White Salmon, Wash.', March 2, 1903. Editor Glacier: I want to ask your in dulgence and the use of your valuable paper in behalf of my neighbor, Mr. Condon, as o citizen of White Salmon and one of Its well-wishers, and with malice toward none. I ear. not but feel that the article in our last week's local paper needs some reply, and as Mr. Condondnforms me that he will ignore it, will you be generous enough to al low me to take up one feature of it in which we are all interested. The point is this: Did t ho school hoard waste the money of the taxpayers in advertising for bids for our school bonds? Yes or no. If yes, then the board (Mr. Con don, Mr. Keiglerand Mr. Adams) have not been faithful to the interests of the district. If no, then tliey have been grossly slandered while doing their full duty under the laws. 'I'll is I d p.'per of recent dale contained the follow ing: "The White Salmon school board de serves great credit for the able manner in which they have handled the school house matters. Wo cannot too heartily congratulate the school board upon their efficient management." It appears now that the editor has discovered the board did not waste our money by advertising for bond buyers in the White Salmon paper, and straightway conies the eruption, an eruption from what was commonly looked upon as an extinct crater. The slate school laws read as follows: "Sec. 119. When authorized and em powered to issue bonds as provided in sections 117 and 118 of this act, the hoard of directors shall, within thirty days after the date of the election, cer tify the result to the county treasurer, who shall immediately publish notice of the sale of such bonds in at least one weekly newspaper published at the county seat, if there lie one, for four consecutive issues, and publish such other notices as the board of directors may require." The-proceedings of the board had lieen completed aud certified np as re quired by the law in section 119, then the duties of the county treasurer com menced. The county treasurer used his judgment,' aud being required by section 119 to advertise in "a paper pub lished at the county seat," did so, hav ing the right to advertise in another paper under the same provision in sec tion 119, he advertised aWo in the liiekelton News, which I am informed is the olllcial paper of the county; hut even if it was not, he had the right to use his own judgment. Now, the amount paid by our school board was 5 for each notice, which seems to he verv reasonable and far below legal and customary rates. These generous rates were In response to letters from Mr. Condon asking for lowest possible rates. Any citizen in a public position is answerable to just criticism, but in this case the facts not only show that the board have been careful and con scientious but have done an awful lot of hard, thankless work without com pensation and received many hard kicks. Tbey deserve the helping band of all of us in these vexious school mat ters.' The remainder of the silly article is unworthy of comment and deserves the same silence that the recent article when we were shown up in comparison to Stevenson. Mr. Condon has evr shown a willingness and desire to fur ther do all he could for the commu nity's good without any compensation except the strong desire born in him tl)o huililmg up ot our scliool, win re his children and ours must depend for a common school education. Mr. Con don informs me that he is not askintr any favors political or otherwise. Hd ne sought sucn lavors tie woutu cer tainly have remained where he was, well up the ladder, when his failing health brought Jiim among us. C. F. Waldo. The Glacier fell called upon to say something last week in refutation of the charges made against Mr. Condon in the article mentioned above, but niter second thought, concluded, with Mr. Condon, that the source from which they sprang was not worth answering. We can say tho Glacier lost its most val ued correspondent when Mr. Condon was employed by the Oregonian to write exclusively for its columns, and that during the time he was our White Salmon correspondent, the subscription list of the Glacier was more than doubled. We lost one subscriber, but his loss was made np by a member of his family subscribing for the Gla cier. Ed. Best Uemedy for Constipation.
