GURREY
25th.
TO THE REPUBLICAN VOTERS: .
You arc a citizen of Union County and have financial as well as patriotic:
interests in the future of your State and community. I am a candidate for
Republican nomination for Representative to the next Oregon Legislature from
Union County. It is my sincere desire to serve the people of this county
in the coining legislative assembly, and if elected will, do all in my
power to demand a square deal for Union County and Eastern Oregon.
Under the political announcements, cLsewhere hi thus paper you will find
a brief outline' of my: platform. A more complete statement will be found on
page 15 of the Candidate's pamphlet, that has been mailed to all registered Re
publicans in the county. I am the only candidate, who, by his literature, has
openly declared Irimseif a "supporter of Oregon's. Prohibition kv.' ;
The 'fwllowiug was' printed in the Elgin Recorder:
'George Huntington Ourvey is a real estate and insurance man in La
Grande. He is a native of Union Count-, was educated in the La Grande pub
lic schools and later studied law and economics at Willamette University in
Salem, Oregon. Formerly he was in the newspaper, business and. has always
taken an active interest in public affairs. Mr. Currey is a student of social
and political problems, and has a library in his home of over 1000 volumes and
1500 pamphlets, ciivulaj-s, etc., dealing largely with economic and public',
questions. 'Mr. Currey was one of the first supporters of a commission f'oni
of government for the city of La Grande, and believes that state government,
the .same as a city, is not politics; but the people's business, lie stands for. a
simplified and efficient, business-like state government, and 'says that such a
government is more responsible and economical and will make taxes lower."
Your personal advice and suggestions on any present or likely issue will
be gratefully received. Hoping to secure your vote, and pledging myself to do
my best to represent, Union County in a manner that will justify your support, I
wish to remain
.'Sincerely yours,
(Paid Adv.) George Huntington Currey.

F. Dostoieffesky -What has civili
zation done to instil greater mildness
into our bosoms? Civilization deve
lops in man nothing but an added cap
acity for receiving impressions. And
the growth of that capacity further
augments man's tendency to seek
pleusure in blood-letting. , You may
have noticed that t)h most enthusias
tic Mood-letteiB have r.lmost invar
iably been the most civilized of men.
Many . purents, relatives
and friends have satis
factorily solved theprolp
lem of what to give the
children on their birth
days , by starting them
with a savings account
and adding to' it from
year to year.
In the meantime the child
is Also encouraged to slave
and thus early in life is
educated to the habit of
thrift. . ..
The Officers of The Uni
ted States National Bank
recommend savings ac
counts , as satisfactory
birthday ' gifts. As little
as $1.00 will 'start the
child on the "Bank Book
Road" to future happiness.
