The office OF County Coroner is not
a political but judiciary Office as
much so as the Circuit Judge or JUS
tice OF the Peace. In aspiring to that
Office | would just as soon ask Re-
publican, as a Democrat, Socialist or
nonpartisan for his support, as the
office should be and during my in
cumbency always has been conducted
without regard to politics.
| have resided in Clatsop County
for "a years, my whole interests are
here, and l expect to remain here.
I have tried to conduct the Office
with impartiality and fairness and
with a due regard to the interest OF
the taxpayers. The annual appropria-
tions of the County Court for the
Coroner's office which includes, physi-
clans, jurors and witness fees and
other necessary expenses such as
boat hire have been $4,000 and the
actual expense has often been much
below this figure. | have always
deemed it an honor to be Coroner and
am willing to submit the matter OF
my reelection to the voters on my
record during my long tenure in the
office. w. Z. a. POhL'
