County employees
ask for more time
for negotiations
Some snow . . .
RECENT storms have put some white on the high mountain peaks, but the snow level has
not erased the drought in this part of the world. Modoc Supervisors extended the drought
emergency declaration at Tuesday’s meeting. There is some concern around the county that
agriculture and domestic wells could be affected.
Register
to vote by
May 19
With only a few days
left before the May 19
deadline to register to
vote in the June primary election, Secretary
of State Debra Bowen
is reminding Californians to register to vote
so they can weigh in on
important
decisions
about public records,
veteran housing and
who runs our government.
“With the deadline to
register to vote almost
here, now is the time to
get it done and check
it off your ‘to-do’ list,”
said Secretary Bowen,
California’s chief elections official. “Registering to vote is now easier than ever for eligible
Californians, so there
is no need to wait.”
Eligible Californians
can register online at
RegisterToVote.ca.gov
or get a paper application at local libraries,
U.S. post offices, California Department of
Motor Vehicles offices
and many more places.
Voter registration closes 15 days prior to any
California election.
Last month the Secretary unveiled a simpler, more intuitive
layout for her awardwinning online voter
registration
application. Other upgrades
include the addition of
eight more languages,
improved accessibility

MMC hosts meet on new building
A public hearing is scheduled tonight
as an update and current status of the
Last Frontier Healthcare District’s
plan to build a new hospital.
According to Modoc Medical Center
Chief Executive Officer Kevin Kramer,
the basic topic of discussion will be
whether to employ a “design-build” or
“design-bid-build” process for the new
facility. Simply put, the “design build”
would have the architect involved in
the design and building, while the
design-bid-build would have the architect draw up the plans and those would
then be put out to bid to contractors.
Kramer said the LFHD Board sees
advantages and disadvantages with
both concepts and wants to hear from
the public on the issue.
The meeting is set at Alturas City
Hall, May 15, 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
The escrow on the land to build the new
facility closed two weeks ago, said Kramer. The near 30-acre plot is between 12th
and 8th Streets, south of the old Forest
Service Building.
Kramer said the new hospital would
be an 8-bed facility and the price tag is
estimated at between $30-$40 million.
The funding would come from a U.S. Department of Agriculture loan. The current hospital is licensed at 16 beds, but
Kramer said the average daily census
hovers at about four patients.
He also reported there has been good
progress made at MMC and he sees
continued improvement with still some
bumpy spots.
One good news item is the Skilled
see MMC, page 4
On Tuesday, Modoc County Supervisors were greeted
by a large contingent of Modoc County Employees, concerning the County’s “last, best and final offer” to the
employee union.
The item on the agenda was not listed correctly, so it
will come back at the May 27 meeting for action. But,
County Counsel Margaret Long said the Board could
take public comment from the employees in the audience and that comment would be official.
The County and Modoc County General Unit represented by UPEC Local 792 Union have been at impasse
since September and the action on the agenda would
have resolved the impasses and allowed the County to
implement its offer.
While there were several issues on the table, some of
the most controversial were a downgrade from a five
percent longevity increase every three years to a two
percent longevity increase every two years after reaching the top step, an increase in insurance costs and a
change in the insurance waiver option for employees
covered by other insurance.
Employees in that case have to show proof that they
have outside insurance and now receive a $350 cash
payment. The new agreement would drop that to $250
and would eliminate the cash payment for any employee who waives coverage and would otherwise be eligible for coverage on a family member’s county-provided
health plan.
Several employees opted to speak Tuesday morning,
with one of the major themes being that staff has been
reduced in many areas so each employee is “being asked
to do more for less compensation.”
An employee of Social Services told the Board that
some eligibility workers would be eligible for the benefits they are working to gain for others because of their
low pay level. That person also said it’s difficult to attract trained employees to this area because of the pay.
One road department employee said the current low
pay scales mean some quality employees just won’t apply and some current good employees may look elsewhere.
A few Department Heads stressed that the County
should take a good look at its overall job descriptions,
pay rates and classifications.
UPEC labor representative Steve Allen told the Board
Tuesday he’d work with the County and employees to
come to better terms than what was on the table. He
asked the Board to delay the final offer and allow for a
better solution than the “unilateral” action under

County stresses
need for Wild
Horse solution
The Modoc County Board of Supervisors joined with
several other agencies Tuesday to urge the U.S. Forest Service to move forward now on management of the
Devil’s Garden Wild Horse territory.
A letter sent to the Chief of the Forest Service, Thomas Tidwell stresses the need for “Immediate, incremental and consistent population reduction methods that
will benefit all users of the range, as well as the taxpayer, by avoiding large increases in population with
ever larger impacts on range health and the agency’s
budget.”
The letter contends that the current wild horse population on Devil’s Garden, expected to be 1,575 this year,
is four times the management approved limit.
“Currently the wild horse population is so high that
it is resulting in significant economic hardship and ecological harm to public, private and tribal lands,” the letter states.
The letter is signed by the Modoc County Board of
Supervisors, Modoc Farm Bureau, California Farm Bureau Federation, California Cattlemen’s Association,
and Public Lands Council and offers five suggestions
as follows.

Off The RecoRd LeTTeRs To The ediToR
By Rick Holloway, Editor
Truth . . .
Truth is not a hard subject but can be elusive, however, revising history to make it sound better doesn’t get
a person to the truth.
Sheriff Mike Poindexter made a potentially damaging
mistake early in this campaign when he sought to raise
vehicle license fees through the Board of Supervisors.
The Board declined. Now he’s trying to blame nearly
everyone else, including this newspaper.
What’s sad is his campaign is running a reference to
an effort by the City of Alturas, Fire Chief Keith Jacques
and Police Chief Ken Barnes in 2008 to raise sales tax
one-half cent for police and fire safety. He’s wondering
if I have a double standard. The answer to that is no.
It’s no small difference that the Oct. 2008 tax question
was put to the voters by the Alturas City Council after
public discussions. It failed in the election.
Poindexter didn’t do that with his request. I’m not the
person who made the political mistake.
And just to be clear here, I’m not on the ballot.
When I brought up the issues of the Constitutional
Sheriff’s Association and Mike Poindexter’s involvement with that group, I said it was time to open the
discussion and Modoc voters would decide what they
wanted. That’s still the case and there is discussion.
That’s what elections are about.
I also said at the time that there would be people and
voters here that disagree with my assessment of the
group and its authority. In many cases, that will actually benefit Poindexter. One thing is clear, there is a
choice this time around.
I haven’t changed my view on the group, and the discussion will be continuing. Both sides are weighing in
and that’s what should happen.
Again, we are getting a lot of letters, so I’m going
to again cut this short to get more of them in. And I’ll
stress that shorter letters are preferred.
Have a great week.
Need change at Auditor
Dear Editor:
Over the past three-and-a-half years I have had the
opportunity of working closely with the current Board
of Supervisors and other Modoc County officials and
have been pleased with their effectiveness and progress.
There is, however, an issue with the current county
auditor whose behavior is often contentious and argumentative. If she were just contentious and argumentative she could be tolerated, but she has cost the county money through errors and late reporting to state and
federal agencies, then blames others for problems she
has created, creating an unworkable tension affecting
nearly every county department.
Clearly Stephanie Wellemeyer has the technical
skills that are required for the auditor’s position and of

Don Demsher
Alturas
Sheriff
wants
apology
Dear Editor:
Based upon your written
assurances in the April 17,
2014 edition of the Modoc
Record, you claimed that
the Constitutional Sheriff’s and Peace Officers
Association (CSPOA) was
a “Fringe right wing organization… that their proclamation and its intent
have some real stretches
in the interpretation of
the U. S. Constitution
and in the authority of a
County Sheriff. In many
cases, the proclamation is
actually unconstitutional
and ignores settled law.”
Also therein you saw fit
to include me, Mike Poindexter, Sheriff of Modoc
County, in these as yet
unsubstantiated accusations.
Patiently I have waited
through two subsequent
publications of your newspaper for you to set forth
the basis of these claims,
all of which directly injure
not only the CSPOA but
myself as well. Why have
you failed to act as promised? The CSPOA Resolution used Article 1 Section 8 of the United States
Constitution and Bill of
Rights in the drafting of
the resolution.
As you have failed to
publish a legal basis for
your allegations, I will
expect either a published
apology or a retraction on
or before May 29, 2014,
which is 20 days from your
last publication.
Sincerely,
Mike Poindexter

New
Auditor
needed
Dear Editor:
It is time for Modoc
County to get a real professional as Auditor/Controller/County Clerk. The
performance of Darcy
Locken has been one error after another.
The county audits,
starting in 2007-2008,
have not been completed.
The completed audits are
necessary for the county
to qualify for state and
federal grants. So far,
the county cannot receive
grant funds due to lack of
completed audits.
There have also been
errors and penalties for
payroll mistakes, and, to
top it all off, a total mess
in the apportionment
of property taxes to the
various agencies in the
county.
It is time for Stephanie Wellemeyer to take
over these functions and
clean up this mess. Elect
Stephanie Wellemeyer as
County Auditor/Controller/County Clerk.
Sincerely,
Alan Hopkins
Alturas, CA
Barnes will
enforce law
Dear Editor:
Our
current
sheriff
seems bent on expanding
his role beyond law enforcement. Through his
membership in the Constitutional Sheriffs and
Peace Officers Association, he’s trying to find a
way to undermine federal
authority and expand his
control.
This would cost money.
There will be court cases
to fight. Better to stop this
before Modoc taxpayers
get caught up in a battle
they didn’t start.
Vote for Ken Barnes. He
will stick to enforcing the
law.

No pawn of
Board
Dear Editor:
This is to circumvent a
nasty rumor going around
that the BOS is subservient to our Clerk of the
Board!
Stephanie Wellemeyer
goes above and beyond,
doing all the BOS asks of
her. When we have had,
and/or the new Board has,
an idea that can’t be done
in that manner, she always corrects whomever
and explains the right way
to do it or that it couldn’t
be done, nicely, not nastily!
Since the County Clerk’s
office combined with the
Auditor, she has been
in charge and/or was instrumental in seeing that
County elections were
done properly. It was, after all, a new roll for the
Auditor’s office. Stephanie
also did all the work and
mapping for the realignment of our five districts
and is kind and loyal to
the people of this County.
Perhaps what I appreciate most is: as a member
of the Alturas Chamber
of Commerce, she put together the plans for a Veteran’s float for the Fandango Parade. She has
continued this every year
since. Thank you Stephanie! Hope you win!

ER Time is
critical
Dear Editor:
I have been a physician in the Big Valley
area for nearly 30 years.
With all the changes
in delivery of medicine
throughout the years,
the
most
damaging
change locally has been
the loss of a local ambulance with advanced
life support capability.
As an ER physician who
treats patients in the
emergency room of
Mayers Memorial Hospital, I know transport
time is a critical element in insuring good
outcomes.
In trauma we speak of
the “Golden Hour” referring to time between the
trauma and the operating
room. If you are involved
in a motor vehicle accident and sustain serious
injuries, your ability to
survive drops significantly
one hour after you are injured if you are not taken
promptly to an ER for stabilization.
For heart muscle we
use the term “Time is Tissue” if you are having a
heart attack. There are
drugs which dissolve clots
in your coronary arteries more effectively the
sooner they are given,
which saves heart muscle,
therefore preventing heart
failure. If you’re suffering
a stroke “Time is Brain”,
which
means many patients
can be “rescued” from
having a large debilitating stroke, if they are
given TPA. TPA dissolves
clots in the brain, but is
only effective when given
within 3 hours of the onset of symptoms. Minutes
Count! Each minute of delay decreases your chances
of a full recovery. I want to
ensure that patients in
Big Valley have access to
emergency services ASAP,
to increase their chance of
survival, and decrease disability.
Vote yes on Measure X
and Measure Y
Dr. Dan Dahle
Bieber, CA
Barnes will
enforce law
Dear Editor:
Enforcing the law is a
big job, so it should be the
only job of any Sheriff. Modoc may be quieter than a
lot of places in California,
but we still have enough
crime and drug problems
to stretch our law enforcement budget to the breaking point.
Our current Sheriff,
however, seems to believe
he doesn’t have enough to
do, so he’s become the selfappointed defender of our
Constitutional Rights.
As a member of the Constitutional Sheriff’s and
Peace Officers Association,
Sheriff Mike Poindexter
signed a CSPOA resolution that if upheld, gives
him more power than a superior court judge. Modoc
County is making more
progress now than it has
in years. We don’t need
to waste time on unnecessary and fruitless extremism that will only cost
the county money when
CSPOA’s views are challenged in court.
Vote for Ken Barnes.
He’ll enforce the law. Period.

Modoc County
Sheriff’s Blotter
May 5-12
May 5: At about 5:20 p.m., Sheriff’s Dispatch
received a call from the Likely area resident that
a subject was walking down the road waving
his arms yelling and screaming. The subject, a
white male adult wearing a blue shirt and light
pants, was heading toward the Likely Store. A
short time later the R/P called back stating the
subject lives across from the Post Office and has
found his way home. No further assistance was
needed.
May 6: About 10:42 a.m., a Sheriff’s Deputy/
Bailiff observed a subject enter the Modoc Superior Court for his court appearance. At the time
the subject appeared to be under the influence.
After the appearance, the subject was contacted
outside the courtroom by the deputy sheriff. The
subject was found to be under the influence of
an unknown substance. Arrested was John R.
Escalera, 58, of Newell; about 11:40 a.m., personnel from the Juniper Junction in Adin called
reporting a scam. A caller claiming to be associated with the IRS called demanding a payment
of $6999.32 in back taxes. The R/P determined
the call was a scam and called the Sheriff’s Office;
about 1:30 p.m., a subject, wanted on a $10,000
Trinity County Warrant, was taken into custody
in the Sheriff’s Office parking lot. Booked for
Failure to Appear was Tiffany S. Wagner, 22, of
Alturas. She was subsequently transported to
Trinity County for her court appearance; about
6:30 p.m., Dispatch received a call on Chaparral Road in Cal-Pines. The R/P reported two dirt
bikes driving through his property and tearing it
up. One subject was wearing a red suit. A Sheriff’s Deputy responded and conducted a vandalism investigation.
May 7: About 7:55 a.m., Deputies responded
to Hwy 299 across from the “Jump Scales” A severely injured black Angus cow was outside the
fence line. The cow had a severely injured right
rear hindquarter. Due to the extreme injuries
the cow was dispatched by Deputies with the
owner’s consent; about 8:15 a.m., a Likely resident reported a fraudulent use of his credit card.
The R/P’s bankcard has been used fraudulently
with two charges, one for $640.48 and the second
$598.09.The charges were from www.Lego Shop
at Home. This case is continuing for follow-up investigation; about 7 p.m., Deputies responded to
a mutual combat call at the 38000 block of Hwy
299. The investigation revealed that a battery
occurred between the mother and her juvenile
daughter. There were no visible signs of injury
and no criminal complaint desired by either party.
May 9: About 4:15 p.m., an illegal dumping
was reported on Goose Loop Dr. in the MRE. It
appears someone has been dumping in the 200
block of Goose Loop. The R/P is working with Environmental Health and the Sheriff’s Office. Extra patrol will be devoted to this area; about 6:00
p.m., Deputies attempted to execute a felony arrest warrant at Ponderosa Dr. in Lookout. Upon
initial contact deputies found that the subject
had fled on foot and was outstanding. A short
time later the subject returned and was hiding
in the residence. Deputies arrested Clinton R.
Bell, 37, of Lookout on a failure to appear warrant for possession of stolen property. Also at the
same residence a Jacqueline Blue, (aka: Webb,
aka: Williams), 47, was also taken into custody
on a Del Norte County arrest warrant; about 9
p.m., a male subject, 76, from Co. Rd. 261 in rural Alturas took his 2001 Suburban and drove
toward Alturas. The subject, who has no license,
is probably unsure as to what location he might
be heading. A local search for the vehicle and
subject was launched with multiple agencies and
with the California Highway Patrol locating him
on Main Street in Alturas, near the Bottle Shop.
The Sheriff’s Office gave the subject a ride home;
about 11:14 a.m., Deputies were dispatched to
the 37000 block of SR 299 for a reported trespass
call. The call turned out to be a landlord/tenant
dispute and all parties were advised to seek legal
advice on that matter.
May 10: About 10 a.m., Deputies responded
to a reported shots heard at the 37000 block of
Hwy 299 in rural Alturas. Supposedly tenants
were fighting over the sharing of the laundry
room. Then three shots were heard coming from
within one of the homes. Sheriff’s Deputies responded and quelled the disturbance. It was
determined that no shots were fired by the involved parties. At about 6:30 p.m., vandalism
to a political sign was reported in Lookout. A
4-by-6 foot “Yes on X and Y” sign at Co. Rd. 93
and Co. Rd. 94 was reported vandalized. Someone had used spray paint, to paint a large circle
with a line through the circle. The sign was valued at $35. Signs have also been removed from
the Lookout Post Office. Deputies advised the
R/P to report any further vandalism’s or theft.
May 11: About 12:17 a.m., Sheriff Deputies
responded to a reported possible prowler in the
see Blotter, page 4

Barnes
files
complaint
against
Locken
Ken Barnes, Alturas
Chief of Police and candidate for Modoc County
Sheriff in the June 3 election, has filed a Fair Political Practices Commission
complaint against Modoc
County Auditor/Clerk, Recorder/Registrar of Voters
Darcy Locken.
Barnes contends Locken
has violated California
codes, either by “her lack
of knowledge regarding
the voting process, or her
intentional efforts to delay
or sabotage my campaign.
She refused to allow me to
take out my original papers and delayed my campaign for a week.”
In addition, when local
citizen Roy Bell filed a
FPPC complaint against
Barnes for not filing his
campaign reporting forms
on April 29, Barnes contends Locken had not notified him as required. In
addition, she was the witness signature on Bell’s
complaint. Bell’s wife
also works for the current
Modoc County Sheriff,
Barnes’ opponent.
“After talking to a
member of the FOPPC,
I learned that Locken is
required to promptly notify me of my failure to
report, which she never
did,” Barnes said. “I do realize that I am ultimately
responsible for not filing
my 460 an 410 (forms) in
a timely manner and I will
pay stricter attention in
the future.”
Barnes has filed the required disclosure forms.

printed on the permit. The removal of fuelwood is permitted only from National Forest lands.
For more information, please call 530-233-5811.
Horses
from front page
The Forest Service should take immediate interim
steps to minimize the impacts to grazing permittees
and the ecology. Among other measures, this could include developing additional water sources to support
wild horses as well as livestock and wildlife. Adding
water infrastructure involves minimal expenditure
and can spread out use impacts from wild horses as
well as livestock and other wildlife.
•
Approval and Funding to Implement the Management Plan – The Forest Service Washington Office
and Region Five need to provide the MDF with the
funding necessary to implement the Devil’s Garden
WHT Management Plan approved in August 2013. Excess wild horses should be captured and removed in the
priority order outlined above.
•
Work to Reinstate Cooperative Program with
BLM – The agency should seek the approval of BLM
Litchfield Holding Facility to prepare the excess wild
horses removed for adoption and to offer the horses for
adoption over a six-12 month period. The BLM would
also provide the necessary expertise to provide for the
animal’s safe and humane capture.
•
Utilization of Wild Horse Handling Facilities
at the Sheldon Antelope Refuge – The Forest Service
should work with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Sheldon Antelope Refuge to leave in place the Wild
Horse working facilities that currently exist at the
Refuge near Denio, NV. These facilities are scheduled
to be torn down following the zeroing out of the wild
horses on the Refuge in the fall of 2014, but could be retained and utilized by the Forest Service. This proposal
would save money by using existing infrastructures to
care for horses.
•
New Private Holding Facilities – If it is not feasible to utilize any existing facilities, the Forest Service should solicit proposals and award contracts for
private holding facilities (not rely on BLM to prepare
excess horses for adoption). Solicitation of one or more
contracts for long-term holding facilities to humanely
care for any unadopted wild horses over the long-term
may also be necessary in order to achieve AML and
prevent further damage to the range. We are willing to
assist the Forest Service in looking for private facilities
that may be willing to provide holding services.

300 Block of BIA Route 77 on the XL Reservation in
rural Alturas. The R/P stated she heard noises outside
her residence that sounded like someone sawing on
something, but could not see anyone in the area. The
area about the residence was checked by deputies and
no one was located in the area. At about 10:05 a.m.,
the dispatch received a report of a civil dispute again
on 37000 block of S/R 299 west of Alturas. During the
investigation, deputies observed a male subject to be
under the influence of an unknown substance. The
subject was evaluated and Timothy R. Kalthoff, 53, of
Alturas was arrested for being under the influence of
a controlled substance; about 7:00 p.m., Dispatch received a trespass call at the 37000 block of Hwy 299 in
rural Alturas. A previous arrestee was back harassing
the R/P. Subject was intoxicated and screaming at the
R/P, that they had caused him to go to jail. Two Deputies responded and quelled the disturbance.

Nursing Facility (Warnerview) has been upgraded to four stars (out
of five possible) by the
state for quality and is
rated three-star overall.
The accounts receivable days have also fallen from about 100 to 69
days. MMC has a goal
of getting that down to
55 days, and Kramer
believes that’s in their
sights. He said their
statement process has
improved but there are
areas where struggles
continue.
He also said the hospital is doing well on the
Medicare, MediCal front
and is making good progress on incentive payments for meaningful
use.
MMC is also looking
forward to expanding its
general surgery capabilities. Cataract Surgery
is on track to be available by Dr. Mark Fay, of
Klamath Falls, in June.
Other surgery offerings

agenda is relocating the
Physical Therapy Department to a bigger and more
acceptable location. Kramer believes the current
negotiations with a local
landowner should be completed in the near future.
One of the big issues facing the hospital remaining
is physician recruitment.
It’s very difficult to find,
much less attract a general practitioner to this
area. It’s not just affecting
here; Kramer said, there is
an acute shortage of family practice doctors nationwide.
Overall, said Kramer,
the hospital is keeping its

still experiencing patient

are working to improve
the overall service and attitude of the staff to attract
and convince the public to

Special to the Record
As part of their Outdoor Education
classes at the Modoc National Wildlife
Refuge, students from the Alturas and
Surprise Valley schools are learning to
connect with nature.
As part of their Outdoor Education
classes and under the guidance of Amy
Hartell, Recreation officer for the Modoc
National Forest, and Lorissa Soriano,
program coordinator, the students are
recreating the special things that are
available to be enjoyed in the South War-
ner Wilderness.
As part of the celebration of the 50th
anniversary of the Wilderness Act a
Warner Mountain Wilderness Gateway is being built by the students. The
Gateway measures eight feet by 16 feet
and features many special places to see
in the wilderness.
“We want to connect these children
to nature and show them what is practically in their backyard,” said Soriano.

Although Alturas is seeing some
exciting possibilities on the horizon, which
would benefit our citizens and business
community, there are financial challenges
facing local government. Therefore it is
important for the City of Alturas to
continue to have council members who are:
1. Knowledgeable in operation of
government finance;
2. Fiscally conservative;
3. Vigilant in the protection of City revenues.
JOHN DEDERICK has brought to the City
Council his valuable experience in local
government and his responsible and
conservative approach to fiscal management.

• A professional law enforcement agency that operates with integrity

one of the safest counties in America.
• A leader in the field of law enforcement, innovative leadership and
management, and training, while forging alliances in regional,
state and national professional law enforcement associations.
• A learning organization that continuously reviews its procedures,
operations and policies with the focus on its mission, values,
principles and vision in serving the people of Modoc County.
• A law enforcement agency that provides leadership in bringing all
law enforcement together in Modoc County to work as a team
with the shared purpose of keeping Modoc County safe.
• A department that is fully integrated into the Modoc County government
team, working in partnership with other departments, municipal
governments, school districts, community organizations and news
media.
• An organization that epitomizes "servant leadership" and treats all
people with dignity and respect.
• An organization that strives to foster citizen respect for the rule of law
and not fear of heavy-handed or unfair enforcement.
• An organization that is continuously conducting contingency planning
to prepare for future law enforcement needs, natural disasters,
and homeland security emergencies.
• A law enforcement agency that is a leader in educating citizens and
nurturing public awareness, promoting safety, crime prevention
and the building of stronger communities.
• A law enforcement agency built on integrity, trust, mutual respect
and family values.
“It is only obvious that the current sheriff lacks the experience
and training needed to properly manage a complex agency like
the Sheriff’s Department. This is why he has increased his
administration and has not increased patrol. The leadership style
of the current sheriff is bullying. When you have a management
style like this, it breeds bullying. Modoc County can’t afford
another four years of this type of leadership.”
Ken Barnes has the experience and training necessary to properly
and efficiently manage the Modoc County Sheriff’s Department.

Obituary
Garden Club Plant Sale
Lois traveled to Spain as a chaperone with the MHS senior class many years ago and traveled to Alaska with
her family around 1990. She enjoyed fishing and camping with her family and riding horses.
She was a woman of deep caring, intelligence and
toughness. Lois was a loving mother, grandmother and
wife. We will all dearly miss ‘Mom,’ ‘Nana,’ ‘Annie,’
‘Lois Ann.’ A more loving and caring soul you could not
find. She was the tender Rock of our family and led us
all by her quiet example.
Lois was preceded in death by her loving parents
Robert and Audrey Wickenden. She is survived by her
husband of 25 years, John Freeman, Alturas; son Tim
McConnell (Susan) of Colorado Springs, CO; daughter Kristen (Clay) Montgomery, Chester, CA; brother
Robert (Dian) Wickenden, Tonopah, NV; five grandchildren, two greatgrandchildren, numerous nephews/nieces and many other friends. In lieu of flowers,
please donate to one of the local 4-H clubs in support of
our local youth. We thank all of our family and friends
for their support and generosity during these difficult
times. Particular thanks to the staff of Modoc Medical
Center for their wonderful care of Lois and her family.
Services will be private.

Obituary
Obituary
Florance Laxague
Former Cedarville resident Florance Laxague
passed away on April 30,
2014 after a short illness
at St. Mary’s Hospital in
Reno, Nevada. She was
93 years old. She was born
Florance Martin in Aitkin
township Minnesota on
March 21, 1921.
She moved from Minnesota to Surprise Valley,
California with her small
daughter, Georgia in the
late 30’s. There she met
and married Peter Laxague, in 1944, who was
raising three young sons FLORANCE LAXAGUE
on his own. With Pete,
they owned and operated a variety of businesses before
starting and successfully operating the Surprise Valley
Lumber Company for many years.
In addition to raising a family of four, Florance developed a variety of skills, including waitressing, operating Surprise Valley’s first telephone switchboard and
their soda fountain. She finally acquired the nickname
“Road Runner” from running errands for the mill.
After tragically losing her daughter, Georgia to cancer
at age 16, she continued a lifelong friendship with Georgia’s high school friends including Patricia Little, Jim
Wilson and Martha Ohe.
Eventually, she and Pete turned the operation of the
mill over to their three sons Bill, Buddy and Ronald and
retired to Reno. They loved to travel and vacationed all
over the United States, Canada and Mexico. Florance
who now preferred the name “Suzie,” loved people and
loved to stay busy, so she continued working over the
years, as a waitress for a variety of Reno area restaurants.
She loved to knit and crochet and supplied senior centers, retirement homes, family and friends with hundreds of knitted slippers each year.
Florance was a devout Catholic and enjoyed a special
relationship with The Sisters of our Lady of Mountain
Carmel in Reno. She was especially close to Sister Mary
Drzewiecki. She was also religious about watching her
soap operas (Bold and the Beautiful and Days of our
Lives), so much so, that she referred to it as her “Holy
Hour”!
Florance had a large and loving family, both in Surprise Valley and in the Reno area. She was fortunate
to live with and enjoy the care and constant companionship of her great-granddaughter Heather Icard, husband Darrin and daughter Mackenzie, lovingly assisted
by granddaughter Diane Hair and husband Ron.
She was preceded in death by her husband Peter
Laxague, daughter Roberta Georgia Laxague, sons William and Buddy Laxague, father Joseph Custer Martin,
mother Addie May Babcock, stepfather Chester Davis,
siblings Clifford Martin, Chauncey Martin and Lester
Martin.
She is survived by son Ronald Laxague, nephew Pat
Martin, grandchildren Diane Hair, Martin Laxague,
Michele Turner, Susan Hill, Joan Grover, Laura Minto,
William Laxague, Jr., Mary Hironymous, Cathy Laxague and 16 great-grandchildren and 11 great-great
grandchildren.
She will be missed by sister-in-law Faye Harrington
and her daughter Suzanne Harrington Cole, Godson
Dennis Golden, a multitude of friends and especially by
her beloved canine buddy, Bo.
At Florance’s request no funeral will be held. A memorial service is planned for Surprise Valley at a date
to be announced.

• No, Mike does not want to raise your taxes. Mike was asked
to bring funding options to the board. The VLF increase information was specifically asked for numerous times during
budget hearings over several years. Mike finally put the info
together as requested; the Board did their job by setting up
public hearings. The public was not in favor, so the board rejected the item. Quite frankly, I believe they got it right. End

Board approved. A year later they tried to restructure the
Office again for the Sheriff, demanding specific cuts to personnel. He requested a dollar figure, they refused. He stood
his ground. The lawsuit was only averted due to the Sheriff’s
efforts and the staffs willingness to sacrifice in order to save

GLADYS VAN SLYKE
to Modoc, in Alturas. During her 20-year marriage to
Norman, Gladys had four children. She was known as
a very kind-hearted, patient person, a dedicated hard
worker who could always give an encouraging word
along with a smile that sparkled in her eyes. Gladys
always maintained a positive outlook on her life. She
worked seemingly tirelessly for many years as a custodian in Modoc schools and later at Alturas City Hall,
always after hours. Gladys was a person someone could
always count on. She paid attention to what was going
on in her community.
Gladys will be dearly missed and leaves her four
children and their families son Michael Van Slyke of
Klamath Falls, OR; son Steve Van Slyke and son Dave
Van Slyke both of Alturas and daughter Catherine Van
Slyke of Indiana. She also leaves five grandchildren.
Her brother and sister preceded her in death. Norman
died in 1998.
Gladys was respected, liked and well known in the
Alturas community for 40 years. She passed away at
the age of 87 on March 26, 2014 after several years in
long-term care. Her memorial service was held at Kerr
Mortuary in Alturas on March 30, 2014.

This year’s Children’s Fair will again sponsor a Dog
Show open to pets and their owners. Sign your dog up
for the special event. Meet at the green field east of the
gym at Modoc High School at 9:30 a.m. to register.
Five different contests are slated. Choose which you

unusual costume and most original costume. The contests will be followed by a small dog race, which requires
two people and one dog.
Ribbons will be awarded for the Best Dog of the Show,
best look-alike and best costume on the dog. High Plateau Humane Society will provide a basket of goodies to
the winners of the other contests.
All dogs must be on a leash and each owner is responsible for their dogs waste. In other words, bring along
a plastic sack for any dog poop. Dogs should be current
with their vaccinations and no small, unvaccinated puppies please, stipulate organizers.
Once the show is over and prizes awarded, Mike Poindexter will bring a drug-sniffing canine to demonstrate
her skills. If all goes well, there also may be an agility
demonstration by those who are attending monthly dog

Kids’ Fair
For young children, Modoc Child Care Resources and
Referral will sponsor a fishing booth and activities table
and a huge sandbox with buried treasures to locate. A
Discovery area organized by Head Start is a favorite of
the younger set. The balloon artist will entertain kids
and a magician will show off her tricks.
A dime toss, another fishing booth, a toy booth, a bean
bag toss, three bounce houses, Olympic baseball and
face painting are all meant to amuse the kids. A Fire
Prevention game, “May I pet your dog” demo, a dental
screening and vision test and a visit to the veterinarian
are all informative booths for those who want to learn a
little more. Musical chairs will be part of another booth.
Two major activities, a Dog Show free to both young
and old and the Olympic games are open to all participants. Sign up for the Dog Show at 9:30 a.m. and the
Olympic games begin at 1 p.m. in the grassy area east of
the gym. Some of the games are: El Bolero from Mexico,
Oba from Columbia, gunny sack race from the U. S. and
capture the flag from Europe. All who participate in the
games will earn a Modoc Buck that can be used as cash
at the fair.
Emergency vehicles will be on display along East
Street. A variety of demonstrations will take place inside the gym including kite making, archaeology, making friendship bracelets and making an origami paper
crane as a world-wide peace gesture.

thing for everyone to make it a fun-filled family event
that has become a tradition in Modoc. The weather may
be hot, so be prepared with hats, shade and sunscreen.
The theme this year is “Olympic Games around the
World.” A set of relay games for participants start at 1
p.m. in the grassy area east of the gym. Plan to organize a team and participate for the traditional Olympic
medals going to the winners. Booths decorated on that
theme will take first, second and third prizes.
A long list of booths sponsored by local organizations
will entertain, feed, amuse and educate fair-goers. Thirty-five booths will feature a low cost or free snack or
food, with hamburgers by SunRays of Hope and Polish
sausages on a stick by Modoc Sheriff’s Posse. Warner
Mountain Group Home brings an Olympic Coliseum
with games, and ice cream. Cotton candy, strawberry
shortcake, mini sandwiches, popcorn, corndogs, tamales, tacos, snow cones – you name it, a booth will have it.
Entertainment on the main stage will include Rogue
Radio band with other time slots filled by a drug sniffing dog at 11 a.m. and a drumming group. During the
morning a popular Trash into Treasures is a chance for
kids to create something from very little. Modoc Bucks
will be given to the best creation.

City voters asked to approve public safety funds.
Voters in the City of Alturas are being asked to
approve Measure K, which would add one-half
cent to the state sales tax, which would be used
only for public safety in the city.
The Alturas City Council placed the issue on the
ballot at the request of Alturas Chief of Police
Ken Barnes and Fire Chief Keith Jacques, both
of who see a shortage of funds currently to meet
the community’s needs.
The issue needs a two-thirds majority to pass on
Nov. 4. The state sales tax is now at 7.25 percent,
and if Measure K is approved, the sales tax in
the city would go up. It is estimated that about
$200,000 would be raised annually for the city.

Dear Editor:
Once again the clouds of cocoa have cleared, and the
clash of the chocolate titans has come to an end at the
4th Annual - Dr. Roberts Fund - Chocolate Wars. Kerry
Davis dominated this event - winning the Grand Prize
and the title of Chief Chocolatier with her Chocolate
Decadence Cake.
Chocolate Wars was a sweet success thanks to the creative cooks who stirred, beat, mixed, baked, frosted, and
decorated the most decadently delicious desserts any
diner has ever dared to digest. Please check out our ad
in next week’s paper for a complete listing of all of the
sponsors, donors, and other contributors that made this
event so spectacular.
I also want to personally thank all of the valiant volunteers, generous judges, supportive sponsors, gracious
grocers, accomplished auctioneers, and most of all – the
hungry hordes whose quintessential cocoa cravings
hopefully have been quenched until we search for the
next Immaculate Confection at the 5th Annual Chocolate Wars on May 9, 2015 – the day before Mother’s Day.

“Stigma and discrimination are long-standing issues
within the mental health community: The need to address these issues and influence behaviors has never
been more important.” (California Department of Mental Health).
One in four American adults live with a diagnosable
mental illness in a given year, but many of them are
afraid to reach out for the help they need. “A New State
of Mind: Ending the Stigma of Mental Illness” features
just a few of the millions of Californians who are refusing to stay silent while untreated mental illness takes
an unnecessary toll on our families and communities.
Through their stories, viewers can see that mental
health challenges are more common than they think,
that they can be managed, and that recovery is possible.
This grant award provides means to reach out to our
community with valuable information regarding mental health stigma…and an opportunity to “Envision
Change.”

OPEN LETTER TO THE RESIDENTS OF MODOC COUNTY
We are voting for Mike Poindexter for Modoc County Sheriff because he has surpassed “SAYING” he supports the Bill of Rights and the US Constitution,
he has proven it! All elected officials swear an oath to defend the US Constitution, but most have lied to us, and now strong principled leaders must stand
up and prove they are Constitutional, not just say it. Mike has “PROVEN” it by his actions.
Sheriff Poindexter stands with our Founding Fathers, against an over-bearing Federal bureaucracy. He took on the United States Forest Service after the
devastating Barry Point (Goose Lake) Fire in August 2012, in an attempt to prevent a long lasting and devastating effect as well as the financial loss to the
county as seen with the Blue Lake Fire in August 2001 and the Fletcher Fire of July 2007 wherein the burnt timber was ruined because the Forest Service
failed to do their paperwork in a timely manner.
Our Sheriff sees his job as encompassing the Health, Safety and Welfare of all Modoc citizens. By trying to get the USFS to do their job, Mike was ensuring the safety and welfare of the citizens of Modoc. As the Sheriff and Director of Emergency Services, he authored an “Emergency Proclamation” that
WAS SUPPORTED AND SIGNED BY THE Board of Supervisors (BOS). Our Sheriff did all he could do to stop the USFS from failing to do their duties
as historically proven with the other two fires. The USFS is supposed to follow their very own studies, policies and directives…..AND WORK WITH THE
COUNTY!
Again, last year, Federal, State, Environmental and animal extremists tried to stop the coyote hunt in Big Valley, and Sheriff Poindexter stood up to them
and allowed the legal hunt to go forward. He has seen to the FEMA training of over 500 County employees and citizen volunteers (ICS, NIMS, SIMS) to
better assist in case of local emergencies. He has established an effective neighborhood watch program in almost every township within the county of
400 volunteers. Mike has set up sorely lacking policies and procedures to increase the professionalism of our sheriffs department. He followed the Board
of Supervisors (BOS) direction (even though it’s their job) to obtain additional funding through whatever means are available. When the state made new
legislation to obtain additional funding, he was told to investigate it, he did. When he presented his findings to the BOS in a public forum, the same BOS
that told Mr. Poindexter to get more funding, then told him NOT TO RAISE TAXES, as per Rick Holloway, who berated him publicly for doing what he was
told to do. Also, a BOS member informed us, that what was reported WAS NOT WHAT HAPPENED. So Mike is damned if he does and damned if he
doesn’t.
Sheriff Poindexter further stands for “We the People”, the way our Founders intended, to enforce the Constitution. The Constitution was NOT written to
control us the people, but to rein in the power of the Federal Government, as per the 10th Amendment. Mike supports all of the Constitutional Amendments, not just the ones that are politically advantageous.
Sheriff Poindexter took another step and joined, helped draft, and signed a declaration of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association
(CSPOA) to show what he believed IN WRITING. He knew he would be criticized, he knew he would be subject to public scrutiny and ridicule, as the
Modoc County Record so bluntly and erroneously did. But Sheriff Poindexter did it anyway.
Two other County Sheriffs’ who signed the declaration that supports only legal laws that DID NOT conflict with the Constitution, were immediately attacked
by government agencies. One was arrested and cleared, the other had his Peace Officers powers removed, (by none other than liberal Vice President
Biden’s son, the State Attorney General of Delaware), and the other is judicially pending. Why are Holloway and Barnes afraid of a group of Law enforcement Managers who actually support the Constitution?
Sheriff Poindexter doesn’t re-interpret the Constitution to mean what he wants it to mean, he reads it to mean what it says. He is willing to be targeted by
liberals who do not like our Constitution and want to re-interpret it to mean what they want it to mean. Our Sheriff is willing to take a stand, despite the
costs.
What is the agenda of these publishers, and political people? Is it Agenda 21, or making the Modoc Plateau a National Park (As had been suggested
by environmental groups, to control our water), shouldn’t ALL ELECTED POLITICIANS SUPPORT AND ACTUALLY DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION?
How many other elected officials can you think of that are actually willing to take a personal hit to stand up for the founding fathers principle of a smaller
controlled federal government? Mike has saved this county $200,000 during his fours years in office for refusing to take benefits and perks. Would Ken
Barnes do the same? Would the BOS do the same? Would Rick Holloway do the same?
As a former US Marine, a former CHP Officer and currently the Sheriff, Mike has served All Americans, All Californians and All Modoc’ers by being willing
to put his life and reputation on the line. His father and son were/are also former US Marines and law enforcement officers.
Poindexter talks the talk and walks the walk. He’s not a politician, but the real deal. He is working for you, not for himself. By joining the Constitutional
Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, Mike boldly stood up against an over-bearing, bloated, over-powering, overly taxing, inept, in debt, federal government. He is walking a different path than Ken Barnes, not because it’s easy, but because it the right thing to do!!! Mike is focused on the future of our
inalienable God given rights as set forth by our founding fathers.
PS: For those of us that know Mr. Holloway, the Owner and Editor of the Modoc County Record, who is pushing his agenda in the paper, shouldn’t we be
running in the opposite direction of what he is supporting?
Signed Tom and Lisa Parnow, Richard Lash, Todd and Sue Ehlinger, David Hinze, Dave and Rose Jacquot, Mark Bishop, Monte Hinze, Tony Macera, and many
other citizens who are afraid of political retribution.

Valley are busy building a model of the world-recordholding Washoe Pine that is found on the Modoc National Forest. Their tree and a huge “diorama gateway”
sign constructed by students from Alturas and Cedarville will be on display at the Modoc Outdoor Recreation
and Tourisms Outdoor Expo to be held on June 21, 22
at the Desert Rose Event Center.
One of the most unique trees growing in the South
Warner Wilderness Area is the very rare and world
record holding champion Washoe Pine. The National
Registry of Big Trees lists its circumference at 243
inches and height at 145 feet. Although this tree holds
the world’s record, it is believed there are other Washoe
Pines in the wilderness that would surpass this figure,
but haven’t been recorded yet.
Washoe Pine occurs in three mountain ranges on the
western rim of the Great Basin in northeastern Cali-
fornia and northwestern Nevada. Some are found on
the east slopes of Mount Rose, Nevada, and can be
found in small stands in the southern Warner Mountains and in the Bald Mountain range of northeastern California.
This record holding Washoe pine has been described as a knarly looking tree and is located in the
Parsnip Basin and Poison Flat areas in the South
Warner Wilderness.
This tree is one of the special trees being recognized by the local U.S. Forest Service office in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Wilderness
Act that preserves such areas for the American public to enjoy.
After the Modoc Outdoor Expo, the Gateway sign
and diorama will go on tour in northern California to
promote tourism in Modoc County.

finished his season with an 89 at this tournament.
He struggled on the front nine with a 50, but rebounded very well on the back nine

putts close. He hit the ball well, particularly on the back nine, but would

Use of food stamps rises in Modoc County; up to 10.4 percent
By Emily Guerin and Tim Marema
The use of food stamps in Modoc County increased
during the recession, assisting families in stretching
their food dollars, contributing to local spending and
helping spark a national debate about the future of
the federal nutrition program.
The proportion of Modoc County residents receiving food stamps hit 10.4 percent in 2011, according to
the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and
Nutrition Services. That’s an increase of 2.4 percentage points since 2007, the year the recession started.
Across California, 10.4 percent of residents in 2011
received support from the Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program (SNAP), as the food stamp program is officially known. Nationally, 14.8 percent of
the population receives SNAP benefits.
Places like Modoc County, which are located outside
metropolitan areas, tend to have a higher percentage
of the population receiving SNAP benefits. That’s because incomes are generally lower in non-metropolitan counties.
The inflation-adjusted median household income in
Modoc County in 2011 was $35,892, compared to the
California median of $59,320 and the national median of $52,306 (in 2013 dollars).
Food stamps may play a larger role in the local economy in rural areas and small towns, according to federal
data. In Modoc County SNAP benefits are .1 percent of
personal income. Nationally, the figure is 0.6 percent.
In 2011, residents of Modoc County received a combined $1,657,141 in SNAP benefits. The USDA reports
that each $5 in SNAP benefits generates $9.20 in spending.
SNAP benefits start to circulate in the economy
quickly. Participants spend nearly all their food stamps
within one month of receipt, according to a study by the
University of New Hampshire Carsey Institute.
Grocers say they feel the impact of SNAP and other
USDA nutrition programs like Women, Infants and
Children (WIC).
“Without SNAP and WIC, we wouldn’t be able to
make it,” wrote the owner of the Mill City Market in the
small town of Mill City, Ore., in a survey of rural grocers conducted by the Oregon Food Bank and Kansas
State University Rural Grocery Initiative.
Owners know they have to stock the shelves to prepare
for more business when SNAP benefits hit the streets,
said David Procter with the Rural Grocery Initiative.
It’s not just the mom-and-pop stores that see a bump
from food-stamp spending in small towns and rural areas. Walmart reported in a recent Securities and Ex-
Modoc Forest campgrounds to open soon
Campgrounds across the Forest are scheduled to open for Memorial Day weekend, except for those in the Medicine Lake area. Those campgrounds are scheduled to open for the July 4th weekend.
Most of the campgrounds on the Warner Mountain, Devil’s Garden and Big Valley Ranger Districts are now
accessible to vehicle traffic. Changes in weather conditions may cause some of the more remote campgrounds to
be inaccessible.
Please check conditions prior to traveling to these sites and use caution, as the roads are still soft. Vehicles
pulling trailers often have early season issues and may be difficult to maneuver or create resource damage in the
more remote campgrounds.
Blue Lake, Mill Creek, Soup Springs and Howard’s Gulch have drinking water available. Willow Creek Campground and the day use area will not have potable water until after Memorial Day weekend. Fees are $12 to $14
per night. Please check campground fee stations for current water advisories.
change Commission filing that a decrease in SNAP
benefits last year could affect the retail giant’s bottom
line.
Average SNAP benefits nationally fell about $30 a
month per family in November after a temporary increase that was part of the 2009 economic stimulus
package. More funding decreases are on the way.
Food stamps have been part of the farm bill for the
past 50 years. The legislation’s combination of farming and nutrition programs has helped ensure the bill
receives broad backing from farm-country representatives and more urban-based members who support
anti-poverty programs.
That alliance was tested but held with the passage of
the 2014 farm bill.
Data for this article came from USDA Food and Nutrition Services, the Bureau of Economic Analysis and

Service. Funding for this report came from the W.K.
Kellogg Foundation and the John S. and James L.

last five holes of the day at even par. He birdied the
last two holes (a two putt birdie on 17 and sinking a 75
foot putt on 18).
The qualifying individual score for NorCals was a 78.
“It’s been an enjoyable season and I am proud of
what we accomplished as well as hopeful to see the
growth we can make leading into next season,” said
coach Harold Montague.

Properly charged refrigerant traveling through your air
conditioning system not only cools your home, but cools
and lubricates your compressor. Running low on refrigerant
not only drops efficiency, it can cause damage to your

Although very difficult at times, I am
determined to run my campaign with
integrity. Politics can be nasty; I don’t
believe it needs to be. My record at the
Sheriff’s Office stands on its own. I am
extremely proud of the hard work and
many accomplishments made, we have
come a long way. No one can tarnish or
take that away. Being your Sheriff is a big
job, demands don’t go on hold during the
election process. I have a job to do and
simply do not have the time for all of this
political rhetoric. I am not a politician, or
a “yes” man and simply will not tell you
what I think you want to hear. It’s simple folks, the decision is yours; if you’re
unhappy with the current service of the
Sheriff’s Office, please come see me, my
door is always open. We have been very
busy building a Sheriff’s Office we can
all be proud of, if you agree; cast your

Snow didn’t stop
the sweet wars
Despite a sudden blizzard that blew into the valley
just as judges met to determine the winners, the 4th
Annual Chocolate Wars was, by all accounts, a sweet
success!
The day’s vanquishers engaged in many well-fought
culinary battles and a final roster of worthy cooks and
pastry chefs emerged victorious.
“When a car went off the road on Cedar Pass in the
storm, two judges coming from Alturas were able to
provide support for the driver until help arrived,” reported organizer Diana Dix. “We did a little last minute rearranging and they arrived in time for the second round of judging.”
Dix assembled an impressive line-up of supporting
generals to help with the event. Sandy Stevenson and
Andy Camacho were the day’s auctioneers. Despite
the tumultuous weather outdoors, Diana Milton made
sure the judging went smoothly. Mary Alice Sandstrom coordinated with a small army of servers who
offered guests an unending array of chocolate nibbles
and blissful bites. Linda Schultz ran the registration
and score keeping table while Doug Schultz manned
the raffle table and took care of all the auction paperwork.
“Our set up crew did a fantastic job decorating,” added Dix (who also helped). “Many thanks to Juana, Isabel and Sarah Juarez, Hemma Rangel, Rebeca Lopez,
Elizabeth Lopez-Rangel, Cindy and Miranda Linker,
Doug and Linda Schultz, Carol Willett and Jerry Minto.”
Dix, who conceived of and has served as Supreme
Commander of Chocolate Wars for all four years,
added that the day’s clean-up crew deserves medals
as well. “The 4-H kids and parents helped tear everything down including the tables and chairs. I want to
give a huge thank you to Dianna Lopez, Rebeca Lopez, Gaby Castillo and Ofelia Contreras who finished
cleaning the dance hall.”

BIG SAVERS THRIFT STORE
Tickets are now available for the 38th Annual Fort
Bidwell Barbecue, which will take place on the Sunday
of Memorial Day weekend, May 25 in beautiful “downtown” Fort Bidwell!
Save a few dollars by purchasing pre-sale tickets at
Page’s Market, The Corner Store and Brushworx Salon
in Cedarville or at Seab’s True Value in Alturas.
Buying early will save $3 off the gate price of $15 for
adults. Children 6-12 are $8 and those five and younger will get a free hot dog meal at the event that runs
from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. next to the Civic Club on Main
Street.
For almost four decades now, “The Barbecue” has
kicked off Surprise Valley’s summer season of events
that all feature great outdoor grilling, needed fundraising and the socializing we all crave after a long winter.
Since its inception, this celebration is known for offering up some of the region’s best sizzling sirloin steaks,
barrel-roasted chicken and all the trimmings while
raising critical funds for the town’s all-volunteer fire
department.
The first Memorial weekend Barbecue was held in
1976, commemorating the centennial of Fort Bidwell’s
historic general store built by Irvin Ayres in 1876. That
store, known as Lowell’s, was last owned by Harold and
Ruby Ascherman who changed the name to the “Fort
Bidwell General Store.” Beyond celebrating the town’s
history, they conceived the idea of a barbecue to assist
their growing fire department.
Others instrumental in establishing this local tradition were Ham Scarr, Dr. Keller and “Tiny” Waldon
Baker, according to the historians of the Fort Bidwell
Civic Club.
“From the very beginning, our members worked side
by side with the founders and the local volunteer firemen to put on the annual affair,” said the Civic Club’s
Beth Tozier. “Over the years, thanks to all the hard work
and generosity of those supporting this fundraiser, the
various fire chiefs have been able to buy an impressive
amount of crucial equipment to support their departments’ firefighting efforts.”
The very first year of the barbecue, a local rancher donated an entire steer for the day’s raffle. In subsequent
years, that honor was passed from rancher to rancher
while the Aschermans provided almost all the food that
was served. There were years when it wasn’t unusual
for the hosts to serve up to 2,000 people.
For the 2014 event, organizers have already been out,
roaming far and wide to collect useful, valuable and
downright amazing raffle prizes. Tickets are only $1
each or six for $5. Prizes include a Grand Prize of 60
pounds of sirloin steaks, wrapped and 40 pounds of sirloin for the day’s runner-up.
But what’s a day at the Civic Club’s lovely landscaped
grounds without some
fun for the children and
young at heart? This year
there’ll be sack races, a
watermelon-eating contest and all kinds of “oldfashioned” fun.
Everyone will enjoy
checking out the vendor
area where individual
crafters and artisans join
with Modoc’s non-profit
organizations displaying
items of interest and souvenirs for sale.
Space is allotted on a
“first come, first served”
basis; therefore potential vendors should call
Mikie Royer (530) 2792229 or Carol Benner at
(530) 640-0643 to reserve

LEGAL NOTICE
NOTICE
OF
PETITION TO ADMINISTER
ESTATE OF Esther A.
Lemke.
CASE NUMBER: PR-14005
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent
creditors, and persons who
may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or
both, of: Esther A. Lemke;
Esther Lemke, deceased.
A Petition for Probate
has been filed by: Carl L.
Lemke in the Superior
Court of California, County of: Modoc.
The Petition for Probate
requests that: Carl L.
Lemke be appointed as
personal
representative
to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests the
decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted
to probate. The will and
any codicils are available
for examination in the file
kept by the court.
The petition requests
authority to administer
the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This
authority will allow the
personal representative to
take many actions without
obtaining court approval.
Before taking certain very
important actions, however, the personal representative will be required
to give notice to interested
persons unless they have
waived notice or have consented to the proposed
action.) The independent
administration authority
will be granted unless an
interested person files an
objection to the petition
and shows good cause why
the court should not grant
the authority.
A hearing on the petition
will be held in this court
as follows: June 9, 2014 at
10:00 a.m.
Address of court: Superior Court of California,
County of Modoc, 205 S.
East Street, Alturas, CA
96101.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you
should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or
by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or
contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file
your claim with the court
and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within four months from the
date of the first issuance of
letters as provided in Probate Code section 9100.
The time for filing claims
will not expire before four
months from the hearing
date noticed above.
You may examine the file
kept by the court. If you
are a person interested
in the estate, you may file
with the court a Request
for Special Notice (form
DE-154) of the filing of an
inventory and appraisal
of estate assets or of any
petition or account as
provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request
for Special Notice form is
available from the court
clerk.

BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this
property lien, you should
understand that there are
risks involved in bidding

not on the property itself.
Placing the highest bid at
a trustee auction does not
automatically entitle you
to free and clear ownership of the property. You
should also be aware that
the lien being auctioned
off may be a junior lien.
If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are
or may be responsible for
paying off all liens senior
to the lien being auctioned
off, before you can receive
clear title to the property.
You are encouraged to investigate the existence,
priority and size of outstanding liens that may
exist on this property by
contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either
of which may charge you a
fee for this information. If
you consult either of these
resources, you should be
aware that the same lender may hold more than one
mortgage or deed of trust
on the property. NOTICE
TO PROPERTY OWNER:
The sale date shown on
this notice of sale may be

requires that information
about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the pub-

not present at the sale. If
you wish to learn whether
your sale date has been

IMPORTANT NOTICE
TO VOTERS
The Lassen County Sample Ballot and Voter Information Pamphlet for the
upcoming June 3rd Primary Election contains a
page that was incorrectly
printed.
The “Rebuttal to Argument Against Measures
X and Y” on page 18/8,
contains content that was
incorrectly inserted by the
printer. We apologize for
any confusion and inconvenience this may have
caused and want the voters to know the error is being corrected at the printer’s expense.
The corrected content is
printed below:
ARGUMENT IN
FAVOR OF
MEASURES X AND Y
We live in an isolated
area. Current ambulance
response time is unacceptable. During extreme
weather conditions, air
and ground ambulance
arrival may be extended even longer. Lack of
available ground or air
ambulance resources from
Legals
continued
on pg 23
MODOC COUNTY
RECORD
Legals
continued
from pg 22
outside our area further
complicates the issue.
The formation of the
Southern Cascades Community Services District
(CSD) is essential to secure financial stability
and local control for an
advanced life support ambulance service.
Passage of measures X
and Y will re-establish
a timely ambulance response, providing lifesaving treatment and transport.
A locally elected volunteer CSD board will have
the responsibility of the
ambulance service administration,
procurement
and maintenance of equipment, and training and
certification of personnel.
Property owners within
the boundaries of the CSD
will pay a special tax of
$65.00 per parcel annually
with a two parcel cap per
unique property owner.
This special tax will never
be increased without twothirds approval by voters
within the district. All
taxes received will go directly to the CSD for operational expenses.
This measure is supported by law Enforcement
agencies, medical facilities and other emergency
service agencies of Modoc
and Lassen counties
A YES vote on both
measures, X and Y will
return locally controlled
Advanced Life Support
Ambulance services to our
communities.
/s/ Valerie Endicott
/s/ Clinton Davis
/s/ Sheila Conner
ARGUMENT AGAINST
MEASURES X AND Y
At the outset, we compliment the Committee
that has worked hard on
this measure. Hard work
aside, it is our position
that a wrong conclusion
has been reached. Consider these facts.
SCCSD Statement of Justification: “The territory
within the Big Valley area
is in need of Ambulance
and Emergency Medical
Services since said services no longer exist.”
FACT: Ambulance and
Emergency Medical Services do already exist for
Big Valley. Transport ambulance service and Advance Life Support (ALS)
comes from either Alturas
or Fall River. First Response & Basic Life Support are provided by local
fire districts. The SCCSD
would be a duplication of
services.
SCCSD will “provide local community education
in Emergency Response
Care and Safety Training.”
FACT: This training is
already provided by Modoc
Medical Center, including
citizen training for First
Aid and CPR.
SCCSD proposes a first
year budget of $356,000.
$221,000 would be raised
through a new tax of
$65.00 upon all unique
property owners in the
service district leaving a
balance of $135,000 which
would come from transport services.
FACT: Transport service
revenue is based upon an
inaccurate estimate of ambulance runs which could
result in a severe revenue
shortfall.
FACT:
$221,000 (or
more) coming from us!
How can we bear such
a burdensome tax for a
duplication of services?
What about an even higher future rate (no proposed
limit)?
FACT: A local ambulance will not mean a free
ambulance ride. All ambulance services involve
standard charges (approx.
$2,800 per ride).
FACT: In Lassen & Modoc counties there are
866 registered voters who
can vote on this measure,
while there are 3,400 taxable parcels. A vast majority of landowners will have
no vote! This is clearly
a classic case of taxation
without representation.
Vote NO on X (district)
and Y (tax).
/s/ Lin Erickson
/s/ Gary Monchamp
/s/ Nancy Monchamp
/s/ Linda Moore
REBUTTAL TO
ARGUMENT AGAINST
MEASURES X AND Y
Advanced Life Support
(ALS) Ambulance does not
exist in Big Valley. The
current situation is meant
to be temporary.
An Advance Life Support
Ambulance is an emergency room on wheels.
The people of Mayers Memorial Hospital District
and the Last Frontier
Health Care District pay
a tax to have ambulance
service. Fire Districts do
not provide Advanced Life
Support Transport. The
SCCSD ambulance would
provide a timely response
to our area.
Some training has been
provided by Modoc Medical
Center, However Emergency Medical Technician
and Advanced Emergency
Medical Technician training has not been provided
in Big Valley for several
years. Employers in our
area, the public pool,
schools as well as the ambulance service itself need
much more training.
The fiscal year ending
June 30, 2011 resulted
in 167 billable transports
of patients. Modoc Sheriff records from March
2012-March 2013, show
the ambulance responded
to 180 calls in Big Valley
and surrounding areas.
The tax burden of $65.00
per parcel equates to less
than $6.00 per month.
What is one life saved
worth?
Taxes CANNOT be increased without a 2/3 voter approval.
There is no duplication of
service!
The federal and state
constitutions
establish
who can vote. Any person can live in our area
and register to vote here.
Restore our community
ambulance services which
were established in 1949.
VOTE YES ON
MEASURES X AND Y!
/s/ Valerie Endicott
/s/ Sheila Conner
/s/ Clinton Davis
REBUTTAL TO
ARGUMENT IN
FAVOR OF
MEASURES X AND Y
Let’s be clear. We already have ALS ambulance services for Big Valley, as well as local First
Response and Basic Life
Support
(Paramedics,
EMTs).
These services
cost us no new taxes. We
don’t need an excessive
enterprise requiring taxes
for union wages, equipment, ambulances and
buildings.
The proposed budget for
the CSD is faulty, which is
likely to lead to more taxes
in the future. Asking voters again for tax increases
would be very burdensome.
Remember, nonresident property owners
will be taxed without getting a vote.
Operating an ambulance
service is expensive. Other service districts in BV
have little or no budgets
and mostly depend on
volunteers for their operations.
Volunteerism
is good business in light
of Big Valley’s struggling
economy.
The proposed CSD budget includes no ambulances, equipment or buildings. Additional funds for
Letters

ception to two other gentleman in Alturas, have I
ever met someone who has
given more time and energy to not just one cause
but to many.
You hear the term “our
children are our future.”
Well now is the time to
make that statement a
fact. Well, there are more
than just me out there.
Bill supports our community with Rotary, the helping of school functions,
assists his wife in her job,
and no matter what, if you
ask him to help he will.
I’ve watched him step
up when schools needed
coaches, when students
needed mentoring, and
I’ve watched him gather
the town together when
tragedy has struck. When
Bill says he does care, he
does. Bill has his own Motto . . . Win the Day! And
I will make sure on June
3, he does. He loves this
town, and I am thankful to
have him running for city
council because I know he
will make Alturas a better
place to live.

been cooperating with the
committee, this is not to
say they support the measures. Cooperation should
not imply support for the
measures. The question
is: do we taxpayers support the CSD and the tax?
The proposed CSD is a
case of “too big, too late.”
A solution should have
been accomplished before the local ambulance
service stopped last year.
Since then, we have adjusted to services coming
from Alturas or Fall River.
This adjustment has cost
Valley residents absolutely nothing. The proposed
CSD will cost us $356,000
per year plus capital expenses that could easily be
hundreds of thousands.
Too big! Too late!
It would be nice to get everything we want rather
than what we need. We
already have what we
need without new taxes.
Vote NO on Measure X.
We already have services.
Vote NO on measure Y.
We cannot afford these
new taxes.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC
HEARING
Notice is hereby given
that a Public Hearing will
be held by the County of
Modoc Board of Supervisors on May 27, 2014 at
11:00 o’clock a.m. in the
Alturas City Hall Council
Chambers located at 200
W North Street Alturas,
CA
96101, for consideration and approval of
Resolution resolving impasse and implementing
a last, best, and final offer
to the Modoc County General Unit represented by
UPEC Local 792, pursuant to Government Code
section 3505.4.
and 22, 2014.
Cedarville Park. A recent
application by Ag Commissioner Joe Moreo was
both expensive and illegal based upon the label
instructions.
Further: according to
county board supervisor
minutes we approved an
extra $62,471 for herbicides in mid March.
Farmers know we have
“grown out” many herbicide resistant strains for
Monsanto to game our
soil. If our Ag Commissioner was capable of a
critical thought it could
teach the horrors of these
life-threatening killers
being out of balance.
Neighbors please do
not think our nation is
feeding the world with
Monsanto’s help. While
becoming Monsanto dependent we have been a
net importer of food for a
decade. Our own ground
is so broken; food bills
have increased over 19
percent this year. The
antibiotics needed for
animals to combat effects
of ingesting these (2-4D
style) neurotoxins is expensive.
Monsanto
products
have required increased
application rates as they
have become less effective, increasing cost.
The built-in resistance
(planned obsolesce) is
compromising our human immune systems
(increasing health care
costs).
I have been farming
long enough to remember
when Round-up was introduced. In the day you
were required to wear
full skin protection and
have a permit certifying
you knew how mix and
apply.
Sincerely, Dale
Hodges
Surprise Valley
The message
manipulation
Dear Editor:
For almost a year the Big
Valley area has been without local ambulance service. A group of dedicated
and hardworking people
have made a proposal and
done the work to present
this proposal to the voters.
They have considered the
service to be provided and
the cost to the tax payers.
It is now our turn as taxpayers and voters to step
up to the plate.
The few people vocally
speaking out against these
measures, saying that this
is a duplication of services
and an unfair tax burden,
are the same people who
felt ambulance service
was important and necessary when they proposed
the JPA between local Fire
Protection Districts and
wanted to charge upwards
of $200 per household.
This is not a duplication
of service. The people who
reside in Mayer’s Memorial Hospital and Modoc
Medical Center Hospital
Districts are paying for
this service. These hospitals have been forced to
cover the gap left when
the Big Valley Ambulance
was closed. In effect, we
have been borrowing “sugar” from our neighbors instead of buying our own.
The problem with this is
our neighbors may not always be available to lend
us what we need. Mayer’s
Memorial Hospital has
one ambulance. This am-
bulance covers Burney’s
ambulance when they are
out on a call and takes patients to Redding for inter
facility transports. When
they are out of their immediate area this causes
a gap in service. The Big
Valley Ambulance used
to help cover this gap.
Now the next closest ambulance is Modoc Medical
Center.
As the services are used
or shuffled, response
times increase. We have
already seen a huge increase in response times
here in Big Valley. Response times of six to 20
minutes were the norm
and now we are dealing
with 30-60 minute response times minimum.
This cuts into the “golden hour” of treatment for
the patient. Causing a
stroke, heart attack or
serious accident to become more life threatening. The longer you wait
for treatment to begin the
less your chance of a great
outcome. We were lucky
this winter with little
weather that would delay
response times from over
a mountain pass to our
communities.
Do we really need to
have a tragic loss before
we see that it is time to
“buy our own sugar” and
take care of our own instead of relying on services that are already
stretched painfully thin.
I, like most of you, don’t
want to have to pay another tax. We pay for the
library and they close us
down to one day a week.
We pay for the dump and
they close Adin’s transfer
station to once a month,
we pay Cal Fire’s “tax”
and receive nothing additional for this. I believe
measure X and Y is a tax
we cannot afford to go
without. Look at what
we will be getting: a local Advance Life Support
staff with faster response
times for your emergency,
local control of that service so no one can decide
to shut us down in the future.
It is time we support
each other and take care
of our own. Please consider a Yes vote on measure
X and Y.

Comments sought for
Highland Roadside Safety
Improvement Project
The Doublehead Ranger District of the Modoc National Forest is initiating scoping for the Highland
Roadside Safety Improvement project. The project
area is located in T42N through T45N, R3E through
R4E.
The purpose and need for this project is to provide
safety along 81 miles of major public travel routes. To
date more than 300 trees have been identified as infected by insects and pathogens or have become weakened
by wind damage or lightning. Trees identified for treatment have the potential to fall partially or entirely
within the roadway if they fall.
Ingrowth of shrubs and young trees into the road corridor has created conditions of poor sight distance and
visibility. There is a need to modify the vegetation conditions along the roadway to improve safety.
The project is consistent with the objectives stated
in Forest Service Manual (FSM) 7703.01 to decrease
the potential for accidents on National Forest System
roads.
Project scoping is an ongoing process, and public input on this proposal is important. Input will be used
to help refine the scope of the proposal and further develop the proposed action. To better assist with the
planning process, please submit comments by June
16, 2014, so comments may be considered as we move
through the NEPA process with this project.
Comments, written or oral, may be submitted to:
Chris Christofferson, Acting District Ranger, Doublehead Ranger District, ATTN: Highland Roadside, 49870
Hwy 139, Tulelake, CA. 96134; (530) 667-8610, FAX:
(530) 667-8609 during normal business hours. Doublehead Ranger District business hours are from 8 a.m.
to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Electronic comments, in acceptable plain text (.txt), rich text (.rtf), or
Word (.doc) formats, may be submitted to: [email protected]. Please

NEPA planner at (530) 667-8615, or to [email protected]
Decision on Massacre
Lake grazing levels
The Bureau of Land Management has released decisions authorizing livestock grazing and setting an
appropriate population level for wild horses on public
lands in the Massacre Lakes area in northwest Nevada, about 40 miles east of Cedarville, Calif.
The Decision Record, available online at www.blm.
gov/ca/st/en/fo/surprise.html
authorizes one livestock grazing permit holder to harvest 1,693 animal unit months of forage per year which
would support a maximum of 450 cattle in a grazing
season running from mid-May to mid-September. The
decision for the Massacre Lakes Allotment mandates
that cattle be rotated among five grazing pastures in a
two year cycle.
The appropriate management level for wild horses in
the Massacre Lakes Herd Management Area is set at a
range of 25 to 45 animals with a corresponding forage
allocation of 300 to 540 AUMs per year. The current
AML is 25 to 35 horses.
Details on opportunities to protest or appeal the decisions can be found in the Decision Record document at
the web address shown above.

Field Office, (530) 279-6101.
