The Whitefish pilot., 1912-10-31

For competent man to fill the
office of county surveyor the voters
@. Whitefdsh need look no farther
than the present Incumbent of the
office. Harry F. Walters, the oandi-
date en- the republican ticket. 1t 10
practically thru him and upon his
recommendation that Whitefish Is
going to have the new steel bridge
across the river at the foot of Sec
ond street. He ds now acting as city
engineer of this city, and is render
Ing his services cheaper than any
other person has ever done. It was
upon his say that the petition of the
Northern Idaho & Montana Power
company to put pipe line across
the county bridge in Kalispell was
! turned down by the county commits
sfcners. He does net believe that
the taxpayers should build bridges
for the benefit OF the large corpona-
| tions.
AS an all-arcund competent man
Mr.. Walters is best suited for tho
position. His work has been so sat-
astactorv to the great majority Of
the republicans CT the county that
he received the nomination by accla-
nation.
| Mr.. Walters made a record dur
ing the past two years i'm the mat
ter OF read maps and road surveys
THAT will never be equaled by amy
other man besides himself. This will
Oe because OF the fact that Mr..
Walters is the cnly man in the coun-
ty who has had the necessary train
ing and experience in this import
amt branch of the county's work.
Mr.. Walters established his repu-
tation beyond shadow of a doubt
when he laid out the road between
Columbia Falls and Bolton with a
maximum grade CT seven per cent
after many engineers had given it
cut as their opinions that the feat
could not he accomplished. He also
saved over $4,000 to the taxpayers
OF this county by changing the Line
ON the east shore read, from Big
fork to Poison
For the first time in the history
OF the organization of the county.
there is now a complete set of road
maps in Mr.. Walters office. These
maps were complied under his per-
senal supervision. Realizing the
need of such system of road maps.
Immediately upon taking over the Of
lice he started in to work out his
plan. 1t is one that is of the finest
and is not excelled in any county of
the state. This system is a perma-
nent part Of the county records and
will be in evidence long after his
final retirement from the office of
county surveyor. On account of his
recognized ability in his line of work
the city council of this city has en-
gagged Mr.. Walters to make a COM
plete survey of this city and make a
set of permanent maps for future use
Walters has been recognized as an
expert highway engineer, and a year
ago was appointed by Governor Nor
ris to represent the state of Mon
tana at the International Good Roads
congress held in Chicago, at which
he did a big piece of advertising
fer the Flathead in his talk on the
Flathead roads.
Many expressions of appreciation Of
his work are heard from the mem-
bers of the three dominant parties
in Flathead county. They all rec
cgnize Harry Walters as the best
and most competent surveyor in the
county to-day. If these expressions
l are to be reckoned with when the
7 polls open on November 5th, he will
be reelected by an enormous major
tty.
Flathead county taxpayers easily
recognize efficiency when they go to
. the polls and for this reason alone
If no other, ut will net be stepping
over the bounds of reason to say
that Mr.. Walters will be returned to
the office he has handled so success
fully the past two years.
Here is woman who speaks from
e personal knowledge and long exper.
r ience, viz, Mrs. P. H. Brogan, OF
Wilson, Pa. who says, II know
from experience that Chamberlain (

amy other. For Group there is
