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.
