Marion Democrats To
Hold County Meeting
A county-wide organizational campaign wn appioved Sun
day by the Marlon county democratic central committee, the
campaign to Include a house-to-house registration drive.
Approximately 80 members of the committee attended the
meeting, held in the Mayflower auditorium, following a pot
lupk dinner.
Luis A. Martine-Lally, county
chairman, explained that plans
for the organization campaign
had already been formulated
and nrovide for meetings In
Mill City. Stayton, Woodburn,
Silverton and Salem within the
next three weeks.
"We expect to have a com
plete slate of candidates for the
the legislature ana ail couniy
offices on the ballot," said the
chairman.
He said that Andy Burk, for
mer sheriff is being urged to
run for county commissioner
and there will be two candi
dates, one a man and one a
woman, for the county record
er's office. The names of the
two were not revealed.
Characterizing the republican
party as "do nothing" party,
William JosBlin, democratic
state chairman, said that elec
tion of democratic candidates
was necessary if the state of
Oregon was to progress.
Credit for the construction of
the present state capitol build
ing was given by Josslin to the
late Governor Charles H. Mar-
tin and the late President
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
"The morning after the old
state house burned," Josslin
said, "President Roosevelt call
ed Gov. Martin and asked what
he could do. The governor fold
him that the state lacked funds
to rebuild and immediately
President Roosevelt ordered the
Public Works administration to
go to the assistance with 40 per
cent of the funds for the new
building."
Construction of the present
postofflce, Josslin said, was the
result of efforts of former Post
master Henry Crawford and the
democratic administration.
"But just walk down a block,"
he added, "and what do we see.
An old, inadequate court house.
I am glad that finally they have
approved plans for a new court
house but it took the republic
ans 12 years to get to planning
for a new building."
Incidentally it cost Josslin 70
cents for designating the re
publican party during the
course of his talk, the mention
of the name being barred by the
county committee.
Josslin said that .the repub
lican officers spent their time
going around the state crown
ing queens and placing wreaths
on cows instead of tackling the
many problems of state.
"I have the highest regard
for Govenor McKay," he said,
"but he fell into the ways of his
standpat party. And we see him
down at Taft crowning a red
headed queen when he should
be In office handling the many
affairs of state."
Josslin told the democrats
that Oregon should provide a
mansion for Hi governor just as
three-fourths of the union have
done.
"Our adjoining state of Idaho
has furnished a governor's man
sion and certainly we can af
ford to do as much as Idaho.
The republican leadership must
take the blame for the lack of a
governor's mansion in Oregon.
Ed Eggen, of Portland, chair
man of the registration commit
tee for the state central commit
tee, urged the Marion county
democrats to enlist the aid of all
organizations in the county for
a non-partisan registration cam
paign.
Others attending from Port
land included Walter J. Dennis,
young democratic national
committeeman; Robert D. Da
vis, president and John M.
Winkler, vice-president of the
young democratic clubs of Oregon.

Power Firm Asks Council
For Non-Exclusive Franchise
Independence The Mountain States Power company Is nego
tiating with the city council for a non-exclusive franchise for
both water and electric service supplied by It for Independence.
The company has submitted by letter a comprehensive plan of
improvement scheduled for completion before next fall.
Improve-"
Outlining of the
ments was set forth at an Infor
mal meeting of company offi
cials and council members in
December. Action on the fran
chise was postponed until the
company could submit the im
provement plan. To date, no ac
tion has been taken on the fran
chise by the council.
The principal requests of the
council were: (1) that the pow
er company provide some means
to assure a continuity of water
service and water pressure
when there may be an electrical
service failure to the end that
there should always be water
under pressure for customer use
and for fire protection; (2) for
the company to investigate the
possible need for some type of
water filter plant; (3) the en
largement and enforcement of
some water mains, particularly
in the area where the Indepen

ing company Is located to as
sure better fire protection; and
(4) The reconditioning of wa
ter mains which were damaged
and partially washed away due
to previous flood conditions;
(5) eliminate the multiple me
ter system so far as possible in
ajectrical service.
The company reported in the
letter to Mayor Spencer that
some of the projects connected
with the water system Improve
ment have already been com
pleted. A new 6-inch water
main near the mill has been
Installed which reduces some of
the fcanrds In the fire protte-
tion problem and also provides
a better service to residents on
Tenth street. Some work was
also don on the Monmouth
street water main which
damaged by the floods.
Installation of 8800 feet of
new water mains In various sec
tions of the city is scheduled for
completion before April 30.
The company plans to recon
struct, reinforce, and enlarge a
number of Its power lines with
in the city, beginning the work
in the spring and finishing by
tan.
One of the most significant
proposals set forth by the power
company concerning the water
system is the construction of an
elevated water storage tank to
be in service not later than
June 30. This would provide
continuous water pressure
throughout the city and elim
inate any future failure of wa-

ter tarrfe even though there
may be at times interruption of
water supply pump operation.
The company pointed out
that new electric schedules
which went into effect in Jan
uary now permit full electrical
service through one meter for
residential service, and in cer
tain instances will make pos
sible the elimination of multiple
meters for commercial services,
This is In accordance with wish
es expressed by citizens at the
December meeting, the com
pany stated.
Since the well which caused
roily water during the late
spring of 1949 has been aban
doned, the company stated that
it did not believe a filter plant
for the water system was ne
cessary. They said that they
now have three proven wells
which are free of foreign mat
ter, and as long as these welli
operate In their present satis
factory condition there should
be no occasion for a filter system.
