The city's reservoir was named in his honor because the effort to build the

dedicated in 1990.
Harris was appointed mayor in July 1980 to fill an unexpired term. Then he was
elected in 1981 and served until December 1985. When he was appointed, he gave
his philosophy about being in public service. ``I always like to lay my cards
on the table face-up. Then there's no misunderstanding afterwards,'' he said.

"He did an outstanding job with the city," said current Mayor Jack
Withrow, who was on the City Council when Harris was mayor. "He was a
really fine man. I really enjoyed working with him."
John Sims, former county judge-executive, was sheriff when Harris was mayor.
``He was one of Lincoln County's better citizens. He was very active in a lot
of things,'' Sims said. ``He was a super nice guy.''
Born Feb. 20, 1914, in Lincoln County, he was a son of the late James Anderson
and Jennie Pepples Harris. He was a farmer and had been active in the Lincoln
County Farm Bureau, the Democratic Party and had served on the Lincoln County
Fair Board. He was a member of Stanford Christian Church.
