25 years ago Thursday, June 10, 1982 Ukiah Daily Journal SUPES MAKE FIRST MAJOR BUDGET CUTS. Supervisors made their first major cuts in county expenses Tuesday, voting 3-2 to drop from the roster 41 positions left vacant in a months-long hiring freeze. The sheriff’s department was hardest hit, losing seven positions, including five deputies. Public works was next, dropping six positions. Supervisors have considered a number of cuts, but this was the first concrete step in dealing with an unprecedented budget squeeze. “We’re going to be dealing with personnel in several ways during these budget sessions – we’re talking about reducing hours, reducing pay – but this is the way that will have the least impact on people,” said Supervisor Tom Crofoot. “I feel better about taking unfilled positions. Maybe it’s the easy way out, but I’d rather slide out this way,” he said.

Our garden of weeds and wildflowers has virtually no straight lines and forms a nar- rative with its old barn (that many call a shed here! Apparently all barns have been converted into houses, so perhaps if we fur- nished it with a sofa and kitchen, it would be identified correctly), windmill, ponds that flow into one another, and of course, the lovely wild- flowers. Most people here, with the exception of visitors from South Africa, Australia and Barbados, don’t know what a windmill is, and what it does. This and the idea that the barn is a shed, makes interpretation necessary. However, the bank of California wildflowers is like a chorus singing loudly, and has attracted a multitude of bees and hoverflies sipping the exotic nectar and charms people to no end. Peoples’ comments are: “It’s so uplift- ing!,” “I feel like bursting into tears!,” “I want to live there,” “If you are going to be busy, you must be very busy. This garden does it perfectly.” “What a change from all those depressing blues and purples,” “It is joyous,” and of course, “It is the best garden here!” The garden has been on the Telly, (as they say here), practically every night.

DRIVE OPENS TUESDAY BY TV IMPROVEMENT UNIT TO INSTALL UKIAH TRANSLATOR. The drive for $25 contributions to install TV transmitting equipment on “Television Peak” located southeast of Ukiah will be climaxed by a house-to-house canvass throughout Ukiah and Redwood Valleys Tuesday and Wednesday nights of this week. The drive is being conducted by the Ukiah Television Improvement Association which was formed to bring cheap TV reception to the area. Eddie Sierens, campaign chairman, has called a meeting of all volunteer canvassers at Cox Motor Company, 628 South State street tonight at 8 o’clock when areas will be assigned for a neighborhood canvass. 100 years ago Friday, June 7, 1907 Dispatch-Democrat LARGE MORTGAGE IN HOOPER LAND DEAL. What is believed to be the largest mortgage given by one individual ever recorded in Mendocino county was recorded here last week. The amount is $200,000 and J.E. Wheeler, of Oregon, is the mortgagee. Wheeler is the purchaser of the Hooper timber lands in this county and the mortgage covers a part of the purchase price. Several mortgages of a larger figure are on record but they are given by corporations, and this is said to be the record for a mortgage given by one individual.

WATER SYSTEM GOES WRONG. The water system was on the bum again several days last week. Friday and Saturday there was barely water enough to supply the town for domestic purposes. The cause was an accident to the pump. A nut came off in the cylinder and buckled the piston rod. It has since been repaired and there is plenty of water again and will be until something else happens. The pump has recently been rebored and refitted with pistons and should be practically as good as new.

——— SHERIFF LANDS BAD MAN IN PRISON. Sheriff Emmet Donohoe and Constable Lynch returned Monday night from their trip to Roseburg, Oregon, where they went after Wm. Kohn, the burglar under a fifteen-year sentence who escaped at the Ukiah depot last fall as he was being taken to Folsom. Kohn was landed at Folsom without mishap, although it was evident to the officers that he watched for an opportunity to escape on the trip from the webfoot state. Donohoe and Lynch were wary, however, and did not let him have the slightest chance. As a consequence the prisoner was visibly depressed as the end of their destination was neared. ——— LIQUOR LICENSE IS INCREASED. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS RAISE COUNTY LICENSE TO $200 A YEAR. At their meeting this week the supervisors raised the county liquor license from $60 to $200 per year, payable in advance instead of quarterly as heretofore.

——— COUNTY SCHOOL CENSUS. From Superintendent Babcock’s office we learn that the total number of census children in the county total 5159. Of these 128 were foreign born and the others are natives of the United States. The total number of families is 2856. There are 2070 children under five years of age; 4 Negro children; 14 Chinese and Japanese children of school age and 9 under five; 242 Indian school children and 76 Indian children under 5. ——— HAY COMMANDS GOOD FIGURE. The outlook for hay in this valley is not very bright, but the farmers are consoling themselves with the fact that what little they have for sale will command a good price. From $15 to $17.50 per ton for first- class baled hay has been offered already. The crop appears to be short all over the state. ——— POOR HOP OUTLOOK. Hop prospects are not very brilliant at present. Ben Hall was here during the week from Santa Rosa and offered the munificent price of 6 1/2 cents for old hops. Although there are over 400 bales of old hops in the valley the total was not reduced any by the offer. Jody Martinez can be reached at [email protected].
