CANDIDATES FOR PUBLIC FAVOR.
Boaiething About Their Qualifications-Their
Biographies an Taken by a
Competent V titer.
poHOSE who are acquainted with the
candidates on the Morrow county repub
lican ticket must concede that the ticket Ib
as strong as probably could have been nomi
nated. Below are presented brief biographies
of each nominee. Every voter is interested in
knowing somewhat of the personal history of
the candidate his party asks him to support
with his ballot, hence it is only just that the
public should be enlightened as to the past in
dividual history of thoHe who may become pub- j
lie servants. I
The term candidate is from the Latin candidu$, I
white, and is as old as republican Koine, where
the aspirant for popular preferment wore, pend
ing his election, the pure white toga, which was
to be emblematic of hig purity of character,
For 2,OUO yearn th highest moral sentiment 01
democratic govern meat has been In harmony
-with this ancient idea of promoting, such, aud
only such citizens to public service, as can
stand the test of a perBoual investigation of
Character.
It is the duty of every loyal citizen to Interest
himself enough In politics to investigate the
qualifications of every candidate he is culled
upon to support with the high prerogative 01
hU ballot. Only by so doing can capable, hon
est aud loyal men be provided for positions ol
public trust. For, be it understood, there are
far higher considerations to be settled in alt
elections than the promotion of this or thai
party ticket, viz., the installation of honest,
faithful otliclalB of popular government, who
will serve the public first aud parties afterward.
However, in our young county, where the pop.
ulatlon Is as yet sparse, and every man 1b known;
where no county ring has thus far sought to id
pose its dictum upon olilcial administration;
where the best affiliations of the party are tht
ones chosen for party otlicials, it is hoped and
expected that the straight ticket will be in
dorsed. This is important, for the reason thai
this is a presidential campaign year, and the
'"J3treu15th- of the republican ticket in Morrow
rniuy needH to be known. Let it be made '
known at the June election.
We take this occasion to say that the
, nominees of the republican county, district and
state UcketB are representative men, qualified to
support the interests of the people through the
respective offices to which they may be chosen.
All of them are well known in the respective
sections to which their names will go for in
dorsement. Many of them have already been
tried in public, office, and their services have
commended them to further trial and promo
tion. The coming June election is important, inas
much as members of congress aud the state
legislature are to be chosen, State senators thh
year will vote upon the election of United State
senators two years hence.
Moreover, this belug a presidontlal campaign
year, every republican voter should deBire to
draw out, before the November election, the
full party Btrength of his ticket, as the attention
of the entire country will soon be turned to
Oregon, as it has been to Khode Island, as e
straw In the current of popular political
opinion.
The republican state victory which Oregon
was able to announce in 1888 had a marked in
fluence upon the national politics of the last
presidential campaign. Like results would
prove equally as telling upon next November's
election. Let every voter in Oregon who expects
to cast his ballot in November for the nominee
of the Minneapolis convention go to the polk
on the 6th of June and lend Btrength to Novem
ber's victory by proclaiming to the nation what
Oregon may be expected to do upon that occa
sion. A republican congressional and state leg
islative majority in June will lend courage and
prestige to the national canvaa.
J. N. BROWN.
Young men of the legal profession, who, from
the time they are admitted to practice, are de
pendent upon their own efforts for a livelihood,
rarely, in their early struggles, come promi
nently before the public, and In Bitch instances
as they do, it is through the devefbpmcnt of un
usual ability In their calling. Such, we are
happy to say, is true of the Bubject of thib
sketch.
J. N. Brown, the republican candidate for
state representative, was born near Mount
Pleasant, Iowa, May 4, 1857. Two years later his
parents moved to Shelby county, Mo., and after
remaining there one year, removed to Sullivan
county, Mo., where the subject of our sketch re
sided until 22 years of age. As a boi , Mr. Brown
received a common school education, and later
took a thorough high Bchool course at Brook
field, Mo. In 1879 he removed to Boise City,
Idaho, where he was variously engaged in min
ing and lumbering, which he followed until
1886, when he resolved to adopt a professional
life, and having chosen the law for his business,
began its study at the Willamette University.
Salem, Or., In 1886. With the completion of hife
law studies, he Immediately chose Heppner ae
the scene for his future activity, and established
his office and practice here.
How successfully, we need scarcely say to
those residing in this and adjacent counties,
into which his business has long since extended.
Mr. Brown soon found it convenient to asso
ciate with him a partner in the law business in
the person of James D. Hamilton, with whom
he still does business.
Besides their law practice, they carry on an
Insurance, real estate, and abstracting business,
as well as managing stock and ranch interests in
the southern part uf the county. Mr. Brown
has some 150 head of cattle on the range and
holds title to 800 acreB of land, besides town
property in Heppner, consisting of his homeand
other investments in. real estate and water
works stock. He has always been a staunch
republican, having had two brothers who did
full service in the Federal ranks in some of the
hottest contested battlcB of the civil war.
In all public enterprises pertaining to the de
velopment of his town and county, Mr. Brown
has taken a leading part, and his name standB
lor all that is enterprising and promotive of the
public good. Personally, Mr. Brown has many
warm IriendB, and as a public officer and legis
lator we know of no one who will more effi
ciently and conservatively represent and pro
mote the Interests of Morrow county and the
state of Oregon.
ANDREW ROOD.
We have space In theBe short sketches for lit
tle more than the briefest details of the lives of
the respective candidates.
Andrew Rood was born in Wisconsin in 1843,
Where he lived until the outbreak of the civil
war, when he enlisted in Company H of the
' Third Regular Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry,
and served three years and a half.
In 1867 he went to Idaho, where he remained
five years, and in 1872 moved to Washington
county, Or., living there two years, when he re
moved to Walla Walla, Wash. ; here he remained
a year, when he concluded to engage in the
stock business, and came to Morrow county,
where he has resided since 1874. He was a suc
cessful sheep ratser for sixteen years, going out
of the business two years ago.
At present he is interested in horses and farm
ing, though practically retired from active
business.
Mr. Hood acted as one of the first commis
sioners of Morrow county, having served a term
Df two years.
The man who loves Justice aud his country
well enough to fight for them must certainly
regard equity between man and man with suf
ficient candor to administer it with impartial
decision, ho principle is more firmly fixed In
the working doctrines o the republican party
ban respect always, fcnd honor, frhen potble,
to th man who were loyal and nt'wdttsh
enough to say:
" i h county that haft mad me free,
iier ireeUum's dearest unto nnr."
Mere am i; use m for your glory and. preser
vation. Such loyalty seldom seeks recognition, but de
serves all the consideration that free meu, pro
tected in their individual rights, can bestow.
Whether or not the republican county convex
tiou knew It was nominating an old veteran of
the volunteer infantry to serve them as judge,
we have thought it of sufficient Importance to
allude to it here.
T. C AUBREY,
The republican nominee for county clerk, is
doubtiesB as well kuown as any man in Morrow
county. Mr. Aubrey was born in Chester county, Pa.,
In lb59. HIb parents moved to Indiana when he
was 2 years old. Here he remained until ma
ture manhood, pursuing a thorough course oi
public instruction, extending from the primary
schools to a completion of the high school
course. At the age of 16 he began teaching, aud
with few interruptions has followed this voca
tion ever since, having by thorough preparation
and devoted attention to the teachers' progres
sive art, made of his calling a profession.
In 1880 Mr. Aubrey removed to San Jose, Cal.,
the Garden City of the beautiful Santa Clara
valley. Here he attended the California State
Normal School two aud a half years, thus add.
ing the best normal course of instruction to be
obtained in the West to the efficiency of the
thorough high school advantages he had en
joyed iu the Kant. After teaching three yearB in
California, Prof. Aubrey came to Oregon, in
iss;, and has continued, without interruption
his school work here. W ith his identiheatiou
with educational work In Morrow county, most
of its citlzeus are lamlliar; the positions he has
dlled are evidence of his ability aud the con
fidence reposed iu him. his voice and influ
ence have always been used to further and pro
mote the public school system iu all of its de
partments, and the liberalizing tendency of his
education has stamped the mark of public en
terprise upon all his relations to Bociety.
not. Auurey is a mau of positive couvlctionB,
enthusiastic in his espousal of whatever he con
siders either public or individual good, ab an
omcer in public trust, those who know him best
can have no misgivings as to his uuparusau
-deliiy to the public welfare. ,
N. R. M'VAY,
tVho enjoys the distinction of being a "Buckeye''
oy birth, which in political circles has come to
mean the open sesame to oilicial success, was
uorn iii Washington county, uhio, in I860, be
is consequently liu years of age, and is posBesseu
ji that lull share of liie vigor aud abounding
good spirits which go so far toward winning
place for meu, aud which, for lack of better
term, may be called personal magnetism. Mr.
AicVay received his education and grew toman
hood before leaving Ohio, emigrating to Kansas 1
when he was tl years of age. After a year epent 1
Lhere he removed to Montana, where he resided
two years; from thence he came direct to Uma
tilla county, In 18811, and after prospecting this
region thoroughly, he chose him 3'JO acres of
land at Gooseberry, where he has since resided,
believing it as favored a locality as the country
possesses. The success that has attended his
systematic farming proves his judgmentcorrect.
We have seen no better Indications of thrift
throughout Morrow county than his farm
shows. As a record for nine years of grain
growing on his farm, he reports never to have
had less than 20 bushels of wheat to the acre,
except one year, when the yield was 12 bushels.
Last year's crop averaged over 40 bushels. Mr,
McVay has faith in the country and plenty ol
reasons for hfs faith. Belug too modest to say
much about hiniBclf (a cardinal virtue), the
man with pencil, taking notes, had no difficulty
in catching the tone of popular sentiment, as to
his business enterprise, and the trend he has
sought to lend to progressive ideas in his com
munity. His success has been achieved by intelligent
forethought, business economy, industry and
integrity, and theBe qualities have been so thor
oughly appreciated by his fellow-citizens as to
merit their indorsement of him for the public
trust to which he is now named. Bhouid he re
ceive the support to which he is entitled iu the
full strength of his ticket in Morrow county, he
will be elected by a handsome majority.
The office of Bheriil is an important one, de
manding careful attention, prompt executive
action and a familiarity with the executive por
tion of Btate laws pertaining to county govern
ment. Tbe -herlfl' likewise needs to be a Bafe
and competent financier, as at present the col
lection of taxes is committed solely to his care.
Mr. McVay's nomination for the above office
means that his fcllow-citizeiiB have indorsed
these sentiments. He has never heretofore in
terested himself in politics, wisely choosing to
let the office Beek him, which it did in the last
convention. If elected, as now seems probable
he will administer the office in the same careful
.nanner, and with the economy he has applied
iO his own personal affairs.
WALLACE W. SMEAD, .
The nominee for assessor, haB been identified
with the business Interests of Morrow county
for more than eleven years. Born in Benton
Co. Mo., in 1857, while yet an infant his parents
removed to New York btate, aud later to Illinois
and Montana. In 1867 they came to Oregon and
chose for themselves a home among the beauti
ful Eola Hills of Polk Co., in the Willamette
Valley. Here Mr. Smead passed his boyhood
days, attending the public schoolB and receiving
a common school, btiBluesB education. After
growing to manhood, he located and lived for
live years upon a farm in the famous Alsea Val
ley, in Benton Co., Oregon, where he tells ub he
passed the most enjoyable portion of his life,
ttut the mining fever took possession of him,
and he chose to cast his fortunes for five years
amid the argentine riches of Nevada, lhere he
remained for five years, in the most responsible
position connected with quartz mining, aB man
aycr of an amalgamating mill, where thousands
of dollars were daily dependent upon his faith
ful performance of duty. Mr. Smead left Nevada
in the fall of '80 and came to Morrow Co., settling
at Wells Springs, where he pursued, with varied
success, for three years, the fortunes of a bunch
grass farmer.
He still owns some 320 acres of deeded land,
, but has found iu the meantime, other business
chances that yield bet. er returns than farming,
so that for the past seven years he haB been a
trusted employe of the Monow County l,nd &
Trust Company.
During this time he has served them as wool
buyer, inspector aud grader, making himself so
useful in hfs various relations with their busi
ness aud by his faithful service, that he cannot
now well be dispensed with, during the buying
season.
Mr. Smead has had unusual facilities for ac
quainting himself with this county and the
farming communities, having traveled every
township of the county repeatedly. This
knowledge 1b of the utmost importance to an
assessor, not only in finding the people expedi
tiously, but in knowing enough about their in
dividual standing to secure an honest assess
ment of their property. The development of
this county demands that every free-holder shall
pay bis just apportionment of tax, and every
dollar of taxable property should be assessed.
Mr. Smead is a warm-hearted, genial gentle
man, thoroughly public-spirited, and zealous in
every enterprise promotive of the advancement
of Morrow County.
D. N. HARDMAN,
The long term candidate for county commission
er, is one of the best-known residents of Morrow
County, having been a pioneer settler here. He
was born at bouth Bend, Indiana, in 1838, cross
ed the plains In '50, locating at Albany, Linn
( ounty, this State, where he lived till 1809. En
gaged "in farming when he removed to Walla
Walla Countv, Washington, residing there until
1878. In the latter year he came to Dairy Ridge, j
where he has made his home ever since. Select-
ing a half section of laud, he engaged In farming i
until he was appointed postmaster, in which I
capacity he served for nine years. The town of
Hardman was named after him, and though
designated by several other coguomens, Mr. ;
Hardman will doubtless always lather the name
of the town. By this distinction, and his long
services as pustmaster, as well a being engaged
in the mercantile business, Mr. Hardman has
become known throughout this, and adjacent
counties, and has lived here long enough to see j
Morrow County grow from an open buach-grass
sMJtfy, to 4 prusiorj, MUleS onuy ol
feuoi xaxma.
tie has lung bcou famliUr with tho county's
Interests and most apparent neads, and will
know to a surety what course to pursue when
called upon to administer in county a Hairs, He
is a member iu high standing with the I. O. O.
k, and has always commanded aud retained
the confidence and respect of bil fellow towns
men, and a broad circle of acquaintances, who
most heartily indorse his nomination, aud will
give blm their unqualified support at the polls.
W. J. LEKZiK.
There are few business men better or more fa
vorably kuown throughout Morrow County,
than W. J. Leezer, the republican nominee for
county treasurer. He has been a resident of
what is now Morrow County for twenty-one
years. Always a firm believer in Eastern Ore
gon's resources, he has lent his influence to
every enterprise promotive of the. public good,
and aB a loyal, faithful citizen has been highly
instrumental iu developing ihe new country.
Mr. Leezer Is a native of the "Prairie Mate,"
having been born at Kushville, BchuylerCounty
111., in 1846. Here he lived and received a com
mon school education, until the age of seven
teen, when, equipped with a practical under
standing of the fundamental English branches,
he believed his next duty was to tit himself for
the practical utilities of Life, and with this end
in view he learned the tinner's trade and work
ed for five years at that business. When twenty-
live years of age he set out to cross the plains, in
1871 , and upon reaching Oregon, located at U ina
tilla Lauding, where his brother, J. M. Leezer,
was then doing a tin and hardware business.
After working In partnership with his brother
for a year, Mr. Leezer bought out the entire bus
iness, and conducted It himself for eight years.
Iu lo7y he sold back his interests at Umatilla to
his brother aud came to Heppner iu the spring
of 'to. Here he established himself at his well-
kuown staud on the comer of Main and Willow
streets, where he built hiB two story warerooms
aud stocked them with a full line of stoves, tin
and hardware. He maintained his mercantile
business until last June, when he sold out to
Air. K C. Thompson, preparatory to engaging in
.he hotel business, w bicn he has since done,
Having newly remoueied, refurnished and in
every way renovaied the old City Hotel, which
is now justly termed the "new City Hotel.
Mr. Leezer was appointed treasurer of Morrow
County iu lbb5, by Gov. Moody' aud served a
lull term, aud has since served three consecu
tive terms as city treasurer of Heppner.
Mr. Leezer is amemberol the Masonic fratern
ity; is one of those kindly-hearted gentlemen
who loves his neighbors and respects every
body's rightB, and ia respected by all his fellow
citizens in return.
He received his nomination without solicita
tion oi his part, and consented to accept the
office if chosen, as any loyal believer in popular
government should, when called by the common
wish of his party,
Mr. Leezer has always been a staunch repub
lican iu national politics, but has been liberal
enough to support men and not parties in muni
cipal and petty elections.
He and his competitor, Mr. Matlock, have long
been friends and neighbors, and each would
doubtless sorely regret anything that might be
said during the canvaB that would mar the cor
dial relations that have so long existed. Mr.
Leezer rightly esteems friendship greater than
office, and should he be chosen to this place of
trust, we beBpeaK for him the confidence and
Integrity of trust his paBt services to the public
warrant them bestowing. The finances of the
country surely could not be entrusted to more
conservative management,
WILLIAM L. BALING,
The renomince for Superintendent of Schools,
was bom June 27, 1866, in Walla Walla County,
Wash. His father was one of the earliest pio
neer eettlers of that section, having located there !
in the 'ftO's. During the "hard" winter of '61
and '62 he lost all hie stock, which constituted
all his wealth at t hat time. The following spring
he returned to the Willamette Valley, wh. re he
remained until 1864, when he again returned to
the Walla Walla Valley, this time aB a farmer.
In 1886 he sold hit farm there and came to Mor
row County.
Will, at the age of ten years, had the mis for"
tune to be injured by a runaway team, which
made him a cripple for life. He attended the
public schools until the age of fifteen, when he
entered Whitman Cc liege. With hard labor,
aided by a naturally clear mind, he passed the
entire two years' preparatory course, in one year.
He then entered the scientific course, which
would have given him the degree of B. S., but
lacked one year of completing the work in that
department. During the last year of his collegi
life he taught Latin and Geometry in the prepar
atory course.
Mr. Sa ing came to Morrow County in 1886,
where he engaged in teaching and school work,
which he has followed until tne present time.
In 18D0 he was elected (Superintendent of Schools,
which position he is now filling. He is ihe only
man elected to this oflice in the county, that has
laid aside all other business and devotes his en
tire attention to the wo k. DuriDtr the past two
years, the educational interests of Morrow Co.,
under his management, have been steadily ad
vancing. Mr. Haling is pre-eminently a worker. He has
organizing and executive ability, and his efforts
in bohalf of progroHttive education are known
aud appreciated throughout the county. He haB
made county institute work a feature of the
teacher s growth, and this of itself has been a
strong impetus to advanced methods of teach in if.
Mr. Baling brings to hiM office the ripe experi
ence of a practical teacher, equipped with mod
ern ideas, so much needed to counteract the
Houthy io nrevalent in the country schools.
Having been in touch with school work continu
ally for years, he is posted in method, and his
urm of superintendence has qualified him for
more successiui woriE in the iuiure.
