John Richardson.

John Richardson, the democratic
nominee for county treasurer, is so we'll
known in Chehalis county--to the older
residents, at least, as TO render an intro
duction almost superfuous. Yet, many
new people will vote this fall, SO we will
give brief sketch of this gentleman:
John Richardson was nominated for
county treasurer by the democratic coun-
ty conventon-as a whole-without the
intervention of any "gang," or set of
bosses, and it may be said, without any
solicitation on his part. Mr. Richardson
accepted the nomination just as he would
accept any other public duty-and his
performance has always proved better
than the promises of the office seeker.
MIR. Richardson is native of Canada,
where he was born in 1851, and at an
early age moved with his parents to
Texas, where he grew to manhood and
learned the trade OF blacksmith.
In 1887 Mr.. Richardson moved to
Washington, settling with his family at
Hoquiam, in which city he has since
been a respected citizen, and where he
has filled several responsible offices of
trust, always with honor to himself and
good faith to the public.
He was member OF the first city
council OF Hoquiam, where he quickly
gave evidence of capacity for public
affairs to such an extent that when the
city advanced to the third class he was
elected mayor over one Of the most popu-
lar republicans in that city. He was
also postmaster OF Hoquiam for four
years, and in that trying position gave
eminent satisfaction. Since, he has been
chief of police at Hoquiam, where he
again filled public expectations.
During a residence of 10 years at Ho-
quiAm, the record OF NJ Richardson
justities the claim Of his ends tnar n .
will be the right man in the right place
| il elected to this office; that no bank or
individual will have "string" on him,
but that the affairs of the office will be
capably conducted with an eye single to
the good name Of Mr.. Richardson and
the interests OF the people OF Chehalis
county.

SENTIMENTGROWING
THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY FOR
COURT HOUSE REMOVAL.
Discussion of the Movement Has
Brought Out the Facts in the Case,
While Some of the Objections Are
so Absurd as TO Defeat Their
Object.

Had the elections occurred two weeks
ago, it is doubtful if the question to To-
cate the county seat at the geographical
and population center would have car
ried. Today 1t looks as if the required
three-ffths vote in its favor will be great
ly exceeded. The change in sentiment
is noticeable all over the county, even
including the vicinity OF Montesano.
This change is due solely TO the dis
cussion of the merits OF the case, which
discus ion has been carried on by the
people OF Grays Harbor by simply stating
facts. On the other hand, the opposition
at Montesano has depended on cam
paign of Justification and appeals TO
ignorance and prejudice. Some OF the
misstatements in the Nidette have
proved the best kind OF argument for
removal, their very absurdity being so
apparent as to lead to investigation and
consequent disgust.
The last issue OF that paper plainly re-
veals the desperation Of the small coterie
who imagine they own the court house,
and that it is established and main
One-half OF its front page is devoted to
the subject, yet careful search fails to
show solitary argument, although it
overtlows with abuse of that large ma
jority OF the citizens OF Chehalis county
who desire to be permitted to transact
their county business without the enor.
nous expense the present location en-
tails.
For instance, it contains letter pur-
porting to have been written by man
from Pittsburgh, bearing all the charac.
teristics of patent medicine testimonial,
to the effect that it would require $50 900
to build the foundation for court house
on the proposed site. This is one Of
those absurd boomelangs that is doing
SO much to consolidate the vote of Grays
Harbor in favor of removal. Everybody
here knows that within the past three
years building on similar land has been
done in Aberdeen to the value Of several
millions of dollars, and that the cost of
foundations on tide land is not much
more expensive than permanent founda-
tions on other soil-the cost of pilng be-
ing the chief difference.
That the people OF Grays llarbor-who
pay three-fourths OF the taxes-are
scheming to erect eXtravagant buildings
is another favorite argument of the Vi
dette, yet that paper, and its readers
know that the taxpayers here are just as
anxious to avoid unnecessary expense as
are their brethren in the eastern part OF
the county. In fact, to remove the cou,t
house to this locality would be to place
it where it's management would be under
the close observation of the largest tax
payers in the county, who in self-interest
would be heard from should any set oI
officials attempt an era OF extravaeance,
such as has been witnessed at Monte
Sano.

are not altogether fools. They reckoned

also reckoned that they, by appeals to

known majority of the republican party

would be out of a job in minute if his
stock in trade, ''party loyalty" was taken
from him. The question to be answered
at the polls ON November 6, is not so

This would be matter for that party

the selection OF the candidates of the
bosses. But, if those candidates be unfit,
for any reason, the county as whole
suffers, whereas it is entitled to the best
service obtainable for the salaries paid
they being fixed by law, so as to give to
the incompetent the same as to the ex-
pert.
With this thought in mind, it will be
well to consider the nominees for county
tieasurer-not, perhaps, so much as to
their personality as to the methods OF
their nomination. Let us take the re-
publican nominee for county treasurer,
and what do we fud?

Third-That, having served but one

brings the blush of shame to all self

the county who are acquainted with the

should be given for his tnrning down.
