Dear Editor: .
Recently the Greenbrier
County Deputy Sheriffs' Asso-
ciation asked the Greenbrier
County Commissioners to agree
to have a levy placed on this
November's ballot to raise depu-
ties' salaries and to upgrade ve-
hicles used by this law-enforce-
ment body. It would appear that
the Commissioners are less than
enthusiastic and supportive of
the deputies' ballot appeal. It
also appears that the Commis-
sioners might be playing politics
(what's new?) with their own
suggested ballot. To date, the
"ballot issue" remains unre-
solved, l understand.
Greenbrier County Deputies
are woefully underpaid in con>
parison to deputies in other
compa rably-sized / populated
counties[ It is my understanding
that the cost to taxpayers for
highly-deserved raises and up-
dated equipment l()r our delta-
ties is approximately $7 vearh'
per resident. Now tiaat's ,a bar-
gain any way },'¢)u look at it!
Joe Feamster, Preside'hi oi the
(;reenbricr County ('ornmission-
era, was defeated in his bid for
re-eh2ction nornination in the
May 8 l'rimarv. Mv advice to the
other two (~ommissioners
(McClung and t tutsenpiller,
both Dernocrats): You and other
elected/appointed governmen-
tal employees best become re-
sponsive to citizen concerns, It's(
your name might appear in the
"defeated" column in \,our next
election bid! And you could bc
beaten by a Republican ...... ,is un-
thinkable as that may be to
Democrats in Greenbrier
County! (Democrats have been
entrenched in Greenbrier
County Courthotme offices for
about 6t) or more years and
some seem to think they have
"inherited" the offices for eter-
nity'!)
"l'()litics and government as
usual" mttst come to an el'Rt
where citizen's concerns are
largely ign()red except at elec-
tion time. More and more
Greenbrier Countians are be-
coming "fed up" with the status
quo. (Re: the defeat of Feamster
and the '.,cry, :'cry narrow re-
election nomination bid by Sena-
tor Brackenrich by an unkr~own
~relativelv) challenger from Clay
County.)
It's time all public office hold-
ers listen to citizens or else the
citizens need to "throw 'era out"
next election time. And voters:
let your elected representatives
know this in words that they
clearly understand! Only then

Dear Editor:
.htdging from the descriptions
of Monroe County's Jail, it cer-
tainly does not sound like I
would like to spend any tim(,
there, t{owever, in all fairness to
the taxpayer, the jail shouldn't
be a "Best Western" with
gua rds.
So, if judgment must be
made, I would prefer this jail
remain open and hope the
would-be candidates for incar-
ceration get the word "If you do
the crime, you'll do your time in
Monroe County jail."
As for the social programs
proposed by John Cole Vodicka,
of Alderson Hospitality ttouse,
thev sound very nice but the
only effect on the broadbase
criminal is another expense t()
the taxpayer. If Mr Vodicka
wants to attempt rehabilitation,
let him have a go .... at his ex-
pense, after Monroe County is
through with them, but spare
the poor taxpayer.

Dear Editor:
I would like to warn the
people of Muddy Creek Moun-
tain of a cat thief, I've had a kit-
ten for six weeks now, and July
30 someone saw it necessary to
take him for their own. I was
away from the house for no
longer than 30 minutes when he
was taken. It is a shame that
someone has to take son'leOlle's
_family pet for their own enjoy-
ment. To some people that is the
same as taking one of their own
children. It makes you wonder
what else they will take. Is any-
thing safe? 1 hope this thief is en-
joying and caring for MY kitten!
