J. Horton, of Junction City, and published in both Eugene papers, the editor of The Sentinel submit- ted the following questions to Mr. Horton through The Guard: Why was it necessary to pay to the Warren construction company for rock for the Lorane road $5000 more than a bona fide offer made to the county! Why was the Warren Construc tion company relieved of the $25-a- day penalty on this road, a total of about $7500! Why did the commissioners dis regard the law and contract a debt of $2400 in trading one road roller for another old road roller! Why does the company which profited by the trade refuse to an swer questions as to when this old roller was made, how long it has been used and what it was actually worth! How did it happen that the com missioners were so insistent upon changing the report of thoir own engineer upon the excavation of the Cheshier north road, when doing so meant a profit of many thousand dollars to the contractor! Do you think it happened just ac cidentally that the price for inter mediate upon this job was $1.90, when the average price theretofore paid by the county, as shown by the records, for exactly the same kind of excavation was 60 cents! Explain how it was possible that one yard of earth moved was worth 37 cents and the next yard moved with the same equipment and at practically the same expense was worth $1.90, or five times as much. How does it come that these com missioners came to adopt the policy of consid“ring their county engineer a mere errand boy when former commissioners had implicit trust in his ability! Tho commissioners will tell you that it is up to them to share the responsibility with the engineer and that the engineer was not giving the contractors a square deal upon the Cheshire north road; that some of the dirt was slightly more ex- pensive to move than common, Grant that such was the case and answer these questions: If the commissioners were so sym pathetic for the poor contractors, why didn’t the contractors imitate the example of the commissioners and reduce the price to what it should have been! Why did they insist upon taking advantage of tho accidental (!) fact that they had a bid in at more than twice what it was worth to move intermediate! The commissioners had the contrac tor over a barrel. They could have accepted their engineer’s figures, as other county courts have done, in which case the contractor could have whistled for his $1.90 the yard. Why didn’t they insist that the contractors emulate the commission ers’ noble example of playing fair instead of demanding their pound of flesh! Did you ever hear of a contractor returning to the couuty any part of an excess profit! If not, why are the commissioners so solicitous for the welfare of those who have no sympathy for others! Do you approve of the county fur nishing traveling expenses for a candidate for office, which seems to be the principal idea behind the appointment of a candidate for sheriff to a special inspector’s job! Don’t you believe it was extrava gant to pay $1000 for legal ser vices to an outside attorney for ad vice which the commissioners af terwards refused to follow! Mr. Sharp holds a personal grudge against a certain manufacturer of goods used in large quantities by the county. Do you think that he acted as a commissioner should when he stated to this manufacturer (using some of the ribald languag that characterizes his conversation) that this manufacturer could not sell to the county regardless of quality or price! What 1 b your defense of paying for superintendency of the Florence bridge an amount equal to the actual cost of doing the work! What is your defense of threats that no road work would be done for those who signed recall peti tions! What is your defense of the idea of turning moonshiners and boot leggers out of the county jail to work eight hours for the county and spei;d the remainder around their usual haunts! What is your defense of a state ment by a county commissioner that he was “damned glad’’ that two bootleggers, or moonshiners—a man and a woman—made their es- cape and got married! That is a rather effeminate statement made by Commissioner Sharp before the taxpayers’ meeting. Why are the commissioners ’ per- sonal expenses doublo those of for- mer commissioner! Why did Commissioner Sharp urge former employes of the county to present claims for back wages aggregating $6000, when they were well satisfied with their settlement with the county! What is your defense of the sale of Roney’s bridge tools to the county a few days after he beenme commissioner! Why was it a crime to borrow market road money for use on a Cottage Grove bridge when Sharp was hectoring Harlow and Barnard, while there is now nothing wrong in juggling huge sums of the taxpay ers’ money from one fund to anoth er without so much as a legal trans fer! Why is a county cruise at 22(4 cents any better than a private cruise of timber at 10 cents, or 15 cents, or 16 cents, the highest price ever paid for like work by the timber owners! What is your defense of payment of~ wages to a road superintendent YOU USE THE FORESTS. as she would have you observe it. Tho mother that held you to her breast and dreamed all the dear dreams of motherhood would first of all desire that motherless, home less children should be both moth ered and sheltered. Buch is the pur pose of the children’s farm hope. The two cottages of the home are filled to overflowing. Love cannot enlarge them to admit another boy or girl. The third cottage, nenring completion, has more applicants than it will contain. A fourth cot- taeg is urgently needed.

You use the forests when you build a home, when you eat a meal, when you read a newspaper, when you go camping or hunting, when you drive an automobile, when you ride on a train, when you go to a movie, when you build a fire. In these and hundreds of other things you do, you use the forestB —every day—in one form or an other. Abundant forests stand for a better America, a higher standard of living, happier and more pros perous homes, a greater outdoors, better fishing and hunting, more beautiful roads, more wild flowers and wild life—for all that makes for a better, cleaner and healthier life—you, Mr. American Citizen, are using your forest capital more than five times faster than it is being replaced.
