Emmett Sharp, of Cottage Grove, Announces His Candidacy for County Commissioner Cottage Orovo, Ore., March 10, 1920. — H aving been approach«**! by mnny o f my friend», vs ho have knowledge o f my eigh t years o f experience in road construction, m juosting me to become a candidate fo r county commissioner in the republican primaries, 1 have de cided tu announce my candidacy and in doing so desire to stnte some o f my view s upon the present situation on the road quotation as a ffected by the o ffic e o f county commissioner. F irst: I am not seekiug this o ffic e to learn the road business, and I be lie v e my road experience qualifies me to spouk with a thorough knowledge o f conditions in Luuo county at the present time. 1 am a strong advocate fo r building GOOD roads and K E E P IN G them good, and I maintain that I can re duce the coat o f road construction and maintenance and save many dol lars o f the taxpayers’ money now ex pended in unnecessary overhead charges fo r sujiervision and other leaks £rom^jJie^aimit^jninio^jliat^j»heaiM^be^ stopped at the commissioner's court room. For instance the o ffic e o f county road superintendent nt a salary o f #3000 per year and expenses. The county rock crusher superinten dent at a salary o f $2100 per year and expenses. The county bridge superintendent at a salary o f $21t>0 per year and e x penses, all together probably $10,000 per year. W ith all due respect to the nbove o fficers who nre personal friends o f nunc, I maintain that such o ffic e * are an unnecessary expense and that the county commissioners court and county engineer should do the super vising, nnd a foreman under them who could not build a road,* run a rock crusher or build or repair a bridge with them to advise hint, is not n profitable employe fo r the county. As it is at the present time we have the commissioners with superintendents under them, the su|>eri!itendenta have ARCADE THEATER WEEKLY PROGRAM F R ID A Y A N D S A T U R D A Y , M ARCH 12-13—C L A R A K IM B A L L Y O U N G in “ E Y E S OF Y O U T H ,” a story that deals with the problem of knowing the right thing to do— whether to sacrifice one’s happiness for others or to choose the career that means the soul’s higher development.

Plain paper o f some soft shade fo r tho walls, with a liorder o f some rich shade which w ill either harmonize or contrast with the color scheme o f the room is best to use. Usually drapery o f some kind should lie used at the windows but i f they shut out the light use either a thin white one or none at all. D on ’t make the mistake o f putting too many picture» in this room. Brown, deep red or blue are all good colors fo r the din ing room, and a b it o f bright yellow «•an often be added with good effect. The furniture should be plain and not too much o f it.

I am in fnvor o f a patrol system that patrols, but not the present sys tem. I deotu it unnecessary to have four or fiv e bosses over one man. At present we have the county eommis sinners, the county road auperinten- dent, the general patrolman, the super visor, and, lust but not least, the man to do the work. When a rend o f any typo is com pleted, the effe c t o f the elements and tho travel tend to destroy it, and those operations required constantly to oppose this deterioration o f the road enlisti tutes ‘ ■general maintenance.’ ’ Without this maintenance the road after a time is partially destroyed and opera l unis necessary to restore it constitute “ repairs.” The term “ general main tenanco ” means C O N T IN U E D mainte nance, that is, keep the road up all the time free from ruts and holes which i f allowed cause heavy expense for repairs. A road properly “ main tain ed” may not need repairs for an indefinite interval, but a road oven properly repaired always needs ‘ inai.i tenanco.” The proper wny to handle this is to g iv e n patrolman a certain mileage or what he can maintain, and keep him on the jo b fillin g ruts, clearing ditch es, etc., and pay him from the amount saved on supervision; the amount saved on the three officers above named would easily maintain L in e cou n ty’s share o f the P a cific highway from the north to the south line and we would have ;i good road ul! the time, instead o f just a few months cf- ter the annual repair v ork, and the saving from present patrol system would properly patrol many o f our side roads. • The patrolmen should he directly un der the commissioners and held re sponsible to them fo r efficien t work. I f elected county commissioner I would insist upon gettin g a d ollar’s worth o f road fo r the dollar expended, which I believe we arc not receiving under the present system. The above criticisms with their rem edies are offered to the taxpayers for their decision, ndtl with my assurance to them that I w ill use my best on deavors to put them into practice, as well as many other economies too no incrous to mention here, which could bo put into practice without interfer ing with e ffic ie n t service, and which savings I believe should be put into OOOl» roads and to K E E P them GOOD.
