ASKS NOMINATION TO
ENTER SHERIFF RACE
H. E. Meads, well known to
the public as “Meads, the speed
cop,” has filed his petition for
the Republican nomination for
sheriff. He has been county
traffic officer and deputy sheriff
for the last three years and re­
signed last week simultaneously
with making the announcement
of his candidacy. During the
paper mill strike, Meads was
placed in charge of the state
police, and during the war he
was put on duty to check up
slackers and deserters. He has
been a terror toautomobile thieves
and speed nvinhcs. His most
recent
activities ^ have been in
•
connection with moonshiners and
bootlegging violations. He was
forentan on construction for the
Willamette Valley Southern rail­
way six years ago. Meads an­
nounces his intention of making
a vigorous campaign. Oregon

SHUEBEL ET AL
ADDRESS MEETING
Last Friday night a bunch of
politicals headed by Chris Schut-
bel drove over from Oregon City
to enlighten our citizens on the
cause of taxes being so high.
Mr. Schuebel has made a study
of the problem and thinks he has
solved it. The reason for hiv» h
taxes is that one third of the val­
ue of taxable property is escap­
ing taxation. F. D. Shank of
Damascus, who is running for
representative spoke on his can­
didacy, improved highways and
good legislation. E. W. Bartlett
then made a forcible and elo­
quent speech for the higher edu­
cational ta x measures. T h e
meeting was held in the Family
Theatre.
