State rep., senate hopefuls square off on reform,

economy in Chamber forumBy Carol ladwig

Staff Reporter

The five candidates for three positions in the 5th Legislative District aired their views on edu-cation, reforms supporting small business, and transportation issues at a Snoqualmie Valley Chamber of Commerce lunch forum held Friday, Oct. 19, in Snoqualmie.

Brad Toft (R), Snoqualmie mort-gage manager and Mark Mullet (D), Issaquah business owner, are both running for the 5th District State Senate seat left vacant by Cheryl Pflug’s withdrawing from the race in May. David Spring (D), North

Bend activist, and Chad Magendanz (R), Issaquah software consultant, are competing for the 5th District Representative seat, Position 2. Position 1 Representative Jay Rodne (R) is running unopposed.

Bill Shaw, publisher of the Valley Record, led the forum. Candidates took turns answering his questions:

How would you fully fund education?

Toft: The first dollar of our budget should be going to education. What’s happening in Olympia now is false choice being put in front of the voters. Education is being mixed in with other social ser-vices, and then we’re being told that there’s not enough money. So the dollars need to go to education first, and then we can have a discussion about raising revenues.

Si View Parks ponders hard decisions as proposition goes back to voters

By Carol ladwigStaff Reporter

Fridays are special at Si View Community Center. On Fridays, every child involved in the after-school program there, plus the ones in the satellite program at Fall City Elementary School, can go swimming, and then enjoy popcorn and a movie.

That’s on top of the arts and crafts, games, snacks, homework time and, on this particular October Friday, a costume box to explore, built into every other day of the Si View Metro Parks District program.

“Everybody who can hear me, put your hands on your head!”

That’s program leader Michael Bodwick, trying to quickly settle about 20 youngsters from North Bend Elementary School down so he can take attendance before the buses from other elementary schools begin to arrive, about 10 minutes apart.

Mount Si V-ball sets sights on top competition as post-season nearsBy Seth truScott

Editor

When the opposition’s outside hitter leaps up for a lethal shot, Genevieve Knoppi is in the line of fire—right where she wants to be.

With split-second reaction, the Mount Si libero braces herself to pop that ball up with her cupped fists.

“That hitter is going strong. They’re going, ‘I am going to sink this into the floor,’” Knoppi said. “Not today.”

Knoppi can be seen in the tough matches, calling out and communicating with teammates in the think of it, crouching for digs, and diving when she has to. The senior defensive specialist isn’t afraid to encounter the floor.

“Getting down and dirty, I love it,” she says.The verve and reaction of Knoppi and her teammates

helped keep Mount Si in a hardscrabble five-set battle with Mercer Island last Thursday, Oct. 18. But Mount Si fell in the short fifth series by two, 15-13, to an athletic Islander squad.

In a series that echoed the two teams’ first encounter this season, Mount Si won the first set, Mercer the sec-ond and third, Mount Si the fourth. Both teams rallied at times, fell from mistakes, but the final moments were tense in the crowded Wildcat home gym, as Mercer put it away.

Some spirits were low among the Wildcat ranks, but a thirst for payback, and the will to get it, were also evident.

“These matches are my favorite,” Knoppi said. “Fifth game, 13-all—it’s the do-or-die moments that make our team who we are, and show who we are. We just need to get a little bit better.”

Outside hitter Lindsay Carr has massive power, and drilled the ball several times in the set. Liz Larson is working on her tipping skills, and Knoppi expects to see that tactic help against tough foes like Mercer.

This season, the Mount Si volleyball squad has ham-mered every opponent but the Islanders. The Wildcats are now second in league play, 11-2.

“It means nothing,” Wildcat head coach Bonnie Foote said of Mercer’s new bragging rights. “What means something is the league tournament.”

Now, she wants the Wildcats to rise to competition.“Action is what gets you there,” Foote said.Following the game, Mount Si players took stock of what they need to doCarr on Thursday saw strong defensive and offensive play, but too many errors. She

wants to see the Wildcats improve serving and passing. Without that, there’s no game, she said.

“We’ll bounce back,” promised Lexi Read. “We’re going to fight back this weekend, in a tournament.” Mercer may be tough, but “We’re tougher,” she assures.

On the huntFirst round of state championship play at home

for Wildcat football after Mercer victoryMount Si continued its run toward greatness this season

with a 38-7 win Friday, Oct. 19, on the road at Mercer Island.

The lopsided win over the Islanders helps the Wildcats secure a first-round home game on Friday, Nov. 2, in the Washington State Championships round of 32.

While the Wildcat defense kept Mercer under pressure for the entire game, Mount Si pushed to a lead early, as junior linebacker Evan Johnson snagged an Islander pass early in the first quarter. Mount Si pushed to a 21-point lead quickly, as quarterback Nick Mitchell kept up his aerial attack, connecting with Trent Riley, twice, and Tyler Button in the second quarter.

Kicker Cameron Van Winkle kicked a 27-yard field goal and narrowly missed a 53-yard attempt. Van Winkle is in the hunt for a 50-yard kick for his senior season.

Mount Si visits Liberty on the road this Friday. Game time is 7 p.m.

I had the opportunity to moderate a 5th District candidate forum recently. While the candidates came from different backgrounds and certainly

held different perspectives on many issues, there is com-mon thread that unites them all—the desire to serve their community and to make it a better place.

Moderating that debate and pondering the overall dynamics of this upcoming election, I was reminded of my trip to our nation’s capital two years ago this week. At one point on my sojourn, my nose was mere inches away from the most important document in America: The Constitution. In 1787, our founders permanently expressed in ink and sheepskin what had slowly formed in their hearts, minds and action during the 11 very chal-lenging years before.

This four-page document was the legal blueprint and defining principle of our nation—a radical ethos that started with just three very simple words. It wasn’t ‘We the Republicans’ or ‘We the Democrats.’ It wasn’t ‘We the Tea-Party’ or ‘We the Super-PACS’ and especially not ‘We the Millionaires (or their Corporations). It was ‘We the People’.

Well, in two weeks, ‘We the People’ have an opportunity to boldly affirm our nation and our state’s direction. Or, to change it. But it all begins with you, and with your vote.

But before you start filling in the circles on the ballot, please set aside some quality time and truly educate yourself on the people running for national and state office. Not to mention the state initiatives and judicial candidates as well. The State of Washington Voter’s Pamphlet is probably still sitting on your dining room table or in your in-box. Do yourself and your commu-nity a favor: Splash some cold water on your face, get a cup of coffee or tea, pick up a highlighter and don’t just idly leaf through the voter’s pamphlet—study it.

And ask yourself: Who are the candidates? Why are they really running? Is out of a selfless willingness to truly serve the needs of their community or state? Or just another ideologue from their party’s ‘Central Casting Dept.’—appointed to carry the elephant or donkey ban-ner? Take a few moments to check out the candidates’ Web sites and Facebook pages and see what they are for and what they will do and who they will work with—not just what or who they are against.

Take some time to also explore the pros and cons of our state initiatives. Who do they help and why? Ask yourself: Does this add a positive element to our state? What is the motivation in the initiative? Better govern-ment? Sound fiscal policy? Enhanced life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Or, mere politics? Note the small print, both the folks who wrote for and against the initia-tive. That says a lot.

When the dust settles on November 6, there will be much to do to continue to rebuild the integrity of our country and our state’s divided political system. Regardless of whose name or preferred party ends up in the win column, once again, I urge our new or renewed representatives to remember that they were sent to Olympia and Washington D.C. to do the people’s busi-ness. Our business. That can only be done by doing two simple things:

1: Be brave enough to set aside the politics of divisive-ness. Reach across to the aisle to your political opposites and take up the challenge of forging common ground and a mutual purpose to get things done. True politics is the art of consensus building. Pragmatic compromise to achieve action does not mean defeat.

2: Do what is right for our nation, our state and our community, and not just for your party’s agenda.

Voting in a free election is not only our right, it is our duty as citizens of this great land.

Do yourself, your community, and those that fought for your freedom to vote the honor of voting wisely.

Votes that connect, rebuild

“North Bend is our biggest group,” he said, later.

Roll call complete, it’s snack time, and the best-behaved students get their first choice of snacks.

A girl named Mia, in a gold-trimmed brown cape, skips to the snack table then back to her seat, curtsying before she sits down. She’ll wear that cape, snagged from the costume box as soon as she arrived, for most of the afternoon.

Before snack time ends, another group has arrived, and the process begins again. There are 48 students signed up for today’s program, says Bodwick.

Program director Jessica Fischer said “We have 120 different kids in the program between here and Fall City,” but only about half of them come on any particular day, averaging 40 at Si View and 20 at Fall City Elementary.

The numbers aren’t huge, not when com-pared with the 550 students who participate in one or more of Si View’s basketball programs each year, or the nearly 800 who attend day camp, but the program is significant, and its loss would be more so.

No one wants to eliminate the before- and after-school program, says Park District Director Travis Stombaugh, but dropping property val-ues and Si View’s low position in the rankings for a share of property taxes levied may force the district to consider program reductions.

“We would have to look at everything and see what we could provide the public, but there would have to be reductions,” Stombaugh said, if district voters don’t restore Si View’s funding by approving Proposition 1 on the November ballot.

The Si View Metropolitan Parks District receives about 51 percent of its $2 million bud-get from property taxes – the other 49 percent comes from user fees. As a junior taxing district, Si View is in the third round of distributions of

property tax money. Entities like cities and the county are first in line for the funds, capped by state law at $5.90 per $1,000 of assessed value. As assessed values fall, their tax rates rise to compensate, leaving almost nothing of the $5.90 for the junior districts.

In other words, “The pie is only so big, and it used to be that the pie was big enough that everybody got a slice,” said park district com-missioner Mark Joselyn.

Last year, when Si View learned that it would get only about 9 cents per $1,000 as its share of the levy (an amount that had dropped to zero by the time of the elections as Joselyn recalled) it responded the only way it legally could – by asking the voters for help.

Proposition 1 in 2011, approved by about 88 percent of voters, protected 25 cents of Si View’s funding. In effect, it allowed the district to levy 25 cents per $1,000 throughout its district, including in the district’s unincorporated com-munities that had already exceeded the cap, for the next six years.

Proposition 2, approved by 75 percent of voters , authorized the district to levy for the rest of the 53-cent Si View levy.

This year, another Proposition 1 is on the ballot, to restore the amount of the Si View levy not covered by the six year levy approved in 2011.

“It should be no more than 27 cents,” said Stombaugh, although the final number will be calculated next year when the taxes are actually levied.

It’s not a tax increase, he says, “it’s a renewal.”

“The important point of this is it’s not an increase. We’ve been very mindful of spending our patrons’ dollars wisely,” said Joselyn.

On that point, Stombaugh points out that “We don’t take our max.” Since voters resoundingly approved the creation of the parks district in 2003, “we have always been authorized to take 75 cents per thousand.”

Stombaugh says he is optimistic that the vot-ers will restore the parks district funding again this year, although he is concerned about being “drowned out” by all the other items on the ballot in a presidential election year. He hopes voters will remember to turn over their ballots

and mark their votes on Proposition 1.A 60 percent yes vote is needed for

Proposition 1 to pass, along with a minimum voter turnout of 2,347.

If either requirement isn’t met, Stombaugh and the Si View commissioners will have some very difficult decisions ahead.

Stombaugh said the district does have $75,000, roughly a few months’ worth of oper-ating costs, in reserve, which “would buy us time to make the necessary reductions in the level of service that we provide.”

He was reluctant to speculate on possible program cuts, saying the commission would have the final vote on them, but some pro-grams are more likely than others, based on participation and on “cost recovery,” or how well they pay for themselves.

“You might have a combination of less open time. Maybe the community center closes ear-lier, or the pool doesn’t open as early… Maybe we cut back on all programming that’s less than 85 percent cost recovery,” he said.

The pool, offering swimming lessons to more than 300 children each session, operates at only 65 percent recovery.

Also, he said, the district delayed hiring a recreation program coordina-tor last year when the funding crisis began. He had hoped to fill that position this year, but that might be put off again.

By next year, however, Stombaugh hopes they won’t be asking the voters to again maintain their tax levy. Si View is partnering with sev-eral other metropolitan parks districts to lobby the legisla-ture in its next session, for a more reliable funding source,

not just for parks districts, but for all junior taxing districts.

“We’re not an island out here,” he said.Joselyn said the commission is also doing its

best to increase funding. For example, the 2013 budget projects a 10 percent increase in ser-vices and user fees, but no increase in staffing.

“We need a sustainable long-term funding mechanism,” Joselyn said. “The 5.90 cap does not enable revenues that are generated locally to be spent locally.”

Historians, photographer look back on Carnation’s first century

By Carol ladwigStaff Reporter

Carnation, or Tolt, as some of the city’s long-timers prefer to call it, celebrates its 100th year as a city in December, but Tolt/Carnation was a community long before it was an official city.

By the time incorporation papers were signed, Dec. 31, 1912, the little community at the confluence of the Tolt and Snoqualmie Rivers had a post office, general store, hotel, creamery, mill, log-ging company, mining company, a cannery, land office and its own local newspaper, the Tolt Enterprise. The landmark Tolt Congregational Church had been there since 1895, according to the Tolt Historical Society book “A History of Tolt/Carnation: A Town Remembered.”

In the next 10 years, up to about the time that Isabel (Larson) Jones was born on the Larson Homestead, even more had sprung up to support the growing community of logging camps, farms, and businesses.

“We have always had a doctor here, in fact, at one time — I don’t remember it — they had a little hospital behind Ixtapa’s,” said Jones, in an interview about the city’s centennial year. “And we always had a drugstore. Dr. (William) Cheney in Fall City… he came down here by horse and buggy, and he built the drugstore. His son Walter ran it.”

Jones, as director of the Tolt Historical Society Museum, and editor of “A History,” is the go-to source for all things historic in Carnation and the Valley beyond, but she’s also part of the city’s history. The farm where she lived, which her grandfather, John T. Larson homesteaded, is now in the city’s Swiftwater neighborhood. She grew up in and with many of the city’s founding families and future leaders — and she has the scar on her forehead to prove it, from the ricochet of a rock that a young Nick Loutsis, future mayor of Carnation, had been trying to hit his brother with.

“I’m probably the only person who has a scar on their forehead from the Mayor of Carnation,” Jones says, laughing.

When artist Jerry Mader asked in 2005 who he should talk to about a project highlighting some of Carnation’s oldest residents, Jones was probably the only person people suggested.

“You need to talk to Isabel Jones, they all told me,” said Mader. He’d moved to Carnation in 2004, and had soon become fasci-

nated with some of the people he saw in the community -- their faces first, but soon he was fascinated with their stories, too.

“Meeting these people was sort of like old home week,” Mader said, explaining that his parents had been older when they had him, so he grew up with an older generation, in a sense.

“They had the same traditions,” Mader said. “They’d say ‘You come back any time you want, the door’s always open,’ and at each interview, I got bags of vegetables and home-made preserves!”

What’s more, “These people were completely and unabashedly honest,” Mader said.

Over the next two years, he created “Carnation Verbatim: A Snoqualmie Valley Memoir,” a series of black-and-white portraits of 28 (“I missed a few,” Mader sighs) of Carnation’s senior figures, along with recordings of them telling their own stories, in their own words.

In the book, or on the website (www.toltriverpress.com/Newrelease.html) you can hear Robert Andraelli, aka “Tractor Bob” (1923-2008) talk about fishing with his brother when he was younger: “One weekend we caught 70 whitefish in two days. But the only thing, they’re a nuisance, them whitefish. They follow the salmon around, they want to eat up all the eggs — the whitefish. Same with the steelhead.… We used to give the fish to everybody that wanted ’em — we had too many. My hands usually get cold, and feet. We had to stop at one place all the time, invite us in to eat. We give ’em some fish. I liked to go by that place, because they always wanted to give us a dinner and warm us up.”

Or listen to Garnet Paar (1912-2007) talk about growing up in the Valley: “I was born in a little house next door to where I live. It’s still here. That was built in 1900. And so my roots are very deep…

It was like one great big family, growing up here. You knew who people were, because there weren’t so many of us. It seemed like everyone watched out for everyone else’s kids. They knew what they were doing, you know. My grandmother and my father raised me. There were three children in the family, because when my mother died, my grandmother promised my mother she would raise us. So my father then lived with us with my grandmother. They had moved into living with grandmother earlier, before I was born. So that’s why we were all born in that house.”

Originally platted in May, 1902, by William and Eugenie Lord who came to Tolt in 1889, the town was a picture of the idyllic rural life. Elmer (C.E.) Sorenson was mayor, governing the city along with councilmen A.H. Lemon, A.J. McDonald, William Ince, John (Jack) D. Bird and Charles Knecht. One of the city’s first actions, reported in the July 17, 1913 Tolt Enterprise, was summed up with the headline “Frank E. Harte, Tolt, to show movies in Grange Hall. Admission 10-15 cents.”

Jones is among several in Carnation Verbatim to fondly remem-ber how they used to charge all their groceries for the month at the Grange store. “They sliced your bacon off of the slab, and cut your cheese off the big wheel, and when you paid at the end of the month, they gave you a great big Hershey bar,” she said.

Even Mader’s seemingly scandalous announcement “Howard Miller’s claim to fame is that he knew the bra size of every woman in Carnation,” is a simple, wholesome truth — he ran Miller’s Dry Goods and so had to order these items for his customers.

But Tolt, or Carnation, was an ordinary town, so challenges arose, including the name of the community.

“In 1912 it was Tolt,” said Jones, but it changed to Carnation in 1917, to acknowledge the growth of Carnation Farm, founded by E.A. Stuart. By 1928, the city voted to switch back to Tolt, but the post office and railroad stations kept Carnation in their names, causing much confusion, according to “A History.” Finally, in 1951, the name went back to Carnation, and it’s stuck so far.

The city was Carnation when a bank robbery plot was spectacu-larly foiled there. Reports in the Seattle Daily Times and “A History” on the incident described in detail the Aug. 13, 1924, robbery that featured a scrappy County Sheriff who liked to knock people out with his fists, Matt Starwich, a brave bank vice-president, Isadore Hall, and a would-be robber turned hero, Ted Lashe.

According to the story, Lashe tipped off authorities that his crew was planning to take the $25,000 in the Snoqualmie Valley Bank, and Starwich hid, with deputies, in a building across the street. He planned to stop the robbery in progress. Hall acted as teller so the employees could be safe at home, and was advised to act naturally.

“So confident was Starwich that he invited all newspaper report-ers and photographers attached to the Court House to go to Tolt, warning them to remain in hiding until the bandits were caught,” the Daily Times report read.

When the robbers, Lashe, William Sant, and Dan Malone, alias A.J. Brown, arrived at the bank at about 2 p.m., Sant stayed in the car while the other two went inside. Starwich then knocked out Sant in the car, and deputies emerged from a room inside the bank, opening fire.

“Voted Best Handyman 2012”

117-year-old Falls City Masonic Hall still

draws a crowdBy Tina STevenS Mix

Contributing writer

The following is an excerpt from Tina Steven Mix’s arti-cle on the Falls City Masonic Hall, published this month in the annual Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum magazine.

The Fall City Masonic Hall stands as the tallest building in downtown Fall City. Located on the corner of Southeast 43rd Place and 337th Place, it has been home to the Falls City Lodge No. 66 since it was built in 1895. The hall has hosted thousands of events and involved itself in Valley life for over 100 years.

Among the Masons, the word “Lodge” refers to the group of men, while the “hall” refers to the building.

With the coming of rail-ways, a bridge over the Snoqualmie, and a thriving hop industry in the 1880s, Fall City was soon experienc-ing a boom. In this climate of growth, seven men petitioned the Most Worshipful Grand

Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Washington for a dispensation to form a lodge in Fall City. The dispensation request was dated December 10, 1889 and in subsequent correspondence between the Freemasons, the name was written as Falls City Lodge and thus it remains today with the added ‘s’.

The brethren began meet-ing on February 21, 1890 in the hall above Taylor’s store on River Street in Fall City. Because of the difficulty in traveling at night, the group decided to follow the com-mon practice of scheduling meetings near the full moon, allowing for safer travel at night. It became known as a “Moon Lodge,” and remained so, until 1920.

On Sunday, September 2, 1894, a fire destroyed Taylor’s store, including the hall with the property of Falls City Lodge in it.

The Lodge now sought a new home, and when a plan to purchase the Odd Fellows Hall fell through, the pro-cess of building a new hall began. This hall, completed in December, 1895, is a two- story, wood-frame building with a rectangular floor plan

which occupies two building lots. The interior of the build-ing clearly reflects the origi-nal 1895 construction, with fir floors, four-panel doors, beaded tongue-and-groove wainscot and plaster walls.

The hall is oriented accord-ing to Masonic ritual and this is most evident in the second floor meeting room. The east wall with its highest pedestal flooring is reserved for the Master of the Lodge. The west wall, with flooring one step lower is reserved for the Senior Warden and the south wall is where the Junior Warden resides. No one sits at the north end of the build-ing, because symbolically, it is a place of darkness.

Frank Schumacher, Worshipful Master of Falls City Masonic Lodge holds one of the lodge’s 1890s-era record books. The lodge has met since 1895 in the Falls City Masonic Hall, still the tallest building in town and a connection with times past.

Tell your story Explore family, historic photos at museum talk

Every photo tells a story. For Shannon Moller, a grad-uate student at the University of Washington, who is help-ing sort the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum's burgeoning photo collec-tion, one snapshot in par-ticular seemed like its story needed to be told.

Moller looked into the details of a museum photo of Irene Scott, a Valley school teacher, church organist and mother who farmed the Valley in the 1940s. Moller found rich historic detail behind that one photo, and will share her journey in a talk, "From the Record: Photos Tell a Story," at the Historical Museum's annual meeting, 2 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 18, at the North Bend Library, 115 E. Fourth St., North Bend.

Moller's talk explores her efforts in archiving the

Snoqualmie Valley Record collection of over 30,000 photographs from the Valley between the late 1970s and early 2000s.

The public is invited to bring a family photo or image of interest to share with guests to tell a personal story. The museum will also display photos from the collection that invite comment.

In 2011, the Record pre-sented the museum with some 19 boxes of negatives and prints, its film archives from 1970 to 2004.

The museum is working to sort, protect and catalog the images from the Record's col-lection, some of which were in good condition, others less so.

Last year, the board met with Nicollete Bromberg, of the University of Washington's Special Collections Library, who helped them form a plan to process the collection in a cost-effective way.

The society is now seeking additional support for archi-val materials for the photos, such as negative sleeves, fold-

ers, boxes and shelves, to store and stabilize them until fur-ther processing.

The museum has worked with partners for many years to assemble and make avail-able a complete collection of newspapers from the Valley. The society obtained bound copies of the Snoqualmie Post and the North Bend Post, pre-decessor papers to the Valley Record, and worked with the Washington State Archives to photograph those papers. These may be the only extant copies of those newspapers.

The museum has raised and spent thousands of dol-lars in materials and staff time to preserve these resources, cataloging and making them available to genealogists, governments, citizens doing research and, ironically, news-paper reporters. They're also used to prepare exhibits and articles for the annual maga-zine.

Wild hops survive 110 years of time, change to flavor

Meadowbrook aleBy Seth truScott

Editor

Hops from the fields of today’s Meadowbrook Farm once traveled the globe and enlivened European beers.

But a century after time and trouble all but erased the Snoqualmie Hops Farm from the Valley, beer is once again being flavored with the wild descendants of those original Meadowbrook vines.

In September, volunteer pickers collected hops from vines preserved at the farm’s interpretive center. Those flower buds were used to fla-vor a special, limited edition dry-hopped Meadowbrook Farm Ale, now on tap at Snoqualmie Brewing Co. in downtown Snoqualmie.

Tasting the ale, “It cap-tures the sort of golden fall Snoqualmie Valley weather,” says Mary Norton, president of the Meadowbrook Farm board.

The farm hops, and Meadowbrook farm itself, have had a long odyssey.

The coincidence that hops have maintained themselves, wild for the most part, for more than 110 years, only to come to fore again thanks to a

local beer-brewing operation, is fun, exciting even, Norton says.

“It’s coming full circle,” she said.

The farmHops aren’t native to North

America. But early farmers quickly discovered that the valleys of Washington and Oregon were ideal ground for transplanted vines.

“It’s a European vine that loves it here,” says Snoqualmie resident and historian Dave Battey. “Once you planted a field, you never had to replant it. Every year, the vine comes up.”

The place we call Meadowbrook today was, in past ages, an important gath-ering place for tribes from Puget Sound and Eastern Washington. Caucasian settle-ment began when an adven-turer named Jeremiah Borst hiked there in 1858, deciding it looked like a good place to start a farm. He brought in supplies, married a Snoqualmie tribal woman and homesteaded.

In 1882, he sold much of the property to the Hop Growers Association, who created what has been described as the world’s largest hop farm at Meadowbrook.

When the crop failed in Europe, hops boomed here. At Meadowbrook, some 900 acres were planted, and a ranch arose with hop kilns for drying

the picked product, camps for the workers, barns and a three-story summer hotel.

The annual harvest drew some 2,000 pickers to the Valley, about 1,200 of whom were Native Americans. They came from the Puget Sound, from across the Cascades, and as far as the Fraser River in Canada. The tribes camped on the island defined by the circular slough next to Mount Si Golf Course.

“It was a big deal,” Battey said.

The harvest was a major gathering, in which the tribes would mix socially, gamble, and sometimes intermarry.

“The international sale of hops was such a big deal that German beer was being made with Snoqualmie hops,” Battey said. Yet, “so many people grew them in Washington and Oregon that it destroyed the market.”

Falling prices and pests ended the boom, causing a local recession. By 1900, hop farming was finished here. Farmers plowed under their vines, but the hardy hop lin-gered on in the fencerows.

Re-emergenceTwenty years ago, one of

Battey’s jobs was to mow the fields of the future Meadowbrook Farm.

He had been hired by the Snoqualmie Valley Land Company, a group of investors

who were trying to guide the farm into a new era.

After the crash, hops growing operations moved from west-ern Washington and Oregon to New York, and eventually, back to eastern Washington, where they thrive today.

Here, a first attempt to grow potatoes at Meadowbrook failed. But the dairy that fol-lowed that, succeeded for more than 50 years, closing in the 1960s. Battey said it was done in by new regulations that made it tougher for small milk handlers to compete.

The farm was sold to a group of local investors, who marketed the property for the next 30 years, selling parcels for schools and businesses, while leaving the core intact.

When a prospective buyer came along, Battey mowed and get things ship-shape. On the job, he noticed wild hop vines in a spruce grove on the farm. Battey asked for permission to dig up a few and plant starts. He received permission, drove out in his pickup, and collected starts on a wet day.

He grew Meadowbrook hops on his own farm at Indian Hill, and later at the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum in North Bend.

Meanwhile, the new incar-nation of Meadowbrook Farm was being created. Several development pro-posals had been floated, and Meadowbrook came within a single North Bend City

Council vote of becoming a mall.

But a new vision had emerged: To keep the remaining farm as public open space, complement-ing recent public purchases at Three Forks Natural Area, the Mount Si Conservation Area and Rattlesnake Ridge.

In 1996, Meadowbrook Farm was bought for the pub-lic by the cities of Snoqualmie and North Bend. The 460 acres are now managed by the non-profit Meadowbrook Farm Preservation Association as a public space for wildlife viewing, hiking, limited agriculture and community gatherings.

After the public Interpretive Center was built off Boalch Road, Battey planted vines there. The hardy hops are still there, growing on some of the vertical timbers outside the building.

Home brewers have known about, and picked, wild Meadowbrook hops for years. The hops have survived in out-of-the-way spots on the farm, and at the Interpretive Center, they’re protected—elk can’t push over the timbers, so the vines freely climb.

“They’re growing very strong,” Battey says. This year saw a bumper crop, one of the best for hops that Battey’s ever seen.

To Battey, who led a group of Meadowbrook volun-teers in picking hops at the center on a sunny Friday in September, the historic nature of the occasion was clear.

“It’s wonderful to be making beer with those 1882 hops,” says Battey.

“It’s good,” he pronounces the brew.

Top left, hop pickers gather at the Snoqualmie Hop Farm, what is now Meadowbrook Farm, in the late 19th century. The annual harvest drew in Native American tribes from across the Northwest in an economic and social melting pot. In the modern era, volunteer picker Bob Jeans, top right, plucks hops in September at the Meadowbrook Farm Interpretive Center, for a local beer batch. The center’s hops are descended from vines introduced in the 1880s.

Meadowbrook Farm AleLight and crisp, Meadowbrook Farm Ale tastes like the good late summer beer that it obvi-ously is. By mid-October, the Sno Falls Brewery was on its last tank (“for now,” server Bridgette Kane assures) of the brew made with the wild hops that were once grown on Meadowbrook Farm. The kolsch-style beer is lightly carbonated, pale yellow and has a noticeable scent of hops, mainly orange citrus and sweet floral notes. The hop flavors are prominent with the first sniff and sip, but slowly fade to give the tasty ale a smooth finish, neither bitter nor sweet.

Two men linger by the North Bend jailhouse circa 1910.

Simpler days, tougher rules

The North Bend of 100 years ago was a simpler place. But the rules were a bit more stringent.

Minutes from North Bend’s council meetings circa 1909 to 1914, when the town was first created, show that the mod-ern world was still coalescing.

The city had to deal with the phenomenons like electric-ity, speeding automobiles—and smallpox.

Strong winds in 1909 prompted the council to appoint two night watchmen.

The next year, the city was dealing with local smallpox cases. In June of 1910, the city paid $5 to the North Bend Hospital, Inc., for care of Alex Anderson, $2 to Thomas

Liddle for a stove for a small-pox patient, $3 for services for a smallpox patient, and $55 to a G.S. Moore for “putting a big tree in place.”

In March of 1910 the town council held a special session to discuss a businessman’s pro-posal for a local electric lighting franchise. A newspaper was also being published. That year, the Snoqualmie Valley News was named the official paper

for the town of North Bend.May 18, 1912, was chosen as

North Bend’s Park Day.

Bans and curfewsOn June 12, 1911, the town

council decided to ban “fire-works, torpedoes, sky-rockets, Roman Candles and explosives of any sort,” anywhere in the city, with the sole exception of the area “southwest of the Railway tracks.”

The same day, it was decided that the town curfew bell would ring at 9:30 p.m. nightly, April through September, and at 8:30 p.m., October through March. All children under the age of 15 were forbidden to loiter on any street after the bell rang. This law went into effect on June 20.

In February of 1912, a citi-zen made a complaint against another man for violating the town’s peddling ordnance. A Fred Ellis was reported to be peddling meat around town; that violation needed to be stopped, W.C. Robinson said.

In April of 1912, the town declared that anyone riding a bicycle “or any other vehicle” on the sidewalks was to be arrested, and a fine of at least $5 be collected.

Two years later, the town passed a motion that set the town speed limit at 12 miles per hour. Breaking the limit meant a penalty of between $5 to $50, or 10 days to six months in jail.

LODGE FROM 12

In 1895, the economy was tough. The “Panic of ‘93” was a depression and its effects were still being felt into 1896. The hop market plummeted as the lodge was preoccupied with its hall building program. The year of the build, membership dropped from 31 to 27 due to nonpayment of dues. Annual dues, established in 1890, were four dollars. The amount was not changed until 1952.

The height of lodge mem-bership occurred in 1927 when membership reached 187. Frank Schumacher, the cur-rent Master of the Lodge, says Freemasonry is on the rise. He feels that more people are seek-ing opportunities to become connected to their community and that the Masonic philoso-phy, “Making good men, bet-ter men,” inspires many.

After 117 years of existence, the most prominent building in town continues to serve its original purpose of housing the Falls City Masonic Lodge. The building communicates the legacy of its founders, their values and the mission of the lodge. If you’re interested in joining, they don’t recruit. All you need to do is ask.

In the firefight, Malone was shot dead and Lashe was severely wounded, dying later in the day. A deputy, Virgil Murphy, was shot in the leg, but recovered. Both accounts estimated that 50 shots had been fired in the incident.

Other headlines that Carnation made in the Carnavall Reporter, which operated from 1952 to 1965, included: “No kindergarten in Duvall, Carnation this year. 36 signed up. Needed 50.” (Aug. 14, 1958); “Town Council votes to hook up with Tolt River-Seattle pipe-line” (April 16, 1959) “407 Citizens’ Club formed to fight moving Duvall 8th graders to Tolt” (May 7, 1959); “Duvall’s request for its own mail delivery turned down. Carnation, Monroe will do it.” (Sept. 8, 1960); and, in a reversal of today’s agreement, “Carnation chief

Tony Trippy will patrol both Duvall & Carnation” (March 15, 1962).Police, infrastructure and schools have been the big areas of

struggle for the little community over the years. The Riverview School District’s decision to close Tolt High School and send all students to Cedarcrest in Duvall in 1993 was a blow that still pains some community members. And some of the city’s wins, like the new stoplight installed last December on Entwistle Street, aren’t wins to everyone. Even the city’s connection to sewers in 2008, marked by a well-attended ribbon cutting and festive atmosphere, had been opposed.

Some feared that Carnation will lose its small-town character with increasing modernizations, but no one seems to want that.

Mader, something of a newcomer to Carnation in 2005, meet-ing with the octogenarians of his new home, sensed it right away in his interviews.

“I didn’t hear anybody say they wished they had a different life,” he said. “They saw themselves, and they weren’t embarrassed by who they were.”

Tackling the obesity epidemicSnoqualmie Valley Hospital physicians offer advice

It’s no secret that obesity is one of the country’s most serious health problems. In the last 20 years, adult obesity rates have doubled while childhood obesity rates have more than tripled, according to an annual report released by Trust for America’s Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

“Obesity is a major health crisis in our country. We take better care of our cars than our bodies,” Karen LaJambe, nurse practitioner at the Primary Care Clinic in Snoqualmie Valley Hospital said. “We get busy in our lives and put exercise at the bottom of our list.”

According to recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 35 percent of American adults are obese. Washington currently ranks 28th in the country, with self-reported obesity rates at 26.5 percent for adults. The latest percentile estimates for children between the ages of 2 and 19 years who are considered overweight or obese range from 26.7 to 33.6 percent.

“Concerns about the trends in children’s weight have been brewing for several years now in the healthcare community,” Ron Spiegel, M.D., and pediatrician for Snoqualmie Ridge Medical Clinic said. “With more and more children being diagnosed with elevated BMIs (Body Mass Index), the conver-sations about this issue need to be out in the open and dealt with directly.”

BMI uses height and weight measurements to estimate how much body fat a person has. Adults who have a BMI of 30 or higher are considered obese. Children are considered obese when their BMI is greater than the 95th percentile.

Obesity contributes to serious diseases and conditions, including heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, arthritis and high blood pressure. Inactivity, poor eating habits and even genetic factors play a role in weight problems.

“We are creating health problems that are preventable with a little health maintenance every day,” LaJambe said. “We have to find a way to increase our activity. Stop what you’re doing for just a little bit. Run in place in your office or in front of your TV and add some activity into your daily routine.”

Healthy lifestyle habits can lower the risk of becoming obese.For other tips on weight management, visit http://www.choosemyplate.gov.

Wintertime bumps, bruises and worse

include chiropractic care for winter healthBy Dr. Scott A. Massengill of Straight Chiropractic, North Bend

With the return of rain and colder weather, the likelihood of slips and falls increas-es. Worse yet, slippery roads create driving conditions that lead to more accidents.

Unfortunately, these wintertime hazards often result in injuries to the musculosk-eletal system (skeletal frame, joints, muscles, ligaments and other connective tissues) that pills do not address. Bodywork, including massage therapy, physical therapy and chiropractic adjustments, is most effective in correcting the underlying injuries and helps the body to heal properly. Just like putting a cast on a broken bone can help bro-ken bones mend properly, appropriately applied bodywork will help musculoskeletal injuries heal quickly and optimally. Uncorrected, these injuries can results in acceler-ated degeneration and ongoing problems of the joints and connective tissues.

Colds and FlusHave you noticed that some people get almost every cold or flu that comes along

and others hardly ever get sick, even in the same family? What we know about catching a cold or flu, is that it is not a matter of luck, but of immune system function. Those who “catch” less colds and flus have a better functioning immune system. This again is not a matter of luck.

One primary means of enhancing the immune system is to reduce stress in the body. When the body is under stress, immune function is reduced. The most critical stress on the immune system is stress to the nervous system. The nervous system and immune system work together to create optimal immune responses. Neural dysfunctions due to spinal misalignments are stressful to the body and lead to a poorly coordinated immune response.

Chiropractic adjustments have been shown to reduce stress on the nervous system and boost the coordinated responses of the nervous system and immune system.

YES on 1240 Will Give More Washington

Students A Chance To SucceedInitiative 1240 will allow up to 40 public charter schools in Washington state over the next five years. Charter schools are public schools that are free and open to all students, with the same teacher certification requirements and academic standards as traditional public schools, and funded based on

student enrollment just like other public schools. However, charter schools allow teachers and principals more flexibility to meet the needs of students, which is especially important for students who are not succeeding in traditional schools. Please join us in voting YES on 1240.

Paid for by YES on 1240: Washington Coalition for Public Charter Schools, PO Box 6552, Olympia, WA 98507, (877) 704-5577Top five contributors: Bill Gates, Alice Walton, Nick Hanauer, Mike Bezos, Jackie Bezos

“Public charter schools across the country have a proven track record of helping students succeed, especially those at risk of falling through the cracks. Initiative 1240 brings the best of what works in other states to Washington.“

Dr. Sam SmithFormer PresidentWashington State University

“As a public school teacher, I’m a strong believer in public education. That’s why I support a YES vote on 1240, to allow public charter schools in Washington. Charter schools give teachers and principals more flexibility to meet the needs of our students… and more options to help them succeed.”

Chris EidePublic School Teacher andCo-Founder, Teachers United

“I’ve studied public charter schools across the country, and I support a YES vote on 1240. Initiative 1240 is a well-written law that requires strict accountability and annual performance reviews. And 1240 ensures that public funding stays with public schools– following students just as it does now.”

Professor Paul T. Hill, Ph.D.University of WashingtonFounder, Center on ReinventingPublic Education

“As a proud graduate of Tacoma Public Schools, an advocate for public education and an elected official who cares deeply about our city and state’s future, I urge you to join me and cast your vote for Initiative 1240.”

Elegance and hubbub: Encompass seeks gala help

Encompass seeks volun-teers for its biggest fund-raiser, the annual Autumn Gala, set for Saturday, Nov. 3.

Hunting boundary changed in annexed mill area

The Mill Planning Area annexation by the city of Snoqualmie, which became effec-tive on September 28, has affected hunting boundaries in the area.

The familiar hunting area of Lake Borst located on Mill Pond Road between Reinig Road and Tokul Road, is now off limits for hunting.

The city will be posting this area as a “No Hunting Zone,” for which the Snoqualmie Municipal Code Chapter 6.08 applies, pro-hibiting the discharge of any firearm within city limits. For information, contact Police Captain Nick Almquist at (425) 888-3333.

Mullet: “Education is the best investment of public dollars,” he said, so the state could save money in other places. King County and the city of Issaquah have implemented Healthy Incentives programs to keep health insurance costs low, and “If it saved tens of millions of dollars for King County, I think it could save hundreds of millions at the state level… If we could take all the money that we’ve saved by alleviating the ridiculous health care inflation… and reinvest every single dollar into education, that’s how I think we would really make a difference in the lives of our kids. “

Spring: It would take $3 billion per year to restore school funding to the national average… where are we going to get $3 billion? Where did the $3 billion go? Well in 1996, we gave away $15 million a year in corporate tax breaks. Currently we’re giving away $45 million a year to wealthy, multi-national corporations like Microsoft. Where I would get the $3 billion is simply by rolling back corporate tax breaks to what they were in 1996.

Magedanz: We have the money to fund education in this state, we just don’t have the money to fund everything else, and it comes down to priorities. If we have a priorities of government approach, we will be able to fund our kids first.

How would you help small businesses overcome regulatory obstacles?

Toft: The uncertainty that exists today is the inhibitor of economic growth. First of all, we need to stop, or at least set a moratorium on the number of regulations that are going on the books every year from our state agencies…. Next we have a B&O tax that is prohibitive for starting businesses here. What I would recommend is putting a floor in on the B&O tax at half a million dollars… and have an incubation period for small businesses, so that don’t pay that tax for the first three years. It’s a tax on revenue, not a tax on profit.

Mullet: In the city of Issaquah, we figured out that we have to regulate and facilitate, otherwise, we can’t get businesses to invest in our community, and some of these things didn’t cost a lot of money (such as calling a new business to let them know what permits information they are still missing before they open). Kind of just reinventing the approach that government has to take for business… Also, I’m very supportive of the AWC’s idea of having one point for B&O tax collections at the state level.

Spring: In my experience as a small business owner, the biggest problem was the B&O tax. We basically competed with the larger stores… I think the B&O tax is extremely harm-ful for small businesses, I proposed a bill in Olympia to eliminate the B&O tax on any busi-nesses making less than $10 million a year, and to pay for it simply by repealing corporate tax breaks on any corporation making more than $1 billion a year.

Magendanz: I believe in raising the floor for the B&O (tax) as well as consolidating the collections so it’s easier to file, easier to stay in compliance. ... Also, we have the most expen-sive workers’ comp program in the nation, we have the fifth most expensive unemployment insurance program in the nation. We started some good work with workers’ comp reform in the last session, but I think there’s a lot more to do.

What’s the best solution for the I-90 corridor and beyond?Toft: “There’s a philosophy that’s pervasive in Olympia, that’s basically social engineer-

ing to get people out of their cars. That philosophy needs to be discarded for an approach where our roads are safer and congestion is relieved.” He proposed looking at all revenues collected, and for those that have a transportation component such as vehicle sales tax, “those need to be put back into the transportation budget.”

Mullet: I like variable rate tolling. I am not a fan of flat-rate tolling, because I don’t think it changes people’s driving behavior. Variable rate tolling achieves something very important, and that’s getting people off the roads, between 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m….The gas tax is a flawed source of funding right now because… (as cars get better gas mileage) we’re going to be buying a lot less gas in the future. I think we toll I-90 as well, because that’s where you get the extra revenue, and that’s how you make it easier for people to move… If we don’t do something to reduce a.m.-p.m. peak, we’re never going to get anywhere.

Spring: I oppose any kind of tolling on I-90 or any place else. We’ve already paid for these roads… The solution to this problem (is a public bank). Instead of basically having our bonding going through Wall Street banks charging us 4 or 5 percent interest… if we had our own public bank, keeping our own tax dollars at work in Washington state… we could charge ourselves 1 percent interest, and it would be a new stream of revenue for the state legislature… but the key issue is it would cut the cost of transportation projects.

Magendanz: Everybody loves the gas tax, because they don’t feel the pain… but the gas tax isn’t going to live much longer…. I’m not a fan of tolling… I think the result is going to be a vehicle-miles travelled approach.

Rodne: Environmentalists and transit advocates want congestion because then, the theory will be that people will drive less. We need to return to a policy of transportation planning that focuses on congestion relief. The reasons why transportation projects cost so much in this state: 1) prevailing wage loss, which price construction projects, public proj-ects right out of the market, and 2) the environmental permitting regulations… There will be a transportation gas tax proposal on the docket next session. I am absolutely opposed to that until we reform the prevailing wage loss, and until we reform the environmental regulations process.
