How Clearly
Do I See?
A commentary column such 11
this aim* at tome goal or another
Some seek to evoke critical thought
Some seek to inform, some per
suade. some to adviic or counsel.
Some column* are funny Other*
are venous some appear to have no
goal or aim at all. All columns, to
some extent or another, are written
to salve the ego of the writer.
I don't know how this one will
(urn out It will he all of the above.
I'm afraid.
What I do hope to do though, is
touch upon some of (he political and
social issues of (he County, maybe some that have been untouchable
In so doing. I hope lo inform, persuade, counsel and sometimes be fun
ny. Most importantly. I hope this experience will be rewarding for you
as well as for me.
You’ll detect some themes as we go along First. I don’t think we are
so big and important that we can squander our energy fighting amongst
ourselves You'll find me conciliatory on issues that might divide the
county.
Secondly, I do think we arc big and strong enough to fight for a place
in the big picture, so you'll find me belligerent toward Salem, Washington
D C., and even, sometimes, toward the rest of Eastern Oregon
I like people and I'll write about them. You may even see my by-line
elsewhere in these pages, if I write good enough, maybe even a photo
or two someday
Don't he surprised i f ! stir up a little controversy once in a while My
infamy in that regard will be measured by your letters letters to the
Editor will get printed, letters to me. care of my Editor, will he ap
preciated. and may in some small way direct the tenor of this column
I see this as a great journey, with a sincere hope that you all come
along We may end up at a better place, hut the aim is to enjoy the trip
