It is the lifeblood of rural counties across Amer- ica, who serve everyday as stewards of our federal land,” DeFazio said. Noted Walden, “Nearly 100 years ago, the federal government made a com- mitment to rural counties, and we intend to see that it maintains it. “Together with county and association leaders from across the country and many of our colleagues, Congress- David Patrick Hatch Arrangements are pending at Stephens Family Chapel in Grants Pass for David Patrick Hatch, 64, of Cave Junction, who died Saturday, Dec. 30, 2006 at his residence.

A private family service St. Patrick of the Forest Catholic Church On Sunday, Jan. 14, the Gospel reading will be from John 2: (in part) There was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, with the mother of Jesus, and Jesus and his disciples among those present. When the wine ran short, at the urging of his mother, Jesus changed the water in six stone jars into wine. He did this as the beginning of his signs at Cana in Galilee, and so re- vealed his glory, and his disci- ples began to believe in him.

We were deeply disappointed that all our efforts last year failed to reauthorize and fully fund the program to replace the funds lost by the decline in federal timber harvest. “Since first introducing this legislation together two years ago, we’ve success- fully educated both sides of the aisle about the critical nature of this program to rural communities in Ore- gon and throughout the country. Awareness of this importance is now very high, and it’s time for members of Congress to will be held. Interment will be at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, Calif. She was born Julia Ridgely on May 9, 1911 in El Paso, Texas to Clarence and Erinea “Irene” (Hollenbeck) Ridgely. On Dec. 25, 1935, she married Marion Cline, who predeceased her. She owned and operated a dry cleaning business in La Crescenta, Calif. until the 1970s, and then worked as a tailor until she was 80. She moved to Cave Junction in 1996. She was a member of East- ern Star. She enjoyed sewing and being with her family. Survivors include a daugh- ter, Charlotte Babson, of Cave Junction; five grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren. A son, Roger Vernon Cline, died before her. Chapel of the Valley-L. B. Hall Funeral Home in Grants Pass is in charge of local ar- rangements. unite behind a revenue stream to fully fund the program. There is no more important issue to the health of rural counties. “Before passage of the county payments law, Ore- gon counties were receiving payments as the result of 1908 and 1937 laws specify- ing that the government share 25 percent of U.S. Forest Service (USFS) re- ceipts and 50 percent of Bureau of Land Manage- ment (BLM) receipts with counties in any state that hosts Federal land from which timber is cut. “These payments had been used to help finance rural schools and roads. Toward the mid-to- late ’90s, however, the prin- cipal source of those reve- nues, federal timber sales, declined by more than 70 percent nationwide. Conse- quently, the corresponding revenues shared with rural counties throughout the country declined precipi- tously, hurting school and transportation funding. “During 2000, legisla- tion to remedy this imbal- ance was enacted into law, establishing a six-year pay- ment formula for counties that receive revenue-sharing payments for USFS and BLM lands. The formula established a stable source of revenue, to be used for education, roads and county services in rural areas. The safety net amount was based on historical timber receipts. “If counties elect to use funding for projects on public lands, the projects must be developed by consensus and approved by a Resource Advi- sory Committee (RAC), a group designed to ensure ex- panded economic activity for the resource-based communi- ties benefit from this legisla- tion. RACs are made up of individuals from the local area dedicated to directing a por- tion of the funds for projects in their respective regions. “A county may also choose to use funds for search and rescue, commu- nity service work camps, easement purchases, forest- related education opportuni- ties, fire prevention, and community forestry,” Wal- den concluded. Query into Kim search advancing (Continued from page 1) sector partners to review this information and our ap- proach to search and rescue efforts,” the governor continued. Do you want freedom and joy back in your life? “I appreciate the exten- sive time and efforts under- taken during this search,” he said, “and my goal for the task force is to identify ways to strengthen our coordina- tion and communication in the future in order to ade- quately ensure the safety of Oregonians and our visitors.” The governor will ap- point his taskforce following completion of the sheriffs’ report. New attitude for response (Continued from page 3) identify some of the juve- niles. Herde contacted one of their mothers and ob- tained a confession. “It was an easy one to solve,” Thomas said. “We did everything.” Her busi- ness has been a popular tar- get for thieves and vandals, and it’s not the first time that she has located suspects. Thomas said that she phoned JCSO to pass on information from the most recent incident. “The next morning, we called to give information, and they said the case was closed because it came up and they couldn’t find any- body,” Thomas said. Messages were left for a deputy on three consecutive days, Thomas said, but none were returned. “Every day we called and got no response,” Tho- mas continued. “We never got a call back.” Frustrated, Herde pre- pared to file a complaint against JCSO. The incident was the second time during the past month that her car was vandalized, and she needed a police report in order to file an insurance claim. Herde also wanted to file criminal charges against the vandalism suspects. “We had been waiting for somebody to go and start the process to get it to the D.A.’s office, but that didn’t happen for a week,” Tho- mas said. “There wasn’t even a case number. No- body had even started any- thing.” A call was finally placed to then Sheriff-elect Gil Gilbertson, who al- though at that point had not assumed his position, he took immediate action. “I instructed one of the deputies to go and deal with it,” said Gilbertson, who took office Monday, Jan. 8. Wednesday night, Jan. 3, within hours of contacting Gilbertson, Herde received a phone call from a deputy. “He started asking about what happened, and I told him what happened,” she said. “He proceeded to ask why I hadn’t filed a re- port,” Herde said. “I told him I had called every day since Friday trying to make a report.” Gilbertson said that he expects a report to be filed soon, and that the JCSO will investigate the delayed re- sponse. “That’s something I’m going to look into,” Gilbertson said. Although a lack of po- lice presence has long plagued Illinois Valley, Thomas said that she is glad that Gilbertson already has put some of his campaign promises into action. “It’s just another exam- ple of how it’s been (the lack of response),” Thomas said. “But I’m sure it’s go- ing to be better now (with Gilbertson as sheriff).” It’s not the size of the dog in the fight.
