Newspaper Page Text8 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Tuesday, October 21, 1958 Candidate Parade (Editor's note: This is en of a. series of articles con cerning candidates for state, federal and county office, up for election at the November general election. They were prepared by the candidates themselves, or on their behalf, at the invitation of the Mail Tribune.) rV'Cviw WW! v- i EARL M. MILLER (Republican Candidate for County Judge) In this great country of ours, I believe the two party system has proved' over the years to "be the best form of selecting and electing public officials. I am also very strong in my belief, that after a can didate is elected, the adminis tration of that office should be on a non-partisan basis for the benefit of all people regard less of their political philoso phy. This, I would like to em phasize, is of great importance particularly in local govern ment administration because all citizens live close to, and with, their local officials. Good public relations is a must in the administration of this office. The county court belongs to the people of Jack son county, and their needs should receive prompt consid eration. The office of county judge which I am seeking on Nov. 4 Is an important one. As a member of a three man board, all business affairs of Jackson county must be acted upon and administered for the best interests of all citizens and sections of the county, with out favoritism to any one, any group, or any section.' I am interested in good gov ernment and I believe that it is the responsibility of all men and women to work for good progressive government. Because the office of coun ty judge carries such great responsibilities I believe that previous experienSe in both municipal government and business is of great import ance for a good sound admin istration. Having had the priv ilege of serving my communi ty in local government nine years and operating a business in the county for 27 years, I feel that I am qualified as a candidate for this office. As a resident of Jackson county for 33 years, I believe that I am familiar with most county af fairs. Jackson county is growing and the potential in the future will be greater, in my opin ion, if we work together pro gressively and faithfully. The population growth to some 70,000 is proof of their belief in the future of this area. It is important that all elected officials of the county be in harmony and at all times rec ognize any issue that would benefit the economy and wel fare of the people in . the county. I believe it unfair for a can didate to make political prom ises to any person, group, or section of the county. My only commitment is to the people of Jackson county as a whole if elected county judge. I will do everything in my power to administer this office for the benefit of all people in Jack son county with fairness and courtesy to everyone. It is customary for candi dates for any office to have a committee to work in their behalf. My committee of friends and acquaintances from many sections, of the county contains farmers, or chardists, business and profes sional men. I have no com mitments to any one of them, or group of them -only my thanks for the faith they have in me. Elephant Appears At Bar For Drink Chesterfield, England-(CPD-That was no pink elephant in the bar at the Portland hotel. That was a lli-ton, eight-year-old Burmese elephant.' She walked into the bar, sat down at a table and drank a pint of beer. She loves beer," said train er Gosta Kruse. "She often has it at the circus." Kruse said it was the first time he had ever taken the elephant into a public house. It was not known how many bar customers swore off drinking. SWISS AUTHOR DIES Neuchatel, Switzerland-(UPD -Prof. Charly Clerc, 76, noted Swiss author and poet, died Monday at his Pres-sur-Enges vacation home. i SCOTT HAMILTON (Democratic Candidate for County Judge) Scott Hamilton of Central Point has 22 years of active farming and fruitgrowing, and active participation in comma nity affairs, including Grange and church activity, to qualify him for the position of county judge of Jackson ' county. Hamilton is closely acquaint ed with the problems of Jack son county, and believes firm ly that the county court, as administrative body of the county, should keep abreast of the times and should pro vide the county" with progres sive, not regressive, adminis tration. Hamilton is 50 years old, and has lived in Jackson coun ty for 48 of his 50 years. He was graduated from Central Point High school, and attend ed Oregon State college be fore becoming a fruitgrower The Hamiltons have six chil dren, four of whom are at home and attending school at Central Point. Two are mar ried and living in Jackson county. Hamilton has been a Granger for 15 years, and the Hamiltons attend St. Mark's Episcopal church. Hamilton is a firm believer that county government should be as efficient and as progressive as city govern ment, and he "believes that no one part of the county should be given more attention by the county court than any other part. He feels that no one group should dictate poli cies of the county, and there fore has repeatedly taken the stand that county government should be bi-partisan, and that appointments to county posi tions should be based entirely on qualification and ability, and not on political back ground. "The cities of the county are part of the county,' of course, "Hamitlon has said, "but the cities all have their own governing bodies, and are well able to take care of themselves. The duty of the administrative body of the county, which is the county court, is to take care of coun ty government, and it should spend full time doing it." Hamilton believes that all elements of the county, indus trial, agricultural, horticul tural and social, are vastly important in their own rights, and each should be considered as an important part of the economy of the county. ' If Hamilton is elected coun ty judge, the interests of the county as a whole will be held on an equality with oth er interests, and no one group will be favored over another. Welfare of the people of the county will be his first and only consideration.

Television Reviewer FeSt Placed on Spot by 'The Case for By WILLIAM EWALD UPI Correspondent New York-IUPD-Dear Boss: I really feel TV put me in a squeeze Monday night with "The Case for Dr. Mudd" on C B S - T V's "Desilu Play house." It was all about this Maryland doc tor named Sam Mudd who helped out John William Ewald Wilkes Booth after Bootn had shot Lincoln and how the North put Mudd in jail and really treated him bad. Now, I figure it like this: If I say the show was bad, the whole South will be mad at me. If I say the show was good, the whole North will be mad at me. And if I don't say anything at all, Desi and Lucy-or is it Desy and Luci? will be mad at me. He Splits It Well, I'll chicken out and split it this way: The good side: Lew Ayres and Mary Anderson as Dr. and Mrs. Mudd were quite satisfactory and the acting of James Westerfield as Mudd's lawyer was better than sat isfactory. Some of the scenes -such as the one in which Mudd was tried and the law flouted-were mildly gripping. The bad side: The whole production had the skimpy air of a cheap movie, a kind of let's get on with it we ve got a lot of ground to cover atmosphere. Also Mudd, as a person, was never expiorea satisfactorily - we learned nothing, for example, about Mudd, the proprietor of 500 acres who had once owned 11 slaves. Okay, that's as far as I'll go. .North ana soutn, you now RED OFFICIALS KILLED - Berlin-OJPD-Five high-ranking officials of the East Ger man Communist youth organ ization FDJ were among the 65 persons killed in the crash of the Soviet TU104 jet air liner between Peiping and Moscow last Friday, the East German news agency ADN reported Monday. y Builders Supply QUALITY BLOCKS Bricks, Flues.
