A Hot Springs attorney has
filed a suit against Hot
Spring County Sheriff Chad
Lebetter on behalf of three
citizens.
in a press release, Attorney
Andi davis stated that she
has filed a suit against
Lebetter, who is seeking reelection to a third term as
sheriff. the filing, which
was made in Hot Spring
County Circuit Court yesterday, is on behalf of raymond
Yerby, darrin Hardy and
Charles dollar as “representatives of all similarly situated taxpayers” of the county.
davis stated that the suit is
being initiated for the “purpose of securing an objective
judicial review and ruling.”
the filing comes on the heels
of a Legislative Joint
Auditing Committee report
that found Ledbetter’s office
to be in noncompliance with
“Whatever you do
in word or deed, do
all in the name of
the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks
through Him to
God the Father.”

local bank. the loan of

marijuana, a pipe and a
lighter, Harper said. He was
taken to the principal's

the principal and the athletic
director,

allegedly

Could the third time be the
charm for the former Pike
County Memorial Hospital?
the Pike County Quorum
Court met in special session
Monday evening to hear a
proposal from a third company that is looking at taking
over the former countyowned hospital that has been
shuttered since late 2010.
the court had previously
sold it to the Hicks Group,
which closed it amid money
woes. in 2011, the county
entered into a contract with
Ị ew directions Healthcare,
which was never able to
open the facility and is currently asking the county to
let them out of the contract
and pay them for the time
they maintained the building.
Karen Voan of Glenwood,
the daughter of Pike County
Judge don Baker, told the
court that her employer, Kare
Partners of Gastonia, Ị C, is
interested in reopening the
facility if a deal can be
reached before the license
expires on May 11. once the

reopened.
Voan, passing out information on the company, stated
the healthcare investment
firm was started in 2004 and
two years later, branched out
into the medical services
field. the company has a
$30 million projected revenue for 2012, she noted.
the company owns clinics,
hospitals, nursing homes and
other
healthcare-related
companies all over the
United States and just purchased a hospital in india
and are in the process of buying several clinics in that
nation, she said.
Ị oting that the company
has promised to conduct any
of its local business in a
“transparent” manner, Voan
said that Kare Partners
became interested in the
Murfreesboro property as a
potential investment after
Voan mentioned it to them.

at the mansion... Suit filed against sheriff
Joe May
We don’t figure we’ll ever
be asked to give any commencement addresses in our
lifetime, so we decided we’d
just give our little speech to
the Class of 2012 right here.
After all, we figure we’ve got
more readers than can be packed
into most our locally gyms anyhow. or at least that’s our fantasy and we’d like to keep it
that way.
Seniors, i’ll make this brief.
that’s not words most folks
are used to hearing from me,
whether in this space or in
the pulpit, but there’s not a lot i
can offer to our graduates.
Like we were told 20 years
ago, it’s a tough world
you’re going out into--that
is, if you’re honorable
enough to actually work. it’s
an easy world, though, if you
want to just be a carefree
bum at the taxpayers’’
expense. (And you’d be
required to vote democrat as
well.) But we trust you’re
smarter than that.
We hope and trust you can
speak a foreign language.
doubtless you’ll need it for
when America falls and you
are forced to flee or stay and
live under the new government. doom and gloom?
Yeah, but that’s how it is
these days. What can we
say? it’s an obamanation.
But you ask, “What happened
to the brave new world we were
supposed to inherit?”
Well, it’s like that “hope and
change” stuff that left us
without hope and counting
our pocket change. it’s a
new world, all right. Hope
you speak Chinese.

Madly in love...
the newly-formed love
firm of dewey decker and
Emily Stickles (she of the
incredible cheekbones and
watchful county eye) began
yet another sensation here in
the valley.
Ever since dewey told
Emily he was actually in the
manure business and not just
enamored of the stuff itself,
and ever since Emily admitted to dewey that she liked
him as a man and not as a
subject for a doctoral dissertation on rural nutty people,
there has been a difference in
the community. the sun
seems to shine a little more
golden on us all, the cattle in
the pastures seem cleaner
and happier, the kids seem to
catch more fish down in
Lewis Creek, and the Farmer
Brothers coffee at the Mule
Barn truck stop has a certain
Starbuckian finish to it.
dewey and Emily are in
love and we’re in love with
the whole idea.
Marvin Pincus, he of the
Fly tying Love Center,
immediately took credit for
yet another happy romance
when he learned that the
stonefly nymph on a number
six that he’d tied for dewey
to help his love life actually
pinned the two together after
one of dewey’s “accidents.”
Marvin’s only fear was his
Home country

Down Home Columnist
fly tying might become so
popular and effective that
there would be no more lonely people left and he’d have
to go back to tying flies just
to catch fish.
the guys at the Mule Barn
raised their cups in a porcelain salute as the newly-inlove couple drove past in
dewey’s pickup. dewey and
Emily grinned and waved
back. We noticed dewey’s
sign,
Environmental
Enrichment Services, was
proudly back on the truck’s
doors again.
“do you suppose,” doc
asked us, “dewey will get
Emily her own shovel for her
birthday?”
We nodded. “that’d be ol’
dewey all right,” said Steve.
in the truck, dewey was
one of those two-headed drivers because Miss Emily had
laid her head on his shoulder
as he drove.
“Honey?” said Emily. “do
you realize the two of us are
driving around the valley
aimlessly in a manure
truck?”
“Yes.”
“And i think it’s great,
dewey.”
The honor scholars
i went thursday to the
Gurdon High School honors
program. As always, i was
very happy for the children
who received some recognition.
in life, most of us are not
so ego-oriented that we
would admit it is nice to be
recognized, but we sure do
love the recognition... i love
to see them smile. i have
tried my best to be a media
public servant since 1980.
that is a few full moons
back for those of you who
might have noticed that
Sunday, May 6 was supposed to be our May moon
this year.
As i get older, it comes
to my attention what is
important in life. one of the
most important things is to
encourage others to become
all they can become in whatever profession they are
called to do. in some cases,
they are called to be good
fathers who work hard at a
factory and show up at their
children's ball games to
encourage them.
others are called to be
farmers, and need to teach
their children the love of the
land; how to hunt, how to
fish, how to enjoy the woods
or how to enjoy planting and
harvesting a crop in the field.
i know a little bit about this
one, having been raised by a
farm couple.
Mother's day is coming up.
i tend to think of it as already
gone because i wrote a big article about it for my magazine that
is already on the web. But i
did not mention my adopted
mother, Grandma Marvel
Ị elson. Grandma was there
in the trenches for this man.
She showed me how to cook
an egg, how to make a bed,
encouraged me when i
mowed the yard right and
gave me tutoring when i
needed a good mind with
patience to help me with a
class. She was called to be a

What i am trying to say
is whether it is a laborer, a
farmer, a writer, a doctor, or
even a lawyer, like Perry
Mason or Ben Matlock portray on old folks television,
people need to be encouraged to be what they are. if
you are dreaming and focusing on being a rocket scientist and your grades are
below average, you might
want to re-evaluate. But if
you are struggling to make a
telephone bill instead of
writing that book you know
you would love to do, hang
in there and maybe the
finances will straighten out
so you can have the time to
make your vision, using your
talents, come true. i tell children to shoot for their
dreams, not the dreams of
someone else.
Ị ow if i were dreaming
of inventing a time machine
so i could go back to 1934
and find out if my grandfather, John Hans Ị elson, really was the body-double for
legendary bank robber John
dillinger, then you could
justifiably tell me my
dream might need reevaluating. My point,
keep your dreams real
and your whims separated
from your reality.
i am married to one of
the sweetest girls i ever
knew. At one time, i had a
whim that John would
need at least a dozen wives
to take care of all of his kingly needs. Yeah right, boy am
i glad i did not try to achieve
that whim!
But then again, i had a
whim that i would have a
publication that would last
decades and develop into
something useful to future
generations. i may be
achieving that one through
the online world... time
will tell.

a fantasy on the first anniversary of
Mom’s death
“Come in here, Mom,” i
said, as she swept into the
house where she’d lived for
64 years. She glided to a
stop. Looking around the living room, her lips thinned,
eyes clouded, brow furrowed. Upturned palms
panned this area of the family home––now mine. i half
expected her to say, as she
had during the last days,
‘What are you doing here?’
i pushed a swivel chair
under her so she could view
the entire room. “We sold
your sofa. Ị one of your heirs
needed it. this one’s mine,
remember?”
Mom cast one arm toward
her piano that was still where
she left it. Mine stood beside
it. “Carolyn doesn’t have
room for it in her house.”
Slowly, she surveyed the
rest of the room, shaking her
head.
“Ị o one needed the cabinet
stereo, so i gave it to my
friend dot. Your hospice
nurse wanted the macramé
plant hanger from that corner. doesn’t your pink
recliner look good there?”
Mom lifted her hand toward
the sunroom-cum-office. She
held my arm, rose from the
chair and moved toward the
bright area. At the double
doorframe, i turned a rocking chair around and eased
her down. She shivered; i
shawled her shoulders with
one of her throws.
She studied the room.

Ị othing stood where it previously did. the only familiar piece was Granddad
Ị oah’s handmade library
table.
She spotted her African
violets. For years, the
stunted
blue-flowered
plants merely existed in
plastic yellow pots set on
spiraling ledges of a
wrought-iron stand. i’d
repotted them into ceramic containers and sunk
two more into blue pottery jardinières.
With regular watering
and plant food, the violets
had thrived; the blooms
were
profuse.
Mom
motioned to one and held
out her hands. i took it
down and let her hold it
on her lap. For the first
time, she smiled.
We continued the slow
journey through the house.
in the dining room, she finally relaxed. Her massive
china cabinet still stood in its
place. She didn’t seem to
notice that the oak buffet was
on another wall, and that MY
china hutch was in that
space. As if she had just
come in with the newspaper,
she sat down at the table—as
cluttered now as it was then,
albeit with different items—

After lunch, where we

and before viewing other
changes, Mom agreed to a
nap.

still warmed. A flea-market
picture frame held a picture
of her and HEr mother. She
seemed pleased.
After she lay down, i placed
a pillow under her knees,
then added blankets until she

Two parties are
needed
When Congressman ron Paul (rtX) spoke at Mississippi State
University last year, he drew an
overflowing auditorium of enthusiastic students on a night filled with
thunderstorms and bad weather. As
a college lecturer familiar with students’ attendance habits, i had
anticipated a much smaller crowd.
Many of his lines drew wild
applause and even standing ovations. He stated plainly there’s only
one political party in Washington.
He’s right. that’s why tEA Party
victories in the 2010 elections so
mesmerized political pundits and
confounded progressive ideologues. “Everybody knows we
need representatives in Washington
who know how to compromise!”
doesn’t “everybody” know that?
Ị ot hardly. that’s been the problem for way too long. republicans
and democrats have worked
together to create this economic
mess we’re in. President obama
and other progressives continue to
paint conservatives as extremists
and fanatical ideologues, and our
economic woes as “Bush’s fault.”
First of all, that’s giving George W.
way too much credit or blame as
the case may be.
Secondly, what’s so extreme or
fanatical about wanting a balanced
budget, accountability from those
in power, a constitutionally limited
federal government, and a fair tax
system?
As far as i can tell President
obama has never told his audiences the top 1-percent of federal
taxpayers already pay around 27.5percent of all federal income tax
revenue, or the top 10-percent pay
nearly 60-percent of all income tax
revenue. Sounds more than fair to
me especially since i’m not even
close to those tax brackets!
Who among us really wants to
make our children and grandchildren pay what’s due today? if you
are receiving more money from the
government than you’re paying
back, you are bankrupting your
own descendants as well as the next
generation of Americans.
Contrary to what progressive
politicians have promised, the government does not have a magic pot
of money. Future taxpayers will
have to pay for the money we’re
overspending today. Will you vote
for politicians who promise to give
you money our grandchildren will
have to pay back with interest? do
you want your grandchildren to pay
off your credit card balances too?
Same thing.
only those of us working or
receiving earned retirement income
are paying taxes, and fewer of us
are working than were working 30
years ago. We don’t need the government giving more money to
those who are not working. We
need more people working. We
need leaders in Washington who
understand we need more workers
and fewer people receiving government money while not working.
As Congressman Paul said, there
is only one political party in
Washington, and that has to change
if we are going to save the next few
generations of Americans from
having to pay for our dues. rather
than voting for one party or the
other, vote for representatives
who will stop spending trilliondollar deficits and who will
truly help small business owners and entrepreneurs create
new jobs.
We need more workers and
jobs, which will raise tax revenue; we need to cut the size of
government to spend less; and
we need leaders who will give
us more than campaign speeches and bumper sticker slogans.
Americans have seen way
more than our fair share of
campaign speeches the past
four years. We need someone
to lead us all out of this mess.

The magic triangle
triangles have a unique
place
in
our
world.
Engineers use them to build
bridges, romance writers use
them to manufacture chaos,
Pythagoras used it to create
his theorem, and the shortstop uses it to make a double
play! triangles strengthen
structures. they take three
straight lines going nowhere
and form a bond that can
withstand great pressure.
i see this cohesive combination in another triangle:
women-horse-child. it is
particularly evident when the
child has down’s syndrome,
Multiple Sclerosis or any
disability
which
other
restricts their possibilities.
in many equine therapeutic
riding programs that i’ve visited, women are the predominant hands-on helpers in the
arena. to be successful, a
mutual trust must be established. it is no secret that
most young kids are more at
ease with a mother figure.
Children innately sense the
mother’s compassion from
her voice, her touch and her
protective stance.
A woman introduces the
child to the horse. this
allows the child to give the
horse the benefit of the
doubt, because the woman
trusts the horse and the child
trusts the woman. When the
child is set up on the horse’s
back, it is still in the mother’s arms, ready to be rescued if need be. through a
long progression of walks
around the arena the child’s
faith increases in the horse.
the physical mother-child
contact begins to loosen. it
proceeds from holding one
hand, to a hand on the back,
to a hand on the saddle, to
walking beside leading, and
then one day, cheering from
the sidelines.
the child’s trust eventually
expands to include the horse.
the triangle is complete. We
have connected woman-tochild-to-horse and back towoman. this third leg was
there before the child was
born or was even a thought.
Woman-to-horse was always
there. Ị ot in all women, in
all horses, or in all kids, i
admit, but in many. i have

given up trying to understand
the relationship. i have seen
it so often i no longer think it
is haphazard or coincidental.
i have concluded it involves
some primitive instinctual
behavior.
it is especially obvious at
any equine therapeutic riding
center. Check it out for yourself. You will see small
islands of woman-horsechild. Concentrate on one of
those triangles. try and
drown out the chatter, the
buckets, and the racket going
on around you. then imagine the child on the horse is
yours. You become hypersensitive to the slightest
movement; be it protective,
encouraging, or loving.
Even the smallest step in
this magic triangle performance going on in the arena
becomes
magnified.
Successes are marked in the
tiniest gesture, the slightest
touch, the tentative smile and
the skip of a heartbeat. And
through the cloud that puts
you in the triangle, you hear
the softest of voices saying,
“it’s all right, he won’t hurt
you.”

Admission to the event is
free, but parking is $10,
thomason stated, suggesting
that due to the likely volume
of event-goers, carpooling
would be advisable.
Ị atalie Swan, who is coordinating the event, explained
that Warrior dash is a 5K
course that is lined with 14
different obstacles.
runners will be released
every half-hour in waves of
500, she said. there is no set
time to finish the course, she
said, adding that the races
will be held from 9am-3pm.
“Some will complete it in
thirty minutes and others
may take two hours,” she
said.
Warrior dash is a national
competitive event that has
been in existence since 2009,
Swan said, noting that this is
the first event to be held in
Arkansas. Sixty-five events
are held around the US each
year, she stated. the event is
owned and managed by red
Frog Events.
in addition to the races,
Swan said bands will be
playing and a live dJ will be
on hand during the day.
Various food vendors will be
set up and Warrior dashrelated gear and other items
can be purchased, she said.
Spectators can cheer their
favorite runner on during the
race, Swan said, adding that
there will be viewing in several areas, including in front
of the mud pit, one of the
obstacles participants must
endure on the local course.
While Swan estimated that
about 8-9,000 people would
show up Saturday in Amity,
thomasson said he feels like
the number will be more like
10-12,000.
thomason noted that
Warrior dash is the first of
such events to be held at
timber Lodge. on June 23,
the lodge will host a weightboarding competition.
thomasson told the newspaper that he is excited about
the event.
“i’m excited,” he said as he
watched workers construct
obstacles along the course.
“i think this is going to be
good for the whole area.”

Current Treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammation of the body’s joints. Although
the exact cause is unknown, it is thought that a trigger causes the immune system to attack the protective layer surrounding the joints. Substances called cytokines are involved in the inflammation process due to
the abnormality of the immune system. Interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-6, and
tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha are inflammatory cytokines involved
in the progression of rheumatoid arthritis. Joint pain, swelling, and stiffness gradually progress over time. Finger, wrist, elbow, knee, and toe
joints are often involved. Joint stiffness upon getting out of bed is
common.
Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), such as methotrexate (Rheumatrex), sulfasalazine (Azulfidine), and leflunomide
(Arava), may be prescribed to slow down the progression of joint damage. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha inhibitors work to decrease inflammation. They include adalimumab (Humira), etanercept (Enbrel), and
golimumab (Simponi). These medications may be prescribed in combination with methotrexate. Abatacept (Orencia) is a drug prescribed for
moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. It blocks the activation of Tcells, and may be prescribed after unsuccessful treatment with methotrexate or TNF-alpha inhibitors.

•We must eat our own words
All of these statements indicate that what we dwell on
— our mental nutrition– is important. What we read,
what we hear, these things affect us, perhaps for an eternity. Beware of a diet of spiritual junk food.
though some reading may be sweet to the taste, it
might also be as insubstantial as Hostess ding dongs
and insufficient to build good, healthy Christian character.
Conversations, too, can be either healthy, or not. Ị egative people may be worse than junk food; they may be toxic.
•So what do you read?
•What kind of television programming do you watch?
•What do you read on the internet?
•is it healthy?
do you listen admiringly to a negative, critical person as
if he is some spiritual guru with all the answers for the
church (they frequently have criticisms; rarely helpful
suggestions)? is yours a spiritual diet of continual criticism of the church, its leaders, and its endeavors to serve God?
Beware. this toxic food will cause more than heartburn;
it may affect your eternal life.
The comfort of presence
By BaRRy NeWToN
FortHriGHt MAGAZiỊ E
rightfully so, we denounce Judas for betraying Jesus. How
could Judas be so callously crass, so profane, so small-minded
as to place a financial value on his allegiance to Jesus?
Judas, however, was not the only one.
during the cool early morning hours in the high priest’s courtyard when it became clear that Jesus was in serious trouble,
Peter was willing to emphatically proclaim, “i know not the
man!”
Why did he do this? Presumably, to safe guard his own skin
and ensure his own comfort.
do we find it easier to denounce Judas’actions than Peter’s? Both men,
at least in one instance, valued something more than their allegiance to
Christ. if we find it a little harder to criticize Peter, perhaps this is because
we too feel the tug of placing value upon how people treat us.
So, what about us? do we value anything more than our allegiance to Christ? if faced with a situation where either we could
preserve a comfortable status quo or we could obey Christ and
stand up for him, would we sell out Jesus?
Jesus made it clear. to be a disciple involves the way of the
cross, that is, to die to self-interests in order to live for him
because we place him above all other competing values in our
lives (Matthew 10:37-39; 16:24-26). Given our fears and
desires to be accepted, this can be a hard message to hear.
Good news! Peter was not cast off because of this one-time failure. Upon hearing that Jesus was risen, Peter joined the remaining ten apostles and traveled to Galilee where Jesus commissioned them to go and make disciples of all nations.
the following chapters of Peter’s life reveals an apostle proclaim Christ even to hostile adversaries. Peter learned to live the
way of the cross. We can too!
Let’s determine that if we have stumbled by valuing something
more than Christ, that we will also be like Peter. We too will
stand back up and press forward to serve our Lord.

found it to be in good shape
for the time that it has been
out of operation.
Voan said the company has
stated it will likely spend $1
million in reopening and
restocking the local hospital.
they plan on staffing the
emergency room and using
15 patient beds and will have
a staff of about 55-60 with a
potential payroll of $900,000
for the first year. the company plans on reopening the
clinics in Glenwood and
Murfreesboro as well, she
added.
Already, the company has
engaged the services of a
physician locating business
to find a doctor to work the
hospital, Voan said.
Baker stated that the hospital's license is currently
owned by Ị ew directions.
the county cannot renew it,
he said.
the judge said he has given
information
on
Ị ew
directions to Kare Partners
and is hopeful that the two
companies can reach a settlement that will give ownership of the license to Kare
Partners and at the same time
absolve the county of any
potential debt that would

have to be worked out in

“Ị othing is going to
happen unless they can
get that license renewed,”
he stated.
Baker noted that he had
received a proposed contract from Kare Partners
that will have to be negotiated.
He suggested

wondered aloud how
the
company
could
p r o f i t a b l y o p e r a t e the
hospital “when two others
couldn't do it.” He also
expressed doubt that a
full-time emergency room
would be beneficial, noting that that segment of
the hospital often loses
money.
Voan stated that the
emergency room would
be a “loss leader” and
noted that it is necessary to
save lives.
“We can stabilize people
there and send them on to
another facility,” she said.
Justice Paul Baker said
he would be in favor of
the proposal “only if it
doesn't cost the county
one dime.”
As the discussion on
how to allow the new
company to take over the
facility continued, Paul
Baker noted that such talk
was useless.
“We're not in a rush
here. First, we need to
see if they can get the
license extended.
We
need to check with our
lawyer and make sure that
the county is not involved
in this in any form or
fashion.”
His father, don Baker
agreed.
“i don't want the hospital on my agenda any
longer than i have to have
it,” he remarked.
the court will revisit the
issue at their regular
meeting in two weeks.
in other business, Jeff
Guerin addressed the
court about the construction of three tennis courts
on the city park property
near the hospital, which is
owned by the county.
A former tennis pro,
Guerin stated that he is in
the process of building a
public access clay surface
court on the former baseball field using crushed
stone as a surface. Aside

Guerin said he plans to

Clark County Christian
Academy were among
the participants in
thursday’s
Ị ational
day of Prayer celebration in Arkadelphia. the
event was held at third
Street Baptist Church.
A prayer For America
righteous God, we submit to your rule the nations of the world. this day we ask and pray
for the protection of our brave men and women who have volunteered for military service,
both here at home and around the world. Lord, give them compassion for even those whom
they confront as enemies. Keep them from hate and wanton destruction or from scorekeeping with human lives. We realize our Father, that for a season our men and women in uniform
must be a people at war, but keep them safe from the hate that hardens into cruelty, the
destruction that hardens into wantonness and an attitude that hardens into a lust for
vengeance. though we recognize that for a season we must be a people of war keep our soldiers, sailors, and airmen, eager for peace and as eager for a cessation of hostilities as they
are for military victory. Give them courage to do their duty, to encourage one another in the
fulfillment of their objectives, but most of all, our Father, never let hard military duty and sacrifice separate them from their loyalty to our Savior, Jesus Christ, who taught us to be peacemakers, to bind our efforts toward bending our swords into plowshares for the peace and dignity of all mankind. Amen

750 South 5th Street in Arkadelphia
Graysonia was one of numerous mill towns that sprang up in
southern Arkansas during the
twentieth century as a result of
Arkansas’s growing timber
industry. At its peak, Graysonia
had one of the largest mills in
the South and a thriving community. today, few visible
remainders of the town exist.
in 1902, William Grayson and
Ị elson McLeod became principal stockholders in Arkadelphia
Lumber Company. the company moved to a site near the
Antoine river in 1907 because
there were not enough resources
in the area to continue at their
former location. the new town
was named Graysonia, in honor
of the company’s president.
the mill at Graysonia became
one of the South’s largest due to
the high lumber demands
brought on by World War i. the
mill especially prospered
between 1915 and 1920. More
than 500 employees worked to
produce 150,000 board feet
each day. this was substantially
more than other mills, such as
the
one
at
Mauldin
(Montgomery County), which
produced 25,000 board feet
each day at top speed.
At its founding, 350 people
lived in the town. Population
more than doubled during the
town’s peak. Graysonia was a
company-owned town but was
different from many other company-owned towns in Arkansas
because it incorporated and
elected its own government
officials. in addition to a large
commissary, the town boasted
luxuries such as a confectionary, a movie theatre, three
hotels, a school, and a church. it
had a water system, as well as
electric services.
in 1924, the Bemis family
bought into the company, and it
was renamed the ozan-Grayson
Lumber Company. the Bemis
family operated other area
mills, and this merger marked
the beginning of five successful
years of lumber production.
Graysonia’s decline was due in
large part to lumber companies’
“cut and move” mentality,
which means that they took timber from the land and moved to
another area with more
resources. However, this was
not the only reason for the
town’s abandonment.
in 1929, the Great depression
swept the country. the mill at
Graysonia held on for a time,
but by 1931, the burden of the
depression and a lack of timber
became too great. the planer
mill lasted for a while by cutting
stored lumber, and management
considered operating several
small mills to continue production. However, the financial situation worsened, and the mill
closed.
Cinnabar, an ore from which
mercury is extracted, was discovered in southwest Arkansas
in 1930. Mill workers were
encouraged to stay in Graysonia
and work for the Arkansas
Quicksilver
Company.
However, cinnabar mining also
began to dwindle, and people
started moving away from the
town. Workers found jobs in
other mills or mines, and the
town became deserted. the
ozan-Grayson directors reported to stockholders that the land
was worthless, not worth the tax
burden to keep it. the Bemises
decided to sell 10,000 acres of
the land to the McMillan family,
traders in timberlands from
Arkadelphia. With the remaining 50,000 acres, they built a
mill in delight in 1937, using
some of the equipment from the
Graysonia mill.
on Ị ovember 19, 1950, the
Graysonia post office closed
down and routed its mail
through Alpine. in that same
year, the U.S. Census listed the
population of Graysonia to be
zero.
This program was made possible in part by a grant from the Department of Arkansas Heritage, funded by your 1/8 cent conservation tax, Amendment 75.

Council rehires fired worker, appoints new councilman
mendation,
Councilmen
dora Lee Bean and robbie
Hancock moved to hire
Smith. the motion carried
unanimously.
the council then took the
mayor's recommendation to
appoint Jason Mitchell to fill
the unexpired term of
Councilman Chris Fagan,
who died last month following an extended illness.
He was then sworn in to the
position by Clark.
Clark then told the council
that tim Hill has approached
the city about the possibility
of either purchasing the old
city landfill, which sits on 17
acres outside the corporate
limits, or the contents of the
property. the mayor noted
that Hill is interested in disinterring the scrap metal
buried on the property and
selling it, something he has
done in other places.
discussion then followed as
to whether the city should
sell the property outright or
allow Hill to harvest the
metal at the suggested rate of
10% for the city.
it was agreed that Clark
would seek more information on the proposal as well
as the city's potential liability
in the event of environmental
issues.
City recorder/treasurer
Heather Bankhead told the
council that beginning with
this month, the city will start
paying the fire department
back for a $9,000 expense
that occurred when that
department added several
firemen to the state fire and
police pension fund and
backdated their times, which
then accrued fines and penalties because the workers had
not been added in a timely
Bankhead
manner.
expressed concern that there
may be other firemen who
have not been added.
“i'm just concerned that
we're going to get another
$1,500 bill,” she said.
Bean expressed the hope
that no further workers
would be added with backdated start times.
Councilman Johnny
McAnally, himself a fireman, explained that the
workers who were added,
“fell through the cracks, but
they had to be added. i'm not
sure why they were not
added earlier.”
McAnally suggested that
Fire Chief BJ Johns should
be requested to attend the
next meeting to explain why
the workers were added late.
Porter stated that he felt the
workers could have been
added in another way that
would not have cost the city
so much money. Bankhead
noted that Johns, upon finding out the penalties,

SUiT
the vehicle in January
2010, it was discovered
the at the county did not
have a clear title to the
vehicle. it also was
learned that the vehicle
had not been registered
with the state since 2006-meaning that Ledbetter
had not paid sales tax or
penalties as provided by
state law. the county had
applied for a lost title and
special license plate to
exempt the vehicle from
tax, davis said.
in the press release,
davis noted the fact that a
special prosecutor has
been appointed to investigate Ledbetter in the case.
that prosecutor, Jack
McQuary, has told one of
the parties in the suit that
the investigation is still
ongoing.
“the plaintiffs in the
suit filed today wish to
see the law attach to
Sheriff Ledbetter just as it
attaches to each and every
citizen of Hot Spring
County. it is not understandable how an individual sworn to uphold his
duties as a sheriff can
remain in that seat upon a
finding that he is in noncompliance with state
law,” davis stated.
“Sheriff Ledbetter not
only failed to perform his
duties, but has blatantly
broken the law. the very
laws he and his office
issue tickets and arrests,
as well as assist the prosecutor in the prosecution
of individuals, has seemingly been set aside for
Sheriff Ledbetter. the
citizen-taxpayer Plaintiffs
in the lawsuit being filed
today simply want justice
and for the county to be
repaid any and all debt
owed to it. they are
proud to be from Hot
Spring County and are
under a great distress that
a man elected to serve
such a position of trust
and authority would start
his tenure as sheriff by
breaking
the
law.
Furthermore, they want to
send a message that Hot
Spring County is not
going to tolerate such
behavior of its elected
officials and it will come
to light should those
elected officials, such as
Ledbetter, break the law,”
she continued.
“the parties hope and
pray for further investigation, action by the
Attorney General’s office
and/or some affirmative
action by the Special
Prosecutor as they do not
want to see such an act
‘swept under the rug.’”
in the filing, davis
quotes Ledbetter as saying he “did not know he
was
doing
anything
wrong.” She then wrote
in the suit, “...ignorance
of the law is not a defense
afforded to the common
citizen of Hot Spring
County and thus the
Sheriff, the one placed in
a position to enforce the
very laws at issue herein,
should be held accountable
for his actions and treated
and handled by the judicial
system just as any other
common citizen would.”
in the filing, davis asked
that the court mandate
Ledbetter “to reimburse the
State of Arkansas and/or Hot
Spring County in a reasonable and adequate amount of
money that will pay for the
title to become clear and
should reimburse any and all
monies he profited as a
result of this illegal transaction, including but not
limited
to
interest,
mileage, costs and all
relief associated with said
vehicle transaction.”
davis further noted that
Ledbetter “breached his
fiduciary duty to the citizens of Hot Spring
County by driving and
operating a vehicle without proper tags or license
while simultaneously running to become the sheriff
[and] failing to pay the
appropriate tax on the
purchased vehicle.”
the suit also asks that
Ledbetter as an individual
be responsible for the citizens’ attorney fees.

the dealer also paid the
interest on the loan to the
bank.
davis stated that the
sheriff-elect “drove said
vehicle for six months,
apparently without making a payment, then had
the county pay for those
six months of the vehicle
plus the interest.”
the auditing committee
found that the transactions did not comply with
ethics regulations, which
states that an elected official “shall not be interested in any county transaction for which he will
benefit” and “an officer
may not use his office to
advance his individual
personal economic interest.”

Meeting in regular session,
the Amity City Council rehired a street department
employee and filled a vacancy on the council.

job another time by Mayor
