One candidat1, who is running
against Mr. Henderson, is J. W.

lives in St. H.lens and whose
principal interest is d ’voted to

In past years the understand­
ing has been that representation
of the court be spread so that two
members of the court reside on
the Columbia Riv r side of the
county and one resides on the
Nehalem Valley, thereby giving
the people h re much more of a
