100 YEARS AGO: It was announced that a grand jury submitted a partial report for 1916-17 to the Honorable W. H. Langdom, judge of the Superior Court of the State of California. In the report, the jury examined the office of Stanislaus County recorder and auditor, under the County Governance Act. They found that the office, being held by one person, had to split and become two offices. The jury cited that local and county business was increasing and there was a need for the two offices in order to avoid congestion and delays in the processing of paperwork.
