The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1920-10-23


One of the early residents of the
county is for the first time in his life
a candidate for office, and he be-
came a candidate at the demand of
his fellow townsmen in Chewelah
and voters of the third district. It
is an old gag that every candidate
becomes such at the solicitation of
his friends" In the case of Mr..
Oppenheimer, it happens to be strict
ly true, for he is successful bust
ness man with many interests and
absolutely refused to consider filing
for office. His filing was finally
made through sheer pressure of
appeal in person and by letters from
taxpayers who demanded a candi-
date who could be depended upon
to serve the county's interests in
this important office.
Mr.. Oppenheimer has been resi-
dent of the county for 30 years. He
has been successful in his own bust
ness, his promise is sure proof of
performance, he is known by tall
older residents of the county as a
man of ability and strict integrity.
If he can be secured to look after
the county interests for the small
pay the office allows, it would seem
like mighty good business to require
him to serve.

ranks of such prominent men and
women as Herbert Parsons, republic
can leader of New York; Hamilton
Holt, editor Of the Independent; Har-
old L. Ickes, the distinguished pro-
gressive republican leader of the
central states; Theodore Murburg,
of New York; Prof. Geo. b. Adams
of Yale, Irving Fisher of Yale, and
others, and their open support of
Cox and the League, have contribute
ed much to the tide that has set
running in favor of the democrats.
This change is not confined to the
states referred to but is noticeable
in other states as well.

The absentee voting law, which
was in effect in 1916 for the first
time, was not generally made use of
then, but it promises this year to be
generally taken advantage of by all
who may be called out of their vot-
ing precinct election day.
If you are called outside of the
county, but within the state, on Nov.
2, you may still cast your ballot
under the following provisions:
1. Before leaving secure from the
city clerk the absentee voters certi-
ficate. You must go in person and
there sign an affidavit.
2. On election day go to the near
est voting place, wherever you may
happen to be, so long as you are in
side the state but outside the county,
and present the certificate to the in
spector in charge. He will give you
a ballot.
8. You may vote for the following
officers: Presidential electors, sena-
tor, congressman, all state office can
didates, legislators, senate and house,
state judicial ticket, but not any
county officers or county judicial can
dates. You may vote on all amend
ments and referendum measures. On
the ballot you receive the names of
the congressional candidates of your
district may not be included, as you
may be outside the congressional dis
trict, although within the state; and
the names of the legislative candi-
dates of your district will not be on
your ballot. You may write in the
names of the candidates you wish to
vote for these offices.
A. Turn over the ballot to the cleo
ton inspector in the precinct you
happen to vote in; he will mail it to
your county auditor You have no
further responsibility.
5. If outside the state you lose
your vote entirely, including your
vote on the presidency.
Senator Harding, republican candi-
date for president, in his paper the
Marion Star, printed the following
words concerning ex-President Roose-
welt: Roosevelt, was confident,
boastful, truculent. The most self
seeking politician this country has
ever known. The most dangerous
agitator Benedict Arnold is more
like Roosevelt, for he won his coun-
try's plaudits and turned traitor when
he might have joined in victory"
Of Senator Hiram Johnson, he
said: "Such braying asses as this
egotistical johnson. He appears at
close view to be both fakir and
a blackguard."

Albert l. Kulzer of Chewelah and
AL Weatherman of Addy are two
state representatives who have al
ready served this county one term
in the ring-controlled state legisla-
ture, and escaped without being
bribed, bought, controlled, or intimi-
dated-and really got some things
for Stevens county at the same time.
Their votes in the legislature were
in the interests of Stevens county,
and were not controlled by the King
county machine. Their speciality
was not in spending money, but they
leaned toward the economical side in
refusing to vote for excessive ap-
preparations in order to get a little
something extra for this county.
The old pork barrel plan is not
their plan, and their reelection will
not likely make them any more
generous with public funds, for they
know how these funds are wrung
from the taxpayers.
Mr.. Weatherman is the one who Sc
cured the three army trucks for this
county, saving US nearly $4,000 in
roadbuilding equipment. Mr.. Kul-
ger is lawyer of well recognized
ability, whose presence in the legis-
lature is a protection to this coun-
+ ty. Their work for this county was
not put on political basis, but was
on business basis for our interests.
The pay of legislator does not
equal the expense of the legislator
at the session, hence it behooves the
county to send men who have been
tried and found DESTROYS of serving
their home county, rather than of
making little something on the
side.
The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1920-10-23

Among the opportunities for the
taxpayers of the county to effect
saving is in the selection of a county
coroner. There need be no polit-
ical bias connected with the office
of coroner. as it is one of pure bust
ness, and in its nature it is very
important one, as 1t has to do large
ly with the criminal department of
the county work.
A coroner holds inquests. A
coroner and his jury decide whether
or not an unexplained death should
be explained. In almost every case,
the presence of q physician Is re-
quired, and the physician is entitled
