MR. VOTER:
As the regular Republican notnint tor the office of County
Surveyor of your county, I sm suiting your support in the coming
contest. My only opponent is Mr. Rice, present incumbent and
independent candidate, who went into the Republican primariti
with me last print, stating that lie was s candidate "anbject to the
approval of the Republican voter of Crook county," and wai beat
en in s fair contest, but now makes himself again a candidate In
disregard of the spirit of direct primary law and of Ilia wiahe of
his party.
I sm s Civil Engineer with six years experience, including ex
perience s s deputy county iuiveyor in Crook and slso other coun
ties in Oregon. I feel that I am competent to fill the position in
which I seek, snd am prepared to give it my fullest attention, keep
ing at all time s man st the office to advise with road petitioners
snl others having business with the County Surveyor.
Mr. Rice ask yon to vote (or him because be has presented the
county s present ownership book, snd slso field notes (or the en
tire county. Mr. Rice has not presented the county anything. The
county paid mors than $9,000 for the present-ownership maps, of
which Mr. Rice obtained s portion. They were made by person
working by the day at s cost of twice the lowest bid presented to
the county court, which mskes it plain why Mr. Rice desire s
third term. Mr. Rice slso received pay for all field note furnished,
and he ha furnished only about half of tbem.
A more detailed itatement will be furnished on request and the
county record are open at all times for inspection in aupport of
