 MECHANICALLY IT HAS NO SUPERIOR it is not possible to put better materials in a chassis, simply because the science of metal F. 1urgy knows no better Rec and always has used t-se best. The fame of Rec rests on that IT IS NOT POSSIBLE to machine parts more accuratey-for the Rec factories ad- nittedly the Models" among automobile fac : tories and Rec standards admittedly of the highest.

 AND IF YOU HAVE WATCHED closely the various new bodies that have since come out F.. some of them only too palpably redesigned to emulate the lines of this Rec Six-you have observed that it had set the style for the season.

parts of the county. By talking with
him we are convinced that he realizes
fully the strong sentiment that per-
vades the people in demanding that he
discharge the duties of the office hon.
estly and faithfully, and that 1t is of
the utmost Importance chat deputies be
carefully selected. His course in this
regard will be very carefully scrutin-
lied and many persons Will surely form
their opinion of his fitness from those
appointments. However, Mr.. Wyatt
can have nothing to say as to any ap.
polntments until after the county court
elects him, in case that should be done.
In the event the court should choose
another, Mr.. Wyatt can not be held
responsible for any official acts as
sheriff. Should the court decline to
elect at Its quarterly term in July,
John Q. Burnett will continue to dis
charge the duties OF the Office until af :
ter the election in August and the per-
son elected shall have qualified.

meetings and those who voted against
Mr.. Wyatt congratulated him on his
victory just as heartily as those who
voted for him. The meeting then ad-
journed and every one seemed to feel
that no mistake had been made in the
selection OF strong man before the
people even if some did feel that some
other candidate might have made a
better officer.
Mr.. Waytt has had considerable ex-
perience as deputy sheriff, being one
OF the deputies in the Rush case this
term of court, and there Is no doubt
about his ability to handle the work.
There Is a feeling that the county
court will very likely elect Mr.. Wyatt
sheriff at its quarterly meeting, Nor
day. July 10, in which event he will
have the chance to get familiar with
the duties before the August electino
and the people will have some chance
to estimate him and determine to some
extent his fitness for the place. Just
what the county court viii! do, how
ever, no one can say.
Many expressions of satisfaction at
the outcome of the work of the COM
mittee were heard after adjournment
and many expressed themselves as sure
that the strongest man before the peo-
pie had been chosen.
The writer has known Mr.. Wyatt
personally and intimately for nearly
fifteen years and we take pleasure in
stating that We believe ne will measure
up to the duties of the place and will
spare no effort to preserve order in all

FIRST BALLOT.

At this juncture Of the voting Jere
Morrow put IN nomination the name OF
Vim. Wattenbarger. Several persons
present spoke very favorably of Mr..
Wattenbarger as citizen, but no one
seemed to be we'll informed as to his
probable ability to make sheriff. On
the basis of his good citizenship and
the enthusiasm manifested for him by
some members Of the committee he
received a strong vote on the third bal
lot and only missed being the nominee
by one vote on the fourth ballot.
We have since been informed that
Mr.. Wattenbarger is not physically
aole to discharge the duties of sheriff
and has never had any experience along
that line.

CHRISTOPHER OUSTED AS
ASSESSOR OF CANYON CO..

Bailey still owes Canyon County
about $4,000 according to the Van
Deusen report, why delay in forcing
him to come across!
The upshot of the whole matter is
that the county board and county at
torney are in cahoots on a scheme to
make ugly charges and plausible in
situations against Christopher and by
postponing action until the campaign
is on, claim to the voters that unless
they are reelected the county will
lose large amount OF money. The
plan is ingenious in the exereme but
what the voters and taxpayers want to
know is the reason why proceedings
to recover the alleged deficit claimed
in the Van Deusen report have not
been started months and months ago.
The answer is plain. 1t is good
campaign dope to feed the voters.
What we desire to impress upon our
readers is that the decision OF Judge
Bryan in the custer case does not
affect or have any bearing on the
alleged shortage in the assessors
office. but of course the Democrats
will shout that Judge Bryan has de-
cided that Christopher is guilty of en-
bezzlement-which is about as near
the truth as the Democrats ever get
when they make statement of fact

topher. This action is brought under
section 7459 of the revised codes. The
complaint is in the nature of petition
asking that the defendant be ousted
from the office of assessor and tax
collector of Canyon county, on &C
count of his alleged failure, on the
first Monday in May and the first
Monday in June, 1916, to make a state
ment and report of taxes collected in
his official capacity. Section 1913 Of
the revenue laws provides: That on
the first Monday of each month the
assessor must settle with the county
auditor for all monies collected on &C
count of taxes levied on property en-
tered upon the personal property as
sessment roll, and make a detailed
statement under oath, upon blanks, in
the form to be supplied by the state
auditor, showing the number and
amount of every receipt issued, and the
amount of money collected for state
and county purposes, and for every
city, town, village, school district, road
district, or other taxing district, since
his last settlement, and must pay all
such monies into the county treasury
upon the certificate of the county
auditor to be apportioned as provided
in this act 1t is for failure upon the
part of the defendant to comply with
these provisions of the law that this
action has been brought Upon the
trial it was not contended by defend
and that statements were made in ac-
cordance with the requirements oil

admitted that such statements were
not made. 1t was admitted that q
