Stars and Stripes Parade ready to roll Rules on By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer
The Stars and Stripes parade, a holiday tradition since 2000, is set to roll through downtown Enumclaw at noon Thursday. As always, parade participants will start at the north end of town, join the procession, and roll along Cole Street. Typically, downtown sidewalks are packed with adults - and kids scrambling
for candy. The Fourth of July favorite is sponsored by the Enumclaw Chamber of Commerce. This year’s grand marshals will be the community-friendly couple of Mike and Britt Nelson. Mike Nelson is an Enumclaw native and longtime superintendent of the Enumclaw School District; Britt Nelson served, until last year, as director of Plateau Outreach Ministries.
Kerry Solmonsen, the chamber’s events coordinator, said this year’s parade will feature some traditional favorites but will also boast some new additions. Primary among the newcomers is Thunder Dome Car Museum, an automobile showcase in Enumclaw. Owners are providing a sharp ride for the grand marshals and, additionally, entering some of the museum’s
showpieces in the parade. Solmonsen said an effort is being made to include red, white and blue vehicles. In keeping with a longstanding tradition, kids from the community are encouraged to decorate their bicycles, tricycles, Big Wheels and scooters and join the parade. They will gather prior to the parade on Cole Street between Battersby and Washington avenues.
pit bulls to be relaxed By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer
King County visits Enumclaw
King County held a town hall-style meeting last Tuesday, June 25, at the Enumclaw Expo Center Field House. South King County residents from Enumclaw, but also including Black Diamond and anyone in unincorporated King County, were able to interact with members of various county departments like Public Health, Metro, Animal Services, Parks, and more, as well as talk with King County Councilman Reagan Dunn.

‘Spike’ seen in malicious mischief, arson By Ray Miller-Still Editor
An increase in vandalism and even arsons in Enumclaw has the local police department on extra patrols. The Enumclaw Community Facebook page blew up the morning of June 26 when a local posted about the Little Free Library near her home burning down, also damaging the nearby fence. According to EPD Cmd. Tim Floyd, there were two Little Free
Libraries that were burnt down that night. The first was at 1260 Marion St., which happened just before midnight, and another at the corner of Fell Street and Hillcrest Avenue at around 3 a.m. — both are roughly half a mile apart. “We’re working with the fire department to investigate those and coming up with a plan to tackle these arsons and graffiti issues we’ve had over the last couple of nights as well,” Floyd said. Several other Little Free
Recreational Cannabis
Library owners have said they’ll be installing cameras to watch their libraries. Additionally, there appears to have been an increase in other malicious mischief crimes around the city: Floyd said there were around five incidents of graffiti — including at The Courier-Herald building — and Porta Potties being knocked over. “Our malicious mischief has taken a spike since school let out,” Floyd continued. “I’ve not seen a year like this where
*No medical card needed.
malicious mischief spiked as soon as school got out. Not to say that it’s a juvenile, but it leads one to believe that.” The Porta Potties were located at Montgomery Park, just a quarter mile away from the Marion Street Little Free Library. It’s unclear whether these incidents are related. No suspects have been named at this time, but Floyd said night patrols will be increased and juveniles after dark may be stopped and questioned.
When it comes to pit bulls, the city of Enumclaw has long maintained a strict “keep out” policy. There’s absolutely no gray area when it comes to the much-maligned dog: the Enumclaw Municipal Code strictly prohibits pit bulls within the city limits. Owners found in possession of such dogs are told to get rid of them quickly or face legal consequences, with enforcement action turned over to King County Animal Control. But change is in the air and it’s positive news for pit bull fans and families. Earlier this year, the state Legislature deemed that exemptions be made to current pit bull rules and the city of Enumclaw is following suit. An ordinance was supported during the City Council’s meeting on June 24 and is expected to receive final passage on July 8. The bottom line, barring a surprising turn of events: after Jan. 1, 2020, pit bulls will be allowed in town. But it’s not as simple as some might think — there’s a significant hurdle dog owners will have to clear.
ENUMCLAW’S CURRENT LAW The city has outlawed pit bulls since 1990 and is one of 27 jurisdictions throughout the state imposing some sort of breed-specific ban. In many cases, it’s limited to pit bulls but some cities and towns have included Rottweilers and certain types of mastiffs. See RULES, Page 10

Samoans — they’re U.S. nationals, which means they have even fewer rights than their occupied peers, as they can’t vote in any election or hold any public office. That, of course, is ridiculous, and is made ludicrous once you factor in that American Samoa had the highest military recruitment rate in 2014 and 2015 (153 and 171 recruits respectively) out of the 885 total recruitment stations across the country, other colonies, and allied nations. Yes — there are hundreds of U.S. soldiers who will gladly fight for the freedoms you are about to celebrate while those rights are denied to them. Guam and Puerto Rico are in the same boat: One in eight Guaminians — an estimated 20,500 people — are U.S. veterans, and more than 200,000 Puerto Rican soldiers have served in every military conflict since World War I, but their representatives to the House can’t vote on a declaration of war, they have no senators, and they have no right to pick their commander in chief. (That doesn’t stop Guam from
holding a straw poll for president every four years, which, interestingly enough, has predicted which candidate received the most electoral votes since 1980, the only exception being the 2016 election.) Speaking of Puerto Rico — home to 3.4 million Americans (roughly six times the population of Wyoming) — it would get five representatives in the House if it became a state. That’s nothing to sneeze at, since that’s more or equal to nearly half the representation other states get. Additionally, becoming a state would give Puerto Rico seven electoral votes, more votes than 21 other states. But whether the colony wants to become a state is still up in the air. There was a 2017 referendum where 97 percent of people who participated voted to become the 51st state — but only 23 percent of the population voted. It’s unclear whether other colonies want to be independent or try to become a state. In 1987, Guaminians voted to become a commonwealth like Puerto Rico (meaning it would have its own local government) but it was rejected by Congress, and there hasn’t been another referendum on its political status with the U.S.

worked at Montreal’s Douglas Hospital where they came in contact with the mentally ill. In this instance, they were standing in line awaiting further instruction from their professor when one of the female students was confronted by a fragile, long-term patient with schizophrenia. The patient, a woman, asked the student in a friendly way, “Why are you all standing here? What are you doing? Can I come along with you?” The student turned to Peterson and asked what she should say. Both were concerned that their answer might either be seen as a rejection or a
reprimand. There were no set rules or cues to guide them. Peterson saw two options: the first, a face-saving story, the other a truthful answer. To say, “We can only take eight people in our group” or “We are just leaving the hospital now” would fall into the first category. Peterson instead said that they were new students training to be psychologists and the woman couldn’t join them for that reason. The patient’s reaction was at first crestfallen and then accepting. It was all right. That was reality. On another occasion he was working with

since. Other colonies had similar discussions in the 1950s and 60s, but I found little information on how their residents feel about their second-class citizenship in the present. That should really change, because while Americans enjoy freedoms that can’t be found anywhere else in the world, we are not free to be unequal, and despite the fact inequality is pervasive in all of American history, we should always be striving toward that shining standard. And what better place to keep that momentum going than with our colonies. It’s long past time for Congress to lead the statehood debate, and for Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Northern Mariana Islands to seriously consider what they want — to be fully incorporated as a state, with full access to the rights and responsibilities all Americans shoulder, or to become independent nations, with constitutions and governments of their own. All people are equal. No “ifs,” “ands,” or “buts” about it. The song of the American Empire must end; let’s sing to the United States of America.

In another case, Peterson and his wife had a big, strong, ex-con, alcoholic, French-Canadian biker landlord who was trying to stop drinking and would go on days-long binges. On some of those binges he would knock on their door at 2 or 4 in the morning, offering to sell his toaster or microwave so he could buy more liquor to drink. At first, Peterson bought the items. Finally, his wife convinced him he couldn’t do it anymore. When the biker landlord came again, Peterson carefully and thoughtfully See ELFERS, Page 5

What they don’t love are rainy days and extra water. Salvias do better in the ground with good drainage than in a container sharing space with other, more-thirsty plants.

Tips for Success on the Dry Side Drill extra holes in any container that is growing a plant that needs perfect drainage. If you are worried that your potting soil will fall out of the hole first lay a paper coffee filter in the bottom of the pot. This keeps the soil in but allows the water out. Move potted plants out of the rain. Use an umbrella over pots too large to move. Look for a clear umbrella with a handle that is straight and not shaped like the letter “U.” Now you can use duct tape to attach the umbrella to a stake and poke into the middle of your container before rain storms. Add extra Perlite or sand to your potting soil. Any potting soil can be made to drain faster by adding up to one third the volume of the soil with sharp builder’s sand or Perlite which is light volcanic rock that adds air spaces. Adding Perlite opens up the soil and adds air pockets. . Copyright for this column owned by Marianne Binetti.

reminded the landlord that he had told them he was trying to quit drinking. Giving him money for his housewares was not good for the landlord. Peterson also told the landlord that he frightened Peterson’s wife when he came over in the middle of the night to sell some appliance. The landlord was silent for 15 seconds, looking for any micro expression that revealed sarcasm, deceit or contempt. Then he turned and went to his house, never attempting to sell anything to them again. Peterson’s examples are extreme, but we all find ourselves in situations where we don’t know what to say. The point of Peterson’s Rule No. 8 is that taking the easy way out versus telling the truth is more than two different choices – they are two different ways of living. Telling the truth in a humble and caring way, or at least not lying, is a far better life choice than telling an untruth. When in doubt tell the truth.

Hans Weston: A big family, simpler times L
ast month we left Hans Weston at age 9 in 1918. World War I had just ended on Armistice Day, Nov. 11. The few people who had cars in Enumclaw had driven down all the back roads honking
their horns or blowing a trumpet celebrating the end of the war. During the summer, Hans and others who attended the Danish Lutheran Church (now Hope Lutheran) would go to
summer school at J.J. Smith School along with about 35 to 40 other children. There they spent four to six weeks learning Danish. His teachers were the Danish Lutheran minister, his wife, and older girls who had
John Roland Urback
September 19, 1931 - June 23, 2019 John was born in Evanston, Illinois, to John and Helen Urback. Not long after, the family moved to Barnum, Minnesota. John graduated from Barnum High School then enlisted in the U.S. Air Force, where he got his education as an aircraft mechanic. He married Marilynn Mae Denton, his high school friend, and was stationed at Fairchild AFB in Spokane, Washington. After his Air Force service, the couple moved to Seattle and in 1955 he began working as an aircraft mechanic for United Air Lines, where he continued to work until his retirement in 1987, most of those years on the graveyard shift. They moved to Sumner in 1957, purchased 40 acres of land and lived on the property for the rest of his life. In addition to his full time work for UAL, John wore many hats to support his family, including school bus driver, a firewood business that employed his children, builder and manager of JAM Dry Storage, sold basswood for carving from trees cut, milled and trucked from Minnesota, and maintenance and handyman for Parametrix in Sumner. John was a pillar of the Sumner United Methodist Church. He served on the board of Trustees for many years and held nearly every position in the church, including singing bass in the choir. There was not an area of the church that he did not touch. He most recently repaired nearly all of the stained-glass windows of the church. John’s favorite activities included traveling, covering the U.S. in their RV, photography, woodworking, woodcarving, golfing, fishing and stained glass. John passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family, following a seizure related to metastatic brain cancer. The family wants to express special thanks to friends and neighbors who called, visited, brought food and provided friendship and support during his life and especially during his final days. In addition to Marilynn, John leaves behind his brother Leonard (Marleen), son Steve (Mary, and their children Meghan and Stuart), daughter Jeannine Wirth (Bradley, and their children Christine and Jennifer), daughter Brenda Irvin (Ronald, and their children April and Brian), son Brian (Alison), 5 great grandchildren, and many other relatives and friends. John was preceded in passing by his sister Joyce and her husband George “Sonny” Paulson. A Celebration of Life service will be held at Sumner United Methodist Church on Saturday, July 6, at 1:00 pm with a reception following in the church fellowship hall. Remembrances can be made to the John Urback Memorial Fund at Sumner United Methodist Church, 901 Wood Ave, Sumner, WA 98390.
attended Sunday School. Hans’ parents belonged to the Danish Brotherhood RICH and went ELFERS to meetings in the Danish Hall, which was built in 1902 and is still used today. It’s on Porter Avenue in Enumclaw. Hans learned to drive at an early age. When he was 11 or 12, he broke his arm trying to crank the family car to start it. It was the age before self-starting vehicles. In 1929 or 1930, one of his younger sisters, aged 2 and a half, suffered a ruptured appendix and was taken to the Auburn hospital. After the examination the doctor told them, “She’s too far gone and there’s no use doing anything.” But his dad said, “Operate anyway.” His sister survived. She stayed
in the hospital for five weeks. They didn’t know if she was going to live until after two weeks. Hans had 11 siblings living with him, plus grandparents and parents. That
made 16 people living and eating meals in the house. On Sundays, it was common to have another half-dozen neighbor kids See FAMILY, Page 7

JULY 29, 2009: “RENAISSANCE FAIR OPENS AT MARIS FARMS” The Washington Midsummer Renaissance Faire may now be synonymous with summers in Bonney Lake, but it first came to the Plateau in 2009 on Buckley’s Maris Farm. Back
then, the festival (which was called the Washington Renaissance Fantasy Faire) was just a three-day affair — now it spans three weekends throughout August at Kelley Farm. Despite this, however, it appears attendance has been shrinking: in 2009, The Courier-Herald reported more than 80,000 faire-goers had been expected to attend, whereas only around 30,000 now come out.

there as well. They played several games. One was “Run, Sheep, Run,” a form of tag. Another was a game called, “Andy I Over” where one of the kids would throw a ball over the house and another kid would catch it. Then the kid who had caught the ball would run and try to tag one of the other kids. During the summers, the kids would walk a mile or two down to the White River to go swimming. When the children got older, they would walk into Enumclaw to watch a movie. They would have to run to get there after their chores and then walk home afterward. The family would also go to an annual picnic at what is now called Farmers’ Park near the Enumclaw Sales Pavilion. On several occasions the family won a sack of flour for being the largest family. At other times, the Pete Peterson or Osborne families would outnumber them. The Farmers’ Picnic also had a rodeo. You could get in free on Sundays if you rode a bull. The Weston family often took a bull there to be allowed to get the free tickets. There were several speakers and a band. There was also a showhouse where Hans and his siblings watched their first motion pictures. Roads were really bad back then and cars were scarce. His uncle bought his first car and then had to replace the tires

JULY 14, 1999: “CLIMB EVERY MOUNTAIN” We’re not sure what went through local teacher Dan Petchnick’s head when he stepped on “Charlie’s” landmine during the Vietnam War (though “ow” and several choice expletives would have been appropriate) but we do know what he was thinking when he was recovering in an Enumclaw hospital afterward — he was going to climb Mount Rainier. He had done it once before, in 1968, but it would most likely prove more difficult after having both leg bones broken and half the heel blown away. Despite this, he completed his climb — and another 22 afterward, marking July 13, 1999 as his 24th ascension.
JULY 28, 1999: “WILKESON TAKES CENTER STAGE IN HOLLYWOOD MOVIE” Yes, the gas station in the little town of Wilkeson was featured in the movie, “Highway,” (2002) also known as “A Leonard Cohen Afterworld.” The movie’s plot follows the character Jack, who sleeps with the wife of a Vegas mobster and has to flee the city with his friend, Pilot, who suggests heading to Seattle, which they arrive in just in time for Kurt Cobain’s memorial service. The original Courier-Herald article had this to say about the movie’s stars: “The buddies are played by Jake Gyllenhaal and Jared Leto… Gyllenhaal’s face and name might not ring a bell to most, but Leto’s should.” Clearly, reporter Casey Olson should go see the new Spiderman.
JULY 19, 1989: “PUBLIC LOBS QUESTIONS AT MALL DEVELOPERS” A mega mall in Buckley? Say it won’t be so! many residents exclaimed when attending a public meeting with council members, the mayor, and Intercon Development, which was planning a retail, residential, and recreational center for the city. While it appeared many were opposed to the project, some were excited to see the city grow. No followup article was found announcing the results of the project, but it seems safe to say it never got off the ground. Interestingly
enough, Pat Johnson — now the mayor of Buckley — was quoted in this article while she was just a resident. “I don’t see this as a life-threatening situation,” she said. “I would like to mull it over for a while.”
JULY 12, 1979: “MUCKLESHOOTS ELATED AT DECISION ON FISHING RIGHTS” Ever hear of the Washington Fishing Wars? Many Puyallup and Muckleshoot tribe members have. Back in the mid-1800s, the state of Washington signed various treaties with local tribes, which compelled tribes to be re-located onto reservations, but left them the rights to their traditional fishing grounds. However, over the next century, those rights were infringed upon by the state, until Billy Frank Jr., 14, of the Nisqually tribe, was arrested for fishing on the Nisqually river
after a few months. Once, the uncle drove to Auburn and back. The road was so bad he had to replace the two front tires when he got home. His mother made most of the children’s clothes and canned a lot of produce. His father used to half-sole their shoes. To preserve meat, his parents would cook it in the form of meatballs and then put it in a big crock. Then they poured liquid pig lard over the meat. It would last indefinitely, according to Hans. They’d raise and butcher their own hogs, six at a time, keeping two for themselves and selling the rest to butcher shops in town. When they worked in the garden, they used to find numerous arrowheads. The kids would bring them in, but they didn’t take very good care of them. The family had a large garden where they grew potatoes, selling some for money. There was always plenty of food for their large family. In order to get to Tacoma, his father would ride his bike. When Hans and his siblings were grown, his brother Jens worked as a logger. Hans also worked as a logger for a while. For 30 years he worked as a carpenter. One brother became a plumber and Alvin became an electrician. His youngest brother was a truck driver for the county. One of his sisters went into nursing, another became a beautician, another was a secretary for most of her life. One sister worked in real estate before retiring. Many of his sisters got married and were housewives. Hans married Amy in 1934. They had four children. After their youngest child started school, they foster-parented 35
in 1945. Another arrest led to the 1957 Washington Supreme Court being split 4-4, finding a Puyallup tribesmember guilty of fishing out of season. This led to multiple peaceful and violent protests and “fish-ins” (encampments along Native fishing grounds) throughout the next two decades until the federal government sued Washington for failing to uphold its treaties. Judge George Hugo Boldt of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington ruled in 1974 that tribes must be allowed to take up to 50 percent of all potential fishing harvests and have an equal voice in fishery management, known now as the Boldt Decision. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the Boldt Decision in 1979, but that didn’t stop state legislators from trying to modify the allocation through new laws. “Fishing is a treaty right and a property right, and if they can take it away by legislation others should look at what can happen to them,”
Muckleshoot Tribal Chairman Cliff Keeline was quoted in the original Courier-Herald article. “If they take away our right to fish to make a living and feed our families, the legislation is promoting genocide.”
JULY 10, 1969: “COMPUTER WILL EASE MUTUAL’S OFFICE BURDEN” A new IBM System 360 Model 25 computer was installed in the Mutual of Enumclaw’s offices to reduce the accounting and statistical workload. The computer — which was described as taking up most of the second story floor area — cost Mutual of Enumclaw $33,000, which would cost more than $2.3 million today, due to inflation. Mrs. Judy Collins, who was going to be the one operating the machine, spent 18 months learning how to use it efficiently.

more children through the years. The children were aged from 3 to 12. Hans bought his parents’ place in 1946, continuing as a farmer and a carpenter until 1954. Then they rented out the farm until 1958. They sold most of the farm and the house in 1965. The last of the land was sold in 1973. They lived at 2867 Griffin Ave. in an orange brick house that is now The Person Real Estate Group and Opes Mortgage Banking. I knew Hans and Amy. They went to my church, Hope Lutheran. I regret that I never really spent much time talking to them. Now they are gone. Every one of us has a story to tell. Unfortunately, few of us take the time to listen to those stories. The story of Hans’ young life came from the oral history interview found in the pioneer section of the Enumclaw Library. The information about the foster children came from a May 6, 1971, article found in the Enumclaw Courier Herald.

Local riders take honors in two-state equestrian meet By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer
Equestrians from both Enumclaw and White River rode to first-place finishes during the recent regional championships. Officially known as the Pacific Northwest Invitational Championship, the June 14-16 meet brought together top high school equestrians from Washington and Oregon. Teams from the two states get together annually for a season-ending competition. The states alternate hosting PNWIC and this year’s event was in Redmond, Oregon. Enumclaw’s title came in the drill competition (Freestyle 5+) and went to the squad consisting of Emma LeSueur, Hailey Robinett, Rylee Geddes, Kayla Brock, Vanessa
Sanders, Emma Schmidt, Trinity Forristall, Kristine Bremmeyer, Sophia Collins, Daniela Iacopi, Miesa Floyd, Makayla Watterson and Kate Hayett. Additionally, EHS had Sanders placing sixth in pole bending and the duo of Collins and Iacopi taking eighth in team penning. The PNWIC drill championship followed Enumclaw’s first-place finish in the Washington state championships, staged in mid-May at the Grant County Fairgrounds in Moses Lake. White River’s Alyssa Seldal captured firstplace honors in hunt seat over fences. She was joined by teammates Rachel Poussier, who was third in hunt seat equitation, and Jaxon Hagedorn, who finished sixth in saddle seat equitation.

Rules From Page 1
City code defines a pit bull as “any Bull Terrier, American Pit Bull Terrier, or Staffordshire Bull Terrier or American Staffordshire Terrier breed of dog.” Also outlawed is any mixed breed that includes any of the four types. The city’s prohibition was last tested in 2014 when citizens, along with the Olympic Kennel Club, asked that the city reconsider its breed-specific ban. Testimony was taken from
The Courier-Herald both sides and, in the end, members of the City Council chose to keep the existing rule in place. The city code does make allowances for pit bulls participating in a sanctioned dog show or serving as a licensed service animal.
THE LEGISLATURE ACTS Action taken in Olympia impacts any jurisdiction that presently imposes prohibitions on dogs based solely on its breed, a practice commonly referred to as breed-specific legislation (BSL). The Legislature
www.courierherald.com made clear its belief that dogs should be judged individually, based on their behavior, rather than public perception. The new legislation states: “While the legislature recognizes that local jurisdictions have a valid public safety interest in protecting citizens from dog attacks, the legislature finds that a dog’s breed is not inherently indicative of whether or not a dog is dangerous and that the criteria for determining whether or not a dog is dangerous or potentially dangerous should be focused on the dog’s behavior.”

Simply, the state will continue to allow bans on certain breeds, but options will be made available to pit bull owners. The new canine legislation passed the state House of Representatives by a healthy 66-29 margin; it had a tougher time in the Senate, where it was approved by a slim 25-23 margin. All three lawmakers from the 31st Legislative District – House members Morgan Irwin and Drew Stokesbary, plus Phil Fortunato in the Senate – were on the losing end, having voted against the bill. It was signed into law April 30. What the Legislature approved – and Enumclaw now supports – is a plan that will allow pit bulls who have passed a test proving they’re fit for city living. The industry standard is the Canine Good Citizen Program, a product of the American Kennel Club. Effective Jan. 1, any pit bull passing the Good Citizen test will be allowed in Enumclaw. The allowance is good for two years and is eligible for renewal. The new city code also will allow dogs that pass a “behavioral test” equivalent to the AKC’s program.
WHAT ABOUT BUCKLEY?
Bluefins
The story is much the same in Buckley, another example of where pit bulls are prohibited. The Buckley Municipal Code speaks generally of “dangerous dogs.” The exact text indicates “It is unlawful for any person to have in their possession, or to allow to be maintained upon premises within their possession or control, a dog found to be dangerous.” So, what is considered a dangerous dog in Buckley? The Municipal Code again offers three definitions including, “Any dog of the breed American pit bull terrier, Staffordshire bull terrier, or American Staffordshire terrier” or any dog including a mix of any of the above. Buckley will need to take action to stay in compliance with state law. City Administrator Dave Schmidt has taken tentative steps, but there’s not yet a sense of urgency. “We know we need to make some revisions, we just haven’t gotten to it yet,” he said. Schmidt figures the City Council will adopt new language in the city code before fall.
