ALTONA — New YorkState police were driving onIrona Road in Altona earlySaturday morning, Oct. 20,when they noticed largeamounts of smoke pouringout of a shed.

They found a meth lab in-side.

Two men, one from Al-tona, now face charges re-lated to manufacturingmethamphetamine.

It was around 2 a.m. whenpolice spotted the smokecoming from the shed lo-cated at 404 Irona Road inAltona.

Troopers were approach-ing the area when Danny R.

Horses and zombies raise money in Morrisonville

MORRISONVILLE — It seemed more like early eveningthan morning under an overcast sky as bright orange andyellow leaves fell from the trees lining the winding dirt roadand onto the heads of hungry zombies.

They hid just off the lonely road, some crouching behindfallen rock walls, others breathing heavily, waiting as theoblivious runners approached.

Then, just as the first group of 10 or less crossed theirpath, they erupted from the forest and grabbed the racer ’spink flags, growling as some runners employed footballfakes to escape unscathed, shrieking as they quickened theirpace.

“We love chasing people in the woods, and we like to helpout the community,” said Kyle Kelly, a Plattsburgh State stu-dent, member of the school’s baseball team and zombie fora day. “We do a lot of community service events.”

PLATTSBURGH — Fiber optic telecom-munications will improve the quality ofhealth care at a time when health care isasked to do more with less.

Rural health care facilities in eight coun-ties in northern New York will have highquality, affordable digital connectivity nec-essary to share telemedicine and telehealthservices starting in late November.

The Adirondack – Champlain Telemedi-cine Information Network (ACTION) is a re-gional initiative formed to create a fiber op-tic telecommunications and telemedicinenetwork that connects eight participatinghospitals, 40 primary care facilities affiliat-ed with these hospitals and the St. Regis Mo-hawk Tribe Health Care Facility.

“Elizabethtown Community Hospital hashad access to its own fiber optic lines, alongwith the ability to offer telemedicine, for anumber of years,” said Jane Hooper, Direc-tor of Community Relations for Elizabeth-town Community Hospital. “The comple-tion of this regional project will give ECHthe opportunity to expand its telemedicinecapabilities to any hospital within the re-gion; increasing access to specialty care fromits facility in Elizabethtown and its commu-nity-based health centers.

“Additionally, it will allow ECH to easilyshare patient information; increasing patientsafety by alerting providers to allergies orpre-existing conditions that may affect treat-ment.”

The network encompasses Clinton, Essex,Franklin, Rensselaer, Saratoga, St.Lawrence, Warren and Washington countiesin New York and extends to Fletcher AllenHealth Care in Burlington, Vermont.

Participants outlined the project at a pressconference at CVPH Medical Center, dis-cussing the merits of the program and thank-ing government officials who helped secure

the funding.All gathered stressed that the fiber optic

telecommunications system will improvehealth care quality, patient safety and maxi-mize cost efficiencies at a time when healthcare must do more with less.

Lawmakers who played a key role in gain-ing funding for the project included Con-gressman Bill Owens, Senator Betty Littleand Assemblywoman Janet Duprey.

The Research Foundation of the State Uni-versity of New York is the legal entity thatadministered the FCC program for the RuralHealth Care Pilot Program contract of$8,998,004, awarded to ACTION. They wereassisted in this effort by the Fort Drum Re-gional Health Planning Organization.

CVPH Medical Center is the lead eligibleprovider for the FCC Rural Health Care Pi-lot Program and SUNY serves as the fiscaladministrator.

Plattsburgh State provides that link toSUNY’s Research Foundation, a private,nonprofit educational corporation that ad-ministers externally funded contracts andgrants for and on behalf of SUNY campuses.

The Development Corporation of theNorth Country will utilize multiple localservice provider networks to connect AC-TION member locations throughout the re-gion.

“This will allow for the continuity of carethroughout any of these facilities, regardlessof where the patient finds him or herself,”

“Hooper said. “The ability of these hospitalsto share information through the securednetwork helps improve healthcare qualityby ensuring the availability of a patient’sEMR, test results, x-rays, CT scans, etc. tophysicians at these facilities. It also helps tomaximize cost effectiveness by ensuring thattests are not duplicated, and that all doctorshave access to the same information.”

North Countryman Editorial

The recent presidential and vice presidentialdebates have been closely watched by theAmerican Public. In an era when television

has moved away from serials, dramas and sit-comsin favor of reality TV, and the major media outletshave moved from watchdog journalism to enter-tainment news, we should consider replacing theState of the Union Address and infrequent pressconferences with live debates.

Our presidents and congressional leaders havefailed to serve their constituents, allowing gridlockand partisan feuds to rule the day. Instead of feel-ing hopeless, awaiting the next election cycle to seeif a true leader can emerge, why not demand thatthey debate the issues they all claim they want tosolve? Instead of pawns we could become partici-pants in the live drama by becoming far more awareof what is going on in our nation’s capital.

At least once per year the president should spendan hour-and-a-half debating major issues with amember of the opposing party, such as the Speakerof the House or Senate Majority Leader, and explainwhat they are doing or why they haven’t accom-plished the many promises they so adamantly toldus they would accomplish if elected. This wouldgive each side a stage to bring the compelling is-sues before the American public. Nowhere to hide,nowhere to run. They can call each other liars andinsist the facts have been twisted, but the major is-sues of the day would be front and center and infull view of the American public instead of present-ed at staged, scripted events.

Take for example the current issues swirlingaround the now confirmed terrorist attack in Beng-hazi. How much would we know today were it notfor the debates and upcoming elections? The pressdidn’t demand accountability until more detailswere coming out as a result of the debates. How se-rious are presidential appearances and interviewson shows like the View, late night comedy shows orEntertainment Tonight? Our nation’s leaders havebeen able to hide behind subordinates and enter-tainment celebrities instead of facing the nationand responding publicly and personally to theircritics.

Take for example a recent appearance on ABC’sthe View. Whoopi Goldberg barely let Ann Romneysettle into her seat before quizzing the candidate’swife, asking why Mitt Romney didn't serve in Viet-nam, if the couple is prepared to console familiesof fallen soldiers, their stance on abortion and is-sues related to the Romneys’ Mormon faith. Unlike

a recent joint appearanceon the show by PresidentObama and First LadyMichelle Obama, duringwhich questioningranged from how roman-tic is the president, whathis mood is like given thepressures he faces anddetails pertaining to the couple's anniversary cele-bration. This interview took priority over meetingwith world leaders at the UN while in New YorkCity.

Facing off directly against those who adamantlyoppose their actions would better enable the Amer-ican public to determine the shortcomings of ournation’s leaders. If the problem is Congress, thepresident can call them out and ask the public fortheir assistance to move issues through the Houseor Senate. If legislation isn’t passing because con-gress is loading up bills with pork barrel items thepresident can specifically address those issues tothe public. But if it’s clear that the president isn’tproviding the appropriate leadership as promisedto move the country forward, the public and thepress will be compelled to demand greater account-ability.

To make the discussions more focused and to en-sure the moderator is not spellbound by the partic-ipant’s celebrity, nor bullied due to their powerfulperseverance, I would suggest we enlist the servic-es of a former US president to control the evening’sdiscussions as the moderator. By keeping the pressoff the stage their primary role becomes reportingand not interjecting themselves or their opinionsinto the issues at hand. Who knows, it might evenproduce a return to more balanced journalism.

Should one party control all three houses the or-ganizers would then ask for a national oppositionleader to step forward and provide the opposingviewpoint. My final suggestion would be for theLeague of Women Voters to be the non-partisan or-ganization to oversee the debates as opposed tosubordinates of those debating or party officials.

We must find a way to break the deadlock thathas continued to grow worse in Washington. Thismight be a way to do just that. If you think this ideahas merit spread the word—it might just take root.

Behind the Pressline

Viewpoint

Lets keep the debates goingIt’s time for a change

With the presidential campaign in its final days, enthusi-asm for this year ’s election is nearing a peak. It’s toobad your vote won’t matter.

That statement is heresy in the United States, a nation wherewe’re taught almost from birth the value and responsibility of vot-ing in a democracy — but it’s true in our case. That’s because nomatter how we vote, New York’s 29 electoral votes will go to Presi-dent Obama.

That’s the nature of the Electoral College, which was establishedby our founding fathers in the Constitution as a compromise be-tween election of the president by a vote in Congress and election ofthe president by a popular vote of citizens. When we vote, we areactually voting for “electors” who will represent us in the actualvote for president.

The Electoral College consists of 538 “electors.” A majority of 270electoral votes is required to elect the president. A state’s allotmentof electors equals the number of members in its congressional dele-gation.

In every state but two, Maine and Nebraska, the Electoral Collegeis winner take all. That means a candidate gets all of New York’s 29electoral votes, even if he wins the state popular vote by one ballot.

Because New York City is so heavily Democratic, New YorkState’s 29 electoral votes will go to Obama. No matter how passion-ate the debate may be throughout the North Country, Obama willwin New York State.

Our vote, at least for president, means nothing.We’re not alone. In fact, virtually all the pundits believe this pres-

idential election will be determined by seven to nine “swing” states,states where the popular vote could push the electoral vote eitherway.

That’s why Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney arewilling to spend days, even weeks, and millions of dollars in stateslike Ohio, Virginia and Florida while ignoring New York and otherstates.

Candidates generally like the Electoral College. It allows them tofocus their time, energy and money on key states. Citizens shouldnot be as happy with a system that disenfranchises so many voters.

If our president was elected by popular vote candidates would beforced to appeal to all voters across the country. They would nolonger be able to simply write off entire regionals as a lost causeand simply take other states for granted.

It’s time that one man, one vote becomes more than a slogan. It’stime for everyone’s vote to count. Changing the Constitution is a se-rious, difficult thing, but it’s time to revisit the Electoral College.

Electoral College fails NY residents


Of course, that often oc-curs in small neighbor-hoods, with some

neighbors becoming the best offriends and others not necessari-ly liking each other but choosingto live amicably beside each oth-er, for the good of themselvesand the neighborhood as awhole.

Then there are those occasionalhorror stories in which the dis-like overrides everything andmini wars break out on the block,often resulting in destruction onboth sides and an overall sensein the neighborhood, or at leaston that block, or at the very leastbetween those two houses, apeace accord is needed.

Still, the best thing to do ismeet your neighbors, and this isespecially important when thereare transient populations.

Since I have been a journalistin this area, starting in March of2000, there was no end to horrorstories each semester in whichcollege students, often drunk, de-stroy parts of the neighborhoodsthey live within in the City ofPlattsburgh, usually the centercity, though groups of them arespread out throughout the city.

It should be noted that we aretalking about a small number ofstudents when compared to theentire student body at Platts-burgh State. I continue to consis-tently meet respectful students atthe university who are clearly ontheir way to bright futures.

But some students destroyproperty, scream on the wayhome and even enter residences,only to vomit and pass out insomeone else’s living room.

I recall one particular timewhen a single mother strugglingto pay the bills and put food onthe table while dealing with herchild’s severe and costly medicalissues had both side mirrors toher car practically kicked off,definitely destroyed, and otherproperty damaged too. She didnot need that expense and hassleon top of everything else.

But the university and the citystarted a partnership in whichpermanent residents meet andget to know their college neigh-bors shortly after the studentsmoved in. These residents evenspeak at orientation, directly ad-dressing the issues they faced.

The residents also went as faras to invite students over for

snacks and conversation, and tothis day many students sharewith their friends how they loveso-and-so’s chocolate-chip cook-ies.

I doubt this venture reduceddrinking among the students liv-ing their who decide to drink,but it has helped reduce thenumber of incidents - at least inthose neighborhoods where thisoccurs – in which students de-stroy property.

It’s really quite simple. Agroup of students go downtown

and drink, and on their wayhome, some of them, possiblydrunk, get that urge to destroyproperty or scream at the top oftheir lungs, but then they re-member, “Wait, this is Erica’shouse,” or, “John’s kids aresleeping right in that room and ifwe scream we are going to keepthem up.”

Obviously not all students par-ticipating in this destructive be-havior are affected this way andbehave this way, but if some ofthem are and the amount of de-struction or dangerous behaviorreduces, then this partnership isclearly working.

The students are less likely tobehave the same way if they sud-denly feel invested in theirneighborhood and if they knowand can put a face to neighborsthey have spoken with. Suddenly,some of them start to recall whothey are negatively impacting,and they happened to like Marieand her yummy brownies andhow nice she was to all of them.

I’ve heard some people in vari-ous parts of the city complainthis year about noise and proper-ty destruction. I know where Ilive there are a group of students

who party loudly each weekend,driving their cars dangerouslydown the road and at times mak-ing a mess.

Well, my suggestion to myselfand others is to get to know thesestudents. Have a conversationwith some of them and ask themabout themselves, sharing a littletoo. I wouldn’t suggest doingthis while the party is occurringor when they are walking homebuzzed, but if an opportunityarises, offer an introduction, sothey can feel part of the commu-nity and know when they behavecertain ways they are impactingpeople they have met.

I would suggest calling the col-lege to get contact informationfrom those who have already es-tablished such routines and seenthe results. They will likely beable to help you get started andoffer much wiser advice than Ican.

But the small amount of timeyou devote to this endeavorcould go a long way to improv-ing the quality of life in yourneighborhood.

Ferdinand

Dear style & substance:I am a shy person and really struggle with friendly chit-chat.

In fact, I struggle with adult conversation. I long to have closefriendships with other women, but seem to lack the ease with whichthey effortlessly chat. Even sitting at a sporting event causes meunease and is troublesome. Do you have some advice?

Just to set the record straight, even those who seem tobe “oh-so conversational and carefree” struggle withsocial situations from time to time. You are not

alone, but being shy really adds additional stress. An ex-cellent strategy to use in any social setting is to introduceyourself and ask the listener about herself. Keep the con-versation focused on the other person; your listener willfeel flattered that you find her (or him) interesting and it isan easy way to find commonalities that gently lead tofriendships.

Some women have lived and worked in the same placeforever, so they have established friends and don’t realizethat they are exclusive. They don’t even think to say ‘hello’to a new comer. It may be your job to say hello and thenjust start taking it all in. It is very valuable to your longterm well-being to ease into the social scene. Be your gen-uine self and be upbeat, people respond positively to posi-tive people. Remember, if you do not make the first move,others may think you are stand-offish – be low key andfriendly and people will respond in a kind and open man-

ner.Attending large meetings or events can make you feel

like an outsider, but joining a work group or action com-mittee within an organization; for example, a church, civicorganization or school, can give you the forum to makefriends while actually accomplishing something. It is espe-cially good for more reserved people, as everyone needs toparticipate to accomplish a goal and there can be a lot ofcamaraderie in that! Join a group that is meaningful to you– this sounds like common sense, but this will give youmore confidence to share your thoughts, ideas, and pas-sions.

What you are thinking about, what is on your mind, isprobably quite universal. The best conversations we havestream from a thought that someone is daring enough tobring up! We all like to laugh and poke fun at life! Whenyou surround yourself with like-minded people you willfind that your shyness begins to fade away and you arecomfortable and confident. Make no mistake, this is a skilland may not be easy when you first make an attempt;however, practice and small steps will lead you to a fulfill-ing social life.

Believe that your deepest anxieties are common to us all.Everyone has had their share of struggles, disappoint-ments and set-backs. Positive people tend to focus more onthe positive aspects of life, which sometimes can be inter-preted as “having the world by the tail”. You can create

this attitude as well,by focusing more onwhat you are ratherthan what you are not.

Know what is goingon in our communityand the world, byreading, watching thenews and paying at-tention to our localscene. Go to newplaces that are open-ing up, talk about them and see if others are doing thesame. Keep trying, you will find people that you connectwith simply by regularly putting yourself in some new sit-uations.

Chazy attorney suspended from practicing lawBy Stephen [email protected]

CHAZY — Marcia J. Moss has been prac-ticing law in New York since 1996.

She’s run into problems with billing in thepast.

More recently, complaints about theChazy attorney’s billing policy caused her tobe investigated by the Committee on Profes-sional Standards.

She was found guilty of misconduct andhas been suspended from practicing law forone year, according to the Appellate Divi-sion of the State Supreme Court.

The Committee on Professional Standardssaid Moss initially did not cooperate with itsinvestigation.

When she did cooperate, the court foundher guilty of misconduct relating to the “dis-organization” within her home-based lawpractice.

The Committee on Professional Standardscovers 28 counties and reviews complaintspertaining to the professional conduct of at-torneys practicing or conducting business in

the state’s Third Judicial Department.Moss was reprimanded three times previ-

ously for failing to cooperate with the com-mittee, an action that results in misconductif the attorney is under investigation.

After reviewing all material pertaining toMoss, the committee determined she shouldbe suspended from practicing law for oneyear.

She could shorten the suspension if she

completes six credit hours of continuing le-gal education classes in law office manage-ment, as well as other class work.

Moss must pass the Multistate Profession-al Responsibility Examination.

PLATTSBURGH — Clinton CommunityCollege’s nursing program is used to acco-lades.

Over the years, if it is not employers onboth sides of the lake raving about the nurs-ing graduates the school produces, it’s thegraduates themselves boasting about an in-tense program that sent them fully preparedand competitive into the workforce.

Several other organizations have recog-nized the graduates and the school’s pro-gram as well, on more than one occasion.

Now, yet again, the school has good newsto share as CCC’s May nursing graduates

post a 100 percent pass rate on the NationalCouncil Licensure Examination State Boardof Nursing Licensing Exams for 2012.

“We are extremely proud of our graduatesand nursing instructors,” said Dr. KathleenKasprzak, CCC Director of Nursing. “Itspeaks to the undeniable hard work anddedication put forth by both groups. Wecouldn’t have been successful without thesignificant efforts of the entire college facul-ty, staff and administrators, as well as allclinical site staff.”

Students who successfully completeCCC’s nursing program must pass the examin order to continue employment as a Regis-tered Nurse. The national exam measurescompetencies required to perform safely andeffectively as newly licensed nurses.

“Year after year, Clinton Community Col-lege nurses exceed the state and nationalpass rate on the NCLEX exam, but this year ’saccomplishment is especially remarkable,”said CCC President John Jablonski. “Ouroutstanding faculty and staff are helping toensure that Clinton County has a steady

stream of top-notch Registered Nurses tomeet the healthcare needs of our communi-ty.”

CCC’s nursing program started in 1977.This past May, 40 students graduated from

CCC’s nursing program under Kasprzak’ssupervision.

“In anticipation of the looming nursingshortage, it is our intention that we contin-ue to graduate the competent, caring nursesthat Clinton has come to be known for, in or-der to meet the healthcare needs or our localand regional communities,” Kasprzak said.

CCC has long been doing that, both local-ly and across the lake, with Fletcher AllenHealth Care once rating nurses it employedand saying those who graduated from CCCwere often its very best.

“I am very proud of our nursing students,faculty and staff,” said CCC Vice Presidentof Academic Affairs Dr. Cheryl Reagan.“Clinton County is fortunate that local stu-dents have access to such a high quality pro-gram.”

Clinton Community College nursing graduates shine

ELIZABETHTOWN — Government officials from Clinton andFranklin County came together with peers from Essex CountyOct. 22 to discuss the issue of sexual crimes, especially those in-volving children.

The sexual offenders laws task force committee was the brain-child of Jay Supervisor and county Chairman Randy Douglas af-ter he heard from residents in his town concerned about regis-tered sex offenders living near buildings in the AuSable ValleyCentral School District.

“There were some concerned citizens in different areas abouthow we share information and the rules and regulations in thesex offender registry laws,” Douglas said. “I think that it is im-portant today that as we share information that we all come awayfrom this realizing that we are doing what is best to keep ourcommunities safe.”

Essex County Attorney Daniel Manning said that enacting newlaws at a county level could prove a challenge with many beingchallenged on the basis of pre-emption.

“If the state of New York has enacted a law that already cov-ers a subject matter and has decided to take control of that field,then the courts will not allow local municipalities to enact locallaws that are accompanying the state law,” Manning said. “Youwould have a severe challenge to it.”

Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague took time totalk about the different levels of sexual offenders on the registry,saying that Level 1 offenders are the least likely to commit an-other offense, while Level 2 represented a moderate risk and Lev-el 3 a severe risk.

Sprague added that she felt the laws needed to be updated tobring them into the electronic age.

“One of my main complaints is that this has never been updat-ed to include cyber crimes,” she said. “There is nothing on heresaying that someone used a computer to gain a relationship witha child. We are seeing a lot of that where texting and messagingis being used as the first contact. If there is one suggestion Iwould make today, it would be to change that scoring system to

include cyber crimes.”Richelle Beach of the Clinton County Child Advocacy Center

said that in the bigger discussion of sexual offenses, the conver-sation has to also focus on prevention.

“Only 5 percent of the cases involve strangers,” Beach said. “Ihave only seen two cases of stranger case in Clinton County, andwe were unable to confirm one of those. The other was a girl thatwas trying to hook up with someone online. These are trusted in-dividuals. These are people that have taken years to build up thetrust of the family. We need to get away from the idea that theguy in the white van is going to pull up and run away with ourchild. It is happening with people that we know and it is hap-pening in homes where there are people that we thought wecould trust.”

Sprague also said that there needs to be services in place tohelp victims, especially in cases where families are pitted againsteach other.

“The biggest thing is having services for the child so that theydo continue to testify,” Sprague said. “Can you imagine being 6years old standing up in front of a courtroom and testify to abunch of strangers about being raped by someone you loved andthen have your mother get up on that stand and testify againstyou?”

Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley said that she hada new perspective after the meeting.

“I came in here thinking about where the sex offenders are liv-ing and that seems to be the least of our concerns,” Bartley said.“It seems that you are saying that we need to look at the biggerissues and child advocacy.”

“The people that we are worried about are in the homes rightnow,” Beach said. “The red dots on the map are people that weare already watching.”

Essex County Sheriff Richard Cutting said that his office rou-tinely makes patrols to watch out for registered offenders andmake between six to eight arrests annually of those who havemoved or changed their living circumstances without notifyingthe authorities.

Clinton County Sheriff Dave Favro also spoke about the SexOffender Watch program which is offered in his county.

“We need to do everything that we can to help preserve theyouth and keep them safe,” he said. “I think that there are a cou-ple of things that we need to look at. I'm convinced that what weneed to do as a society, collectively, is that we need to get togeth-er and we need to educate. We need to let the victims know be-fore they are victims that this is wrong.

People spend a lot of time in their home, and they spend a lotof time on their computer. We have to hit them in their homes,where they are going to be.”

The discussion also involved local school administrators.“This is the best first start for us,” AuSable Valley Superintend-

ent Paul Savage said. “What people are hearing here is no differ-ent then what we are hearing. I think that this is a great start, andI don't think that we should stop. We need to keep this discus-sion open.”

“There have been strong partnerships that have been estab-lished over time that I saw through my work when I was in Clin-ton County,” current Elizabethtown-Lewis interim and formerPeru Superintendent A. Paul Scott said. “It has been very help-ful for us to be able to learn more through the partnerships thatwe have. We were appreciated that we were invited to be hereto talk about this issue. I would encourage you based on whatwe have learned today to looking into the same type of partner-ship that there is in Clinton County.”

“One of the biggest things in my district is continuing to getthe information to us so we can get the information out to theparents and continue to educate the students and parents,” Mo-riah Superintendent William Larrow said. “We need to continueto get funding that will allow us to bring programs into the schoolwould be helpful for us.”

PLATTSBURGH — Abraham Lincoln’s atti-tude toward African Americans differs, depend-ing on the quote one reads or the scholar writingthe paper.

Still, America’s 16th president issued hisEmancipation Proclamation in 1863, and by 1865all black slaves nationwide were freed.

The New York State Museum’s traveling exhi-bition of the only surviving draft of the prelimi-nary Emancipation Proclamation in Lincoln’shandwriting was recently on display in the BurkeGallery, located in the Myers Fine Arts Buildingat Plattsburgh State.

“Everyone is very excited that it made it toPlattsburgh,” said Charline Faller, who works atthe Plattsburgh State Art Museum. “I think it is agreat experience and opportunity for the campusand local community to be part of our nation’shistory.”

The exhibit included the draft and the officialversion of the preliminary document, issued Sept.22, 1862.

The two documents were displayed along withthe manuscript of a Sept. 12, 1962 speech by theRev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to the New YorkState Civil War Centennial Commission in NewYork City.

King’s speech – typewritten with handwrittennotes throughout – argued that descendants of

slaves were still awaiting civil rights.Lincoln’s draft copy shows he was thinking

while writing and toying with the idea of com-pensating slaveholders. His fingerprint can beseen in the ink.

Lincoln served from March 1861 until his as-sassination in April 1865 and led the countrythough the American Civil War.

Lincoln openly disapproved of slavery, in onespeech saying, “I hate it because of the monstrousinjustice of slavery itself.”

He argued that while the founding fathers did-

n’t declare all were equal in “color, size, intellect,moral developments or social capacity,” they didconsider all men equal in “certain inalienablerights, among which are life, liberty and the pur-suit of happiness.”

At one point, Lincoln admitted that as presi-dent he would not free a single slave if it meantsaving the union, though he pointed out that hispersonal feelings remained the same.

Lincoln also said during a debate once thatwhites were superior to blacks.

Frederick Douglass, a former slave, leading

abolitionist and writer praised Lincoln’s Emanci-pation Proclamation, though he also referred toLincoln as the “white man’s president.”

The Emancipation Proclamation was an exec-utive order issued by Lincoln on Jan. 1, 1863, dur-ing the American Civil War and was not a lawpassed by Congress. It proclaimed all slaves inConfederate territory free, immediately freeing atleast 50,000 slaves with the rest freed as Unionarmies advanced.

The Proclamation did not outlaw slavery ormake ex-slaves citizens.

A rare copy of the Emancipation Proclamationsold for more than $2 million at auction in NewYork City this past June.

The exhibition at Plattsburgh State was accom-panied by free-standing pylons that providedcontext for the historic significance of the threedocuments.

The New York State Legislature bought the pre-liminary Emancipation Proclamation in 1865from Gerrit Smith, a well-known abolitionist.

The exhibition tours New York this month.A steady crowd of people stood in a line that

extended from the museum, down the stairs andto the door leading outside.

“This is a rare opportunity,” said Peter Ivarson,a Plattsburgh State student. “You can’t get muchmore significant than this.”

Standing behind Ivarson, Plattsburgh Statestudent Dustin Nicholson was eager to take apeek at history.

“I love the idea of coming and looking at his-tory,” he said. “I watch the History Channel allthe time.

“I cannot believe this is a handwritten docu-ment.”

New playgrounds for the North CountryBy Stephen [email protected]

PLATTSBURGH – At least one area playground will be alittle more fun for children.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that the New York StateOffice of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation willbuild and renovate playground areas at three state parksacross the North Country. The improvements are fundedwith $435,000 from Cuomo’s New York Works initiative.

Locally, Point Au Roche State Park will benefit from im-provements.

“It is important that children have a safe and engagingplace to play, and these NY Works projects will give themjust that in state parks across New York,” Cuomo said. “Thenumbers tell the story of more and more people visiting theparks, and I encourage everyone to visit these new and im-proved areas inside the state parks as well as the beautythat New York has to offer.”

The initiative entails building or creating new play-grounds at two state parks and installing new playgroundequipment at three state parks across the North Country.The playgrounds will be accessible to the disabled and fea-ture distinct areas for younger and older youth.

Each playground will feature a unique theme reflectingcharacteristics of the parks.

There will also be site improvements, including shadetrees or canopies, seating, water fountains and trail/walk-way connections to the rest of the park.

The parks in the North Country include Whetstone GulfState Park in Lowville, Higley Flow State Park in Colton,and Point Au Roche State Park in Clinton County.

Improvements at Point Au Roche include modernizingthe playground near the park’s swimming area with newequipment, such as a multi-platform climbing and slidingstructure, swing set, seesaws and rock climbing wall.

“I am pleased Point Au Roche State Park is among theparks that will receive a new playground,” said Assembly-woman Janet Duprey. “This beautiful park is a great loca-

tion for families to enjoy Lake Champlain and a day out-doors.

“Many people rallied a few years ago to keep the parkopen, and the addition of a new playground with accessi-bility for those with disabilities will be another feature tothe many benefits already available at Point Au Roche.”

Construction will begin during the off-season and theplaygrounds should be available to use by next spring.

State Parks plans to fix, modernize, or create more than50 playgrounds, largely in parks that higher numbers ofchildren visit. Works initiative is creating 20 new or im-proved playgrounds within the next year.

“Playgrounds are great places for kids to develop self-confidence as they challenge themselves physically,” saidSenator Betty Little. “Ensuring they are fun but also safe isobviously very important. I’m certain local families andtourists will appreciate the upgrades at Point Au RocheState Park, and I’m pleased to join with Gov. Cuomo to an-nounce this award.”

Medicine Horse Farmfrom page 1

Hundreds gathered at Medicine HorseFarm in Morrisonville for the Monster Dash5k and Goblin Gallup Kids Fun Run. Theevent was held to help raise funds for an in-door arena to help benefit the facility’s ther-apeutic programs.

“Last year the event helped raise funds fora heating system,” said Marie Postiglione-Dupell, who owns Medicine Horse Farm, anonprofit organization and PATH Interna-

tional Center dedicated to serving thosewith physical, medical and emotional dis-abilities.

Medicine Horse promotes physical well-ness and emotional healing in partnershipwith horses.

PATH International was founded in 1969to promote safe and effective therapeuticriding for the handicapped throughout theUnited States and Canada. It has nearly 800member centers and more than 6,300 indi-vidual members worldwide who help morethan 42,000 men, women and children withspecial needs yearly through a variety of

equine-assisted activity and therapy pro-grams.

The 5k course consisted of a wooded crosscountry trail system, while the 1-mile Gob-lin Gallup course took children through acorn maze and enchanted forest cross coun-try trail system.

Mimi Hawley, dressed as a harvest fairy,stood along the children’s course with Lilly,a horse at the facility dressed as a unicorn.

“It is remarkable what Marie does for thecommunity,” Hawley said.

Jackie Curilla, her son Luke and friend,Patrick Hagadorn, completed the GoblinGallup.

“We are here for fun and to support a greatorganization and to be chased by goblins,”said Curilla, a physical therapist at CVPHMedical Center.

Those who gathered for the event dressedup as ninjas, witches, Batman, Angry Birds,Dorothy and Toto and more.

As they walked around the grounds, theHeadless Horseman, dressed in black atop agiant black horse, kept watch.

Barbie Ero-Oneil’s son Gage is on theautism spectrum and participates at Medi-

cine Horse.“He loves the horses and he speaks a lot

here, which is something he doesn’t normal-ly do.”

Darlene Burl arrived as Dr. Frankensteinwith her grandson, Danny, who was dressedas Frankenstein. Her grandson has been at-tending Medicine Horse for one year.

“Many therapists said he would not beable to do certain things, and he is able to dothose things because of Medicine Horse,”Burl said.

Postiglione-Dupell serves 24 people whorange in age from 3 to adults and would liketo help more individuals. But issues such asweather cause scheduling conflicts as well asan interruption in services, which results inregression for some individuals.

“We want to extend our hours and take onmore individuals who need our services, andwe don’t want folks who are medically com-promised to have interrupted services,”Postiglione-Dupell said. “There are a lot ofpeople who need services.”

PLATTSBURGH — Voters are faced withsome big decisions this election season, andthe Plattsburgh League of Women Voterswants to make sure every vote cast is well-informed.

The 92-year-old non-partisan, not-for-profit organization has chapters throughoutthe U.S. and has had a local chapter for about40 years.

The organization came into being follow-ing the women’s suffrage movement.

“At that point it was felt that educationand citizenship was needed,” said CatherineFelty, the local league’s second presidentand one if its founding members. “A logicalpart of being a citizen is understanding theissues that affect the country and your local-ity.”

To get the information out, the league dis-tributes pamphlets called voter guides,which have information regarding candi-date’s stances on important issues like edu-cation, the economy and the environment .

Their website also provides informationand links to other- non-partisan fact-checkwebsites like Factcheck.org.

Utilizing technology has been paramountfor the league to inform voters.

“Everything has followed in a very natu-ral way by people who felt then, as we donow, that we want to be educated, and wealso want to have an organized voice whenit comes to responding to issues,” Felty said.

At its most basic, the League of WomenVoters is a one-stop organization for voterinformation, but it is not just for women—the organization accepts men into its ranks,too.

To help further its cause of informing vot-ers, the league has study groups who exam-ine various issues and take a stance on thoseissues.

“We do not take position for or againstcandidates or issues unless we have firststudied and voted and come to a consensus,”said Sally Sears-Mack, president of theLeague of Women Voters of Plattsburgh.

“And we don’t just take up any item. Theitem has to be of overall importance to peo-ple everywhere in the country, and certainlyin the state.”

Some of those include environmental is-sues, voter ’s rights and transparency in gov-ernment.

Betsy Metz, the Plattsburgh League’s sec-retary, is head of the environmental studycommittee.

The committee is responsible for a ThinkGreen Brochure, which is a free resourcepeople can use to learn about where they cantake things, like televisions and old car bat-teries, to be recycled.

“While there are multiple environmentalissues, we generally support a balanced, safeenvironment,” Metz said. “Hydro fracturingis a major study right now, it is a significantissue in southern New York.”

The league works with scientists and ex-perts to study issues, whether they are envi-ronmental, economic or social.

Metz emphasized the importance inchanging what she sees as a major hurdle ingetting people active in their government.

“It’s very difficult for voters to get correctinformation,” Metz said. “People are notparticipating as much because they’d rathernot vote than have an uniformed vote.”

Recently, proposed voter I.D. laws havebeen a major concern of league members.

“It is an intentional way to make it moredifficult for some to vote,” Sears-Mack said.“Voter fraud is almost non-existent, andthere seems to be a lot of evidence to supportthat it is an effort to suppress the vote.”

To help other league members explore is-sues, the league sponsors monthly speakers,which oftentimes evolve into full-blown dis-cussion sessions.

“We don’t invite speakers just becausethey agree with us,” Sears-Mack said.

The league’s most recent guest speakerwas J.W. Wiley, director of the Center for Di-versity, Pluralism and Inclusion at Platts-burgh State. He spoke at the group’s “A Lookat American Elections, Voter Suppressionand Bullying” forum in September.

“The reason people bully is because of thedifferences that exist in the power dynamic,”

Wiley said. “I can’t see what’s happening inthis country, with this voter ’s rights issue, inany way other than bullying.”

Wiley referenced a statement Pennsylva-nia House Majority Leader Mike Turzaimade at a GOP state committee meeting inJune: “Voter ID, which is going to allow Gov-ernor Romney to win the state of Pennsylva-nia, done,” Turzai said.

Wiley told the forum about how hewatched Turzai make this statement onMSNBC with his daughter, Autumn.

“We saw this guy, and she said: ‘Dad, canhe do that?’ How do I explain to my 12-year-old daughter that he can, and he can getaway with it?” Wiley said.

The point Wiley made over the course ofthe forum was that actions like these are hap-pening in front of all of us, and that the only

way to combat them is through education,understanding and tolerance.

He also applauded the Plattsburgh Leagueof Women Voters for becoming part of thatdiscussion, and added that he’d like to seemore young people get involved with theleague.

“There is a very dynamic group of voiceshere who are passionate about social jus-tice,” Wiley said. “Anybody who hits the re-gional and national stage came from a localcommunity. What they’re doing here is go-ing to have an impact on a national level.”

The league is holding an event to allowvoters to meet the eight State Supreme Courtcandidates at 7 p.m. Oct. 29 at the AmericanLegion Post 20 in Plattsburgh.

KEESEVILLE — The room was hidden away, in the backof a barn in Peru.

A small portal granted access into the dark space, a cham-ber of stone and naked earth about five feet wide and 10 feetlong, where people seeking freedom were hidden.

The location is one of many along the North Star Under-ground Railroad Museum’s tour of underground railroadsites in Peru and Keeseville.

The tour was led by Don Papson, who stepped down aspresident of the museum so he could work on a book aboutthe secret life of Sydney Howard Gay, an active abolitionistduring the Civil War.

While driving past a farmhouse in Peru, Papson told thestory about how the house’s current occupants found an ironleg shackle while remodeling.

The shackle is now in the museum, and is purposely dis-played open.

“Yes, the museum is about slavery, but it’s really aboutfreedom,” Papson said.

The museum’s tour rolled through Keeseville and Peru asPapson recounted stories about local abolitionists and thechurches that were divided on the issue of slavery.

“The problem with the underground railroad is that it sug-gests to people that everything was underground, and itwasn’t,” Papson said. “Underground means secret, but thegood thing about that is it keeps interest alive.”

But the tour didn’t just focus on keeping the past alive.Papson told a story about a group of abolitionists who

stormed a jail in Syracuse to free an imprisoned fugitiveslave.

Before taking the man to Canada, where he could be free,they brought him to a blacksmith, where two sisters brokehis leg irons with a hammer and chisel.

“I tell that story to empower children, because there’sslavery today” Papson said. “There’s more than 20 millionpeople enslaved in the world today.”

The museum’s last tour of the season was Oct. 6, but itsnew president, Jacqueline Madison, who took over Oct. 1, isalready thinking about the future.

Madison was intrigued by the story of the undergroundrailroad in the North Country and became involved with themuseum shortly after it opened.

“Now we think of putting our views out there and talkingabout what we believe in, and marching and resisting, but

that wasn’t the norm in that era of history.” Madison said.“This was a caliber of people who really stood up for whatthey believed in.”

Madison said she has some ideas for new educational pro-grams, including more information on the website, an appand starting up a traveling museum, which will reach out toteenagers.

“It relates to them that your voice can be heard, that youcan make a difference,” Madison. “They are the future, andI think if they can see that people in the past made a differ-ence, then we can also.”

The traveling museum would be designed to be easilymoved to different locations, like schools and libraries. In

essence, people won’t have to go to the museum, the muse-um will come to them.

Madison also said there are many more stories waiting tobe told in the region, and that she would like to uncover allof them.

“A lot of times we have this negative twist on history, andthis is really a positive twist on history, and it’s nice to havethat come out,” Madison said. “That’s what history is allabout, to improve what has been done and make changeswhere appropriate.”

The North Star Underground Railroad Museum is open byappointment throughout the winter, and will return to itsregular hours of operation on Memorial Day.
