A Heavy Agenda Now that the elections are over it is business as usual for most of us. All of us, that is, but those elected to various and sundry offices across the land. Bill Clinton has a heavy agenda ahead and appears to have jumped right into it, with much gusto. Wes Cooley and Gordon Smith were barely able to catch their breaths before finding themselves in the midst of their heavy agendas. The new Morrow County Court By Ed Glenn has a heavy agenda too. The prevail ing record of making us less divided than six years ago will take on some new emphasis in the next six. But the heaviest agenda for the next term will be Home Rule. Home Rule is very simple: some form of government that's different from that provided by state law. Just how different is up to the local folks. Home Rule is not an automatic thing, it depends on just exactly how the local proposed change is structured Usually that involves two things-first, having the county court ap point a number of county officials rather than have the voters elect them. That usually includes the clerk, treasurer, assessor, surveyor and sometimes the sheriff. The idea is that if the county court appoints those people, then they will be people who are competent in their jobs rather than just politically popular. There’s also the idea that some of those departments can be consolidated and operated more efficiently. Umatilla County just adopted a Home Rule charter that allows their county commission to appoint their clerk, treasurer, assessor and surveyor. Their sheriff will continue to be elected. The second major change usually sought by a Home Rule charter is change in the county court itself. Presently, the county is governed by two commissioners and a county judge. Besides being the chair man of the county court, the judge also has juvenile court jurisdiction All three are paid officials, the commissioners half-time at $19,000 and the judge full-time at $38,000. Our new county commissioner proposes to change that to a five- member commission elected from zones around the county. That’s just the kind of plan Gilliam County turned down last week and a mighty heavy agenda. The idea of a Home Rule charter with one or more of these changes in the form of government has been kicking around for a lot of years. Actually the legislation that allows Home Rule charters was adopted in 1958 and Umatilla County becomes only the ninth county to take advantage of the flexibility it affords. As I see it. Home Rule charters make a lot of good sense. For years I’ve been cool to the idea, if not actually opposed. Now, however, it seems the time has come. Consolidation of the various county depart ments under a single administrative head who answers to a five-member jolicy board appears to be an efficient, responsive way to run county government. The five commissioner idea seems to mirror the five commissioners for the Port of Morrow. A plan which provides every community representation and the county-wide port district a well balanced yet responsive governing body. That commission should also zone their directors to assure that same broad representation in the future. The school board already has a form of zoned representation with five of seven board members elected from the former school districts. That system works so well it should be the model for both the port and the county. As the county grows and the population continues to shift, it would be wise to build in to school, port and county government some assurance that a bare majority of voters will not be able to entirely deprive one area of the county of representation on any one of these important governing bodies. Zoning will make a lot of sense as the county's population continues to shift. Our new county commissioner is on the right track with this Home Rule thing and deserve our support.

Mair Sulcralfate (Carafate) is a widely used ulcer medicine that reacts with stomach acid, follow ing oral administration, to form a paste-like substance that binds with ulcer tissue in the stomach and small intestine. The binding of sulcralfate to ulcer tissue forms an insoluble complex that acts as a mechanical barrier between the ulcer and other substances. The complex protects the ulcer from the action of stomach acid, pepsin, and bile, allowing the ulcer to heal. In addition to promoting the heal ing of ulcers, sulcralfate has been used to protect the stomach from the corrosive effects of medicines such as aspirin and the oral antiinflammatory medicines. One of the undesirable effects of sulcralfate is its potential inter action with several othermedicines. The American Hospital Formu lary Service indicates that sulcralfate has been shown to bind or interact with tetracycline, cimetadine, digoxm. phenytoin, theophylline, and ranitidine. Ac cording to a recent issue of Annals o f Internal Medicine, sulcralfate also interacts with levothyroxine, a medicine used to treat hypo thyroidism (a low thyroid hormone condition). These interactions can result in decreased oral absorption of the other medicines and a drop in medicine blood levels. In order to prevent such interactions, it has been suggested that sulcralfate tablets be taken two hours before or after the other medicines. by City of Heppner Nov. 3 - 9, 1992 High Low Free R ain Tues. 53 36 .22 Weds. 57 35 .05 Thurs. 54 35 .0 Fri. 58 36 .10 Sat. 52 41 .13 Sun. 47 34 .03 Mon. 44 30 .0 Ad Sponsored By Morrow County Grain Growers Court Street Market 111 N.
