Shooter injures two, then takes his own life in officer involved shooting on Interstate-35 At approximately 7 a.m. on May 31, 2019, Missouri state troopers responded to Interstate 35 on a report of shots fired from a red passenger car. The suspect shot the occupants of two vehicles traveling northbound on Interstate 35. Troopers observed the vehicle northbound near the 57-mile marker on Interstate 35 traveling at a high rate of speed. The suspect vehicle fled from troopers who attempted a traffic stop and a pursuit was initiated. The pursuit continued northbound on Interstate 35 and near the 62-mile marker the suspect fired shots at the trooper who was in pursuit. The trooper returned fire as the pursuit continued northbound on Interstate 35.
At exit 64 the suspect vehicle was involved in a rollover traffic crash and the suspect was found pinned under the vehicle. The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene by the Daviess County coroner. The suspect has been identified as Julian Santiago-Cruz, 26, of Guadalupe Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Preliminary autopsy results show Julian Santiago-Cruz died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The two motorists who were shot were taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Troopers involved in the incident were not injured. The Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Division of Drug and Crime Control continues the investigation.

Horse trainer searches for clues, finds answers Tom Mowery with Mutual Gains Horsemanship, a natural horse trainer out of Colorado and considered one of the best in the country, held a horse training clinic May 21 and June 1 at Alvin Detweiler’s farm south of Jamesport. Mr. Mowery worked with a horse under harness Saturday. “I feel like it’s Christmas every day because I get presents all the time,” he said, when the horse he was working with agreed to cooperate. Mr. Mowery takes the best of natural horsemanship and applies it to each individual situation. The
notion that there is something to gain for the horse as well as the human is the basis for his training. Mr. Mowery is best known for providing insight on how a horse thinks and processes information. An Amish man commented that…”Tom knows the inside of a horse better than anybody I know.” Mr. Mowery told the horse owners gathered that it was all about getting the horses’ minds to work better. It was the 10th year Mr. Mowery had made the trip to Jamesport.

OPINION
June 5, 2019
Worth the wait? Highway 13 just doesn’t have that many good places for a driver to pass a slower vehicle. That is especially true when floods reroute traffic. While driving south to Warrensburg this past weekend, I don’t know how many northbound dump trucks we met – making the traffic lines long where nobody dared passing. So, in such circumstances, you’re bound to see all kinds of drivers on that 90-mile trek south. There are the cutters – drivers who navigate by cutting into the small space just in front of you as if whatever they’re doth itor s i ing is more important than you. Then there are the fighters – drivers who display their aggressiveness by passing on a yellow line, sometimes while shouting or worse. Grandpas like me tend to just keep in line. Looking at me in your rear by Darryl Wilkinson view mirror lets you see me and others worse off, driving behind you. Staying in line is less stressful. So, naturally, my mind wanders. I found myself daydreaming about our next scheduled trip. We’re making plans to attend a wedding in Washington State later this year. After witnessing the nuptials, we’re planning to battle traffic to drive down through California on the return trip home to experience Redwood National Park. If that happens, Lord willing, scratch #1 off my “bucket list.” I realize my dreams may seem tame to you. Certainly mountain climbers who crave admittance in the Seven Summits Club would snort. The “Seven Summits” are comprised of the highest mountains on each of the seven continents of the earth: Everest (Asia), Aconcagua (South America), Denali (North America), Kilimanjaro (Africa), Elbrus (Europe), Vinson (Antarctica), and Mt. Kosciuszko (Australia). Some argue that Carstensz Pyramid (New Guinea) and Mt. Blanc (France/Italy) gain climbers admittance into the club if conquered rather than the smaller Mt. Kosciuszko. But, the thing is, people are dying to scratch such climbs off their bucket lists. Literally. Eleven people have died scaling the peak of the highest mountain in the world, Mount Everest in Nepal, just this year alone. The treacherous mountain has claimed more than 290 lives since 1921, when reaching the peak was first attempted. But that’s not what makes headline news and the talk shows today. It’s that long line of climbers, waiting their turn to reach Everett’s summit. A few days ago, a photo showed approximately 320 people waiting in line at the summit of Mount Everest. I read where just under 1,000 people attempt to climb Everest each year; the success rate is about 50%. What’s making this year particularly deadly is the weather. Thus far, fewer days fit for climbing has added the pressure on those wanting to conquer Mt. Everest. Besides possible death, there’s significant expense. The average cost of equipment and a guided tour to the top of Mt. Everest is around $42,000. A chunk of that is spent on obtaining a permit. A foreign climber is required to buy an $11,000 permit … to wait in line and possibly die! There is no day use only fee at Redwood National Park (camping fees are about $35 per vehicle). The park recorded 527,143 visitors (continued on page 3 )
T h is doesn’ t h ap p en of ten, but last week an alien spacecraft landed in the middle of the Poosey Conservation Area. There was no traffic on the blacktop to speak of. Since I’d gotten most of my housework done, I shuffled over to see if I could be of assistance. I’ve sat on plenty of church committees so I was used to deciphering strange tongues. Part of our Poosey Digest Favorites visit went something like this: ime e m in b F ie a a ie C m Alien: When we flew through your atmosphere we noticed that your planet is surrounded by a growing blanket of carbon. Why aren’t you aware of this? Freida: We are. Alien: Then why don’t you take steps to reduce it? Freida: A third of us believe it, a third doesn’t; the other third wants to get elected. Alien: But... Freida: Don’t try to figure it out. It’s a lot like the Kardashian wedding. Alien: We also find this strange inconsistency. You waste 40% of your food while one in eight of your planet’s population is starving. In fact, 30,000 die each day. Aren’t you aware of this? Freida: We’re busy texting. Alien: Hmmm. Well, then, can you explain this thing called Congress? Freida: No. I changed the subject back to Kim Kardashian. Within minutes the alien was Darr , Editor & the Publisher bored outylofWilkinson her skull, thanked me for chat, cranked up her space buggy and flew off. I was glad to see her go.

Breaking down Missouri’s budget by S tate S en. D an H egeman
Every year, the Missouri General Assembly passes a new state operating budget. This is one of the most important, and time-consuming, responsibilities of the State Legislature. The state budget for the 2020 fiscal year, approved by lawmakers in May, appropriates nearly $30 billion in public funds. Shown below is the breakdown of how the budget divides each taxpayer dollar among the various programs and depart-
ments of Missouri’s state government. The largest portion of the state budget is allocated to social services, which include our state programs for Medicaid and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. Next comes appropriations for elementary and secondary education, followed by spending on transportation projects. Together, these three areas account for more than half of the overall state budget.
After lawmakers approved their final version of the state operating budget, the legislation was sent to the governor. Over the summer months, the governor will carefully assess each portion of the budget, deciding which line items he wishes to sign into law and which provisions he may want to veto. The General Assembly will have the opportunity to override any of the governor’s vetoes with a vote of two-thirds of the members of each legislative chamber.

Keeping tabs, updates on bills by S tate R ep . J . E ggleston
In my report dated Jan. 24, I discussed how recent changes in the tax code may have accidentally under-withheld some workers’ income tax from their paychecks, increasing the chances of owing the state taxes on April 15 instead of receiving an expected refund. HB 1094 was filed to address this issue, and its language was amended into SB 87 which passed in the legislature on May 16. It says that no taxpayer who timely files their income tax return for the 2018 tax year shall be assessed any penalty for a delayed or underpayment on such tax liability prior to Dec. 31, provided that such taxpayer participates in a good faith payment
plan authorized by the Department of Revenue. In my Jan. 31 report, I outlined HB 397, which created protections for youngsters who get lured into the world of prostitution. That measure passed the House as a stand-alone bill in late January, and was eventually combined with HB 138 (Simon’s Law) and HB 185 (Hailey’s Law), both named for children who lost their lives under sad circumstances. Simon fell ill, was checked into a hospital, and was put on life support. Simon’s doctor eventually issued a “Do Not Resuscitate” order and pulled the plug on Simon without notifying Simon’s parents, which at the time was legal. It won’t be legal if
the governor signs HB 397 or HB 138, which both passed this year. Hailey Owens was a young girl who was abducted and killed in the Springfield area in 2014. It is thought that if an Amber alert had been issued sooner she may have been able to be found and saved. Hailey’s Law ties MULES – the communications system used by various law enforcement agencies – to the Amber alert system so Amber alerts can be issued quicker. HB 397 also contained several other provisions to protect Missouri’s youth. This language will become law if Gov. Parson signs the bill, which he is expected to do. He has until late June to sign it, and it will go into effect on Aug. 28.

MEMORIAL DAY: NEVER FORGET. FOREVER HONOR. This is the third of a 3-part presentation featuring columns written by Ernie Pyle, history’s greatest war correspondent. The Friends of Ernie Pyle and Scripps Howard Foundation provide these columns which he wrote immediately after the Normandy landings to members of the National Newspaper Association which includes the Gallatin North Missourian. Photos are published with permission from the National Archives. For more columns like this, view www.erniepyle.org
The Ernie Pyle World War II Museum features the famous journalist’s birthplace and a museum dedicated to Pyle’s life and writings as a war correspondent. It is owned by the Friends of Ernie Pyle, who are dedicated to preserving and expanding the legacy of the writer whose columns linked the soldiers on the front line to worried families on the home front. To preserve Ernie Pyle’s memory is to preserve the sacrifices made by what has been dubbed “The Greatest Generation.” To learn more about the Ernie Pyle World War II Museum located in Dana, Indiana, or make a donation to assist the efforts of the Friends of Ernie Pyle to honor him and that generation, go to www.erniepyle.org.
Ernie Pyle was the son of a tenant farming parents in west-central Indiana. When Pyle was killed by a Japanese machine gun bullet on the tiny Pacific island of Ie Shima in 1945, his columns were being delivered to more than 14 million homes according to his New York Times obituary. Pyle wrote about the hardships and bravery of the common soldier, not the grand strategies of World War II. His description of the G.I.’s life was more important to families on the home front than battlefront tactics of Gens. Dwight Eisenhower, Douglas MacArthur, George Patton or Omar Bradley. Prior to the United States’ entry into World War II, Pyle traveled to England and wrote about the Nazi’s continual bombing of London. His columns helped move the mood of America from isolationism to sympathy for the stubborn refusal of Great Britain to succumb to the will of Adolf Hitler. The Pulitzer Prize winning journalist’s legacy rests in his words and the impact they had on Americans before and during a war that threatened to take the world behind a curtain of fascism. His columns open a window to the hardships endured by the common U.S. soldier during World War II and serve today to honor what has been called “The Greatest Generation.”
A Long Thin Line of Personal Anguish NORMANDY BEACHHEAD, June 17, 1944 – In the preceding column we told about the D-day wreckage among our machines of war that were expended in taking one of the Normandy beaches. But there is another and more human litter. It extends in a thin little line, just like a high-water mark, for miles along the beach. This is the strewn personal gear, gear that will never be needed again, of those who fought and died to give us our entrance into Europe. Here in a jumbled row for mile on mile are soldiers’ packs. Here are socks and shoe polish, sewing kits, diaries, Bibles and hand grenades. Here are the latest letters from home, with the address on each one neatly razored out – one of the security precautions enforced before the boys embarked. Here are toothbrushes and razors, and snapshots of families back home staring up at you from the sand. Here are pocketbooks, metal mirrors, extra trousers, and bloody, abandoned shoes. Here are broken-handled shovels, and portable radios smashed almost beyond recognition, and mine detectors twisted and ruined. Here are torn pistol belts and canvas
water buckets, first-aid kits and jumbled heaps of lifebelts. I picked up a pocket Bible with a soldier’s name in it, and put it in my jacket. I carried it half a mile or so and then put it back down on the beach. I don’t know why I picked it up, or why I put it back down. Soldiers carry strange things ashore with them. In every invasion you’ll find at least one soldier hitting the beach at Hhour with a banjo slung over his shoulder. The most ironic piece of equipment marking our beach – this beach of first despair, then victory – is a tennis racket that some soldier had brought along. It lies lonesomely on the sand, clamped in its rack, not a string broken. Two of the most dominant items in the beach refuse are cigarets and writing paper. Each soldier was issued a carton of cigarets just before he started. Today these cartons by the thousand, watersoaked and spilled out, mark the line of our first savage blow. Writing paper and air-mail envelopes come second. The boys had intended to do a lot of writing in France. Letters that would have filled those blank, abandoned pages.
Always there are dogs in every invasion. There is a dog still on the beach today, still pitifully looking for his masters. He stays at the water’s edge, near a boat that lies twisted and half sunk at the water line. He barks appealingly to every soldier who approaches, trots eagerly along with him for a few feet, and then, sensing himself unwanted in all this haste, runs back to wait in vain for his own people at his own empty boat. *** Over and around this long thin line of personal anguish, fresh men today are rushing vast supplies to keep our armies pushing on into France. Other squads of men pick amidst the wreckage to salvage ammunition and equipment that are still usable. Men worked and slept on the beach for days before the last D-day victim was taken away for burial. I stepped over the form of one youngster whom I thought dead. But when I looked down I saw he was only sleeping. He was very young, and very tired. He lay on one elbow, his hand suspended in the air about six inches from the ground. And in the palm of his hand he held a large,
smooth rock. I stood and looked at him a long time. He seemed in his sleep to hold that rock lovingly, as though it were his last link with a vanishing world. I have no idea at all why he went to sleep with the rock in his hand, or what kept him from dropping it once he was asleep. It was just one of those little things without explanation that a person remembers for a long time. *** The strong, swirling tides of the Normandy coastline shift the contours of the sandy beach as they move in and out. They carry soldiers’ bodies out to sea, and later they return them. They cover the corpses of heroes with sand, and then in their whims they uncover them. As I plowed out over the wet sand of the beach on that first day ashore, I walked around what seemed to be a couple of pieces of driftwood sticking out of the sand. But they weren’t driftwood. They were a soldier’s two feet. He was completely covered by the shifting sands except for his feet. The toes of his GI shoes pointed toward the land he had come so far to see, and which he saw so briefly.

County library still picking up steam
Teen seriously injured, six others in Hwy. 69 wreck Two county teenagers were among seven youth involved in an accident on Highway 69 at about 6:15 p.m. on May 31 in Harrison County. According to the highway patrol, Gunnar Goll, 18, Winston, was driving a 2005 Dodge Durango southbound on Highway 69. About one mile north of Bethany, the front seat passenger grabbed the steering wheel, causing Gunnar to lose control. The Durango ran off the west side of the roadway, struck a ditch, and overturned. The vehicle came to rest off the west side of the roadway on its wheels, facing north. One teenager, Trayton Mitchell, 12, Bethany, received serious injuries. He was the only passenger wearing a safety device. Five passengers received minor injuries and were taken by NTA EMS to Harrison County Community Hospital. One passenger, Joshua Rakestraw, 15, Bethany, was not injured or transported. The five passengers with minor injuries were Elijah Carlson, 17, Destini Mitchell, 14, Alexis Pratt, 15, Dalton Pratt, 13, all of Bethany, and Parker Chamberlin, 16, of Pattonsburg. The Durango was totaled. The accident was investigated by Trp. D.M. Wilburn, assisted by Trp. T.B. Heintz, Harrison County Sheriff’s Department, Bethany Police Department, and NTA EMS.
Boil order remains for PWSD #1 The Public Water Supply District #1 of Daviess County has issued a precautionary boil advisory due to a water line that washed away during the extensive recent flooding, according to Clerk Karen Sweat. The boil order was issued May 30 and continues. All of the PWSD#1 of Daviess County customers that are north of Elmwood Avenue (the gravel road just south of the Pattonsburg First Baptist Church) and west of Highway 69 are under this precautionary boil advisory. The line has been repaired at this time. If any of the customers are still without water, please contact the PWSD#1 office at 660367-2521.

Nursing and Rehab weekly update by Jennie Ellis, LPN/MBA, Administrator
Certified Nursing Assistants are the heartbeat of Long Term Care. The CNAs are the ones who spend the most one-on-one time with our residents and they work hard to give each resident individualized care. Knowing each resident’s personalized care needs makes CNAs invaluable to our home. Without CNAs we couldn’t provide the quality care that our residents deserve. June 10-14 is Certified Nursing Assistants Week and we are celebrating our CNAs with fun events and treats all week to recognize all that these wonderful CNAs do for our residents.
Father’s Day weekend will be extra special this year as well. On Saturday, June 15, at 2 p.m. we are having the Toney Family come out and provide musical entertainment for our community. The entire county is invited to join in and enjoy this free family event. Refreshments will be provided. We will also be having a special luncheon that day to honor the residents who are fathers. Spread the word and plan to be here for the Toney Family Music Event at 2 p.m. on June 15. We are doing a 50/50 raffle and will draw for it during the music program. It is a fundraiser for the activities program.
It just never slows down at 306 West Grand.

Janet was a longtime Gallatin resident and library patron and supporter and honored the library with a substantial endowment upon her passing in late 2017. Additional upgrades to the recently remodeled basement community room space were provided by funds from generous donors and allowed the library to install a tile backsplash to the kitchenette. The library was awarded a $3,609 grant from the Library Services and Technology Act to aid in the extended program incorporating S.T.E.A.M. materials into regular B-I-N-G-O and Rocket Boosters storytime on Tuesdays, Cosmic Cooking and Rocket Club on Thursdays, and, new this year, SRP2Go - think bookmobile with summer reading programs — in Jameson, Pattonsburg and Winston on Wednesdays and Jamesport on Fridays.

MDC proposes new efforts to limit spread of CWD
The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) is increasing its efforts to slow the spread of the deadly deer disease called Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) throughout Missouri by proposing new regulations that would change requirements for transporting deer carcasses and add carcass-disposal requirements for meat processors and taxidermists. If approved, the regulations would become effective Feb. 29, 2020. CWD is a deadly disease in white-tailed deer and other members of the deer family, called cervids. The disease has no vaccine or cure and eventually kills all deer it infects. MDC has created a CWD Management Zone around where confirmed cases of the disease have been found to help track and limit the spread of CWD. The proposed regulations would: Restrict transportation of whole cervid carcasses into the state; Allow for the importation of cervid heads with capes attached into Missouri if they are taken to a licensed taxidermist; Within the MDC CWD Management Zone, limit the transportation of whole cervid carcasses out of the county of harvest, except for whole carcasses being transported to a permitted taxidermist or meat processor within 72 hours; Within the MDC CWD Management Zone, allow the trans-
portation of “low-risk” carcass parts out of the county of harvest, which includes meat that is cut and wrapped or boned out, quarters without the spinal column attached, antlers, and finished taxidermy products; Require meat processors and taxidermists to discard cervid carcass remains in a properly permitted landfill or waste transfer station; and Require that meat processors and taxidermists keep records of cervid carcass disposal. According to MDC, most deer hunters would not be affected by the proposed regulations and most meat processors and taxidermists are already properly disposing of deer carcasses. As part of its rulemaking process, MDC is asking for public comment on the proposed regulations through early August at short.mdc.mo.gov/Z49 under “3 CSR 10-4.135 Transportation,” “3 CSR 10-10.744 Commercial Deer Processing: Permit, Privileges,
Requirements,” and “3 CSR 1010.767 Taxidermy; Tanning: Permit, Privileges, Requirements.” The Commission will consider input received and make a final decision to move forward, modify, or withdraw the proposed regulations during its Aug. 23 meeting. If approved, the anticipated effective date of the regulations would be Feb. 29, 2020. The number of CWD detections has increased to 116 and the disease has been found in 16 counties.

DAR Good Citizens represent all five county schools, winners recognized The Gallatin Chapter DAR is proud to announce the 2019 Good Citizens representing the 2019 graduating classes of all five county schools. Recipients were Tanna Marcedies Courter, daughter of Jeramy Courter and Megan Williams of Jamesport; Ally Jo Johnson, daughter of Randy and Karen Johnson of Gallatin; Shaila Mariah Cramer, daughter of Brandon and Tiffany Heath of Pattonsburg; Robyn Briann Sprague, daughter of April Sprague and Jason Sprague of Jameson; and Darryen Elizabeth Ragan, daughter of Sarah and Jay Ragan of Winston. All five students entered the essay contest this year, with Tanna Courter’s essay progressing to the next level of competition. The Gallatin Chapter DAR usually hosts a Presidents’ Day Tea in February at which all Good Citizens are recognized, however, due to the inclement weather this past February, the tea was cancelled and chapter representatives made the award presentations at various times, including regular school days, senior awards nights and graduations. The DAR Good Citizens program is a way to recognize outstanding young people who exhibit the qualities of good citizenship in their homes, schools, and communities. The DAR good citizens program and scholarship contest is intended to encourage and reward the qualities of good citizenship. The program is open to all high school seniors enrolled in public or private schools accredited by their state board of education. United States citizenship is not required. The student selected as the school’s DAR Good Citizen must
have the following qualities: Dependability (truthfulness, honesty, punctuality); Service (Cooperation, helpfulness, responsibility); Leadership (personality, self-control, initiative); Patriotism (unselfish loyalty to American ideals) The recommended procedure for selecting a DAR Good Citizen is for the faculty to choose three seniors who have demonstrated, in an outstanding way, these qualities of a good citizen. From these three students, the senior class selects one student. Each school may, however, use a method of its own choice. Each school may honor only one senior class student per year as its DAR Good Citizen. Each school’s DAR Good Citizen receives a DAR Good Citizens pin, certificate, and wallet recognitions card. This student is then eligible if he/she wishes to enter the DAR Good Citizen Scholarship Contest. The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution was founded in 1890 to promote patriotism, preserve American history, and support better education for our nation’s children. Its members are descended from the patriots who won American independence during the Revolutionary War.

Jamesport veteran recounts military experiences in Korea R ep rinted w ith p ermission f rom th e C ameron C itize n- O bserv er By Mik e H anrah an Kenneth H. Mort of Jamesport knew early in life he wanted a career in the military. He entered the Reserves in 1955, but enlisted in the regular U.S. Army for three years. Following Basic Training, he was assigned to Battery 4, 4th Missile (NikeAjax) 56th Artillery in Bristol, Rhode Island. The men in this unit were WW2 and Korean War vets, plus many young troops, including Kenneth. He was able to learn much from the experienced men, constantly improving his knowledge of all things military. There is a saying in the military, “Don’t volunteer for anything.” Kenneth made no notice, he volunteered for “everything.” He made four formal requests for Vietnam, but was never assigned there. However, his eagerness and knowledge were soon noticed. By 1963 Kenneth gained the title of Fire Control Platoon Ser-
geant. He then applied for Infantry OCS (Officer Candidate School) and was sent to Fort Benning, GA. Six months later he graduated as a 2nd Lieutenant. This was quite an honor for someone with only a high school diploma. Kenneth took every course possible and attended Airborne Training and was subsequently assigned to the Officer Leadership Training Company at Fort Knox, KY. Afterwards he was assigned as Executive Officer and Tactical Officer. His major duty was the training of Allied Student Cadets from Africa and the Middle East. The greatest difficulty with this assignment was overcoming the language barrier, but he credits the perseverance of these young recruits. In the fall of 1965 Mort was assigned to Ranger Training, again at Fort Benning, which he described as exceedingly difficult. There were frequent 30-mile hikes with full combat gear, parachute jumping, and swimming. Note: Mort could not swim, but an allowance was made for him. with cholangiogram and common bile duct exploration Cholecystectomy

Following Ranger training, Lt. Mort was assigned to the First Battalion, 9th Infantry (Manchu), 2nd Infantry Division in Korea. On Jan. 3, 1966, he assumed command of Charlie Company. Charlie Company was known as the “point of the spear”, with a distinguished career dating back to General Custer’s time. As a young man, he was extremely proud of this distinction. The Battalion was assigned to the DMZ, a 2.5 mile wide, 151 mile long zone separating North and South Korea. Mort describes the area as a nightmare of artillery craters, barbed wire, mine fields, graveyards, and the demolished remains of homes and villages, destroyed rice paddies, booby-traps, etc. On the 29th of June, C Company was patrolling the DMZ when they stumbled into a mine field. Two mines exploded injuring members of the Company. Kenneth was trying to get to the wounded when he, too, stepped on a land mine. Mort lost his right foot and his right arm was severely damaged. He was evacuated to Seoul, South Korea, for two weeks, then to San Francisco, before transfer to Fitzsimmons Army Hospital for surgeries and rehab. He received a temporary retirement from the Army in October of 1967. Kenneth received the Army Commendation Medal for gallantry and bravery in connection with his heroism in attempting to help the wounded during the land mine incident. He also received a Purple Heart, Korea Defense Service medal, Good
