Marion Hayden.

The Republican County Convention
made wise selection when it nominated
Marion Hayden, of Alsea, for represen-
tative. Mr.. Hayden was born March %,
1862, in the beautiful valley of Alsea.
His father was one of the early pioneers
to settle in that valley and thus cast his
lot with Benton county. Having be-
come impressed with the excellent re-
sources of the Alsea Valley, he began to
prepare his Donation Land Claim for
farming purposes. From out of forest
he hewed one of the best farms that is to
be found to day in that valley. His son,
Marion, received his education in the
public schools Of our county. After
finishing his education lie remained on
the farm with his .other brother. The
Hayden farm is today the pride and
flower of Alsea. 1t furnishes large per
cent. of the wheat for milling purposes
for the citizens of that part OF the county.
A visit to it Immediately impresses the
visitor with the systematic way in which
everything is being conducted. The fine
dwellings and we1l-kept fences, con-
vinces the caller of the thrift and indus.
try of Mr.. Hayden.
Mr.. Hayden has always been loyal,
enthusiastic republican. As an evidence
of the esteem in which, he is held at
home, when he ran for the office of as
SCISSOR some years ago, he received every
vote in his home precinct, except or 9,
out of total of 100. g.
Mr.. Hayden is qualified in every re-
spect to fill the honorable position to
which he aspires. Having spent his en-
tire life in Benton county, he is espec-
tally fitted to know the needs and wants
of our people. The confidence imposed
in him by his friends is true index to
his sterling worth. As member of the
legislature, he will always be found work
ing for the interest of Benton county.
His object and aim will be to we'll and
truly serve his entire constituency. Be
ing loyal suppol ter of good roads, it Is
unnecessary to say that no stone will be
left unturned by him looking to the bet
terment of roads.

THE TINES COMPARISON.

Duties of County Judge as Member of
Commissioners Court, and as Probate
Judge.
In its article OF the 14th inst, the Times
attempts to make comparison between
Mr.. Woodson and Mr. Waters as regards
the fitness OF each for county judge. The
editorial in question is so full OF mis-
statements that even the casual observer
must have noticed them. If the Times
were sincere we could pity its lack of
knowledge; if it were fully advised con-
concerning the statements it made, we
admire its assurance.

The Times would have the public be-
ieye that the Judge is the autocrat of the
county; that upon blm devolves
the SOLE dictation, control and manage
ment of county affairs. Under the Times
microscope the county commissioners
become pigmies, while the judge devel-
ops into colossal proportions. The pur-
pose of this article is to correct any er-
roneous impression that may have been
the outgrowth of the Times article.

clICuIL court IN dpplUPilatS DO0kS-
As stated before in these columns
struggling against odds and by turning
his hand to every honest employment,
Mr.. Woodson acquired university e6u.
cation; graduated with honors that won
for him a position in the institution he
had entered as student. His aim had
been to study law and this position was
the means to that end. He studied law,
and was admitted by the supreme court
to practice; profession he has since
followed. Thus MIR. Woodson has spe-
clally equipped himself for the duties of a
judicial office. In Will contests and sim
liar matters Mr.. Woodson will bring to
the probate bench a judicial mind train
ed for the consideration of legal ques-
tions. AS LAWYER he will take a just
pride in rendering decisions that will re-
fleet credit upon him in after years and
no scheming and adroit lawyer will be
able to befog him with unsound law.
Like Mr.. Wcodson, Mr.. Waters is ga
nice young man." but unlike him he
possesses no legal training whatever.
Simply recording the decisions OF
judge without knowing the legal princi-
Piles upon which they are based, i'm.
parts no knowledge of the law. If re.
cording the decisions of the probate
judge qualities Mr.. Waters for probate
judge, then for the same reason recording
the DEGREES of Judge Hamilton would
qualify him to succeed that Judge in the
circuit court. The thinness of such argu-
ment as the Times advances, is too ap-
parent.
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1902-05-23

Every bill Tor supplies, every expendi-
ture for bridges, every road supervisors
claim, in short every item of expense
that the county is called upon to pay, are
matters fer the consideration of the com.
missioners' court; and in this court each
commissioner has every bit as much
voice in directing or refusing payment of
all bills as the Judge. No county ex-
pense can be properly incurred or paid
without the sanction of at least TWO
members of the commissioners court.
This fact is undeniable, aud being so,
how is it that "the entire financial oper-
ations Involving 100000 to $4,000 per
year" are any more largely vested in the
county Judge" than in either of the coun-
ty commissioners?
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1902-05-23

The only qualification the Times ac-
credits to Mr.. Walters, for the position
OF probate Judge is, his "known integri-
ty," and urges this qualification as the
guarantee against heirs being cheated
ont of their inheritances. To begin with,
the law directs who shall receive the
property of every man after his death,
and administrators give bonds to follow
the law. The question for the judge to
decide is, have the administrators follow
ed the law as it is laid down in the stat
utes and decided by the courts.
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1902-05-23

But in the face of this, the Times says
that the county Judge is ''to sit as MAS
TER of the financial and business opera .
tions of the county," The law never
and does not impose any
such duty. Surely, the Times does not
speak for Mr.. Waters when it implies
that he intends to usurp the functions of
the commissioners. Such contention
would afford ample reason why another
should be elected county judge, who will
consult the commissioners in conducting
county affairs.
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1902-05-23

By far the greater part of the county
judges time is occupied with the consid-
Grafton of probate business. AS mem
ber of the commissioners court a know
ledge of the law is no more necessary
than to the commissioners. The law i'm
poses upon the district attorney or his
deputies the duty of representing the
county when legal complications arise.
But in the transaction of probate busi-
ness, passing upon legal questions arising
in the administration of estates, the
county judge is called upon to decide
some of the most complex problems with
which lawyers have to deal. It is mat
ter of common knowledge among those
in position to know, that without a
knowledge of law probate judge is seri-
ously handicapped in the management of
probate business. Many of the land IT,
ties in the county depend for their validi-
ty upon the legality of the orders made
by the probate judge. and this matter of
legal equipment becomes the subject of
PRIME Importance in..considering the quail
ifications of probate judge.

Before coming to Corvallis Mr.. Wat
tiers was jeweler at Yaquina. He serv-
ed as recorder four years when he was
advanced to the Office :of county clerk,
which lie has occupied for six years.
During these ten years he has drawn
from the tax payers Of Benton county
the sum of not less than $4,000. AS
county recorder it became his duty to
copy deeds and mortgages filed for re-
cord; as county clerk it is his duty to act
as clerk for the county and circuit courts
keeping a record of their transactions as
any secretary might do. 1t is his duty
to record in a journal the acts of the
commissioners, and in another journal,
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1902-05-23

The Judge is permitted no discretion
in these matters. No one-.denies that in
fulfilling the duties of every public trust,
integrity is essential, but it is to be re-
membered that integrity is born in a
man; he does not acquire it by holding
office for number of years. Not only
can no one truthfully impeach Mr..
Woodson's integrity but men like Mr..
Currin, who have known him for years,
testify to his sterling worth. substantial
character and known integrity. Elect
Mr.. Woodson. and the interests of every
widow and orphan child will be so zeal
ously guarded that they shall receive
every farthing the law gives them, as it
is possible for any man to do.

As prescribed by statute the duties of
the county judge are three-fold. He is
judge of the probate court that is in ses-
sion at all times for the transaction of
of business connected with estates of de-
ceased persons; he is Judge of the county
court which is open the first week in each
month for the trial of civil cases where
less than 5000 is involved; and lastly, for
two days in each month he constitutes,
with the two commissioners, commission
for the transaction of county bus
mess. In performing the first two duties
he acts alone; but in the management of
the financial affairs of the county he is
only one of three.

JUDGE CARMICHAEL APPEALS. He Will Test Cost Bills of Court
 Clerks.

Several days ago H. H. Matthews of Montgomery, with whom J. c. Bradley of Birmingham was interested, both being clerks of the courts of the cities named demanded of the State Convict Board payments of certain items of costs for making final record in a criminal case denominated organization of court and grand jury, entering judgment. entering final judgment and under the head of making transcript for the Convict Depart ment every paper pertaining to the case
 Judge J. M. Carmichael. President of the Board of Convict Inspectors. refused to allow the items. insisting that a re- petition of the minute entry. showing the organization of the court and grand jury in every case tried is unnecessary and not required by law. and that the or ders, Judgments and decrees entered up- on the minutes of the court are parts of the record of the causes to which they pertain and need not be copied into the final record. and if so copied. no fee shall be charged therefor.
 The City Court refused the mandamus prayed for to force Judge Carmichael to do so. Messrs. Matthews and Bradley have begun their suit anew and a man. damus has been awarded against Judge Carmichael. He has appealed the case to the Supreme Court. the main question be- ing shall a clerk be permitted to CODY into a final record in every case tried the organization of the court and charge fol 1t. or shall he let the organization of tht court and juries stand at the beginning of the court as a predicate for all it. subsequent judgments to rest upon?
