My supporters and I have campaigned throughout the county for the past several weeks, distributing literature and askingfor your input on this process. We have als,o purchased several newspaper ads and.rsdio spots; all in an effort to give every county resident·a ~Iter idea of the attitudes, beliefs, and concepts·that I will bring to the sheriff's office. I'm sorry if I didn't have the privilege of meeting you personally, but I have also been fulfilling my job responsibilities at .the University of Rio Grande, where we recently completed an academy to provide )rained corrections officers to the Oallia and JacksOn County jails.. I write to you peisonally for one of the last times before the elc<:tiob to agai11 respectfully ask for your vote and support. As your elected sheriff, I will bring nearly three decades of law enforcement experience to the office, including 15 years experience as a department administrator, and 13 years experience as an admini.strator and instructor in training progra~. I know tbat being sheriff i~ an awesome rcsponslbility, but · . I am looking forward to the.challenge. I honestly feel that I can bring a fresh approac;h to. local law • enforcement, implementing new and exciting programs tbat ate designed to prevent criine and sa\le you money. , . Some of my proposals··include concentrating patrols on county and township roads, placing a greater Fmphasis on investigations and follow-Lips, cracking down on drugs by utilizing a K-9 unit ~nd entering into a drUg task force with surrounding CO!IIJties, linking schools with the sheriff's dqlartment and working with youth, and strengthening cri'!le prevention efforts with community-based programs. ILI'IIddition, I will create a citizens' committee designed tO live the public more .inpu,t into police policy making and, patrol deploymen\, and to foster a greater spirit of coopeiation'betwcen the residents and the department. Those of you with Internet acce~ will have the opportunity to visit a sheriff's department web site, where our policy manual, budget, goals and objectives, &~~d county crime statistics .will be available for your review. Also, deputies will have !he benefit of advanced trsining, which will help them to better serve you. Furthennore, both the administrative and corrections 'divisions of the sheriff's department will be tun in a smooth and cost-effective manner. The depuiies on the· front line who stand as the line of defense between you and tbe criminal element are the most important division of the sherift:'s department. But they cannoi pelfonn'their jobs'effc<:tively without the support of tbe adlrilnistration, every member of which must ensure that the day-to-day operations of the office arc conducted efficiently and fairly. Too, the highest standalds mus't be maintained in the county jail. While I do not believe in coddling inmates, I do believe in creating an environment in which the liability risk of the GQunty is reduced, and in doing e~rything in my power to remo~e the possibility for lawsuits that .coull! drain the taXpayer'• Yfallets. · ' . As sheriff, as in my campaign, I will' always be honest 'and straightfoward in delling with every one of you; I will never allow style to be'exi:hanled for substanec, photo opportunities to substitule ·~profcssionallaw enforcement, or politics to interfere wilh job. duties.

Declining vote totals have. led some' to believe the· electoral system is in the process of decline or has failed the public. That may haw been attributable to a lack of choice, or disillusionment with the candidates. On the presidential level, at least, choice has provided us with excitement not seen in decades. The George Bush-John McCain contest on the Republican aisle has regenerated interest in the outcome of the primaries. Bush may end up as the.GOP standard-bearer i11 the fall. but McCain's insurgency and amazing victories have · lent a welcome air of unpredictability to the proce:;s. Similarly, AI Gore will probably be the name on the Democratic presidential ballot come November, but Bill Bradley isn'i out yetand he's lasted longer than some contenders. And what about Alan Keyes? Even though his primary percentages have only been in the single digits, this Republican hasn't folded his tent either, despite the fact Bush and McCain have rendered him almost anonymous. Additionally, there may be more people going to the polls because of the reform movement. With their own party in disarray, independent-minded voters aren't accepting what is perceived as th,e i11evitable and are throwing their support to differem candidates. McCain's success of late 'is largely attributable to that sentiment, and while it irritates those who like a comfortable race, it's healthy' for the dem?cratic proCess. . ·. · Choice is definitely out there when we go to vote, We hope it will continue to be a f~ctor in !Jpcoming elections. a 'TODAY IN .

KROPkO ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER CLEVELAND ·- Until recently, Marcus Moorer was just one of thousands in Cuyahoga County's rapidly growing foster care system. Now the county is doing an internal investigation to determine how the 15~year-old boy ended up accused of killing a gas station clerk. With an increasing need for foster and adoptive parents for ·some 2,800 children in permanent custody and eligible for adoption, the county is also trying to maice sure it isn't putting dangerous childrel) out into the communities in and near Cleveland. Police say Moorer shot Danielle Kovacic, 1.9. three times as he and two companions robbed a Clark Oil gas station Feb. 18 in Chester Township, about 15 miles east' of Cleveland. He was abandoned by his birth mother and adopted as a toddler by a Cleveland-area couple 'lfho raised him for 12 years. The couple said they couldn't cope with his unruly behavior and returned him to the county's custody. He was placed in Beech.Brook in suburban Pepper Pike, where he was kept in a ·secured setting and was given both schooling and coon. leling. Beech Brook detetmined he qualified to · be placed in a foster home. William Denihan, director of the co unty's Department of Children and Family Services, said the investigation will try to determine why Moorer's adoptive parent< gave up on him, how Beech Brook decided he was not a threat to himself or others and "what we can learn from the experience to make us a better agency. . "We ttust the professionals. They treated him, and decided his behavioral issues had been reduced to a manageable level." Denihan say5 Moorer's foster home is outstanding, "with structure, rules and conse.quences." He said the question becomes, "How do you Jl!tionally expl;tin,an irrational act?" Cuyahoga County Commissioner Tim McCormack said there is evidence that Moorer should have been kept where hls behavior was monitored more closely. "In reviewing his file, I didn't see the kind of change that would lead one to believe that his anger wasn't still there," McCormack said. "But · I'm not talking about the kind of horrible vialence that was perpetrated. Certainly the potential.for.violence was there in the degree of anger and failure to attach with other people in a more positive way." Debra R.ex, a'5istant executive director of Beech .Brook, which ha< 43 children in resi- dente, said she co.uld not discuss Moorer specifc,, ically. ' . ·. "We tr}' to determine what their problerns. : are and stabilize them and help them heal . enough to live in the c<;>mmunity, in a way that~. safe for themselves and other people;· she said. "All of us at Beech Brook are very saddened by , this event. We are deeply troubled and shaken by it and our hearts go out to the Kovacic fam- . ily." Meanwhile, more and more children -· . · many with what McCormack says are life sto~ ' ries similar to Moorer's - keep coming into . · the county's child care system. Ther~ were 80.f children put into permanent custody last yciJri' versus 248 in 1994. There were 556 adoptions, versus 137 in 1994. McCormack and Denihan said the numbers ~ continue to grow, especially in light of new federal and state requirements designed to make · sure a child is placed in permanent custody if in the county's care 12 mtmths in a 22-month period. Permanency legally "severs the child from biological parents. , "For those few young people with backgrounds that have so severely impacted · them, it's our responsibility to be honest and deal with · those problems," M cCormack said. · . ~ Let's not repeat this series ofpast mistakes On Feb. 6, 2000, the world was urged to out into the open must have been a major part accept China's goal of absorbing Taiwan along of Janet Reno's decision not to further investi- . the lines of its unification with Hong K<;>ng and gate the China linkage in the 1996 elliction.Yet .

BY ED PETERSON SOCIAL SECURITY MANAGER IN ATHENS ·With the income tax filing season upon us, it's a good time to remind self-employed individuals about some special tax tips. If . yott're selfemployed, you need to know that there are two income tax deductions that re.d uce your tax liability. These deductions are intended to make sure self-employed people are treated in much the same way as employers and employees for Social Secunty and mcome tax purposes. 'First, net earnings from self-employment are reduced by an amount eq.ual to half of the persclri 's total Social Security tax.This is similar to til~ way employees are tteated under tax Jaws because the employer's share of the Social Security tax is not considered in_c ome to the employee:' . . · ~econd, as a self-employed pe_rson you can deduct half of your Soctal Secumy tax on the face of thf Internal Revenue Servtce Form 1040. Th'is means the deducuon ts taken from your gross income in determining your adjusted gross in~onie. It is not c.onsidered an itemized deducti;;'n and you must not list it on your Schedule C.

When Soctal Secunty was JU~t getting started back in 1935, the ave rage Amencan's 'life expectancy was just under age 60. Today it's more than 25 percent longer at just over 76. That means · wor~ets have more · time for retirement. and more time to collect .Social Security: Arid that's why Social Security's retirement age is gradually changing ... to keep pace with increases in longevity. A worker retiring today still needs to be age 65 to collect full benefits, but by 2027, workers will have to be age 67 for full retirement benefits. Q. I've heard on the news that Social Securi.ty's full retirem~nt age will increase. I was born in 1940. At what age can I re~eive a full. retirement · benefit? A .. The normal retirement age for Social Security b~nefits increases for workers beginning in January 2000. The full retirement age will br increased in gradual steps until it reaches age 67. Those . workers born in ' 1940 can receive a full retiremem benefit when they i rea~h age 65 years and six m~nths.

The EMS will get some people to a hospital in time, others won't ~e able to . . afford to leave the county for care, and still others w1ll be too ill to be·transported an hour or more away.

Meigs County's future health care needs and what our residents will support. • The levy will cost the owner of a $50,000 home $5.25 a month, a small price for the security of knowing an ER is close by when you or your loved ones need it.

With their own party in disarray, independent-minded voters aren't accepting what is perceived as th,e i11evitable and are throwing their support to differem candidates.

KROPkO ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER CLEVELAND ·- Until recently, Marcus Moorer was just one of thousands in Cuyahoga County's rapidly growing foster care system. Now the county is doing an internal investigation to determine how the 15~year-old boy ended up accused of killing a gas station clerk. With an increasing need for foster and adoptive parents for ·some 2,800 children in permanent custody and eligible for adoption, the county is also trying to maice sure it isn't putting dangerous childrel) out into the communities in and near Cleveland. Police say Moorer shot Danielle Kovacic, 1.9. three times as he and two companions robbed a Clark Oil gas station Feb. 18 in Chester Township, about 15 miles east' of Cleveland. He was abandoned by his birth mother and adopted as a toddler by a Cleveland-area couple 'lfho raised him for 12 years. The couple said they couldn't cope with his unruly behavior and returned him to the county's custody. He was placed in Beech.Brook in suburban Pepper Pike, where he was kept in a ·secured setting and was given both schooling and coon. leling. Beech Brook detetmined he qualified to · be placed in a foster home. William Denihan, director of the co unty's Department of Children and Family Services, said the investigation will try to determine why Moorer's adoptive parent< gave up on him, how Beech Brook decided he was not a threat to himself or others and "what we can learn from the experience to make us a better agency. . "We ttust the professionals. They treated him, and decided his behavioral issues had been reduced to a manageable level." Denihan say5 Moorer's foster home is outstanding, "with structure, rules and conse.quences." He said the question becomes, "How do you Jl!tionally expl;tin,an irrational act?" Cuyahoga County Commissioner Tim McCormack said there is evidence that Moorer should have been kept where hls behavior was monitored more closely. "In reviewing his file, I didn't see the kind of change that would lead one to believe that his anger wasn't still there," McCormack said. "But · I'm not talking about the kind of horrible vialence that was perpetrated. Certainly the potential.for.violence was there in the degree of anger and failure to attach with other people in a more positive way." Debra R.ex, a'5istant executive director of Beech .Brook, which ha< 43 children in resi- dente, said she co.uld not discuss Moorer specifc,, ically. ' . ·. "We tr}' to determine what their problerns. : are and stabilize them and help them heal . enough to live in the c<;>mmunity, in a way that~. safe for themselves and other people;· she said. "All of us at Beech Brook are very saddened by , this event. We are deeply troubled and shaken by it and our hearts go out to the Kovacic fam- . ily." Meanwhile, more and more children -· . · many with what McCormack says are life sto~ ' ries similar to Moorer's - keep coming into . · the county's child care system. Ther~ were 80.f children put into permanent custody last yciJri' versus 248 in 1994. There were 556 adoptions, versus 137 in 1994. McCormack and Denihan said the numbers ~ continue to grow, especially in light of new federal and state requirements designed to make · sure a child is placed in permanent custody if in the county's care 12 mtmths in a 22-month period. Permanency legally "severs the child from biological parents. , "For those few young people with backgrounds that have so severely impacted · them, it's our responsibility to be honest and deal with · those problems," M cCormack said. · . ~ Let's not repeat this series ofpast mistakes On Feb. 6, 2000, the world was urged to out into the open must have been a major part accept China's goal of absorbing Taiwan along of Janet Reno's decision not to further investi- . the lines of its unification with Hong K<;>ng and gate the China linkage in the 1996 elliction.Yet .

BY ED PETERSON SOCIAL SECURITY MANAGER IN ATHENS ·With the income tax filing season upon us, it's a good time to remind self-employed individuals about some special tax tips. If . yott're selfemployed, you need to know that there are two income tax deductions that re.d uce your tax liability. These deductions are intended to make sure self-employed people are treated in much the same way as employers and employees for Social Secunty and mcome tax purposes. 'First, net earnings from self-employment are reduced by an amount eq.ual to half of the persclri 's total Social Security tax.This is similar to til~ way employees are tteated under tax Jaws because the employer's share of the Social Security tax is not considered in_c ome to the employee:' . . · ~econd, as a self-employed pe_rson you can deduct half of your Soctal Secumy tax on the face of thf Internal Revenue Servtce Form 1040. Th'is means the deducuon ts taken from your gross income in determining your adjusted gross in~onie. It is not c.onsidered an itemized deducti;;'n and you must not list it on your Schedule C.

When Soctal Secunty was JU~t getting started back in 1935, the ave rage Amencan's 'life expectancy was just under age 60. Today it's more than 25 percent longer at just over 76. That means · wor~ets have more · time for retirement. and more time to collect .Social Security: Arid that's why Social Security's retirement age is gradually changing ... to keep pace with increases in longevity. A worker retiring today still needs to be age 65 to collect full benefits, but by 2027, workers will have to be age 67 for full retirement benefits. Q. I've heard on the news that Social Securi.ty's full retirem~nt age will increase. I was born in 1940. At what age can I re~eive a full. retirement · benefit? A .. The normal retirement age for Social Security b~nefits increases for workers beginning in January 2000. The full retirement age will br increased in gradual steps until it reaches age 67.

In spite of our best cost-control efforts, our hospital has fallen victim to the federal government's decreasing reimbursement for caring for Medicare and Medicaid patients; and many Meigs County residents I leave the area for health care. -. • Each year 11,000 peopl~ come to our ER fbr care. Without a hospital and ah ER, they will have to leave the countYJor emergency care. The EMS will get some people to a hospital in time, others won't ~e able to . . afford to leave the county for care, and still others w1ll be too ill to be·transported an hour or more away. They may die before reaching a hospital. j • Passing the levy keeps our hospit.al and ER open. . ···for three yea.rs, enabling county residents to determ1ne . Meigs County's future health care needs and what our residents will support. • The levy will cost the owner of a $50,000 home $5.25 a month, a small price for the security of knowing an ER is close by when you or your loved ones need it. AI levy .. dollars will be used for Veterans Memorial Hospital programs and·services. None of us like taXes.
