MISSOURI GUBERNATORIAL DEBATE

order to receive a test voucher number, testing site location and appointment time. The patient will then arrive at the specified test site pharmacy drive-through with either a printed voucher number or show the voucher number on their phone before being given a test kit. The Hy-Vee pharmacy employee will provide the test kit, provide instructions on how to self-administer the test and supervise the administration of the test. The patient will then drop off their completed kit in a collection bin. The entire test process takes about five minutes.

The COVID-19 tests are being coordinated by eTrueNorth. Children ages three and up can also be tested at the Hy-Vee pharmacy testing sites when registered and accompanied by a parent or guardian.

COVID-19 At Forefront

Candidates Spar Over Response O'FALLON, Mo. (AP) — Republican Missouri Gov. Mike Parson and his Democratic opponent spent much of a candidate forum on Friday sparring over the governor's response to the coronavirus pandemic. Parson and Democratic candidate Nicole Galloway, along with Libertarian candidate Rik Combs and Green Party candidate Jerome Bauer, spoke at the forum in Columbia hosted by the Missouri Press Association and KOMU-TV. Galloway, the state auditor, is the only Democrat holding statewide office in Missouri. She used her opening statement and

several other opportunities to attack Parson’s handling of the virus that has sickened 139,164 Missourians and killed 2,395 since the pandemic began. Those numbers included 2,008 new confirmed cases announced Friday and 136 new deaths, though the state health department said all of those deaths occurred prior to October but were just reported. Galloway called for “a complete reset” on the state’s approach to COVID-19, one driven by science and data. “He's had his chance,” Galloway said of Parson. “He's failed the test of leadership. He's just in over his head.”

National Weather Service

Mostly sunny skies are expected this week with a high on Wednesday of 79 before temperatures drop to around 56 for a high on Thursday and Friday. Lows will be as low as 35. The high at Trenton on Thursday, Oct. 9 was 83, Friday’s high was 84 and Saturday’s high was 86. The high on Sunday was 84, the low was 62. The high on Sunday at the Government Weather Station near Spickard was 82, the low was 54.

Since the onset of the virus, Parson has urged Missourians to wear masks, practice social distancing and practice hand hygiene. But unlike many governors, he has not issued any mandates. Several local cities and counties have instead issued their own stricter guidelines since Parson allowed Missouri to reopen June 16. Parson lauded his “balanced approach” that he said has brought the death rate down significantly — from 8% of people infected in April to currently 0.7%. Meanwhile, he said the state’s 7% unemploySee Debate, Page 4

OUT OF GAS AT THE END STANDINGS Bulldogs Just Miss First Win By Two Points In Maysville On Friday night in Maysville, the Trenton High School football team had a victory within reach. But at the end of a knockdown, drag-out game, the Bulldogs were two points short. A 2-point conversion was the difference in a 22-20 loss – the fifth of the season for winless Trenton. On a night when Trenton played by far its most complete game of the season, the Bulldogs’ defense, which had been so good for most of the night, faded. An offense that had been hit and miss about finishing drives, missed at the most

crucial juncture. Maysville scored with 4:41 left to play in the game. It was the third time the Wolverines had come back to tie Trenton, but a 2-point conversion on a bootleg run by quarterback Kaleb Jestes did something the two previous touchdowns had not – gave Maysville the lead. Trailing for the first time all night, Trenton marched down the field as quickly as their run-minded offense could take them. The Bulldogs reached the Maysville 39-yard line with two minutes to play, but went stagnant at that point. First, second and third downs resulted in seven yards, setting Trenton up with a 4th-and-3 situation with 1:16 left. Trenton took a timeout to talk it over. Quarterback Coleman Griffin did his best to keep the play alive, but Maysville had the edge set. The play went for a loss and the Bulldogs went

home winless. “We talked about it before the game,” Trenton coach Kevin Hixson said. “We’ve got to play 48 minutes, we’ve got to play for four quarters. It doesn’t matter what happens early, you have to stay in the fight and they did exactly that. They didn’t always do it perfectly, but they did a great job of staying the course and maintaining their job.” The two teams battled to a 00 stalemate in the first half, though both schools moved the ball well. Trenton and Maysville’s opening possessions combined to run nearly 10 minutes off the game clock but resulted in no points. Trenton got an interception from Kayden Spencer that gave the Bulldogs the ball near midfield. Maysville fell on a Trenton fumble at midfield. Still, no points came. The half ended with Trenton making a stand, turning the Wolverines over on downs at the five yard line. When the second half began, Trenton and Maysville made up for lost time in the scoring department. Trenton took its opening possession of the second half down the field and capped the drive with a touchdown run by Payden McCullough. After McCullough ran in the 2-point conversion, Maysville took the ensuing kickoff to the house and tacked on a 2-point conversion of its own. Coleman Griffin then scored on a nearly 70-yard run and Maysville answered with a 40-plus-yard touchdown run. Neither team

could convert on their second try at a 2-point conversion. After the scoring flurry, the two teams were still tied. The difference in the ballgame came in the fourth quarter. McCullough scored for the second time midway through the final frame, but he was stopped short on his 2-point run attempt. When Maysville answered this time, they did not fail. “We specifically put in a 2point conversion play that we thought was a no-fail situation,” Hixson said. “I’ll have to go back and watch film because I still don’t know how they got us. We had our best blockers up front. They shouldn’t have been able to keep us out, but they did and we didn’t.” In spite of the loss, Trenton had positives to lean on, though finding such hallmarks after every game this season is becoming stale. That didn’t take away from individual performances like Sam Gibson, who seemed to be in on every tackle and drug Maysville runners down in the backfield in some big situations. “Sam is learning,” Hixson said. “He is able to read that stuff and, hopefully, he grew up a little tonight and those are things that we can expect in the future.” McCullough had his best offensive night of the season and Griffin took another step forward at the quarterback position. “I think Payden, the last two weeks, has played well,” Hix-

son said. “He has played hard. His heart is in it 100 percent.” But the end result was still the same as it has been all season. Trenton is now 0-5 overall and 0-3 within the Grand River Conference. The Bulldogs must try to regroup once again. Gallatin visits C.F. Russell Stadium – where Trenton will be at home for the final two weeks of the regular season – on Friday night. “If we are going to win one, we have got to play four quarters,” Hixson said. “We have to stay in the fight. We can’t let down.” Kickoff for the Bulldog battle is set for 7 p.m. in Trenton.

Trenton Wins Bulldog Battle Bus Breakdown Doesn’t Derail Volleyball Team TRENTON 3 SOUTH HARRISON 0 The Trenton volleyball team may have experienced a breakdown on its way to face South Harrison in Bethany on Thursday night, but when the team took the floor, it was hitting on all cylinders. Trenton secured a 25-9, 2513, 25-15 victory over South Harrison in a match that ran on a delayed start after Trenton’s bus broke down en route to Bethany. “We had an interesting ride over to South Harrison,� Trenton coach Pam Bowden said. “The bus broke down on the way, but we used the time to go over our rotation.�

The time was well spent as Trenton wasted little time establishing its dominance over the district rival and taking the opening set 25-9. South Harrison closed the gap a little in each of the following games, but never threatened to take the match from the Bulldogs. The win was a nice boost for a team that followed up a Carrollton Quad championship with back-to-back road losses on Monday and Tuesday. “We played well,� Bowden said. “Our serves and our execution of play were much better.� Trenton was paced by Evy McCullough, who racked up 11 kills at the net and also delivered five aces and an assist. Ava Simpson passed out 14 assists and served up seven aces while also recording a dig in the back line. The Bulldogs also got four kills, a dig and an ace from Olivia Roberts and three kills, two aces, a block and a dig from Lilly Berti. Mackenzee

Epperson finished with one kill, two aces and three digs. The win pushed Trenton’s record on the season to 7-9 overall and 6-1 against Class 2, District 16 opponents. The Bulldogs returned to the court on Monday, playing host to Lexington and will be on the road tonight (Tuesday), traveling to St. Joseph to take on Leblond. The first serve is set for 5 p.m. JUNIOR VARSITY Trenton’s junior varsity topped South Harrison 25-11, 25-19. Kaylea Boyle had seven assists and a kill for the Trenton JV and Juliet Schmadeke finished with four kills and three aces. Nautica Dowling had three kills, five aces and an assist and Abby Simpson finished with four assists, two aces, a kill and a dig. Sarah Washburn was credited with three kills and Zoie McGowan had two aces.

The Trenton High School softball team wound up fourth at the Princeton Tournament on Saturday, going 1-2 overall at the event. Trenton opened the day taking on Milan for the fourth time this season. Trenton picked up it’s third win of the year over the Wildcats, winning 7-2 to advance to the winner’s side of the bracket. There, however, Trenton ran into top-seeded Polo, which bumped the Bulldogs to the third-place game with a 15-0 defeat. Trenton couldn’t bounce back in the third-place

game, falling to the host Princeton Tigers 12-3. With the 1-2 showing, Trenton fell to 5-19 overall on the season. CAMERON 14, TRENTON 4 (6 INNINGS) On Thursday the Bulldogs suffered a 14-4 run-rule defeat on the road in Cameron. Trenton plated runs in each of the first two innings, but each time Cameron answered with big numbers in the bottom of the frame. One run for Trenton was met with five by Cameron in the first. After the Bulldogs scored three more in the second, Cameron tallied six more of its own. After the first two innings, Trenton would not score again. Cameron added single runs in the third, fifth and sixth innings - the one in the sixth ending the game by the 10-run

rule. For Trenton, Teya Cooksey and Jena Harris each had two hits and a run scored with Cooksey adding an RBI. Madi Moore had a hit, a run and two RBIs while Jenna Reeter added an RBI and Eliana Cowling scored a run. Seniors Maci Moore, Jaycie Griffin and Chloe Harris collected one hit each in the loss. Emma Roberts started in the circle but only threw one inning, allowing five runs, three earned, on three hits and three walks without a strikeout. Reeter followed, throwing four and one-third innings and yielding 10 runs, four earned, on three hits and 11 walks while striking out four. Trenton’s defense didn’t help its pitchers very much, committing seven errors in the field.

Debate

ple who do advocate defunding police, including Cori Bush, an activist and St. Louis Democrat who upset longtime U.S. Rep. William Lacy Clay in Missouri’s 1st District primary in August and is heavily favored to win in November. “You might not say it here in this forum with everybody watching, but it does matter who you run with,� Parson told Galloway. “It does matter when you run with those people who do want to defund the police in this state.� Neither Parson nor Galloway were initially elected to their current jobs. Galloway was the Boone County treasurer in 2015 when state Auditor Tom Schweich died. Then-Gov. Jay Nixon appointed Galloway to fill the remainder of Schweich’s term. She defeated Republican challenger Sandra McDowell by about 6 percentage points in the 2018 election. Parson is a former state legislator who ran successfully for lieutenant governor in 2016. He ascended to the state’s top job after fellow Republican Eric Greitens resigned in June 2018. Greitens had been charged earlier in 2018 with felony invasion of privacy in St. Louis for allegedly taking a compromising photo of a woman during a 2015 affair. The charge was later dropped, but Greitens also faced ethics investigations prior to his resignation. The forum had been scheduled for Sept. 25 but was postponed until Friday after Parson and his wife tested positive for the coronavirus. Neither he nor his wife, Teresa, became seriously ill.

ment rate is far below what experts had predicted, and more than 8 in 10 Missouri school children are back in the classroom. “You’ve got to be able to deal with the virus," Parson said. "You’ve got to be able to deal with the economy. You’ve got to be able to get kids back in school safely.� But Galloway cited some concerning statistics, such as a big spike in hospitalizations, which reached record daily totals multiple times in September and October. The number of people hospitalized in Missouri on June 15 was 590; on Friday, it was 1,303. Much of the spike has been in rural areas. “We are living the governor’s coronavirus-fighting strategy right now,� Galloway said. “It’s not working.� Parson is a former Polk County sheriff with a strong focus on law enforcement in a year when both St. Louis and Kansas City are seeing big jumps in killings as well as non-fatal shootings. He has stood firmly with police amid racial injustice protests, and pledged he will “continue to support the men and women who wear those uniforms every day.� Galloway, 38, said she also supports police but wants to add funding for things like health care and education that address systemic problems before they lead to crime. She also denied Republican claims that she wants to defund police. But Parson noted that Galloway has the support of peo-

Court Rules Election Ballots Must Be Notarized By The Associated Press Missouri residents who want to vote remotely in November's elections will have to have their ballots notarized unless they meet specific criteria, the Missouri Supreme Court ruled Friday. The decision comes in a lawsuit filed by the NAACP and the League of Women Voters, who argued this week the state should make it easier for everyone to vote during the coronavirus pandemic. The Missouri Legislature this year passed a law allowing anyone to vote by mail, if their ballot is notarized. Lawmakers also created an exception that allowed at-risk people — those age 65 and older, living in a long-term care facility or with certain health problems — to vote absentee without having their ballot envelopes notarized. The ruling signed by four judges said

there is no constitutional right in Missouri to vote by absentee or mail-in ballot. “The new absentee and mail-in ballot statutes do not affect the right of voters to go the polls to vote� and do not violate any other constitutional right, the ruling said. The judges also wrote that allowing everyone to vote remotely without notarization would conflict with the Legislature's clear intent when it passed the new voting provisions. While the voting rights advocates argued their position was limited to the COVID-19 pandemic, the practical effect would be to allow any voter concerned about contracting or spreading any illness to cast an absentee ballot without notarizing it regardless of whether they expected to be ill the day of an election, the judges wrote.

“All future voters beyond the 2020 election could claim they expect to confine themselves `due to illness' under Appellants’ suggested interpretation of that phrase. This result is clearly contrary to the plain and ordinary meaning of this absentee provision,� the judges wrote. Absentee voting began Sept. 22 in Missouri. About 364,000 absentee ballots and 38,500 mail-in ballots have been requested so far. The organizations were appealing a decision last month by Cole County Circuit Judge Jon Beetem, who found that the notarization requirements do not impose a substantial or severe burden on the right to vote. An attorney who represented the organizations in court Tuesday did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

HARVEST TIME IS UPON US Believe it or not, it is already October. The days are quickly growing shorter, the air is getting cooler and our wonderful farmers are beginning to harvest their crops. This means they will be delivering those goods to market very soon, and it takes them just a little longer to get there than it does for the rest of us. Fortunately, we are used to seeing tractors and other farm equipment on the roads here in the great northwest part of our state. Despite your familiarity, I urge you to exercise caution when out and about this time of year. It does not matter if you have driven for 30 years or it is your first time behind the wheel, please slow down when you see slow-moving farm equipment. You never know what could be on the other side of the sharp corner along that lettered highway you have driven a thousand times, it could be a farmer working to provide for his family. According to a recent Missouri Agriculture Foundation and University of Missouri Extension

study, there were 107,000 Missourians employed in professions that directly related to agriculture last year. Overall, nearly 400,000 Missourians owe at least part of their livelihood to agriculture. And, for our farmers out there, I realize this has not been the best of years. We have seen floods and droughts wreak havoc on crops over the past few years, from one condition to another, and both in the same year, sometimes. Add to this the uncertainty of the continuing coronavirus pandemic and the future seems unclear. But, I know our farmers are ready to take on any task, and we thank them for all that they do. They are ready for just about anything that comes their way. As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns. My capitol office number is 573-751-1415, my email address is dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov and my mailing address is Room 332, State Capitol Building, Jefferson City, MO 65101.

Conservative PAC Criticized As Racist O'FALLON, Mo. (AP) — A conservative political action committee in Missouri is facing accusations of racism after posting a website that uses images of violent protests and photos of Black politicians to attack the Democratic candidate for governor on her support for police. Nicole Galloway, Missouri’s state auditor, is trying to unseat Republican Gov. Mike Parson, a former sheriff running on a “law-and-order� platform. The website recently set up by the Uniting Missouri PAC has the heading, “Nicole Galloway’s anti-policing allies� and says, “If you want to know where Galloway stands, look at who she supports.� The site includes photos of Black politicians and activists Cori Bush and Rasheen Aldridge of St. Louis, and Clem Smith, a Black man who is the acting chairman of the Missouri Democratic Party. Also pictured are mixed-race

members of the Sunrise Movement. Video in the background shows violent scenes from protests. Several Democrats along with St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist Tony Messenger and an the Kansas City Star editorial board contend it’s more than coincidental that the imagery overwhelmingly involves Black people. “To me, it is not just a dog whistle. It’s a bullhorn,� said Lindsey Simmons, a Democrat running for the U.S. House in Missouri’s 4th District against incumbent Republican Vicky Hartzler. “They are directly saying, ‘Hey, be afraid of Nicole Galloway, she is procrime, because look at the Black people she hangs out with, and they’re pro-crime, too.’ That is just incredibly, overtly racist.� Parson’s campaign is not involved in the website. His campaign did not return email messages seeking comment.

Uniting Missouri Chairman John Hancock denied any racist intent, saying the people pictured meet two criteria: They support Galloway, and they “hold documented radical anti-law enforcement views.� “The website simply compiles unedited statements from Nicole Galloway’s allies advocating for defunding the police, freeing convicted cop killers, and even setting fire to a police station,� Hancock said in an email. “If Nicole doesn’t want to face criticism for endorsing candidates that want to defund the police, then she should rescind her endorsements — it’s as simple as that,� Hancock said. Galloway campaign spokesman Kevin Donohoe said in a statement that the website is evidence that Parson’s allies “are desperately trying to divide Missourians to distract from Governor Parson’s failures on crime, law

and order, healthcare, and the pandemic.� Bush and Aldridge are longtime activist leaders in St. Louis. Bush pulled a stunning political upset in August, defeating 10-term incumbent Democratic U.S. Rep. William Lacy Clay in Missouri’s 1st District primary. She’s expected to win easily in November. Aldridge represents a St. Louis district in the Missouri House. Smith was a five-term state representative who was named acting chair of the Missouri Democratic Party in July. The site includes a tweet from Bush that reads, “We need to defund the police and make sure that money goes back into the communities that need it.� It cites a June story on KSDK-TV’s website in which Aldridge said activist demands include defunding police and payment of reparations for past racism. The site references a news article that said Smith signed a

letter calling for the “immediate freedom� of a man serving life imprisonment without parole after killing a Philadelphia police officer in 1981. Clarissa Rile Hayward, a political science professor at Washington University in St. Louis with expertise in the relationship between race and politics, said there are plenty of activists of other races with similar views who could have been pictured. She said the site smacks of the “Southern strategy� of communicating a racist message through coded language rather than overt racism. “The message is, `Galloway is not on your side; she’s on their side,’� Hayward said. “I think it’s pretty heavy-handed and I think there’s a racist subtext that’s not hard to see and is not subtle.� Opinion writers for the state’s two largest newspapers also have taken exception to the website.

A Star editorial on Wednesday accused Uniting Missouri of “using an ugly tactic in their campaign� against Galloway. Messenger wrote on Tuesday that it’s not enough for Parson to stand on his own record as sheriff. “It’s like his campaign, or the one run by his sidekicks, is the little boy in the movie ‘Sixth Sense,’ with a little racist twist: ‘I see Black people,’� Messenger wrote.

house. When they came home, she had a fit. She considers that I'm saying she's dirty. When she got pregnant again, I was not allowed to know until my son called months later and told me they were having twins. That's why they were telling me -- because he said it wasn't a good time to come down, instead of just telling me she is pregnant (everyone else knew). He said there would never have been all that arguing. My daughter-in-law and I have not spoken since she became pregnant nine months ago. She started messaging me nasty things, saying it wasn't any of my business why I couldn't come down. She states, "STAY UP WHERE YOU ARE NOBODY LIKES YOU DOWN HERE ANYWAY." So we started arguing back and forth on Messenger. I was talking with my doctor about this, and he says to stay away from her. What do I do if I'm invited to birthdays or the twins' christening? She took away my bonding time with my granddaughter. I don't want to be around her, but I want to see my grandchildren. -- Shut-Out Grandma Dear Shut-Out Grandma: Your daughter-in-law does sound

Dear Annie: My son and daughter-in-law have been married for about three years. She used to be a very nice girl when dating my son. When they told me they were getting married, it was just so that she could be put on my son's health insurance because she couldn't work anymore. I was still happy. She sold her house and moved into his house. I live five hours away, so when I visit, I usually stay four days and play with my granddaughter, who is 9 years old. I was kidding around one day when my son was leaving for work and I said, "Aren't you going to kiss your wife goodbye?" She yelled, "We don't have that kind of relationship!" I quickly shut my mouth. When I used to go down, I would ask if I could take my granddaughter for a walk, but now she always says no. She says she doesn't trust me. She accuses me of all kinds of things that are not true. When I tell my son what she says to me, he always answers that's just how she is. Once my son and his wife went to a ballgame, her mother was babysitting at her house because I can't be trusted. I had nothing to do, so I vacuumed the

unstable, or certainly like she believes you cannot be trusted. That must be so hurtful for you as a grandmother, and I'm sorry you are going through this. Grandparents are a gift to children, so let's try and find a way for you to be back in their lives. You should attend events if you are invited. Birthdays and christenings are memorable days that you don't want to miss. When you're there, focus on the love you have for your grandchildren and your son. If you can take it a step further, send your daughterin-law some love. Clearly, she is hurting deeply. Have an open and honest conversation with your son about your feelings. Tell him you are willing to go to family counseling or do whatever it takes to have a relationship with him and your grandchildren. Don't give up on them. How someone treats you is a statement about who they are as a human being, not a statement about you. How you respond is a statement about you. When you are with them, it's probably best to avoid making any comments whatsoever about their marriage. Of course, you were right in your comment about a kiss goodbye, but that makes her even angrier. If she says hurtful things again, don't engage in an argument on Messenger. Remember she is hurting and that is why she is acting out. Act with compassion, and keep being there for your son and grandchildren.

Slack Technologies hasn’t been able to cash in on the work-at-home phenomenon, even though its business communications tools are helping connect employees who normally sit just a few desks apart. Although its service is still signing up more subscribers, Slack’s shares haven’t taken off like those of several other companies selling popular business products. Companies benefiting from the trend include Microsoft, Salesforce.com, Adobe and, most notably, Zoom, which went public last year two months before Slack did. Thanks to soaring demand for its video

conferencing service, Zoom is projecting its revenue during its current fiscal year will nearly quadruple from last year to $2.4 billion while profits rise as well. That’s one of the key reasons Zoom’s stock market value has soared from $17 billion right after its April 2019 stock market debut to $136 billion now. Slack, by contrast, sees its revenue increasing by about 40% this year. That slower growth rate, coupled with an uninterrupted history of losses since the company’s 2009 inception, is one of the reasons Slack’s market value has slid from $21 billion after its June 2019 stock market debut to $16 billion now.

Despite growing subscribers and paying customers, Slack’s shares remain moribund. Its consistent losses are one reason.

AREA Sexual Abuse Charge Is Filed Felony charges of sexual abuse have been filed against a Trenton man. According to the Grundy County Sheriff’s Office, 36year-old Juan J. Gallegos, Jr., is facing two class C felony counts of first degree sexual abuse. The abuse, which allegedly occurred on two occasions between May 1 and Sept. 30, involved Gallegos knowingly having sexual contact with a person who was incapable of consent due to youth. In both instances, he is ac-

cused of placing his hands on the genitals of the youth, including one instance in which he placed his hand under her shorts and above her underwear. In the other instance, he is accused of touching her through her clothes. In both instances it is alleged that his intent was to terrorize the victim. Gallegos is being held in the Grundy County Detention Center without bond and is scheduled to make a court appearance on Oct. 13.

Two Mishaps Investigated A pedestrian sustained an injury afer being struck by a vehicle on a business lot Friday afternoon. According to Trenton Police Officer Ashley Pacheco’s report, the accident occurred when a car driven by Joseph M. Christenson, whose address was listed as McCloud, OK, was backing from a parking space and failed to see the pedestrian, who was struck as she walked across the parking lot toward the business at 1419 E. Ninth St. She said she heard the driver and a passenger arguing before the vehicle backed into her, striking her on the left side from her elbow to her knee. She refused treat-

ment at the scene but later went to the hospital, according to the report. Another accident occurred Sunday evening at a business at 202 E. Ninth St., when a pickup truck driven by Everett W. Thompson of Trenton was traveling through the lot and sideswiped a pickup truck driven by Leo D. Sheffield, also of Trenton, which was parked in front of the business. Thompson’s vehicle then mounted the curb in front of the business and almost struck the ice machine. Thompson was ticketed for driving while revoked and failing to maintain financial responsibility for a vehicle.
