Telegrama and letter from many
prominent Republicans were read at
the annual Lincoln day banquet
here Monday evening. Among the
greetings were the following:
"Multnomah county Republicans
gathered at the nineteenth annual
Lincoln day banquet In Portland con
vey to Jackson county Republicans
their moat cordial greetings. The
spirit of Lincoln still lives In the
hearts of our people and the coun
try will again return to sound Re
publican principles for which be
tood. LAMAR TOOZE,
"Chairman Lincoln Day Banquet
Committee.
"Portland, Ore."
"Sorry X cannot take part In your
Lincoln day banquet as It would be
a source of real happiness. Sincere
greetings to my fellow Republicans.
"SENATOR CHAS. L. McNARY.
"Washington, D. C."
"Sincerely regret X am unable to
be present tonight and Join with you
In honoring the memory of Abraham
Lincoln. Xn one of the great critical
periods of our nation's history, Lin
coln strove to save the constitution
and the rights guaranteed under it.
In these days when the constitution
is being lightly cast aside we should
turn to the teaching of the Great
Emancipator. We will honor his
memory by rededlcatlng ourselves to
the preservation or the constitution
al rights distinguishing American
cltlzenahlp.
"SENATOR FREDERICK STEIWER.
"Washington, D. C."
"Thank you for your letter of Feb
ruary 1 Inviting me to attend the
LIncom day banquet which will be
held in Med ford on Monday evening.
February 13.
"I regret that I already have an
engagement for that evening and for
this reason will not be able to be
with you.
"X assure you. however, I appre
elate your courtesy in extending the
Invitation.
7 "GOVERNOR J. L. MEIER,
"Salem, Ore."
"I congratulate your club and the
Republicans of Jackson county on
your observance of the anniversary of
our party's greatest leader and the
nation's greatest msn.
"I think well for us to pause a mo
ment on an occasion like this to
remind ourselves that the party of
Lincoln still stands for certain urln
clplea which are as fundamental now
as they were when first announced
by our immortal leader, and that
these principles are not to be sur
rendered or Ignored even In the
present grave emergency,
"The Republican party Is still the
party which Lincoln founded, and Its
basic Ideals are still his ideals. The
Republican party still stands for con
stitutional, parliamentary govern
ment. We still believe in govern
ment by law and not by men.
:"We are still of the opinion tfiat
It Is the duty of the legislative
branch of the government to make
law and that congress has no author
ity, under the constitution, to sur
render Its Jurisdiction In this field
to the executive branch of the gov
ernment. ."In our sincere desire to aid In
the recovery, we have, nevertheless,
heeded these fundamental principles i
and we have also tried to prevent
a' sometimes ruthless majority from
attempting to destroy them. In this
we have at least partly succeeded.
' "The minority party In congress is
fulfilling Its moral and legal duties
as such, and that It la functioning ;
effectively, smalt though Its num
bers are. It has opposed whatever
bed legislation the majority party
has offered with the as me vigor that
It has supported the good. This has
often required no little courage In
the face of a temporarily blinded
adverse public opinion.
"The Republican party la doing
Its full share In bringing about the
recovery of our country. It Is doing
this In a manner so unnelfla-h snd
patriotic that It has gained the re
spect and the confidence of the peo
ple everywhere. And when the battle
shall have been won and the history
of thta struggle written, the party
of Lincoln will -have no came to be
ashsmed of the part It has played.
"Very cordially yours,
"JAMES W. MOTT.

DECL
The audit of the county books, for
the last six months or 1933, prepared
by A. R. Hoe t ling, accountant, was
submitted to the county court today,
It is largely devoted to figures shov
ing amounts expended, amounts on
hand in various county funds, and
recapitulations. The audit states "the
funds of the county nave been effic
iently and economically administered"
for the period from the submission
of the report of C. H. Haines, auditor,
last July, until Decemt;r 31 last.
The Haines report was for a three-
year period.
Auditor Hoetllng recommends that
a monthly audit be taken, so that
the county court will have & cumula
tive audit, and recommends changes
In the present system of bookkeeping
The report holds that errors foifnd
are "minor."
It Is further recommended that the
"county engineer set up a schedule
of depreciation, for the value of ma
chinery." and that "each road dis
trict receiving the benefit be assess
ed for the use of the machinery in
the Machinery Depreciation fund.' It
Is also proposed that rental money
for county machinery from outside
agencies be placed In the fund. The
report holds the plan would provide
a fund for the protection of the cap
ital outlay,'
The report sets forth that the def
icit in the general fund "can be
traced to one of four causes." The
ca ue are listed as: "Failure of the
1932 budget committee to provide
sufficient funds, the expenditure of
thousands of dollars In unusual trials
and procedure, the heavy cost of re
lief moves, and the emergency situa
tion that prevailed In the early part
of last year."
It Is also noted that Earl H. Fehl.
now serving a four-year sentence In
state prison for ballot theft convic
tion has a month's salary, amounting
to 131.77, due, and that Gordon L.
Schermerhorn, former sheriff, also nas
salary for the same period due.
