C. B. W atson , Gold Hill Who is to meet this expense? If county records stored Official Paper of the City of Jacksonville Oregon in these temporary quarters are to be given anything like adequate protection large fire-proof steel vaults must be installed. Besides the expense of installing the vaults, which involves a very considerable sum, this means of protection necessitates reinforcing either one of these buildings from the ground up. Is it probable that the owner of such a property is going to dig deep in his pocket to pay the expense of practically reconstructing his building in return for the privilege of housing county offices for a limited length of time? In addition to the amount required to remodel and equip a temporary court house, in the event of county seat removal, the county will be called upon to pay no inconsiderable sum as office rent during the next few years. Bear in mind that this great expense is for merely temporary quarters—that the amount expended in remodeling and equipping a building which will be vacated as soon a new court house can be erected, as well as in payment of office rent, would be a dead loss to the taxpayers of many thousands of dollars, and would result in less efficient service and inferior pro tection to the records. The Mail-Tribune complains that little enthusiasm re garding court house removal is displayed in the county outside of Medford. Taxpayers have learned that en thusiasm manifested in Medford’s behalf is very apt to prove an expensive luxury, and, as an example, point to a certain bridge which was constructed in Medford, at the county’s expense, some few years ago.
