An agreement which will result in $25,000 in additional funding for tourism promotion in Meigs County was approved when the Meigs County Commissioners met in regular session on· Monday afternoon, The agreement, between the Meigs County Chamber of Commerce and the Department of Human Services, uses funds ~rom the TANF competitive grant program anl!> will provide $25,000 for a six-month period for promotion, advertisement and marketing of Meigs Counly as a tourist attraction. ' According to C mmissioner Janet Howard, the funds are a supplement to funds spent by · the chamber for tourism . . The chamber spent $27,000 last year· on tourism, including a salary for Tourism Director Karin Johnson. Those funds were generated through fundraising efforts on the part of the chamber, which is -a private non-profit civic organization. The new funds are not to be used for salaries, according to Howard. Commissioner Jeffrey Thornton said that. commissioners \viii renegotiate the contract in June, at the same time that a contract for eco- nomic development services between the county and the chamber is renegotiated. For several years, the county commissioners have contracted with the chamber for economic development services, but the DHS now provides additional funding for. ·those services, also through the TANF progt~rn. ·, A second economic development professional is expected to be employed using lhe $125,000 in TANF dollars received by the county. The tourism funding is separate from the economic .development funding. Meigs is the first county in the slate to use TANF monies for economic developmenl and tourism. It is hoped that increased efforts toward . attracting industry and commerce in the county will assist in placing welfare recipients in private-sector jobs, The contracts are a result of the county's agreement with the Ohio Department of Human Services and the Ohio Works First program, which overhauled the stale's welfare systern and placed more responsibility wilh local governmen.ts for !h~ pro.vision of public assistance and JOb trammg, man attempl to move cash welfare . r~cipients into paying jobs.

By.JOHN McCARTHY AUocllltecl Preu Writer COLUMBUS (AP)- The House plans its first hearings of the new legislative session this week with old hands guiding most of the committees. But will that help the chairmen·in·waiting who will take over the commit· tees two years from now? . : Nineteen of the 22 full House committees will be chaired by representa· lives who must leave the Legislature in 2001 because of term limits. " Of the six committees with new chairmen this session, only one will be ~UJ~Und for the next session. There is one new committee- Technology and Elections- and its chairman, Rep. Ron Amstutz of Wooster, will be gone in·2001. Republicans, wljo dominate the House 59·40, chair all the commit· tees. (JI the Senate, where Republicans hold a 21·12 edge, just four of its 12 com· mittee chairman cannot return in 2001. Term limits for veteran senators re· ~lected this year, however, will kick in two years later. The chairmanship of the powerful House Finance and Appropriations Committee opened up when Gov. Bob Taft appointed its two· term chairman, Tom Johnson, as his budget director. ,;. Speaker JoAnn Davidson replaced Johnson with Rep. E.J. Thomas of G\>lumbus, a longtime committee member who is in his eighth and final te)lll. Thomas will preside over hearings into the next two-year state budget, which Taft must submit by March 15. .. The finance panel's five subcommittees, however, are serving somewhat as a proving ground for the underclassmen. Three of the subcommittees' chairmen - Kerry Metzger of New Philadelphia, John Carey of Wellston, and Rex Damschroder of Fremont will be eligible for one more term after the current two-year session. Also, 16 of the committees have vice chairmen wfto will be back in 2001, if they are re-elected. Davidson, R-Reynoldsburg, said the subcommittee and vice-chairman appointments were made to give the members "nuts and bolts" experience for the next session. " She added that some spots may open later in this session if term-limited snembers move on to other jobs. Three members have already left this month o~are leaving early in February. "We hope to work them into the system by ... giving them some experi· erice there," Davidson said Friday. "The way this session is going, there p{Obably are going to be some other changes." ' She said she encouraged the chairmen to help bring the other members up to speed on the legislative process, a point she also made in a speech to the House on the session's first day. ' .• "A lot depends upon what a chairman gives you an opportunity to do. I would encourage my chairman. to include their vice chairmen in all the disc:Pssions that they have," Davidson said. • Rep. Amy Salerno, chairwoman of the Civil and Commercial Law Com· niiltee, agreed. Salerno, who will be eligible to serve another term, is one of thr~e committee chairs in the House who will be allowed to return. The oth· ef)l are Criminal Justice Chairwoman Ann Womer Benjamin, R·Aurora, and X~terans Affairs Chairman Bill Taylor, R-Norwalk. "We should try to help the new members as much as we can," said Saler· n,P, R-Columbus. "It depends on the chairman. Some do (help) and some don't."

Journey to impeachment vote began with a slave .Deciding the fate of a president was beyond imagining for a Milwaukee typesetter in 1854. The issue that dominated debate that year was the newly passed KansasNebraska Act. It polarized slave and free states by overtwning earlier com· promises that kept slavery confined to the South. Local voters could now decide if Kansas and Nebraska would enter the Union as free or'stave states. Inevitably, that set off a race between abolition and pro-slavery set· tlers who flocked to the territories to sway Ute elections. , In May of 1856, Edmund Ross joined the race. Ross, 28, led a small train of oxdrawn wagons and settlers out of Mil· waukee on a three-month trek across Ute plains to a place so inflamed by civil strife it was called "Bloody Kamas.'' In Kansas, lhe Ohio-born Ross became a leader of the free-state move, ment and an anti-slavery publisher. He joined the Republican party and was a member of the convention that wrote Ute constitution Utat eventually brought Kansas into the Union as a free state.

Edmund Ross, whQ had two horses shot out from under him in just one day of baUle, returned to newspapering. Then a gunshot changed his life. In July 1866, Sen. James H. Lane, R-Kan., also a Republican, committed suicide. The state's governor sought someone with "backbone" to replace him and turned to Ross. The new senator had no liking for Andrew Johnson's policies. He arrived in Washington as the impeachment fight broke out in earnest. A two-thirds majority, or 36 votes, was needed to convict and force Democrat Johnson from the White House. Unlike others, Ross told no one how he would vote. His vote beoune crucial. When the chief justice began the roll call on the first article of impeachment on May 16, 1868, the silence was so intense that senators on the floor could hear the tinkling of a woinan's earring in the public gallery overhel!'l. Ross called the silence "deathlike." R05S voted "not guilty" three times, once on the 16th, twice more a&r a ten-day r=ss. All three tallies wen: 35· 19 for conviction - one vote short of the two-thirds vote needed. ' The reaction was volcanic. "Unfortunately the rope with which Judas lscariot hanged himself is lost, but Jim Lane's pistol is at your ser· vice," read one telegram from Kansas. He was vilified across the north, threatened, hanged in effigy. "This storm of passion will soon pass away (though) none but God can ever know the struggle it has oost me," Ross wrote his wife. Ross was denied reelection in 1872. But then> was ·one more act. In the 1880i, after an exploratory trip, Ross moved his family to New · Mexico territory when: he ran a newspaper, wrote articles, opened a job printing shop and, a&r studying law, opened a law practice. , Grover Qcveland, the first Democrat since Johnson to occupy the White House, named Ross governor of the New Mexico territory. His return to public service lasted four years, ending when Republicans reclaimed the presi· dency four years later. ' . By then it was time to justify the past In 1896 Ross published a book, "The Impeachment and Trial of Andrew Johnson."

For Ross it was the begiMing·of a chain of events that would lead to a seat · in the United States Senate, a decisive voice in the impeachment trial of Andrew Johnson and the searing con· demnation of millions of his fellow citizens. But all of that was 14 years in the future when Ross left the printing shop of the newspaper he worked for in Mil· waukee and joined rioters battering down a jail door. The mob freed Joshua Glover, captured under the Fugitive Slave Act. There is renewed interest in Ross this year as President Clinton is on trial in the Senate after his impeachment by the House. · Interest was originally stirred in I 956 when Sen. John F. Kennedy, in "Profiles in Courage," singled out Ross for a vote which not only allowed Johnson to stay m office but maintained the presidency as a co~tutional equal with Congress.

Today the Pentagon reported two Iraqi violations of the "no-fly" zone in northern Iraq and said a Marine Corps EA-6B Prowler, an electronic warfare plane, fired a high-speed anti-radiation missile after being targeted with radar at an Iraqi air defense site near the city of Mosul. Results of the Prowler attack, which occurred about 6 a.m. EST, were unknown. Also today, F-15E strike aircraft fired guided bombs and an AGM-130 ' missile at anti -aircraft artillery emplacements and surface-to-air missite sites, also in northern Iraq, the Pentagon said. Other details were not immediately available, spokesman Col. Richard Bridges said. Bridges said there were no reports of confrontations in southern Iraq today. In Baghdad, Saddam urged Iraqis to be patient in the battle against the United States, saying in a speech car~ ried by the official Iraqi News Agency: "Your blood will not go in vain." Zinni said Iraq tripled the number of surface-to-air missile, or SAM, batteries in the southern "no-fly" zone patrolled by U.S. and British warplanes in recent weeks. He said Iraqi fighter aircraft are trying to draw allied pilots into " SAM-bushes" in hopes of shooting one down. Zinni said he could not yet confirm that the extensive damage and casualties to residential areas in and around the southern port city of Basra was caused by errant U.S. missiles. "We deeply regret any civilian casualties regardless of what the cause may be," he said. "But these exchanges have been initiated by Sad· dam Hussein." He said the United States wanted its Arab allies in the region to understand that U.S. missile attacks do not target civilians. "No one can guarantee that these strikes will not have errors or we might not have errant ordnance, but we do take every possible attempt to ensure that that doesn 't happen," Zinni said. The four-star Marine Corps gener· al said it was premature to consider apologizing for the civilian losses. Zinni said air crews that returned from Monday's mission over southern Iraq were interviewed as part of a painstaking effort to pinpoint what happened in the attacks. ..

Man accused of sending fal court notices to officials LEBANON (AP) -A man who refuses to recognize the court system is accused of harassing several city and county officials by i511uing false court notices to them. Larry Roten of Oregonia was indicted under a state law that makes it a felony to issue false judgments and liens without the authorization of a legitimate court. The law is aimed at stopping common-law suits by anti-government activists. . Roten runs a common-law group called Hand-to-lland Combat Ministries, authorities said Monday. He was indicted Friday on two counts of intimidation and four counts of using a "sham legal process" in a series of illegitimate court notices sent to city and county officials during the past year. Cincinnati attorney Mark Piepmeier was appointed as special prosecutor because Warren County Pros· ecutor Tim Oliver is one of the alleged victims in the case. If convicted, Roten could be sentenced to a maximum of 13 years in prison. Roten, who is free on his own recognizance, is scheduled fot; arraignment Feb. S. He could nqt M reached for comment Monda~> There was no telephone listing fof him. , Piepmeier said Monday that Roten's disagreement with the ort;;l cials stemmed from a probate co\IR' · case involving Roten's 90-year-old father, Ambrose Roten. In February,. a probate judge rescinded Latry Roten's guardianship of his fathet< after the elder Roten was found lasti winter wandering city streets wiih•· out a coat and with soiled clothes.•• I Mter his father was put in a nun/ing home, Roten filed what appeartll· to be lawsuits against those involved in the case, Piepmeier said. ' The false documents mailed ·til• the officials cite a court in KentuckY, with a post office box address and threaten recipients with properly' liens if they don't pay the judgmennagainst them, the prosecutor said. ·• · Lebanon is about 30 miles north of Cincinnati. · ?• CDC says the death toll from ·•· "" tainted meat up to 12, more' states involved, including Ohio :: CHICAGO (AP) - The death Park, Bil Mar, Sara Lee Deli Me~f toll from tainted meat linked to a and Sara Lee Home Roast. . ~ara Lee Corp: subsidiary 's processThe states reporting listeria infe<:,:." mg plant has nsen to 12. lions are Arizona, Connecticut,· .

Such devices burn fuel to produce power to ensure.uninterrupted service during an outage. : "Standby generators should only be installed by a licensed electrician, working to meet the National Electrical Code and local ·ordinances," said Gre gory Pauley, manager for AEP's Athens District. "This will ·ensure that the generator's circuits and AEP's circuits are not connected in other words are 'isolated' from . each other. If they're not proj>erly iso, 'lated, c ustomer generated power could flow back to the power line. As a .result, a worker, al!empting to restore power. could be electrocuted." Pauley further explained that, if not properly isolated, power distributed !rom the electric company could flow back to the generator, cause overheating and possibly an electrical fire at the residence. Pauley says that portable generators that are not properly isolated could lead to 'the same~ hazards. To properly isolate por!able generatqrs, customers should never connect the · generator to an electrical outlet. Instead, appliances should be connected directly to the generator. For more information, contact AEP at the toll-free 800 number iist· ed in your local telephone directory and ask for a copy of the brochure, "When the Lights G_o Out: Making the Best of a Power Outage," which addresses generator safety as well as commonsense tips for dealing with outages. : · (Editor's note: A lawsuit outlines l!le grievances of one party .against another, It does not establish guilt or. !nno.cence.) .

St. Rl i · , Tuppera Plains, Ohio 45783 740.985-3813 BECKYBAER Meigs County Extension Agent Family and . Consumer SclenceiiCo~munlty Development Have you thought about buying a serger or overlock sewing machine? They can really save time when sewing. They are able to sew a seam, trim off the excess seam allowance and overcast the edges in less time than it takes to just sew a seam on ·a conventional sewi ng machine. The regular machine stitches approximately 900 stitche s per minute, while the serger can stitch about 1500 stitches within a minute. . When you calc ulate the fact that the serger is sew ing, trimming and overcasti ng all at the same time, you can q~ickly see that . the serger can save you an ~ normou s amount of sewing time . • If this information puts you in the mood to purchase a serg· er, you ill need o think about several consideration s before buying. Sergers may have two, three, four or five threads. Decide which will be most beneficial to you. Two thread machines may only overcast seams that have already been sewn on a conventional machine. Three thread machines wt\1 overcast a trimmed seam, but some areas may still need to be rein· forced with a regularly sewn seam. Four and five thread machines use two needles that stitch, trim and overcast strong seams. The four and five thread machin'e s are more versatile because they can also be used without the extra needle, giving the 'seam the appearance of the three thread stitching. The seam from the five thread machine is a chain stitch . · . Next check to see how easy it is to thread the se rger. It will be helpful if there is a color-coded threading guide and a diagram illustrating how the machine should be threaded. Practice thread ing the machine before purchasing it: You should also examine the tension diSks to be sure that they are easily accessible and simple to use . You will probably be adjusti ng them often during your sewing. Sergers may be equipped to stitch a rolled hem in addition to the overlock stitch. Find out if converting to the rolled hem proc.e dure is uncomplicated. It is possible that a separate attachment may be needed. See if it is included in the price of the machine, or if you have to pay extra for it. Determine if there are other features that you might utilize . Carrying handles, a bag to catch the seam trimmings, storage for accessories, and suction cups that will help secure the machine during·operation are all considerations. A differential feed may also' be included that ensures even feeding of the fabric. It can be adjusted to prevent puckering of so me fabrics of used to automatically gather the fabric while st itching. You may want to take advantage of classes that are offered to help you learn how to maximize the use of your serger. The owner's manual and books explaining serger :use can be benefic ial in getting the most from your machine. Remember, however, that you will still need a conventional sewi ng machine, for there are several se wing operations that a serge r cannot do -for example, sewing on buttons, making buttonholes , and installing zippers and pockets. Finally, always buy from a reliable merchant. Your purchase ·should be from someone that you know will guarantee the product and will provide dependable service. • RECOGNIZED- Meigs County Council on Aging, Inc. and the Caring and Sharing Support Group held an appreclatlol"! and recog• nlt(on dinner for caregivers and the agency··a ampkyed Home Health Aides.

In come cases, workers have been paying higher co·paymcnts on each prescription. Co-payments that used to average SS or $10 per prescription can now be as·high as $20 or even $40.

But the question is a judgment question: Do we believe it is grounds for overturning an election.The answer is no." GOP Sen. John Chafec of Rhode Island, a moderate, proposed ground rules for the witness depositions that would set a four-hour maximum for each sworn interro-: galion - two hours of questioning by the House team and two hours for the president's lawyers. Witnesses could be questioned only about areas of factual dispute, and the sessions would be videotaped for senatOrs ,to view. Rep.
