MORROW COCJSTY OFFICIAL PAPER Thursday, Fbruary 24, 1916 POUT1CS. The political situation in Morrow county has taken on new life and new form within the past two weetcs ana many candidates are announcing themselves. And singularly enough Up to the present time no two candi dates are seeking the same office. George McDuffee is seeking re-election to the office of sheriff, J. A. Wa ters for clerk and Hanson Hughes has announced his candidacy for county treasurer. This week brings forth the names or S. E. Notson for district attorney and M. L, Case lor coroner. With the exception of Mr. Hughes, democrat, all -other candi dates are slated for the republican ticket. The announcement of S. E. Not Bon for district attorney means there will be an opening for political as pirants to the office of county school superintendent. During the eight years which Mr. Notson has served Morrow county, there has been a remarkable growth in educational work in the state of Oregon, and in many respects, educationally, Oregon now leads the Union. This develop ment necessarily greatly added to the work of the county school superin tendents, and it is quite needless to esv that Mr. Notson has devoted his entire time and attention to the schools of this county. He has placed tho wnrlr rm ft hieh standard which will require tireless effort on th part of his successor to maintain, in una rnnnectinn it mav not be amiss to ctata that thu unuld-be sunerinten dent must have certain qualifications as required by law. An extract irum tho nrcB-nn School Laws on the quali fications of county school superinten dent reads as follows: "No person shall be eligible to the office of county school superintendent who has not, at the time of his elec tion nr nnnnintment. been actively (antra yprl In teaching in the public schools for a period of not less than twenty-seven scnool monies, twelve months nf which shall have been in tho stato nf flreenn: Drovided. that experience as city or county school superintendent shall be construed to be actual teaching experience. He must hold a certificate based upon graduation from a standard normal school, standard university, or a sum fiard rnllpe-e. or be the holder of a life certificate entitling him to teach in all the grades of the public ele mRnptarv arhnnls and the Public high schools of the State of Oregon." T. 1S1K fhan KS. D. 67.) As possible successors to Mr. Not son, the names of S. H. Doak of Lex ington and his brother, L. A. Doak of lone, have been prominently men tioned, as well as Mrs. C W. Shurte, of Heppner. Any of these three are no doubt well qualified to fill the po sition as superintendent of schools. Mrs. Shurte has been connected with the schools of Oregon for many years and is admirably qualified to fill the position with efficiency as well as dig nity. It has been said that she is be ing urged by her many friends to be come a candidate and she may decide to enter tlie race. To the close student of road condi tions, the boneiits that would accrue to the public from adoption of the pa trol system are clearly apparent at alt seasons of the year. Each season has its own peculiar road problems, aud adequate and systematic main tenance helps to solve them all. Just now the patrol system would be of greatest value in keeping up drainage and preventing the destruc tion that results when surface water is diverted from the ditches in which it should be carried off into the road bed where it has no business to be. No doubt every person who travels the roads at this time of the year knows of places where with a few minutes work with a shovel great HnmneA to the roads could be pre- onod But under the present sys tem there is no one whose business it is to do this small amount 01 wors at the right time. Consequently de terioration goes on unchecked and unduly high .costs for reconstruction ao. mada naepssarv. Road taxes are high, and the mon ey that is raised by taxation lacks a great deal of going as iar as u ougm to go, but when the archaic and un- hDace-lil;o method of road main tenance that is in operation at the present time is taken into considera tion, the wonder is that the taxes are nnt ovon hieher. They would be but for the fact that we ao noi get. me vnfirle WO nil eM to have. We make up by self-denial for what we ought to tret v crnnn huslness methods. J Vl If any business man manngeu ma affairs in the way the business of road maintenance is manageu, u would soon find himself in the bank ruptcy court. Take the owner of a for example. If he neglected the vital principle of re pair at the rignt time ana iev uio rtntidln? en tn rack and ruin he would soon find it necessary to re build, and the cost 01 reouuaing won id take all his profits. if tho nn h lie roans were m Dnvaie hands, the patrol system would be adopted without argument or dis cussion. The railroads patrol their tracks incessantly, for they know thev cannot afford to neglect so lm ni-tnt nn inn(iiTiv. But the tre losses that result from lack of proper maintenance of the public roads do not airecuy aueci iiuimc profits. When it oecomes necessary rt Tahnlld a road that has gone to ruin because of neglect it is the pub lic nurse that, slitters, ana so me mu Ti-oate trnefi nn Sooner or later tne puoiic is gums to demand its rights. It is going to insist that the old happy-go-lucky svstem of building a road and then fonrettlncr it until it. has to be re built be abandoned. When that time comes the road patrol system will be adopted without lurtner aeiay, Eugene Register. Great Britain is spending every day. The entire burden of preparedness cost will be met with the income tax under the tentative bills before Con gress.
