Letters to the Editor
Sherer deserves your vote
To the Editor:
I believe an individual that
has a record of doing one of the
best jobs possible in supporting
what was good and profitable
for Morrow County deserves
your vote.
I worked with Margo Sherer
over the years and know she
has always kept first and fore
most what was best for the
Morrow County taxpayers. She
has done her job in the past
with your best interest being
her first consideration. She has
the knowledge and the back
ground to continue to represent
Morrow County in a profes
sional and profitable manner.
Your vote for Margo Sherer
will help to assure that our
county treasurer's office con
tinues to run efficiently and be
beneficial to all.

Re-elect Sherer
To the Editor:
I would like to encourage the
people of Morrow County to
mark their ballot on November
5 to re-elect Margo Sherer as
Morrow County Treasurer. I
have known and worked close
ly with Margo in Soroptimist
International, a business wo
men's service organization well
known in our community for 48
years. Also having served to
gether in the offices of our club,
we've worked closely over the
years. Margo is highly accom
plished as treasurer for our
county and SIA, now serving
Far from fair
To the Editor:
Let's not be caught sitting on
the fence. Now is the time to let
our urban friends and family
know that Measure 38 is des
tructive. It will destroy existing
cooperative efforts and height
en the level of conflict between
urban and rural interests.
The environmental groups
sponsoring this initiative were
clever in appealing this mea-
III
her sixth term as treasurer of
the club. She knows her job
well, is asked to advise on
financial decisions and is one of
the most organized persons I
have known.
I feel re-electing Margo to this
position is a continued asset to
our county government. Mr.
Jim Kinzer from Salem ap
parently does not personally
know Margo because her situa
tion in that matter has not one
thing to do with electing this
well-qualified lady.
(s) Judie Laughlin
Soroptimist of Heppner pres.
sure to an ignorant voter. The
ballot title is misleading and the
proposed law drafted in a man
ner that leads voters to think it
is fair and reasonable. It is far
from fair; it is extreme.
Don't sit back and let your
fellow voters be mislead. I hope
you will urge others to vote no
on Ballot Measure 38.
Sincerely,

To the Editor:
John Wenholz is our best
choice for Morrow County
Commissioner. John is a self-
made business man who has
the time and devotion to spend
making Morrow County a bet
ter place. John has no ax to
grind; he is connected to no
"group” and has no hidden
agendas. When you talk to
John, you may not always
agree with him, but you will
know two things. First, he is
not a politician who tells you
what he thinks you want to
hear; he will tell you as he sees
it.
Second, while he may not
agree, he will listen to what you
have to say and will think about
it. Consequently, while John is
definitely not wishy-washy, I
have seen him change his mind
when presented with good,
solid evidence. What more
could we ask for? John Wen
holz deserves our votes for
county commissioner.

MORROW CO. TREASURER
Wenholz well suited
To the Editor:
John Wenholz, a candidate
for Morrow County Commis
sioner, has a background in
business, construction and
agriculture, and is well suited
to provide leadership for all
areas of the county.
I have had the opportunity to
work with John on various
committees and have observed
his involvement in numerous
community activities over the
past twenty years. During that
time, he has shown he has the
qualities necessary to make an
excellent commissioner. He
possesses good common sense
and intelligence, is capable of
making sound decisions, treats
others with fairness and hones
ty and is a good listener. These
attributes, along with his dedi
cation to public service, qualify
him as an excellent choice for
county commissioner.
John Wenholz has earned by
vote for Morrow County Com
missioner.
Sincerely,
