(s) are and I pray that they will step forward to help us bring it to some kind of satisfactory end. Thank you for indulging me and thanks for all the hard work police and others are doing in this case. Please try with all the strength and will you can muster to instill respect in your children so they wonÕ t be tempted to do such dastardly deeds.

property off Pasco Road, which was part of Route 28 during BradyÕ s lifetime. Although historians have long known that Brady hailed from the Lake George region, no one knew precisely where until local author Glenn Pearsall discovered the ruins through census records, sketches and a bit of wandering through the woods while researching his 2008 book “Echoes in these Mountains,” which commemorates historical sites in the Johnsburg area. Now, nearly a year after the sign’s mysterious disappearance, the Johnsburg historical society launched a campaign on the crowd-funding website Adirondackgives.com on June 22 to replace the sign and implement added security measures. In a matter of days the campaign had well exceeded its $1,900 goal, bolstered by a recent article in the New York Times detailing the circumstances of its bereavement. As of Tuesday, July 14, donations from over 50 backers exceeded $2,600, with 38 days remaining in the campaign. “I was astounded,” said Delbert Chambers, president of the Johnsburg historical society. “The day the Times article went up, it went ballistic — and it’s still climbing. “The article went online Monday, [July 6] and appeared in print Tuesday, and by Wednesday we had surpassed our goal,” Chambers said. While replacing the sign is still “number one” for the historical society, Chambers said they intend to use the additional money to begin to develop a permanent Mathew Brady exhibit in the town. In announcing the exhibit in a note on the web-page, Chambers praised the myriad donors, saying “your altruism has reinvigorated our morale.” However, the sign won’t be replaced overnight, Chambers said, as the process is quite extensive, and will be undertaken entirely by the volunteer organization. “There is no state involvement. This is a private concern, now paid for by the concerned populace,” Chambers said. As of now, the historical society plans to install a new sign at the same location in the Fall of this year.
Historical heist
While the theft of the sign is a curious crime, it was not the first controversy surrounding the Brady marker, as the historical society’s first attempt at installation was thwarted by the owner of a bordering property. According to Chambers, the man who owns this neighboring

www.adirondackjournal.com land claimed incorrectly that his property-line extended to the intended site, from which the sign was later placed and stolen. Following this incident, the historical society opted to install the sign at the C. Earnest Noxon Community Center in Weavertown instead, holding its dedication ceremony in November of 2011. Later, when Chambers became president of the historical society, he worked to have the sign moved to what he considers its rightful place following an increase in community concern. “I kept getting asked, ‘Why isn’t it where it belongs?’” Chambers said. Chambers proved the original location to be state-owned and arranged for the proper insurance and clearances from the state highway department and the town before relocating it in the Fall of 2013. “Everything was perfectly legal,” he said. Less than a year later, however, the sign was ripped from the earth by what Chambers maintains could only have been a tractor. The culprit(s) made off with the cast iron sign, weighing in at around 100 pounds, the post which held it and the concrete footing used to secure it. “I wanted to say ‘the only thing they left behind was a hole in the ground,’” Chambers quipped, “but they kicked dirt into the hole when they were done — they even stole the hole in the ground.” This was not the first time a sign had been stolen from this same location, Chambers said, as a large pink banner advertising the Thurman town-wide garage sale went missing only three months prior to the theft of the Brady marker. While an investigation by the Warren county Sheriff’s Department has yielded no arrests and little information, witnesses reported seeing an orange Kubota tractor at the location around the time the sign went missing.
Brady’s life and legacy
One of the first American photographers and often credited as the father of photojournalism, Mathew Brady lived in Johnsburg until he was 16 years old, when he moved to Saratoga to study painting with famed portrait painter William Page. Through his relationshiop with Page, Brady met inventor Samuel F. B. Morse, who pioneered the art of daguerreotype photography in America. Brady became a student of Morse’s, eventually opening his own photography studio in New York City in 1844, and another in Washington D.C. in 1956, where he began to photograph illustrious Americans, including Andrew Jackson and Andrew Carnegie. Brady’s foray onto the battlefields of the Civil War began with the lucrative enterprise of photographing young soldiers before they left for the front, marketing his services to parents who feared they’d never see their sons again. But soon Brady himself journeyed to the front lines of the Civil War, accompanied by a team of 23 photographers he employed, each equipped with a traveling darkroom. “I had to go. A spirit in my feet said ‘Go,’ and I went,” Brady is quoted as saying. Brady and his team were among the first photographers to shoot real battle scenes, and together they produced the largest single collection of Civil War information in the United States. “For the first time people were really seeing what was happening on the battlefield,” Chambers said of Brady’s efforts.
Adirondack Journal • July 18, 2015 | 9
A famous photograph of Abraham Lincoln taken by Brady (above) on the day of Lincoln’s Cooper Union speech. Lincoln would later say of the photo, “Brady and the Cooper Institute made me President.” In addition to the battlefield scenes, Brady photographed portraits of such Civil War figures as Ulysses S. Grant, Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee, in addition to a number of earlier photographs of Abraham Lincoln which have appeared on the $5 bill, the Lincoln penny and the 90-cent Lincoln Postage issue of 1869. It comes as no surprise that Lincoln Ñ who often publicly mocked his own ugliness — should favor the photography of Brady, who was known to retouch photographs to make them more attractive to the eye. Lincoln personally commended Brady on the power and influence of his images by saying “Brady and the Cooper Institute made me President,” in reference to a 1860 photograph which became the central image of Lincoln’s campaign, taken by Brady on the day of the famous Cooper Union speech in New York City. During this speech Lincoln elaborated his views on slavery and arguably secured his victory in the presidential election later that year. However, making presidents does not exempt a man from despair, as when the government declined to purchase his collection of 10,000 plates — which cost Brady $100,000 to produce Ñ he was forced to sell his studio and declare bankruptcy before dying alone in 1896 in the charity ward of Presbyterian Hospital from complications following a streetcar accident. Thanks to the Johnsburg historical society and the generosity of a number of strangers, however, Brady’s work and memory will live on within the Adirondack town in which the legendary figure was born and raised nearly two centuries ago.

Small Tales Early Learning Center and Daycare holds open house By Ryan Edwards
ryan@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — The Lotus Group of Companies held an open house on Saturday, July 11, at their latest Warrensburg venture — Small Tales Early Learning Center and Daycare. The open house invited area residents to tour the site, meet the staff, learn the curriculum and sign up for daycare services. Located at 99 River Street in Warrensburg, Small Tales endeavors to provide a space for young area residents to develop integral language and literacy skills through a tailored curriculum centered on storytelling and learning through play. “They’re not going to come watch television and play video games,” said Lotus CEO Ash Anand. “They’re here to learn something.” As Small Tales prepares to open officially next week, Anand said “I’m extremely excited to be done. It’s been a long process to become totally

complete and compliant, but we’ve made quick progress and been extremely successful.” Taking only four months to complete, Anand said the Lotus Group was one of the fastest daycares in the state to establish.
Steak roast, parade set in Newcomb
While Small Tales does not formally open until a Wednesday, July 22 ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by Sen. Betty Little, the open house served as an opportunity for parents and their children to see the facility and learn about the CenterÕ s mission. “We believe that choosing a daycare is beginning the path of learning and socialization your child will take for the rest of their lives,” said communication director Maggie Morgan. Ò When children are exposed to literacy at a young age, they are able to make viable connections to the real world through fables, fairytales and classic fiction.” Small Tales employs a staff of 20, including a number of teachers with extensive experience at area schools, and as many as 60 kids can be enrolled at a time. Terri Leary, who worked with infants and toddlers at the Washington County Headstart for 21 years, will be in charge of the infant room at Small Tales.
Parade lineup will start at 10 a.m. at the Newcomb House Bar, stepping off from the Newcomb House at 11 a.m. and making its way through town, led by a team of oxen who will be pulling a wagon with the guests of honor and other dignitaries. The parade will end at the Newcomb Central School, leading
As a Warrensburg resident, Leary is delighted to have an opportunity to work with children so close to home. “I think it’s something our community needs,” Leary said. “It’s so important, even at this age. This is the beginning of language, the beginning of school-readiness.” For the kids, the open house offered free ice cream, pop corn and other refreshments, pony rides, a bounce-house, face and finger painting and a magic show. The Warren County Sheriff’s Office were also present performing car-seat checks for parents. The open house saw the enrollment of 25 children into the program, and the Small Tales staff are confident these children and any future attendees will be safe, entertained and intellectually stimulated in their care. “Small Tales is a lot like writing a story,” Morgan said. “A child will begin to draft their first pages, develop character and begin the first chapter of life.Ó

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden One Hundred Years Ago – July, 1915 Inferno raged at Riverside
The Dipper Pond home of Asa E. Porter, at Riverside, was burned to the ground on June 30, 1915 at 1 o’clock in the morning. Hardly had the flames been discovered when they became completely beyond control. Mrs. Porter, while in an upper room trying to save some of her most treasured belongings, was overcome by smoke and her husband, rushing up the building stairs, carried her down through the seething flames to safety. Mrs. Porter’s hair was scorched and one of her ears was severely burned. Several neighbors, attempting to carry out a piano, were nearly killed by a falling chimney. The piano was not saved. A large collection of books, filling two cases, were destroyed and also a great deal of clothing and nearly all of the furniture. The house was large and very pretty with its first and second story porches enclosed with lattice work and covered with vines and rambling roses. It was one of the finest houses in the area. There was no insurance on the property, the policy having recently expired and through neglect had not been duly paid. Mr. Porter and family removed to Riverside from Gloversville two years ago. He expects to rebuild.
Fish Hatchery news
Sumner Manley Cowden, Sr., of Bemis Point, has been appointed superintendent of the new Warrensburgh Fish Hatchery, to be built this summer on the old Ben Glynn farm, Echo Lake Road, and he is now on the grounds superintending the reconstruction of the farm house on the place, which will be his residence. The building will be provided with modern improvements, including a steam heating plant, bath room, etc. Mr. Cowden will establish his residence there as soon as the work on the house is done. He comes from the Chautaugua hatchery, where he has been stationed for a number of years. He was picked for this place by State Fish Culturist T.H. Bean and Dr. Bean was here to oversee the property last week. Both he and Superintendent Cowden are enthusiastic over the location and the quality of the water supply from the Lockwood spring which they pronounce to be superior. The hatchery will be devoted exclusively to the propagation of brook-trout and all streams in this section will be stocked with its product. The contract for the hatchery building is expected to be let within a few days and work on it will probably be started by July 22, 1915. The plant will be one of the show places of Warrensburgh and will attract many visitors. (Note – Senator James A. Emerson secured $20,000 early in 1912 to build the fish hatchery in Warrensburg. The 72 acre property was bought by the state from Addie Glynn and John H. Lockwood which includes an island on the adjoining Hudson River. Both properties were part of the Lockwood farm. The hatchery was constructed under contract by George E. Farrar. Sumner Cowden retired in 1955 and he died in 1970. The good news is that the Warrensburgh Historical Society will hold its 19th Annual Croquet Competition and free to the public Picnic on the hatchery grounds next month, Sunday, Aug. 9, 2015 and everyone is invited.)
Mystery fire at Loon Lake
The barn on Dr. Fred E. Aldrich’s farm at Chestertown, overlooking Loon Lake, was burned Tuesday evening, July 6, 1915, about 7 o’clock in the evening. The origin of the fire is a mystery. Several fire fighting parties hastened to the scene by autos but the flames had gained much headway so that they were unable to approach the building and none of the farming implements stored within were saved.
Growing population
Warren County now has a population of 33,052 people according to figures filed by the enumerators of census. The city of Falls contains nearly half the people in the county, now having a population of 16,356, an increase of 1,113 in five years. Warrensburgh has a total of 2,314 people.
Exciting horse races
In the races held in connection with the Elks field day and picnic, at Rensselaer Park. Troy, Monday afternoon, July 5, 1915, Dr. Bell, driven by Charles Mosher, of Chestertown, won the free- for- all pace event in three straight heats. General Grant, another Chestertown horse, driven by Mr. Mosher, also won the free-for-all event in three straight heats. Pilot Bay, a Glens Falls horse, driven by J. Bishop, took third place in the running races.
Soldiers invade Warrensburgh
The Third Battalion, Thirtieth United States Infantry, stationed at Plattsburgh, in command of Major E.H. Bandholty and numbering about 350 men, marched into Warrensburgh, Monday afternoon, July 5, 1915. They made camp on the Warren County fairgrounds, behind Ashe’s Hotel, and remained until 6 o’clock Tuesday morning, when they departed for South Glens Falls. The camp was visited by many townspeople on Monday but most were disappointed as there was no band with the battalion as there has been in previous years. The soldiers were en route to Fishkill Landing to act as instructors.
Hotel changes hands
A,C, Stone, who recently sold the Grand Army Hotel, in Warrensburgh, to W.D. Wright, has leased the High Point Tavern, on the Lake George Road, and will conduct it as a first class road house. Mr. Stone has a large experience as a caterer. He will surrender possession of the Grand Army Hotel on Saturday, July 10, 1915 to its new proprietor. Mr. Wright will be assisted in the management of the place by his brother, Jack Wright, who has been employed as clerk in the house for six years. (Note Ð The Grand Army House was on the corner of Main and Water Streets, now George Henry’s bar and restaurant location.)
Boy in hot water
An automobile of American model, not recently made, but a powerful and attractive car, owned by Dr. John Magee, of Troy and Chestertown, caught fire while being driven by a son of the owner, at midnight, Monday, July 5, 1915 on the Riverside Road, in an uninhabited section where assistance could not be
secured and despite the stoutest resistance on the part of the young man, the car burned fiercely and is believed to be totally destroyed.
Schroon Lake man critical
Elmer Shattuck, of Schroon Lake, while at work cutting pulp wood near his home recently was fatally injured when a tree fell on him, pinning him to the ground. He was taken to Moses Hospital, in Ticonderoga, where it was found that his back was broken and his body paralyzed from the waist down. His chances of recovery are considered to be very doubtful.
Prominent lady dies
Mary Mixter, 70, wife of Emerson S. Crandall, died Friday afternoon, July 2, 1915 at the Emerson family home on Main Street, Warrensburgh. Death was caused by a general breaking down of the system resulting from an attack of pneumonia which she suffered in the early part of last winter. She was a daughter of the late John Mixter and the eldest of a family of eight children of whom only two now survive, Miss Ida Mixter and Fred R. Mixter, both of this village. Besides her husband she leaves a daughter, Miss Mary S. Crandall and a son, Percy Emerson Crandall. A son, Charles Emerson Crandall is deceased. Since girlhood, the deceased has been a faithful organist for many years at the Church of the Holy Cross, a position now to be ably filled by her daughter and the funeral was held at the church. (Note – The old Mixter homestead was the stone building located on lower Main Street where the Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce is now located. The Crandall homestead was the white house, now for sale, once called the White House Lodge, located between the VFW and the Church of the Holy Cross. Emerson Crandall, who died in 1926, was a wealthy man who owned the three story Crandall business block across the street from his house. It burned in 1927. Miss Mary Crandall was a well respected legend in her own time at the Richards Library.)
Sweet and sour notes
It was just 89 years ago, July 4, 1826 that John Adams and Thomas Jefferson died on the same day. It was just 30 years ago, July 23, 1885, that Ulysses S. Grant, 18th president of the U.S., died at age 63 years at Mount McGregor, New York. (Note – Grant’s Cottage, next to Mount McGregor Prison, finally closed on July 26, 2014 for the last time.) “Mr. Fox” is making himself quite a home at the farmer’s hen houses in the locality of Landon Hill, Chestertown. Several flocks have been considerably thinned out by his visits. Mrs. S.R. Pritchard has been appointed postmistress at Pottersville to succeed Scott Pritchard. Several men of Mike McCarthy’s river driving crew are boarding at G.W. Smith’s in South Horicon. John S. Armstrong and Miss Mary Albert were married by the Rev. C.S. Agan, June 26, 1915, at the Methodist parsonage in Warrensburgh and they will make their home here.
