Preparations are already beiLg
made for the Tri-County Fair

Tuesday right to ascertain the
dates of other fairs in this part
of the state and next Tuesday

pirate $1,000 in addition to the
$500 appropriated by the state.

Gillian Taxpayers Ask Why the
Burglar Alarm Failed to
Register on Post and
Bridge Deals

The two-part novelette, pub
lished in the last issue of the
Times over the name of II. A..
Thiessen is quite creditable as a
first attempt. However the
honorable Judge overlooked a
few things which are important
parts in his scenario. Even so,
it is really a much better literary
effort than we had expected.
We pass over his introduction
without criticism. it being a
fairly good imitation of hot air,
and, going to Part One of the
story proper, we will say that the
first is true as far as the author
went but, as we said before. he
left out two-thirds of the impor-
tant facts. AS this will be up
for the decision of the court
next week re will say no more
about it until that decision is
made when it will be thoroughly
explained. We will say here,
however, that the judge knows
no more about the cost of pro
ducihg printed material than we
do about the most difficult bit of
surgery, hence his inability to
pass upon printing bills with any
degree of fairness. He next erred
in saying that the case now up
had been once thrown out of
court. 1t was not. 1t was with
drawn on account of improper
service. The next sentence in
dited by the budding literary
genius, referring to blow that
killed father" is where the hu-
man interest element, so neces-
sary to a successful story, is
brought into play.
In referring tothe appointment
of the official paper the first of
this year, the judge says that
"the Globe refused to swear that
it's list was genuine and that the
Times had a sworn statement in
accordance with the require
ments of law" This is one of
the deepest parts of the authors
plot The law does not re-
quire the publisher of a news
paper, asking the appointment
as official paper to file sworn
statement of circulation when
application is made. Rather the
law says that in case Of a contest
Condon globe. (Condon, Gilliam Co., Or.) 189?-1919, 1913-05-30

for the appointment the court
shall notify the applicants and
set day on or before which
sworn statements shall be filed.
This the court failed to do but
appointed the Times without fur
ther notification TO the Globe.
One could hardly expectanything
else, however. after the Globe
had, by reviewing the court,
assailed the dignityof the Judge.
Thiessen then rambles on to the
effect that the Times agreed to
publish the tax lists for tencents
per square while the Globe had
charged fifty cents. The Times
has published the lists at 10e per
square butt it does not follow that
it is fair rate by any means. A
farmer may pillow another's field
for lOc per acre but that does
not mean that other farmers
must be as foolish.
In Part Two, regarding the
lining of the Jail, the Judge gets
behind the grand jury. 1t makes
no difference to the Globe how
many times this was recon-
mended, it still remains in our
view needless expenditure of
the taxpayers money.
Now while the judge, who has
chosen to style himselfas a bur-
glar alarm, is still in the literary
mood we would ask him where
the burglar alarm was when the
Interior Ware bouseCo., of which
he is local manager, received a
county warrant for $800for posts?
Where has this same alarm bee n
during the last six months when
$50, 600 of the taxpayers money
have been expended on roads?
Where was this same alarm
when the contract was given to
one man to erect a county bridge
across the John Day without ask.
ing for competitive bids? Where
was the alarm when a county
warrant was drawn several
weeks ago to pay for this bridge
when there isn't a stick of tim
ber on the ground as yet? There
have been false alarms. Even
vaunted burglar alarms. adver-
tised as effective, have been
known to fail miserably at GER
tain times.
