TAYLOR w. EBERHARD
Editor East Oregonian:
Pendleton, ore.

Nov. 6, 1922.
Editor East OregOnian:
/ At the coming election the people
must choose a joint senator for Uma-
tliIa, Morrow and Union counties, to
| represent them in the legislature. 1t
must be either Henry j. Taylor, sue
! cessful farmer of Pendleton, who mas
filled many positions of trust ana non
or and whose record for economy Is
Wcll known to us all, or it. must be Z.
r. Ebcrhard of La Grandc, VINO is a
partner Of George Cochran the Wtaef
superintendent which office IS sup
ported by the state with an aDpropfla-
tion of $15,O0O.00 a year, though
there is practically nothing to do along
the water adjudications.
While Mr.. Taylor has not been in
the legislature, and has no record
there, his answering honesty, econ
omy and ability as a councilman IN the
Pendleton city council, and as trust
ed and respected trustee of the odd
Fellows Home is well known. He is
known as an uncomprising slayer
against extravagance-just the CHAR
acter of man we need in the state
senate to hold out against graft and
extravaganza. He would not have,
and it is safe to say, will not nave
some private scheme to log roll and
trade his vote for.
What does the senate journal show
the record of his opponent Eberhard
to me? 1t shows Il wonderful unanl-
nifty in the vote of Eberhard and the
"Portland push;' it shows that in his
first term the law was changed so as
to allow his partner George Cochran
to draw the state salary, office and
travelling expenses, and then follow
other business also In the second
term it shows that Mr.. Eborhard was
and his letters show that
he was proposing "A bill. to create an
other circuit judge for the district OF
Union and Wallowa counties, at the
cost to the taxpayers of this state OF
many thousand dollars, though that
district has u great deal less wealth
and population than the Umatilla-
Morrow district, which Judge Phelps
takes care of without and trouble, and
has time to help in other districts.
This infamous bill by some means
got through the legislature. Mr..
Ehcrhard had a hrother-n-law in
Wallowa county engaged in the prac-
ticc of law. This bill would create a
new and useless office at big salary
