Supplement to the Hood River Glacier, November 3, 1910 I ? ; ' . r I Snmuel W. Stark, the Republican nominee for Circuit Judge, makes the following statement : For the express purpose of bringing relief to conditions existing in the Cir cut Court of Hood River and Crook , counties, I accepted the urgent request of friends to become a candidate for judge of the Circuit Court in the Sev enth District. Onlv two terms of court are held in Hood River and Crook counties each year, and no adjourned terms, and the people of these counties are practically without means of redress. For in stance, you commence an action in either Crook or Hood River county, and the adverse party simply files a motion or demurrer, and there the case stands for months awaiting the next regular term of court. To relieve this situation, if elected, I will hold regu lar adjourned terms of court in Crook County every sixty days and ad journed terms of court open for the transaction of business in Hood River county. Adjourned terms of court are no expense to the county, and this will anow cases to go through court with, out delay. My opponent, W. I.. Bradshaw, the Democratic incumbent; is not in a position to ask re-election. He has been in office over 19 yeas, and has re ceived over $57,000 from the people, and with this has made successful in vestments, and is now financially well fixed in his old days. His long reign in office is not duo to his ability, be cause over fifty per cent of the cases appealed from his court have been re versed and sent back for new trial. A term of office is six years, and no man should hold any ofliee over two terms. If Judge Bradshaw is the only man who can discharge the duties of this office, the people had better find it out while he is alive and make preparation to .abolish the office in case he should pass away.

Business Men Denounce Misstatement. To the Voters of the Seventh District : Our attention having been called to the assertion made by Mr. J-.. A. Douthit. a npmnrratiV .Tnaficn nf iha Peace in The Dalles, that Sam Stark is a weak opponent to Judge Brad shaw, and considered by the people of his home town to be a joke. We do not hestitate to say this in untrue and misleading. Mr. Stark is over 32 years of age, with ten years experience fin the active practice of law in the state und federal courts nf Oreo-nn ia u man uroll learned in the law. nml in puato fa. spect competent and qualified to dis charge the duties of Circuit Judge. He is a self-made man, with a mind of his Own. and if elected in nur inrlir- ment, will administer the duties of the oince wiinout ueiay, impartially and irrespective of politics and without fear or favor to anyone. So far as nrnnortv int.nrpt;ts ara ntn- cerncd. we feel thev wnnlil lin inct n safe with Mr. Stark on the bench as they are now or would be with Judge Bradshaw re-elected. We believe it. will hp rlorminutrutofl bevond doubt that Mr Ktnrlc will nrriuo the strongest opponent ever met by Judge Bradshaw, the Democratic nominee, in any election, and we feel safe in SHVinir that Mr Ktnrl- will carry Hood River County with a safe majority.
