OBITUARY
Jackson (Jack) Hayman
April 11, 1919 — Feb. 11, 2017
Jackson (Jack) Hay-
man, 97, of Mount Angel
passed away peacefully at
home on Feb 11. Jack was
born April 11, 1919, to Wil-
liam and Maria (Jackson)
Hayman of North Ando-
ver, Massachusetts. After
graduating high school and then two
years of college, Jack enlisted in the U.S.
Army, where he served from 1942 until
1945. In 1943, Jack married the love of his
life, Juliette Belanger. Jack’s last duty in

After leaving the Army, Jack and Ju-
lie raised their two children and lived in
Carlsbad, New Mexico, for 58 years.
Family members tell stories about
streams, canyons, pear cactus jelly and
touring the Carlsbad Caverns. Jack
worked as an electrician for the PCA pot-
ash mine in Carlsbad for 35 years. In
2013, he received a 65-year member
award from the International Brother-
hood of Electrical Workers (IBEW).
His hobbies included photography,
fretwork, listening to music and building
household electronics, including his own
TV set from a kit. He was a lifelong mem-

Silverton prepares to replace mayor
JUSTIN MUCH
STAYTON MAIL
Silverton is wasting no time in taking
steps toward appointing a mayor follow-
ing the resignation of Rick Lewis.
Lewis, who was first elected to serve
in 2014, resigned Thursday just prior to
being sworn in as the House District 18
state representative.
Silverton City Council President Kyle
Palmer scheduled a special council
meeting to discuss the mayoral vacancy.
As the panel’s president, Palmer cur-
rently serves as the city’s interim mayor.
The special meeting was set for Mon-
day, Feb. 27, in the Silverton City Council
Chambers, 421 S. Water St.
Silverton’s municipal code stipulates:
“Vacant elective city offices shall be
filled by appointment by a majority vote
of the remaining members of the coun-
cil. The appointee’s term of office begins
immediately on appointment and con-
tinues throughout the unexpired term of
the appointee’s predecessor.”
Lewis was re-elected in 2016; the term
runs through 2018.
The former mayor was appointed to
the vacant Oregon House seat following
the resignation of Vic Gilliam, also of Sil-
verton, who cited health issues as central
to his decision. Gilliam had served in the
seat since 2007.
Lewis conveyed to friends and con-
stituents on Facebook late Thursday that

he initially hoped to continue as Silver-
ton’s mayor while also serving in the leg-
islature, which would be permitted un-
der Oregon law given the complexion of
each office; the mayoral post is not a “lu-
crative” one, a factor which would pre-
clude dual representation.

received just this morning determined
that although the matter of the lucrative
position was true, there was a high likeli-
hood that holding both positions would
constitute a violation of the ‘separation
of powers’ provision of the Oregon Con-
stitution,” Lewis wrote. “The reason for
this appears to be primarily that the City
Council, although acting as a legislative
body the same as is the state legislature,
also crosses over into another branch of
government when it hears and makes ju-
dicial decisions on matters such as land
use appeals which then go to a state agen-
cy on further appeal.
“There may have been other reasons
for the opinion concerning ‘separation of
powers’ as well,” he added. “I don’t know.
The legal opinion changed everything
and could possibly put the city at risk as
well.”
Lewis expressed his regrets at the nu-
ances that persuaded him to resign the
mayor’s post. He also indicated that had
he understood them beforehand, he like-
ly would still have sought to fill the HD 18
vacancy.
“No one is more disappointed than I in
this turn of events,” Lewis said. “I also
want to let you know that it would not
have altered my decision to file for the
state representative seat. The differ-
ence is that I would have communicated
my intention to resign as mayor if select-
ed had I known the ‘separation of pow-
ers’ issue was going to occur.”
Silverton City Manager Christy Wur-
ster said Thursday that Monday’s spe-
cial meeting could lead to a council deci-
sion on Lewis’ successor or it may simply
provide the first step in that direction,
depending on how the meeting goes.

Here’s how the deportation
order could affect Oregon
LAUREN E HERNANDEZ
STATESMAN JOURNAL
Over the next six
months, U.S. Immigration
and Customs Enforce-
ment will carry out tar-
geted deportation opera-
tions throughout the coun-
try, according to a memo
released by the Depart-
ment of Homeland Secu-
rity.
The memo implements
President
Donald
Trump’s executive order
“Border Security and Im-
migration Enforcement
Improvements”issued
last month, which allows
local law enforcement to
perform the functions of
immigration
officers,
calls for the hiring of
10,000 more immigration
agents and the expansion
of the southern United
States border.
Rose Richeson, public
affairs officer for Immi-
gration and Customs En-
forcement in Alaska, Ore-
gon and Washington, said
the order prioritizes un-
documented immigrants
who have committed
crime, initially focusing
on those who are convict-
ed of a criminal offense,
but anyone who violates
immigration laws are sub-
ject to arrest, detention
and deportation.
Oregon law enforce-
ment officials said the
memo won’t change their
policies, but immigrant
rights groups worried it
will mean a step-up of en-
forcement.
“This memo essential-
ly makes every undocu-
mented person a priority
for deportation,” said An-
drea Williams, executive
director of immigrant
rights organization Causa
Oregon.
Williams said targeted
raids are already in proc-
ess, pointing to a report of
plainclothes ICE agents
who lingered in the Mult-
nomah County Court-
house and detained a num-
ber of undocumented
immigrants last month.
“This is devastating
for the people accessing
our services, and in many
cases, counterproductive
to a lawful community,”
said a joint statement
released by Multnomah
County Circuit Court,
commissioners, Sheriff
Mike Reese and District
Attorney Rod Underhill.
Marion County Sher-
iff’s Office and Oregon
State Police both reiterat-
ed their adherence to
state law Tuesday, which
prevents law enforce-
ment from using agency
money, equipment or per-
sonnel to detect or appre-
hend undocumented im-
migrants who are only vi-
olating federal immigra-
tion laws.
“We can come across
somebody who is unlaw-
fully in the United States,
but we’re not going to
treat them any different-
ly,” said Oregon State Po-
lice Captain Bill Fugate.
“We do not use our re-
sources with immigration
enforcement, so we fol-
low Oregon statutes as
well as (Oregon State Po-
lice’s) own policy that
states the same thing.”
Lt. Dave Okada, public
information officer of Sa-
lem Police Department,
said Salem Police follows
state law but will work
with the city attorney’s of-
fice to determine how the
order may be interpreted
at a local level.
The order states re-
sources will be allocated
to work in jurisdictions
with “violent crime tied to
gang activities.”
Richeson said she is
unaware of which, if any,
Oregon regions fit into
that definition.
Williams said there are
instances where undocu-
mented immigrants are
arrested with no other
criminal
backgrounds,
like Saul Loeza, a Mexican
native who was arrested
by ICE agents while driv-
ing to work on Thursday,
February 16. He was tak-
en to a detention center in
Tacoma, Washington.
“We’ve been seeing ex-
amples like in Woodburn
where we have a father
who has been contribut-
ing to the community for
27 years, and now he’s
stuck in detention,” Wil-
liams said. “He is a hard-
working father of two
children. Is that a crimi-
nal? I don’t think so.”
Loeza is one of an esti-
mated 130,000 undocu-
mented immigrants in
Oregon, according to Pew
Research Center num-
bers published in 2014.
Undocumented immi-
grants account for 3.2 per-
cent of Oregon’s popula-
tion, 32 percent of the
state’s immigrant popula-
tion, 4.8 percent of the
state’s labor’s force and
8.6 percent of the number
of K-12 students. Roughly
75 percent of undocu-
mented immigrants in the
state are from Mexico, ac-
cording to the Pew Re-
search Center.
The order would not af-
fect recipients of the De-
ferred Action for Child-
hood Arrivals, or DACA,
the Obama administra-
tion policy that allows un-
documented immigrants
who entered the United
States as minors eligibil-
ity for work authoriza-
tion.
Roughly 11,896 DACA
applications have been ac-
cepted by U.S. Citizenship
and Immigration Ser-
vices in Oregon as of Sep-
tember 2016, according to
the Migration Policy
Institute.
Williams said Causa is
currently analyzing the
memo and strategizing to
determine the potential
impacts on families in
Oregon. The organization
does plan on rolling out
initiatives to address the
order, including preven-
tative approaches like
workshops that teach un-
documented immigrants
their rights.
