Record of Jonathan Bourne
SAM E. CUMMINS
Mr. S E. Cummins pre^nt County Commissioner is a candidate for relection.
This office is of m ire importance than any other in the county. It deals
with the vital interests of every citizen To the County Commissioner is en
trusted the expenditure of large sums of money for the building of bridges, con
structing of highways, caring for dependent poor, opening and workingquarries,
distribution of building materials, and hundreds of other details.
This requires executive ability, patience and judgement of a high order
coupled with moral courage to do the right in spite of adverse criticism of those
who fails to carry through some personal scheme.
Mr. Cummins has been a resident of Yamhill County most of his life with
an acquaintance in all parts of the district. He knows the conditions snd needs
of the people ami possesses the ability to meet the demands in a practical way,
hence the need is met in a substantial manner, at least possible expense.
In public work it is now a recognized fact that true econnomy does not con
sist in the smallest expenditures, but in always getting the best, that which will
last longest, for your money. Millions of dollars have been utterly wasted in
this valley through ignorant methods in road work and bridge building. The
present condition of our highways and the permanent structures spanning our
waterways, where before had been trans for roads and rotten wooden bridges
for crossings demonstrate the good horse sence of our present commissioners.
Does some citizen protest and call attention to our increasing indebtedness?
Read the partial list of substantial, warranted structures that in the last four
years have taken the place of the ramshackle, costly, dangerous things we call
ed bridges and culverts and remember, that these are all paid for, that they
will stand forever, that expense has stopped and THAT OUR COUNTY IS LESS IN
DEBT THAN EVER BEFORE.
