THE POLK COUNTY OBSERVER,
EFFfGIENTSERVIGE SURE
MARKED ABILITY OF E.
SMITH IS RECOGNIZED.
M.
Nominated for the Clerkship of Folk
County by Republicans on
His Merits,
"Never was there a man who served
Polk county so ably in the clerkship
as did &d. M. Smith. Everybody
got service and accuracy." This is
A statement by one who knows where
at he speaks. The efficiency of Mr.
ISmith, the republican nominee for
county clerk, is best shown, however,
, oy his selection from arnong the thir
ty-four counties of Oregon by the
(State Insurance Department to pre
pare ana install a system of Uniform
records for all county officers, which
system is now in use. As an expert
accountant he is still m the employ
-of Insurance Commissioner Ferguson,
but this employment will end within
a few weeks, when he will return to
Polk county, the place of his birth.
E. M. Smith is a son of Mr. and
Mrs. Rufus Smith now of Monmouth,
and his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs.
Isaac Smith, were residents of Bridge-
smith;
port. The Smiths are pioneers of
Polk county, being among its very
earliest settlers. "Ed," as he is
familiarly -known throughout this
section of the Willamette Valley, was
born in Independence forty years ago,
but was reared and educated at Mon
mouth, where he graduated from the.
State Normal. After graduating he
taught school in Kings Valley, Bethel,
Independence and in other districts
of the county. In 1902 he was mar
ried to Miss Grace Hargrove, a'80 a
Polk "county teacher, and since 1904
Mr. and Mrs. Smith have resided in
Dallas, where mey nave tneir own
home. They also have a small farm
near Falls City.
Mr. Smith has served Polk county
in the capacity of clerk, and his ad
ministration of the office was one of
efficiency and economy. No less an
authority than secretary or Estate Ben
Oleott pays him the high compliment
or having oeen "tiie Desi
county clerk in Oregon," which re
flects credit upon the judgment of
those people ot Polk who elected him.
Mr. Smith is so well-known through
out this district that further comment
reeardiner his ability is useless. If
service counts for anything he will
be t)he next clerk of Polk county.
ISPEE REFUSES TO PAY TAXES.
Determines to Wait Until Cases in
Court Are Settled.
Polk county will lose $13,528.44 in
taxes this year through the decision
of the Southern Pacific company's
decision not to pay on lands whose
title is now the subject of litigation
in the land grant cases mow pending
in the Federal courts. Although the
Southern Pacific has appealed the de
cision, which was adverse to the com
pany, to the Supreme court, it de
lares its intention of withholding
payment of taxes until the case is
decided. If the land finally is declar
ed the property of the Southern Pa
cific the unpaid taxes will be paid,
with interest. But Polk is only one
of nineteen counties to suffer by the
decision.

tions in Monmouth.

JACKS ' FOUND NECESSARY.
Starbuck Lies Beneath Train While
Workmen Raise Car.
Further particulars concerning the
accident to F. E. Starbuck, who was
injured at Beaverton last week, an
account of which appeared in The
Observer of Friday, reveals the tact
that the unfortunate man lay under
the train for one, hour and a half
while the crew raised the car with
jackksorews. Starbuck 's leg was
caught between the wheels and the
trucks.
The victim, who was a pasesnger on
the train, carried a package to the
baggage car at Beaverton, attempts
ing to swing on the train as it started,
missed his hold and fell beneath the
wheels. His position was such that
the train could not be moved without
crushing him. Starbuck was a for
mer resident of this county, but now
resides at 170 East Sixtty-first street,
Portland. According to last accounts
he was recovering at the Good Samar
itan, hospital.
How Our Girls Kiss.
(Contributed.)
The Independence maiden, so gentle
and sweet,
Lets her lips meet the coming kiss
With rapturous warmth, and the
youthful souls
Float away in the sea of bliss.
The Monmouth girl gets a move on
herself,
As she carefully takes off her hat;
And grabs up the prize in a fright
ened way
Like a terrier shaking a rat.
The Perrydale girl bows her stately
head,
And fixes her pouting lips
In a firm hard way then lets 'em go
In spasmodic little snips.
But oh! the Rickreall girl says never
a word,
As she freezes her face with a smile,
She sticks out her lips like an open
book
And cheweth her wax meanwhile,
The Dallas girl will at first refuse
Just to have you insist and plead;
But when finally she does consent,
Her kiss you'll you confess takes the
lead.
Mrs. Gooch visited her daughter
Bessie in, Salem this week.
