School Sam was checking his instruments when he saw the thermometer climbing over 107,600 degree« at the earth's core. Sam went down there to see what was the trouble. When Sam got there he saw millions of coffins tailing into the core. The fire was getting bigger and bigger. Molten lava was coming up the boles the coffins made, forming millions of volcanoes every where. Sam went to the North Pole and stuck a long pipe in the earth.

We will have higher electric bills. Oppose #9! Vote NO on 9. It is not in your best interest to vote yes. Elect Gory D. W olfe Ch , 8435 S.E. 17th. Eugene Jackson Clackmos County Commission Throughout my entire cam paign, I have tried to speak to the issues-- citizen participation, fin an cia l concerns, local governm ent efficien cy and individual property owners' rights. I have researched the library issue, and I question that le g ality o f the procedures used to close our county libraries. I do believe that the county should have handled the situation w ith the parks and libraries d ifferently. If elected Commissioner, I w ill im m ediately im plem ent the fo llo w in g procedures in an attem pt to resolve the county's financial difficulties: I w ill exam ine the budget and programs in each deportm ent in an e ffort to trim any budgetary " f a t ," I w ill establish a program to incorporate citizen involvem ent and participation in the early planning stages and throughout the entire county budgetary process, I w ill seek special foundation grants and federal monies earm arked for local governments, I w ill obtain citizen input on researching other avenues for county support other than the already over-burdened property tax base.'
