OF INTEREST TO TAXPAYERS.
Attorney Henderson Highly Com
plimented County Cierx n°iden
tor his Eliiciet S^rvicexn
Office.
——o►—
At a meeting oi representative citi
zens at tne Fresbyterian Guild Hall
on Monday evening, Attorney J. L.
Hendcisor.
highly
complimented
County Clerk J. C. Holden for the
manner in which he has faithfully
served the public. He said:
"lull have just heard read by the
President ot this Club Mr. Chester
Holden's communication stating that
Circuit Court being in session and a
case being tried tonight, it would be
impossible ioi min to be present, and
asking me to reprcr.ent him in a five
minutes tab., snow mg why he should
be re-elected to the office he now
fills, that ot County Clerk.
“My business is sdeh that for more
than 30 years I have been intimately
acquainted with county clerks in their
official capacity in the county offices
in four counties in Oregon, one in
Vv ashington and two in .uissippippi.
For lour years t have sat, as you
might say, side by side with Chester
Holden, almost every working day
during that time. Ann the experience
1 nave had in my abstract business, I
winch brings me into contact with all
the difierent lines ol the County
Clerk s duties. 1 iecl myself compe
tent to judge as to a County Clerk s
qualifications. 1 want to say right
here, oi all the County Clerks ollices
in which 1 nave labored during the i
pa?t »b years, Chester Holden s .ot
nee is the best Kept, and more work ,
is done, and well uone, and with less
expense ill proportion to the work re
quired to be done, Ilian in any other
County Clerks oince -oi the ones ■
mentioned, r do not believe there is i
another man in the county that can
1111 ms place so well, and with such '
good to tne public, as he can lumseli. j
“His office is the only otnee in the I
County that is sell sustaining, and ,
more, the money mat hi otiice takes ‘
in in lees pays all its expense oi main
tenance, ano leaves a substantial sur- I
plus to the credit of the county, which ,
helps reduce the taxes. All county I
mattcis begin and ent^in the office oi
the County Clerk. In fact this otlicc :
might be called the County's “back |
bone.” Chester Holden and lus clerks
besides being efficient, are courteous
and attentive to all who have any
Lusiness with the office, and are nev
er too busy or too tired to give every
one quick and smiling service. Now, 1
my lnetids, we do not want any oi
the candidates for the several ollices
lor which they are aspirants, to get it
into their heads that we are ‘stuck’
on them, and that they are the only
ones who can till the jobs, or that
the jobs were made for them. Wc
want them all to understand that we
pul them into oflice as public ser
vants, to work for the public welfare,
and in deciding whom we will put in
to any office, the clerk's for instance,
wc should decide upon the one who
will give to the public the most for
the money, the one who will serve the
people best and attain the best results
We should lay aside all personal feel--
ing in the matter, and though our
own brother were a candidate, vote
against him and for the other fellow
if the other fellow will make the best
public servant. In the State of Miss
issippi , where I lived and worked at
my abstract business for 6 years, the
people adopted a new constitution. It
had been the custom before its ad
option to re-elect competent officers
•ver and over again, and especially
the clerk of the county. A new law
went into effect thereafter, that no
county officer could succeed himself, ;
except the clerk. I worked in the of- I
fices of the clerks at both Harrison
and Hancock counties. The clerk in
the former county held his office for
*0 consecutive years, and the clerk in
Hancock was still in office, and he
was clerk 8 or 10 years before 1891.
There must be a good reason for this.
The reason is that it takes years to
make a competent clerk, as is Chester
Holden, and this education costs the
taxpayers money. Then why change?
No argument I have heard against*
re-electing Chester Holden is used,
except he has had the office long
enough; and if what I have said ¡3
true, and I do no* think it can be re
futed. tlx argument is a very poor
one from a public welfare outlook,
Hence my advice is, retain a good
man as long at it is for the people’s
interest.”
