Now that the array of battle is determined for tile pri-
mary election through the closing of the filing period we'd
like to toss out a thought we've harbored for many years.
It's simply this: county public offices should
be determined on a non-partisan basis.
Party politics should have nothing whatever to do with
who holds the offices of county sheriff, prosecutor, auditor,
treasurer, assessor or commissioner.
A start was made toward this end when the school su-
perintendents office was placed on a non=partisan basis the
same as the court judges.
We don't elect our port or fire district commis-
sioners on a party basis, nor our municipal officer's
or school directors. Why then should county offi-
cials bear a party label?
We believe firmly there would be greater fairness in de-
cisions if there was less tendency to let party affiliation be
a consideration, that the "good of the party" might have
lessened bearing on the action of public office holders.
The emphasis would be stronger in a voters mind when
he was ready to cast his ballot on the individual candidate's
ability and qualifications rather than what party label he
