Our neighbor was a Frenchman "Frenchie," he was called. He came fromFrance in 1882. He lived all alone, built a goodroad through his land and tried to make us paytoll. He built a nice rock house, hauling all therocks in a wheelbarrow. It had steps going tothe loft and, there was a trap door. He was soafraid of robbers, these steps were. set rightinto the wall beside his fireplace. He had alovely garden and carried the produce to townon his old black horse. He went from house tohouse peddling the vegetables: One day hestopped at a lady's house (she had just comefrom the east.) He asked her if she would likesome lambsquarter (a wild plant and similar tospinach; the old timers gathered it in the springand the green leaves were boiled .and eaten.)This lady asked him, seriously, if it was a frontor a hind quarter. He thought she was makingfun of him and went away swearing, Frenchiemust have been in his nineties when he died.
Our brands were KV and FAW. Cattleinterests at that time were all OK. The range'was open to all cattlemen. There would be biground-ups at the McBee place. They wouldgather cattle for a hundred miles around. Billythe Kid camped at White Oaks Springs for awhile, but only a short while.
White Oaks got its name from thewhite oak trees at our place. A Mr. Rhienboltwent from house to house peddling water thathe hauled from the springs. Finally a few wellswere drilled and cisterns built in White Oaks.The well water was very hard.
Dances were always quiet and peaceful. No drinking was allowed and agirl wouldn't dance with a young man if he had beendrinking. The Good Templars had a fine lodgethere and held weekly meetings and everyonehelped to make the meetings interesting.
We got the first piano that came toWhite Oaks. It belonged to Mr. Ozane whoowned the Ozane Hotel. He sold the piano tous for $500. We all learned to play it and whenthe girls moved to El Paso to go to school weshipped it there. .
I think Carrizozo came to life about1900. White Oaks didn't get the railroad assome of the moneyed men tried to hold therailroad company up, so tpey just went aroundWhite Oaks. So most of the houses built oflumber were moved to Carrizozo, even the oldMethodist church bell. In fact, Carrizozo wasreally made from White Oaks people and theirhomes. ' .
I love White Oaks and always will. Allmy children were born there. It has one of thebest climates in the world.

Will arrest beon the agenda?
,
An out of state reader of the LincolnCounty News, and yes we do have out of statereaders and they do want to know about happenings that are reported in the News, anywayan out of state reader called and asked about aprevious situation from this column. The readerasked if this writer had been arrested.Apparently this column mentioned .the fueltanks that were placed on Carrizozo Schoolproperty,actually the two tanks, each 2,500 gal- .Ions were located immediately next to a schoolbuilding. This column objected to the fuel tanksbeing placed. where they were. ,
, The next thing was that when a meetingwas held at the school there were two law enfocement officers .at the door complete withbadges and guns. As there were. no commentsmade by the officers to the 'school personnelentering the building and no comments to thefour local residents and no comment to one person who often asks questios that school officials won't answer, there was only one logicalsupposition as to why the law was there. Weassumed it was because school officials wereunhappy about what had been written in thiscolumn. " .
Thatmay have been incorrect but what'should we have thought? If the law was'there toarrest this writer, the only problem was that thiswriter was the sole caregiver of a terminalhomebound hospice patient. Being tossed in jailwas not an option at that time. .
Even if the assumption was incorrect,we have repeatedly asked for assurance that thelaw officers were not waiting to· arrestthiswriter. The situation at home has changed butthis writer would like assurance that an immediate arrest is not on the agenda. Several peoplehave insisted that this writer is being foolishand many have offered to have a school boardmember assure this writer that' an arrest is notpending. . . ,
Many weeks have passed and not .oneschool board member .has said anything whichleads us to .believe this writer will not be arrest-ed. .. Perhaps it is not re~listic but one personin town was escorted off school property by alaw officer and that person is not allowed onschool property. If it happened to one, why notanother? '
There was a' time when everyone waswelcome to attend 'school functions. Not sonow. What has happened? Someone' pleaseanswer.

students. Oh, and allow me to' clarify something; that award that was received for preparing ourstudents for college wi!h taking the ACT [it was publicized on Channel 13 news at noon a coupleof weeks ago]; we received the "bronze" award; which means there was a silver and gold awardspresented. Furthermore, it isn't very difficult to prepare roughly 6 students in the senior class, so if threeshowed u~ t<? take the ACT; thai's 50%, Come on! Just how ignorant to do you think we are.
. ThIS IS the type of behavior that has disrupted our school for years. We don't have nor have weever had a "strong" administration; to put power hungry; ego seeking, overbearing individuals in theirplace; the professionals that are being paid to run our schools are too busy running around promoting!helr ow~ agendas, instead of focusing on educating our children. This isn't a popularity contest..... ThisIS our children's education.
. ' Here are some interesting facts regarding our Carrizozo Municipal School Board of Educationpolicy: . . "
100.1 All children have equal moral, social and economic worth.Really, because it is quite apparent that if your moral, social or economic "clock" doesn't tick to
the Same beat as c~rtam professio~a~s who are running the school, well, your child is just out of luckbecause there won t be any remediation for them, no outside counsel for them. .100.2 The.re are nUJ;nerous differences which exist among children, and all children should have theopportun~tyto ~ultIv~te their native capacities and become effective, contributing members of ourdemocratic SOCIety' Without discrimination with race, national origin, religion, sex or disability.
, Really, there are a number of students that feel they .have been discriminated against in theschool; for the most part, I am told repeatedly "there are a set of rules for the select few and then thereare th~ "rules" for us. There is a member of this community that has a health disparity and cannot receivea pub.hc education because the school refuses to hire a school nurse. Democratic? There is nothing democratic about ~ow the. school board or the school is functioning.100.3 The primary purpose, of the public schools is to provide an.educational environment which
. provides strong basic skills as well as encourages creative and experimental activities.Really, well why haven't our students in elementary passed AYP; why are our students not meet
ing the national requirements in reading and math. We have a student to teacher ratio of 7:1; that'sseven students to one teacher; the national average is 16:1. How is it plausible that we are notm~~ting~YP?And folks, know t~is, there will bea new national criteria for "grading" schools; we arefailing miserably now. Where WIll that leave us in the future? .100.5 Paramount .attention will be given to the academic program of children in kindergarten,first,second and third grade. Many of the problems that occur later on in the academic careers ofstudents can be prevented if they are remedied in the early grades.
When I read this, I literally almost fell out of my chair. Refer to the above statement.100.6 Constant communication between the public schools and the community is imperative. Theschools must provide services and programs which have been identified by the community asimportant and which will provide the community with informed, self-reliant, and self-sustainingindividuals.
Wow! This is comical. Didn't the board just pass a motion that therewon't be any more publicinput? Mr. Ferguson had members of the community fill out a sheet; he picked what questions would beanswered; when did this type of censorship become acceptable? I am pretty sure that the communityhas never been consulted regarding what we deem as important for our children and when we attempt toaddress the board or theadministration; we are accused of being hateful or bullies. The school boardmembers sit up there and doodle, giggle with each other as to imply that we are ridiculous; roll their eyes;play with their computers. Oh, they appoint their little committees, but guess what the Dean of Studentsis on every committee at the school and has pivotal input of who is placed on these committees and youcan bet your house that it isn't anyone who has a differing opinion about how issues should be addressed.And now, it has become acceptable to STOP all public input. Again, I would state, how is it acceptablefor these individuals to impose their rules, regulations, moral convictions on us and our children, but yetnot abide by their own set of standards! !!!!!!100.11 The Carrizozo Municipal Schools FAIR 'but firm disciplinary policy to govern students'void of arbitrary and capricious standards,which would establish double standards. Studentsshould be vested with rights and responsibilities so as to start building a strong foundation fordetermining right and wrong. ..
This one I find almost absurd considering recent events at the school. I seem to recall that therewere two individuals with a weapon that warm summer evening after football practice. In fact, fromwhatI understand from eyewitness testimony (WHICH HAPPENS TO BE MYTWO SONS), the other student was the first one to pull out a weapon; that student has NEVER been disciplined for this. I recently received an anonymous letter in the mail from the school (was in a school envelope) regarding an incident that happened last year during the state FFA. trip in Las Cruces; three students treated another student maliciously, in fact; these three students blatantly and knowingly disobeyed the rules for "travelingand staying in a motel room" while on an out of town school function. It is this individual's [who wrotethe letter] opinion that these students have never been punished and two of these same students wereallowed to participate in another FFA trip.
My children came home and stated that one ofthe teachers was drugged unknowingly by two students. She had a reaction to "whatever" was in the food that was given to her, anaphylaxis is a life threatening adverse health event and could be deadly; did you know as of Monday these two students havebeen suspended! Suspended, not expelled! I was told that they had to prove what was in the "brownies";are you kidding me, a pregnant.woman has a reaction to something that was given in a brownie by twostudents!! We wanted to hang Nicholas Chavez on a cross for accidently discharging a weapon at school,but two individuals knowingly, willingly and maliciously put a chemical substance into brownies in aneffort to alter this teachers level of consciousness, at school (during Home Ec class) we have to confirmthat substance; it doesn't matter that she had a violent reaction to it or that it could have permanentlyharmed her and her unborn child. This was done with intent! There have been numerous accounts of certain students being allowed to "escape" disciplinary action regarding school dress code, behavior issues,fighting, and language; here is another example. .
Essentially, depending on WHO you are determines HOW you will be punished. The Dean ofStudents single handedly determines who has character, value, moral content and is deserving ofawards/rewards as well as disciplinary actions1
Has anyone asked these questions, why has the tradition of homecoming changed so drasticallyover the years? When will our students be having their homecoming dance? When will the junior high.be having their fall dance? It has been brought to my attention, that one person has decided when ALLof these events will occur or won't occur.....The Dean of Students. How did this position incite so muchpower? How did we as a community ofparents allow this to happen? THIS, as well as every other eventdescribed in this letter IS A DOUBLE STANDARD and it is happening week after week after week;school year after school year. Ifyou read the above school board policy; that's a violation! Oh, I forgotthese individuals aren't supposed to follow the rules; they just get to impose them unfairly on those whothey deem as "unacceptable". .
If anything in this letter has given you cause for concern; if you or your children have experienced this type of abuse; racism or injustice from certain individuals at the school/school board; if youhave seen or heard of school board members abusing their positions; I encourage you to contact the NewMexico Public Education Department, Matthew Montoya, special investigator; you can do this onlineand anonymously; state your grievance.: It is not enough to sit and talk about these events any longer;we must take action against these injustices. We can no longer allow this misuse of position and misguidance of so called "power/position". Our children deserve better!

from outside the state. It was obvious the nationalfolks really liked her and felt she could win andguarantee Republicans some cover in the legisla-tive and congressional redistricting. '. The day after the November 2 general election, it finally dawned on us folks out in the stacksthat GOP leaders had bigger plans for Susana.
National blogs, and soon newspapers, werealive with speculation about Martinez as the perfect GOP vice presidential candidate in 2012. Thenit was national news once again.
After watching George W. Bush capture 40percent of the Hispanic vote, Republicans realizedan Hispanic on the ticket might carry some realweight. They also found themselves doing betterwith women than usual.
Wow. What if we could find an Hispanicwoman of sufficient stature? That would make usdifficult to beat. Hey, I hear the New MexicoRepublicans have an Hispanic woman in theirgubernatorial primary. Let's take a look at her.
o So now Susana is on everyone's short listfor vice president in 2012. She's being invited allover the country to appear on panels about newfaces in the Republican Party. Could we be in foranother partly or mostly absent governor in ourfuture?
You know the rest. She'll deny her interestand tell us she only cares about New Mexico. Butshe'll keep going to meetings out of state. Andmaybe she might do some things in New Mexicothat will look good on the national stage.
Richardson immediately started settinghimself apart with "bold initiatives." He became atax-cutting Democrat. The RailRunner commutertrain and other environmental initiatives made him"The Greenest Governor." And he took a leadership role on immigration.
. Watch for the same types of action fromMartinez.
Grooming Gov. Martinez for a vice-presi. dential role is that she has reportedly said throughout her life that she wants to be president.
She could have had the GOP nominationfor state attorney general in any recent election butshe had her goal set higher.

called CD&A, which Santos said were commercial discounts and allowances.
"Effectively, what we charge isn't necessarilywhat we collect on, so therefore that's an allowance forthat," Santo said.
Minter said that' it appeared that, if not for theCD&A, the only PHS operated facility not "running inthe red" was the clinic in Carrizozo.
"So the assumption is that the rest of the county, the rest of the residents will pick that up with the millevy to make you whole; is that what you're trying todo?" Minter asked Santos.
"The mil levy was intended to compliment, orsupplement, what are the revenues that we otherwisecollect to offset the expenses in terms of the delivery ofhealthcare," Santos answered. "In order to be effectively able to do that in our rural clinics, yes, that is neces-sary in order to break even." ,
Minter said that she 'was particularly interestedin having a look at the sliding scale billing system usedby PHS to determine how much certain patients, arecharged for services.
"You have a sliding scale for payments, right?"Minter asked: "I'veasked before ifthe requirements forthe clinics were the same as we have for SoleCommunity Provider and indigent healthcare."
The sliding scale system of billing is providedto patients who meet low-income requirements yet donot qualify for other health service programs likeMedicare or Medicaid..
Santos said that he would be happy to providethe sliding scale formula to Minter.
Minter said that she would also like to get amore detailed accounting of expenditures at the county's PHS operated clinics, similar to the budget statements provided by the operators of the county's Hondoclinic, La' Casa de 'Buena Salud, Incorporated (LaCasa). Minter said that, unlike PHS, La Casa provides abudget break-down that includes how much is paid forthings like employee salaries and utilities.
. Santos said that PHS provides a more expansive selection of services in the county than La Casadoes, and PHS's methods of arranging data differs fromthe smaller provider's methods. .
"That data is ultimately tied to patient information and patient accounts, which is why we don't breakit down that way in the normal reporting," Santos said."I'm not trying to be elusive or evasive in the processof it all, but again, this is how we report the informationin terms of how are boards are managing the informa-tion today.". .
"I don't want to ask for anything special,"Minter countered, "but, again, Hondo gave us the revenues from, okay, was it Medicaid; was it indigenthealthcare; was it private pay: was it third-party."
Santos said that information was provided tothe board of county commissioners by PHS once a year.
Currently the county budgets $20,000 annuallyin mil levy funds to the clinic in Corona, $379,621 tothe Carrizozo clinic and $85,000 to the clinic at theHondo schools. An additional $93,000 in mil levy fundsis budgeted for the Capitan clinic, with no increase inthe taxes collected from the public.
The county receives $800,000 annually fromPHS for lease of its health care facilities. That money isin tum used to support the Lincoln County healthcaresystem. The 20 year lease agreement with PHS wassigned in 2006. PHS has the option to renew for another 20 years in 2026 under the current terms and conditions of the lease, but agrees to review and, if requested, renegotiate the amount of rent paid to the countyevery fifth year.

needing this, but I'm glad we got it," she said. "1 hopethat '(provides) what you need as far as the clinics go,"she told Minter.
Stewart explained that the LCMC administrators submit their annual request for county generatedfunding in May. The funding is approved by the boardof commissioners as they prepare the annual budget forthe county, and the approved funding is divided intoincrements that are paid out monthly.
He warned that a change in the process, areview of the clinics' expenditures each month prior topayment approval; could not only cause delays in thepayment schedule but would potentially be a violationof the county's agreements with .the healthcare serviceproviders. ,
In its lease agreement with PresbyterianHealthcare Services (PHS), the corporation contractedto operate the medical center and clinics in Carrizozo,Coronaand the new clinic in Capitan, the parties agreeto meet annually to review the scope-andavailability ofservices provided at LCMC, Stewart said. ,
The agreement also says that the county andPHS can use the voter-approved 3.0 mil levy fundingfor the purpose of "operating and maintaining the clinics and the hospital facilities and services, constructing,remodeling, renovating and making additions to theclinics and the hospital including new and replacementcapital equipment acquisitions, and any other purposeto which PHS and the county mutually agree".
As long as PHS consents to it, the county canalso apply a portion of the mil levy funds to its indigenthealthcare fund. .
The county also agrees to make its best effort toparticipate in and fund the Sole Community Providerprogram, which reaps three dollars of federal fundingfor every dollar contributed by the county and is used tosuPP.ort small, rural hospitals that meet programrequirements.
According to LCMC administrators, SoleCommunity Provider funds are used to offset the finan,~ial draw on hospital resources resulting from providing care 0 to indigent, uninsured and under-insuredpatients.
The agreement between the county and PHSmandates that PHS will provide the county' with anaudited .annual report that details the receipts andexpenditures of mill levy proceeds for the previousyear. •
, PHS is further mandated to supply a plannedbudget in its annual request' for taxpayer funding. Thatplanned budget must explain the planned usage of thefunding for the coming year. . .
The agreement also says that "PHS shall prepare such additional reports as the county from time totime will reasonably require".
In the past as well as currently, hospital administrators, LCMC board members and some county commissioners have adamantly stated that specific detailsabout PHS expenditures for things like clinic staff·salaries are proprietary and unavailable for publicreVieW. ,
Minter said that she hadn't requested a reporteverx month from PHS, and that even a slightly moredetailed annual accounting ofclinic expenditures wouldsatisfy her request for information. . '
Santos told the county commissioners that hedidn't think anyone could present the intricate and complex nature of healthcare funding in a single document,but he was willing to sit down with one or all of themand answer more detailed questions if they found it tobe necessary.
Minter asked Santos to explain something
