Another busy weekend in Baker City. Another relatively tranquil weekend for Baker City Police. Which is precisely the result Police Chief Wyn Lohner hoped for both during this weekend's Miners Jubilee, and L ohne r last weekend's Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally. "I'mvery pleased toreport the same thing two weekends in a row," Lohner said this morning."It shows what can happen when the community works together." Although offtcers from the city department as well as the Baker County Sheriff's Offtce and Oregon State Police stopped dozens of vehicles during Jubilee, the city made only one drunken driving arrest, Lohner said. And Lohner said that person hadn't been drinking at one of the weekend's big events, the beer garden at the Fairgrounds. Lohner said organizers of the beer garden agreed to a listofprotocolsfor thisyear's event designed to"bring down the level of intoxication." The new guidelines seemed tobeeffective.

TURNING HACK THE PAGES 50 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald July 21, 1964 The construction of a lodge building about half way between Sparta and Medical Springs on the Main Eagle Creek Drive has been announced by some California investors. The investors, operating under the name of Eagle Creek Lodge Inc., said construction work got under way last week and plans call for the lodge to be open to the public by this winter. The construction plans were made public late yesterday through an interview with the investors,George Ames, RoyTidwell, Ken Sunday, all of California, and Morris Cook, formerly of California and now of Keating. The other investor, Harold Kraft of California, was not present. 25 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald July 21, 1989 The Baker City councilThursday night unanimously approved the first and second readings of an ordinance that would establish an economic improvement district for the maintenance of the Old Post Office Square Park. After the first public hearing to consider whether the district should be formed, the council discussed proposed boundaries and assessment to affected property owners in the area. About 20 business owners and others attended the meeting to hear about the plan and present their views. Larry Abrams, chairman of the Post Office Square Action Committee, presented favorable testimony for the EID, which if established, would provide $5,000 annually for maintenance and upkeep of the park. 10 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald July 21, 2004 Anthony Johnson, a longtime Baker High School social science teacher, has been hired to coordinate district curriculum and to serve as the Haines School principal in 2004-2005. Johnson will continue to teach one class of advancedplacement U.S. history and one class of general psychology at BHS, said Jerry Peacock, BHS principal. The Baker School Board approved Superintendent Don Ulrey's recommendation to hire Johnson for the new positions Tuesday night. ONE YEAR AGO from the Baker City Herald July 29, 2013 Bill Harvey is exploring a run next year for the Baker County Board of Commissioners. The primary election is May 20, 2014. He took out a petition for candidacy about a week ago. The registered Republican would need to collect 86 signatures from other GOP party members to run for Seat No. 2, according to the Baker County Clerk's office. The filing period for the primary begins Sept. 12, said County ClerkTami Green.

of the Salmon River Cowboy RodeoAssociation up to present. Bob attended school at a country school on Cow Creek through the eighth grade. Running away fiom school in first grade proved hisenduring lack of formal education. Bob's love of ranching stretched his cowboy lifestyle through participating in rodeo, whether a contestant, judge, or pickup man. He won numerous All-Around titles, served as Grand Marshall at the Riggins Rodeo in 1990 and Grangevill e Border Days in 1991. He was awarded Grassman of the year of Idaho County in 1971, and the Idaho Cattlemen Association,"Million Miles in the Saddle" award in 1991. The ICA used that opportunity to"tip their hat to those Idaho characters who give real meaning to the word cowboy. They are certainly one of a kind." During his lifetime he saw fanning with horses to fanning with the Internet. Bob was a singing cowboy and many pre-TV evenings were spent with family gathered around dad's knees hearing the "good ol' western songs. He spent his younger yearsaspartofa sm all band playing for community dances. Younger years, he was a member of the Young Men's Community baseball teams, participating in area townteam contests. Being self-employed he never considered himself retired. Even in his final hours he had the need to do the chores like feed horses, steers, cats and dogs. He cooked for himself. There were two things he said he never learned to do: bake a pie and iron a shirt. But when questioned about the latterhe said aslong ashe wore coat a allhe had todo was press the front.

so ve am se Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin:

Let's see if we can help the Bureau of Land Management solve the fence mystery of Steens Mountain. The question is: Who is supposed to build the fencing to keep cattle out of the cattle-&ee zones? There are two suspects: the BLM and ranchers. The BLM says it's the ranchers. The ranchers say it's the BLM. If we look at the language of the law itself, fencing is spelled out in two places. 1.'The Secretary (of the Interior) shall also construct fencing and develop water systems as necessary to allow reasonable and eKcient livestock use of the (replacement) forage resources." 2.'The secretary shall be responsible for installing and maintaining any fencing required for resource protection within the designated no livestock grazing area." OK, those are not the easiest passages oflaw for ordinary mortals to decipher. And the BLM concluded that they meant that the BLM had to build fences in only two cases — on land involved in land swaps and for"resourceprotection." But we do have another critical piece of evidence.

We have U.S. Rep.GregWalden, R-Hood River. He says the BLM should build the fencing for cattle in all cases. And he should know because he wrote the legislation that created the wildernesslike area on Steens Mountain more than a decade ago. The BLM didn't take his word for it. So Tuesday, Congress stepped in. The House Appropriations Committee included explanatory language with the appropriations bill that includes BLM funding to spell it out The Committee is concerned that BLM has attempted to place the responsibility for fencing upon private landowners within the cattlefree area identified by the Act, despite the Act's clear mandate that fencing is BLM's responsibility. The BLM is directed to comply with the Act." Mystery solved? Let's hope the BLM finally gets it.

C BZ10 As the author of H.R. 4848, the Repeal & Rebuild Act, I must respond to The iBend) Bulletin editorial board's gross mischaracterization of what my bill would, and would not do, to address the Highway Trust Fund deficit. gditors note: The editorial DeIiazio refers to was published in the Baker City Herald's Opinion pcge in the tuly 14 issue.) First, the editorial board was flat wrong when it said my bill would double the tax on diesel fuel. This is not true. In fact, I proposed indexing the tax, which is a common-sense way to adjust for higher construction costs and increased fuel efficiency. The indexation is so gradual ion average 2.1 cents a year) that even after 10 years, the tax still would not be double. What's more, my proposal has the full support of trucking industry groups, such as the American Trucking Associations, who actually pay the diesel tax. Truckers rely upon safe, efficient highways and bridges perhaps more than anyone. I commend ATA for acknowledging the need for more revenue and steppingup topay forit. While gas prices constantly fluctuate, there is a good chance my bill would actually help drive down prices at the pump. According to RAND, 7 percent of the wholesale tax in my bill will be absorbedby oilcompanies and not passed

e en s PETER DEFAZIO on to consumers. That means an instant 7 percent savings. Furthermore, my bill starts the tax at a lower rate than today's gas tax, providing additional instant relief for drivers. This is not a trick. This is basic math. A few right-wing think tanks have proposals to 'fix" the Highway Trust Fund. One would revert to tolling. That may work in the Northeast corridor, where short trips are commonplace, but tolling wide swaths of the West would disproportionately impact drivers here. The right wing's other idea? Just let the Highway Trust Fund go broke and let our once-connected interstate system become a thing of the past. They call this devolution. As The Bulletin editorial board correctly pointed out, our country needs a solution to the Highway Trust Fund or else construction projects will come to a halt and hundreds of thousands of people will lose their jobs. I proposed a wholesale tax because it has the best chance ofbeing adopted in our current political climate. In fact, several Republican-led states, including Virginia and Pennsylvania, have eschewed new retail fuel taxes in favor of wholesale

wa fuel taxes. This is a bipartisan approach that could actually get support in our otherwise deeply tractured Congress. The editor ialboard presented afuture option, vehicle miles traveled, or VMT, as if it's something that could be implemented overnight. But anyone following this debate knows that implementing the VMT poses a number oflogistical, fairness and privacy issues that will take time to sort out. After all, how do you tracka driver' sm ileage and record itfortaxation purposes? How does a VMT impact readers of this paper, who likely drive more miles than Portland drivers? More importantly, how do you ensure privacy? For good reason, many Americans are not keen on having the government keep tabs on their every m ove. The VMT couldwork, butnot tomorrow. Our Highway Trust Fund is on the vergeofcollapse,and Iappreciatethat this paper recognized the urgency of this issue. However, The Bulletin needs to understand the myriad challenges we face solving this issue.

Your views Predators are getting the upper hand on people This letter may seem a little vindictive, but as I watch the Portland news about cougars I can't help being a little amused. I grew up in Eastern Oregon. I am now 88. My father ran a band of sheep in the Wallowa Mountains and had to contend with cougars coming into his sheep camp on a nightly basis and killing his sheep. At that time there was a rancher in the area that kept hounds. This rancher kept the cougar population down by hunting with hounds. Of course at that time there were no animal rights groups to declare this inhumane or to say that we were invading the cougars' territory. They did the same with the coyote. Now these animals are not even afraid of humans. These

predatorsarekilling the deer and elk so much that many people don't even botherto go hunting any m ore. In a lotofruralareasthe deer have moved into towns to seek foodand protection. The wolves have also become a problem.A few years agoa local rancher was plagued with wolves killing his calves and sheep at birth. He was not allowed to hunt and kill this predator to save his livestock. He would have been fined had he killed the culprit. People can no longer enjoy camping, fishing, hiking or even a day of picking berries without the fear of what might be stalking them for dinner. Citizens of rural Oregon arevery disgusted with the radical animal rights groups that do not understand the day-to-day operations of ranching, stopping to think

where the food they are consuming came trom. Protecting these animals causes an overpopulation and throws otf the natural balance. Lo andbehold,when the food the cougars are hunting runs out or stars to take shelter in our towns, where do you think the predators aregoing to startto look frofood next? It could be your back porch. Patricia Culley Baker City

Sacking of mayor another predictable mess Hooray for Bill Ward, citizen I presume, and fellow thinker in the "I think I smell a rat" pack. For reasons I do not understand I too watched that Baker City Council debacle that started otf intelligently and then took a really foul tack, ob-

viously at the direction oftwo said councilors. Having read an account of the drift being taken and having experienced this same kind of nefarious treatment in parts of my life I knew what was in the otImg, and wasn't surprised when it came unzipped. Bill asked, 'Will we ever have a Council that will learn to respect and disagreeatthe same time"and based on my extraordinarily short time ofliving here i21 years) I have truly seen some strange goings on at the city level, from the mysterious disappearance of a Sunday Portl and Oregonian gang of papers, but containing an ugly article on our fair city, city manager sackings, recall activity and now this odd detrocking of the current mayor,aided and abetted by what seems to be ethereal reasoning on

the part of the aforementioned gang of four. I am also a fan of what I call the gang of six fervent and forever negative contributors to this column. I think of them as our exhaustingly persistent crew ofboobirds,forever haranguingthe effortsofourfederally elected government leaders any time they, the BBs see something that doesn't pass their muster, but what? Where were they with their cutting edge wisdom in this matter. Nowhere, not one of them showed up for muster, so I'll have to surmise they saw nothing untoward in this dismissal of the now ex-mayor. Councilor Colesreferred toit being akin to a foreign nation coup, to which I disagree. I see it as a misplaced Mississippi lynching. Gene Wall Baker City

The McPherons talked about their devotion to seeing the signature activity of the Miners Jubilee succeed and the excitement generated in Baker City when champion bronc and bull riders come to town. Hutzler's story was included in the Miners Jubilee special section of the July 16 Baker City Herald. That kind oflesson is what appeals to Hutzler about journalism. 'You have to learn a good amount of something on the fly and it has to be reliable," he said.'You can't just make it up."

national Development at Portland State. "I always wanted to do world news," he said."It's a matter of wanting to experience as much of the world as I can. "There's a lot going on out there and it would be a shame to miss out on it," he said. Hutzler's Baker City experience thus far also has included camping in his car in the foothills near town the first few days ofhis arrival after missing connections with his landlady as the July 4 holiday weekend was getting under way. Rather than being discouraged, Hutzler made the most ofhis time alone in the outdoors and caught up on his reading. "It was a nice experience," he said."I'm glad it happened." He believes situations like that will help him adapt and be more flexible as he travels the world pursuing global journalism as a

freelancewriterand photographer. Hutzler hasn't traveled much yet — with just a trip to Baja California under his belt. He doesn't even have his passport in order. But he hopes to change that soon. Unless he pursues his dream of racing bicycles professionally or turns his mind to motor sport racing. And then there's that stint in Antarctica he's looking forward to. Hutzler said he had hoped to leave Baker City to work at a retail store at McMurdo Station, Antarctica, in October. But he thinks his application for the position was submittedtoo latefor consideration. So, he's thinking about trying for the job again next year, which would put him in Antarctica in October 2015. Hutzler thinks he stands a good chance ofbeing hired. His resume includes about 5V2 years of working in a Salem bicycle shop and a stint

DeFazio has introduced legislation that would repeal the gas tax, and insteadimpose a tax on barrelsofoil

DeFazio hopes the international oil market will keep oil companies from just passing the barrel tax on to consumers, as a 2011 Rand Corporation study suggested.

Richardson, who stopped at the Herald office during his busy Miners Jubilee weekend schedule, contends that Kitzhaber doesn't have the same level of support from traditional Democratic backers such as the Oregon Education Association. Richardsonalsobelievesthat party ailiation — both his and Kitzhaber's — is not as vital this year as in previous gubernatorial campalgns. 'There has been a lessening of emphasis on party in Oregon,"

'That could be the poster child for waste and abuse," Richardson said of the Cover Oregon situation. He says he"warned" Kitzhaber, via aletter,thatthegovernor needed toexertmore directoversight in planning for the Cover Oregon website. "Had he listened we could have saved hundreds of millions of dollars," Richardson said."He trusted people to do it, he didn't lead." As for Oregon's Public Employees Retirement System iPERSl, Richardson argues that the changes made during Kitzhaber's current term haven't fixed the system, which Richardson describes as a "huge, huge problem because it drains so much money from budgets that could be used in classrooms or to fill potholes or what have you." Richardson, who served on the PERS reform committee during

Richardson said."I'm not running as a Republican against a Democratic. I'm running as an Oregonian who wants to show Oregon citizens a new kind ofleadership. "Non-ailiated voters, independents, and those Democrats that want a different vision for the state will vote for me." In laying out his case for why he believes Kitzhaber has been an ineffect ive,and inattentive,governor,Richardson cited severalissues he also emphasized during his first debate with Kitzhaber less than 24 hours earlier, on Friday morning in Salem. Richardson criticized Kitzhaber for two high-profile and expensive projects — $190 million for a Columbia River bridge that apparently won't be built, and about $250 million for the botched rollout of the CoverOregon website lastfall.

Memories of

a building

yr ~

that's no more Does anyone besides myself remember an old clapboard building that stood beside the Elks building on WashingtonAvenue in La Grande and was called the Moose Hall? The Elks building, of course, is now known as the Maridell Center at the corner of Washington and Depot Street. It is the building, that isn't there, just to the west of the center, thatIrefer to asa very largewhite wooden building, maybe two-story, that held quite a few community events. Ithad steps,also wooden boards, leading up to the door. Ginny Mammen has provided me with a photo that proves me right on that score. Insidewas alargeroom used for dancing with an overhang balcony for viewers. The dance hall would have been in my teenage years and I was only there on one occasion to visit a moment with a distant cousin and not to take part in the dancing. My sister seemed to have a reason to talk with our cousin briefl y and then we left. See how memory comes and goes and how it fails to fill in the blanks asyougetolder? HowIwishIhad written down all of these pieces of life as they happened even while not knowing that I would want to draw on them so many years later. Anyway, as an adult I learned that my GrandfatherSwart had been a Moose member and that they met in that building for lodge as well as one on Adams Avenue. There may have been other organizations that held their meetings there, also, foritseems likethe EaglesLodge convened there as well and maybe owned the building. How about the Royal Neighbors of America even though they were at one time in the Odd Fellows Hall across from the fire station on Elm? It all comes in a jumble. Who were they? What was the occasion of their being together? There are two things that stand out in my memory about that building besidesitsbeing used as a dance hall in later years. One of the lodges, made up of women it seems like an auxiliary or a group unto themselves, decided to put on a play for the public. It may have been the Royal Neighbors of America. It seems like the name of the play was "Charlie's Aunt" and that Nellie Montgomery played the part of the Aunt, but I can't be sure. It had quite a listofcharacters and the members all happily took part.

a in t emosto mus rooms:nexnensivenate King Boletus Mushroom Pate

By Karen Kain ForyyesCom News Service

I love pate but I used to struggle paying big dollars at high-end specialtystoresfor a quarter pound, so I started making it myself. Fortunately, making pate is easy and inexpensive. You can buy a pound of chicken livers in the grocery store for under $3. And it is actually good for you when eaten in moderation.

Trim any fat or connective tissue from the livers and discard. Heat the butter in a large saute pan on medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the livers. Separate them out in the pan so they can brown evenly. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Flip the livers cooking on both sides. Once the livers are browned add the capers, thyme, saute another

minute letting the flavors combine. Takethe pan offthe heatand addthe sherry. Put the pan back on the heat and cook on high to boil the sherry down, 1-2 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow to cool. Put the mixture into a food processor or blender and puree until you get a smooth texture. You can add more butter if you like to make the pate richer in flavor. The mixture should be loose, but once you refrigerate it will firm up. Store in a small bowl or ramekins. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving. The pate will last a week or so in the fridge.

2B —THE OBSERVER a BAKER CITY HERALD

i rru By ErinHeffeman The Seattle Times

A Seattleman spots a spiderof apparently epic proportions in his rental home. He decides to deal with thismost primordial ofproblems by: al Reaching for a shoe bl Calling an exterminator cl Begging a neighbor for help; or dl Inexplicably deciding to immolate the eight-legged menace by using a lighter and a can of spray paint as a homemade blowtorch. iAfler all, the house is a rental.) Chances are by now you know the answer. The man's ill-fated effort at extermination not only set a portion of the home aflame, it also made national news and moved the spokesman for the Seattle Fire Department to warn against copycats: 'There are safer,m oreeffective ways to kill a spider than using fire," Kyle Moore told the Associated Press."Fire is not the method to use

HONEY Continued from Page 1B When bees run out of room in a hive, Bobo explained, the queen lays a queen cell, which hatches in 21 days. Severaldays beforeit hatches, the old queen takes off with workers, traveling in a swarm to find a new home. In this case, a raspberry bush. They also land in trees, or inside walls. A bee hive has between

30,000 and 50,000 bees, and a swarm about half as many. Bobo said bees can travel up to three miles in their search for a new home. Clad in beekeeper jackets, Keith and his son, Jake, placed an hive beneath the swarm. With a quick jerk, Keith shook the bees into the box and stepped away. Keith waited a few minutes, then repeated the motion to make sure he got the queen inside the box. He said honeybees aren't aggressive when found this early because the workers gorge themselves on honey before leaving the hive. After several days, however, the bees begin building comb and establishing their new home. That's when they get a

"Some peoplehave a phobia that makes their brains stop thinking when they see a spider," said Elmer Bensinger, CEO of Mathis Exterminating of Seattle. Bensinger noted that every year or so there are stories in the news of people who blow up their homes with"bug bombs," a pest-control

Evan Brougham is in charge of the new beekeeping supplies at D&B, and he is maintaining three hives near the store so he learns more about keeping bees. He said people with questions about bees — or those who encounter a swarm — can also call him at the store, 541-523-6442.

"Installing a rain barrel is one of the easiest things a homeowner can do to protect water resources," says Julia Hillegrass, team leader with askHRgreen.org, an environmental public awareness program for the 16 counties and cities in Hampton Roads, Va.

A single bug bomb would have been sufficient to treat the 470-square-foot home. The San Diego Union-Tribune reportedthat the bombs were ignited by a pilot light from the water heater. The explosion shook the surrounding homes and catapulted the family's Christmas decorations onto the street,the newspaper said. Turns out, that house was also a rental. The damage cost some unlucky owner $150,000 to repair. The Seattle fire caused an esti-

m ated $60,000 in damage, according to Moore. After the man ignited his laundry room with his makeshift blowtorch, he tried to put water on the flames, but theblazespread intotheattic.

In the aftermath, portions of the house were boarded up with plywood, and a blue tarp covered part of the roof. The owners of the house declined to comment. As for the spider,M oore said: "I'm pretty sure the spider did not survive this fire." Rick Mix, general manager of Willard Pest Control, which has locations throughout the Puget Sound area, said that exterminators often see people driven to hysterics by pests. "I had a lady call me one time who had a newborn baby," Mix said. "She was convinced that she had a deadly brown recluse spider in her home. I told her there was no way; we don't have brown recluse spiders in Washington. But she was terrified it was going to bite her baby." Mix said the woman was insistent and drove to his office, baby in tow, so he could judge for himself.

Bensinger, of Mathis Exterminating, said that there are a number ofbetteralternatives to homemade blowtorches to kill spiders. "A goodway togetrid ofa spider is to use a vacuum," Bensinger said.

by Stella Wilder TUESDAY,JULY 22, 20)4 YOUR BIRTHDAY byStella Wilder Born today, you are one of those cr mplicated and fascinating individuals who are not alwaysaccessible to others,and who can be quite a mystery to those who are not willing or able to look beneath the surface. Despite being born on the cusp, you often display more markedly the traits of a Cancer native than those of the lion. Most evident is your tendency, whenever you have the chance, to retreat into yourself- your"shell," ifyou will -- and hide from the world at large, at least figuratively. You know that it is impossible to do this literally, so you will no doubt develop clever waysofretreating from the world even when you aremaking yourselfbusy in it! WEDNESDAY,JULY 23 LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You cangain the advantage over a rival by using one or two tools that you havesecretly kept in your arsenal. Keep things friendly! VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sepc 22) —That which was lost is found, andwhenyou find yourself

losing your way, you can surely get back on track with just a little effort. LIBRA (Sepc 23-Oct. 22) —You're in no position to demand anything from the powers that be, but if you play your cards right, they may offer what you most want. SCORPIO (Occ 23-Nov. 21) —You'll be remembering much that has you swinging dramatically from a good mood to abad one.

smallest gesture can have a dramatic effect. Those who are able to decipher your unspoken messages will benefit greatly. ARIES (March21-Apru 19) -- You maybe haunted by a vision from the past, but with one or two carefully timed actions, you can free yourself from its thrall.

TAURUS(Apru 20-May 20) —Youare not

required to do more than is asked ofyou, but It's time to take control of your past! remember, any extra effort is likely to be SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) - You remembered and rewarded. may not know quite how to dowhat you must GEMINI (May 21-June20) - - You mayfeel do, but you have the feeling that if you do it, as though you have been left to your own all kinds of things will get better. devicesata tim e when you are in need of CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Once both company andadvice. the lights go ouu things really heat up —and CANCER (June 21-July 22) - You'll be anything that happens before that is merely moving with currents that cannot be seen, preamble to what matters most. only felu and you understand that you're AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can headed in the right direction. keep things from getting out of hand for aDIIQR5 F dl a q u pl » « t n R y p a « «c yourself and for others in your immediate COPYRIGHT2tll4 UNITED FEATURESYNDICATE INC vicinity.
