out the tax roil for Union County.
As you tear yourself away from this
ofBoe. and look for other offices to inspect,
you are confronted with a doorplate read-
ng. ' Recorder of conveyances". Just
s-ep insde and O H. Procter, who was
ahrtost tne unanimous choice of tne voters
at the last e;ecti:.n. will find time to lay
before you. a few of the books in which
are kept strict and thorough records of
every re I estate transfer made in the
c ;unty. Mistdkn are disastrous in this
office end Mr. Pi octor prides himself on
tne fact that ne or his assistant can copy
the .ntricate land descriptions day after
day wmiout a mistake. The modern.
ook typewriter, wnicn this omce is
biassed with, is manipulated by Deputy
L. W. Damon. Naturally his duties do
noi ena witn tnis machine and many
matters of importance are daily trans-
acted by tnis caoable deputy, under the
supervision of Recorder Pi octor. When
the consignee ano consignor drop into this
office to recoid a real estate transfer,
they seldom realize the amount of viork
; mat uuie transaction means to tne re
corder and his deputy. You will come
away feeling satisfied that the recorder is
attending faithfully to the duties in the
office to which he was elected.
As you withdraw from the Recorder's
o.tice, you naturally keep going across
the corridor until you stand in the asses
sor's orhce. J. H. Morton superintends
here and delicite indeed are the compli
cations he contends with. From this office
are sent out th : tcor or m; e of deputies
that assess tne property of this county,
and from ih.s office these s.ma man ara
sipervised. The recent ruling of the
supreme court with regard to the exemp
tion of personal property, caused sleep less
nights for the assessor during the
summer months. But he at last master
ed the situation, and at the appointed
time had his assessment roll ready for
the board of equalization. Tne highest
compliment thatcan be paid the efficiency
of this county offic al. is the fact that ex
ceedingly few. were the changes made
by the board when that body met and
went over the assessments as placed
there by Mr. Morten. T. A. Rinehart.

As you close the door behind you, you
are standing before the the office of
Coun:y Superintendent of Schools, E. E.
Bragg. Be sure and listen to the story
of tne superintendent for it is interesting
in the extreme tj know how the coming
generations, the ones that will eventually
control the affa rs of this county, the
little tots that I. ve on the farms of the!
valley, .are etuca'cd The work before ;
this official is in some respects, the most :
responsible of sny. While the county's ;
currency is not trusted in his hards, he '
has a vastly mote important field, thaf
of properly educatirg the young. You'
will seldom find him there though, for he
is cut in tne c;untry mingling with the
rural schools and offering suggestions as
tothe best way to tech tne iittie fellow ;
now in his knee breeches, but wno will j
sometime sooner or later, face the bigj
wide world, and the way he does this i
one act of his life, depends largely on his
early training and education. He will j
tell you how the state of Oregon is assist- j
ing in producing literature for the young ;
that is above suspecion and that will do!

which he strives every hour, and the end
for which men even greater than he have
grown gray haired over, that of properly
educating the rural scholor.
"Jails and state prisions are the comp
lements of schoois; So many less you
r-ave of the latter, so many more you
must have of the former." Horace
Mann.
, During your interview with the school
superintendent you might have noticed by
looking thru the glass door, a sign read
ing ' County Treasurer." Here you will
naturally go next and interesting too, will
be your visit. John Frawley is the man
whom the county chose to handle its act

ceives thru its various sources. System,
characterizes every entry in this office
and the thousands of dollars t.-.at are in
trusted to his care are always kept track
When your interview has closed her !
you find it necessary to climb the broad
stairs before you find other offices. On
reaching th head of th stairs, you will
find "County Judge" written on th door
to your right. You don't have to knoc k
for the latch string is always out in
Judg Henry' office. You will find him
inside, ready to us his conservative
judgement on matter that com under
hi jurisdiction. Few question of im
portance to th county there are, that do
not on time or other, com under his
direct supervision. It i safe to say that
there are score of questions coming up
for settlement, daily, that requires cool
deliberation, that the public is entirely ig
norant of. Matters of probite, wher .
the father and motherless child must
have his proper allotment, also th car of
dependent, old, decrept and other s mhr
cases too numerous to mention, com up
frequently and th Judg must us much
descrimination in disposing of these cases.
Questions of roads, poor houses, poor
farms and other county properties must
be dealt with. The Judge has as hit ad
visors, two competent men, J. M. Selder,
of Cove, and Benjamen Brown, The
integrity of these two men does much to
alleviate the duties of the County Judge.
It is but a few steps until you stand
before the desk of James Qilhain, County
Clerk for Union county. Many are the

When this block is sold no more will be offered and the price will
be advanced to 20c per share. One year ago the stock sold for
5c, today at 15c. You will have the same chance now to double
your money in the next year.
The Company has decided to sell this much of its treasury
stock to clean up its debts. It has cost slightly more than was
calculated to install its present plant and build roads, etc., and the
Company is desirous of keeping the Aurelia out of debt. Sold
for this purpose and only for this, the Company offers the
above treasury stock. Buy now if you desire a holding with us.
The property is well enough known to need no mention htre.
