In Defense of S. W. Condon.
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

for any one to attempt to doctor himself,
although h may have the proper rem

results from a cold or from an attack of
the grip, and that by giving Chamber
