• Land: To attract and retain semiconductor research and development and manufacturers, we need more buildable industrial land proximate to infrastructure, talented workers, and specialized suppliers. Oregon’s land use system and infrastructure investment programs need urgent legislative attention and investment to address this need.
Skarlatos: Oregon is ready for change
Oregon Health Authority and Oregon Department of Education have provided updates about the status of the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to ensure Oregon schools can maintain in-person instruction during the 2022-2023 schoolOHAyear.State Health Officer Dr. Dean Sidelinger and Oregon Deputy Superintendent of Public Instruction Colt Gill briefed reporters during a Zoom meeting Wednesday afternoon, Aug. 17. The state reported 1,406 COVID cases July 20 and 852 Aug. 17, Sidelinger said. Grant County, in eastern Oregon, has had the most cases per 100,000 people, more than 40,000. Sidelinger noted that many people have been taking home COVID tests without reporting theHeresults.saidthat the omicron strain remains the most prevalent, and that COVID hospitalizations statewide dropped from 464 July 20 to 328 Aug. 17. The latest forecast by the Oregon Health and Science University for emergency room visits, he added, dropped from 6.4% to 2.4%. Sidelinger said that everyone from the age of 2 months up is eligible for booster shots. “If you are eligible, get your booster now, and do not wait,” he said. He urged going to the OHSU website to learn about effectiveNotingtreatments.thatAugust is National Vaccination Awareness Month, Sidelinger said the Oregon Health Authority has a prevention program for children.

A new report finds the semiconductor industry expansion presents Oregon with an ‘extraordinary opportunity’ to intentionally create jobs and investment the state needs to emerge from the pandemic with a stronger, more deliberately equitable economy.
An ‘extraordinary opportunity’ BY DAVID RUPKALVIS
BY DAVID RUPKALVIS The World A former Coquille High School math teacher will spend close to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to encouraging child sex abuse. Kory Lee Sturgess, 32, pleaded guilty to multiple counts of encouraging child sex abuse in the first degree and encouraging child sex abuse in the second degree in exchange for a 115-month sentence in prison. The case stems from an arrest in October 2021 after the Coquille Police Department served a search warrant at Sturgess’ home in Coquille. The warrant was signed by a judge after police found evidence Sturgess was involved in the manufacture and distribution of child pornography, the Coquille police said at the time. At the time, Sturgess taught algebra and geometry at Coquille High School. Sturgess was fired by the Coquille School District shortly after his arrest. At the time of his arrest, police said there was no indication Sturgess had committed crimes against localMillerchildren.reported Sturgess was cooperating with police after his arrest.InMay, Sturgess was indicted by a Coos County grand jury on 30 counts - 15 counts of encouraging child sex abuse in the first degree and 15 counts of encouraging child sex abuse in the secondAfterdegree.theindictment was released, Sturgess was arrested in Springfield and returned to Coos County on a $200,000 bond. He will get credit for time served when he is transferred to the Oregon Department of Corrections to serve his 115-month sentence.

Once the facilities are operational - thousands of additional semiconductor manufacturing and supply chain jobs will be created, where nearly 50% of positions require no more than high school or community college training, according to the report. “The public revenues generated will be in the billions, providing needed financial resources to support critical community priorities such as homelessness, affordable housing, and education,” the report states. The Semiconductor Task Force was convened to develop a strategy to secure this once-in-a-generation opportunity for all Oregonians. The Task Force organized five subcommittees to explore and make recommendations on key factors influencing the industry’s growth in TheseOregon.are the subcommittees’ findings and broad recommendations to date: • R&D Strength: Semiconductor research and development is Oregon’s competitive advantage. Our strategy to secure chip investment should focus on solidifying a world-class innovation ecosystem around chip research and production.
priorcasesCOVIDupdateoffiStatecials
The report’s executive summary, from the Oregon Semiconductor Competitiveness Task Force, states the global semiconductor industry is investing billions to fill a worldwide chip shortage and the U.S. government is taking strong action to secure the nation’s semiconductor supply chain. In July, Congress passed the $52 billion CHIPS Act to boost domestic semiconductor manufacturing and design. “This creates a huge opportunity to solidify Oregon’s position as a world leader in semiconductor innovation, dramatically expanding our base of semiconductor design and manufacturing,” the report’s summary states. “The benefits in equitable economic development will be transformational. Billions in capital investment will create tens of thousands of high-paying construction jobs, many of them held by black, indigenous and people of color.”

I never would have thought I would have run for office. After everything that happened to me, I came home and saw a great need.” That need led to Skarlatos running for Congress in the Fourth Congressional District two years ago, where he finished five points behind longtime incumbent Peter DeFazio.Afterfinishing closer than many expected, Skarlatos decided to try one more time, announcing his candidacy as a Republican in District Four before DeFazio decided to retire. “I had already announced, but when I saw what happened in Afghanistan, that pissed me off and made me want to do something about it,” Skarlatos said.

5. Plan for emergencies. Whether you are out for an hour or a multiday trip, an injury, severe weather or wrong turn could become life threatening. Don’t assume you will be rescued; know how to rescue yourself. Always carry equipment in case you have to spend the night. Have food, water, shelter and weather appropriate clothing. Carry a first aid kit and a 6. Communication devices. A cell phone alone does not suffice as an emergency plan. A large portion of our remote areas do not have cell phone coverage. Whichever communication device you decide to carry, make sure you have sufficient power. An alternate power supply is a good idea. If you choose to recreate alone, satellite communication/tracking devices or personal locator beacons are a valuable tool and provide rescuers a better opportunity to find you.

COVID From A1 risk for transmission of monkeypox,” he said. “As we continue to face this outbreak, we will have students, staff or teachers who are diagnosed with monkeypox. We encourage them to stay home if they are sick or develop a new rash. Seek care for testing and treatment. This will help minimize potential exposures – even exposures that present low risks for transmission – in schools.” Anyone with prolonged skin-to-skin contact with an individual with monkeypox can get monkeypox, according to Sidelinger.

1. Be prepared with knowledge and gear. Become self-reliant by learning about the terrain, conditions, local weather and your equipment before you set out.
State health and school officials are working closely with school districts across the state to ensure Oregon schools can maintain in-person instruction during the 2022-2023 school year.
2. Share your plans. Tell someone where you are going, where you plan to hike or recreate, when you will return and your plan for emergencies. Leave a map, if possible.
Southwestern Oregon Preppers will be holding a Preparedness Workshop at noon, Saturday, August 27, at Azalea Park, rear entrance, 640 Old County Rd, Brookings. Bring your bugout bag and be prepared. This workshop is for the beginning prepper who doesn’t know where to begin and a refresher for the experienced prepper. This is a free public meeting to get to know fellow local preppers in southwestern Oregon counties and to exchange information and ideas. It is important for individuals to understand that they will be “on their own” in the event of a disaster and not depend on receiving outside help.

Two hikers were rescued by Douglas County Search and Rescue in the Boulder Creek Wilderness area after activating a SPOT device SOS notification.OnMonday, August 15, at 12:15 p.m., 9-1-1 dispatchers received information from the SPOT Monitoring service that two hikers had pressed an S.O.S. alarm indicating they needed emergent assistance. The GPS coordinates from the SPOT device indicated the hikers were roughly in the middle of the Boulder Creek Wilderness area on the Umpqua National Forest.Search and Rescue crews were activated and responded to the incident. Due to the terrain and the location where the hikers were located, it took searchers until 7:30 p.m. to reach the them. It was determined the hikers, 27-year-old Scarlet Kelley and 22-year-old Kita Hastings, both of Roseburg, were slightly dehydrated and underprepared for the conditions but were otherwise stable. Searchers provided the hikers with food, water and clothing before beginning to lead them out to a trail where horseback teams were standing by. Horses were able to get positioned as closely to the hikers as possible, due to the efforts of recent volunteer work to clear a trail system in the wilderness area. Again, due to difficult terrain, downed trees, hazards and darkness it took approximately 7.5 hours for the rescue teams to reach the waiting horses. Once at the horses, the hikers were led out by searchers on horseback arriving to safety at 7:34 am Tuesday morning. In total, the mission lasted just over 19 hours. The hikers were released to a friend who transported them“Thehome.volunteers of Douglas County Search and Rescue and our partner agencies work and train hard for these types of missions and their efforts show,” Lt. Brad O’Dell said. “I couldn’t be prouder of this team.” Douglas County Search and Rescue was assisted by the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Oregon State Police - Fish & Game Division, U.S. Forest Service Law Enforcement, the Oregon State SAR Coordinator and the SPOT Device Response Center.Search and Rescue would like to remind the public that your safety is their concern, but it is your responsibility. Here are some ways that you can be better prepared in the event something goes awry on your next outdoor adventure.

Noting that the usual precautions, such as home masks and keeping children home, still help, he said local decisions still would be left to school leaders.“We’re watching the situation carefully,” he added. Gill also said that school districts have been providing mental health tool kits and that plans are posted on each district’s website.

Asked whether there was an epi curve (visual display of onset of illnesses for an outbreak) for monkeypox, Sidelinger replied that there have been too few cases, even nationwide, to have one.

STAFF REPORT
To protect patient confidentiality, OHA is not disclosing the child’s sex, age, county of residence or how the child is connected to the previously diagnosed case, according to Sidelinger. The Oregon child was tested for monkeypox Aug. 11, and the test results were reported to public health Aug. 15. Since receiving test results, the local public health authority, with support from OHA, has been conducting a case investigation and contact tracing to determine whether there are other exposures. During these investigations, public health provides guidance on how to avoid spreading the virus to others and offers vaccines to close contacts.
Oregon Health Authority (OHA) officials have confirmed the state’s first pediatric case of monkeypox virus (hMPXV).Thecase is linked to an adult monkeypox infection that was confirmed last“Wemonth.have a known connection to a previously diagnosed case,” OHA Health Officer and State Epidemiologist Dean Sidelinger said. “This child did not get the virus at school, child care or another community setting.”
weeks, as monkeypox cases continue to rise in Oregon and other states. But he emphasized that risk of monkeypox spreading in school settings is low, since the most common means of person-toperson transmission is direct contact with the rash, scabs or body fluids of a person with the virus. “Monkeypox is not COVID-19,” Sidelinger said. “This virus is not easily spread unless you have that prolonged, close, skin-to-skin contact with an infectedSymptomsperson.”ofthe virus can include fever, swollen lymph nodes, chills, headache, muscle aches and fatigue. Not everyone will have these symptoms, but everyone will experience a rash or sores. The rash can affect the skin of the face, arms, legs and torso, as well as the genitals, in and/or around the anus (butthole), or in the mouth. Initially, the rash can look like a pimple with an area of red skin underneath it. From there, the pimples can get a little bigger, form indentations, and fill with fluid or pus. Typically, they then scab. It usually takes two to four weeks to heal over with fresh skin. OHA recommends people who test positive for monkeypox or who are awaiting test results isolate at home to avoid spread of infection to others. There are additional precautions they and household members can take to further reduce transmission risk that can be found on OHA’s If a clinician recommends that you receive an Orthopoxvirus test page. The CDC also has information on its Preventing Spread to Others page. People who suspect they have monkeypox should contact their health care provider to let them know before going in to be seen. Those who don’t have a health care provider can call 2-11 to get help finding a clinic or health care provider, or reach out to their local public health authority to find a clinic or provider.
The pediatric case is one of 116 presumptive and confirmed cases of monkeypox in Oregon, which also includes 112 men and four women. Illness onset ranges from June 7 to August 9. The cases are in seven of Oregon’s 36 counties: 4 in Clackamas 1 in Columbia 1 in Coos • 20 in Lane • 1 in Marion • 73 in Multnomah • 16 in Washington About 27.6% of cases identify as Hispanic/Latino.Nationwide,there are nearly 12,700 cases in 49 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.

DEAR ABBY
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been together for 12 years and our relationship has started to suffer. We no longer have dates, we don’t spend any time talking with each other unless it’s about the kids, and the intimacy has faded. A year ago, I asked him to go to a counselor with me. I asked him to be the one to set it up, as I’m always in charge of doctor appointments, bill paying, etc. I wanted him to show he was “all in” to help fix our marriage. I have reminded him to do it several times, but he hasn’t. He claims to love me and to want our marriage to thrive, yet he does nothing. Now that the intimacy is completely gone, he all of a sudden wants to work on things. Go figure. I feel hurt and rejected and like throwing in the towel, but we have built a life together and I do love him. I don’t think therapy will work because I’ll feel like I manipulated him to get there by withholding the intimacy.Ifeelsad and defeated. The man I married is gone, replaced by this person who is just going through the mo tions and using me to take care of his kids and clean his house. Please advise. -- ON HOLD IN ARKANSAS DEAR ON HOLD: Ask your doctor for a referral to a psychologist and make an appointment -- for YOUR SELF -- for help rebuilding your sagging self-esteem. Because you long ago as sumed the role of organiz er-arranger in your marriage, it was unrealistic to expect your husband to suddenly pick up the ball. He may not know how. Once you are stronger emotionally, sched ule those sessions with a licensed marriage and family therapist, as you have all the other appointments during your marriage. Your rela tionship with your husband does need work, and this is the path to repairing it.

DEAR ABBY: My fiance and I have a child together. I’m 31, and he’s 16 years older. Sometimes I don’t know if our relationship will work out in the long run because he’s so stubborn and set in his ways. I’m more laid-back and easygoing. What is bothering me the most right now is his mother constantly asks him for money. It’s not just for little things; it’s for roof and furnace repair and prob lems with her water heater, washer/dryer, stove and A/C. She’s married, and her husband works. He should be able to provide her with the things they need for their house. It’s not like my fiance is rich. He isn’t. I have tried talking to him about it, but it just ends up in an explosive argument. It’s like, why should I even try to save for our family’s future and the things we need for our house if he’s going to keep giving it to his mother every time she asks? Please help. -- ALL FOR MAMA DEAR ALL: You wrote that YOU are trying to save for your family’s future. Is your fiance giving his moth er money that you have been earning, or is it his? If it is his, he can do with it as he pleases -- at least until after the wedding. If he is fiscally responsible, he should also be trying to save for the future. However, if he isn’t, recognize that the pattern he has established may not be a sound one for you and your child, and plan accordingly.

• Regulation: When it comes to permits and environmental regulations for new facilities, the semiconductor industry tells us it wants a strong partnership to aggressively pursue greenhouse gas reductions and other plan et-friendly measures. They point out that other states offer a more streamlined approach that is more in sync with the speed of the market.“Oregon has a once-in-a-gen eration opportunity to advance our vision for equitable economic prosperity, the report’s summa ry concludes. “We need to act quickly to preserve and grow our global leadership in this import ant industry that anchors Ore gon’s economy.” The report was released at Portland Community College Aug. 17. The event at PCC’s Willow Creek Center in Washington County featured speeches by U.S. Senator Ron Wyden, Governor Kate Brown, U.S. Congress woman Suzanne Bonamici, Portland General Electric CEO Maria Pope and PCC President Dr. Adrien Bennings. The group discussed the release of the much anticipated Oregon Semiconduc tor Competitiveness Task Force report titled, Opportunity.”“SeizingSinceMarch,thetask force has analyzed the state’s semi conductor industry and how it can continue to thrive, grow, and create prosperity and opportunity. It centered on key factors that impact semiconductor manufac turing, Oregon’s competitiveness in those areas, and options to po sition the state to attract industry investment.“Thework of the task force is a jumpstart to a unique opportu nity,” Bennings said. “Our work provides insight into industry impact, advanced manufactur ing needs, and educational and workforce dynamics. Overall, the recommendations are intended to advance collaborative efforts across the state to solidify our position as a global leader in the semiconductor industry and create a sustainable future workforce.”“Whatisbeing done today is that we’re releasing a battle plan to build an even stronger chip industry that continues generating jobs here in the Silicon Forest and across the state,” Sen. Wyden said. “The major center of chip research and development is Washington County. This is the major center of chip research, and the fabs that are being built in America depend on what is going on in Oregon.”

Early one evening in February 1946, Harry Truman summoned the White House’s chief usher to the second-floor Oval Study. He pointed out the window through the South Portico to the Wash ington Monument and Potomac River“That’sbeyond.amagnificent sight,” he said. Then he dropped his bombshell. “I’d like to take better advantage of the view. I’m going to put a balcony there.” It was the historical equivalent of the Great San Francisco Earth quake. While every president had made changes to the White House’s interior, some small and some significant, none had touched its iconic exterior since 1829, when Andrew Jackson had added the north portico to keep visitors from getting wet on rainy days. (Thomas Jefferson had suggested that improvement as far back as 1807.)
Simply put, presidents didn’t monkey around with the White House’s appearance. Period. Harry Truman was no fool. He knew his proposal would ignite a firestorm. So, he had his ratio nale ready to share with Con gress, the news media and the public. But he also had a deeply personal reason for doing it that he kept totally to himself. First, the experts were on his side. They said adding a balco ny would make the mansion’s south front more architecturally pleasing. In layman’s terms, long vertical lines (such as the original six stone columns that survived the Brits burning the place in 1814) look better when broken up by a horizontal line across the middle. Such as a balcony. (Wink, wink.) Then there were the savings. In the pre-air-conditioning era, the mansion’s first floor sweltered during Washington’s tropical summers. Each year ugly canvas awnings were installed over the ground-level windows to provide a bit of relief. Not only were they eyesores but they were also dust magnets. Hauled down in the fall, they were so filthy they couldn’t be used again. Meaning a new batch had to be purchased every summer. By 1946, that was costing the government $20,000 a decade — nearly $305,000 today. Adding a balcony would save Uncle Sam money in the long run. Democrat Truman didn’t bother asking the Republican Congress for the $16,000 to fund the project, since “no” was a foregone conclusion. He came up with the cash by making cuts to the president’s household account. Then, in typical Harry Truman fashion, he built his balcony. When the fuss finally died down, even the critics grudgingly admitted it was an improvement. And the American people gave it a thumbs up. The balcony became so widely respected, in fact, Republicans jokingly “thanked” Truman for improving the house for the man whom they were sure would replace him two years later, Thomas Dewey. But as we all know, things didn’t turn out that way. Just days after Truman’s legendary 1948 upset re-election, he was forced to move out of the very house he had fought so hard to keep occupying. Decades of overbuilding and slipshod repairs had turned the White House into such a structural mess it was in dire danger of immediate collapse. After inspecting the old place, engineers ordered to him get out — at that very minute. (That’s how extremely close we came to losing the beloved landmark.)

The framers’ logic here was sound. Local communities usually (but not always) have a better handle on what their government should be doing than distant federal officials–-even when local sentiments diverge from the national consensus.
The Supreme Court, moreover, in 1803 in Marbury v. Madison held that unelected federal judges, rather than democratically elected officials, define the constitution and federal statutes. As then-Chief Justice John Marshall wrote for the court: “It is emphatically the duty of the Judicial Department to say what the law is.”

The framers, in fact, specifically addressed this question in the constitution: Lifetime appointments insulate the justices from the vagaries and pressures of majority opinion. So, no, the court straying from public unprecedenteddramatically—isopinion—evenneithernorimproper.
What’s really going on, instead, is that some people get mad when the court rejects majority viewpoints they happen to favor. The court starts to get “dangerous” and “reactionary” when this happens. Yet those same people often cheer when the court rejects majority opinions they disfavor. It’s of course fine to strongly disagree with the court. There are sound legal arguments against what the court did in both cases. And there are compelling prudential arguments against the court being so proactive given the fragile state of American democracy. But going against public opinion in big cases doesn’t mean the court has gone rogue. And there’s nothing illegitimate about the court sometimes siding with the minority view. That is, indeed, how the system is designed to work.
William Cooper is an attorney and the author of Stress Test: How Donald Trump Threatens American Democracy. His writings have appeared in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and San Francisco Chronicle, among others. take For North Bend City Council, it’s the refusal to involve the Parks Committee on decisions involving city parks. In May, City Admin istrator Milliron emailed councilors on a resident’s request for a park bench in her son’s memory. He recommend ed council refer creation of a memorial bench policy to the Parks Committee, which meets only upon a referral.Over the next six weeks and six council meetings, no councilor said anything publicly on the referral. I finally placed the matter on the July 25 work session agenda. Council took no action. One councilor said that the matter should be left to the Parks Master Plan update, several years out, I brought the referral back on the August 8 agenda, and said we should have a policy and the Parks Committee was up to the task. They have not met since September 2021. Mr. Milliron then said that he had addressed the matter. He and the parks superin tendent chose a bench de sign and drafted a request form, available on the city website.So,mission accom plished, but what other designs might have been considered by the Parks Committee? Would me morial trees be an option? Other thoughts and ideas? To recap, Mr. Milliron recommended referral to the Parks Committee, but changed his approach after the council declined action over two months. Ironi cally, another councilor thanked Mr. Milliron on hisLastinitiative.September, the Parks Committee was split on Mr. Milliron’s disc golf pilot project in Ferry Road Park; it was to sunset in October. A petition in opposition gathered 400 signatures; Mr. Milliron threatened the initiating committee member with an ethics complaint. There was no subsequent council debate on the pilot project. No one put it on the agen da. The tee-offs now have concrete pads. My resolution that pilot projects need council approval failed to get a council vote even after I revised it, upon a council or’s request, to apply only to city parks. Council elections are just around the corner. Consider voting for candi dates who will rise to the occasion, include our city committees in decisions, and exercise oversight.

The executive mansion was eventually completely gutted and rebuilt inside. One of the few features that survived intact: The Truman Balcony. It was so wellbuilt it wasn’t touched during the two-year renovation. Thirteen presidents have lived in the White House since Truman left it, and many said the balcony was one of their favorite spots. Besides providing one of the capital’s most impressive views, its breezy informality is a welcome break from the official stuffiness inside. The Truman Balcony is, quite literally, the White House’s back porch. Which brings us to Harry Truman’s real, secret reason for building it in the first place. Truman’s passion for his wife, Bess, is one of the presidency’s greatest love stories. He fell in love with her the first time he saw her in elementary school in Independence, Mo., in 1890 and didn’t stop loving her until the day he died in 1972. While Bess loved Harry in return, she hated the spotlight that accompanied the presidency. Though she admirably performed her duties as first lady, she jumped at any chance to return to their home in Independence, where she spent the entire sum mer of 1945, leaving a lonely Harry pining for her in the White House. Their daughter, Margaret, wrote, “One of the chief plea sures of 219 North Delaware Street (the Independence house) was its porches, particularly the back porch …” where the family whiled away summer evenings “secure from prying eyes.” The Trumans sat there for hours, reading, listening to baseball on the radio (Bess was a huge fan), and playing cards while Bess savored the privacy. Since Harry’s job didn’t allow him to share the back porch with his wife back home, he decided to bring the back porch to Wash ington. Harry Truman added the Truman Balcony in the hope it would lure his wife into staying with him during the summer months.Butit didn’t work. Much as Bess appreciated the gesture, and genuinely liked the new balcony, it wasn’t the same as the one at home. And nothing, nothing at all, could overcome her burning desire to flee Washington, with or without her husband. The summer of 1946 found her back on North Delaware Street. The things we do for love. Harry Truman wasn’t the first husband to go to great lengths in an attempt to keep the Missus happy. And he wasn’t the first to experience an Epic Fail at it, either.But it’s a good thing for all of us he tried.
The Supreme Court and Public Opinion
Phone:
2134 Rayburn House Office Building Washington,
The Supreme Court’s recent rulings on abortions and guns shook the American body politic. As Chief Justice John Roberts wrote in his concurrence, the court’s decision to eliminate the constitutional right to an abortion was “a serious jolt to the legal system.” In another systemic jolt the same week, the court struck down New York gun regulations during a national emergency of gun violence. The court’s critics have been scathing. A “rogue” Supreme Court, many say, has warped the constitution and pitted America’s legal system against public opinion. Writing in The New York Times, Jamelle Bouie asserts that a “reckless, reactionary and power-hungry” Supreme Court isn’t supposed to “exist above the constitutional system.” And The Economist laments that a “less exceptional” America now has “a set of federal laws that do not reflect what Americans actually want.” Even Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan, who dissented in both cases, warns that if “the court loses all connection with the public and the public sentiment, that’s a dangerous thing for Concernsdemocracy.”rundeep. But the fact that some of the court’s constitutional rulings deviate from national public opinion is neither new nor surprising. The constitution, in fact, emphatically rejects the idea of majoritarian rule. The Bill of Rights, for example, enumerates fundamental rights that protect minorities against the majority. The First Amendment prevents the government from abridging “the freedom of speech, or of the press.” This provision broadly protects citizens’ free expression, including the most controversial and least popular forms of speech. The Fourth Amendment likewise protects citizens from “unreasonable searches and seizures.” No matter how unpopular a defendant is, therefore, the accused has protections in court against evidence improperly seized by law enforcement. Basic principles of federalism also run counter to the notion of majoritarian control. If a minority of states have unpopular preferences— even one among fifty—those preferences control within their borders unless the constitution affirmatively says otherwise.

SPORTS TUESDAY, AUGUST 23, 2022 | theworldlink.com a gallon.”Thatcombination makes Skar latos feel Oregon is primed for a change, in the Fourth District and across the state. In his district, the biggest opportunity is Skarla tos will not be facing DeFazio. “I thought it was a great opportunity, or course,” he said. “He’s been there 36 years. It’s hard to beat someone with that kind of incumbency. He’s been there longer than I’ve been alive.”With DeFazio out of the pic ture, Oregon Labor Commission er Val Hoyle won a crowded race to win the Democrat primary. Hoyle has been endorsed by DeFazio and both of Oregon’s U.S. senators. At only 29, Skarlatos is one of the younger candidates running for Congress, but he sees that as a bonus, not a negative. And he fully believes 2022 is the time for Republicans to make a move in “PeopleOregon. are excited,’ he said. “We’ve had one-party rule in Oregon coming up on 40 years. People are excited about change. Republican or Democrat, people are ready for change. America is tooSkarlatospolarized.”said the Fourth Dis trict is up for grabs, and his chal lenge is visiting enough voters to come out ahead. Last week, he made move through the district on what he called the “On Duty with Alek” district-wide motor cycle tour. In North Bend, he stopped and North Bend Lanes to visit with voters. “This time, we’re making a concerted effort to reach every corner of the district,” Skarlatos said. “So, if people want to talk to me, they can. It’s been a lot of fun. I learned a lot and faced a lot of tough questions.” Skarlatos said while talking to voters, he hears over and over how the government has made their lives more difficult. “It’s kitchen-table issuesoverall the cost of living,” he said. “It’s not getting better. Peo ple are concerned with the where the country is going as a whole.’ Skarlatos said while he dis agreed with many of DeFazio’s political views, he understands why the district supported him so Helong.said DeFazio presented himself as a moderate Democrat and ensured his staff provided excellent constituent services. “Val Hoyle does not have the same reputation,” Skarlatos said. “She had a pretty extreme voting record from her time in the Leg islature.”Another advantage Skarlatos has right now, according the reporting from other media, is significant money in the bank. Thanks largely to having no op ponents in the primary, Skarlatos said he is in good shape to spend what is needed to compete in the district.“Wehave support from small donors across the country, which is great,” he said. “Val Hoyle gets 43% of her funding from PACs and special interest groups.”Sowhat does Skarlatos have to do to pull off the upset? “We’re doing it right now, talking to voters, meeting them in their community,” he said. “I’m here to learn. I just want to bring balance back to Oregon.”

and organizations that stretch across the country. Joining forces to urge the city to go slow in ordering the dem olition of the former Marshfield Sun building have been Philip Dole, an architectural professor at the University of Oregon; John L. Frisbee III, a western representative of the Washing ton-based National Trust for Historic Preservation; George B. Abdill, Douglas County Museum curator; and others. The issue is scheduled for discussion at tonight’s Coos Bay city council meeting. The former newspaper office and pressroom at 1049 N. Front St., is now owned by William Luse, descendant of the original Inowner.“ACentury of Coos’ and Cur ry,” historians Emil R. Peterson and Alfred Powers said, “The Marshfield Sun was established in 1891 by Jesse A. Luse … The Sun started as a seven-column, four page Thursday weekly. Independent later turned to Populist …” The historians said the weekly had an unusual record. “This paper never changed hands but was published by him until his death, July 2, 1944, a period of 53 years. “It was hand-set and printed on a Washington hand press during its entire existence, probably another record for its Thetime.”press, type and other equipment are housed in the old five-sided building on North Front Street, the structure under discussion. Dole, also chairman of the Lane County Historic Preservation Committee, said in a letter to City Manager Harold Leedom that the building’s “unique form, its earlier function and its significant location on the waterfront combine to give all the appealing features of a major landmark.” Chess popularity soars in Coos, Curry; club may form Chess boards are selling like hotcakes in the Bay Area and most of the library books on chess are out. There is still at least one book to be borrowed: It’s “Chess Is An Easy Game” and it’s stowed away in Southwestern Oregon Community College library. Per haps there is a good reason for its being there — Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky by now have fairly well convinced everyone that chess is not all that easy. The last change in rules was made about 500 years ago. Certainly, it can be said about chess that it’s ahead of back gammon, Chinese checkers and Monopoly in the Bay Area. So far, no one has started a club for those games. But there is a move under way to begin a chess club, according to Dick Kimker of Northwest Fisheries. He and a number of other players, including Bob Barnes and Bob Messman of Factory Warehouse and Doug Thompson of Pacific Finance, are interested in getting togeth er with people who would like to Doplay.they follow the world cham pionship games between Amer ican Bobby Fischer and Russian Boris Spassky? No, they deem it too intricate — “skull stuff.” They “just play.”
“I’ve never seen it this hot. It was a record for this day,” said Tom Richmond of the North Bend Weather Station.

Ole Paulson is held in jail on arson charges Voluntarily confesses that he set fire to his own dance pavil ion at FearedCoaledosomeone else would suffer for crime Is man who for years bore high reputation for honesty among his many friends Some think him insane Friends who knew him best believe that he may be mentally unbalanced — can scarcely believe his own story COQUILLE — Ole Paulson, who for years has been a respected citizen of Coquille and who enjoyed a high reputation for honesty and business integrity, came to the sheriff’s office yes terday and gave himself up and voluntarily confessed that he set fire to his own dance hall at Coaledo which was destroyed two months ago. The place was burned down on a Saturday evening. The loss was estimated to be about $8000. The place was insured for $6000. The insurance had not yet been paid. The state fire marshal’s deputies had made an investigation of the fire be lieving that it was of incendiary origin and the payment of the insurance was held back pend ing the final report of the state fire marshal’s office. Excellent reputation Friends of Paulson could scarcely believe his story that he himself had burned down the building to get the insur ance. Even had he collected it he would suffer a loss in the dif ference between the insurance and the cost of the building. While it was suspected by the officers that someone set fire to the structure no one suspected Paulson himself and had he not confessed his reputation for honesty was sufficiently strong that suspicion would never have been directed toward him. Paulson is 40 years of age and is unmarried. He worked in logging camps for a long time and was very careful with his money. He saved his earnings and loaned out and invested his money and is worth probably In$30,000.confessing he said that he feared someone else would be arrested for the act and he did not want to see anyone else suffer for what he had done. Some believe that Paulson is demented, claiming that in his rational mind he could not have been guilty of such an act.

SWOCC’s 10-year analysis includes Curry participation A Southwestern Oregon Community College feasibility study begun in mid-1970 will recommend that Curry County enter the college district as part of the district’s long-range Northerngoals. Curry voters rejected district participation in 1962, after being part of the original district concept. Western Lane voters also voted out of the district in the same year. However, the college hopes Curry will see the need for providing post-high school education to its youths. The SWOCC study will be submitted to the state board of education around January as part of the college’s 10-year progress Notanalysis.wishing to refuel the 1961 college district boundary battle that ended with Curry voters withdrawing from the district, SWOCC president Jack Brook ins said the recommendation is not an attempt to “pressure Curry County into the district.” Brookins added that the initi ation of the study in mid-1970 was made because of requests by several Curry County civic groups and a number of individuals following a report released earlier the same year by the 1970 Oregon Educational Coordinating Council. The council’s report ranked Curry County 26th in the state in the ratio of persons 18-29 years of age enrolled in post high school education courses. The same report listed Coos County eighth. 20 years -2002 Heat records fall in western Oregon PORTLAND (AP) — Records were accumulating faster than beads of sweat Tuesday as at least 10 Oregon cities had af ternoon temperatures of more than 100 degrees. More than a dozen cities in the western part of the state set records, including Portland, which declared an “orange” air pollution warning because of high ozone levels. The air quality warnings mean that state officials expect high temperatures and low-level winds, which mix with auto exhaust and other pollutants to create high levels of smog. In Medford, smoke form forest fires mixed with the state’s worst heat — 108 degrees — to create breathing woes. “To add insult to injury, we’re probably looking at some high ozone numbers here as well,” said John Becker, an Oregon Department of Environmental Quality air quality expert in Medford. “Right now, the best advice is, if you’ve got smoke around you, try to take it easy.” How hot was it? An unusual thermal trough causing a weather inversion layer sent temperatures soaring to record highs in North Bend/Coos Bay area Tuesday Accordingmorning. to Meteorologist Frederick Bunnag of the Nation al Weather Service in Medford, the temperature reached an official high of 90 degrees at the North Bend Airport, but thermometers around the area reflected even higher tempera Thetures.Umpqua Bank temperature gauge in Bunker Hill read 101 degrees at 12:30 p.m. and the Klamath First Bank gauge in Coos Bay read 95 degrees at the same time.
Another record for Cave Dog Not even a mother moose could keep the Coos Bay native known as Cave Dog from his newest climbing record. Ted “Cave Dog” Keizer broke the speed-climbing record for the White Mountains in New Hampshire by nearly three days over the weekend, climbing the 48 peaks over 4,000 feet in 3 days, 17 hours and 21 minutes. “Things went really well,” Keizer said Wednesday as he recov ered from the venture. “We had absolutely fabulous weather. It was a little hot on the last day, pretty humid, but otherwise we had excellent weather.” Keizer, 31, set his second speed-climbing record of the summer, having earlier bested the record for the Adirondacks in New York, and now turns his focus to September, when he will try to break the record for the 35 peaks over 3,500 feet in the Catskills Mountains of New “IfYork.Ido that, that will be the triple feat,” he said. “That would be an absolute coup.” The records for all three mountain ranges were held by different people. The record for the New Hamp shire 4,000-footers had been 6 days, 15 hours and 30 minutes, set by George and Tom Fitch in Keizer1973.started his effort to break the record on Friday morning and got off to what he called an amazing start, hiking 60 miles on the first day and reaching the summit of 13 Keizerpeaks. estimates he hiked about 43 miles the second day and 45 the third. The entire four-day hike was about 180 miles.
