A rigid enforcement of all the laws and an economical and efficient administration assured if you | PROMOTE STARWICH SHERIFF PAID ADVERTISEMENT During my former campaign 1 promised the people, if elected, I would endeavor to give them a pro- gressive, efficient and economical administration, and I have done so, With the knowledge acquired dur- ing my first, term I am better able to serve you during the next four years, and can promise even better resulta, I know how roads and bridges should be built, and with the modern equipment acquired will be able to give you more and better construc tion improvements for leas money than has ever been accomplished before. This statement can be amply ver ified by work done during this year. My ambition is to serve you hon- eatly and efficiently and get value received for every dollar of your money expended. I have incurred the enmity of several former useless employes whom I cut off the pay roll and who are now looking for revenge during this campaign. It will be my policy during the next four Years to see that no sur plus help is carried on my pay rolls, and see that thone carried on the pay rolls earn every cent they get from King County, My policy will "| be a fair day's work for a fair day's pay. The county businesa should not be any @ifferent than @ private business concern. ‘The present Board are a unft tn seeking & way to relieve the tax payers of King County from the present high tax rate, and I pledge myself to see that my end of the levy i materially reduced. The County Commissioners are in no Way responsible for the high taxes, as the following figures will show: The 1920 levy of 71.49 mills was divided as follows: State, 9.28 mills; county, 16.15 mills; city, 32.20 mills; schools, 13.50 mills, There was no Port Commission last year. Of the 71.49 mills levy, 62.21 mills were needed for local purposes We have the city, the school board and the Port Commission and the state and the various district school boards, These branches are re- sponsible for the high rate of taxa- tion. It i# an easy matter for office seekers to tell you they will reduce taxes if they are elected County Commissioner, and that they will cut the budget in two; but they do not | tell you how ft can be done without | impairing the service the people | demand and must have. The pres-| ent Board have worked harmo-| niously for your tnterests during | their present terms and you are assured the same efficient, conscien tious and honest administration of your County business if Mr. Ramaay and myself are reelected. It is gen-| erally recognized that the present Board of County Comminsioners is the best that King County bas ever had, and I am pleased to may the first Board of County Commission- te who have worked harmoniously for the best interests, not only for their own district, but for the County at large on @ just and equit- able basis.
