W. W. Harrah
Sort of Mayor
of Pendleton
In the following caustic communication W. W. Harrah,
prominent local farmer and law enforcement worker,
takes issue with Rev. Hodshire and point out some things
the Christian people of Pendleton do not like in a mayor
alty candidate :
Pendleton, Ore , Nov 26.
Editor East Oregonian :
Inasmuch as Brother Hodshire presumes to speak for
the Christian people of Pendleton without mentioning any
names in Monday's Tribune it might be well to endorse
that article and continue it by naming some things the
people do not desire in a mayor:
1 Imported gentleman, credentials cloudy.
2 Citizen for revenue only or to qualify for office
holding.
3 Prize fight referee.
4 Choice of saloons and dives.
5 Big bluff expert dodger.
6 Opposed to undivided graft.
7 Anything better than pure water.
8 Rule or ruin.
9 Scuttle old town be vindicated at any price.
10 Revenge is sweet besides there are more towns.
11 Law or lawlessness, which?
12 Enforcement or "SANE" enforcement.
Finally we think that citizenship, long residence,
clean living, business integrity, honesty of purpose, fair
dealing and love for home town should count for more
than Swagger, Bet, Bluff, Challenge and Big Noise.
I have not mentioned any names above but like Brother
Hodshire Everyone who knows me knows I am for Mr.
Montgomery and I think that if he is elected he will be a
good mayor. W W HARRAH.
