Walter Bartholomew Dies.
Walter I. Bartholomew, son of
Mrs. Mary Bartholomew of this city,
Jed at the. Portland Eye, Ear, Nose
and Throat hospital in Portland on
Wednesday, April 12th, following a
short illness of pneumonia. Funeral
services were held in Portland and
the bodv was then shipped to this
city, where at 10 a. m. Sunday morn
ing, at the residence of his mother,
services were held, followed by in
terment in the Masonic cemetery.
Rev. W. O. Livingstone conducted
the services and the funeral was
lareelv attended by relatives and
friends of the deceased.
Walter Ives Bartholomew was
born in Elmwood, Ills., September
29, 1874. the third son of A. G. and
Mary A. Bartholomew, and was aged
47 years, 6 months and 16 days at
the time of his death, April 12, 1922.
Many years of his life were spent in
the stock business in Morrow and
Umatilla counties, and he had but
recently been appointed to a place
in the office of the collector of cus
toms at Portland. He leaves a wife,
George A. White, who has-decided
to become a candidate for the repub
lican nomination for Governor, pre
sents the following platform;
1. Immediate deflation of state
expenditures by cutting at least one
million dollars from the present cost
at the next session of the legislature.
This is vital as the first step in forc
ing a downward trend upon all tax
levying bodies in order to bring re
lief from unnecessary tax burdens.
2. Immediate consolidation of all
existing commissions, boards and
scattered functions of government,
including the Public Service Commis
sion, into not to exceed ten depart
ments all directly accountable to the
governor who in turn is directly re
sponsible to the people for their con
duct. This centralization of admin
istrative responsibility is necessary
in the setting up of a simple, econ
omical and responsible method of
handling the State's business.
3. Immediate, definite, equitable
and certain plan for retiring the
State's present overwhelming bonded
indebtedness. Oppose submitting any
further proposals for bond issues or
appropriations at special elections.
4. immediate insistence upon a
show-down on the Japanese issue in
Oregon. A white man cannot com
pete with a Japanese coolie and we
have got to halt this insidious inva
sion of our lands and industries with
out further delay.
5 My mission as governor will
be to stimulate progress in Oregon
and promote the good name of pop
ular government in our state.
To this end my earnest support
will be given to the relief of our ag
ricultural interests which must find
encouragement through co-operative
marketing and market roads, and to
the development of our industries
and natural resources upon which
the State's material welfare depend.
My earnest support will likewise be
given to the cause of public educa
tion upon which the State's moral
and social welfare depend.
In omitting from my platform a
mass of incidental and supplement
ary issues, I am willing that my stand
and stability on all matters affecting
the moral, social and industrial wel
fare of our state and country shall
be measured by my record as a citi
zen. litUKUfc, A. VVnt I fc.
