To the Voters of Wasco County: In announcing my candidacy for the of fice of County Sheriff, subject to the Re publican primary election, I desire to state: I have resided in The Dalles the last 20 years, locating here in 1908. I served the O. W. It. & N. railroad in various capaci ties of trust for many years. In September, 1921, I opened the res taurant known as "Mack's Cafe", which has become known far and wide as a good place to eat. I advance my solicitation for your sup port in the coming primaries, pledging that if I am nominated and elected to the office of Sheriff that I will give the people of Wasco County an efficient, courteous and economical administration. I owe no po litical debt to any group or individual, and if elected will carry out my duties without fear or favor. Respectfully submitted for your consid eration, C. W. McMahon r. We have been told that a certain young man student in the Maupin High school who, when disciplined I ffiF Uima irtfrai't !n t.t flia viilim ' v. i.i v .... uvv.i'.i .sa hi iv . 1. 1 1 . n - came so upset that hi invited the teacher into the hall to indulge in fisticuffs. In light of that incident might it not be a good idea to in clude a course in prize fighting in the curriculum of our cchools? x Carl Pratt, our rural carrier on Route A, does not like slippery weather. Monday morning he had hard work negotiating the hill near Lou Kelly's and when he reached the Flat wore himself out keeping his Lizzie in the road. Billy Heckman begun excavat ing for the new bridge to be con structed over the Deschutes at this place. Billy says he will have the structure in shape for travel soon if the authorities will only give him time enough. Those Maupin men who are stock holder in the Clarno Basin Oil com pany arc most optimistic concerning prospect for .triking oil. While the drill 'is down but 170 feet, still it Is going through a strata of blue shale, which i a rea onably sure in dication Hint oil underlies, but at what depth cannot be said. Tygh Valley High school plays and dances always draw good attendance from Maupin. The play given last Saturday night is said to have been of high class and produced in a manner to pica e all. In producting plays it i necessary that competent instruction in dramatics be given and in the; matter of the Tygh plays that instruction was plainly evidenced. The ranchers of Shnniko and An telope have decided they want Gco- Mallatt to represent then on the County board of commissioners. Well, George is a good man, knows the need:) of the county regarding roads and if elected would work to the end that his section be recognized in the fullest measure in the matter of such throughfarcs. After much digging and explosion of dynamite, Nick Karoles has at hist found the bottom of the hole he will use as a rccc poll. 'Jack (Nick's rouran, and side kick, put in many strenous hours excavating lor the pool mid says that between digging and playing pinocle he falls for the card game every time. We wonder why it is that a bunch of youngsters will always destroy property when it is left unoccupied When a rmall house i found vacant that place is unially the rendezvous for th? youthful element and when thoy have decided to seek other fields the house is left usually with out windows. ELEVEN YEARS AGO (From The Times March 30, 1917) N. G.
