But none of them is a resident of the eastern part of Clackamas county, and it is only fair that Eastern Clackamas should be represented by one who is resident in it. Two or three weeks ago, men tion was made that Edward Shearer of Springwater. had been approached on the subject, but was then undecided, he now de clares his willingness to run. The N ews is heartily in favor of his so doing, and considers that no better selection can be made. He is a man of sterling worth, and respected wherever he is known. He has acquired dis tinction as a poultry expert, hav ing been judge and superinten dent of the poultry exhibit at the state fair for a number of years. He was born in 1869, coming to Oregon in 1890 and to this coun ty in 1910. At first he was resi dent in Garfield, but about four years ago he moved to Spring- water. Mr. Shearer states as his platform: Economy in all departments of state affairs; fewer iaws passed with a more thorough under standing and enforcement of the laws now on our statute books, will be part of my platform. Never in the history of our country has knowledge acquired from years of practical, intelli gent applieatinn to the varied ag ricultural interests done more to befit the farmer as an essential counselor in the affairs of state than the present. To my mind the vocation that affords the broadest scope of the needs of the whole people is that of the farmer. Thus if I am elected as repre sentative of the people of this county, I will represent the whole people to the best of rtiy ability, ever bearing in mind the Golden Rule and with due regard and respect for my oath of office.
