City seeks budget cuts, employee raises BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The Corinth Board of Aldermen spent a day last week combing through the budget, seeking cuts to bring the numbers within range of no tax increase. The proposed budget as it stands would leave the city with a $479,000 loss in fiscal 2013, said City Clerk Vickie Roach. While attempting to trim that sum from the budget, the board is also trying to find a way to put in a pay raise for employees. The proposed department bud-
get numbers in hand Thursday morning did not include the pay hike. “This will be the first time we give our employees a raise,” said Mayor Tommy Irwin. “When we came in here, the budget was already fixed in 2010 when we took office.” He told the board he thinks it’s possible without a tax increase. While he hopes employees get a pay boost, there needs to be some trimming of overtime labor, he said. After the board spent a cou-
ple of hours poring over the budget line by line and making little progress in finding cuts, the clerk recommended that department heads be directed to go back and make reductions in their budgets. For outside agencies that receive funding from the city, the preliminary numbers put their allocations “consistent with what we did last year,” said Roach. In the 2012 budget, the city took 1.5 mills, or about $127,500, from the Corinth Library millage, and that mill-
age is being fully restored to the library in the new budget. While that helped avoid a tax increase last year, it is one of several challenges in crafting the budget for FY 2013, which begins Oct. 1. Although sales tax proceeds have recovered some this year, Roach said she is reluctant to give that projection more than a small bump for FY 2013. The current tax rate, including the city school tax, is 95 mills. The public hearing on the budget is scheduled for 5 p.m.
on Sept. 4 with the board considering adoption on Sept. 11. The board had considerable discussion of whether a municipal court employee should continue to be on call on the weekend to accept fine payments from individuals picked up by warrant for delinquent fines. Municipal Court Clerk Dianne Johnson said the practice began this year but the projected overtime labor expense is one that she would like to see cut. In the past, those arrested had to wait until Monday morning to pay up and get released.
Tour asks: Was Pusser a hero?
Officials keep eye on Isaac
BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Buford Pusser was an American hero. The legendary McNairy County sheriff who inspired the “Walking Tall” films single handedly cleaned up the Mississippi and Tennessee state line and vanquished the den of vipers known as the State Line Mob, a foul gang of murderers, thieves and bootleggers whose depredations knew no limit. He walked tall – even when his faithful wife Pauline was murdered in a cowardly ambush. He was a legend and a folk hero even before an early death on the highway spelled his final chapel. Pusser was a man of steely-eyed bravery and unimpeachable character. Or was he? That is the main question being asked by a group planning a Labor Day weekend tour of the sites associated with the legendary sheriff. The main organizer of the tour is Northwest Arkansas resident Mike Elam, a 61-year-old former law enforcement officer who became interested in Pusser like many others, through the “Walking Tall” movies. The movies made Elam want to learn more about the Tennessee sheriff, and Elam turned his investigator’s inPlease see PUSSER | 2A

has increased to three more schools. Church members added Rienzi, Glen and Biggersville schools to their supply list. “A lot of kids go home on the weekend and don’t have food,” said R.M. Brooks, founder of the program. “We supply foods they can eat without much supervision since most of them are by themselves.”
Is Isaac headed this way? The path of the tropical storm has provided a waitand-see scenario for the Crossroads area. The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency continues to track the storm as it heads for the Gulf of Mexico. Forecast models have changed with each update agreeing Isaac will reach the Gulf of Mexico by early this week. Beyond that, models go basically in several directions. “In terms of the timing of the arrival of Isaac, right now we expect it to continue on its general northwest path for the next couple of days,” said national hurricane meteorologist David Zelinsky. “Tropical storm conditions will reach South Florida sometime today.” Locally, officials are keeping an eye on the storm. “It's really too early to tell,” said Alcorn County Emergency Management Director Ricky Gibens after talking with the National Weather Service in Memphis, Tenn., after 3 p.m. Saturday. “They should have a better model in the next 24 hours.” Gibens said the area could see “rain, storms or noth-

Weekend kids’ food program grows BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
The name has changed but the giving continues to grow. Pinecrest Baptist’s Backpack Ministry has a new title as the church begins a fresh year of suppling bags of food to needy children. Over 20 workers arrived ready to fill bags for the Pinecrest Weekend Snack Packs for Kids on Friday, taking around 30 minutes getting over
200 bags ready. The number of bags has risen from 60 bags last year to 211 at the start of this year. “This is a program where you start with one number and it always goes up,” said church pastor Bro. Jeff Haney. “It has grown so much, we need outside help more than ever.” What started as filling backpacks full of weekend food for children at Alcorn Central, Corinth and Kossuth schools
English singer/songwriter donates song ‘Shiloh’ to national park BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
An English singer and songwriter has donated a song to Shiloh National Military Park. Manchester native Sean Martin donated his new song “Shiloh” to the park of the same name earlier this summer. The 43-year-old Martin recorded the song earlier this year at the famed Sun Records in Memphis, Tenn., where legendary rock ’n roll, rockabilly
and blues artists including Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis first captured their signature sounds. “I knew we had to do it here,” Martin said of recording his material in the Mid-South home of some of his musical heroes. “This has got to be the way we’ve going to do it.” The song is spare and elegant, with Martin’s rich baritone voice over a marching drumbeat, twangy twin Fender guitars and a gospel piano. In
the chorus he sings, “Shiloh, Shiloh. Will you help me find my brothers in Shiloh?” accompanied by a haunting, reverb-laden harmonica fill. “Shiloh” was recorded “live” in the studio with all instruments playing at the same time, the traditional way music was recorded before technology allowed artists to spend huge amounts of time recording one track at a time. Martin said he and the band played through the song about

10 times to get it “exactly perfect.” “I’ve never written anything like ‘Shiloh’ before — and probably won’t again,” said Martin, who divides his time between England and small Tippah County community of Faulkner, where his wife lives. “It’s such a specific song.” Born in 1968, Martin said music would be bouncing off the walls in the home where he grew up, with the popular hits of the day coming from
his sisters’ rooms, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash playing in his brothers’ rooms and a little more Johnny Cash thrown into the mix if his father was home. It was like a contest to see who could play the loudest music in their rooms, he remembered. Growing up in a musical household it was only natural that Martin would turn to music at an early age. “I’ve been doing it for it Please see SHILOH | 2A

stincts toward the task. He started digging into what had been published about Pusser during his lifetime in magazines and newsprint. He made pilgrimages to Corinth and McNairy County to talk to people who knew Pusser and people involved in the media creation known as the State Line Mob. And as Elam learned more and more, his outright admiration for the “Walking Tall” sheriff turned into something else entirely. The purpose of Elam’s upcoming tour is to share what he has learned over almost a decade of research, to contrast what he has discovered against the longstanding legend of Buford Pusser. He regularly shares and discusses these findings on the Yahoo online discussion group called “crimemyths.” It was through this group that the tour was organized. “We’re not trying to convince anyone one way or another,” said Elam. “We’re taking the movie version and comparing it to the information we now have.” Elam has planned a tour that will be conducted on Saturday and next Sunday. On both days, Elam and the group will begin at 9 a.m. at the Econo Lodge in Corinth. The tour group will travel first north across the state line to the site near New Hope Church where, as the established version goes, Buford and Pauline were ambushed by unknown gunmen early on the morning of Aug. 12, 1967. The ambush left Pauline dead and Buford seriously wounded. It is a pivotal moment in the Pusser legend, the inspiration for the title of the late W.R. Morris’ book “The Twelfth of August.” But based on his research and the testimony of people close to the events, Elam has arrived at a very different conclusion regarding what happened that morning and who was really responsible for the death of Pauline Pusser. At the ambush site, the group will compare information from Tennessee Bureau of Investigation files with Pusser’s accounts of what happened. They will also try to recreate some the events of that morning to demonstrate why Elam believes something much more sinister – and potentially fatal to the Pusser myth – happened at this site 45 years ago. From there, the tour will go to the ruins of the old Shamrock restaurant
and motel, the site of another event in the accepted Pusser story that Elam believes to be false – the shooting of its proprietor, Louise Hathcock. According to the official story, Pusser shot and killed Hathcock in self defense in Hathcock’s private room at the Shamrock on the first day of February, 1966. But Elam’s research hints at a very different scenario. On the tour, participants will learn what Elam believes really happened, specifically based on the record of Hathcock’s autopsy report. Here another canonical event in the Pusser narrative will go under scrutiny. From the Shamrock, the tour will travel to other dives and sites from the Pusser/State Line heyday, including the White Iris, the former site of Hollis Jourdan’s bar, the sites where Willy B’s and the Old Hickory were located, the old Alan McCoy store site and the McNairy County Courthouse and jail. After lunch at a Selmer restaurant, the tour will move on to places associated with the last night of Pusser’s life – the McNairy County Fairgrounds where Pusser was last seen alive before his fatal accident. Next is the Pusser crash site near Adamsville, and the cemetery where the sheriff and his wife were laid to rest. While in Adamsville, the tour will visit the Pusser Home and Museum before trekking back to Corinth. Back in the Crossroads City, the tour will view the remaining buildings and locations of more places important to the story, including the Rustic Inn, the Bloody Bucket, the home of Jack and Louise Hathcock and site of the El Ray Motel, where infamous State Line gangster Towhead White met his end on April 2, 1969. Finally the tour will make its way back to the Corinth Econo to meet for a car caravan to trace the route Pusser took from Adamsville to the state line the morning of the ambush. After the car caravan, participants will return to the Econo for a viewing of the raw footage made by author W.R. Morris while he was working on his own movie version of “The Twelfth of August.” The production was stopped by a court order by Pusser, who maintained that Morris did not have movie rights to his story. The footage was shot in various clubs in the area, including Junior and Shirley Smith’s Old Hickory Grill. “This will give every-
Pusser tour Saturday — no available seats For more information or to reserve a Sunday seat; Send an email to Elam: mikeelam2010@ yahoo.com body an opportunity to see what these clubs looked like on the inside,” said Elam. Elam insists his goal is not to change anybody’s mind, but to present the information he has uncovered and to let people make up their own minds about what really happened all those years ago. In all of his discussions and debates on the “crimemyths” discussion group, there is one phrase Elam has returned to again and again. “The truth has no agenda,” is his mantra. The tour, he said, will be a chance for people like himself, who first knew the Pusser story through the movies, to come to grips with the information he has amassed over years of research. “We’re going to hold the story up against the reality. When the movie came out, we didn’t have all of this information. There were so many things we didn’t know that we know now,” Elam said. “I want people to make up their own mind by a comparison of the movie to the information we have, to let everybody see if the legend is true – or if it’s a moneymaking scheme by Hollywood.” In addition to the tour, Elam is currently working on a book about what he has discovered in his years of chasing down the Pusser legend. While the book is slow going, he plans to retire soon to devote more time to finishing his version of the story. He hopes the book – and next weekend’s tour – will be a step toward reawakening interest in a story that started in the counties of Alcorn and McNairy, but reached people around the globe. “Here you’ve got a story that one time held such national prominence – and now everybody has forgotten,” he said. “Let’s dust it off and see what there is to it.” The same itinerary will be followed both Saturday and Sunday. All of the seats for Saturday’s tour have been booked, but seats are still available for the tour on Sunday. For more information, or to reserve a seat, send an email to Elam at mikeelam2010@ yahoo.com.
Brothers keep alive case of father missing 4 years TALLASSEE, Tenn. — Two brothers whose father disappeared four years ago just outside Great Smoky Mountains National Park have all but given up finding him alive but they hope someday to get an answer to what happened to him. Michael Hearon, 51, was last seen Aug. 23, 2008. He had taken his pickup and trailer with a mower and an all-terrain vehicle to mow land he owned abutting the park in Blount County. A neighbor said he exchanged waves with Hearon as the man rode his 4-wheeler down the one-lane Bell Branch Road. No one acknowledges seeing him after
that. Days of searching the forests and hollows failed to turn up evidence of what happened to Hearon. Officials found his pickup truck with his keys, wallet and cell phone. His ATV sat in bushes nearby with the key still in the ignition. There were no footprints or vehicle tracks. His sons, Matt and Andy Hearon, told The Knoxville News Sentinel they think he came across something he wasn’t meant to see and fell victim to foul play. Marian O’Briant, spokeswoman for the Blount County Sheriff’s Office, said the Hearon case is open but there have been no new leads in about a year. The Hearon family was to hold its annual “Hike for Mike” Saturday to raise awareness of the case.

Bags are sent to the six schools each Friday during the school year. Close to $20,000 was spent on the ministry last year. This year the program has received a tax-empt 501(c)3 nonprofit status. Organizers can now gain financial support through grant writing. “We have converted to a full charity,” said Brooks. “Some corporations can’t give to a church but they can a charity,” added Brooks’ wife, Linda. “The program is still tied to the church, but now has its own charity exemption,” said Haney. Church members churn out the bags in assembly line fashion, filling each with a bottle of water and numerous other nutritious items. A Christian tract is also placed in each bag that contains service times on the other side. “The idea is to feed hungry kids, but we also hope to reach lost souls,” said R.M. The over 200 bags is expected to rise before the year is over. “By mid-September, we should have an increase,” said Linda. “The decline in the economy has caused

the snack packs to rise.” R.M. Brooks came up with the food idea after being saved. “I felt like the Lord was calling me to do something to help children,” he said. Brooks shared the idea with his wife and Haney. After praying about the mission, Brooks learned of a similar ministry in Arkansas. It began as a backpack mission before making the switch. “The schools asked us to use bags because it was easier for teachers to just put them in their backpack,” added R.M. Two other churches have now started the food program after seeing the success at Pinecrest. “I thought this was a wonderful idea and something that was very much needed,” said church
member Betty Elam. “We have never had a shortage of help since we started.” “We have heard so many wonderful stories from children who have received food,” said Linda Brooks. “It is a blessing to serve the Lord this way and our prayer is that someone will be saved as a result of caring for children.” Those who would like to donate to the program can do so by sending a check to Pinecrest Weekend Snack Pack Fund, 310 Pinecrest Road, Corinth, Ms. 38834. “Every cent given goes for food to be put in the bags,” added R.M.

He said the termination notice from security contractor WSIOak Ridge accuses him of showing “blatant disregard for the situation.” Garland said he was the first officer on the scene at the Highly Enriched Uranium Materials Facility. He said there was no need to use force with the protesters because they were peaceful and obeyed his commands.

Big Hill Pond State Park hosts 5K Walk/Run on Saturday BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian
The year 2012 marks Tennessee State Parks’ 75th Anniversary, and to help commemorate this important milestone, Big Hill Pond State Park will host a 5K Walk/Run event on Saturday, Sept. 1, beginning at 9 a.m. at the park’s picnic pavilion. This event is free and open to the public. “The Big Hill Pond 5K event is a great opportunity to get outside, get some exercise and celebrate Tennessee State Parks and all they have to offer,” said Park Manager Jim Harrison. “It will also give us a chance to thank the park’s many patrons and the entire local community for their support throughout the years. We encourage everyone to come out and join us.” Trophies will be given to the top three runners for the men’s, women’s and youth categories. Immediately following the run, park staff will serve commemorative 75th Anniversary cup-

It will also give us a chance to thank the park’s many patrons and the entire local community for their support throughout the years. We encourage everyone to come out and join us.” Jim Harrison Park manager cakes and homemade ice cream to all 5K participants and park visitors. There also will be a brief presentation about Tennessee State Parks’ unique history. Runners and walkers are asked to register for the event by August 28 through Big Hill Pond State Park’s office at 731645-7967 or 731-6458433. The Tennessee State Parks system was established through legislation in 1937, and those laws – with modifications and additions over the years –
remain the framework for park operations today. As in most states, Tennessee began in cooperation with federal programs that instigated individual parks. Later, Depression era recovery programs gave a boost to the idea and the possibility of creating parks. The Civilian Conservation Corps and Works Progress Administration worked on land conservation, but also delved further into the actual planning and construction of what would become the first of 54 Tennessee State
Parks. “Our vision statement highlights the inherent value of our natural environment, along with the value of the many physical reminders of Tennessee’s past,” added Deputy Commissioner Brock Hill. “Tennessee’s state parks have played such an important role in our history, and they play a critical role in our health and quality of life, which will benefit Tennesseans well into the future.” Big Hill Pond State Park lies in the southwestern part of McNairy County off Tennessee 57 and encompasses approximately 5,000 acres of magnificent timberland and hardwood bottom land. Cypress Creek and the Tuscumbia River border the property. Several oxbow lakes and sloughs add to the waterway. The flood plain adjacent to both the Tuscumbia River and Cypress Creek contains small oxbow lakes and swamp areas which are desirable habitat for waterfowl, wildlife and fishing. The park has a picnic area, campground, hiking trails and lake for fishing.

Shrinking from the unsubstantial debates A recent episode of the HBO program “The Newsroom” featured an expose of the lame presidential debate procedure we have accepted in America. The producer of the series, Aaron Sorkin, set up a confrontation between some Republican flunkies and the noble newsroom folks who wanted to change the debate format. Sorkin, a committed leftist, used the scenario to mock the GOP primary contenders, but the point is valid: The debates are largely a sham. First of all, the candidates Bill don’t have to answer the quesO’Reilly tions posed and often fly off The O’Reilly into rehearsed bloviations that Factor are as boring as they are offensive. The debate moderators rarely interrupt the bilge, leaving the politicians free to say whatever they want basically unchallenged. Any interruption would be considered “rude.” Yes, there is a follow-up question, but it is rarely: “Is it me, or did you just completely ignore the question I asked you?” Instead of saying “you have 60 seconds to answer the question,” the moderator should be honest and state: “You have a minute to dodge what was asked and talk about anything you want.” This year, the three presidential debates will be moderated by Jim Lehrer, Bob Schieffer and Candy Crowley. They are all veteran hard-news people who know their stuff. They are also polite establishment journalists who understand that they can ask whatever they want but will rarely get a direct answer. And they all seem fine with that. The third debate will be the most excruciating because it will be “town hall” style. That means some regular citizens will get to ask some questions and stand there while President Obama and Mitt Romney dodge them. The candidates prep for the debates by having a series of likely questions thrown at them by surrogates and memorizing scripted retorts. They pay consultants big money to advise them on the debates, but, really, fifth graders could do it. The president knows he’ll be hit with statistics that indicate he has badly mismanaged the economy. Romney knows he’ll be asked questions about being a rich guy who wants to decimate entitlements for working Americans so that Donald Trump can buy another golf course. These guys know what’s coming. Should one of the moderators actually surprise them with a query that is not expected, they’ll fall back on how they love America and reality TV or something. The face-to-face confrontations are also largely bogus, although here there is at least some drama. Historically, only two presidential contenders have benefited from debating: John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan. Kennedy looked vibrant standing across from Richard Nixon, who appeared to be auditioning for a role in “Night of the Living Dead.” Reagan looked powerful next to Jimmy Carter and openly mocked him for being weak and incompetent, which he was. Once voters got a look at Reagan and his confident pro-American demeanor, it was back to the peanut farm for Jimmy. By the way, Carter won the presidency largely because of a debate, but it was nothing he did. Incredibly, President Gerald Ford told the world that Poland was a free country, which sent the Soviet leadership into spasms of laughter. Ford did that because he was so over-rehearsed that he completely lost his thought process. So don’t expect much substance from the debates this October; it will not be there. It is conceivable that Obama and Romney could go after each other personally, which would at least be entertaining. I’m not expecting that, but, hey, if one guy is down in the polls big-time, he’ll have to go for the jugular. If that were to happen, expect the moderators to break tradition and interrupt. Enough is enough; honest emotion simply will not be tolerated.

Noel Polk’s letters showed sharp intellect STARKVILLE — The death of Noel Polk — professor, literary scholar, writer, world traveler and arguably the world’s preeminent scholar on the writings of fellow Mississippian and Nobel Prize winner William Faulkner — should be remembered as the passing of one of this state’s most brilliant and beautiful minds. For pure intellectual horsepower, Polk had few equals not just in the literary world but in the world at large. But unlike many who are blessed with that kind of intellect, Polk did not choose to live a cloistered life surrounded by his books and his ideas. I have been privileged to know several Mississippi men and women of letters — writers like Willie Morris, John Grisham, Barry Hannah and others. I had fun chasing the Marcus Dupree story with Willie, have shared a love of Mississippi State University and politics with Grisham, and shut down a few Oxford watering holes with Hannah while talking about his Scott County relatives.
All of them were extremely kind to my daughter, Kate, when she was growing up. Sid Salter While a stuColumnist dent at Ole Miss, Kate was fortunate to come to know Hannah as one of her English professors. She came into Noel Polk’s orbit at Mississippi State while earning her master’s degree in English at State, where she now teaches English Composition. “Dr. Polk was at all times a teacher, whether in the classroom or in the aisle of a grocery store,” Kate told me this week after Polk lost his battle with cancer. “He was very opinionated, but always had respect for the opinions of others. He was loved and respected by his students and his colleagues in the MSU English Department.” After a long and distinguished 27-year career at the University of Southern Mississippi, Polk joined the faculty at MSU in 2004 as a professor of English and
editor of The Mississippi Quarterly. Unlike Morris, Grisham or Hannah, some of Noel Polk’s best and most passionate writings were not published in books or popular magazines. And despite Polk’s status as a renowned scholar of the works of Faulkner, Eudora Welty, or Robert Penn Warren, his writings weren’t reserved solely for books of literary criticism or for the pages of the literary journals he edited. Noel Polk, literary scholar, was also an inveterate writer of letters to the editors of newspapers. Polk offered letters sharing his opinions on the issues of the day in countless Mississippi newspapers, but most often in The Clarion-Ledger or The Starkville Daily News. Like the rest of his work, Polk’s letters were incisive, thoughtful, and pointed. On most issues, Polk was an unabashed liberal and he enjoyed thrashing his conservative targets in print. In the process, Polk supported public education, tolerance, diversity, public health care, religious freedom, aca-
demic freedom, and respect and equal rights for women. He opposed mixing politics and religion, former USM president Shelby Thames in his battles with the faculty there, and the use of cell phones on airplanes. To say that I liked and admired Noel Polk would be an understatement. We disagreed on many matters of politics, but I admired his willingness to get in the public arena, state his beliefs forcefully, and then await the storms that were certain to come. Gentle yet abrasive, brilliant yet accessible, and always analytical, Noel Polk is the kind of professor that students remember and appreciate more and more with the passing of the years. I will greatly miss his enlightened, passionate, and reasoned rants on the editorial pages as much as the literary world will miss his respected and unparalleled criticisms.

Romney-Ryan turn the tables on Obama BY MICHAEL BARONE Mitt Romney’s selection of Paul Ryan was supposed to be a problem for the Republicans. So said a chorus of chortling Democrats. So said a gaggle of anonymous seasoned Republican operatives. All of which was echoed gleefully by mainstream media. The problem, these purveyors of the conventional wisdom all said, was Medicare — to be more specific, the future changes in Medicare set out in the budget resolutions Ryan fashioned as House Budget Committee chairman and persuaded almost all House and Senate Republicans to vote for. But while Democrats licked their chops at the prospect of scaring old ladies that they’d be sent downhill in wheelchairs, the Medicare issue seems to be working in the other direction. Romney and Ryan have gone on the offense, noting that while their plan calls for no changes for current Medicare recipients and those over 55, Obamacare, saved from demolition by Chief Justice John Roberts, cuts $716 billion from the politically popular Medicare to pay for Obama’s politically unpopular health care law. The Romney campaign is putting TV advertising money behind this message, and it will have plenty

more to spend — quite possibly more than the Obama forces — once the RomneyRyan ticket is officially nominated in Tampa, Fla. this week. Team Obama is visibly squirming. It turns out that Ryan and Romney, who in late 2011 and early 2012 moved quietly but deliberately toward embracing the Ryan agenda, may have outthought their adversaries. But Medicare/Mediscare is not the only thing on which the Democrats have underestimated Ryan and the putative presidential nominee who selected him from the high-quality field of potential VP nominees from which he made his pick. Ryan brings two other things to the Republican ticket that could prove important in the two-month sprint from the Tampa and Charlotte, N.C, conventions to Election Day. One is foreign policy chops. Romney has less in the way of exposure to serious involvement in foreign and defense policy than any major party nominee since Bill Clinton in 1992 and Romney’s fellow Bay Stater Michael Dukakis in 1988. Ryan, as a member of the House, theoretically brings a little more. But actually a good bit more, to judge from a little noticed speech he delivered three blocks
from the White House to the Alexander Hamilton Society in June 2011. In that speech, as Wall Street Journal columnist Bret Stephens noted recently, Ryan showed that “he knows how to think.” “Our fiscal policy and our foreign policy are on a collision course,” said Ryan, whose number-crunching knack clearly appealed to fellow numbers-cruncher Romney. Defense spending accounted for 39 percent of the federal budget in 1970, said Ryan (who was born that year), but accounts for only 16 percent today. Under current budget pressures, it is at risk of going far lower. Ryan referenced Princeton scholar Aaron Friedberg’s book “The Weary Titan,” on how Britain ceded world leadership a century ago in the face of economic pressures. He pointed out that while Britain could assume that the United States, with similar values and goals, might take up the burden, we have no similar fallback today. Ryan acknowledged that our long-term dedication to freedom and democracy must sometimes yield to short-term interests. But that dedication, not occasional accommodations, must be our lodestar.

As Stephens argues, this puts Ryan much more than Barack Obama in line with the examples set by Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman, John Kennedy and Ronald Reagan and — dangerous to say it — George W. Bush. Romney takes the same approach on this, and on the other valuable quality Ryan brings to the Republican ticket. And that is his solid mooring in the lessons of America’s Founding Fathers. “America is an idea,” Ryan said, that “our rights come to us from God and nature,” rights that “belong to every person everywhere.” This election can be seen as a contest between the Founders’ ideas and those of the Progressives, who saw the Founders as outmoded in an industrial era. Ryan strengthens Romney in his invocation of the Founders. Obama is stuck with the tinny and outdated debunking of the Progressives. Which rings truer today?

State Briefs Associated Press
Port dredging helps restore Deer Island GULFPORT — Dredging at the Port of Gulfport is helping to restore acres of shoreline at Deer Island that has been wiped away by decades of erosion. The Sun Herald reports that the Deer Island Restoration Project will bring the closest of the five barrier islands back to its 1850s footprint, based on maps held by the state Department of Marine Resources. George Ramseur, a DMR marine administrator, says the partnership with the Port of Gulfport sets a precedent with the beneficial use of dredge material.
Previously, dredge material would have been trucked to landfills. Now it can be used to re-create marsh habitats that are beneficial for commercial and recreational fishing. Using the port’s spoils from dredging, the DMR will add at least 40 acres to the island’s east tip. “This project would not have been possible without the Port of Gulfport,” Ramseur said. The port has three projects in progress at its West Pier. The “+25 Fill Phase 1” project was contracted to W.C. Fore Trucking in June for $19.1 million. Dirt from Harrison County pits will bump up the West Pier from 10 feet above sea level to 25 feet. It’s set to be complet-
ed in 2013.
Mayor found guilty of simple assault LELAND— Leland Mayor James Lowe has been convicted of simple assault related to an incident at a special board meeting at Leland City Hall on July 18. Washington County Justice Court Judge Jim Campbell found Lowe guilty during a hearing on Thursday on complaint filed by 64-year-old Leland resident Jeri Bolden. The Delta DemocratTimes reports that Lowe was ordered to pay court costs, but said he is appealing the ruling. Bolden claimed Lowe verbally assaulted her at the meeting by making
derogatory remarks about her deceased husband. Lowe denied the claim. Lowe says other witnesses are lying, too. Bolden filed claims to the Leland Police Department and the Washington County Sheriff’s Department and both investigated the incident. Bolden said she was happy with the judge’s verdict.
Hearing set on budget proposal COLUMBUS — The City Council will move ahead with a public hearing on a proposed fiscal year 2013 budget. The Commercial Dispatch reports that during a budget hearing this past week, the council
voted to increase garbage rates from $15 to $17 per month. The rate increase was an effort to pare down a deficit of more than $400,000. As the council debated the merits of removing new personnel and equipment from the budget, Councilman Charlie Box said tough decisions would have to be made. “It is our responsibility to serve the citizens, but part of our responsibility is to keep taxes low enough to keep people here,” Box said. “If we keep growing the government every year, we are eventually going to have to look at raising taxes. I get a lot more calls about taxes than I do garbage. We either need to raise taxes or make
cuts. Garbage seems the fairest way to do this — it hits everyone.” Mayor Robert Smith said the increase in rates is a temporary fix. “We’re going to have to raise taxes next year,” he said.
Dredging tries to clear river GREENVILLE — Another day, another sandbar to clear on the clogged Mississippi River. It’s a routine that’s settled in as the drought in the nation’s central states leaves the river without the rainfall that is its lifeblood. One estimate put barge industry losses at $1 billion the last time the river was this low, in 1988.

Most laid-off US workers take pay cuts in new jobs Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The U.S. economic recovery hasn’t felt much like one even for people who managed to find new jobs after being laid off. Most of them have had to settle for less pay. Only 56 percent of Americans laid off from January 2009 through December 2011 had found jobs by the start of this year, the Labor Department said Friday. More than half of them took jobs with lower pay. One-third took pay cuts of 20 percent or more.
Nation Briefs
AUGUST 26, 2012 8 PM
The figures would be even lower if people who could find only part-time jobs were included in the total. The report provides an illustration of the job market’s persistent weakness well after the Great Recession officially ended in June 2009. It also documents that while the economy has added nearly 3 million jobs since the recovery began, many pay less than those that were lost. And it points to the challenge for President Barack Obama, who’s
seeking re-election with unemployment at 8.3 percent. No president since World War II has faced re-election with unemployment above 8 percent. It was 7.8 percent when Gerald Ford lost to Jimmy Carter in 1976. Laid-off workers always have a harder time finding new jobs than do people who quit. But since the government began tracking such data in 1984, people who lost jobs in a recovery haven’t had it as hard as they did in the one that began three years ago.

Kindergarten gets letter from president DYERSBURG, Tenn.— A West Tennessee kindergarten class that wrote to President Obama is excited about getting a reply. Dyersburg Primary School teacher Katie Penland told the State Gazette that every morning her kindergarten class begins with students repeating “I can” statements revolving around their learning goal followed with “I can be the president.” She says her students’ enthusiasm for learning motivated her to have them write to the president. She included a letter of her own explaining the purpose of the students’ letters and thanking him for his time. Not long afterward, the school received an envelope postmarked Washington, D.C. Inside, a letter from President Obama thanked the students for writing and encouraged them to always do their best. “I am continually inspired by the enthusiasm and bright ideas of young Americans, and I appreciate your taking the time to share your thoughts with me,” he wrote. “One of the most important things I can do as President is make sure your tomorrow is as bright as it can be. Young people like you are America’s future and whether we fall behind or race ahead as a Nation will depend largely on your generation. As you grow and learn, remember that our country is counting on you to be a dedicated and hard-working student. I encourage you to set your sights high, aim for excellence in all that you do, and try each day to improve the lives of others in your community.”
Florida prepares for Hurricane Isaac MIAMI — Officials organized shelters and urged vacationers to leave the Florida Keys as Tropical Storm Isaac approached on Saturday, though preparations farther north focused
on getting ready for the Republican National Convention. Gov. Rick Scott declared a state of emergency to make sure local and state agencies would be ready. The governor said during a media briefing that delegates were being told on how to stay safe during a storm, and officials were ready for storm surge, bridge closures and other problems that could arise during the convention. He also said he was in close communication with local, state and federal agencies, as well as convention officials. “We are a hospitality state. We know how to take care of people and we want to ensure their safety,” Scott said Saturday. A hurricane warning had been issued for the Keys, though it was still a sunny day in Tampa. Forecast models show Isaac won’t hit Tampa head-on, but the storm will still likely lash the city with rain and strong winds just as the convention ramps up. Protests were to start in full force on Sunday afternoon, and demonstrators have vowed that they will make their presence known rain or shine. Isaac was blamed for at least three deaths after dousing flood-prone Haiti and was expected to scrape eastern Cuba on Saturday. It was forecast to hit the Keys late Sunday or early Monday, and it then could bring stormy conditions to Florida’s west coast before moving to the Panhandle.
Groups to push marriage equality CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The constitutional ban on same-sex marriage in the host state of the Democratic National Convention has stirred anger and resentment among advocates for marriage equality, many of whom are converging on Charlotte this weekend for the city’s gay pride festival. Organizers say they hope the festival will draw attention to the issue and create momentum that lasts through the political convention that starts the following
week. Some of the thousands of protesters expected at the convention will be demonstrating for gay marriage. “We’re excited that the convention is in Charlotte,” said David Webb, one of the pride festival’s organizers. “But we also want to show that we’re united and will continue to push for change.” When North Carolina voters passed the constitutional amendment in May, supporters of gay marriage first demanded that Democrats rethink Charlotte as the location of their convention. But advocates have since seized on the party gathering as a high-profile chance to make their message heard — with support from the party itself. The national party is expected to approve marriage equality as part of its national platform during the convention being held from Sept. 4-6. For the first two days, the Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte’s downtown will be the main venue. On the last day, President Barack Obama will make his acceptance speech at the 74,000-seat outdoor Bank of America Stadium where the city’s NFL team plays.
Airlines: You can’t wear that! DALLAS — Airlines give many reasons for refusing to let you board, but none stir as much debate as this: How you’re dressed. A woman flying from Las Vegas on Southwest this spring says she was confronted by an airline employee for showing too much cleavage. In another recent case, an American Airlines pilot lectured a passenger because her T-shirt bore a four-letter expletive. She was allowed to keep flying after draping a shawl over the shirt. Both women told their stories to sympathetic bloggers, and the debate over what you can wear in the air went viral. It’s not always clear what’s appropriate. Airlines don’t publish dress codes. There are no rules that spell out the highest hemline or the lowest neckline allowed.

There is litle debate today regarding the impact that stress has on the effective performance of workplace personnel. In his b o o k , “Stress and the Man- Dr. Richard Brown ager�, Karl Albrecht Columnist states that chronic stress, prolonged beyond reasonable bounds, can not only create intolerable levels of discomfort and greatly reduces one's performance, but it can steadily degrade a person's health to the danger point. Pressure, Stressors and Stress It is important to know the difference between pressure, stressors and stress. Pressure refers those
aspects of the environment that are problematic and require some some sort of adaptation or response. Stressors are those aspects of the environment that one considers ground for becoming personally anxious. Stress is in the person; the individual's attempt to make the physical and/ or emotional adjustment required by the situation. These distinctions are important, for they open up several options for dealing with stress: ■One can choose to remove one's self from a pressure situation. ■One can re-engineer the situation to reduce or eliminate the pressure; or ■One can learn to react less intensely to many situation. Getting in Control The feeling of “out of control� is one of the chief causes of stress. However,
you can choose to control many aspects of your life. Dr. Denis Waitly, author of the best selling book. The Psychology of Winning, provides the following suggestions: ■Control Your Environment — Learn to relax and practice using affirmative self-talk. Do your best; but unconditionally forgive yourself for any past mistakes. Set reasonable goals. Produce positive thoughts about your work, home, performance and yourself. ■Control Your Diet — To unstress your body reduce or avoid caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, excessive sugars and salts. Also reduce fat and carbohydrate intake. These items will increase your stress and pressure level. ■Control Your Exercise — Look with pride at your body. Be good to it. It's the only body you'll ever have. Develop posi-
tive thoughts about exercise. Make sure you have at least twelve of exercise daily. ■Control Your Thoughts — Thoughts are made up of images and you alone can control each image. Worry about problems will only increase stress. If you can do something about them, do it. If you can't then worry is useless. Never compare yourself with anyone. God made you unique unto yourself. Nothing good has ever from a negative thought. So develop the habit of thinking positively.

Bodiford, Lady Bulldogs on a mission BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian
MICHIE, Tenn. — A group of college basketball players recently left the country to help in the mission field and not on a basketball court. The Union University Lady Bulldogs went to Haiti on Aug. 4 to assist on a medical mission trip. This team of missionaries included freshman Chelsea Bodiford, a former standout for McNairy Central and a member at Acton Church of Christ. Bodiford was one of three freshmen joining their veteran teammates on the trip to Thomazeau, Haiti. The Lady Bulldogs were joined by two Jackson doctors and one from Nashville on the Haitian journey. Chelsea’s job was to check the
patient’s height, weight and blood pressure when they came to the clinic. The medical experience will be helpful because she wants to be a dermatologist. “I learned a lot about myself on this mission trip,” said Bodiford. “I found that I could do more things that were outside my comfort zone.” Union coach Mark Campbell takes his team on a foreign mission trip every two years. He uses it as a way to help his players learn each other and to teach them about serving others. “I grew to love every girl on the team,” commented Bodiford. She laughed and said it was easier to learn your teammates when you live with them in a house for a week. Bodiford discovered she
was blessed much more at home than she ever thought after spending a week in the poor country of Haiti. “I appreciate my home and my blessings a lot more after seeing how they live in Haiti,” she said. “They are so appreciative of what little they have and they are happy people.” It was not an easy week for Bodiford because it was the first time she had been out of the country without her parents, Richie and Lorrie Bodiford. “We saw a little boy collapse and almost die from pneumonia,” Bodiford commented. “It broke my heart to see how pitiful he was when he got to the doctor, but he lived.” The Union players saw over
1,000 people during their five days at the clinic. Bodiford said they saw a 100-year-old woman that was just happy to be alive. Bodiford said they were taking the children swimming when they found adults taking a public shower. She laughed and said the players got used to it by the end of the week. ”Our goal was to make sure the people knew they were getting care in the name of Jesus,” said Bodiford. “We wanted to help them and teach them about God.” While the Haiti citizens may have needed a translator to understand the Southern accents of the Union girls, they did not need help understanding that God’s love had been shown to them.

New coach Hugh Freeze tries to revive Mississippi Associated Press
OXFORD — First-year Mississippi coach Hugh Freeze promises his offense will play fast. Winning, that might be a little more difficult for the Rebels. “What I do know is that we will compete with passion and intensity for 60 minutes every time we’re on the field,” Freeze said. “How does that translate into wins and loss-
es? I’m not completely sure. Nobody is. The Southeastern Conference is incredibly talented and competitive and we’re going to have to earn everything we get.” Ole Miss has already lived through two dreadful football seasons that produced just six total victories, a 1-15 Southeastern Conference record and an embarrassing loss to a Football Championship Subdivision program. That led to
the firing of coach Houston Nutt and the hiring of Freeze, whose meteoric rise through the coaching ranks has led him to Oxford, which is just 50 miles from his hometown in Independence, Miss. Less than 10 years ago, Freeze was coaching high school football. Now he’s charged with leading the Rebels to the top of the brutal SEC Western Division. Freeze has already turned
around programs at NAIAlevel Lambuth (Tenn.) and at Arkansas State. But Ole Miss will likely prove to be his toughest challenge. “There’s going to be some times we’re going to rejoice this year and there will be some difficult times,” Freeze said. “... I think those are times we’ll have to lean on our core values. Hopefully Please see FREEZE | 9A

Book on bin Laden raid coming out Sept. 11 BY HILLEL ITALIE AND LOLITA C. BALDOR Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A member of the U.S. Navy SEAL team that killed Osama bin Laden has written a firsthand account of the operation, triggering more questions about the possible public release of classified information involving the historic assault of the terror leader’s compound in Pakistan. U.S. military officials say they do not believe the book has been read or cleared by the Defense Department, which reviews publications by military members to make sure that no classified material is revealed. The book, titled “No Easy Day� and scheduled to be released next month on the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, comes amid a heated debate over whether members of the military — both active duty and retired — should engage in political battles. “I haven’t read the book and am unaware
that anyone in the Department has reviewed it,� said Pentagon press secretary George Little. White House and CIA officials also said the book had not been reviewed by their agencies. The book announcement comes just as a group of retired special operations and CIA officers have launched a campaign accusing President Barack Obama of revealing classified details of the mission and turning the killing of bin Laden into a campaign centerpiece. The group complains that Obama has taken too much credit for the operation. Their public complaints drew a rebuke from Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, as well as other special operations forces, who called the partisan criticism unprofessional. Dempsey said that such public political involvement by members of armed services erodes public confidence and trust in the military.
The author of the upcoming bin Laden book, who has left the military, is using the pseudonym Mark Owen. And in a news release from publisher Dutton, an imprint of Penguin Group (USA), Owen describes the book as an effort to “set the record straight about one of the most important missions in U.S. military history.� He said the book is about “the guys� and the sacrifices that the special operations forces make to do the job and is written in the hope that it will inspire young men to become SEALs. If the book sticks to his personal thoughts about the job and the mission, Owen may be in the clear. But often special operations forces must sign nondisclosure agreements. And they are not allowed to release classified information, such as intelligence data or military tactics and procedures used to ensure success of the May 2011 raid. Christine Ball, a spokeswoman for Dut-
ton, said the work was vetted by a former special operations attorney provided by the author. “He vetted it for tactical, technical and procedural information as well as information that could be considered classified by compilation and found it to be without risk to national security,� Ball said. Defense Department spokesman Lt. Col. James Gregory said that if the book reveals classified information about the raid, the Pentagon would “defer to the Department of Justice.� According to Pentagon regulations, retired personnel, former employees and non-active duty members of the Reserves “shall use the DoD security review process to ensure that information they submit for public release does not compromise national security.� The CIA also could weigh in because the agency ran the secret bin Laden mission. If there is classified information in the book, the
former SEAL could face criminal charges. And even if he donates the money to charity, for instance, that is unlikely to prevent the Justice Department from suing to collect any future book proceeds. Earlier this year, a federal judge ruled a CIA whistle-blower had to forfeit future money he earned from a scathing book he wrote about the spy agency after he failed to get approval from his former employer before publication. The CIA accused the officer of breaking his secrecy agreement with the U.S. The former officer, who worked deep undercover, published the book in July 2008 using the pseudonym Ishmael Jones. The CIA said his book, “The Human Factor: Inside the CIA’s Dysfunctional Intelligence Culture,� was submitted to the agency’s publications review board under a secrecy agreement that covers books written by former employees. But Jones, who published the book before the review
process was completed, said it contained no classified information. In 2010, the Defense Department claimed a former Army intelligence officer’s war memoir threatened national security. The Pentagon paid $47,000 to destroy 9,500 copies of the book, called “Operation Dark Heart: Spycraft and Special Ops on the Frontlines of Afghanistan — and the Path to Victory.� The book was written by Anthony Shaffer, whose lawyer said the Army Reserve cleared the manuscript beforehand but the Defense Department later rescinded the approval, claiming the text contained classified information. Shaffer and the publisher agreed to remove the material. Dutton, which announced the book’s pending release Wednesday, is planning a major first print run of 300,000 copies, Ball said. The coauthor, journalist Kevin Maurer, has worked on four previous books.
Fort Campbell soldiers learn about Eid al-Fitr BY KRISTIN M. HALL Associated Press
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. — Fort Campbell soldiers who are training for new advisory roles in Afghanistan celebrated the Islamic holiday Eid al-Fitr on Wednesday by sharing a meal, conversing in Afghan languages and learning traditional dances and games. Thousands of troops from the Tennessee-Kentucky state line will be returning to Afghanistan this year, but their roles will be shifting from combat skills to advising and assisting Afghanistan troops and police. Hundreds of soldiers were selected to go through a 12-week language immersion program at Fort Campbell and they gathered to try out their skills during the holiday celebrated at the end of Ramadan. Everyone from the newest privates to the highestranking officer on the post showed off their skills as ambassadors, rather than war fighters, as they looked to find common ground between two cultures still
struggling to understand each other after years of fighting side-by-side. Even the division's commanding general, Maj. Gen. James McConville, gave a short speech in Dari, the main language spoken by Afghan government officials and the Afghan Army. This came after the soldiers shared a meal of vegetable kabobs, rice and lamb with their Afghan language instructors. McConville said later that Afghan people and troops appreciate that American soldiers will be arriving in the country already able to make introductions and are familiar with Afghan cultural norms. “You can see their eyes light up,� he said. “It means we care enough about you, or we respect you enough, that we are willing to take the time to learn your language and learn your culture.� The trust between American and their Afghan partners has been strained in recent months due in large part to a spate of attacks on NATO forces by Afghans soldiers or policemen.

Enjoying making the most of things Making do out of next to nothing. I love that phrase. And enjoy the challenge. For instance, hospital pillows. Almost every time Ryland somebody Bruhwiler in the family made a Columnist trip to the hospital over the last umpteen years, I’d end up with two or three of those paper-covered pillows. They aren’t particularly comfortable, but if you don’t take them home with you, they’ll just get trashed. Can’t stand the thought of all the tons of garbage that every hospital fills The Good Earth with every single day.
So there I am, carting an armful of pillows out to the car in the parking lot along with that dull pink plastic “dishpan,” the half-used tissue box, chapstick, hand lotion. When we have an overflow of company, I put nice pillowcases on those doodlysquat pillows to make them passable. Kids don’t mind, or folks who want an extra to tuck beneath the storebought pillow that isn’t quite as plump as they prefer. Unfortunately, of course, it doesn’t take too long before the hospital cheapies herniate. The paper covers begin to shred; next thing you know, the batting’s poking out in lumps. I was born a good 20 years after the Depression, but definitely have a Depression Mentality.
Throw away all that “perfectly good” batting? Of course not. I tuck them into the corners of my linen closet. We have a Cadillac of a linen closet. Well, maybe not a Cadillac. That’d be cedar shelving and climate-controlled. Call it a Winnebago. When John built this house 20-plus years ago, he realized there was space next to the guest bath for a room about six feet wide and twice as long. I can’t remember whether he asked if I’d like him to turn it into a walk-in storage closet or if he just did it, knowing I’d be pleased. Howsoever, he built shelves all the way down both sides of a narrow passageway with a window at the back. Though it also contains our lug-
gage and space heaters and bandaides and soap — not to mention my sewing materials, literally bolts of them -- I call it the linen closet. I love that thing. Unfortunately, it can hold a bunch of stuff. Too much stuff. Last spring I finally got around to pulling every single item out, top to bottom, passing on armloads to friends and the Good Will, washing and organizing. That room had been an eyesore. Today, it’d make Nurse Ratched proud. In the process, I must have unearthed more than a dozen little pillows in various stages of disintegration. Piled them up in a spare bedroom till I could “get around” to turning them into . . . Have you guessed it? Yes! Dog beds!
If there’s anything man’s best friend enjoys, it’s a fine big bed, preferably round, lots of cushioning, and “sides” so he can nestle in with a contented sigh. Every time I pass one of those beauties in a store, I sigh myself, thinking how much Cricker and Saber would savor that softness. But I can’t see spending 60 or 70 dollars on a dog bed. Does not sit right. Especially not when I have a dozen herniated pillows with which I could most certainly Make Do. Still, they might have sat in our guest room gathering dust indefinitely except for two factors that happened to coincide. The Olympics on the television. And houseguests on the way.
Couldn’t let my old friend Ty realize how bad a procrastinator I can be. Not to mention slob. That pile of frazzled pillows looked terrible, as did two other piles of fraying towels and balding blankets from which I’d been planning for forever to sew up covers for dog beds old and new. And since I get glued to the TV for most of two weeks straight when the Olympics roll around, it makes sense to turn that couch potato time into something productive. So far, three big dog beds and one handsome cover. I am on a roll. (Ryland Bruhwiler lives on a farm in McNairy County, Tenn.

The story of Corinth resident Walter A. Overton BY TOM PARSON NPS Ranger
I’ve told you about the famous generals and soldiers, the nurses, even a teacher, but what about that average Joe who made Corinth his home? Just an ordinary guy trying to make a buck and raise a family in a quiet little railroad town. In this case the everyman was Walter A. Overton. In the early days of Corinth, everybody was from somewhere else, and that included Walter. He was born in Georgia and attended Mercer University and for some reason settled with his wife Fannie and two kids in North Mississippi. He celebrated his 30th birthday in 1860, and if he wasn’t the richest man in town, he wasn’t the poorest either. He was a mason, socially and professionally, and made bricks for 1.50 a thousand. He owned a slave, John, who was a bricklayer and they worked together on chimneys and pillars for the new homes cropping up in town. Walter also pulled in an income from plaster work, rental properties, loaning money, as well as serving in the post office and as a local magistrate. Walter kept a small diary and the entries record the events that shaped the nation’s future as well as the day to day events of a working man. May 1 (1860), “Spent the day in town. They took a man up there today for running away with another man’s wife & gave him a pretty good whipping. He was a scamp & a coward or he never would
have submitted to it.” June 16 (1860), “They caught a thief in town last night and committed him to jail today. They had a prize wrestle in town this evening. I am fearful that the morals of Corinth are on the decrease.” In politics, Walter was a moderate. He was a Democrat but he didn’t embrace the cause of the fire-eaters who called for secession. He went to the political meetings as the presidential candidates made their way from town to town and listened to the speeches of Stephen Douglas, John Bell and John C. Breckenridge. In January of 1861, there was a convention in Jackson to determine if the state would secede. Like most of Tishomingo County, Walter voted the “Union ticket,” when elections were held for county delegates. Jan 10 (1861) “They finished laying the track of the Mobile & Ohio. Mississippi passed by her convention yesterday an ordinance of immediate secession, and hence we are out of the United States now. I fear great trouble is close at our doors.” In no time at all Corinth was teeming with soldiers of the new Confederacy. Not all of them were saints, and not all of them were what they appeared to be. Aug 5 (1861) “Spent the day in town…there were a good many soldiers there and they were a bad set. I saw one ring fight, and several minor fisticuffs. I expected to see some of them killed but there was not. They started for Memphis just be-
The old Cruise Street School wasn’t a school until after the Civil War. The building was a church before the war and became a Union arsenal during the war. fore sundown. They had two women with them dressed in men’s clothing, going soldiering.” Walter was a member of the local militia company “The Corinth Rifles” but dropped out prior to their departure to Pensacola, Fla. He drilled with a cavalry company for a time but his only active service came in September of 1861 with the 2nd Mississippi Infantry in the “Army of 10,000.” The “army” was called up for a mere 60 days of service. Walter was sent up to Kentucky and returned at the completion of his time having never seen the enemy. In early March the Confederate Army of the Mississippi began to gather in Corinth. Thousands of tents popped up around
the countryside, several of them in Walter’s backyard. Mar 3(1862) “A regiment of soldiers have camped on my land and there is no telling how much damage they are doing it. They are cutting all the timber and burning all the rails. If they stay long they will ruin it.” A frustrated Walter went to see Gen. Adley Gladden to make his complaint. Mar 25 (1862) “General Gladden this evening sent out some of his aides and the Provost Marshal to see what damage they had done me, and they came back and said they had done me no damage. If that is the way our friends treat us, Lord deliver us from our friends.” The Battle of Shiloh
began on the 6th of April and the following day Walter made his way north to help. Apr 7 (1862) “I started to the battlefield this evening but could not get there. I stopped at Atkins’ and helped to dress the wounded until 11 o’clock. The road is crowded with troops making their way back to Corinth.” The last entry of the small diary was made on May 28, 1862, the day the Confederate forces abandoned Corinth to the enemy. Walter had taken Fannie and the children to Holly Springs, but had returned in time to see the retreat. He pulled up stakes, as did most of the residents, but he eventually came home to Corinth. The Overtons had three
more children and eventually found the quiet life they hoped to find in Corinth. Walter resumed his brick making, but he gave up the physical work and became a teacher. He taught school in the old Cruise Street building that had seen duty as a church and an arsenal before it became a seat of learning. In his final years, Walter became a Justice of the Peace and passed away in 1900. Walter and his beloved Fannie are still in Corinth. You can visit them in the old City Cemetery over on the west side. (Tom Parson is a ranger at the National Park Service’s Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center. His articles appear Sundays.)
Stamps helped finance costs of expensive Civil War The Civil War proved to be long and very expensive at $2 million a day. Three days after Fort Sumter, President Abraham Lincoln ordered the Northern states to field RaNae an army Vaughn of 75,000 men. ConHistorically gress imSpeaking mediately enacted a comprehensive excise tax bill in an effort to raise the revenue to meet the mounting expenses of the federal government. A large amount of the newly imposed taxes included stamp duties on propri-
etary medicine. When this bill was passed on July 1, 1862, the U.S. Government publicly advertised for bids for the large number of revenue stamps required. Within a few weeks of the printing of the regular revenue stamps, several manufacturers of proprietary medicines (who possessed a keen advertising sense) asked the government if they could obtain distinctive stamps with their own trademark or design on them. This request was approved and extended to all merchants by a regulation issued in January 1863. The idea proved to be extremely popular. The stamps provided companies with a successful advertising
t o o l which generated sales. The first “Simmons Simmons Civil Liver War revenue Medistamp cine” ever made for sale was made in liquid form and put in a 5-gallon keg, which was carried through the country in a buggy and retailed in quantities to suit the purchaser by Dr. M.A. Simmons and his father. Dr. Simmons first came to Mississippi in 1842. First located at Holly Springs, Dr. Simmons moved to Iuka in 1858, where he
lived for 20 years. In 1878, he moved to St. Louis, Mo., and sold out the right to make M. A. Simmons Liver Medicine in 1879. I do not know how many people helped make the medicine while in Iuka. He had the mill where he made the medicine, also a drug store. In the second year of the Civil War at least three major battles -- Shiloh, Corinth and Iuka -- were fought near Dr. Simmons’ drug store. These battles involved thousands of soldiers on both sides. Without having to stretch your imagination, it is not hard to understand that the demand for Dr. Simmons’ medicine and other supplies would be

Fall hunting seasons begin with squirrel, dove Local sportsmen have been treated with unusually pleasant weather for a late August here in the Deep South, and those who are hunting enthusiasts hope this is a trend that will continue for at least another weekend. The start of the fall hunting seasons officially get underway next weekend, as Mississippi and Tennessee each open their first dove season on Saturday, Sept. 1. Technically, according to the schedule, the fall hunting seasons got underway in Tennessee on Saturday. Squirrel season opened on Aug. 25. Squirrel season always opens in August in Tennessee and I’ve never understood why or, for that
matter, why anyone would want to go, considering the less David than ideal Green conditions and the Outdoors number of bugs that’ll pester you to death. I’ve been meaning to get some answers. Just haven’t gotten around to it without letting it slip my mind. But, despite the fact, I bet hunters in Tennessee view the opening of dove season the same way Mississippi hunters do. They probably see it as sort of a celebration, a social gathering between family and
friends to welcome in the new round of fall hunting seasons. In the midst of all the camaraderie. “yee-haws and hoopla,� hunters still want to be at their best. With that said and considering the long offseason, I’m going to give a few subtle reminders that could lead to a safe, enjoyable and more successful weekend. Selecting the best location for setting up on opening day where you’re likely to get in on lots of action is a key component in bagging a limit of doves. This can be done by observing the entrance and exit flight paths of the birds on a field prior to the season opener or, if
that’s not possible, set up near a field corner, a lone snag tree, a power line or a pathway between two groups of trees. All are likely destination travel routes. Mourning doves are bad about stopping and lighting in a dead snag before entering a field. If one is not nearby, you can create your own. Do this by planting a sturdy cane or pole and then affixing a dove decoy on top for added enticement. But it’s not going to matter what you do or whether you’re in a good location if your gun is not operable as it should be. It’s probably been several months since you’ve fired the ole shotgun, so slap some oil to it and
thoroughly clean it before going afield. There’s nothing more frustrating than having your trusty automatic jam-up and pretend to be a single shot, especially when droves of birds are whistling by overhead. Also, don’t forget to check the expiration date on your hunting license. In Mississippi, the license is good from the day it was purchased in the past year to the same date the next. It can be quite easy to forget considering Mississippi licenses used to go from July to July a few years ago. Though I’m mentioning safety last, it should always be placed at the top of the list when hunting. Never ever shoot at a
Cochran, Wicker lead south on conservation BY JAMES L. CUMMINS Conservation Corner
The increased tax incentive for donations of conservation easements expired on Dec. 31. Congress is considering an extension of this increased tax incentive, which is so important to conservation. While 21 senators have co-sponsored the legislation, Sens. Cochran and Wicker are the only senators in the Southeast who are supporting the bill. As usual, the Mississippi delegation is leading the Nation in supporting conservationbased legislation. Many organizations, including Wildlife Mississippi and the Mississippi Land Trust, worked hard for a permanent extension of the tax incentive. Brian Ball-
inger, director of the Mississippi Land Trust, states, “We are very excited about the possible extension of the incentives for conservation easements and we are very thankful for Sen. Cochran and Sen. Wicker’s efforts to ensure the extension is considered this year.� Rand Wentworth, president of the Land Trust Alliance, said, “This renewed tax incentive for donations of conservation easements is one of the best things Congress could do this year to help landowners choose the conservation option over sprawl. Especially for family farmers and ranchers of modest income, this is a great way to help them keep productive land from being lost.� The incentive, which ap-
plies to a landowner’s federal income tax, will: 1) raise the deduction a donor can take for donating a voluntary conservation easement from 30 percent of their income in any year to 50 percent; 2) allow farmers and ranchers to deduct up to 100 percent of their income; and 3) increase the number of years over which a donor can take deductions from 6 to 16 years. Conservation easements can assist landowners in protecting their land, wildlife habitat, scenic areas or historic buildings. Every conservation easement document is individually crafted and reflects the special qualities of the land protected and the needs of the landowner. The Mississippi Land Trust (www.misslandtrust.
org) is pleased to make available its conservation easement handbook at no charge. The handbook is just another in a long line of educational tools that the Mississippi Land Trust has developed to help educate Mississippi’s private landowners about conservation easements and their use. For a free copy of the handbook, please call Brian Ballinger of the Mississippi Land Trust at (662) 686-3375. (Daily Corinthian columnist James L.

The opening day of dove season is a fun time to be gathered around a field with family and friends, not gathered together beside a friend or family member at the local hospital.

was glued over the end of the box that contained the small glass bottles of Dr. M. A. Simmons’ Liver Medicine. When the box was opened, the stamp was usually torn in half. Even those stamps that were not torn were likely discarded along with the box. After Dr. Simmons moved to St. Louis in 1878, he continued to use the stamps after having the die altered so the words “Iuka, Miss.� were replaced by the words “St. Louis, Mo.� The St. Louis stamps, of which 115,250 were printed, were in use for a relatively short period of time due to the fact the U.S. Government repealed the Civil War tax on March 3, 1883. Even though there were far fewer St. Louis stamps, it is the Iuka stamp that is most often sought after by collectors.

Couple marries while hovering over beach Associated Press
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. — Here comes the bride, all dressed in a jet pack that’s zipping down a California beach. Amanda Volf and Grant Engler donned waterpowered packs Thursday to be married in Newport Beach. The 25-year-old former wedding planner from Grand Rapids, Mich., says she wanted a unique ceremony. So the couple donned
the $90,000 contraptions on their backs, along with a wetsuit for the groom and white board shorts and a rash-guard shirt for the bride. The jetpacks from Jetlev Southwest helped the couple hover a few feet above the water, to the cheers of their wedding guests. Everything went smoothly — except for a kayaker who capsized during the newlyweds’ first dance on the water.

‘True Blood’ cookbook full of crimson delicacies BY STACEY PLAISANCE Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — “True Blood” fans can soon concoct their own blood-red beet bisque, crimson sweet tea and other Cajun delicacies inspired by the hit HBO vampire drama and compiled in a new cookbook. “True Blood” is filmed partly in Louisiana and is set in the fictional Louisiana town of Bon Temps. The state’s cuisine is often referenced in the series, where vampires and mortals mingle over bowls of okra gumbo, jambalaya, and red beans and rice. The cookbook, “True Blood: Eats, Drinks, and Bites from Bon Temps,” was compiled by Cajun chef Marcelle Bienvenu and is being released in bookstores on Wednes-
day, shortly after Sunday’s broadcast of the show’s fifth-season finale. “I’m going to be honest with you, I had never seen the show before they asked me to do this cookbook,” said Bienvenu, a chef from the Cajun town of St. Martinville, La., who lived in New Orleans for several years and now teaches culinary arts at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, La. “I sat down and watched it with my notebook, and I was amazed how much food was mentioned in the series,” she said. “It was fun making the recipes come to life. I think people are still mystified by south Louisiana food. There’s still such a mystique about the food and culture here.” “True Blood” stars re-
al-life husband and wife actors Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer. Paquin plays the show’s beloved heroine Sookie Stackhouse, a mostly human waitress who falls for vampire Bill Compton, a Confederate veteran turned into a bloodsucker played by Moyer. In the cookbook, recipes are accompanied with pictures and excerpts from the series. For instance, a recipe for creamy crawfish dip is displayed among pictures from a scene in which Stackhouse drives to Shreveport, La., to see a werewolf but is instead greeted at the door by Debbie Pelt, a character who has twice tried to kill her. In the scene, Debbie offers Sookie a helping of crawfish dip.
Besides food, the cookbook includes nearly twodozen drink recipes with names like Tequila Moonrise, Lovin’ in the Coven and Moonshine Rising. “The drinks were a lot of fun to make,” said Bienvenu, who consulted a bartender friend from Thibodaux, La., to create the mixtures. She also used her students at Nicholls State University to test her food recipes, she said. Bienvenu said that while the recipes have been given names inspired by the series, “these are real recipes for food we here in Louisiana eat all the time. I think people are really going to enjoy them.” Bienvenu said “True Blood,” which is shown in some 50 countries world-
wide, has been a great way to showcase Louisiana’s unique cuisine — eats like gumbo, jambalaya and etouffee and ingredients like tasso, Andouille sausage, okra, cayenne pepper, yams and mirlitons. The show’s season five finale is Sunday, and the network announced earlier this year that “True Blood” will be returning for a sixth season next year. James Costos, vice president of licensing and retail for HBO, said the cookbook was a natural extension for the show, which already has a fragrance and beauty product line. “The senses play a huge part in ‘True Blood,”’ Costos said. The cookbook is another way to tap into “the carnal desires that
are played out on screen.” This isn’t the first time HBO has merged a show with a cookbook. The network released a collection of recipes from the tables of Italian mob families in the long-running hit drama “The Sopranos,” and there’s a cookbook due out next year based on the New Orleans-shot HBO series “Treme.” “We work with so many amazing chefs on ‘Treme,’ and the concept of combining their experiences with those of our characters as they navigate the culinary landscape of New Orleans was very intriguing,” said Nina Noble, one of the show’s producers. “Treme: Stories and Recipes from the Heart of New Orleans” is due out next spring.
‘50 Shades’ book phenomenon to continue growth this fall BY HILLEL ITALIE AP National Writer
NEW YORK — The “Fifty Shades” phenomenon may only get hotter this fall. Booksellers and publishers expect at least a dozen novels to benefit from E.L. James’ multimillion-selling erotic trilogy, a list-topper since early spring, and new ones continue to be acquired. Releases likely to catch on include Sylvain Reynard’s “Gabriel’s Inferno” and “Gabriel’s Rapture,” Sylvia Day’s “Reflected in You” and a compilation of Harlequin novellas unsubtly titled, “12 Shades of Surrender.” Just in the past two weeks, St. Martin’s Press took on Sara Fawkes’ selfpublished hit, “Anything
He Wants (Dominated by the Billionaire),” and Gallery Books, a Simon & Schuster imprint, signed up Jennifer Probst’s “The Marriage Bargain.” Open Road Integrated Media, a digital publisher, announced it would release the popular “Eighty Days” trilogy, written by a “well-known publishing insider” and a “familiar figure in London’s fetish scene” collectively known as Vina Jackson. “We’re in a moment of time, let’s put it that way,” says Louise Burke, Gallery’s publisher and executive vice president. “There’s a flurry of agents coming to us with books.” Cindy Hwang, executive editor at Berkley Books and Sylvia Day’s publisher, says that thanks to “50
Shades” the door between erotica and mainstream fiction has been “kicked down completely.” The market, “this fascination with the uber-rich,” demands more masters of the universe, at least fictional ones. Still, Hwang adds, “there will be other kinds of books.” New novels are coming from James Patterson, Mitch Albom, Michael Connelly, Dennis Lehane, John Grisham and Patricia Cornwell. J.K. Rowling will find out how many of her adult “Harry Potter” fans are game for a book without wizards with “The Casual Vacancy.” Justin Cronin follows his best-selling “The Passage” with “The Twelve.” Ken Follett has a pair of
Horoscopes Sunday, August 26, 2012 BY HOLIDAY MATHIS Creators Syndicate
Does it really matter what other people think of you? Of course! Unless it doesn’t. You’re the only one who can say, because it matters in direct proportion to the amount that you think it does. Social standing begins with how you rank yourself. So why not give yourself some extra points? ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may feel as though someone is stalling, and as frustrating as this may be, it’s also liberating if you look at it in the right light. Take back the power, and reclaim your schedule. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re on your own journey, so there’s no point in making marks of comparison in other people’s lives. What your friend is doing is especially irrelevant to your path. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ve been working in the dark, metaphorically, and you may be starting to suspect that no one knows where the light switch is. It’s up to you now. Go shine your light and get this mission accomplished. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Getting gussied up is a pleasure in itself that happens to make social life more fun today. But underneath the decorations, your beautiful soul is even more radiant. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). In every life, pain and loss are a matter of fact. It just comes with the territory. Your advantage now is that you have a knack for letting go, finding a gift in the experience and moving quickly
past it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are a special creation of your own making. As it usually goes in the business of making things, the first time doesn’t always turn out, so keep trying new techniques. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Make plans, and then expect them to go well. You’ll have confidence because you know that you’re prepared for the best possible outcome and also for the worst. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Doing nothing is not the same as inaction. Sometimes doing nothing -- in an alert, observant way -- is the absolute best action. When the time is right to move, you’ll be ready. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll make friends quickly today. Don’t worry. You won’t have to keep in touch forever if you don’t want to. Sharing in the building of a beautiful moment is enough. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The shifting scenery around you today is a reminder that whether you hold up your palm against it or turn and swim its current, life goes on. You’ll make split-second decisions about how to deal. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your rapport with a certain someone gets better with every interaction. This person brings out the best in you. Consider spending more time together. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Everyone will not be moving at the same pace. You are polite, and yet unless you are in the armed services, the situation may require you to leave a man behind.
Cryptoquip
projects: A TV miniseries of his epic Medieval saga “World Without End” is scheduled to air on Reelz Channel in October. And his new novel, “Winter of the World,” is the second of his “Century” trilogy on war. The author explained during a recent interview that “Winter of the World,” a World War II story running nearly 1,000 pages, was as an education for him. Tom Wolfe, who helped define 1980s New York in “The Bonfire of the Vanities,” has set the 650page crime story “Back to Blood” in the contemporary “melting pot” of Miami, a sprawling canvas “full of hard cases who just won’t melt.” Michael Chabon keeps it close to home with “Telegraph Avenue,”
named for the famous stretch of his longtime residence, Berkeley, Calif. Zadie Smith’s “NW” is another local story, set in northwest London, where the author grew up. Salman Rushdie’s “Joseph Anton” is a memoir that for its title uses Rushdie’s alias when he was in hiding after Iran’s Ayatollah Khomeini called for his death for the alleged blasphemy of “The Satanic Verses.” Chinua Achebe’s “There Was a Country” is a longawaited memoir about the 1960s civil war in his native Nigeria. Short stories will come from Pulitzer Prize winner Junot Diaz and from an acknowledged master of the form, Alice Munro. A handful of works
prove there is no age limit for the writing profession. Critic and anthologist M.H. Abrams, who turned 100 this summer, has a book of essays, “The Fourth Dimension of a Poem.” Herman Wouk, 97, and author of “The Caine Mutiny” and “The Winds of War” has a new and comic novel, “The Lawgiver.” One of the great scholars of early American history, 90-year-old Bernard Bailyn, continues his study of immigration to the colonies with “The Barbarous Years.” Beat poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti, 92, has a new book of verse, “Time of Useful Consciousness,” an expansive personal and social history which honors his beloved San Francisco.
