QUEENSBURY — The Primary election to be held throughout Warren County Tuesday Sept. 14 will have no local candidates vying for votes, although in November, plenty of town races will be on the ballot. Statewide and U.S. Congressional races, however will be presented to voters to choose various party candidates. For the Democrats, voters will be choosing between five candidates for state Attorney General: Richard L. Brodsky, Eric T. Schneiderman, Sean Coffey, Eric R. Dinallo, and Kathleen M. Rice; plus two candidates for U.S. Senator, unexpired term. U.S. Senator Kirsten E. Gillibrand will be running for election to this Senate post, to which she was appointed when Hillary Clinton was named U.S. Secretary of State. Gillibrand is challenged by Gail Goode in this upcoming Primary election. Brodsky is a state Assemblyman from Westchester; Eric T. Schneiderman, 55, is a state Senator

North Warren Central groundskeeper Charlie Joyce picks faded blooms off marigold plants surrounding the flagpole at the school’s entrance to prompt the flowers’ continuous display of color. School officials say the vibrant, lush gardens at the school — a source of pride for the school and community — are primarily due to the hard work, skills and enthusiasm Joyce invests in cultivating and maintaining the plants.

ALBANY — A state Supreme Court judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by the Adirondack Council that aimed to overturn a set of Adirondack snowmobile trail siting and maintenance guidelines adopted recently by the Adirondack Park Agency and the state Department of Environmental Conservation. The Adirondack Council had argued that the guidelines would allow locating snowmobile trails up to two miles from any highway into the heart of state Forest Preserve lands — which would open up virtually all land in the Adirondacks to trail development. The green group contended this new policy was in direct violation of the State Land Master Plan and a subsequent environmental review. The suit also questioned the new standards for grooming, tree cutting, grading, rock removal and other trail maintenance tasks on state lands. The Council had asked the court to nullify the guidelines, describing them as "unlawful, arbitrary,
