DUNN TO CR0WELL (Continued from page 1.) place. My .judgment in this matter was backed jiy nIL the directors pres cnt, with the exception oC yourself, Mr. Crowell. That is why yon will not vote for me for county judge. Very truly yoiirs-. GEORGE W. DUNN, . Mcdford, Nov. 2. CROWELL TO DUNN (Continued from Pngo One) culnr like a cold potato, you nrc dis tributing now ng.iii.st Mr. Tou Velle. Here nro the figures as you then gave them: County Expenses Dunn's first year $120.7.200 Dunn's second year 144,876.00 Dunn's third year IC5,475.00 Dunn's fourth year 180,048.00 This was n largo yearly increase of taxes durinc your term. What did you do with this larco sum of money? It certainly wns not spent on Toads or bridges. Where Avas it spent? Do you remember the one great act of your administration, the only time that you tried to originate any thing? Thnt wns your miscalled "equalization" of assessments, when . JySPjB, ,ouRUtleskawt.you added Co per cent to the 'tnjres Jon nil pro perty in the county, except land. By this official net you made the man who had saved up a .thousand dollars in money pay taxes on $1GG0.00; you made the man who owned a $100.00 horso pay taxes on a $100.00 horse; you mndo the jwor widow who owned a $o0.00 cow, pay taxes on an $83.00 cow, nnd so on through the whole list of persounl property. This so-called "equalization" was the only original act of your four year term as judsc. It .was so fin grnnty unjust and so foolibhly silly that it was the chief cause of your defeat for n second term, for it could not be defended, and no one tried to defend it. You ask me why I supported you four years ago? Hero then is the true and candid rcn&on, Mr. Dunn. You and I were then associated to gether in business. For the business' suko nnd credit, I upheld your ad ministration ns judge for I did not want the public to regard you as an official failure, for that would have been, nn admission that you were no account in the business. And for the business' credit, more than yours, I supported you and helped von to AM INDBF pu,W?raB curry the only Med ford precinct that gave you n sraull majority in that cumpaigu. Are you now reviling me for that net, Mr. tymn f How muny precincts do you expect to carry in Mcdford this year, Mr. Dunn? The Mcdford taxpayer who regards his own and tho city's interest can find no good reason for supporting you now. Your venomous but not strictly ac curate statement furnishes mo a uood pergonal reason for not supporting you now, wherein you admit, your injustice and your Ashland prejudice ngainst mo pcrsonully, when von said that "Crowell liuilt a finer 'building than Mcdford needed." Just ns if anything could bo too fine for Mcd ford I except in (he bilious mind of your Ashland prejudice. It is this Mate of mind that niukes you an unsafe innn for Mcdford and Jackson comity to trtibl with their public af fairs with tho present busy mid growing period of their existence Hut persounl reasons are uovor good public ones. I huvo furnished good public reasons why you should not bo cpunty judge Never mind tho jwrflouu! ones, which ypu admit tho justice of. Now, Mr. Dunn, don't "equalize" your temper liko yon did tho tuxes, by wdding 0.r por cent to tho wrath which you seem to entertain for me, but boliovo mo, Very 'truly yours, ;' ; VM. S, CHOWELfc. Bedford, Oct, 4. r. '7s JOYS VERSUS GLOOMS. Tis for those who ally tlunmclvcs with the future thai victory is assured. The past has no prospects." It is because the Mail Tribune has allied itself with the future, that it has fought progress. it is because we believe in Inckson county that we hope Ton Voile as county Judge to ilurinjr the next four veavs It is because the past has no prospects and that George W. Dunn represents the past and the days that are dead, that we hope for his defeat. The coming four years of all in the material development and expansion of t'Jaok ison county. To make them so we should have an executive who really believes in progressive policies not one who ijuardedly and perfunctorily declares himself progressiva for campaign effect. Col. Ton Velle possesses unusual qualifications for the office. lie graduated from the Cincinnati College of Law when President Taft was its dean and Governor Harmon f. lecturer in it. He served two times as county treasurer 0L?tclVTfc 0hi0- ,l 0l; sevon -vettW lK wns ias.h,u,v of the 13auk of Celiiia, O. In the seven years he has resided in the Uoguo river valley, he has owned and planted many orchards. He is a careful, conservative, successful busi ness man, familiar with the needs and requirements of all parts of this county, wide-awake to its opportunities and a firm believer in "its destinies. Only the optimist does things hi this world and "Lucky" Ton Velle is very uiucli of an optimist. He has allied himself with the future. His opponent is his anethesis a veritable "Gloomy Gus" of politics a pes simist who belongs to the pastVhieh has no prospects. PROM JOURNALISM TO POLITICS. NO great issues are involved in the contest for reprii: scntative from Jackson county. Xo vital principle is at stakcr hence it becomes a mere question of personality. All candidates are well known and it is up to the voters. to choose. As one of the candidates is a former newspaper man. journalistic courtesy requires a brief mention of J. V. Barkdull, familiarly known as "Mose", formerly with this paper. iMost. newspaper men -DaiKuuu nas provca no exception to tne rule, lor since leaving the newspaper, he has sold nearly a million dollars worth of Jackson comity realty, and in turn invested his commissions here. If elected to Hie legislature, there is every reason to believe that Mr. Barkdull will hustle just as hard for Iifc constituents as he did in "getting news and ads for the old Medford Mail and as he has since in inducing people to buy Rogue river orchards. VOTE FOR BOURNE. JONATHAN BOURNE has progressive in politics but Oregon and the least Jackson a largo vote as an appreciation Jien belling A'otcd and worked against Crater Lake when in the state senate, helped slaughter the Ashland normal school, and is now opposing the Mcdford rate bill. He has proven an enemy to Jackson county and should be rebuked at the polls in no indecisive fashion. Bourne lias made good and when Oregon has such an asset, it is folly to destroy it. In the copy of the ballot printed in the Mail Tribune, the typographical error appears of vote for two candidates lor short term as county commissioner. J t should read, vote for one, otherwise the vote will be thrown out. A vote for Kelly for prosecuting attorney is a vote for a fearless, efficient prosecutor who will enforce the law vigorously and impartially. The welfare of the county demands his election. Voteno on X 311, and X:i2S, the "majority rule" bills fathered by the Employment association, public service corporations and liquor dealers to destroy the initiative. Don't fail to vote yes on 3G0, count v home rule road bill and yes on 058, the Equitable rate bill. Of Interest Phoenix. Ore, Nov. 2, 1012.
