A Measure that De
serves Your Approval
One of the measures that is to
be submitted to the voters on No
vember 4 is the county attorney
bill that provides for a district at
torney for each county in the state
in lieu of the present system of a
district attorney for a group of
counties. The proposed measure is
generally deemed to be an improve
ment over the old system which has
been repudiated now by most of the
states.
ine diii win create no new
officers. Under it each county will
have its own prosecuting attorney
elected directly by the voters every
four years. The salary of the
county attorney is paid by the state
and not by the county and will be
spent at home. The salaries of all
district attorneys are cut. It is a
business proposition whereby the
county will elect its own prosecutor
who will be always at hand to ad
vise with other county officials and
look after law violations promptly
when they arise. The bill should
have the approval of every voter.
Too Much Booze.
Sheriff Elkins went to Madras
Tuesday to inquire into the death
of a man named Moore, who was
found dead in the city calaboose.
It was reported in Prineville that
the man received rough treatment
and died from the result of his in
juries. The sheriff found that this
was not true. Moore, who is a
well-known character in that town
has been in the habit of getting
permission from the marshal to
sleep in the bug house. Upon this
occasion Moore had supplied him
self with a bottle of whiskey and
next morning was found dead.
Acute alcoholism was the cause.
