Political History of George Sl. Davis as County Commissioner Candidacy
Frank L. Thurber’s critique argues Davis is unfit for Chehalis County commissioner, accusing him of serving timber interests and tax dodging. The piece contrasts Davis with Charles McIntyre, praises McIntyre’s record, and urges voters to support the challenger. Thurber cites Thurber’s prior writings, cites timber valuation issues, and claims Davis benefits from a timber-owner coalition. The letter targets voters ahead of the September 1908 primary in Hoquiam, Washington.
