tion with the Safe Routes To

The core part of the project

the east side of Second Av-
enue Northwest from West

Alternate C includes a new
crosswalk along Second Av-

the project and all three alter-
nates.
After the open house, the
City Council is expected to
award the bid during its regu-
lar meeting on Monday night,
Aug. 5.
Construction is expected to
start on Monday, Aug. 12.
Construction will last 45
days.
Grant
The City of Arlington, with
Sibley County as a sponsor
and the Sibley East Public
Schools and St. Paul’s
Lutheran School as coopera-
tive partners, received a fed-
eral $199,980 Safe Routes To
School grant during the late
summer of 2011.
Arlington, at that time, was
one of 16 Minnesota projects
funded by the federal pro-
gram and announced by the
Minnesota Department of
Transportation (Mn/DOT).
Of the 16 projects, 12 are
in Greater Minnesota and the
rest are in the Twin Cities
metropolitan area. All of the
grants will be used to im-
prove or build trails and side-
walks for walking and biking.
The total was $3.8 million.
“These projects will make
walking and biking to school
easier for children and more
acceptable to their parents,”
Mn/DOT Commissioner Tom
Sorel said at the time the
grants were announced. “The
grants will mean safety im-
provements in routes to
school so students will be
more inclined to walk to
school. And walking to
school is another way to in-
crease exercise for healthier
kids.”
Overall, there were 82 ap-
plications representing $83
million in projects.

Safe Routes To School project
By Karin Ramige Cornwell
Manager
Sibley East is conducting
an independent investigation
into the charge against Ele-
mentary physical education
teacher and varsity girls bas-
ketball coach Doug Flieth,
Superintendent Jim Amsden
said in an e-mail to the Ar-
lington Enterprise on Thurs-
day, July 11.
Flieth was charged with
one count of interference with
privacy on Tuesday, July 9
for allegedly recording under-
neath a hair stylist’s dress
with his cell phone, according
to the Sibley County Attor-
ney’s Office.
According to Amsden, on
July 9, Flieth was read the
following statement:
“Sibley East Schools will
conduct an investigation and
be guided by state statute and
district policy in regards to
this criminal complaint. As
we conduct this investigation
we request the following;
1. That you turn in all
school issued keys.
2. Return your school is-
sued iPad.
3. You have no contact with
any Sibley East students in a
supervisory role.
“These restrictions will
stay in place until you are no-
tified differently."
“The letter was read to him
because he was out of town
and would not get it in a
timely manner via the postal
service and it could not be
hand delivered,” Amsden
said.
Amsden reported that Fli-
eth has complied with the re-
quests and has relinquished
his school keys, iPad and lap-
top.
On July 11, a letter was
also sent to Minnesota De-
partment of Education
(MDE) Licensing along with
the criminal complaint in ac-
cordance with Sibley East
Policy 406 (Section V)(Letter
K), according to Amsden.
The e-mail went on to say
that “a special non-public
closed session had been post-
ed for the board meeting on
July 15th, 2013, to discuss
and update the board on the
case/investigation.”
The district’s attorney,
Tony Nerud, is assisting in
the matter, according to Ams-
den.
Closed
Meeting
A special non-public closed
meeting under Minnesota
Statute 13D.05, Subd.2(a)(2),
was held after the regular
school board meeting on
Monday, July 15. The posted
purpose of the meeting was to
review active investigative
data regarding an employee
of the district.
A summary of the meeting
from the superintendent’s of-
fice read:
“SUMMARY OF NON-
PUBLIC MEETING
“The Sibley East ISD
#2310 School Board met in
closed meeting pursuant to
MSA §13B.05, Sub. 2(a)(2)
to discuss investigative mate-
rials of data. Discussion fo-
cused on a complaint filed in
connection with one of Sibley
East’s employees. The Board
directed further investigative
efforts to be undertaken.”
No further information has
been provided.
SE to conduct independent investigation into Flieth charge
By Karin Ramige Cornwell
Manager
The Sibley East School
Board took a working session
on the road Monday evening
prior to the regular board
meeting.
Head Custodian Bob
Pichelmann comes to the
board each year with a list of
capital improvements. This
year, he asked the board to
tour the two buildings to gain
a better understanding of the
issues the custodians are fac-
ing.
Most of the roofs are an
issue at both campuses. The
roofs are estimated to be
around 30 years old, with a
lifespan of 20 years.
With the heavy rains this
summer, water has been an
issue.
The siding on the main
gym in Gaylord is falling off
and the particle board under-
neath is completely rotted.
The wooden window
frames in the junior high in
Gaylord are also rotting.
Some have been replaced.
The floors in the gyms are
warped. In the Gaylord mid-
dle gym, there is significant
water damage directly under
the bleachers. Pichelmann
suspects that the stands were
power-washed for years, let-
ting the water flow down to
the wood floor.
Ventilation in the science
labs, kitchens, shops and
bathrooms are also issues.
Some tile floors and piping
still contain asbestos in both
locations. They are sealed
and not harmful to the public,
but will need to be replaced
at some point.
Furniture, such as tables,
chairs and desks, are in need
of replacement at the Gaylord
location. Some desks date
back to the 1950s, according
to Superintendent Jim Ams-
den.
Hot lunch equipment, such
as convection ovens, dish-
washers and cupboards are
beyond their expected life ex-
pectancy and will need to be
replaced soon.
Pichelmann also said the
locker rooms in Arlington are
iin need of updates as well.
Pichelmann added the boil-
ers in Arlington have been in-
spected and given the follow-
ing recommendations for re-
pairs: refractory of doors,
safety relief valve, emergency

International high school
exchange students are coming
to Minnesota to study during
the 2013-14 school year.
These students will integrate
themselves into a local family
with the goal of experiencing
American culture as an Amer-
ican high school student does.
In turn they will provide in-
sight into their own culture.
STS Foundation, a non-
profit student exchange or-
ganization, is proud to help
facilitate these relationships.
They have been doing so for
the past 20 years and look
forward to finding new host
families in the Arlington,
Gaylord and Green Isle areas
and connecting them with ex-
change students. Two of the
students STSF is looking for
host families are coming from
Sweden and the Netherlands.
The Swedish student is a 17-
year- old boy who describes
himself as a happy, open
minded and social boy. He
enjoys sports such as skiing,
snowboarding and snowmo-
biling, downhill cycling and
other outdoor activities. He
enjoys traveling with his fam-
ily and is excited to share this
cultural experience with his
host family. The student from
the Netherlands is a family-
oriented 17-year-old girl who
loves to participate in sports,
including soccer, tennis and
basketball. She enjoys spend-
ing time with her grandmoth-
er, who she says is very cre-
ative. She is used to helping
around the house and her
chores include cleaning her
room and her rabbit's cage as
well as loading the dishwash-
er. She enjoys spending time
with her family, going to the
zoo or just simply watching a
movie with them. They are
both excellent students and
will have their own spending
money and health insurance.
The host family provides a
separate bed, family meals
and a loving and safe envi-
ronment.
Families interested in being
a host family can call Kari
Becker at 320-234-3475 or
karibeckersts@gmail.com.

The July meeting of the
Sibley County Historical So-
ciety will be replaced with a
planned tour to the Minnesota
Historical Society on Tues-
day, July 23, according to Cu-
rator Sharon Haggenmiller.
The group will spend most
of the day viewing the differ-
ent displays including “Min-
nesota’s Greatest Genera-
tion,” “Open House,” a story
that began in Henderson,
“Weather Permitting,” “U.S.
Dakota War of 1862” and
“Minnesota and the Civil
War.”
Members will have lunch
on their own at this facility.
Members will also make a
visit to the State Capital
which is located in the same
area during the afternoon.
The SCHS has found a 24-
passenger bus for the trip. The
bus will leave the museum in
Henderson at 8:45 a.m. and
return at 5 p.m. To register,
people should contact Judy
Loewe at 507-248-3345.
Country
Schools
Work is progressing on our
“Sibley County Country
Schools” project. Information
about Alfsborg and Transit
townships are particularly
sparse and would be greatly
appreciated. School photos,
any memorabilia or stories
about school experiences are
most welcome. Photos can be
scanned and returned. Memo-
rabilia is filed and returned
upon completion of the book
that SCHS is planning to pub-
lish. The good news is that
people can bring these items
with them when they visit the
Sibley County Fair from
Thursday, Aug. 1 through
Sunday, Aug. 4. The SCHS
will occupy the Cub Scout
building on the grounds.
Beside the display, the
SCHS will have all the neces-
sary machines on hand, lap
top, scanner, video camera
etc. that it uses for the project.
June Meeting
The June meeting was very
well attended by about 30
members and guests. They
came to hear Dr. M. H.
Noack, DDS of Arlington,
talk about the former H. M.
Noack & Sons Produce Plant.
The building is located at the
corner of Sixth Avenue and
West Brooks Street at Arling-
ton. German immigrant H. M.
Noack was born in 1857 at
Liepzig and died in 1927 at
Arlington. He left Germany
at age 15, traveled around dif-
ferent countries before finally
settling in Minnesota. He met
Anna along the way, they
married and had three chil-
dren, H.C., Alma and Charles.
The family came to Arlington
in 1897, worked in several
businesses until 1908 when
the H.M. Noack & Sons Pro-
duce began. H.M. noticed a
pond at the west edge of town
where ducks and geese were
gathering. He started feeding
them and more arrived and
thus the idea of establishing
produce plant. H. M set up
contracts with customers in
the eastern U.S. and shipped
dressed poultry and eggs by
rail to New York. There is
much more to this intriguing
story which can also be read
in the book: Arlington Min-
nesota, 1856-2006.
The Sibley County Muse-
um is located at the west edge
of Main Street in Henderson
and open from 2 p.m. to 5
p.m. Sundays. Sorry, no ge-
nealogy is done on Sundays
but people can call 507-248-
3434 for an appointment.

Removed After 60 Years
The traffic signals located at the intersection of West
Main Street and Highway 5 were removed on Wednes-
day, July 10, according to the Minnesota Department
of Transportation. The traffic signals were originally
installed and fullly operational during mid July in
1953, according to an article in the July 16, 1953 edi-
tion of the Arlington Enterprise.
The four-way stop signs at
the intersection of East Main
Street and Old Highway169
Boulevard next to the west
ramps of the interchange will
be replaced in 2014 with a
permanent traffic signal sys-
tem, according to an article
the Belle Plaine Herald.
The total cost of the sys-
tem’s construction is estimat-
ed at $298,188. The Min-
nesota Department of Trans-
portation (Mn/DOT) has indi-
cated it will cover 80 percent
of the cost ($238,550.40)
while the city will be respon-
sible for 20 percent
($59,637.60).
Once the signal system is
in place, Mn/DOT will be re-
sponsible for its operation
and performing “major”
maintenance functions, in-
cluding the emergency vehi-
cle preemption system and
replacing equipment when
needed. The city will be re-
sponsible for “minor” main-
tenance items, including re-
lamping and cleaning the sys-
tem. The city will also be re-
sponsible for 100 percent of
power costs, including con-
nection fees and monthly
power charges associated
with the signal luminaries.
Gregory Kern of Mn/DOT
metro signal design, stated
that MN/DOT currently has a
letting date of Nov. 22 for the
project and construction in
2014.
Plan in motion to install traffic
signals at East Main/Hwy. 169

Letter To The Editor
The Safe Routes To School project just didn’t happen
overnight. It has been in the works since Arlington Mayor
Jim Kreft announced the goal for the City Council back in
January of 2010.
The City of Arlington, with Sibley County as a sponsor and
the Sibley East Public Schools and St. Paul’s Lutheran
School as cooperative partners, received a federal $199,980
Safe Routes To School grant during the late summer of 2011.
Now, two years later, the City Council will soon accept a
bid and the project will be started in the middle of August.
The project is an excellent example of government entities
coming together in the form of solid partnerships for the
good of the people, community, school district and county.
Although it is a state program, the improvements will be
funded with nearly $200,000 in federal monies right here in
Arlington. Taxpayers in the City of Arlington, Sibley County
and Sibley East School District will not be on the hook for
any money.
In addition, the federal grant will improve routes that youth
and adults already use in the community. The project is de-
signed to encourage youth to walk and bike to school and
adults to get exercise. The new improvements will also assure
children and adults that they can do this in a safe manner.
Kudos to the City of Arlington, Sibley County, Sibley East
Public Schools and St. Paul’s Lutheran School for working
together to secure federal funds for such a project. If the gov-
ernment entities would not have applied for and received the
federal funds, those monies would have been given to anoth-
er community.

A husband takes his wife to a
disco. There is a guy on the dance
floor living it large -- break dancing,
moon walking, back flips, the works.
The wife turns to her husband and
says, “See that guy? Twenty-five

turned him down.”
Her husband replies, “Looks

A redhead, brunette and blonde
were on their way to Heaven.
God told them the stairway to
Heaven was 1,000 steps, and on
every 5th step He’d tell them a joke.
But, they must not laugh or else they
couldn’t enter Heaven.
The brunette went first and started
laughing on the 65th step, so she
could not enter Heaven.
The redhead went next and started
laughing on the 320th step, so she
could not enter Heaven either.
Then, it was the blonde’s turn.
When she got to the 999th step, she
started laughing.
“Why are you laughing?” God
asked. “I didn’t tell a joke.”
“I know,” the blonde replied. “I
just got the first one.”

He turned to his wife with a look

By Lee H. Hamilton
Back in June, Gallup released a
survey that got a fair bit of attention
for its headline finding: only 10 per-
cent of Americans trust Congress as
an institution. Think about it. If you
walk into a cafe this morning and
there are nine other people in there
reading the paper or staring into their
laptops, only one of you in the room
has faith that the body charged with
making our nation’s laws can do its
job right.
What didn’t get quite as much
coverage was the fact that Congress
was just one of 16 institutions whose
public standing Gallup measured.
Atop the list in Americans’ confi-
dence was the military, followed by
small business and the police. Then
came organized religion, which
about half of Americans trust.
The bad news in the poll arrived
after that. The fifth most-trusted in-
stitution is the presidency — but it
enjoyed the confidence of only 36
percent of poll respondents. The
Supreme Court stood at 34 percent,
down three points from last year.
Add Congress into the mix, and
these are deeply unsettling numbers.
What lies behind Americans’
doubts and cynicism about the three
major branches of the federal gov-
ernment — with the exception of the
military — is undoubtedly a mix of
factors. But I suspect it rests most
heavily on a broad perception of dys-
function and a deep distaste for the
extreme polarization and politiciza-
tion these institutions have dis-
played.
We’ve always looked on the
Supreme Court as standing above
politics, for instance. Most notice-
ably starting with its Bush v. Gore
decision in the wake of the 2000
elections, however, the Court has
come to be seen as divided into polit-
ical factions, with each trying to ad-
vance its own agenda. It is now per-
ceived less as an institution of law
and more as a political institution.
Congress and the presidency, of
course, are political institutions. But
the current tenor of American poli-
tics works against them. Campaigns
are as much or more about attacking
the other candidate as they are about
debating substantive issues. Every
move that members of Congress
make — and that many Republicans
believe the President makes — ap-
pears to be about “playing to the
base” or putting the other side in an
uncomfortable spot. Resolving prob-
lems because they need to be re-
solved — especially the ones that
Americans consider most important,
like jobs and the economy — doesn’t
seem to be on the agenda.
Americans’ lack of confidence in
their governing institutions makes
correcting most any political or poli-
cy problem more difficult. The vot-
ers are less open to policy-making or
reform, since they don’t trust that
government can actually solve the
issue in front of it. Politicians tend to
back away from bold initiatives and
become less willing to speak out or
to act, because they anticipate the
dubious stance with which their pro-
posals will be received.
Much-needed reforms — to repair
the tax system, for instance, or to re-
shape government institutions —
will be met with skepticism if not in-
difference. The result is that only
very modest efforts can be expected,
reaffirming voters’ belief that gov-
ernment can’t be trusted to work, and
fueling political tensions that rise
when problems remain unresolved.
Government relies on policy direc-
tion and resources allotted by policy
makers to do its job. But it relies
equally strongly on trust. It may be
trite to say that “trust is the coin of
the realm,” but it’s no less true for
that. Without it, our institutions sim-
ply cannot be effective.
I don’t expect this recent poll to be
seen as a wake-up call in Washing-
ton. The city seems too embroiled in
its own machinations to be worried
about such matters as “trust.” Yet it
is also true that if members of Con-
gress, the White House, and even
Supreme Court justices want Ameri-
cans to treat them seriously — to lis-
ten to them, believe them, and above
all believe in the institutions they
serve — then they won’t treat our
declining confidence in them lightly.
They have to invigorate their efforts
to renew Americans’ trust. Because
unless they can do that, it will get
harder and harder for them to do
their jobs.

versity. He was a member of the U.S.

Why trust is the coin of the realm
To The Editor,
This week, the Minnesota Man-
agement and Budget Office an-
nounced that yet again tax revenues
were higher than expected. The
$463 million dollar windfall, by law,
will be used to pay back the remain-
ing balance of the Democrat's 2009
school shift. The GOP budget
passed in 2011 that limited growth
of government and didn’t raise a
single dollar in taxes has produced
remarkable and indisputable results.
Billions of dollars in greater-than-
expected revenue helped replenish
budget reserve accounts depleted by
legislative Democrats before the
GOP took the majority in 2011. The
extra revenue also helped pay back
the 2011 school shift in its entirety,
and paid back hundreds of millions
of dollars from the school shift
passed by Democrats in 2009. Min-
nesota has created more than 50,000
new jobs, as well as 87,000 new
business filings. Unemployment has
fallen from above seven percent to
5.3 percent.
The budget passed in 2011 helped
put Minnesota on the path to eco-
nomic success. We’ve seen steady
improvements, and even the Gover-
nor himself has acknowledged that
the economy has improved under
the budget he once decried as dra-
conian and “all cuts.”
Unfortunately, Democrats are tak-
ing us in a polar opposite direction.
Raising spending by more than $3
billion dollars, raising taxes by more
than $2 billion dollars on Min-
nesotans of every income level, rich
and poor. I fear that this will have
devastating impacts on our econo-
my.
A misguided tax on warehousing
services is already costing Minneso-
ta jobs and expansion opportunities,
even though it isn’t set to kick in
until 2014. Democrats continue to
keep their heads buried in the sand,
ignoring calls for a special session
to repeal the tax, even as expansion
projects that would mean millions in
revenue for communities, and many
potential jobs are put on hold. This
despite the fact that there is biparti-
san support for its repeal.
New taxes on farm equipment re-
pair will impact the agriculture com-
munity and our farmers. Republi-
cans warned that Greater Minnesota
could take a back seat to Metro-spe-
cial interest this session thanks to
Metro-dominated Democrat leader-
ship, and unfortunately we were
right. These new taxes will be a bur-
den on our farming community, and
rural Minnesotans everywhere.
Democrats had a recipe for suc-
cess to turn to when they took con-
trol of the legislature: Limit the
growth of government, allow citi-
zens to keep more of their hard-
earned dollars, and make govern-
ment more efficient and effective,
not more expensive. Unfortunately,
they turned a blind eye to these re-
sults, and are bringing their destruc-
tive progressive policies to Min-
nesota at the expense of the hard-
working taxpayers everywhere.

through-stop intersection pro-
posal in July. On the recom-
mendation of the Sibley
County engineer, MnDOT
has agreed to postpone the
trial period until after Gay-

300 pounds!
Erik Danielson, who will be a senior on
the Sibley East varsity boys football
team this year, recently became the
first Wolverine football player to
“clean” lift 300 pounds. “Erik brings in-
tensity to the weight room,” said Sibley
East head coach Chuck Hartman. “He
comes in with a purpose and works
hard from start to finish. There’s a rea-
son why he averaged 8.1 yards per
carry last season and had several long
runs. Other Sibley East players who
can “clean” lift 200 pounds or more in-
clude Cordell Bates (275), Arvin Latch-

History
90 Years Ago
July 19, 1923
Louis Kill, Editor
The work of grading and
widening the New Auburn road
west of Arlington was started
last week. The tractor and grad-
er operated by the county is on
the job and the work is progress-
ing nicely.
Herb Beseke informs us that
he has his threshing rig all ready
to start the season’s run, and
will begin shock threshing as
soon as he can get a full crew.
At this time help is very scarce
on account of the harvest.
Battery “C” of the 9th Field
Artillery of Ft. Snelling passed
through here Monday morning
enroute home from their sum-
mer firing at Ft. Pierrre, South
Dakota. This is the same battery
which stopped at Arlington last
spring. The battery spent Sun-
day at Gaylord where their base-
ball team played a picked-up ag-
gregation from that town. The
score was 3 to 0 in favor of the
soldiers.

The new traffic control sig-
nals are now completed and in
operation at the intersection of
Main Street and TH 5 in Arling-
ton. The signals are similar to
most all others in use on the
highways and streets in this
state, but their operation is
somewhat different. They are
called semi-traffic actuated con-
trol signal, meaning that they
are controlled automatically by
the traffic to some extent.
Private Lyle Kleist, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Allie Kleist, Ar-
lington, experienced a pleasant
surprise several weeks ago when
his brother, Kenneth, visited
him in the battle zone in Korea.
Kenneth is a radar technician.
He is stationed at Miho AFB in
Japan. His brother, Lyle, is in
the 75th Field Artillery in
Korea.
Andrew Beseke, one of the
oldest native born residents of
this community, passed away
Sunday evening at University
Hospital, Minneapolis. He was
about 90 years of age. With the
exception of short periods spent
in several homes for the aged,
Mr. Beseke spent his whole life
in the Arlington community
where he was born.

The class of 1933 will meet
this Sunday at the Arlington
Haus for the first time in 50
years to celebrate 50 years
since graduating from Arling-
ton High School. Twelve of
the original 17 class members
have promised to attend the
reunion. Two class members
are deceased and three others
are unable to come. Most of
the class have not seen each
other in 50 years.
Arlington A’s manager
Mike Hartmann blasted a two
run home run and Dan Hoefs
hurled a four hitter here
Wednesday night as Arlington
belted Glencoe 14-1 to clinch
the 1983 Ara Wilson League
championship. The victory
left the A’s with a 13-1 mark
and a three and one-half game
lead over St. Peter with two
games to play.
Tim Michaelis, 21, of Ar-
lington, received the Junior
Progressive Breeders Registry
Award from the Minnesota
Holstein Association at the
annual State Holstein Con-
vention in Bloomington. He
earned the PBR Award for the
excellence of his individual
registered Holstein herd. The
Junior PBR Award is the

The newly painted baseball
logo on the new water tower is
turning a lot of heads as people
drive through Arlington. A lot of
positive comments have also
been received by the Water
Tower Fund Committee com-
prised of Larry Sorenson, Dan
Hislop and Alvin Mueller. Ac-
cording to the committee, the
fund raising campaign has
raised $7,600 in cash donations
to date.
