Straud Price is very proud of the fact that his aged father of Albany, Nimrod Price, was able to be out and register October 15. He is the oldest voter in Linn county where he has lived continuously for 60 years. Mr. Price is 92 years of age. He cast his first vote for Zachary Taylor, the 12th president of the United States. The old gentleman is hale and hearty despite his burden of years. at H Business Men with Serious The News says that the Journal "got the facts reversed" last week when it stated that the division forces were working overtime. The Journal did nothing of the kind. And we repeat that it was the strenuous campaign of the di vision forces that aroused those of the opposition to a sense . of the danger that menaced the county. We also take this occasion to re peat that where both sides are given a fair hearing th,e "pris" get the worst of it. This was true of the Ashwood meeting held Tuesday evening as well as of the meetings held last week. A few samples of some of the misleading statements made by the Madras people will serve to back up this assertion. In the first place an election expense of 15,300 is figured up against the old county while none is estimated in the budget of the proposed new county oi Jefferson because no election is to be held next year. Then why do they charge election expenses to the old county. The reason is obvious Then again. In the Jefferson county budget 1500 is allowed for widows' pensions. How long would this paltry sum last when Crook county has this year in eight months paid out to Jefferson coun omne & CO.' Charged Accusations ty widows the sum of 1 18C5? At the present rate it would cost the proposed new county approximately t2000 for 12 months. These cold facts knock the Madras bunch right off the perch. Get the records and see for yourself. But such mis representations must be made if any plausible reasons are given for a division of the county. The Jefferson county people stated that they would have their own county fair. Well and good. But why didn't they put their mill age into their estimate? It was overlooked. The millage for coun ty expenses was growing too fast. Just another item to show how worthless is the estimated budget of Jefferson as a vote winner: In the old county is a miscellaneous account of 13200 to take care of courthouse expenses, such as janitor, lights, water, etc., expenses that must be met, but the new county hasn't made such provision. It would add to the millage. These are just a few sample illustrations of the misleading way in which the "pros" seek to ac complish their ends- The News says: "Business men do not spend their time and money chasing over the country trying to influence voters because of their Continued on page eight.
