By Bob Hoeflich Don't expect to see much of Rose Sisson, lifelong Pomeroy resident, in the next couple of months. ·Rose 's home on East Second St., was extensively damaged by fire last Thesday morning. Her insurance company was contacted 'and made arrangements for a Marietta firm which specializes in such matters to handle the problems. The firm will clear out the house and salvage items that are still usable and clean them up. They will also do the repairs so that Rose can return to her home. Meantime, Rose has gone to Galion where she will be with her son and daughter-in-law, Fred and Alice Sisson, until she can move back into her house. Rose has high praise for the Pomeroy Fire Department which she says had 16 firefighters on the scene within seven minutes after receiving · the call, and the Middleport and Rutland Fire Departments which also dispatched firemen to the scene to assist. The firemen did a terrific job, Ro se reports. By the way, tne· fire which started in a house n-.xt door to the Sisson residence was discovered by Tim Oakes, a truck driver. Oakes was sitting in his truck on the Rite Aid parking Jot about 3' • a.m. waiting to make his !lelivery to the store at about 4 a.m.. when he 'spotted the blaze. Oakes called the fire department and assisted in a number of ways in alerting occupants as to what was happening. The saga of the frozen Ohio River continues and it has been concluded that the river must have frozen over several times. It's interesting to note that everyone who remembers the frozen river has to be at least 50 and then some since the most recent report given .was in 1948. The frozen nver has stirred a lot of memories and I can't help but wonder if I have any young readers. If so, they are too young. of course, to respond to the river freezing over question. Ferndora Story remembers the rive~ freezing over in 1936 or 1937. She was a stud~nt at Pomeroy High School and could watch the frozen river from that vantage point. She comments, however, that she was afraid to walk across. By the way, Ferndora reports that Eula Jeffers has undergone surgery at the Holzer Medical Center. Her room number is 206 but she could be home by now so perhaps, yo~ should send cards to her home at 713 Short Fourth St., Middleport. . Austin Wolfe of Racine recalls that the river froze over in 1947 and 1948 and as a small child he watched activities on the ice from the Crow building. Betty Frazier of Middleport recalls the J936 river freeze. She was living in the Point Pleasant area and walked across the river near the Henderson bridge. George Nesselroad of Pomeroy remembers the river freezing in 1948 and he and Paul Werry took Werry's small car onto the ice. Josephine Ritch)e who lives on Route 248 remembers walking across the Ohio in February, 1940. June Sayre rell'embers a freeze in 1936 and her sister, Marge Reuter, sent along newspaper photos showing action on the ice in 1940. At that time a boat, The Fleet, became ice bound near Letart Falls and the late Otis Knopp was night watchman on the boat. Another photo shows the late· Bert Grimm on the ice following a fall while skating. Of course, the weather really had to be cold for the river to freeze over so here's an attempt to warm you up. Mrs. Marvin Jacks reported sighting robins at her Wright St. home in Pomeroy Monday morning and felt that the thought of'spririg coming might help to keep us all smiling. Society Scrapbook .

' By DAVID SHARP Associated PftSS Writer OXFORD, Maine (AP) Cross-cotd.try ski center operators who once shooed away canine companions are now pursuing cuslo'l'ers who take their (our-legged friends along on romps in th~ woods. The result is more and more gr9omed trails dedicated to dog owners. They're known in the business as "loop de poop" trails. · The owner of the Caner's Cross Country Ski Centers allows dogs on all of his trails with one caveat: owners pay full price for a daily doggie pass that will be confiscated for any misbehavior. " We've never had a problem,' ~ said David Carter, who lets dogs romp alongside their owners 0 n 22 miles of trails in Oxford, about 35 miles northwest of Portland. It's a growing doggie-friendly trend at cross-country !kl centers. Dogs were allowed at only a handful of trails a decade ago. Now they're allowed at 53 of 212 areas that belong to the Cross Country Ski Areas Association, according to Chris Frado, president and executive director of the Winchester, N.H.-based organization. iFife reason is simple: For sheer exuberance, it's hard ' to beat the reaction of a dog crunchin~ around in fresh ,. fluffy snow. So It's only natural ·tnat skiers want to let their <;logs tag along. . Michae_l' ·_Bourque of Portland said his -dog Susi, · a Labrador retriever, is 9 years old and gray around the muzzle.

Housing construction jumps to .12-year high in January By DAVE SKIDMORE Aeaoc!ated Preea Writer WASHINGTON_ (AP)- J;>espite icy weather in the Northeast and Midwest, construction of new homes jumped 3.8,percent in_January to a 12-year high, extending the building boom of 1998 into the new year. . · Builders started construction of houses and apartments at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.80 million, the most since December 1986, the Commerce Department said today. The Federal Reserve said today that production at th~ nation's factories, mines and utilities was unchanged in January after a lackluster 1998. Builders in 1998 started 1.62 million units; an 11-year high, and economists had expected January would mark the start of a modest declin~ during 1999. The conditions thai drove hOmes sales and construction in 1998 - low mortgage rates, plentiful jobs and high stock prices- continued into 1999. In January, starts or single-family homes rose 1.2 percent to an annual rate of 1.39 million, a 15-year high. Starts of apartments shot up 17.1 percent to a rate of 410,000. The South more than accounted for the national gain. Starts there jumped 22.3 percent to a rate of 890,000, the most in 13 years. They rose 3.7 percent in the West to a rate of 446,000. They plunged 2S.3 percent - the sharpest decline in five years- to a rate of 316,000 in the Midwest and slipped 3.2 percent to a rate of 152,000 in the Northeast Housing permits rose 2.8· percent to a seasoMIIy adjusted annual rate of 1.78 million, the most since July 1986. Sluggishness in industrial production continued ·to reflect the loss of export sales to economically troubled countries in Asia and elsewhere. Manufacturing output edged a seasonally adjusted 0.1 percent higher. Gains in the output of autos, computers, semiconductors, lumber and furniture offset declines for aircraft, steel, clothing and tobacco. Utility output rose 0.2 percent but mining output plunged 1.8 percent, reflecting a sharp drop in coal production and lackluster oil and gas extraction. The various changes left U.S. i~dustry operating at 80.5 percent of its capacity. . That's the lowest level in more than six years and means industry has the capacity to increase output,·if necessary, without incurring in nation-causing production bottlenecks. ) 'i \ • 1- �..

E- -"' - · It,_ .•• ; GUest edUorlal · and Jan Moler · The Senate's' acquittal of President Ointon on charges of perjury and obstruction of juslice means our constitutional system worked as intended. No future president -· indeed, no citizen -- should draw from these events the lesson that It's OK to lie, be it under oath or any· where else. The stench from this tawdry affair should be enough to convince officeholders everywhere to tell the truth, even when it's incon· venient or embarnissing. · ·It worked as intended because the Senate under~tood that it would be catastrophic to remove a president from office absent a public outcry for such action. It worked because the Framers wisely left only two choices available in an impeachment trial: convict and remove, or acquit. Some lawmakers tried. to flaunt this stricture with a "con- jobs. And that our constitutional system is strong enough to survive a very public tug-of-war between two deeply flawed men, Bill Clinton and Kenneth Starr. · EXCESSIVE SECRECY., There was a time, not long ago, when Bill Clinton seemed genuinely committed to shedding the veil of government secrecy that· pervaded the Cold War. That golden age appears to be over. . - For deqdes, government agenci.,; •• especially the Pentagon •• used the classification stamp to li;eep Amerjcans blissfully ignorant of the true workings of out government.

But Tenet somehow thoughtt~ · , vict-bul-don't-remove'' scenario. A quiet hero Had that happened, impeachment would have become just another tool for future legislatures to punish presidents with whom they disagree. The bar for impeachment is high, as it should be. It worked because the House of Representatives impeached a man who surely lied under oath, and prompted others to lie for him, thereby indelibly etching Ointon into the history books as a grave abuser of the public trust. And it worked, primarily, because scimetimes it's good to rattle the foundations a little bit. For the past year, the Lewinsky affair has produced a long-overdue national conversation about the import of private conduct on pub- · lie affairs. Surely the issues here are not as great as civil rights, women's suffrage, Vietnam or other topics that have divided Americans in this century. But like those issues, the president's conduct forced us to confront matters that make us uncomfortable, yet need to be discussed. · Nobody •• not the president, nor his accusers, and certainly not the press •• comes out of this looking good. But maybe that, in itself, is a good . thing. · With any (uck, the media will now think twice before t~y make a national iS.ue of conduct that is essenttally private. Maybe political parties will put more of their resources. into making policy than probing the private lives of their opponents. Future presidents will certainly think twice before leering at the office help. If there's a lesson to be drawn, it's that the public will support politicians who focus on thoir By U.S. Rep Tad Strickland . . .. I am sometimes concerned that the mcreasmg harshness of our poht1cal : system is robbing Americans of the opportunity to find inspiration from our · nation 's leaders. With the political parties constantly at odds, I'm sure that many people are simply pushed away, far too busy with family and work to spare energy sorting out Washington's disagreements. · There are still; however, genuine heroes • people worth looking up to left in Congress. The celebration of Black History Month right now reminds me of the moving story of my friend Congressman John Lewis from Atlanta, . Ga. · : He was only 18 when he went to Nashville in the 1950's to attend col· · lege. But within a few short years he would become a major leader of the ,~;ivil rights movement· organizing student sit-ins in Nashville, participating in Freedom Rides to cha)lenge segregation on buses, helping Martin Luther King, Jr. organize the March on Washington, and leading the march on Selma and nearly losing his life there. For such a young man during such a difficult time, he exhibited extraordinary bravery and honor. He rejected violence, convinced that peaceful protest was the only way to free our nation of segregation and discriinina. lion . not that his commitment to nonviolence protected him from the violence of others. John recently told an interviewer with the News Hour with . ·Jim Lehrer about the violence that accompanied the Freedom Rides: · ;: : "The Supreme Court had issued a decision banning segregation in areas ·~Slf public transportation, and we decided to test that decision," He said. :•Lit· In ihe early part of his administration, Clinton damaging to tell the world just how much mone9 .~tie did we know as we boarded the two buses, that one of the buses·would · tried to change all that.

Reedsville is going. Portland is next. Soon all of Meigs COunty's Ohio River bottom lands will be gone. What is Meigs County's future, when our land is gone? · • With development of the Buffington Island Civil War Battlefield as a historic site - tourism will increase, resulting in business being built in the area and tourism dollars coming into the county. · · ·· · . • With preservation - the local school district would maintain a tax base.

"It's created an atmosphere of distrust, but l hope we can move beyond that. "We haven't s~nt much time together since the Senate vote, but leading up to that vote·, there was a kind of quiet anger on the part of people respectful, but npt much mixing," Strickland added.
