REED · Staff writer : POMEROY, Ohio - Balancing a $200.000 revenue shortfall with increasIng costs of )~w enforcement may be the \>iggest financial challenge facing Meigs County officials in 2003. With a final layoff of sheriff's deputies pending early in December, commissioners must begin the task of determining how to appropriate sufficient funds in each county department's 2003 budget in light of the anticipated cut in revenue. This year, commissioners appropriated $3.53 million into county departmental budgets. Commissioner Jim Sheets said Thursday the board anticipates on! y $3 .26 million for 2003 appropriations. ."It has to be done fairly," BY PHILUP AlDER 28 Poet Wallace Ste29 vens wrote , "The 33 ¥enui ne artist is never FRANK & EAHNEST true tn life .· He sees 35 36 what is real. but not 39 as we are normally r.-~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ aware of it.

Commissioner Jeff Thornton said Thursday. "If we lose $200,000 and have no source of additional revenue , what can we do? I'm opposed to raising taxes, so we may have to cut each office's budget." The loss.. of income is blamed on a combination of factors: loss of personal property tax revenue and real estate tax revenue, both directly relating to the closing of the Southern Ohio Coal Company 's Meigs Mines, cuts in interest earned on inactive public funds , and a significant decline in sales tax revenue. Last year, officeholders were subject to a 3 percent, across-the-board cutin appropriations, although Sheriff Ralph Trussell received a cut of 2.25 percent. In 200 I ; Trussell received $610,310 for operations , and this year. $596,000. "The sheriJf's department has tradi tionally had the biggest budget among all the general fund departments," Thornton said . "We have always given special co nsideration to that office because it operates 24-hours a day, seven-days a week. "But we on ly appropriate the money. It's up to each officeholder as to how the lnoney is spent. " Trussell will begin next year with a new financial dilemma : How to pay $130.000 in bills from this year while struggling to pay salaries and operating expenses for 2003. The unpaid bills include the costs of housing prisoners in other counties, repair and maintenance costs for cruisers, food and medical expenses for prisoners, and office operating expenses .

Project manager George Ramella said work began on the bridge Nov. II after inspectors no1iced a flaw in its design . He said the original beams were "underdesigned" and did not meet DOH standards. "We weren't getting our money's worth," Ramella said. · Ramella noted the flaw was not something intentionally done by the designers MS Consultants of Charleston who have made good on correcting the flaw. While he couldn't really speculate on what problems could have been caused Clue to the flaw, Ramella said motorist were not in danger. "There were never any safety problems to the public," Ramella said. Ramella said work to date has involved removing the deck, beams and peer caps.

NATIONAL VIEW Shaming • Wheeling. (W.Va.)-News Register: Some Supreme Coun justices seem to believe that subjecting a few child molesters to shame isn't a good trade-off in exchange for helping to protect society against them. Were ·public humiliation intended as punishment, .the learned jurists might be correct. But when it is crafted as a protective measure, they 're dead wrong. Justices again recently debated "Meagan's Law" statutes, named for a New Jersey child killed by a convicted sex .offender who lived in her neighborhood. Every state has some v~rsion of the law, used to inform the public of ihe whereabouts of conyictcd sex offenders. Cases from Alaska and Connecticut. were debated recently, with a focus on whether information about sex .offenders, along with their pictures , should be placed on the Internet. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg compared Internet di splays to public shaming penaltie.s intlicted upon some offenders, primarily in colonial days. Such punishment - if indeed informing the public is punishment- would fall under bans against cruel and unusual penalties, But Justice Antonin Scalia put the issue in perspective. "What is irrational or unconstitutional about warning people about categories of people who may be dangerous?" he asked an attorney{or two Alaska sex offenders. Precisely. Relatively high recidivism rates for sex offenders, the fact that children often are their targets, and the violence almost always accompanying their crimes make it important that the public be iilformed concerning them. ' · Supreme Court justices should uphold the Alaska and Connecticut statutes, with a ruling written to set a wide-ranging precedent for similar laws in other states. The highest coun in the land should not ban statutes intended solely to offer some small measure of protection against crime ol the most horrific nature. TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS .

Meigs Calendar RUSHER'S VIEW A cautionary example of hysterical partisanship Everyone has his own theory about what happened to the Democrats on . Election Day. Most Republicans chalk the Democrats' disastrous defeat up to President Bush's high personal popularity, combined with the voters' conviction that the GOP has a better grasp of security and foreign policy issues , which are. much on their minds just now. The Democrats have various theories, but they tend to cluster around .the ·.· COLUMNIST notion that the party "didn't aniculate · its policies very well." That is to say, Democratic candidates and spokesmen were divided on such major issues as high official of the administration) is Iraq and tax cuts, and tended to resolve conspiring to stuff yet more money into that dilemma by not being very clear- the bulging wallets of their Texas cut about either of them. Also, unlike cronies. One can imagine how the ghastly the Republicans, they lacked a national news of election night must have leader capable of defining the issues impacted poor Krugman. But he refused and speaking for the whole party. I thi,nk all of these explanations have to crumple. By Nov. 8; he had analyzed merit, tl-iough they by no means exhaust the situation and identified the problem: the list of possibilities. But Paul "(S)ome Of the major broadcast media are simply ):liased in favor of the Kru~man has come up with a theory-so. origmal and so ridiculous that it Republican:s,-while the rest tend t~ blur deserves to be noted and cherished as a differences between the pantes.

" Now, to anyone who has been observsanitized and given a regular column on the New York Times's Liberal Attack ing American politics during the past 30 page to rail at America's filthy capital- or 40 years, the charge that the media Ists and their contemptible Republican are biased in favor of the Republicans is lackeys in Washington.

As for The New York Times, The Washington Post, Time, Newsweek , U.S. News, ABC , NBC, CBS, CNN and MSNBC , they <!U jy,~~ "tend to blur differences between the panies." It's enough to make a liberal weep. . I have a suggestion: Let's enco.urage poor Krugman in his delusion. Send him a note from time to time (as atl address, "Princeton University,, Princeton, NJ." will do) with a tip~ "Limbaugh got off a particularly vicious crack today ,.. " or "Brit Hum¢ was up to his usual dirty work on FoJ!, yesterday ...

But what if terrorists believe in terror -for the sake of Islam? Not only does a willful official blindness to the militant Islamic-ness of the terrorist foe undermine our war effort, a point columnist Daniel Pipes has most recently made, it is also a detriment to any peace that follows. Just think: If the President of the United States - the Great Satan's great Satan believes, as this one has variously and re~titively stated, that unreformed Islam is already the ultimate in peace, comfort, charity, compassion, honesty, inspiration, love, mercy and justice, then you have to wonder what O'Q eanh would ·possess Islam's liberals to undenake the arduous and even dangerous work of forcing the religion out of the Middle Ages and into the 21st century.

When Ohio State plays Michigan the. rivaly is so intenst that the matchup is .simply called "The Game." The two teams square off today in Columbus, Ohio. (AP) COLUMBUS (AP) -. As Ohio State's head coach from 1979 to 1987, Earle Bruce won five of the nine games played with rival Michigan. . . Along the W<ty, he learned how important the game was to his neighbors. "It is the game, it is the big game and sometimes people say it is the only game," said Bruce, now a radio analyst on Buckeyes footbalL "It lets you walk the main streets of Columbus, Ohio. Or if you lose, you go to the alleys, buddy." Current Ohio State coach Jim Tressel has a lot ridfng on the outcome of Saturday's showdown with No. 12 Michigan: a No. 2 ranking, a 12-0 record, a shot at the national championship, a share of a Big Ten title - and the ability to be seen in public for a year. A year ago; . in his first ganie against Michigan as Ohio State coach, Tressel won 26-20. That victory brightened the winter for the Buckeyes' fans, who preferred to recall the win in Ann Arbor instead of a 7-5 record, a bowl defeat and a third-place finish in the conference. Tress_el got to walk on main street. But he knows the adulation he's getting from Ohio State's fans · lasts only until the first time he loses to the hated Wolverines. "We can 't worry about what's going to happen if we win or if we don't," Tressel said. "We've got to focus on the game." The teams are meeting for 'the 99th time. Both sides carry a lot of baggage from the past. · Asked what separates. "The Game" from other rivalries, Michigan coach Lloyd Carr said, "History. You look at all ·the ·great g&mes, players, coaches. Anytime you have an opportunity to play in that game it is special because of what it means to so many people. "There are a lot of guys that played at Michigan that watch that game every year, and! am sure it is the same for Ohio State. They go to the games because it is a way for them to relive the opportunities that they had to play in the game." Ohio State does not want to relive the games in 1969, !»lease see OSU, Bl A lot on the line Call it The Little Big Game. . · 'A trip to the Fiesta Bowl isn' t on the line and 105,000 people may not be in attendance. And instead of OSU vs. · UM, it's OU vs. MU. While the national championship is light years away from Peden Stadium, today's rnatchup between Ohio and Marshall has some minor implications. A Marshall win will clinch the Mid-American Conference East Division title for the Thundering Herd. More importantly, the GMAC Bowl mucky-mucks - who will be in attendance - will likely extend an invitation to the Herd at the con; elusion of the game. And the Thundering Herd, which will be limping into the game with Stan Hill set to start. at quarterback for an injured Byron Leftwich, will be glad just to go bowling. A season that began with such high hopes has been on the decline since Marshall's loss at· Virginia Tech back in September. It took even a greater dip after the stunning loss at Akron on Nov. 2 when Leftwich we'nt down, injuring his left shin, and the red alert lights began to flash in Huntington. , . Not all is lost, though. Hill led the Herd with nearly 300 yards passing and five touchdowns - four in the air - in Marshall's win over Miami last week. There were soine amazing catches by Darius Watts, Josh Davis and Denero Marriott that might have helped save the day. · Yes, another trip to the GMAC Bowl may salvage the season for the Thundering Herd and while many may see Marshall's trip to Ohio as a routine matter, don't overlook the Bobcats. fn fact, if there is any team · that can take advantage of the Herd's greatest weakness, it's Ohio. · All the Bobcats do well on offense is run : Run, run, run ... Senior tailback Chad Brinker leads the top rushing offense in the MAC, which is averaging 248.7 yards per game. Ohio quarterbacks Fred Ray and Dontrell Jackson have combined for more than 600 yards on the ground and are the Bobcats' second and third leading rushers, respectively. .

The communities of the tri· county area are ·under siege, with police reports of crack cocaine and methampheta· mine arrests surfacing with regularity. Heroin also is a relatively new player in the market, as well. And with the big city drugs come a host of problems, such as rising crime rates and increased violence. "Heroin. I hate to see that, but it's here," says Damon . Morgan, Mason County prosecuting <\ltorney. "There's quite a bit of crack - has been for a few . years- and that's something I haven't seen before. II used to be marijuana, some speed. Now, ,you ' re seeing a lot pflls, Oxycontin, more cocaine, meth, a lillie heroin." · Sgt.

Starcher say s that Oxycontin use has increased dramatically. "Oxycontin is the big thing. That's what they're wanting now. Methamphetamine, you hear about a few meth labs here and there, some crack, coke, not a whole lot. Marijuana is still the big dru ." T~e biggest problem in the local war on drugs is lack of manpower, according to Starcher. "That's what hurts us in this area. We barely keep our heads above water handling everyday activities. We do get drugs every week though, · but its mostly marijuana." Starcher believes the high unemployment rate in the area contributes to the prob· lem. Another is that Meigs County is notoriously known for home-grown mariju.ana that is produced each growmg season. " In Meigs and Vinton counties, you have many farms, good soil and some of the highest unemployment rates in Ohio. And Mason in West Virginia ranks right up there," Starcher says Secluded areas and good growing conditions make southeast Ohio an ideal place . to grow marijuana, according to the U.S . Justice Department. Meigs' biggest cash crop? "It's highly plausible that marijuana is Meigs County's bigge st cash crop," says Richard Vedder, a retired economics professor at Ohio University. · · "B>: the very · fact that the (manjuana) trade is illegal, nobody knows its exact size."

Crack, a highly addictive drug derived from the residue of cooked cocaine, came to Gallipolis a few years . ago. Throw in the newcomer . Oxycontin and you have two high! y potent narcotics that, when abused, bring in a whole new batch of big-city type problems. · "We braced for it," said Roger ·Brandeberry, chief of the Gallipolis Police Department. "We knew it (crack) was coming btl! were surprised ittook so long get- . ling here. I think our two <:~re biggest concerns Oxycontin and crack. "In . the last year, it (O"ycontin) snuck up on us. 'What is it?' ·we asked. Now, we've got a good understanding. Localfy, regionally, nationally, we're all dealing with that problem." Oxycontin is one of several opium derivatives available by prescription. It is a highpotency painklller that comes m time release tablets that last for 12 hours. · When used as prescribed, it helps cancer patients and chronic pain sufferers manage their pain. O"ycontin abusers crush up and · snort the tablets or chew them. When crushed up or chewed, the pill's time ·release mechanism no longer works, hence the user gets a quicker "high." The drug is· uspally mi"ed with a combination ·of other drugs, such as alcohol, and the results can be devastating. Gelling the full effect of the tablet all at once is like shoot· ing high-grade heroin but it is more addictive and more dangerous. Oxycontin suppresses the ,respiratory system and when combined with alcohol or other depressants, it is often deadly. Often, the user goes to sleep and respiration slowly decreases until breathing stops completely. Brandeberry, who has been at the helm of the Gallipolis department since. 1993, says local police have locked up individuals from Detroit, Columbu s, Dayton and everywhere in between on different crack-related charges . When the crack problem surfaced in the late 1980s on the East and West coasts, he . knew it was only a mauer of time before the drug found its way to the streets of .Gallipolis. "It's ruining lives," Brandeberry said. Crack al so comes with another major problem: . Violence.
