RECALL
IS ESSENTIAL
We, the undersigned committee representing the business
men of Vernonia, advocate a recall of the city council because
we believe the slate should be wiped clean in order to attain
harmony and efficiency in our city administration. We regard
this as impossible to achieve as long as the present city council
remains in office, for the following reasons:
2— Members of the council have accepted, and even par­
ticipated in innuendoes regarding the honesty, integrity and ef­
ficiency of employes of the city, when the charges upon investi­
gation have been proved wholly without foundation. ,
3— They have exhibited gross ignorance of the ordinances
and charter of the city, and of the elements of parliamentary
practice.
4— They have taken no steps to correct deficiencies in the
city ordinances and city charter when called to their attention.
5— They ignore the fact that the city is rapidly drawing
to a financial crisis when the tax burden will be very heavily
increased unless certain remedial measures which they have
avoided are taken.
6— Members of the city council have themselves been de-
linquent in the payment of taxes of various kinds, thereby set-
ting a poor example.
7— They have made no provision for a city attorney despite
the urgent necessity of one, and the fact that the hiring of one
is mandatory according to the budget approved by popular vote
early this month.
8— Through the passing of certain ordinances and acts, the
council have opened up ways by which the city may be sued,
9— Certain sums of money have been paid out by order
of the council without proper investigation into the amounts
charged.
10— Members of the council and their backers have re­
peatedly stated that regardless whether the recall results favor­
ably or unfavorably to them they would place in office men who
would continue their policies.
Agency for
11— They have been dominated by men with certain selfish
interests to serve and have allowed their own personal desires
to be paramount to the welfare of the community.

1— The council have flatly refused to pay any heed to the
wishes of the business men and conservative citizens of the
community but have been constantly attentive to the opinions of
street corner politicians.
Two Expense Account*
of English Statesmen
There Is a tradition that elections
In the “bad old days" were fantas­
tically expensive. But many candi­
dates may think enviously of the
days when a candidate could do the
thing as cheaply as Mr. Harring­
ton, of Kelston, member for Bath
in the year 1646, writes a colum­
nist in the Manchester (England)
Guardian. There exists a record of
his experiences and expenditure.
“Thursday, December 31, went to
Bath.—Dined at the George Inn,
with the mayor and four citizens;
spent at dinner six shillings (about
$1.50) In wine.

January 1.—My father gave me
four pounds (about $20) for my ex­
penses at Bath.”
He did not actually need so much,
for there Is a summary. “Note—1
gave the city messenger two shil­
lings for bearing the mayor’s letter
to me. Laid out In all. three pounds
seven shillings for victuals, drink,
and horse hire, together with divers
gifts."
That expenses In the county of
Somerset rose considerably as time
went on may be judged from that
record of “charges for one day's ex­
penses at a small pot-house at Il­
chester In the contest for the coun­
ty of Somerset In 1813.” Seven hun­
dred and ninety-two dinners, 353
bottles of rum and gin, 57 bottles
of French brandy, and 514 gallons
of heer were given at a total of

12— They have declined to adopt a conciliatory policy in
their controversy with the mayor, even when the mayor and
the recorder went so far as to offer their resignations.
Therefore we recommend the removal of the present city
council to be replaced in an open and free election by a body
of men who will adopt a sound, constructive and harmonious
policy for the good of the whole community.
