HOOD RXV R GLACIER, THURSDAY, AUGUST 18, 1910
ADVOCATES A
HIGHER SALARY
Editor Glacier Some reference hav
ing been made to my candidacy for
the office of County Judge of Hood
River County, a few plain statements
may now be in order.
I have been a resident of the State
of Oregon for 35 years, and a resident
of Hood River vulley for more than
20 years. I have property interest in
Riverside Farm three miles west of
town, and an equity in about CO lots
in the city of Hood Kiver. I re
presented Sherman and Wasco Counties
in the House in 1898 and 1H99 as a
Republican, during special and regular
sessions of the Legislature. Several
bill were introdcued by me anil some
of them became laws and remain on
the statue books to this day. One is
for the protection of the beautiful
silver gray squirrel, often Keen in the
Hood Kiver valley. Also a general
curative act, and the horticultrual
Jaw. 1 believe a public office is a
public trust, not only so, I think the
laborer is worthy of his hire, and in
this connection let me ask if you
think the small sum of three hundred
dollars per year is sufficient salary
for the County Judge of Hood Kiver
County, in which is located the
most famous and fertile valley in
the world ; where grow the finest
apples and strawberries, superb
almost beyond description, where
orchards sell for $2000 per acre and an
assessed valuation in the county of
ten to twelve million dollars. Would
it not seen just a little awkward if,
perchance, the county seat should be
located at some interior point far
from the business center of the county,
and the county Judge should be com
pelled to strike camp in a tent and,
with frying pan ever ready, cook and
prepare his own meals. It is likely he
would not be ablo to travel by auto to
any groat extent, and quite certain
he would have no extended use for the
modem flying machine backed by this
princely sum. In my business career,
covering nearly 25 years, I have done
considerable contracting, and found it
wise to become familiar with the
terms of the contract before entering
into its performance, so I deem it
proper to say in this connection, that
I do Jiot feel that I could afford to
give my time and energy nece..ary
to meet the demands of said office, for
Ichs than $1500 per year.
The County Judge of Jackson County
uregon, receives ifiKUO per year.
Many ordinary bookkeepers receive
nearly as large a sum as this for their
services. I do not think it urgent to
enier into a lengtny discussion of the
political issues of the day. However,
1 have to say that the mere fact of
holding an assembly does not const itue
an unlawful act, but is in accordance
and within the scope and meaning of
me direct primary law of the State
of Oregon. There can bo no harm in
an assembly of the voters of a party
or of a voluntary assembly, providing
each and every member there of is
allowed a free and untrammelod ex
pression of his political views.
Under these conditions every candi
date recommended for office by a
party assembly is clearly within his
rights. It is just as true that every
candidate for public office who is
nominated by petition, is within the
scope and meaning, of the direct pri
mary law of our state. So far as
the law is concrned, their rights,
duties and privileges are on a equal
footing. TBose persons . who have
signed, as candidate statement No 1.
have a right to the exercise of that
personal privilege, but statement No.
1 has nothing to do with the office of
County Judge. But very few things of
any great importance, have been ac
complished in this world without or
ganization. Every organized body
must have a leader, who, with the as
sistance of his- associates is enabled to
promote the welfare of mankind. I
believe in patriotism of the kind that
upholds, protects and defends the Con
tsitution of the United States of
America; I believe in progressive
Republicanism, ever supporting the
advance guard of modern achievment ;
I believe in progress of the kind that
takes on practical business application
to public affairs and in a civilization
that securely upholds equality and
justice. I am not a candidate for
the office of County Judge of Hood
River County. J. W. Morton.
Larsen-Probst.
Mrs. Charles A. Bell received a
postal card Tuesday announcing the
marriage of Charles Larsen, the pop
ular day clerk at the Mt. Hood hotel
and Miss Grace Probst, one of the
efficient waitresses of that hostelry.
Mr. Larsen, who has been in Hood
Kiver for the past 14 months, left last
week to take his vacation going to the
farm of his mother near Laurell, in
Washington county. Miss Probst left
about the same time for a short vaca
tion and the first news of the wedding
came Tuesday when the ;ard stated
that they were enjoying their honey
moon on the farm Miss Probst is the
daughter of a well to do rancher near
Centralia, Wash., and is known to
the hotel patrons of Hood River.
The bride and groom did not state
whether they expected to return to
Hood River, and Mr. and Mrs. Hell
are regretting the loss of two very
efficient employees. Mrs. Hell says
that she is afraid the Mt. Hood hotel
L will gain a reputation a matrimonial

has been married in the past two

the men employes to suffer from the
matrimonial epidemic, but as Gene
Hush has been showing signs of having
a case during the past few days it is
feared that the marriage fever will
become general.

is interested in the Mt. Adams Or
chard company in White Salmon
valley was here Monday.
