County Commissioners Fail to Name Treasurer Candidate
The May 24 meeting of the county board of commissioners ran long as they debated the selection to succeed Treasurer Maynard. Several candidates were backed by different factions, including Dege ler for FE. P. Kingabury of Centralia, Evans for T. J. Spooner of Chehalis, and Long for W. J. Walt of Winlock or C. G. Huntley of Centralia. No decision was reached, and the board adjourned, with talk of possibly appointing Maynard as deputy.
