Receives Indorsements
It is gratifying and pleasing to Hills­
boro friends of Judge Donald E. Long to
have him indorsed by the Journal and
Oregonian fo rju d g e of the court of domes­
tic relations out of a field of four. The
Oregonian says in p a rt:
The Oregonian is impressed w ith th e qualifica­
tions, experience and record of Donald E. Long,
form er municipal judge. He is experienced in the
handling of youth and social problems. His rep u ta­
tion for upright fairness as a judge is w ell es-,
tablished. He enjoys the general esteem of t h e ’
public and legal profession. He is this new spaper's
choice for th e place he seeks.
Judge Long is the son of Mr. and Mrs,
L. A. Long of Hillsboro and spent his boy­
hood days here, attending the l o c a l
schools. His many friends here and this
new spaper wish him every success in his
cam paign for circuit judge.
