Rodeo Hall of Fame
Idaho is home to some of the greatest Rodeo Cowboys in the world, and the folks at the Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame are looking to create a permanent place to honor our Idaho cowboys - past, present and future. To that end, a fundraising project was started earlier this year involving a herd of well dressed wooden long horn steers in Gooding. Local businesses have paid an entry fee of $150 and are competing in a contest for the best dressed steer. The winner will receive their entry fee back. This is a great opportunity to have fun decorating the steers, to advertise a business, and to raise funds for the Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame. The steers will be displayed throughout Gooding from June during the Western Heritage Days through August during the Gooding County Fair and Pro Rodeo. On August 16th, the Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame will hold their annual Induction Dinner and Live Auction at the Gooding Fairground Commercial Building. This event will raise funds for a new hall, as well as help fund youth awards that are currently in the process of being implemented.

In February of 2012, Jim McNall from the Idaho Counties Risk Management Program (ICRMP) presented a workshop at the Lincoln County Courthouse on harassment in the workplace. The Lincoln County Commissioners had asked for this workshop in an effort to prevent a lawsuit. At issue was an interpersonal conflict that was getting out of hand between an elected official and an employee. The main piece of advice Jim McNall had for this situation was that, if you don’t like someone, at least pretend you do. And... DON’T gossip about it. His point was that gossip is a form of harassment that can led to legal repercussions. Five months later on July 18, 2012, a civil suit was filed by Rayburn McClure against the County Clerk, Suzanne McConnell, and the Lincoln County Commissioners. Mr. McClure is the P&Z Administrator for Lincoln County, but the suit was mainly in regards to his janitorial service to the county.
Speed Limit Increase North of Shoshone Following reconstruction of a six-mile section of Idaho 75 in 2013, the average speed of traffic increased as a result of an improved roadway and safer conditions. A follow-up engineering study of traffic activities on the new roadway has prompted an increase to the highway’s speed limit

...Speed Limit continued to 65 mph north of Huyser Drive to the end of last year’s construction project (milepost 74.9 to 80.95). Immediately north of Shoshone, the speed limit will be 45 mph for about one-half mile followed by a 55 mph speed zone for an additional half-mile. “Generally, we see a shift in speed limits to slow traffic for reasons of safety or due to increasing roadway access,” said Bruce Christensen, ITD district traffic engineer. “This is one of those cases where safe operation by drivers and the speed of traffic has led to a minor increase of the speed limit.” The average daily traffic for the section of road varies from 3,000 vehicles to 5,900 with large increases during the summer months. The location for the speed-zone increase was due largely to the number of vehicles that access Huyser Drive. Drivers are reminded that the current speed limit remains in effect until the new signs are installed.

Military Appreciation Month The Gooding County Historical Museum is helping to celebrate National Military Appreciation Month this month of May, and actually all year with a fantastic military exhibit. Come and visit the Museum and see all the local Gooding County military artifacts including a jeep in the center of the exhibit area. The museun is open every Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 273 Euskadi Lane (Hwy 26/46) in Gooding Idaho. For more information call 934-5318. ~~~~~ National Military Appreciation Month (NMAM), as designated by Congress, provides a period encompassing both the history and recognition of our armed services with an in-depth look at the diversity of its individuals and achievements. It allows Americans to educate each generation on the historical impact of our military through the participation of the community with those who serve encouraging patriotism and love for America. This month gives the nation a time and place on which to focus and draw attention to our many expressions of appreciation and recognition of our armed services via numerous venues and also to recall and learn about our vast American military history. National Military Appreciation Month, May 2014, includes Loyalty Day (1st), VE Day (8th), Military Spouse Appreciation Day (9th), Armed Forces Day (17th), and Memorial Day (26th). This very important month honors, remembers, recognizes and appreciates all military personnel; those men and women who have served throughout our history and all who now serve in uniform and their families as well as those Americans who have given their lives in defense of our freedoms we all enjoy today. It recognizes those on active duty in all branches of the services, the National Guard and Reserves plus retirees, veterans, and all of their families - well over 90 million Americans and more than 230 years of our nation’s history. Let us celebrate them just as we celebrate the other important entities that make up this wonderful country of ours.

...L.C. Lawsuit continued
The suit alleged that Mrs. McConnell did, on numerous occasions and with malicious intent, say things which were untrue in order to defame the reputation of Mr. McClure. According to sworn depositions from other elected officials, the derogatory statements seemed to have begun in 2009 when McConnell Construction failed to win a bid for janitorial service to the county. The incident which ultimately led to the filing of the lawsuit was a visit by Mrs. McConnell (as the county clerk) to a local business where (according another sworn deposition) she accused Mr. McClure of using a county charge account to purchase a $12 tape measure for personal use. This event took place in February of 2012. This case (CV-12-157) had been scheduled for a jury trial, but in November of 2013 the defendants’ asked for summary judgment (a ruling by the judge without a trial). As a result of that motion and the testemony that had been given, it became evident that the case would not be resolved in favor of the defendants, and a settlement was reached between the county and Mr. McClure. On January 16, 2014, Judge Elgee dismissed the case “with prejudice” in favor of the plaintiff, Mr. McClure. 2039 Main Street ~ Gooding

from the Editor
Politics can, at times, be difficult and contentious as people of opposite view points fight for their ideas. Sometimes people say things they shouldn’t, and far too often the political debate turns into personal animosity. When this happens, common sense and civility are thrown out the window. A politician might say, “I don’t care if he/she is right, I’m not going to do it,” no matter what “it” is. This sort of attitude leads to bad decisions, “I hate so n’ so, and that makes all his ideas bad.” This can also lead to corruption where it is no longer “I hate so n’ so,” but becomes “I want everyone else to hate so n’ so too!” The truth is twisted into half truths, and half truths become outright lies. While we might be tempted to point a finger at our national government as an example of this, our local elected officials are far more likely to have non-political interpersonal conflicts. In fact, it is inevitable that people who don’t like each other will be brought together to serve on school boards, at city hall, and in our county offices. I have seen and heard many things in the last twenty years of covering local politics. Some of it was silly, some of it was spiteful, and some of it was clearly a violation of the law or ethical standards. That said, the discussion at a Lincoln County Commissioner meeting in early 2012 was something I had not seen before. The county clerk uttered a long list of complaints against a county employee while the rest of the elected officials sat uncomfortably. According to one of the other elected officials it was, “the most embarrassing meeting that I’ve ever been to in 28 years.” By all rights, the Commissioners should have asked me to leave - this information was not for public discloser - but they didn’t. Rather than writing about this internal conflict, I wrote about what the Commissioners did to try and solve the problem - namely, the ICRMP workshop on harassment in the workplace. Unfortunately, the problem was not solved and a lawsuit was filed. -- Some years ago, I spoke with Judge Elgee regarding a similar case of political debate turned into personal hatred. He said it was a case that should have never come to the court system. Conflicts like this can, if the parties are willing to do so, be solved by a very simple thing... a heartfelt, honest apology.

Letter to the Editor Will Common Core make our nation more internationally competitive and help our children be college/career ready? With five states still not signed on to Common Core and the State of Indiana having repealed it, we can see that not all are convinced with the idea of nationalizing our education system. In this article you will see my conclusions and see websites where you can gain more information to make an informed about this important issue. ––– Why did Governors and State Superintendents sign on to Common Core? Answer: States were encouraged to sign up for Common Core in order to be released from No Child Left Behind and to have the opportunity to receive grant money since the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act had $4.35 billion earmarked for the Department of Education. In January 2010, when Idaho submitted the Race to the Top Application (a competitive grant program for all states) it committed to adopting Common Core standards, assessments, and data collection on students. Do we need a Nationalized Education Reform for schools to help students be College/Career Ready and for global competitiveness? Answer: No. In the Journal of Scholarship and Practice, it states that, “America already produces more researchers, scientists, qualified engineers than our economy can employ...we are the most economically competitive nation on the globe...Economic strength of the G20 countries relies more on policy, than education achievement...The US already has one of the highest percentages of people with high school diplomas and college degrees compared to any other country” (Common Core State Standards: An Example of Data-less Decision Making – 4 May 2014) Has the process of common core development involved teachers/ educators? Answer: It depends on your definition of involvement. In a report by the Common Core Standards Initiative titled “Reaching Higher” it mentions that work groups who drafted the common core were “comprised of representatives from higher education, K-12 education, teachers, and researchers. The work groups consulted educators, administrators, community and parent organizations, higher education representatives, the business community, researchers, civil rights groups and states for feedback.” (www.corestandards.org) According to Diane Ravitch (an historian of education, Research Professor of Education at New York University, and blogger), the 24 people who drafted the common core were mostly made up of people from the testing community and there was an overall lack of comprehensive teaching experience. (dianeravitch.net) The common core work groups were said to have consulted several groups of people. There were apparently 10,000 responses to the common core ELA and Math standards in March of 2010 with an online public forum. Yet, are 10,000 comments enough of a representative sample of public opinion for a country of about 313 million people? It appears that the level of involvement from Idaho teachers has been to help develop the Smarter Balanced Assessment (SBAC) test for Idaho and not to aid in the development of common core stan-

dards. (www.sde.idaho.gov/site/ICS) The SDE website timeline lists that in June 7-17 of 2010 and September 2010-October 2010, the SDE hosted meetings in about 10 different towns in Idaho to gather input from educators and parents. I am not sure what level of participation resulted with these meetings, especially with summer meetings. Keep in mind also that this was a time when there was limited information about common core. Is Common Core rigorous and does it promote college/career readiness? Answer: No (where’s the evidence?) The two lead writers of the English Language Common Core standards (David Coleman and Susan Pimental) are reported to NOT have experience teaching English either in K-12 or at the college level (www.uaedreform.org). In fact, David Coleman jokes about this himself in a video you can watch online. (truthinamericaneducation. com) Among the lead writers of common core math (Jason Zimba, Phil Daro, and William McCallum) only McCallum had ever developed math standards. Dr. James Milgram (Emeritus Professor at Stanford University, a developer of successful math standards, and the only mathematician on the Validation Committee) mentioned in a teleconference that Common Core math will leave 8th graders 3 years behind in math. Dr. Stotsky, who was the only nationally recognized expert on English Language Arts standards on the validation committee, had several weaknesses to point out with common core English standards. There is a higher emphasis on writing over reading. There will be less writing based on opinion. There will be less critical thinking as literature will be more factually based and less up to interpretation and analysis. Other Validation Members who did not sign off were Dylan William, Alfinio Flores, and Samuel DeWitt. These validation members were chosen as the “leading figures in the education standards community” to evaluate the standards. (www.corestandards.org). So with five experts not in favor of common core we are left to wonder why. Fortunately, Dr. Stotsky and Dr. Milgram have been very vocal about their reasons. Dr. Stotsky has written several essays, done several presentations, and consulted with many to educate people on common core weaknesses. On www.uaedreform.org and across the web there are many of her publications. She has been interviewed on Fox News, Breitbart, and she’s on a video explaining Common Core from opponents’ viewpoint called “Building the Machine”. I have only touched the surface of the problems with common core. I have not approached the issue of how the 10th Amendment is being violated with Common Core. I have not approached the issue of data collection on students. My conclusion is that this is a top-down educational policy with federal overreach that was never asked for by the majority of American parents and educators. Idaho parents and educators have been underrepresented. If you feel the same after researching this issue more, there is something you can do about it. On May 20th, you will have a choice to vote for candidates that oppose this legislation, and want local control to return to parents and educators. Idahoansforlocaleducation.com and Idahoansagainstcommoncore.com have information about these candidates. Please make an informed decision on May 20th. Thank you!

Letters to the Editor The following Letter to the Editor was accidently cut off last week. Here is the complete letter.
Dear Editor: TEAMWORK is critical in any working environment. When others succeed, we all succeed. If you need assistance, your team provides guidance, information, and advice. I don’t understand a recent letter criticizing the TEAM approach. Members of the Lincoln County TEAM taught Ann how to send tax information electronically at the request of taxpayers, assisted with formatting documents (including how to format cells in Excel), encouraged research of Idaho statutes and attendance at meetings to learn treasurer responsibilities. People across the state offered assistance to Ann over the past two years. Ann’s recently shared opinion of “TEAMWORK” clarifies so much about our experiences. If she doesn’t support “TEAMWORK”, why does her campaign promote a team of candidates? Are some “teams” acceptable while others rejected? Ann expresses concern about elected officials and impartiality. Is this a criticism of the citizens who chose to elect officials who happen to be married? The citizens have a right to vote their choice of elected officials. Does Ann not support that right? Instead, Ann supports HIRING elected county commissioner’s relatives—which IS against Idaho Statute and Lincoln County policy. Necessary in order to assure voters of “independence” and “impartiality” and to avoid “conflicts of interest” and “undue influence”. That never should have occurred and contradicts claims of her “experience”, “qualifications”, “efficiency”, and “impartiality”. Elected officials are entrusted “with county resources, making policy, and serving in the Public’s best interest”. Voters should elect a Treasurer who earned that trust; supports true TEAMWORK (not just with friends

sharing agendas); who is “ready to serve” with current skills, qualifications, and experience; studies laws and current technology to efficiently serve our citizens; and enforces statute and policy for all (not just for friends sharing agendas). I encourage voters to elect Mary Davidson for Treasurer. Diana Rowe, Gooding ID ~~~~~ Dear Editor: I am writing to endorse Mary Davidson for office of Treasurer for Lincoln County. I have known Mary for twenty four years, and during that time I worked directly with her for ten of those years (1996 – 2006). Mary Davidson is an amazing woman. She is a leader. She has extensive experience with running a business and managing people. For example, when Mary and I worked together she was the Customer Service Manager for Idaho. She was responsible for dispatching loads from our mills to the customer and to the local coop branches. She coordinated with the sales representatives, the mills, the Commodity Merchandisers, the customers and the trucking companies. In addition, she managed/ supervised the customer service center which consisted of a call center that received inbound customer calls, processed customer orders, and followed those orders through the billing process so that the customer was invoiced in a timely manner. She coordinated with the Credit Department, sales representatives and the customer to insure we were paid in a timely manner. Basically, she supervised accounts payable, invoicing and delivery for the Idaho operations for Land O’Lakes Purina Feed. She understands what it takes to be efficient and the necessity required in today’s world to maximize resources and avoid wasteful spending. In order to take care of our customers, on many occasions, she was required to split loads in order to take care of the customer’s needs. When necessary she would source/originate ingredients so that our mills and the customer did not run out of feed. Mary was always mindful of the cost associated with providing this level of customer service, but understood the value of taking care of the customer. In essence, she was responsible for making sure our products were delivered efficiently, the suppliers/vendors invoicing reconciled with our records, and the customer was invoiced and the suppliers were paid. She wore many hats & truly did an amazing job. In conclusion, I will tell you Mary Davidson is a woman of integrity. Our desks were side by side, and in all

of her dealings, I never witnessed anything other than hard work, integrity and honesty. Characteristics I know will benefit Lincoln County. She worked very hard to meet or exceed the expectations of our customers while representing Land O’Lakes Purina Feed with honesty and integrity. Again, traits that I feel are important to Lincoln County. Mary, I am honored to have been able to work so closely with you, and I hope the good people of Lincoln County will give you their vote, because I know Lincoln County will benefit from having your experience and integrity in the Treasurer’s office. Sincerely, Mark T. Walton, Financial Advisor ~~~~~ Dear Editor: After reading several letters to the editor by or about the candidates for Lincoln County Treasurer, my decision is clear. Ann Youts, the appointed Treasurer has apparently never run a campaign. Her signs and billboards have pictures of herself and another candidate. This appears to be a tight connection between these two persons running for office in Lincoln County. They are clearly running together and should they both win, wouldn’t that be in direct conflict with her article where she states that too tight of a connection between persons running for or holding office in the county should be avoided? Ann is clearly opposed to teamwork and says that teams need a coach. Perhaps a sports team out to compete would need a coach. This is not the type of team mentioned in Mary Davidson’s letter. Mary clearly understands the value of individuals with various talents, abilities and experience working together to accomplish goals and overcome challenges in a constant and consistent quest to meet the needs of the citizens of Lincoln County. The position of Treasurer is one of trust and is best filled by a person of true integrity and character. Diane Rowe describes Mary as someone with these qualities. Unfortunately I don’t have the same opinion about Ann, who betrays her own actions with the comments in her letter to the editor. As a manager and corporate trainer, over and over throughout my career, I have found that success is achieved by teams of individuals with integrity working together for the good of all those that they serve. Working in any office environment requires sharing, cooperating and helping others on a daily basis. Someone who is opposed to these concepts of teamwork would actu-

ally create a conflict of interest since working together is imperative to the success of any organization. It will be in your best interest as a citizen of Lincoln County to Elect Mary Davidson to the office of Lincoln County Treasurer and Re-elect Susan McConnell to the office of County Clerk. Sincerely, Pamela Lynn ~~~~~ Dear Editor: I would like to comment on the statement of Ann and myself campaigning together made in the Lincoln County Chronicle. Before this campaign began, Ann and I knew each other mostly only in church functions and were not really close friends. I appreciated Ann’s willingness to campaign with me, not because we are “so tight” but because we could see the economic advantage of campaigning together. Running a campaign can get expensive, especially for a non-incumbent, to get people to see who you are and name recognition so they will look at what you stand for and what you can bring to the office. It is easier for most people to just vote for the incumbent, unless they have some recognition of the opponent or other facts to go by. Also, Ann has been a great help in door to door campaigning. She has taken my flyers along with hers as she goes door to door and I do hers as well. I appreciate this because I work in Ketchum and do not have the advantage of being able to campaign in close proximity to my job as my opponent does. This kind of cooperation, with autonomy in stating our own views and positions, is just the kind of work ethics we need in our court house. Those who support Suzanne McConnell may want to check the Times News front page story from April 15th edition to see the truth about “integrity working together...sharing, cooperating and helping others”. This is why I’m running for County Clerk. Please vote based on the facts. Brenda Farnworth for County Clerk

After WWI we saw the first group of people who were the first aviators. They were similar to hobos on trains, but they paid their way and had more control of their destined area of stop. The stare were their nightly backdrop and the sunshine was their life. These people were called Barnstormers. A barnstormer was a person who had an airplane and would fly from one place to another. The name Barnstormer probably had multiple origins. A barn was a place of activity by lots of folks (nine out of ten people use to have work related to the farm). The Barnstormer would fly low over a barn getting everyone’s attention. Then the pilot (mostly surviving pilots from WWI) would land in a farmer’s field. Rides were sold to the groups of folks word of mouth or the sighting of a plane would bring others out. A barn would offer a nice soft place to sleep as well as a large building that could cover a plane (22’ long by 16’ wide) during a storm. A usual layover was one to two days unless a barnstormer was attending a county fair. Family cooking served as the best cafes one could get. The barnstormer flew from spring through harvest in the fall, thus avoiding the worst of weather and thunder storms. The barnstormers were called flying circuses. Stuntmen were regular attractions to rural areas as well as city functions. Money was made by rides and people having their pictures taken by the airplanes. Many of the spotters (spokesmen) were soldiers hopping from one place to another. To advertise on the ground they were given free rides. The price of gasoline in 1920 was 18 cents per gallon. A few rides a day could supply more than ample money for fuel to get to the next county fair, or gathering of people. The average price for a ride was $5.00 in 1930 which was the equivalent of $199 of today’s prices. Barnstorming was popular up until 1941 when the outbreak of WWII sent the pilots and the soldiers into active service. Today the barnstormers are gone, and sorry to say, some of the legendary figures that made barnstorming are themselves falling by the wayside. These are the barns that made barnstorming a great life. Many barns were built before the 1920’s. Their use as family dwellings, livestock dwellings, crop and/or equipment protection, all decreased as family farms were disbanded. Barns have been less and less a necessary center piece of farming. There is a barn in Meridian, Idaho, I have watched for years. It is at a present state of collapse. A small leak such as a loose shingle has started a roller coaster effect. The upper beams have gotten wet and have begun to rot. Their supportive strength has given way to out of bounds stretching. Soon the sides will unable to keep the middle in bounds and the barn will fall into itself, or over. Too bad we couldn’t display barns again to create a new group of barnstormers This is my “Cup of Tee” on the outside.
