One Year .......... ~......... ~. $1-50 MAY 18 1934 VOTE For the past two years there has been more criticism of state government than the writer has heard before v -Yet on the eve of another election there is little interest in candi dates or policies and the election today is expected to bring out but a small proportion of the voters ‘ This is evidence of a peculiar point of view on the part of - many citizens They are critical without being willing to vote in an effort to change the conditions about which they complain. It is said that it will make no difference who is elected, the results will be the same, as if the entire country was in the hands of some illnatund ogre of government about which nothing can be done. It is the principal tenet of our form of government that a majority of the voters can retire any officer they choose. Under the initiative and referendum they may pass on any measure,. In no country in the world is government so com pletely in the hands of.the people as in the United States and especially in Oregon Ihe voters can control govern ment. But they must vote to do it Voting is-one-of the privileges of citizenship the people have fought for because good government depends on the peorle themselves it is one of the duties of citizens Vote. _-------o------- ROADS In what may now be referred to as the “ good old days county roads in Sherman count} were graded each spring, - the weeds along the road ways were killed off at least bnce and country roads had an appearance of utility-that is not now apparent Wagon wheels are moie apt to rut „the ’ roads than rubber tires but bumps were felt less on the high wheels of those days? f -This-year it is difficult to find many country roads that have received attention from a grader Even the gravelled market roads are “washboardy” in most cases They .rep resent an investment in this county of over half a million * dollars and should be maintained. Farmers who travel dirt roads are entitled to have some work done on them when necessary, as well. It is true that this year has be-n an uncommon one. Roads cannot be worked satisfactorily unless they are damp and they have been dry since early in the spring. The court we believe, was jListified in not working roads during the winter months as winter might have nullified the labor. Still the county is respon^ib.e for ti e weeds that are going to seed in the middle of the roads and for the condition of the roads themselves. It.wi l probably be to the advantage of the county if a road master is appointed whose duty it will be to inspect and care for all ipads of the county No excessive cost need beeniadtd The road master need but report work that should be done to the court and relieve them of the duty of personally inspecting roads Then road money may be ex pended where it will do the most good. ------ O—’— The trouble with the Portland Beavers is that they cause the spectators to chew down the stands- How did Turner happen to find they were poor ball players anyway. -------- O-------- • This waterfront strike is quite a ways frem Shermin county.
