Brussels, Kampsville ferries to be closed The Brussels and Kampsville ferries will be closing in the coming week for repairs.

The Brussels Ferry is located one mile west of Grafton and crosses the Illinois River linking Illinois Route 100 to Calhoun County, near Brussels. The Kampsville Ferry carries Illinois Route 108 across the Illinois

River to connect with Illinois Route 100 (Great River Road south), near Kampsville.

The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) announced that the Brussels Ferry will be closed on Thursday, Jan. 16, between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m., weather permitting. The department also announced that the

Kampsville Ferry will be closed on Wednesday, Jan. 22, between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m., weather permitting. Work is necessary to do ferry ramp repairs, and they will only be closed during these hours for one day.

No traffic will be allowed to cross the river during this timeframe, therefore, motorists should seek alternate

routes.

The contractor on this project is St. Louis Bridge Construction Co. of Arnold, Mo. For IDOT District 8 updates, follow them on Twitter at @IDOTDistrict8 or view area construction details on IDOT’s traveler information map on GettingAroundIllinois.com.

By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald While still in the early stages, Hardin Drive-In owners indicated they are planning to rebuild and expand.

Kim Baalman, drive-in co-owner, said they are interested in rebuilding on a hump slightly behind where the business stands today in order to move out of the flood plain. Baalman said it would have to be elevated above where the ’93 flood reached as well.

This latest flood prompted interest in the idea. The Hardin Drive-In was one of numerous businesses that needed to scramble to sandbag with the increasingly high waters at their doorstep last year. With the help of those in the community sandbagging, the business was protected. But, the owners of the Drive-In indicated they cannot do this year after year. “We are getting too old to sandbag,�

Baalman said.

Plans do not stop at a new building, though. Baalman expressed interest in including a deck in the plans for a new building as well as to start serving alcohol. Discussion around issuing an alcohol license to the drive-in was brought up at last week’s Hardin Village Council. “We would like to serve alcohol with a deck to overlook that high water, to look at the bridge since it is a landmark in our county,� Baalman said.

Baalman said interest went beyond moving further away from the flood plain — partly to drive growth in the county. “Things are changing, and I would

like to see our county expand,�

Baalman said.

Other businesses in the county chose the buyout option, but Baalman could not see the drive-in doing the same. “I have been here 30 years,�

Baalman said. “This is a family owned

restaurant‌ We just like serving the people.�

Baalman said everybody has been talking about leaving the county because of the floods. But for Baalman, “there is no place like home.�

Baalman added she hopes these expansion efforts inspires others in the

community to follow suit with plans to grow within the county instead of leave.

Still early in the process, people will likely not see work at the property for a year. They are still “getting all of our ducks in a row,� Baalman said.

Hardin to reach out about potential water sale

By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald The Village of Hardin is interested in selling their water and wastewater systems based on actions made at the latest Hardin Village Board meeting.

The village board made a motion at their meeting, Wednesday, Jan. 8, to reach out to the Illinois American Water Company about potentially buying the village’s water, according to Village Clerk Danielle Hurley.

Tony Friedel and Eric Kallal with the village are set to meet with the water company in the coming future.

Discussions about selling the village’s water assets took place a couple years ago but went quiet, at least publicly, up until the recent meeting.

In recent years, Illinois American Water Company has become a more recognized name in the region, after buying up the operations of numerous area municipality-owned water assets including those in Alton, Grafton and

potentially Jerseyville.

Such sales have spawned criticism in other communities with some worried or concerned water rates will jump or at least jump beyond what would be the case if the city or village retained control over the rates.

This was especially the concern with Jerseyville’s decision. In Jerseyville’s case, it was generally understood among opponents and proponents of the sale that rates would be going up whether the city chose to sell

or not. The city has an aging water system in need of repairs, repairs for which the city does not currently have the funding.

But, disagreement centered on the difference in anticipated individual water rates whether the city sold or not. Jerseyville Mayor Bill Russell argued they were comparable, while others, including a citizens’ council created by the city and an outside firm (See, WATER, A2)

By .5,6 6&+())(/ Calhoun News-Herald The Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) underwent some major changes as it entered the new year.

These changes included the departure of Chief Deputy Kyle Jacobs and Deputy Nate Alderfer as well as the introduction of a new deputy, Zach Hardin, as previously reported.

There were assurances the sheriff’s department could adapt, but it was a concern initially that these departures would prove challenging on a department that was already working with a small force. “We’ve been lucky here for 10 years,� Calhoun County Sheriff Bill Heffington said. “We’ve had the same family... So for me, it’s just like starting over.�

But, Heffington said the sheriff’s office currently has the officers necessary to take on the duties of the department. He said the four full-time slots in the county are covered. “Things are working out pretty good right now,� Heffington said.

Counting Heffington, that covers the five full-time slots allowed.

Any gaps in the workforce, namely

on the night shifts, are filled by 25-30-year veterans of the force taking on hours part-time to help out.

Among those new additions to the force is the new Chief Deputy Gregory Weishaupt, who also continues to serve as the Hardin Village Police Chief. He will retain his position as Hardin Police Chief, working hourly for CSSO. “He brings a lot of experience to the table,� Heffington said.

Heffington said the sheriff’s office is still challenged by the hours necessary to cover the county, though.

The departure of Jacobs and Alderfer are among a number of departures during the past five years. While those like Jacobs are looking to begin a new chapter, others are leaving because of financial concerns, in particular, wages and health insurance. “If we just had health benefits, then people would stay,�

Heffington said. “It’s just a killer for us.�

The county does not provide health insurance benefits, and for those with families, it can be difficult to afford the cost of private (See, SHERIFF'S, A2)

Impeachment is available in Illinois too r e n n u R e Ridg

By BILL HOAGLAND An article recently appeared on a national news outlet stating, in essence, that the current Democrats in Congress probably would have impeached Abraham Lincoln if given the opportunity. What caught my attention about the article was not the premise of the article but rather the person who wrote it.

The author knows more than most of us about the issue of impeachment. In fact, I am sure he thinks about impeachment every day. That person is Rod Blagojevich, the former governor of Illinois, who is only one of two people ever impeached in Illinois.

It might surprise you to learn that the Illinois Constitution provides its own mechanism to impeach state officials in both the executive and judicial branches of state government. Frankly, the people drafting this provision in the Illinois Constitution did a much better job than our Founding Fathers did with the impeachment provisions in the US Constitution. In the Illinois Constitution, there is no confusing language about “high crimes

and misdemeanors.”

Rather, Article IV, Section 14 provides that the House of Representatives “has the sole power to conduct legislative investigations to determine the existence of cause for impeachment.”

This determination as to whether cause exists must be by a simple majority of the House of Representatives. If they determine that cause exists, the impeachment trial is to be conducted by the Senate, and in order to impeach, there must be a vote in favor of impeachment by a minimum vote of two-thirds of the Senate.

Impeachment under the Illinois Constitution applies only to state executives and judges, not legislators.

The Illinois Constitution leaves it up to the members of the House of Representatives to determine what constitutes sufficient cause for impeachment. Obviously, the commission of a felony would be sufficient grounds, as was the case with Blagojevich, but what about conduct that might not constitute a felony, such as conduct suggesting mental illness or dementia? Maybe so.

C H R O N IC L E S

As an aside, I should mention that there is a separate constitutional provision in the Illinois Constitution to recall the governor. Article III, Section 7 sets out that procedure. To initiate that procedure, there must be a petition containing at least 15 percent of the total votes cast for that governor in the preceding election and at least 100 signatures from electors in at least 25 counties.

Once that petition is filed with the State Board of Elections, there is then a procedure to determine the validity of the signatures before a state wide vote is held on the issue, at which time a simple majority of the electors voting is required to recall a governor. This procedure applies only to the governor, not other state officials.

By writing about this

issue, I am not suggesting that anyone in Illinois should be impeached or recalled at this point. There have been only two impeachments in Illinois since 1818, and in my view, that is the way it should be-- a rarely used mechanism to oust a public official when all else fails.

If at all possible, removal from office should be left up to the voting public during normal elections.

Outdoor Truths: Gary Miller

Winter serves a reminder of the spring's growth There’s something about bow hunting in the dead of winter.

It brings together the most difficult circumstances a hunter can face. The temperatures come in the teens, the wind can cut through the thickest clothes, and the snow can make a normally short walk to the stand a long and treacherous trek.

The simple, but difficult, goal after that is simply seeing if one can get within bow range of a deer, which is usually thirty to forty yards. With all these great conditions, what’s not to like?

Sometimes, I like hunting this way. To be honest, I liked it more when I was a bit younger. It was a test to me — a test of my preparation, endur-

ance and ability. Today, during those same conditions, I prefer a ground blind and a heater.

And, if the wind is favorable, my little Stanley thermos of coffee. I used to deliberately choose difficulty.

Now, I deliberately choose comfort. Sometimes, however, no matter how bad I want comfort and try to plan for it, difficulty comes. And this is especially true during the winter. This season will always be more troublesome.

In the Christian life there are also times that are more difficult than others.

They are the seasons of some of the harshest pains life can offer. They are the seasons of sacrifice, suffering and sorrow. They make normal activities difficult and complicated.

(Continued from A1) tasked with weighing the options, said privatized rates would be higher, and advised against moving forward with a sale.

For Hardin, water has grown to be a big issue. It was previously reported that Hardin’s water system is in dire need of these repairs. The water mains have had numerous breaks over the years leading to a need for frequent boil orders.

Just last week, water main breaks became an issue for those at Calhoun High School. On Thursday, Jan. 9, Calhoun High School students were dismissed early because of a water main break.

It was last reported that Heneghan and Associates had been sending out

It is the Christian winter.

But, it is in this winter that I am compelled to look for new life. You see, winter is the season of faith. The trees are without leaves and the ground is covered with the death of the past. But, it is under the surface of those leaves and death that we find the life for the days ahead. We may not be able to see it, but it is there – germinating, breaking free, and growing.

In our winter times, we too are growing. God is using the hard things to teach us to trust him. We may not see him, but if we will look under the surface, we will find God at work, getting us ready for a new season of life.

The weeks ahead are called the “dead of winter” because

surveys with dwindling success for the repairing of Hardin’s water mains. The surveys were said to be a crucial component to acquiring the necessary grant money to fund the project, which the Hardin Village Board agreed had been long overdue.

Also at the Village Board meeting, Hurley said a motion was made to move forward and figure out the next steps toward developing a tax increment financing (TIF) district in the village. Hurley said the board is moving forward to “see what to do next.”

Hardin would not be the first to implement a TIF district in the region.

Jersey County alone has multiple TIF districts in Jerseyville and a TIF in Grafton just concluded. These districts are used to spark development, whether

Nothing, however, is dead.

It is only waiting and trusting for the next season of life and growth. Your winter is the same. New life is just around corner.

residential or commercial, for 23 years typically. A district’s longevity can be extended.

Other nearby communities were considering the proposition including Carrollton. In Carrollton, this drew controversy in the community because of the potential funds other taxing bodies would miss out on.

It had not been nailed down what a TIF district in Hardin would encompass, but both residentially- and commercially-focused districts were mentioned at previous village board meetings. Recently, Hardin, and the rest of the county, has been struggling with growth as more business owners and residents in the community opted into the state buyout program following last year’s flooding.

Sheriff’s (Continued from A1) insurance. This, in addition to the high demand for officers, has led a number of individuals to leave the county for better offers.

Heffington has said previously that he “doesn’t blame them one bit” for leaving, but that finding replacements can be difficult.

“Each time we hire a new deputy, we are conscious that they fit in with the group,” Jacobs said.

Heffington said that has been the case so far. Rookies are feeding off the experience of other more seasoned deputies and everyone is fitting into place well.

CSSO happily welcomed a new hire on Dec. 27: Deputy Zach Hardin.

Hardin will be filling a vacancy left by former officer Pat Parker.

“Zach’s exactly the kind of person we felt comfortable replacing him with,” Jacobs said.

Hardin had first become acquainted with Jacobs and Parker in November of 2016, but because of limited openings and budgetary constraints, he wasn’t hired on until 2019.

“He had a lifetime goal of becoming a police officer,” Jacobs said.

Hardin had grown up spending time with his grandfather in the south end of Calhoun, making some of his favorite memories in the county. Upon meeting Jacobs and Parker and learning they worked for CSSO, Jacobs said, he lit up.

“He said to us, ‘I love Calhoun County,’” Jacobs said. “He just loves it up here, and it worked out.”

Many deputies agree with Hardin’s sentiment, Heffington said, and would prefer to work in a community like Calhoun, but are unable to do so, especially while trying to raise a family.

“This is one of the rare counties where the people know their officers,” Heffington said. “Everybody knows everybody.”

In September, the CSSO discussed new hiring policies that would help remedy the difficulties the department faces when trying to fill vacancies. These new measures would permit new hires to live up to 30 miles outside the county rather than requir-

ing they move to Calhoun during their probationary period. One stipulation, however, is that they would not be allowed to drive their squad cars outside the county.

Hardin has yet to complete his training at the Police Academy, and therefore, will not be able to begin his work with CSSO until March.

“Once he completes that, he’s going to be a part of the community,” Jacobs said.

Heffington said they are always looking for new applicants — individuals with the ability to work well with the other deputies and the community at large.

“It takes a special person to take on this job,” Jacobs said.

In related news, concerns about retaining officers at the village level in Hardin have been addressed at the village board meeting Wednesday, Jan. 8. It was said that it has proved challenging to find officers to take on the position in Hardin. It was suggested the rate at which officers are paid might need to go up to attract more to the position and stay competitive.

Officials remind state of new minimum wage rates Illinoisans rang in the New Year with a new, higher minimum wage, and the Department of Labor is encouraging employees to watch their paychecks to ensure that time worked in 2020 is paid at the new rate.

Governor JB Pritzker signed the new minimum wage law last February providing a path to a $15 minimum wage by 2025.

Minimum wage earners received an increase of $1 to $9.25 an hour on Jan. 1, which will be followed by an increase to $10 an hour on July 1. The minimum wage will then increase an additional $1 an hour at the start of each year until it reaches $15 an hour in 2025.

“While we expect compliance by all employers regarding the new minimum wage, it is important that workers earning minimum wage are aware that the $1 increase should be reflected in their pay checks for any time they work after the first of the year,” said Michael Kleinik, director of the Illinois Department of Labor.

The last time Illinois increased its minimum wage was a decade ago in 2010 when it was raised to $8.25. Since that time, Cook County has put in place a $12 per hour minimum wage and Chicago’s minimum wage is now $13 an hour.

More than 1.4 million adult hourly workers in Illinois currently make less than $15 per hour, according to the Illinois Economic Policy Institute at the University of Illinois.

The new law maintains provisions for employers to count gratuities to offset wages for workers such as food servers who regularly

earn tips. Tipped employees may be paid 60 percent of the hourly minimum wage. These workers must still earn the minimum wage after receiving tips.

Workers who are under 18 years old and work fewer than 650 hours in a year earn a minimum wage of $8 per hour beginning Jan. 1, up from the old youth minimum wage of $7.75. The youth minimum wage rate will gradually rise to $13 an hour by Jan. 1, 2025.

At the same time, state officials from the Illinois Department of Revenue are reminding small business owners of the tax credits available and associated with the new minimum wage changes.

The new tax credit is designed to help small businesses offset the state’s minimum wage rate that will gradually increase to $15 an hour over the next six years. Businesses can now claim the credit on their quarterly Illinois Withholding Income tax returns.

Beginning this year, businesses and nonprofits with 50 full-time equivalent employees or less are eligible to offset a portion of the minimum wage increase cost from their withholding income taxes. The maximum credit amount allowed is 25 percent of the difference between the new minimum wage and what each employee was paid previously.

The percentage allowed each proceeding year will decrease before sunsetting in 2026 for most small businesses. Eligible businesses can claim this credit by filing Form IL-941, Illinois Withholding Income Tax Return, and a new schedule.

Casting announced for Jersey Boys

Casting has been announced for the highlyanticipated return engagement of the Tony, Grammy and Olivier Award-winning hit musical Jersey Boys, the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, playing the Fabulous Fox Theatre Jan. 30 through Feb. 2.

The cast of Jersey Boys will be led by Eric Chambliss (Bob Gaudio), Corey Greenan (Tommy DeVito), Jon Hacker (Frankie Valli) and Michael Milton (Nick Massi) as The Four Seasons.

The ensemble of Jersey Boys includes AndrĂŠs Acosta, Justin Albinder, Ashley Bruce, Kenneth Quinney Francoeur, Katie Goffman, Connor Lyon, Kevin Patrick Martin, Sean McGee, Hamilton Moore, Bruno Vida and Amy Weaver.

Jersey Boys is the winner of the 2006 Best Musical Tony Award, the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album, the 2009 Olivier Award for Best New Musical and the 2010 Helpmann Award for Best Musical (Australia). Jersey Boys worldwide has been seen by over 26 million people (as of January 2019).

Directed by two-time Tony Award-winner Des McAnuff, Jersey Boys is written by Academy Awardwinner Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, with music

by Bob Gaudio, lyrics by Bob Crewe and choreography by Sergio Trujillo.

Jersey Boys is the behind-the-music story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. They were just four guys from Jersey, until they sang their very first note. They had a sound nobody had ever heard‌ and the radio just couldn’t get enough of. But while their harmonies were perfect on stage, off stage it was a

very different story – a story that has made them an international sensation all over again. The show features all their hits including “Sherry,� “Big Girls Don’t Cry,� “Oh What A Night,� “Walk Like A Man,� “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You� and “Working My Way Back To You.�

Jersey Boys opened in New York on Nov. 6, 2005 and by the time it closed over 11 years later on Jan. 15, 2017, it was the 12th longest running show in Broadway history, passing such original Broadway productions as 42nd Street, Grease, Fiddler on the Roof, and The Producers. Jersey Boys will return to New York with a new production in November 2017. The Jersey Boys US National Tour opened to rave reviews in San Francisco on Dec. 1, 2006 and is still breaking house records in cities across North America.

Jersey Boys can also be seen on board the Norwegian Bliss.

The Jersey Boys design and production team comprises Klara Zieglerova (Scenic Design), Jess Goldstein (Costume Design), Howell Binkley (winner of the 2006 Tony Award for his Lighting Design of Jersey Boys), Steve Canyon Kennedy (Sound Design), Michael Clark (Projections Design), Charles LaPointe (Wig and Hair Design), Steve Orich (Orchestrations) and Ron Melrose (Music Supervision, Vocal/Dance Arrangements & Incidental Music).

Jersey Boys is produced

by Dodger Theatricals, Joseph J. Grano, Tamara and Kevin Kinsella, Pelican Group, with Latitude Link, Rick Steiner, and NETworks Presentations.

The Original Broadway Cast Recording of Jersey Boys, produced by Bob

Gaudio, was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. The cast recording is available on Rhino Records. Jersey Boys: The Story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons (Broadway Books) is the official handbook to the smash Broadway hit. Seasons Greetings: A Jersey Boys Christmas, a holiday CD featuring international cast members of Jersey Boys, produced by Bob Gaudio, is available on Rhino Records.

Jersey Boys will return to St. Louis at the Fabulous Fox Theatre Jan. 30 – Feb. 2. The performance schedule is Thursday, Friday and Saturday evening at 7:30 p. m., Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sunday at 1 p.m.

Tickets for Jersey Boys begin at $35 and are available online at MetroTix. com, by phone at 314-5341111 and in person at the Fox Theatre Box Office.

“You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.�

Ephesians 4:22-24 NIV

W

hen one considers the evil that has been done in the name of religion, it is understandable that many give up entirely on organized religion. The sexual abuse crisis in the Catholic church has probably done more to drive the faithful from the pews than “secular humanism� or other worldly philosophies. Likewise, when people see that Islamic extremists are willing to kill innocent people in the name of God, this is a repellant to almost all religion. The history of the world is awash in the blood of innocents killed in the name of God, and when we look closely at the history of any religion, we almost always see that right from the start strife, division, and schism are there. Read the Acts of the Apostles and see that the early church was beset by division. There were disputes over whether the Gentile converts to Christianity were required to follow the dietary and other restrictions of Judaism (cf. Acts 15). We see also that the Hellenistic Jews complained that their widows were being overlooked in the daily

distribution of food (cf. Acts 6:1).

Rumblings of discontent show up early in every organization and continue throughout its life. The philosopher Immanuel Kant remarked that “Out of the crooked timber of humanity, no straight thing was ever made.�

Understanding this should make us humble, and tolerant of the foibles of others. We are all weak and by nature sinful, but we can improve, with the help of God and a sincere desire to be better persons. –Christopher Simon

The Calhoun Lady Warriors basketball team continues to show improvement, but it is wins that the team is seeking to have a chance at more favorable postseason seeding.

Grouped into the southern half of their sectional this season, Calhoun avoids the likes of Carrollton, Routt, and Triopia, all of whom who are having quality seasons and will feed into regionals at North Greene and Athens.

Instead, the Lady Warriors will be looking up at Father McGivney and a bunch of other clubs the team can compete with for seeding. These teams fill regionals at Edwardsville-Metro East Lutheran and Nokomis. While both regionals require a sizable travel, Calhoun welcomes the opportunity to see some new faces in postseason play.

Calhoun has wins over North Greene, Alton, Brussels, Western and Bunker Hill this season. The best of those wins being the second of back-to-back game road nights where the Lady Warriors squeaked out a 56-52 win in White Hall with some crucial possessions down the stretch.

Calhoun had played at Brown County the night before, not an easy trip to make any day of the week.

The Alton win served as bit of redemption after Calhoun dropped the first game of the year to the Lady Redbirds at the Alton tournament. Calhoun took them down in the seventh place game of the Jersey Holiday Tournament 51-41. Lopsided wins over Brussels and Bunker Hill provided confidence the Lady Warriors can separate themselves from teams, and gritty 43-34 win at Western early in the year was the first win of the season.

Narrow losses to Gateway Legacy (5557), Liberty (51-53 OT), Pittsfield (3641), along with great first halves against Carrollton (11-12 score), and Gillespie (28-32) show the Lady Warriors squad can compete with good competition at home or on the road.

The Lady Warriors are playing much better since the first half of the season and will look to be potentially playing their best ball at the end of the season.

With big conference games coming up in short order, along with the Lady Hawk Invitational, Calhoun still has a lot to play for before postseason play arrives.

Seniors Ashleigh Presley, Hope Wilschetz, and Sydney Baalman see regular playing time along with juniors Colleen Schumann, Elly Pohlman, and Emily Clowers. Sophomore Ella Sievers, and freshman Jaelyn Hill fill out the regular eight player rotation who play the most minutes on a given varsity night.

The junior varisty team has been seeing plenty of success this season and currently has a 7-3 record. With 12 players on the roster this season, the seven girls who are not starting play the junior varsity minutes.

Juniors Jackie Barczewski, sophomores Mallory Kamp and Maddie Buchanan, and freshman Kortney Herkert have been playing mostly JV minutes along with varsity reserves, Elly Pohlman, Jaelyn Hill, and Emily Clowers.

answered to the Sheriff himself, but also answered to all of you.

I recently left the Calhoun County Sheriff’s OfďŹ ce after 11.5 years as a Deputy Sheriff and most recently the past 1.5 years as a Chief Deputy Sheriff.

I just wanted to take a few minutes and let everyone know why I left and let everyone know how much working in Calhoun County meant to me.

I left CCSO to work full time for the GreenďŹ eld Police Department, which is where I had gone to high school, and had been an ofďŹ cer previously, and it is only 12 minutes or so from the farm in South Greene County where I was born and raised.

I know how rumors can start, and I just want to make sure that no one thinks I was ďŹ red, or demoted, or stormed out over some disagreement. There were no negative reasons for my career change‌ only positive reasons for the future.

Calhoun County wasn’t just a random place that I found a job back in 2008, it is the birthplace of my grandparents, my grandma being a Sievers and my grandpa being a Tepen.

Calhoun is where they grew up through the Great Depression. They had several siblings, so my family tree in Calhoun County is quite extensive.

The reason I was born and raised on that farm in South East Greene County, is because that is where my grandparents purchased land in the 1940s when farms were hard to come by in Calhoun County.

One of the things I was most proud of while being Chief Deputy Sheriff was the fact that I had a signiďŹ cant role in managing CCSO’s ďŹ nances and budget. I consider myself a ďŹ scal conservative and I know that being trusted to spend the taxpayer’s hard earned money is a serious matter.

I am very appreciative to lots of people in Calhoun County, and I am going to mention just a few .

To the Calhoun County Republican Party, thank you. You showed me a lot of love and support ten years ago and I have never and will never forget that.

If I had stayed in Calhoun County long-term, I would have loved to run for election after Sheriff Bill HefďŹ ngton retired. I may not have been able to win, but we could have had a lot of fun and the citizens of Calhoun County would have learned what the term “We the Peopleâ€? truly means.

To the Kinder family in Golden Eagle, thank you. You made me feel like a member of your family when I lived down there and my place overlooking the river is my 2nd favorite place on earth.

To the staff at CCSO, thank you. You are all so great. You guys made my job a lot easier by working so hard and being such fun coworkers every day. I hope I was successful as Chief Deputy, and if I was, you all had a big part in that.

To Sheriff Bill HefďŹ ngton, thank you. You hired me as a Deputy and then gave me the greatest job when you made me Chief Deputy. You are the only person who loves to work more than I do. Me and Parker still never ďŹ gured out how to keep up with you chasing a fugitive through the woods.

To the citizens and taxpayers, thank you. You all kept us in ofďŹ ce with your support and you made CCSO a very important part of the Calhoun community. I couldn’t even start to mention all the ways you the citizens helped us and showed us support, buy it really did amaze me.

I do ask you the citizens to keep supporting CCSO, they need it and all law enforcement needs it. The world is getting crazier every day and Calhoun County is not immune from the bad people out there in the world. CCSO will continue to do everything possible to serve and protect you.

Please continue to support State’s Attorney Rick Ringhausen, he does so many important things every day to help protect Calhoun County.

Please continue to support Two Rivers Crime Stoppers, they are only 3 years old and have already done so many great things for our Tri-county region and they will continue to do more.

Please continue to support Sheriff Bill HefďŹ ngton. This really goes without saying‌ especially when a Sheriff wins 78% of the vote in a 3 way race, but the average person may not realize exactly how hard he works and what sacriďŹ ces he makes for Calhoun County.

Thank you to everyone in Calhoun County, Calhoun is an awesome place to live, an awesome place to work, and my time there will always be a very special part of my career and my life. If anyone ever needs anything from me in the future I am just across the river.

Respectfully submitted, Kyle Jacobs, Rockbridge Illinois

What’s Happening

25 Years Ago January 18, 1995 A Disaster Fund was established in July of 1993 to be an account in which any donations received by the County could be deposited during the flood.

As of January 17, 1995, this Disaster Fund has a balance of $37, 714.84, and Treasurer Curt Robeen, Jr., has it in a NOW account earning interest.

A major source of income for this Fund was the selling of T-shirts which were printed by Lois Woeful of Michael. These sales brought in a total of $10,730.50 with expenses of $2,934.91, profiting $7,795.59.

Other related flood expenses totaled $4,436.08.

There have ben no disbursements in this fiscal year beginning September 1, 1994.

50 Years Ago January 15, 1970 Public hearings were held on the proposed freeway from Jacksonville to

75 Years ago January 18, 1945 Harry Ringhausen of Elsberry, Mo., was a News office visitor Monday. Harry had the misfortune recently to run a nail in his left food, and he was getting around on crutches. He advised us that five Calhoun youths left Elsberry that evening for army induction from the Missouri selective boards. They were Charley Degerlia, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Degerlia; Douglas Ringhausen, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Ringhausen; Kenneth and Emmet Tolbert, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Tolbert; and Estel Emerick, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence

Emerick. The Tolberts and Degerlias now have four sons each in service. Mr. and Mrs. Degerlia received word this week that one of their sons, Gilbert, had been killed in action.

100 Years Ago January 15, 1920 The Missus Grace Foiles, Alma Forrester and Leta Dixon, three of Hardin’s school teachers who were exposed to the small-pox, and who were forbidden to teach their school until all danger of their taking the disease through their being exposed, resumed their school work Monday. A new case of smallpox, although under the same room, in the Cockerel home, has developed since our last issue. Miss Vina Smith, who is staying with Mrs. Cockerel and assisting her with the housework, fell a victim to the malady one day last week. No cases outside of the Cockerel home have, thus far, developed and it is thought that with the very best of precaution, and with the proper fumigation, the disease has run its short course in Hardin.

A small-pox germ lives for years in cracks, crevices and such other hiding places and unless these

Farmers gather for state’s first Hemp Summit Some growers had better luck than others

By PETER HANCOCK Capitol News Illinois Illinois Department of Agriculture Director John Sullivan said that interest in the newly-legalized hemp industry continues to build, but more work needs to be done for the industry to mature.

Sullivan spoke to reporters at the state’s first Hemp Summit at the Illinois State Fairgrounds in Springfield where nearly 700 farmers, processors and other people involved in the hemp industry gathered to talk about what they learned during the 2019 growing season — the first season of legal hemp production in Illinois.

“People are excited. There’s a lot of questions,” he said. “This is an industry, I would say, in its infancy stages at the moment. We have a lot to learn and that’s what our speakers are here today to talk about.”

State officials won’t know until next month exactly how many acres of hemp were planted or harvested, but the state certified more than 21,000 acres as being eligible for hemp planting — considerably more than officials expected.

Jeff Cox, who heads the department’s medicinal plant bureau, said the agency registered 644 farmers to grow hemp and licensed 194 processors.

Hemp, a close relative of the marijuana plant, had been illegal in the United States since 1937, although the federal government did encourage its production during World War II. But after decades of debate, Congress reversed course in 2014 with passage of a Farm Bill that authorized hemp production for research purposes. It then lifted the ban entirely with passage of the 2018 Farm Bill.

Under that law, hemp is only legal if it contains no more than 0.3 percent of THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. If a crop contains any amount of THC above that limit, it is considered marijuana and must be destroyed.

Some farmers grow hemp for its fiber, which can be used in a wide variety of products such as rope, cloth and even building materials. So far in Illinois, however, hemp farmers have focused exclusively on a variety that produces CBD oil,

germs are killed by the right kind of fumigation, it will only be a short while until the disease will break out afresh. Hardin has the small-pox cornered and let’s not make the sad mistake of allowing its escape by improper fumigation.

thought to have a number of medicinal uses, ranging from an anti-inflammatory treatment to controlling seizures.

That’s mainly because there are not yet any industrial facilities to process hemp fiber in Illinois, and only a limited number of processors for hemp oil.

“There’s a huge need for more processing capacity in the state,” said Justin Ward, cofounder of Stoney Branch Ag Ventures, near Rushville — a company that provides custom farming and consulting services to hemp producers. “I have a number of farmers who are having issues with getting their product into processing, and I know what few processors we have in the state are very backed up.”

As the planting season began this past spring, some people were estimating farmers could make as much as $90,000 to $160,000 per acre growing hemp for oil. But as some found out this year, the new hemp supply drove prices down.

“There was a lot of discussion about get-rich-quick,” Sullivan said. “You’ve got to keep in mind, Illinois is not the only state doing this. Nearly every state in the country is in this process.”

Even with the price drop, however, Ward said he had a successful year.

“We had a very successful year producing for CBD,” he said. “We already have our product on shelves in stores all over the state, so we had a very successful first season.”

Some other hemp farmers weren’t as fortunate, though. Trent Lawrence, who started growing hemp on a farm near Delavan, where he also grows organic vegetables, had the experience that all farmers dread.

“We actually had a tornadic super cell pass over our farm the day we were supposed to start harvesting,” he said. “It broke all of our plants —the whole field.

It touched down about a quarter-mile from our farm and went directly over us.”

Lawrence said he ended up harvesting very little crop, a significant loss considering how labor- and capital-intensive hemp farming is, but he said he fully intends to try again in 2020.

“I got all the equipment now. I’ve got to keep doing it,” he said. “Every year is not going to be as bad as this year.”
