Page 4 (Continued from page 3) once successful attempt to beautify our town, but it did not last. One person could not continue such labor for long, especially at my age. For several years I had attempted to get hanging baskets of flowers installed along the highway, espe- cially during the Wild Blackberry Festival and keeping them there through the I.V. Lion’s Labor Day Festivities, but there were no volunteers to help, and neither the city of Cave Junction nor the county thought their public works should be doing something that was more the responsibility of the overworked Chamber of Commerce. I realize that money was tight then, and it is even harder to come by today, and we should not be knocking ourselves be- cause we can’t catch up with the “Joneses.” Use Grants Pass for the Joneses. Their baskets along Sixth Street and Sev- enth Street are gorgeous, constructed by a nursery and maintained by a land- scape entity and are paid for by the city of Grants Pass and downtown devel- opment funds. We have no such com- parable organization in our area that could take on such a challenge. One day, hopefully, we will be able to get organized with some volunteers to work along with the city to make out town more visually attrac- tive with new, sustainable, shade giving trees, shrubs and lots of flowers. ‘Property seizure’ Harry Detwiler Ashland The world is full of surprises, but none more so than reading recently that Measure 3 was overturned by the courts. You remember Meas- ure 3 don’t you? That’s where Oregonians voted in the 2000 election to de- mand that police arrest and convict before they confis- cate your property/assets. Before the passage of Measure 3 all the police needed to take your prop- erty was “probably cause/ suspicion of a crime in- volving a controlled sub- stance. Conviction of the crime was not necessary. Most Americans have always felt that we were guaranteed “presumed in- nocent until proven guilty in a court of law.” Our constitution gave us that Emily G. Hooey Emily G. Hooey, 88, of Cave Junction, died on Sunday, July 27, 2003 at an area nursing home. Me- morial services will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Sat- urday, Aug. 2 at Bridge- view Community Church. Mrs. Hooey was born on Dec. 26, 1914 in Seat- tle, Wash. She married Norman Hooey on March 10, 1934 in Seattle. They moved to Cave Junction in 1946. They raised three sons. She was a member of Bridgeview Community Church. In addition to her hus- band, survivors include three sons, Ted Hooey of Starkey, Steve Hooey of Cave Junction and Norm Hooey of Medford, eight grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, OR Wednesday, July 30, 2003 right. My personal experi- ence shows that is not true. Without being arrested, tried or convicted of any- thing, my property was seized. I am still trying to get it back. Many police agencies use the forfeiture laws to increase their bottom line and some have abused that process. Measure 3 asked the question, “Should the police have a financial stake in law enforcement?” The answer was a resound- ing “no” by the voters in Oregon. It was a breath of fresh air when I recently read an article in the Medford “Mail Tribune” that our new Sheriff, Mike Winters, was quoted as being very careful about the public’s civil rights, especially when it involves forfeiture of assets. Winters states that property will not be seized unless there is an arrest and conviction. Jackson County law en- forcement seems to finally be headed in the right di- rection. ‘Hail fire marshal’ From Ann Reser Cave Junction Cheers to I.V. Fire Marshal Jerry Schaeffer for the professional wis- dom to propose a ban on the sale of fireworks in the Illinois Valley. And a question mark to the board that quickly tabled the proposal - fur- ther study? How many more homes need to be burned before the need for the ban is considered. The ban will not to- tally eliminate the use of explosive devices that a few irresponsible people will continue to set off, but it will remove much temp- tation for the younger crowd. Haven’t the citizens of the valley already experi- ence a major fire lesson? We don’t need any more. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH OF SELMA 18285 Redwood Hwy.
