VOLUME XXXIV _______ o* / ---------- £ — 6 • — ttnttw (6i*nur Snttüu'l I GRANDDAD OF 86-YEAR OLD I CITIZEN VERYNEARLY | SPOILS MORAL EXAMPLE Law of the Land Means Noth­ ing to County Commission­ ers in the Spending of County Funds. DISTRICTAnORNEYFLAYSTHEM Sharp and Roney Set Aside Find­ ings of Their Own Engineer to Favor Contractors. Charting that County Commission­ ers Emmett Sharp and L. N. Roney have juggled different funds in the county budget, that they have let road jobB in direct violation of the provisions of the law, that road contracts that have been let by them have cost the taxpayers in some cases more than twice the amount agreed upon, that the cost of road building on jobs undertaken by the court’s own forces has been thousands of dollars greater than it was under the former court and that certain firms and contractors seem to be favored by the commissioners in the purchase of supplies and in the letting of contracts. District Attorney Clyde N. Johnston in an address at the armory in Eugene Monday night told an audience of more than 1000 persons from all parts of the county why ho thought the two commissioners should be re­ called. Funds Are Overdrawn. He took up the matter of the overdrafts in the several funds of the budget. The public prosecutor said tho records show that the two commissioners go into one fund and overdraw it and to cover up the overdraft make transfers from an­ other fund without returning it, when the law provides that when in an emergency the court is com­ pelled to borrow from a fund the amount must be returned. Ho stated that last year the emergency fund as fixed in the budget amounted to $10,000 but thut the county court had increased it to $44,000 by put­ ting all miscellaneous receipts into it, actually spending $34,000 more than the taxpayers had authorized them to pay. He said that this method of juggling is in direct vio­ lation of the law. Tire Deal Explained. Mr. Johnston touched upon al leged discriminât (pn against local dealers in the purchase of supplies for county use. He stated that Gus L. Neeley, a Eugene automobile tire dealer, submitted to the commission ers prices on certain makes of tires which averaged 20 to 30 per cent less than the same make of tires that wore bought by the commis­ sioners of the Cascade Sales com pany in Portland. He further stated that the Cascade Sales company and the Warren Construction company, the largest paving and road contrac­ tors in the country, were headed by the same officers. The district at­ torney said that after the commis­ sioners had bought their tires a rep­ resentative of the Cascade company came to Mr. Neeley and said: “You can’t sell any tires to the county court here. We have the business. You keep your mouth shut and 1 will pay you your cut. ’ ’ Touching on the management of the poor farm, the public prosecutor charged that soon after Ben Russell was let out as superintendent of the farm, Commissioner Sharp sold four or five registered Jersey cows on the farm to a local meat firm for $130 and bought from two farmers of the county five grade cows at $115 each, or a total of $575 for cows to replace better ones sold for a total of $130. And there was no record of the transaction, he stated. Another instance of trading where there was no record kept, said the district attorney, was when the com­ missioners traded the county’s Aus­ tin gas road roller to the Howard- Cooper company for a Buffalo-Pitt steam roller, being allowed $1100 for the gas roller. It was afterward admitted by a member of this firm, he said, that the Austin roller was sold to another party for $2400, a profit of over 100 per cent. Road Figures Surprise. Facts and figures that had been given by Mr. Johnston were more or less familiar to most of those in the audience but when he came to the matter of road contracts a few things that had never before been made public were sprung and from that time on the speaker was given the closest attention. Quoting the law which provides that all projects costing more than $1500 must be built nnder contract wherein there are competitive bids, the district attorney told of a num ber of instances where this provi­ sion was violated, mentioning the south Alder street road and the Danebo road west of Eugene, where J. R. McKy, former county road­ master. was hired to build the ronds without any apparent supervision. He stated that the contract for the building of 7% miles of the Coburg north bond project road was let to a contractor by the name of Hansen for $2*1,438.75 but that up to date the court has paid out $46, OOP on this project. He said that the co struct for furnishing and spreading rock on 14 miles of the Mohawk highway was let to the Igoe COTTAGE GROVE, LANE COUNTY, 4 Cottage Grove has long been fa­ mous for the longevity of its resi­ dents. Eighty years is about the same as adolescent youth elsewhere. Here is the best one yet illustrating that fact: A worker in the ranks of prohi­ bition visited the city a few days ago to visit a citizen who has reached his eighty-sixth year and is said never to have touched a drop of liquor. She called upon tho man and the following conversation re­ sulted: “I understand that you are 86 years of age and that you have never touched a drop of liquor.’’ ‘ ‘ That is correct, madam. ’ ’ “I am writing a book in which I wish to use you as an example of the fact that abstinence from liquor is conducive to longevity. Du you believe that the fact that you have abstained from liquor accounts for the fact that you look so young at your advanced age!’’ ‘ ‘ Absolutely, madam. ’ ’ “And your advice to young men is to leave liquor alone if they would reach the years thnt you have attained? ” “Absolutely, madam.” At this point there was a noise in the kitchen that sounded like furniture and dishes being thrown around. Tho woman asked wor­ riedly: “My, what’s all that noise?” “Don’t you worry, madam, you’re perfectly safe. That’s only my granddad. I’m afraid this moon­ shine whisky is going to kill him.” JAMES H. M’FARLAND, PIONEER Of 1853JS DEAD Had Seen Cottage Grove Develop From Wilderness During 70 Years of Residence. James Henderson McFarland, pio­ neer of 1853, died here Thursday morning following a stroke of par­ alysis. Funeral services were held Friday afternoon at tho pioneer McFarland cemetery. Mr. McFarland was born at Booneville, Mo., July 4, 1845. He crossed tho plains with his father, J. W. McFarland, and at the time of death was living upon a portion of tho donation land claim taken up by the elder McFarland, upon which a large part of the city of Cottage Grove is located. The train in which they crossed the plains, made up of the elder McFarland, a brother, two other men and four children, was one of the smallest trains that ever made the long trek. Mr. McFarland had lived here 70 years and had seen Cottage Grove develop from a wilderness. In addition to being born on the Fourth of July, Mr. McFarland was married at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, in the year 1865. That was the ex­ act time of the year upon which the armistice following tho recent world war became effective. Mrs. McFar­ land, who survives, crossed the plains in the same year as Mr. Mc­ Farland. They observed their fifty­ seventh anniversary last year. Of six children born, all are living and are residents here. They Recall Petitions Circulated. are Mrs. W. W.

So much has been said by correspondents in one of the Eugene papers as to the posi­ tion of the eilitor of The Sen­ tinel upon the recall, what has been said having been repeated at home as the position of The Sentinel, that The Sentinel wishes once and for all to make its position clear. Despite anything that may have been said to the contrary, neither The Sentinel nor its editor has attempted to pro­ mote the recall by attacking the moral character of either commissioner, nor will it at any time during the campaign make any such attack. What little has been said upon the moral question has been in re­ ply to attacks upon its editor by correspondents. Whatever The Sentinel has said has been directed at both commissioners and applied equally to both. Everything which it has to say during the campaign will be of the same nature. The moral issue has not been raised by The Sentinel, nor will it be. The Sentinel believes that it has shown that there has been gross inefficiency and extravagance, from the feeding and clothing of bootlegger con­ victs to tho letting of road con­ tracts, upon which subjects it expects to have considerable to say during the recall campaign, hut it will deal only with what the results have been, not with the moral derelictions, if any, of the commissioners who are the objects of the recall. The editor of The Sentinel urged Colonel Mercer not to raise the moral issue which has caused such a furore and pointed out that the attack he proposed to make should, at once result in an effort to land him in jail. For his own reasons he ig­ nored the advice. The Sentinel repeats that it has made no charges against the moral character of either commissioner; that it has singled neither commissioner out for a personal attack; that whatever it has said, or shall say, will apply equally to both. The inefficiency and extrava­ gance shown by the records are sufficient to arouse the voters to the drastic action which is asked of them. VETS OF LANE COUNTY GET HALF MILLION IN LOANS Large Number of Homes Are Made Possible With Aid of Money Coining From State. More than half a million dollars in loans has been paid to 208 world war veterans in Lane county by the world war veterans state aid com­ mission, according to Colonel Wil­ liam A. Aird, special representative of tho commission, who was in Lane county during the past week. There have been no foreclosures in Lane county and very few delinquencies, said the colonel, who declared it to be an excellent record for the coun ty and reflects credit not only on the veterans but on the board of appraisers made up of John Dillard and John W. Hobbs, of Eugene, and Claude Washburne, of Junction City. The exact amount received by the veterans in this county on loans is $502,2f»0, said Colonel Aird, and the bulk of tho money has been loaned on city property. Many new homes were made possible by borrowing from the state fund. Colonel Aird announced that the veterans who have made initial ap­ plications for loans have until June 30, 1927, to make final application for an additional loan. INCOME TAX DRIVES MONEY AND INDUSTRY FROM STATE That millions of dollars havo al­ ready left the state, that other mil­ lions will follow and that still other millions will be kept from coming to the state as a result of Oregon ’a income tax, were among the argu­ ments presented to a group of busi­ ness men of tho city at a noon luncheon yesterday at Hotel Bar tell at which T.-E. McCrosky, of Portland, was tho »rwaker. He said that the income tax is right in theory but that in practice it in greatly injuring the state through driving industry out and keeping other industry away, in the end greatly injuring the producers who depend upon the home market ere ated by industry. Washington and California, the speaker said, were taking advantage of Oregon’s In­ come tax law to get industries to locate in those states that would locate here except for the income tax.

WHEELER, Of PLEASANT HILL, HEADS RECALL Move to Be Put on Business Basis; Inefficiency and Extravagance to Be Charged. The proposed recall is now well under way with tho organization of a county committee, which will put the move on a business basis and conduct it entirely upon the basis of gross inefficiency and gross ex­ travagance on the parts of Com­ missioners Sharp and Ronoy. It is thought thnt on this basis the recall will progress much more rapidly than it has been progressing. W. L. Wheeler, of Pleasant Hill, one of the most prominent farmers of the county, is tho chairman and the members of tho executive com­ mittee are C. L. Teshner and Mrs. R. M. Day, Eugene; Ira Baker, Junction City; Mrs. C. E. Taylor, Thurston; Mrs. Ruth Addison, Lo­ rane. The organization of tho county committee followed an address made by Colonel Mercer Thursday last before the Eugene Ministerial asso­ ciation. E. V. Stivers, president of the association, in his remarks introduc­ ing Colonel Mercer, declared the ministers and the churches which they represent cannot enter into politics and cannot back any recall movement only to tho extont that moral issues are involved. Tho min­ isterial association took no part in tho organization of the committee to further tho recall, tho ministers’ meeting and that of tho citizens interested in the recall being en­ tirely separate.
