Martens is a National Distinguished Principal
Mari Lu Martens is among
61 outstanding elementary
and middle school principals
from across the nation and
abroad who have been named
as 2013 National Distinguished Principals by the
National Association of Elementary School Principals
(NAESP).
Martens is the Sibley East
elementary principal in Arlington and Gaylord.
The National Distinguished
Principals will be honored at
an awards banquet at the
Capital Hilton Hotel in Washington, D.C., on Thursday,
Oct. 25. It will be part of a
two-day program, which for
more than 20 years has been
generously funded by
VALIC. U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan will
provide congratulatory remarks.
Established in 1984, the
program recognizes public
and private school principals
who make superior contributions to their schools and
communities. The distinguished principals are selected by NAESP state affiliates,
including the District of Columbia, and by committees
representing private and overseas schools.
NAESP Executive Director
Gail Connelly commended
the honorees for being exemplars of successful school
leadership.
“Only a principal can move
a school from good to great,
simultaneously championing
children and uplifting the
communities they serve,”
Connelly said. “We congratulate this class of NDPs for
their steadfast dedication to
educating our nation’s children to their fullest potential.”
“VALIC is proud to continue its support as sole sponsor
of the National Distinguished
Principal’s Award Program,”
said Bruce Abrams, President
of VALIC. “This program al-
lows us to recognize the important role of principals on
the education and development of our nation’s children,
our future leaders. On behalf
of VALIC, I congratulate all
61 of this year ’s National
Distinguished Principals and
extend my deepest thanks for
all that they do.”
October is a particularly fitting month to acknowledge
the work of principals, as legislation has been introduced
in both chambers of congress
declaring October 2013 National Principals Month. National Principals Month was
established to recognize and
honor the contributions of
school principals and assistant principals toward the
success of the nation’s students, and encourage awareness of their significance.
Established in 1921, the
National Association of Elementary School Principals
(NAESP) serves elementary
and middle school principals
in the United States, Canada,
and overseas. NAESP leads
in the advocacy and support
for elementary and middlelevel principals and other education leaders in their commitment to all children.

By Kurt Menk
Editor
The Highway 5 Project

The construction crew is
expected to wrap up odds and

The Thirty-Ninth Man
Minnesota author Dale Swanson shared his newly released work of historical fiction, “The Thirty-Ninth
Man” at the Arlington Public Library on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 20. The book is about the Minnesota Dakota War of 1862. The Dakota Sioux uprising resulted in
the largest mass hanging in U.S. history. Thirty-nine
were sentenced and 38 died. One was pardoned at the
last minute by President Abraham Lincoln. The event
was sponsored by the Arlington Public Library
League.
Sibley County resolution combines
the auditor and treasurer positions
By Dave Pedersen
Correspondent
The Sibley County Board
of Commissioners passed a
resolution to consolidate the
offices of Auditor and
Treasurer to take effect Jan.
7, 2019 or earlier depending
on the circumstances.
The action was taken at
the meeting on Tuesday,
Oct. 22 to create a single office of Sibley County Auditor-Treasurer “to promote
efficiency in county government.”
It was suggested the
county wait until the referendum period ends before
the board can pass another
resolution that would set a
public hearing as part of
bringing the issue to the
voters in the 2014 election.
At that point the public can
decide to have the new position elected or appointed.
The public can file a reverse referendum after 90
days and within 30 days of
the second publication notice if it opposes the resolution to consolidate the offices.
Upon no objection, the
county can vote on a resolution on Dec. 23 providing
for the contingency if either
the current auditor or treasurer should vacate their office before terms expire in
2019. The board could then
assign the duties of the person who left to the one remaining.
County Commissioner
Bill Pinske said the idea of
starting this in 2019 is so
the incumbents do not have
to run against each other.
• In other business, the
board approved extending
Aaron Scharpe’s limited
term agreement to work in
the Auditor’s office through
December of 2013.
• The voluntary furlough
policy was extended
through 2014. Andrea
Thielke was hired as fulltime income maintenance
case aid.
• Approved was the Public Health and Human Services contract renewal with
Greater Minnesota Family
Services for the provision of
family based services.
Also approved was the
contract renewal with the
Minnesota Valley Action
Council for the provision of
support and employment
and training Services for
SNAP and MFIP/DWP for
$98,638.
• Tim Becker, Public
Works Director, was granted
authorization to sign a purchase order from Towmaster
Truck Equipment for
$221,220. The funds will
equip the two new trucks recently purchased.
• The county hired B. McNamara Inc. to complete the
2014 gravel crushing for
class 1 and 5 materials.
The Sibley County Commissioners will hold their
next regular meeting at 9
a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 12.

The Sibley East School
Board, during a non-public
meeting on Monday, Oct. 21,
discussed further action regarding Sibley East teacher
and former head coach Doug
Flieth.
The School Board unanimously voted to place Flieth
on unpaid suspension indefinitely under the recommendation of the School District
Attorney Tony Nerud.
Flieth, 39, Gaylord, pleaded guilty to one gross misdemeanor count of interference
with privacy in Sibley County District Court on Oct. 10.
As part of the sentence,
Flieth was ordered to undergo
psychological and psychosexual evaluations.
In addition to the evaluations, Flieth was sentenced to
365 days in the Sibley County Jail with 335 days stayed.
Flieth was placed on probation for two years. The conditions of probation include
that he must serve 30 days in
the Sibley County Jail and report within 30 days, perform
40 hours of sentence to service within an indeterminate
period of time and pay $385
in fines and fees.
Under Nerud’s recommendation, since Flieth will
spend 30 days in the county
jail, he will be physically unable to perform the requirements of his teaching contract
with Sibley East. The School
Board should then consider
changing the Flieth’s status
from paid suspension to unpaid suspension.
After the results of the psychological and psychosexual
evaluations are provided to
the school administration or
Nerud, the School Board will
again review the status of Flieth’s employment with the
district.
“First priority, obviously,
of the district is to act in a
way to ensure the safety of
the students and staff and I
believe that since the court
considered that evaluation a
necessary component of his
probation and rehabilitation,
it is a necessary component
in our determination of his
fitness to return to the district
in any capacity where he
would be interacting with students and or adults,” Nerud
said.
The Minnesota State Board
of Education has been aware
of the sentence and are conducting an independent investigation.
A motion was made by
School Board member Missy
Weber and seconded by
School Board member Anne
Karl to move Flieth to unpaid
suspension. The motion was
approved by a 6-0 vote.
********
Flieth was charged with
one count of interference
with privacy on Tuesday, July
9 for allegedly recording underneath a hair stylist’s dress
with his cell phone in Arlington on Saturday, July 6, according to the Sibley County
Attorney’s Office.
The Sibley East School
Board, during a regular meeting on Monday night, Aug. 5,
adopted a resolution to authorize the district to suspend
Flieth from his teaching contract duties with pay pending
the investigations of the
school district, Sibley County
and Minnesota Department of
Education.
The School Board, during a
regular meeting on Monday
night, Sept. 16, approved a
motion to not renew Flieth’s
coaching contracts as head
girls basketball coach and cohead golf coach.

Accident along Highway 19
A two-vehicle accident reportedly occurred near a
private driveway along Highway 19 at 11:26 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 19, according to the Sibley County Sheriff’s
Department.

In Memory Of Buck Thomes
In early June, family members and friends gathered to
plant a tree in memory of Dan “Buck” Thomes at the
Arlington Sportsmen’s Park. In late September, a
bench was donated by Mike Korth/Midwest

far from the tree. The inscription on the bench reads:
“In loving memory of Daniel “Buck” Thomes. May he
watch over this park forever.” Left to right: Buck’s

Health care services provided in Sibley County could
suffer some ill affects with
the announcing of upcoming
changes that are in the works.
Informational updates were
provided by Vicki Stock,
Public Health and Human
Services Director, at the
board of commissioners
meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 22.
First of all, work is going at
a fever pitch as the county
contends with implementing
the federal affordable health
care system that is experiencing glitches throughout the
country. Health insurance options for people at all income
levels became available Oct.
1, but have not been totally
accessible in some cases.
Stock was in on a conference call with the state Department of Human Services
(DHS) to discuss current
changes and issues that are
being worked out. This includes Minnesota’s health insurance system called MNsure that offers four rate lev-
Interim worker is hired
The Arlington City Council, during its regular meeting on Monday night, Oct. 21, voted 4-0 and approved a
motion to hire Taylor Weber as the interim part-time
maintenance worker for the City of Arlington.
City Council members Jennifer Nuesse, Curt Reetz,
Jason Ruehling and Galen Wills all voted in favor of the
motion.
City Council member James Jaszewski had a prior
commitment and was unable to attend the meeting.
Questions
about Health Care?
MNsure Rates
The good news is that MNsure individual rates are the
lowest in the country across
all levels as shown in a rate
review by the Commerce Department. The Bronze plan is
said to cover 60 percent of
the expected costs for a person, while Silver covers 70,
Gold 80 and Platinum 90 percent.
However, rolling out the
program has hit some bumps
in the road. Stock said that
training continues to be developed for the eligibility
workers who are supposed to
be provided services.
“Some of the functionality
in the system is not working
properly,” said Stock. “One
example is if someone from
the public goes into the system and enters information,
and then they go back in later
to change or finish the application, a duplicate is being
created. There are many

pending cases out there that
we are not able to tell if they
are duplicated or real.”
Electronic verification of
social security and citizenship
numbers is not working. So,
those cases are going into
pending status. Plus, Stock
said there are real cases and
test cases all in one cue, so
the county is not able to tell
the difference.
“We can only see up to 100
cases at a time,” pointed out
Stock about the new computer server designed for the
new program. “So we have
no idea how many cases may
be out there for us. We are receiving calls from the general
public, which are taking quite
a bit of time. The public has
many questions they don’t
understand and we don’t have
a lot of answers at this point
in time.”
Another issue involves four
staff members who are not
able to get into the system.
Stock is working with the
state security to get that figured out. It is not just Sibley
County, but it seems every
county has a certain number
of people who are unable to
access the system.
If Sibley County residents
are eligible for medical assistance, they have a choice to
go with South Country
Health Alliance as an option.
MNsure plans are for the general public, replacing the former MinnesotaCare plans.
Four insurance plans are
available in Sibley County
through MNsure. They are
Blue Cross Blue Shield,
Group Health, Medica of
Wisconsin and Preferred One.
Stock noted that four insurance agencies in the county
have been approved to assist
clients in the enrollment
process. Two are located in
Winthrop, one is in Gaylord
and the other is in Gibbon.
The deadline to join a health
insurance plan is Jan. 1.
“It has been an interesting
month,” said Stock. “Staff is
frustrated, but keeping a good
attitude. It is what it is.”

Elaine Breitkreutz celebrates her 100th birthday
to a dance.
Elaine met her future husband, Le Roy Breitkreutz,
while he was on a trip to buy
horses in North Dakota.
“It was love at first sight,”
said Elaine, who was 21
years old on her wedding day.
After a long distance relationship, the couple got married at the Ebenezer Church,
a country church located
south of Arlington, on Nov.
25, 1934.
“We were so happy that we
finally got it over with because people were anxiously
waiting for us to get married,” Elaine said.
The couple began to live
on a farm homesteaded by
LeRoy’s grandfather and located about four miles southeast of Arlington. The couple
was later blessed with a son,
Douglas, and a daughter,
Donna.
There were always chores
to do on the farm, according
to Elaine. The couple had
Holstein milking cows, two
teams of Morgan horses,
sheep for a while and always
chickens. She remembered
that the couple lost four steers
in the Armistice Day Blizzard
on Nov. 11 and 12, 1940.
In addition to the livestock,
Elaine also tended to a her
garden. The garden was so
big that it could be weeded
with a field cultivator. She
would also share her produce
with friends from town.
“She was always a worker,” said Donna. “After the
farm chores, she would have
four loaves of bread on the
counter, clothes on the line
and be at work at Kruger’s
Dry Goods Store in Arlington
by 8 a.m.”
“That’s the way it had to be
done,” added Elaine, who
worked at Kruger’s for about
five years.
Elaine also loved her seasonal job at the canning company where she worked for
several years.
“She worked on the cutters,” said Donna. “She could
push corn through there faster
than anybody’s business.”
After her kids had graduated from high school, Elaine
also worked as a receptionist
at the Arlington Clinic for
three years.
Aside from her family and
the chores on the farm, Elaine
made clothes for Donna and
enjoyed various hobbies such
as quilting, embroidery and,
of course, dancing and later
square dancing.
She was also very active
and generous in the community.
Elaine was a 4-H leader for
the Hearty Hustlers for many
years. She was also involved
in the Kelso Women Extension Group for several years.
Elaine also served as a Sunday School teacher and later
became the Sunday School
superintendent.
Mueller to retire as Gaylord Police Chief
Gaylord Police Chief Kenn
Mueller recently announced
his plans to retire from law
enforcement, according to an
article in The Gaylord Hub.
Mueller, a resident of rural
Arlington, recently announced his retirement in a
letter to the Gaylord City
Council. His intention is to
have a retirement date before
April 1, 2014.
In the letter, Mueller asked
to be included in the process
to hire his replacement.
Mueller is also willing to
continue as police chief until
the position is filled.
“I have greatly enjoyed
working for the City of Gaylord, said Mueller, who graduated from the Arlington-
Green Isle High School in
1978. “Gaylord is a great
community and I am very
happy to have been a part of
it for the past few years.”
The Gaylord City Council,
at its next meeting, is scheduled to act upon the letter of
retirement and discuss the
process to fill the position.
It was Elaine who came up
with the idea for the Little
Red
Stocking
cancer
fundraiser years ago. Elaine,
a lifetime member of the
United Methodist Church in
Arlington, “was always very
active in her church,” according to Donna. In addition,
Elaine is a member of the
Eastern Star and recently received her 50-year pin.
Over the years, Elaine has
seen the many changes in
technology as well as the
growth of Arlington and the
decline of family farms in the
area.
Elaine, who lost her husband in 1994, lived on the
Breitkreutz family farm until
she was almost 97 years
young. She has been a resident at the Good Samaritan
Society - Arlington since
March of 2010.
Elaine, who has two grandchildren and three greatgrandchildren, credits her
longevity to taking good care
of herself, staying busy and
enjoying life.

Special
Education
Another impact on health
services provided came in
Stock’s update on changes in
the River Bend Education
District based in New Ulm.
The cooperative is between
Sibley, Brown and Watonwan
counties.
Stock reported that after an
audit was done last spring,
Sibley County was told the
way it has been funding River
Bend is no longer acceptable.
There has been a joint process
between River Bend, the
counties and the schools.
River Bend provides educational services to those students who can’t be in the public schools.
“Our plan has also had very
intense mental health services
as part of that program,” said
Stock. “The reason it was
started was as a cost savings
to the county for out of home
placements. At a meeting,
River Bend has indicated to
us that what we call the team
program has been decreasing

over time. The School districts are seeing a shifting
need to serve a larger population of those special education
students.”
As a result of the meeting,
Stock said the counties have
decided to terminate the joint
powers agreement for the
team program. River Bend is
committed to providing the
special education services, including socialization and
mental health. It just will not
be as intense.
“The upside in the long run
is I think this will save the
county money because we
will use more special education dollars,” said Stock.
“This will be a major, major
change. The team and day
treatment programs have been
in existence for 20 years. The
team program provided for
more one on one attention, but
now we will be doing more in
groups.”
Home Care
Month
In other public health news,
Stock said November is Home
Care Month. The county has a
staff of 19 with a combined
98 years of experience working with home health care.

Staff announced some staff
cuts by the South Central
Community Based Initiative
(SCCBI). The 10-county adult
mental health initiative has
three state staff members located in Sibley County, whose
contracts will be terminated
effective July 1, 2015.
“This community partnership as part of DHS has been
a cost savings for Sibley
County because we don’t
have to employ these people,”
said Stock. “We only provide
a desk. Mental health is the
only area where the state
mandates a certain case load
size. Our adult limit is 30
cases at most. Having state
staff in house has helped us
maintain that level.”
Directors in the 10 counties
met with the state commissioner and voiced concerns.
They noted that local staff is
vital to the success of this initiative.
“They are very important to
obtain the quality of service
we have been able to provide
to that population,” said
Stock. “We were told the state
staff located in the counties
was never intended to be a
long term answer, which is
the first I ever heard of that.
Some counties already have
taken staff on as county employees. I have to figure out
what is best for this office,
agency and county.”

Woodrow Wilson was the
U.S. President and the price
of gas was 12 cents a gallon
when Elaine (Alwin) Breitkreutz was born on a farm
about four miles south of
Sleepy Eye on Sept. 30,
1913. She was the sixth of
nine children.
Elaine was 12 years old
when her family moved to

Elaine recalled walking
two miles to school in good
weather and riding in a sleigh
pulled by a team of horses in
the winter months.
She was very smart for her
age and graduated from high
school at the young age of 15.
After graduation from high
school, Elaine remained on
the family farm.
“Dad said I had to help out
at the farm,” said Elaine. “My
Mom was not feeling well.”
Labeled as a worker, Elaine
also helped to raise her three
younger siblings. After a few
years, Elaine was also a caregiver for a nearby farm family.
Aside from her work on the
farm, Elaine loved to dance.

Opinions
Letters to the editor,
opinion columns are
always welcome
Our View: Opinion page is perfect forum
to exchange ideas and find out
what other people are thinking
The opinion page is one of the most read pages in this newspaper. Writing a letter to the editor or an opinion column is the
perfect forum for people to express a stance, exchange ideas
and find out what other people are thinking about on specific issues.
Letters to the editor and opinion pieces may not change anyone’s mind, but it might at least make people think and realize
that there is more than one way to look at an issue. It also starts
or continues the discussion and dialogue on timely and important issues that affect people in the communities, school district,
county and beyond.
It may be difficult for some people to express their ideas and
opinions, especially on sensitive topics, in a newspaper of a
small community where everyone seems to know everyone.
Some people may also believe that others who write a letter to
the editor or an opinion piece and take a stand on these types of
issues are negative individuals. That is hardly the case at all.
These individuals have the right to exercise their freedom of
speech and, more importantly, the courage to submit their letter
or column for publication. In a lot of cases, people who write
letters to the editor or opinion columns often times share the
same opinion or ideas of readers who are reluctant to have their
views in print.
Finally, individuals who write a letter to the editor or an opinion column are hardly the final voices of authority on a particular topic and readers will surely not agree with them on every
issue. When that happens, this newspaper hopes readers will exercise their right and write a letter to the editor or an opinion
column for publication.
Letters to the editor and opinion columns are always welcome.

The strong young man at the construction site was bragging that he
could outdo anyone in a feat of
strength. He made a special case of
making fun of one of the older workers. After several minutes, the older
worker had had enough.
“Why don’t you put your money
where your mouth is,” the older
worker said. “I will bet a week’s
wages that I can haul something in a
wheelbarrow over to that outbuilding that you won’t be able to wheel
back.”
“You’re on, old man,” the braggart
replied. “Let’s see what you got.”
The old man reached out and
grabbed the wheelbarrow by the
handles. Then, nodding to the
young man, he said, “All right, get
in.”

A bus carrying only ugly people
crashes into an oncoming truck, and
everyone inside dies.
They then get to meet their Maker
and because of the grief they have
experienced, He decides to grant
them one wish each, before they
enter paradise.
They’re all lined up, and God asks
the first one what the wish is. “I
want to be gorgeous,” replies the
first man. God snaps His fingers,
and it is done.
The second one in line hears this
and says, “I want to be gorgeous
too.” Another snap of His fingers
and the wish is granted.
This goes on for a while with each
one asking to be gorgeous, but when
God is halfway down the line the
last guy in the line starts laughing.
When there are only 10 people
left, this guy is rolling on the floor,
laughing his head off.
Finally, God reaches this last guy
and asks him what his wish will be.
The guy eventually calms down and
says, “Make ‘em all ugly again.”

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson
went on a camping trip. After a good
meal and a bottle of wine, they laid
down for the night, and went to
sleep. Some hours later, Holmes
awoke and nudged his faithful friend
awake. “Watson, look up at the sky
and tell me what you see.”
Watson replied, “I see millions
and millions of stars.”
“What does that tell you?” Holmes
questioned.
Watson pondered for a minute.
“Astronomically, it tells me that
there are millions of galaxies and
potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in
Leo. Horologically, I deduce that
the time is approximately a quarter
past three. Theologically, I can see
that God is all powerful and that we
are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have
a beautiful day tomorrow. What does
it tell you?”
Holmes was silent for a minute,
then spoke. “Watson, you idiot.
Someone has stolen our tent.”

Making sense of the shutdown strategy
By Lee S. Wishing
From the moment I clicked on CSPAN to watch Sen. Ted Cruz’s
quasi-filibuster, I’ve been trying to
make sense of the defund Obamacare/government shutdown effort. It didn’t take a rocket scientist,
or a political scientist, to know it
wouldn’t work. But it might just be
the first of many skirmishes that will
save the country. After all, conservatives have two powerful allies on
their side.
When Sen. Cruz began his 21hour talking marathon, I immediately wondered how he thought it possible that the U.S. Senate, controlled
by Democrats, would give up on
Obamacare and why he thought
President Obama would give up on
his signature accomplishment, national healthcare – a progressive
dream for a century. I share the sentiment of investor Stanley Druckenmiller, who told the Wall Street
Journal, “I thought tying Obamacare
to the debt ceiling was nutty.”
The idea was quarterbacked by
former Cruz colleague, Jim DeMint,
who surprisingly resigned from the
U.S. Senate last December to run
the Heritage Foundation and link up
with its political arm, Heritage Action for America.
While Congress vacationed last
summer, DeMint and Cruz fertilized
the grassroots by participating in
Heritage Action’s nine-city Defund
Obamacare tour. Energized by large
crowds, Cruz was ready to make his
charge against the economy-killing
healthcare program when Congress
went back to work in the fall.
But Cruz and his intrepid Republican platoon couldn’t overcome
simple math: two is greater than
one. A firm (Democrat) White
House aligned with an unyielding
(Democrat) Senate beats the (Republican) House of Representatives.
After a few weeks of fighting, the

insurgency went down in flames.
Or did it? Well, yes it did but it
will kindle future fires of rebellion.
Something new and big and powerful is going on in the political world.
Conservative think-tank leaders
around the country aren’t content
just to create intellectual ideas to
promote the principles of freedom
any longer. They’re getting into the
fight to make sure their ideas win in
the political arena.
They’ve lost their patience because our $17-trillion federal deficit,
our $200 trillion of unfunded federal
liabilities, and our out-of-control
Federal Reserve money printing machine could send our country into
the economic abyss at any moment.
These figures don’t even count our
massive state and local government
liabilities. So, yes, our country is in
big trouble and we need leadership
to save it.
From an economic perspective,
rather than a political perspective,
linking the Defund Obamacare effort to a deal to fund the federal
government wasn’t nutty; it made a
lot of sense for the long run because
Obamacare will create massive economic pain.
Sadly, politics and elections are
more important to politicians than
the state of the American economy.
Their aim is to get re-elected. And
DeMint, Heritage Action, FreedomWorks and the dozens of other think
tanks-turned-political-machines
know it. This is certain – the politicians who vote recklessly will be
dealing with DeMint and Matt
Kibbe of FreedomWorks and others
in a thousand skirmishes in their
backyards where they can’t run for
cover under the Capitol dome.
DeMint, Heritage Action, Cruz
and the Republican Party are bruised
for now. But, they’ll be back to battle again. They’re learning how to
fight this adversary, which includes
big spenders in both parties.
Heritage Action President
Michael Needham, the 31 year-old
brainchild of Defund Obamacare,
told the Wall Street Journal, “There
is nothing in my mission statement
that says anything about the Republican Party. Our mission is to advance the conservative agenda. We
are nonpartisan and we really mean
it.”
I anticipate that the older DeMint
and young Needham will devise
winning Fabian strategies, match
their strengths against the opposition’s weaknesses, pester them in
politically vulnerable districts, raise
lots of money, improve their messaging, and link up with state-based
think tanks with political arms.
Finally and importantly, DeMint
and the gang have two powerful allies on their side – economic truth
and economic reality.
Status quo Washington violates
the laws of sound economics and is
destroying the United States of
America as we’ve known it. Inevitably, the economy will continue
to decline and Obamacare will accelerate the downward spiral. As a
result, voters will increasingly look
for leadership with answers that reflect economic truth and reality.
The electorate will remember Ted
Cruz’s filibuster. For now, the battling conservatives may look bruised
and ugly, but they’ll keep fighting
and they’ll make incremental
progress until they get chances to
win big victories. Don’t count them
out. They’re learning to fight big
spenders on both sides of the aisle
and economic truth and reality are
on their side.

Obituary
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month
It is estimated that intimate
partner violence costs $4.1
billion per year for direct
medical and health care services, plus an additional $1.8
billion for productivity losses.
One in four women have
been victims of severe physical violence by an intimate
partner while one in seven
men were so victimized. One
in six women and one in 19
men have been stalked during
their life.
The National Survey on
Children’s Exposure to Violence, conducted January to
May of 2008, found that one
in nine children were exposed
to some form of family violence in the past year.
In a single day in 2007,
25,321 adults and children
found refuge in a domestic
violence emergency shelter or
transitional housing facility.
They are refugees in their
own country.
In 2011, the District Courts
in Minnesota handled 27,288
domestic violence cases. Of
these, 2,853 were felony level
criminal charges of domestic
assault, 2,863 were gross
misdemeanor charges and
10,607 were misdemeanor
level offenses. In addition,
10,965 petitions for Domestic
Abuse Order for Protection
were filed in Minnesota.
Domestic violence does not
occur only in large metropoli-
tan centers. One of the key
aspects of the power and control an abuser has over the
victim is to isolate the victim
from family and community.
This is often simple to accomplish in rural areas where
there is limited public transportation.
Over the past five years in
Sibley County, there have
been over 200 criminal cases
involving domestic abuse –
assaults or violations of Orders for Protection. Of these,
about 50 were a felony level
offense, where the offender
could have been sent to
prison, for the seriousness of
the offense or the number of
previous cases against the defendant.
In addition, 138 petitions
for domestic abuse Orders for
Protection have been filed in
the past five years in our
county.
The recent death of running
back Adrian Peterson’s son is
only the latest and most visible tragedy that has resulted
from the scourge of domestic
violence. There are several
groups in Sibley County who
are working to reduce the violence in our community.
Next week, we will describe
the work these groups do and
announce a kickoff event for
a new project – the MENding
Program – at the courthouse
in Gaylord at 4 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 7.

The Minnesota Department
of Conservation tells how to
cook a pheasant when you are
lucky enough to get one: “First,
get your pheasant - be sure you
have your license and don’t take
more than your limit. Remember, keep your gun cased when
you’re in the car and don’t
under any circumstances shoot
from your car. Ask a farmer’s
permission to hunt on his land.
Don’t attempt to bring your
friend’s birds back with you unless he accompanies you and
don’t ship or take game outside
the state when taken on a resident licence. Pick your pheasant, don’t skin it. The fat and
flavor lie under the skin. Disjoint the bird and dredge it in
flour. Brown it in deep fat; cover
it with cream; turn fire to low
and cook slowly until the meat
almost falls off the bones. Eat
with a clear conscience.”

Observed each year in October, Domestic Violence
Awareness Month (DVAM)
grew out of a single day, the
“Day of Unity” in October
1981 organized by the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence to connect
groups that worked to end violence against women and
children. The first observance
of Domestic Violence Awareness Month took place in October 1987, and two years
later in 1989, Congress
passed a law designating October as National Domestic
Violence Awareness Month.
Even 24 years later, domestic violence continues to
plague our society. Every
nine seconds in the United
States, a woman is assaulted
or beaten. Domestic violence
is the leading cause of injury
to women – more than car accidents, muggings and rapes
combined. And every day,
more than three women are
murdered by their husbands
or boyfriends in the United
States.
Since 2002 in Minnesota,
at least 197 women died from
domestic violence. 89 children died from child abuse.
Financial costs of domestic
abuse are staggering. Domestic abuse victims lose
nearly 8 million days of paid
work per year – the equivalent of 32,000 full time jobs.

SE falls to Mayer Lutheran 34-17
By Kurt Menk
Editor
The Sibley East varsity
football team concluded its
regular season with a 34-17
loss to Mayer Lutheran in
Minnesota River Conference
action on Wednesday night,
Oct. 16.
The Wolverines, who fell
behind 14-0, eventually rallied for a 17-14 lead, but later
lost by 17 points.
The Crusaders, on their
first possession in the opening quarter, drove 60 yards
before senior quarterback
Cole Buttenhoff tossed a 10yard touchdown pass to junior Taylor Otterstatter. Senior
Chad Anenson followed with
the extra point kick as Mayer
Lutheran jumped out to a 7-0
lead with 8:40 left in the first
quarter.
Mayer Lutheran, on its next
possession, marched down
the field and scored on a 27yard pass from Buttenhoff to
senior Joel Burfeind. Anenson again coverted the extra
point kick as the Crusaders
increased their lead to 14-0
with 3:33 remaining in the
opening quarter.
The Wolverines, two possessions later, countered with
a 58-yard drive capped off by
a 12-yard touchdown run by
senior running back Erik
Danielson.
Senior Francisco Guzman
booted the extra point kick as
Sibley East drew within 14-7
with 5:55 left in the second
quarter.
Sibley East, on the ensuing
kickoff, recovered a pooch
kick on the Mayer Lutheran
43-yard line.
The drive eventually stalled
inside the 10-yard line, but
Guzman kicked a 25-yard
field goal as the Wolverines
drew within 14-10 with 3:34
left in the second quarter.
An interception by Sibley
East senior linebacker Ben
White stopped a Crusader
drive deep in Wolverine territory late in the second quarter.
Sibley East, at its own 25yard line, scored a few plays
later when Danielson raced
60 yards for a touchdown.
The extra point kick by
Guzman was no good as the
Wolverines had to settle for a
17-14 lead with 1:50 left in
the second frame.
Sibley East had another
drive late in the first half, but
time expired as the Wolverines took a 17-14 advantage
into halftime.
The Wolverines, on their
first possession in the third
quarter, drove down to the
Mayer Lutheran 17-yard line,
but a run on a fourth-andthree play came up short.
It was all Mayer Lutheran
after that point.
The Crusaders marched 43
yards before Buttenhoff
hooked up with Burfeind on a
40-yard touchdown pass.
Anenson followed with the
extra point kick as Mayer
Lutheran regained the lead at
21-17 late in the third quarter.
Mayer Lutheran, on the ensuing kickoff, executed a successful onsides kick and recovered the ball on the Sibley
East 40-yard line.
Burfeind, a few plays later,
found the end zone on a 23yard run. The Wolverines
blocked the extra point kick,
but not before the Crusaders
opened its lead to 27-17 with
11:48 left in the fourth quarter.
The Wolverines could not
mount a serious drive after
that point and even came up a
pick-six interception to Anenson late in the game. Anenson
also booted the extra point
kick as the Crusaders cruised
to a 34-17 lead and eventual
win.
The Wolverine offense
compiled a total of 335 yards
in the loss.
Danielson sparked the
ground game with 19 carries
for 198 yards and two touchdowns. The effort put Danielson over 1,000 yards for the
second consecutive season.
Danielson and Sibley East
graduate Logan Reid are the
only two Sibley East running
backs to rush for more than
1,000 yards in consecutive
seasons, according to Sibley
East head coach Chuck Hartman.
Senior running back Alex
Pedraza had 16 rushes for 62
yards while senior Brody
Rodning added two attempts
for 33 yards.
The Wolverine defense,
meanwhile, created two
turnovers, but gave up some
big plays.
White led the defense with
nine solo tackles, six assisted
tackles, one tackle for a loss,
one quarterback sack, one
forced fumble and one interception. Senior Cordell Bates
contributed two solo tackles,
four assisted tackles and one
quarterback sack while junior
Ben Frietag had one solo
tackle, two assisted tackles
and one tackle for a loss.
Guzman, senior Austin Sadler
and sophomore Travis
Schmidt collected three solo
tackles apiece while senior
Darian Schulte and Colton
Bates added five and four assisted tackles respectively.
“It was a tough loss, but
there are lessons to be learned
and applied in the playoffs
and in the careers for many of
our young inexperienced
starters,” said Hartman.
“Football has a long learning
curve if you want to be really
good. There are so many
moving parts, it is like no
other game.
The Wolverines conclude
the season with a 2-5 mark in
the MRC and a 3-5 record
overall.

Fall Harvest
The cool and wet weather has slowed
down Minnesota’s corn and soybean
harvests in the past week. Ninety-five
percent of Minnesota’s corn crop is mature which is slightly behind the fiveyear average of 96 percent, according
to the United States Department of
Agriculture. Ninety-seven percent of
the soybean crop is mature. The corn
harvest is only 19 percent complete
which is well behind the normal 49 percent. The soybean harvest is 80 percent complete which is slightly behind
the normal 83 percent.
DNR urges area hunters to review
trespass law, ask landowners first
With Minnesota’s small
game, waterfowl, and archery
deer seasons underway, and
the firearm deer season set to
begin Nov. 9, conservation
officers with the Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources (DNR) remind
hunters that there is one sure
way to avoid landowner concerns associated with trespassing: “Always Ask First.”
“Trespass is the biggest
problem landowners have
with hunters,” said Col. Ken
Soring, DNR enforcement director. “It is critical for
hunters to have good relationships with landowners, especially when you consider that
in some parts of the state
such as southwestern Min-
nesota about 95 percent of the
land is privately owned.”
“If hunters and other outdoor recreationists would just
make it a standard practice to
always ask for permission before entering any private
land, those relationships
would improve a lot.”
Soring encourages all
hunters and landowners to
obtain a copy of the 2013
Hunting and Trapping booklet and review the trespass information beginning on page
6. “I can’t stress enough how
important it is to be very familiar with the trespass law.”
Trespass penalties range
from a $50 civil fine to a
criminal penalty of several
thousand dollars, confiscation
of vehicles and hunting
equipment, and revocation of
hunting privileges for 2 years.
Unlike urban law enforcement agencies, conservation
officer response times to trespass calls may be longer, especially during the firearms
deer season.
Callers are urged to contact
the Turn In Poachers (TIP)
hotline at 800-652-9093 to
report any alleged wildlife violation, including hunter trespass. Cell phone users can
dial #TIP.
Information must include
precise time and location,
along with a full description
including a license plate
number of any vehicle believed to be involved.
Four anglers net nearly $3,000 in fines
Four men recently pled
guilty and paid fines of about
$740 each following an investigation of sunfish overlimits by conservation officers with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
State conservation officers
Jayson Hansen of Big Fork
and Don Bozovsky of Hibbing checked the men and
their wives while on patrol of
Deer Lake near Effie.
Searching freezers at various locations during the in-
vestigation, the officers found
bags of mostly frozen sunfish
from Deer, Pickerel, Battle,
Larson, and Poplar lakes.
Deer, Pickerel, and Battle
lakes have a 10 sunfish per
person daily limit. The daily
sunfish limit on most Minnesota lakes is 20 per person.
The sunfish were seized
and counted and the men
were charged with 84 sunfish
over the legal limit. Among
the sunfish were 18 black
crappie, 11 northern pike and
nine bass.
Fire deaths have decreased in
Minnesota over last 40 years
Fire deaths have gone
down in Minnesota over
the past 40 years — even
as the population and
number of recorded fires
each year is going up.
According to a new report from the state Fire
Marshal’s office, 50 people died from fires in Minnesota in 2012. That is
down from 56 in 2011.
There were 16,581 reported fires in 2012, a 12 per-
cent increase over the year
before. Three people died
in fires where there were
working smoke alarms
and 10 died from careless
smoking. The report
shows cooking continued
to be the number-one
cause of structure fires in
2012.
No Minnesota firefighters died in the line-of-duty
last year.
