Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1922-05-31

As everyone knows, Oscar Winger,
our popular county auditor is seek
| ing his denomination and is asking
for the support of the Republican
| party. This in view of Mr.. Win
gers splendid record the Republi-
can party can we'll afford to give
him and undoubtedly will.
As stated by Mr.. Winger in his
own article of this weeks issue one
of the reasons why he wants to be
elected for another term is that
realizing the amount and the inn
por:ance of the work in the county
auditors office he is fully convinced
himself that the system of chang
ing officers every few years is wrong,
and looking at it from a business
standpoint he certainly must be right.
/ Especially is he justified in asking
for another term at this time when
there is no one to logically succeed
him.
Mr.Daubney, the present deputy,
has as already been stated, been
forced on account of his health to
retire and this leaves a vacancy that
must be filed Mr.. Winger realizing
the Importance of this step, rather
i than turning the office over to a
new man entirely, decided to seek
the office for one more term, and in
the meantime fill that vacancy. With
this idea in view Mr.. Winger has
then as stated in a previous issue
chosen as his next deputy a soldier
boy who is in every way worthy of
the position. This soldier boy can
then familiarize himself with the
work in the auditors office and can
be made principal two years from
now if the people see fit to Go so.
= Mr.. Winger has in this way very
properly taken care of the soldier
question and is to be complimented
: for it. He feels himself that IL is
I better to have a couple of years
training before taking over the office.
This seems to be a good idea and is
generally followed. They have done
this in the clerks and Treasurer's
office. When we now get one in the
AUDITORS office also we are taking
care of them in a proper way, as
they can then in a short time all be
made principals, without any hard
ship or danger to anybody.
Mr.. Winger is an official whom the
county can well be proud of. He
i has given the county the. best there
lis in him and is without doubt one
of the most popular as well as eff
cient county auditors We have ever
had, and the Republican party is
we'll justified in supporting him fol
another term.
