Brookings, Oregon

Curry County voters hear from local candidates voters, share their backgrounds and answer questions from the audience.

The forums included those vying for city council positions, the Curry County commissioner position and Oregon State House district 1.

The candidates for the Oregon State House seat are Republican incumbent Representative David Brock Smith and Democratic Party candidate Bret Cecil.

Community members across Curry County got to know local candidates running for contested political races last week through a series of voters forums organized

by The League of Women Voters of Curry County.

The voters forums – held in Port Orford, Gold Beach and Brookings – were set up so each candidate could introduce themselves to

Smith touted himself as a “work across the aisle”Republican – although he said he is a strong Second-Amendment supporter and a pro-life supporter.

“These are contentious issues when it comes to the state,” he said.

The Republican incumbent said he has worked to represent the needs of Curry County during his time in office.

“I work hard to make sure your voices are heard, and not only that, that actions are taken so that

healthcare, childcare and other issues are worked on and resources are brought to bear to help make that happen,” Smith said during his closing statement at the voters forum.

Democrat candidate Bret Cecil says he will work to be a voice of the people if elected. He pledged to hold town meetings throughout Curry County during his time in office.

“One of the reasons I got involved in politics is because we

have a lot of smart people here that have some really good ideas but our voices go unheard and unnoticed.

So I want to work with you to make sure your voices get heard in the district and in Salem and anywhere we can affect change,” Cecil said.

The Democrat said he is a strong believer in American democracy and wants to be a part of that.

“We need to pay really close attention to the fact that our American democracy is under threat right Please see CANDIDATES Page A4

The Brookings Women's March was part of the national Women's March happening nationwide. Port Orford community members also hosted a march at Battle Rock Park. Below, Suzie Ruiz speaks words of encouragement to participants at the Women's March held on Saturday Oct. 8 in downtown Brookings.

Brookings participates in nationwide Women’s March

A group of women, children and a handful of men adorned signs, American flags, pride flags, beads and more as they marched through downtown Brookings on Saturday.

The group participating in the women’s march assembled in front of the democratic headquarters in Brookings on Saturday at 11 a.m.

Several speakers addressed the crowd, saying they were proud to support other women and stand up for their rights.

Some women who spoke at the march said they fought for women’s reproductive rights 50 years ago.

“We are the only Western Country moving backwards. We live in unprecedented times,” said Teresa Lawson, a Brookings resident who is running for city council.

The Brookings city council race is shaping up to be an interesting one.

Three candidates are vying for the mayor position. At least one woman will be elected to the council. There is a possibility of having the first women’s majority on the council. There will also be at least one new person serving on the council.

Mayor Ron Hedenskog is seeking re-election but he must get more votes than his two opponents to keep his seat. The seasoned mayor candidate is running against Anthony Bond – who says he is running solely to stop Project Turnkey, a homeless shelter that was being proposed earlier this year – and Candice Michel, who has a longtime history of community engagement in Brookings. The Brookings mayor position is a two-year term.

During a recent voter’s forum

INDEX

at the Chetco Library, Mayor Hedenskog touted himself as the candidate with the most experience and continuity. His first stint with the city council dates back to 2007 and he has been involved with the city government on and off since then.

“I think I’ve got another twoyears in me. I would like to stay active,” he said.

The mayor said the city has recently taken out a $30 million dollar grant/loan that he would like

to follow up with.

“We’ve had projects that have been neglected for thirty-some years because our infrastructure were underfunded,” Hedenskog said. “I’ve tried to turn that around the whole time I have been with the city council and we have made good strides. This new loan is going to finish it off and I would like to be part of that and meet the goals that were set 15 years ago.”

The four candidates hoping to replace Peter DeFazio in the U.S. House shared their thoughts on a variety of issues during a candidate forum Thursday.

The virtual forum allowed the candidates to show their differences on a number of issues important to the Fourth Congressional District, Oregon and the country.

Republican Alek Skarlatos and Democrat Val Hoyle are the top candidates in the race, but they will also face a challenge from Mike Beilstein with the Green Party and Libertarian Levi Leatherberry.

During opening statements the four candidates introduced themselves and some of their thoughts on the race.

"The two major parties have a lock on political parties, but they're the same brand of political power," Beilstein said.

"The Green Party represents the opposition to the controlled political party. The Green Party represents the power of the Earth and peace."

Hoyle, the current labor commissioner in Oregon, said people in the district know her and can trust her.

"People here know me because I've lived and worked in this community for 22 years," she said. "In this debate, you get to make some very clear choices because there's a vast difference between the candidates. I have always stood up for working people, I have always worked for jobs. You know me, I've delivered time and time again for this district."

Leatherberry said it is time to give a third-party candidate a chance.

"I'm a local farmer, an independent and a libertarian as well," he said. "Both parties, financially, are the same. I'm trying to find an alternative. I'm a farmer, I've seen how my land changes by their policies, how my ability to feed my family changes by their policies. You can't be funded by the problem and create solutions at the same time."

Skarlatos, who served in the National Guard before running for office, said Democrats in charge right now have done little for the district.

"I saw that our district was hurting. We're the poorest congressional district in the state of Oregon," Skarlatos said. "We've had Democrat leadership in our Please see CONGRESS Page A2

district for 48 years, and it's time for change. I think I can represent this district best because I am the only one incentivized to work with both parties.

"This is a very competitive seat. At the end of the day, when I served in Afghanistan, I didn't ask my squad mates if they were Republican or Democrat, I just concentrated on the job."

The candidates then answered questions from the moderator and the audience listening online.

How would you sum up Peter DeFazio's time in Congress?

"Peter DeFazio is not only a friend but has been a political mentor," Hoyle said. "I've knocked on tens of thousands of doors in this district, and people say I only vote for two Democrats, you and Peter DeFazio."

"Me and Alek grew up under his rule. I never knew Oregon without DeFazio," Leatherberry said. "So some of the problems I grew up with were because of DeFazio. He has a good reputation, but when it comes to action, he's the head of the infrastructure committee.

The words are great, but the actions are getting more and more corrupt every year."

"I think he did a great job of bringing money back into the district," Skarlatos said.

"That being said, I would have liked to have seen him do more with the Port of Coos Bay and do more to make sure we're not the poorest district in the state."

"I know him very well and consider him a friend," Beilstein said. "Of all the progressive Democrats in Congress, I consider him the best. It took a lot of pressure to get him to support the Medicare for all Bill and he continued to support military action, when I don't think he should have."

Who won the 2020 presidential election? What can be done to bolster American's confidence in

CURRY COASTAL PILOT

elections?

"I think Biden won in 2020 and I don't have a problem saying that," Leatherberry said. "A lot of the corruption happens in the primary, not in the general. If we want to improve it, we can take money out of elections."

"Gas is $5.50 a gallon in Oregon, inflation is 8.8 %, we lost 13 service members in Afghanistan," Skarlatos said. "Unfortunately, Joe Biden is president of the United States and we are suffering because of it."

"Biden won the election," Beilstein said. "One thing the Green Party has supported is rank choice voting. That would ensure whoever wins has majority support."

"I absolutely know that Joe Biden won the election and one of the reason I'm running is I think our democracy is on the verge because of the deniers," Hoyle said. "I think we should have paper ballots.

I'd like to see vote by mail expanded."

The Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade and Sen. Lindsey Graham authored a bill banning abortion after 15 weeks nationwide. How do you feel about that bill?

"I would not vote for Lindsey Graham's bill and I would not vote for any bill that bans abortion nationwide," Skarlatos said. "The Supreme Court literally just ruled it's a state issue, and I believe in state's rights."

"I think Graham's bill has no chance on abortion," Beilstein said. "I believe it was virtue signaling. I support the rights of women and all people to get the medical care they need."

"This is a personal issue for me. I'm the only person here who's been pregnant, given birth and lost a pregnancy," Hoyle said. "I am unequivocally pro-choice.

Women's healthcare needs don't change because they cross state lines."

"I support abortion. This district supports abortion," Leatherberry said. "Those rights on a state level actually make more sense. The question you have to ask is

when Democrats had super majorities they did not codify it?"

Do you support access to affordable healthcare?

"I've supported the Medicare for All approach for more than 20 years," Beilstein said. "I would actually prefer a socialized medicine program as they have in Cuba or Britain. A good way to achieve single payer is to take Medicare and reduce the age requirement gradually."

"I think that Americans should have access to Medicare," Hoyle said. "When people don't have health coverage, it makes our communities sicker."

"Val Hoyle was just talking abut healthcare. She's one of the biggest recipients of Pharma money in this state and this race," Leatherberry said. "You cannot have affordable healthcare when you're on the team increasing costs."

"This is a huge issue and it's been a long time coming," Skarlatos said. "I am in favor of the Affordable Care Act. That being said, I believe there's some fixes that could be had to lower costs.

I think we need transparency in medicine."

What roles does the federal government play in handling homelessness in Oregon?

"I think the federal government has walked away from its obligations when working with communities," Hoyle said. "In rural communities and urban communities there are different solutions."

"One of the big ways is to go after price," Leatherberry said. "If you look at housing prices and why they're going up, it's not just supply and demand. There's big actors buying up homes and increasing prices."

"We need to cut out investment banks buying houses and we need to cut out foreign interest buying houses," Skarlatos said. "On homelessness, that 's a different issue with mental health.

The federal government has a role, the state government has a role and local govern-

ment has a role."

"The cost of housing continues to go up much more rapidly than wages," Beilstein said. "To take the finance aspect out of housing would be a good way to start increasing the availability of housing. I think public housing, where it exists, has worked very well."

Do you support the return of the expanded child tax credit?

"At least on face value, I would support it," Skarlatos said. "I don't believe in punishing people for getting married and having children.

I think we should encourage it."

"I think something we've observed is one of the best ways to eliminate poverty is to give people money," Beilstein said. "The child tax credit did that and it resulted in a reduction of poverty. So definitely, I would support it."

"When we had the child tax credit, we halved child poverty in this country," Hoyle said. "These are kids that are not going to bed hungry. That is absolutely something we should invest in."

"The Democrat Party is actually really good about this," Leatherberry said. "The data shows that eliminating child poverty is good for society."

What role should US play in Russia-Ukraine conflict?

"I am firmly opposed

to sending Americans to fight foreign wars, but what happened was Russia invaded a sovereign country," Hoyle said. "I think as a world leader in coalition with other world leaders, we made the decision to send support to Ukraine and that was the right decision."

"I think helping Ukraine is good because Russia shouldn't have invaded, but I think staying there is putting money in corrupt politician's pockets," Leatherberry said.

"I think if we could find a way to support the people and not politicians, it would be a good thing."

"I served in Afghanistan for nine months, and I know what long drawn out conflicts can turn into," Skarlatos said. "I'm concerned about expanding our role in Ukraine. We already probably have boots on the ground in Ukraine, and we are sending them billions of dollars in foreign aide and I don't think we should expand our role any more."

"Since 2014, the United States has supported a war in the break-way region in the Donbas," Beilstein said. "It was not unprovoked. Very soon after the war started, there were negotiations between Ukraine and Russia and the United States and Britain stepped in and said no you can't do this. It is a proxy war for the United States."

Record number of illegal immigrants have been

encountered in 2022. What should the United States do about this?

"The current immigration system needs to be reformed," Skarlatos said.

"We cannot allow that many people into this country, not only unvetted but unhoused.

We need more funding for Border Patrol, and we need to prosecute those coming illegally and encourage them to come legally."

"I think the United States is creating this crisis through the poverty and warfare we have created in Latin America," Beilstein said. "It's not the poor governments of Guatemala or El Salvador, it's the United States that has created this problem."

"My husband immigrated here when he was a teenager and I'm a second-generation American," Hoyle said.

"There have been two comprehensive reform bills that had substantial money for border security.

Republicans killed both. We need to stop pointing fingers and ensure those people who are refugees are treated with support."

"Our relationship with these countries has a huge impact on people coming here because they can't live at home," Leatherberry said.

"There's a black market in America for low-wage workers."

Voters in the Fourth Congressional District will choose their next representative during the general election Nov. 8.

CURRY COASTAL PILOT

She asked voters to “imagine a future that doesn’t pit us against each other… get passed vitriol and chest beating and see the best in each other.”

Two candidates – Diana Cooper and Andy Martin – are challenging each other for City Council No. 3 position, another four-year term.

Both candidates are new to city government and both candidates grew up in Brookings.

“One of the main reasons I am here is for representation. I see a gap – and when there are gaps in representation and when sections of the community don’t get involved, we all suffer,” Cooper said.

“There are groups in our community that don’t have a sense of belonging and thus do not feel motivated to contribute. These are the groups that I’m closest too and I want to bring them into the conversation. I want our government to adequately represent its citizens and currently we are not doing a good job,” she said.

Cooper said she understands for-profit, nonprofit and government organizations and how they contribute to the economy.

“I run a nonprofit organization in this community and founded it specifically because my commitment to this community,” she said.

Anthony Bond is a newcomer to city government.

He said he was spurred to run for office to make sure Project Turnkey, a project that was being proposed to house the homeless earlier this year, doesn’t happen.

“They said the people of Brookings had no say… it made me angry,” Bond said.

Bond said he wants to improve the negative impacts to the city caused by the homeless and “stop people who fight due process.”

“If you support me, great please vote for me Nov. 8. If not, you have two other fine candidates you can vote for,” Bond said during his closing speech at the voter’s forum.

Mayoral candidate Candice Michel said she is running for the Brookings office because she loves living in the community.

“I’ve never lived in such a welcoming and generous place and I want to preserve that. I want to help us get past anger and insults to solve the issues that cause fear and frustration,” Michel said.

“I want us to remember we are not without resources. We can find and identify resources by coming at it from a different perspective and incorporate those resources into our community,” she said.

Brookings mayor and city council candidates attended a League of Women's Voters forum on Saturday. Oct. 8. Pictured are, from left, Diana Cooper, Andy Martin, Ron Hedenskog, Anthony Bond, Candice Michel, Michelle Morosky and Teresa Lawson. business owner who is running for the city council for the first time.

“I work for myself. I wake up at 4 a.m. every morning and If I don’t wake up I don’t make any money. I know what it’s like to manage a budget and make smart decisions. If you make the wrong decision you aren’t going to be in business anymore,” Martin said.

“I think it’s really important that the City of Brookings has someone on the council that understands what it’s like to operate a small business,” he said.

“That’s one of the reasons I’m running for city council.

I think it’s important the city have a diverse council.”

Two women are running for City Council No. 4 position. Teresa Lawson is running against incumbent Michelle Morosky for the four-year term on the council.

Lawson has an extensive financial background and is a self-described “numbers geek.”

“The City of Brookings is taking on a $30 million grant/loan. That’s going to be paid back over 40 years and if we don’t have somebody on the city council – talk about representation – that knows how to dig into those

numbers, we are going to be in trouble,” “We need people who really understands this,” she said.

“It’s all about the money. We know that. It’s always about the money, and we have to make the money work the best for the people.”

Morosky is running to keep her seat on the council’s No. 4 position. Her contribution to the Brookings City Government started on the planning commission and she was later appointed to fill an empty seat on the council.

Morosky said her family has a long history in Brookings.

“This is my hometown and

I am deeply invested in our city,” she said.

Morosky said her background in real estate has been helpful in her roles at the planning commission and city council. She said she’s been involved with projects to improve the downtown and wants to continue to address Brooking’s housing issues.

She also said she wants to bring services to the area including working on youth issues with substance abuse.

“I have a track record of supporting public safety, housing and local businesses.

I will continue to do that if elected,” Morosky said.

Voting process underway in Curry County Curry County Clerk Reneé Kolen informs voters that the November 8 General Election processes have been underway for weeks now. Ballots for military and overseas voters have already been mailed.

The state voters’ pamphlet containing voting information and candidate statements should arrive

Commissioner Christopher Paasch.

Brookings city council member Brad Alcorn is running to fill the open county commissioner position, along with Beth Barker-Hidalgo.

Barker-Hidalgo says she is a two-way supporter of both Democrat and Republican ideals. She says she owns a gun and is also a supporter of law enforcement.

nities for the County.

“I am a grant writer, a project manager and a project implementer,” Barker-Hidalgo said.

She also has a background in emergency management and social issues. Barker-Hidalgo worked as a court appointed advocate for children in foster care.

“I have gotten to see from the inside-out some of the more difficult and complex social issues we struggle with in Curry County,” she said.

The commissioner candidate describes herself as a

scrapper.

“If a barrier is in my way, I will figure out a way under it, over it, around it – whatever has to happen to address the issues in our community,” Barker-Hidalgo said.

Alcorn listed off his long line of endorsements during his closing comments at the Oct. 8 voter’s forum – such as the current county Commissioner Christopher Paasch, Sheriff John Ward and county Treasurer David Barnes.

Letters to the Editor Vote for Beth

Looking for information

If you have kept up with their meetings lately, you will have noticed all the arguing and bickering that’s been happening at our county commissioners meetings. Now, arguing is fine if, in the end, there is some consensus. Unfortunately, they are not coming up with any solutions for the many issues we have in our county.

We have an opportunity to change that by electing Beth Barker-Hildago to the commission.

Beth has a history of getting things done and working with divergent individuals.

We need to increase the number of adults on the commission. VOTE for Beth.

I'm looking for information on the deaths of two loggers back in 1890 up the Chetco River. They were killed by some wild animal that was unidentified.

One of these men was married to my great grandmother. I would like to get the true account of what happened.

A man from Idaho e-mailed me and said the animal was thought to be a Bigfoot/Sasquatch that killed Jack Colder and Albert Watson in June of 1890.

Gerry Stout Gold Beach

I am voting for Bret Cecil

It isn't any wonder that animosity toward the homeless and the fact Curry County ranked No. 1 in Oregon for its suicide rate appeared on the same page of your paper.

My husband and I relocated to Del Norte when we couldn't find a month-to-month for our trailer in Curry County after I was laid off in 2019 in Ventura County. We had met in adolescence and reunited indefinitely in 2017.

To try and stay afloat from Ventura County and its increasing rental prices and discrimination practices, my husband noted he had put a million pounds of crab at Harbor port in the 2000s, working for several captains, many remaining, and was hired right away for the November 2019 crab season.

And then he got injured on the boat, my EDD benefits expired, local ordinance in Crescent City was about to make us homeless, I was pregnant and then the world shut down.

After seeing inordinate cruelty regarding government benefits in Crescent City, we came to Harbor to beg for compassion to help keep us afloat starting June 2021, while dealing with the family court system to get our baby back, termed adoptable by the court, for no legal reason.

Amazingly there was so much compassion for our extraordinary circumstance in the Brookings-Harbor area, we were able to maintain comfort in our trauma of seeing our daughter hurt in forced foster care while Del Norte left us with nothing, from our baby to our trailer and truck, too, to being forced out of all available shelter and campgrounds without legal justification, other than long-term stay issues.

As attitudes change in Curry County, however, to being like Del Norte. It's not a surprise to see the aforementioned stories on the cover of your paper. Compassion is understanding.

I attended the League of Women Voters forum on Thursday and listened to Bret Cecil and David Brock Smith, candidates for state representative. I am still reeling from the misinformation supplied

by Smith.

In response to a question concerning abortion laws in Oregon, Smith stated, “There are no abortion laws in Oregon.”

In fact, the right to a safe and legal abortion is the law in Oregon.

Smith simply doesn’t agree with that. I want a representative committed to keeping abortion safe and legal in Oregon.

Cecil pledged to hold town halls throughout the district, in person, and relying on our enhanced broadband funding if virtual meetings were needed. Smith immediately claimed responsibility for that funding in District 1.

However, Smith didn't create that funding opportunity. Democrats in Congress created it through the Infrastructure and Jobs Act, which Smith's party obstructed and voted against.

How convenient for Smith to now take advantage and credit for securing those funds. I want a representative who gives credit where credit is due; an action which truly indicates working across the aisle for the benefit of constituents.

Smith stated that yes, “Joe” was elected president. Yet Smith joined his fellow Republicans in 2020 to call into doubt the election results in multiple states, even after the courts had declared no evidence to sustain those claims. I want a representative who will protect our democracy and uphold the voters’ decision in an election.

Smith described Cecil as simply following the Democratic response of “fearing everything.”

Bret Cecil does not fear you, Representative Smith, or your party.

He simply understands the threat that is represented by you and your party, to our health care rights, to our voting rights, and to the truth.

I want a change in my state representative. I'm voting for Bret Cecil.

My Turn

Remembering my friend as I say goodbye Twenty years ago, my publisher at the time suggested I start writing a weekly column. Since that time, I have published "My Turn" in papers in Texas, Arizona, North Dakota and now, Oregon.

For the vast majority of the time, I wrote a weekly column, talked about hundreds of topics and even wrote a few where I admitted I had nothing to write about. But week after week, I found a way to write a column. This will be my last as a full-time employee in community journalism.

After I made the decision to change careers, I began to think about what my last column should say. I thought back about the stories I've reported on, the people I've met and the places this career has taken me.

But in the end, I want to talk about one person, the second editor I worked under. I started my career as a sports reporter, and I honestly can't remember who my first editor was. But my second, that's a far different story.

John Moeur was bigger than life, almost literally. He stood 6-8 and weighed more than 600 pounds when I met him. And from the day he walked into the Sierra Vista Herald, he was a bigger than life presence. He dominated a newsroom, using his size and booming voice to take charge.

But his workers were not afraid of him. We would occasionally get scolded, but in John, we all found a friend and an ally. Once I switched to the news side of the business, my desk sat 10 feet from John's office, and he became my best friend and my mentor.

I would spend time every day talking to him, asking questions, soaking in information. He always had time to share and to care.

Because of his size, John was never in the best health, but he always made it to work. Work kind of was his life, I guess. Those who worked for him became his family.

If you needed something, John would give it to you. If it was your birthday, you got a cake. Everyone. While many newspapers had monthly celebrations for birthdays, John bought a cake with his money for every birthday one of his employees had.

About four years after John came to Sierra Vista, he left and went to work for a paper in North Carolina to be closer to his son. Shortly thereafter, I moved on as well, taking a job in Texas to be closer to my mom and dad.

But even though John was half a world away, my phone rang every week, and John was on the other line. One day while at my office in Texas, the phone rang and it was John again. This time, he asked me to come to North Carolina to become his news editor. When your best friend calls, you say yes.

So we moved to North Carolina.

The work was great, working with John again was great, the culture shock, not so much. My wife, our young son and I made it almost year before we moved on, going back to Texas.

But the weekly calls never stopped. When I decided to look for a job as an editor, I called John. He gave me tips, helped improve my resume and helped me get ready for interviews. I got the job, and I think the proudest person of all was John Moeur.

During my first job as an editor, every Friday the phone would ring and John would be on the other end. We would talk news, family, life.

Some weeks he missed, but I

David Rupkalvis Executive editor could almost count on that phone ringing on Friday.

And then it stopped. No call one week, no call the next. Calls to him went unanswered. Then a co-worker from Sierra Vista posted something on Facebook about John being gone. He got sick, it turned into pneumonia and he died rather quickly.

I was in my mid-30s, had an established career and a growing family, yet all of a sudden I felt all alone. John was my boss, my friend and my mentor, but until he was gone, I had no idea how much I counted on him as a sounding board, as someone who could talk me through anything.

It's been many years now since John died. I think about him often.

Today, as I finish my last full day as an editor in community journalism, I'm pretty sure John would be proud of me.

My wish as I move forward is that all of you can find a John Moeur. It hurts when they're gone, but boy is it worth it when you have lessons and memories that never go away.

Guest Column

She mistook a dog for a wolf — and opened fire

By AMANDA WIGHT The story of a Montana woman who recently killed and skinned a domestic dog, then proudly posted photos on her social media pages, has sparked a flood of public outrage.

It should. The woman allegedly mistook the dog for a wolf, saying she was excited to share that she had “smoked a wolf pup.”

When others pointed out that she had actually killed a dog, likely a husky and not a young wolf, she doubled down on her actions, saying that if she were in that situation again, she still would have pulled the trigger.

The photos are gut wrenching. In one, the woman holds up the dead dog’s head and smiles. In another, she poses next to the dog’s skinned body, seemingly prepared as a trophy rug for a wall or floor display.

According to media outlets, the husky and at least 11 others had been abandoned in the Doris Creek area of Flathead National Forest in Montana. The local sheriff’s office reported that several of the dogs tested positive for parvovirus, a highly contagious disease transmissible to dogs, foxes, coyotes and wolves. An investigation is ongoing.

The woman who killed the

husky defended her actions by saying that she hadn’t killed anybody’s pet. Somehow, that’s not an excuse.

But the context here points to a larger and troubling reality about the status and persecution of wolves in the West. They are killed every day during trophy-hunting seasons in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. In Montana, trophy hunters can kill up to 20 wolves each and in Idaho there’s no limit at all.

This is how the killing is carried out in 2022: Wolves are chased down with packs of radio-collared dogs, shot at night with the aid of night-vision goggles, or captured in steel jawed leghold

traps and strangling wire neck snares.

In Idaho, even mothers and pups in their dens can be killed year-round. They’re slaughtered by the hundreds each year — both legally and by poachers and lawbreakers who live by the “shoot, shovel and shut up” code of killing wildlife.

The killing of a husky under these circumstances is a tragedy, one born of a trigger-happy mindset about killing wolves, and now, it would seem, any canid that might be mistaken for one.

In that sense, it’s part of the larger tragedy that threatens America’s wolf populations, one that we could prevent by

restoring federal protections for them.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is currently considering whether or not to relist wolves in the Northern Rocky Mountains under the federal Endangered Species Act. If authorities can identify and punish anyone responsible for the abandonment of the dogs, or find a way to hold the woman who killed the husky accountable, they certainly should do so. As companions at home and in the field, dogs are special.

But we can also think about how we treat wolves in light of this incident.

In the West, we know

that wolves are ecologically important as well as a huge magnet for ecotourism. Their presence is worth literally billions of tourist dollars.

Killing wolves out of some misplaced zeal threatens to undo decades of progress toward recovery.

That is why it is vital for the federal government to restore protections to wolves in the Northern Rockies now.

Webinar to explore nature's trust, environmental law Two coastal conservation groups are joining forces to host a webinar which will explore a fundamental concept in resource protection: the nature of the public trust.

North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection and Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition are teaming up to host a virtual talk by Mary Wood, a professor at the University of Oregon School of Law and author of “Nature’s Trust: Environmental Law for a New Ecological Age.” She will speak on the concept of the public trust as it relates to coastal watersheds. This

event takes place on Monday, Oct. 17, at 6 p.m. It is free and open to all.

Professor Wood will discuss how natural resources that forests provide—including clean drinking water and breathable air—belong to the public trust. She will relate this concept to the way in which extractive practices of industrial forestry (such as clearcutting followed by pesticide spraying) have grave impacts to water, wildlife, and the public health of many communities on the coast and elsewhere in Oregon.

She is an award-winning professor and the co-author of leading textbooks on public trust law and natural resources law.

Her book, “Nature's Trust,” sets forth a new paradigm of global ecological responsibility.

Prof. Wood originated the legal approach called Atmospheric Trust Litigation, now being used in cases

brought on behalf of youth throughout the world who are seeking to hold governments accountable to reduce carbon pollution within their jurisdictions. She has developed a corresponding approach called Atmospheric Recovery Litigation which would hold fossil fuel companies responsible for funding an Atmospheric Recovery Plan to draw down excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere using natural climate solutions.

Professor Wood is a frequent speaker on climate issues and has received national and international attention for her

Proactive responses are most effective for fighting marine disease, research shows

BY STEVE LUNDEBERG Guest Article

CORVALLIS, Ore. – The best time to deal with diseases in marine species is before an outbreak occurs, a study by Oregon State University shows.

Researchers in OSU’s College of Science and Carlson College of Veterinary Medicine evaluated more than a dozen disease management strategies and found the most promising ones were proactive rather than reactive, such as increasing marine ecosystem health and building marine disease monitoring and response networks.

The findings, published in Ecological Applications, are important because marine diseases can disrupt ecosystems and threaten human livelihoods, and because outbreaks are expected to increase with climate change, said Sarah Gravem, a research associate in integrative biology at Oregon State.

“The ocean environment fundamentally changes how diseases are passed between marine species, which means we must also adapt our wildlife management strategies to successfully respond to disease outbreaks in the ocean,” she said.

“The COVID outbreak has shown how devastating disease outbreaks can be in people, and diseases in the marine environment are no different. But we are much less prepared for addressing emerging infectious diseases in wildlife.”

In particular, Gravem said, preventing or controlling outbreaks in marine systems is challenging because pathogens can travel much longer distances at faster rates in water versus air. Also, many marine species, including most invertebrates, do not have immune “memory” like humans, and many species produce larvae that float in the currents and grow up far from their birthplace.

“That means the tools that we use to control outbreaks must be adjusted to meet those circumstances,” she said. “These challenges were highlighted by the outbreak of sea star wasting disease in 2013, which easily transmitted in the ocean currents and spread from Baja California, Mexico, to the Aleutians in Alaska within a couple years, affecting at least a dozen species and often causing severe declines.”

That outbreak, Graven said, prompted scientists to reconsider how to better prepare for and manage

marine diseases.

Graven and a team that included multiple graduate students looked at 17 disease management strategies to see how they compared in a marine system versus a terrestrial system.

The analysis led them to identify which strategies are potentially the most effective for marine disease outbreak prevention, response and recovery.

“Strategies like isolation, antibiotics, culling and vaccines are less useful in the ocean than land because organisms are hard to isolate and many species lack immune memory,” said the study’s lead author, Caroline Glidden, a former OSU graduate student who is now a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University. “On the other hand, many strategies used in terrestrial outbreaks are easily implemented in marine systems. These include broad prevention strategies like reducing pathogen transport via human activity and conserving biodiversity and habitats with marine protected areas or other restrictions on human use.”

Laurel Field, an OSU graduate student co-author who is now pursuing a Ph.D. at Florida State, said that other useful outbreak response strategies are surveillance networks to detect emerging disease quickly, diagnostic tools to test for pathogens in a host, and disease modeling that tracks or predicts transmission.

Once a disease has caused a decline in a host population, she said, translocating healthy individuals from elsewhere can be effective, and habitat restoration may aid recovery.

“For severe declines, captive breeding and reintroductions may be necessary,” Field said. “In all outbreaks, endangered species lists like the IUCN Red List of Endangered Species can help assess the risks to the population, ameliorate threats and prompt recovery actions, and they can come with the added benefit of legal clout. Managing marine disease is challenging and several management tools need further development or resources to be effective, but there are many strategies we can use.”

To improve marine wildlife disease management, and given that halting outbreaks in the sea is especially challenging, the scientists recommend preventatively augmenting marine ecosystem health and building more disease

monitoring and response networks like the OSUbased PRIMED Network.

They also advocate for more basic research capacity for marine disease systems and support of facilities in which the research can be undertaken, especially those with infrastructure for housing or breeding marine species.

All of the researchers’ recommendations can be supported via legislation and policy to explicitly support wildlife health, the researchers add, noting that despite several recent efforts, there is no enacted legislation in the United States or globally that addresses wildlife disease emergencies.

CURRY COASTAL PILOT

Baker announces write-in bid for county treasurer Based on a fair number of Curry County citizens comments and concerns, recently, I have made the decision to offer and be available as a write-in candidate for Curry County treasurer on the November 8 ballot.

As a 10-year resident of Curry County, along with my accounting education and professional history, I have come to be interested and involved in the necessity and need for appropriate functioning of the Curry County accounting and finance departments. For the past year, as a member of the Curry County Budget Committee, I’ve learned that citizen need and demand for county departmental responses has never been greater. Revenue sources for each critical department, sheriff and related law enforcement, community and economic development, public health, road and emergency management are in daily/monthly/annual need of review, comment and action.

My professional and education history can be summarized as follows: • Masters Degree, account-

ing • Bachelors Degree, sociology and statistics • Corporate controller – private sector firms specializing in federal and state contracts (35 year employ) • Controller – local Port Orford non-profit organization (2013 – 2018) Key professional abilities and experience include staff management, contracts, federal and state taxation, human resources/personnel, policy and procedures writeup and implementation, internal and external audit responsibilities, and senior management relationship, involvement, and coordination efforts.

I am committed to bringing my talents and skills that represent all of Curry residents from Langlois to the Winchuck River. I also look forward to working with newly hired Curry Finance Director Frank Jerome and accounting staff. I’ve stated, “I know we both apply professional accounting and finance standards to our work for Curry County”.

I will be working dili-

Douglas Baker gently with commissioners equally and all Curry County departments. My personal, professional and educational attainments certainly have provided me with the confidence to bring together various opinions, policy setting, and presenting critical solutions. In addition, I believe my bio and resume will provide Curry County citizens with confidence concerning that I’m the best person for the treasurer’s position. I am aware of the requirements to guard the public treasury.

Pet parenting style influences dog behavior, OSU finds during the past several decades, with a lot of research focused on how dog behavior is influenced by the home environment and prior experiences of the dog.

Now researchers are beginning to study the bond owners have with their dogs and how this influences dog behavior. Many pet care companies have picked up on this bond and are now marketing their products to “pet parents” instead of pet owners.

In many ways, research on human-dog relationships parallels human psychology research, said Lauren Brubaker, a co-author of the paper who earned her doctorate in 2019 while working in Udell’s lab.

Parenting behavior is considered an important factor in a child’s development and has been found to influence many things, including

The solution to the King Crossword puzzle is on Page A7

Dogs with owners who have high expectations and are highly responsive to their dog’s behavior and needs are more social, more secure when away from their owners and more persistent problem solvers, an Oregon State University study found.

“We found that pet parenting style does predict patterns of dog behavior and cognition,” said Monique Udell, an associate professor at Oregon State and an expert on dog behavior.

“This an important finding because it suggests that dog owners who take the time to understand and meet their dog’s needs are more likely to end up with secure, resilient dogs.”

The behavior and cognition of dogs have drawn increasing scientific interest

mental health, intellectual success, social cognition, attachment and job performance, said Brubaker, who now works as a behavioral scientist.

The researchers’ study, recently published in the journal Animal Cognition, is one of the first to look at how the quality of a human-dog relationship may influence a dog’s performance on behavioral and cognitive tests.

For the study, Udell and Brubaker recruited 48 dog owners and gave them a pet parenting style survey. Using the survey data, dog owners were divided into three categories, which are similar to those used in human parenting research: authoritative (high expectations, high responsiveness), authoritarian (high expectations, low responsiveness) and permissive (low expectations, low responsiveness.)

The dogs were then brought to Udell’s Human-Animal Interaction Lab, where they participated in three behavioral tests.

The first test evaluated the dogs’ attachment to their owner. First, the owner and the dog were situated in the same room, with the owner interacting with the dog when it came close. Then the owner left the room and finally returned, reuniting with the dog.

Musuem teaches guests Coastal SOCAN to resume how to make apple cider monthly meetings in Brookings The Chetco Valley Historical Society Museum hosted "Cider on Sunday," on Oct. 9 from 1 to 4 p.m. The family-friendly event supports the preservation of Brookings-Harbor local history.

For a $5 donation, community members brought their own apples to see how cider was made during pioneer times. They also reaped the benefits by filling jugs of cider to bring home.

Local musician Rodney Brim provided ambiance while community members explored the museums and enjoyed the festivities. The "Cider on Sunday" event also featured a raffle, bake sale, apple pie baking contest and hot apple fritters made on site.

The Chetco Valley Historical Society Museum is housed in the historic Blake House. Built in 1857, it is listed as the oldest dwelling in the Chetco Valley. Those interested in learning more about the museum or booking a tour can call 541-469-6651.

BY BILL GORHAM Guest Article

Stories about the devastating effects of a warmer planet seem to now be a regular feature of news reports. Many programs have been proposed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from everything from transportation and construction to agriculture and energy production. As I talk with people about global warming and the resulting changes to our climate and oceans, I consistently hear the question “What can I do?” The simple answer is “take action”, but that is too broad and simple.

Since 2018, Coastal SOCAN (Southern Oregon Climate Action Now) has held monthly meetings to talk about the causes and impacts of climate change and to identify actions we can take individually and collectively to make a difference.

Photo by Breeana Laughlin/The Pilot Like many organizations, as COVID hit, we switched to Preston McVay, a 12-year-old Brookings resident, helps his having meetings by Zoom, uncle Pat McVay operate a turn-of-the-century cider press which were effective to a during an event at the Chetco Valley Historical Museum.

point. Starting July 2022, we took a break in regular meetings. Now that fall is upon us – and climate weirdness is fresh in our memories, we’re looking for a reboot of our activities. We want to reconnect with current friends, make new friends, and join with other climate activists (or those simply interested in climate information). There is no shortage of issues to discuss from heat waves and extraordinary fires to extended droughts and massive floods.

But, there is no lack of good news, too – the largest investment in climate action with the (oddly named) Inflation Reduction Act, the deployment of batteries that kept California’s lights on despite unparalleled demand, the carbon-neutrality pledges from companies, states, cities, and other organizations to name just three.

In addition, there are many

options for personal actions, many of which will save us money – what’s not to like about that! LED lightbulbs need 15% of the energy of an incandescent bulb; similarly significant savings come from induction stovetops compared to conventional stoves; electric vehicles free us from the whipsaw effect of gas price volatility; heat pumps provide both heating and cooling at a fraction of the price of conventional heaters and air conditioners.

There is plenty to talk about. So, please join us for our restart of Coastal SOCAN at the Chetco Library on Wednesday, October 26, at 6 p.m. To accommodate people who want to join us but are out of the area or just concerned about public gatherings, we will also be convening by Zoom.

For more information, please contact me at Bill@ SOCAN.eco.

Street improvement work continues in Brookings Street improvement work is continuing this week at several locations in Brookings.

Resurfacing of Mill Beach Road between Chetco Avenue and the Mill Beach

entrance to the Fred Meyer parking lot, Cottage Street and Marine Drive were all completed as of Monday.

A citywide road patching project will begin next week.

“All of these projects are

funded from the proceeds of the city’s four-cent fuel tax,” said City Manager Pro Tem Gary Milliman. “Resurfacing on Memory Lane and Alder Street is scheduled before the end of the year but is pending

the completion of some underground utility repairs.”

Miulliman noted that traffic on Alder Street between Chetco Avenue and Railroad has increased since the lowering of the speed limit on Chetco.

“Money collected from the local fuel tax can only be used for street and sidewalk improvements within the city, Milliman noted. “None of the funding is being used to pave park parking lots or for other purposes. The Azalea Park parking lot resurfacing project is included in the same contract with the street resurfacing to reduce overall costs but is separately funded.”

Reauthorization of the local fuel tax will appear on the November 8 general election ballot. The city fuel tax currently generates about $330,000 annually.

Paid for by the Curry County Private Citizens Committee for the Fair & Impartial

Investigation of Judge Jesse Margolis

Our committee has done extensive research concerning Curry County Judge Jesse Margolis, including an ad we ran in August asking about people’s experiences in his courtroom.

What we are finding is ALARMING! 1. Margolis’ “plain errors” cost all of us money. The ruling that led to the formation of our committee is one in which Margolis sentenced a disabled woman for a FELONY because she rode her mobility scooter in the middle of the night without a helmet - which at most is a $25 fine – then she refused to abandon it and walk about two miles to her home in the dark. Her conviction was reversed because the appeals court said there were “plain errors”.

That disabled lady then sued and got a settlement that cost us, as taxpayers, hundreds of thousands of dollars.

2. Margolis has made many other bad judicial decisions. He has been repeatedly overruled

by Oregon’s Court of Appeals for bad decisions in many different kinds of cases, including criminal, civil & family law.

3. Margolis makes “conspicuous errors” An experienced attorney stated in a filed document that Margolis makes errors that are “conspicuous” and “inexplicable”.

4. Margolis seems to have difficulty following testimony. Based on many of his rulings Margolis appears to have difficulty following testimony and understanding oral arguments, resulting in judgments that are contrary to law. And there is nothing a lawyer can do about that except file an expensive appeal - if their client can afford it.

5. We do not believe Margolis is trustworthy. Based on conversations with attorneys, past litigants and our research of court filed documents our Curry County Private Citizens Committee believes that Margolis can’t be trusted to follow the facts and properly apply the law.

If you believe you were treated improperly by Judge Margolis in court please email us at InvestigateMargolis@gmail.com. We’ll keep your identity private & publish a report with our findings. Also, please share this on social media so we get as many reports as possible.

Thank you.

Note: We thank God for our honest Police and Sheriff ’s Departments; they do their best in difficult situations that often require split-second decisions.

Our judges should be just as good as our law enforcement, if not better.

What to Know About Cat Reproduction Veterinarians as well as animal welfare organizations urge pet owners to spay or neuter their

pets, not only to provide various health benefits, but to help reduce overpopulation in pet communities.

According to The Spruce: Pets, female cats that are not spayed will come into estrus (heat) as early as age four months. The animal health resource BondVet says a cat can go into heat as often as every two to three weeks.

Generally, though, cats are seasonal breeders, indicates the United Kingdom-based RSPCA, which means heat cycles slow down in autumn.

Cats can become pregnant even during the first estrus cycle. A feline’s pregnancy lasts around 63 to 65 days, or about nine weeks. A cat also can be impregnated again very quickly after giving birth. Even while she is nursing her kittens, subsequent pregnancies are not prevented. The average litter size for cats is about three to six

Another thing to note is that cats do not enter menopause like people and other animals. That means a female cat can continue to reproduce well into her senior years.

kittens, so it is very easy to see just how many of them can be born from one mother if she’s left to her own reproductive devices. Females also can be mated by more than one male or even one of their male relatives.

Physiologically and behaviorally, cats are built to reproduce as frequently as possible. Pet owners must put a stop to that to protect against overpopulation and to reduce unwanted behaviors like inappropriate marking, aggression and other issues.
