The Ashwood Prospector over did itself last week editorially in an effott to convince ita public that county division was favored generally by the residents in the vicinity of Ashwood. Not content with giving "purported facts" the Prospector advanced the assertion that the only objection against county divison was coming from the Prinaville Hogs" Perhaps the Frosnector was richt. but the g following letter from one of Ash wood's representative citizens and tax payers has a tendency to nail gome of these "facts" in the haad. The letter follows: Editor Crook County Journal: After reading an editorial in the last issue of the AshwooJ Pros pector in regard to making a new county out of Crook and Wasco, I am forced to the conclusion that "forbearance has ceased to be a virtue." and I take this means of enlightening the public generally of the facte in the case. In the first place the Prospector is not published in Ashwood at all and does not express the senti ments of the Ashwood people, but instead is published and edited in Antelope by Max Leuddemann, editor of the Antelope Herald, and whose sympathies and in terests lie entirely with the pro posed new county. And I might add that even the items in the local column of the Ashwood Prospector are sent by phone. It has also been reported that T. S. Hamilton is in favor of the proposed Jefferson county and I take the liberty of saying that Mr. iiamiuon is noi, never was ana doubt if he ever will be in favor of division. Further, in regard to the article "The Prineville Hog," I will say that I am voicing the sentiments of the Ashwood people; that we have never been mistreated by the people f Prineville and we have. been requested by the County Court to make our wants .known, and anything reasonable would be eranted. The only reason that we are not favored with good roads, county bridges, etc., is due to the fact that we have not petitioned for them. By the request of the tax payers of Ashwood district. C. S. McCorkle. Game hunters in the state pro pose to prohibit the sale of game and to tax themselves an annual license fee of 11 each for a fund designed for the enforcement of game laws. There are various aspects of this matter that are worthy of discussion before the Legislature enacts a new law with reference to the protection of game. We might ask, with rea son, at the outset, if there were not law enough on the statute books providing it was to be en forced. The reply is, that it can not be enforced because the state does not supply the necessary funds. The question then arises, is there any warrant for this parsi mony on the part of the state? In other commonwealths, no richer than this, adequate game laws are in force and sufficient money is provided for the employment of aepuues to iook alter tneir exe cution. The cost is comparatively Bmall, at the most a few thousand dollars. Might not Oregon meet the requirements? With regard to the prohibition of sale, it is to be said by the hunters, and by all others for that matter, that this measure would afford the maximum of protection But how about the majority of people who are not hunters and, perchance, who have no friends that are? Does it not smack a little of class legislation that they should be deprived entirely of the privilege of eating a wild duck, goose or pheasant in the season? Would it not make of the game interests of the state a matter that concerned comparatively few of its inhabitants? On the other hand, the hunter has to urge that, . KotenM at the l'riup viUe rnvt oflic t Siul cls rstos. CROOK COUNTY. it is in the interests of the true sjort that game laws are enacted, citing the prohibition of sale in came of the rarer varieties. He may also insist that inasmuch as he goes after the game he is entitl ed to chief consideration, and if he is permitted to contribute in large part to the law-enforcing fund, it is his right to dictate on what terms the law shall be enact ed. Thus are the two sides of the matter presented. The serious question involveJ is whether any man, aside from him who owns a gun indulges in hunting, has any rights in this game matter that are worthy ot consideration. To all of this the Legislature must pay attention if it would enact a new game law that will be just fair in its effect. Telegram. and Colonel R. C. JuJson, industrial recent of the O. K. A X., does not believe the fair lone will.) re sponsible for the record-breaking immigration into the state next year for the general advertisment the state is receiving now from the Harriman system and from commercial bodies has resulted in a better understanding of the region's resources and climate and the Eastern people who are seek ing better opportunities and a less rigorous climate are thinking of Oregon as they have never done before. California has long been known as the land of perpetual sunshine and the thoughts of the Eastern people have up to this time turned to that state generally instead of to the northwest. Mr. Judson thinks however, that from now on Oregon will receive more attention as indeed the tendency of the past few ears has been towards a greatly increased colonist movement the past two years being esecially productive of new farms and settlement. Additional Locals W. G. Killenbeck was a busi ness visitor from Culver yesterday. J. B. Shipp has the foundation laid for the new residence which he is building on the south side of the city. S. S. Brown was in the city from Haystack Wednesday. He stated that plowing in that section had been delayed owing to the recent cold weather. The Rev.

Hollis was in the city this week from Camp creek. Mr. Hol lis stated that stockmen in that vicinity were gathering beef off the range which is rather an unusual occurrence at this time of the year. C. A. Glover has purchased stock in the People's Co-operative Mercantile company and has taken charge of the store in" this city. Some extensive emprovements are to be made and the general mer chandise stock now carried will be enlarged. The private telephone line con necting O'Neil Bros, office in this city with the Lone Pine Trading company s place of business at Forest was completed this week. The line will be extended soon to the Wm. Davenport ranch on the .Shaniko road.

Miss Steams pass ed in both physiology and geog raphy, seeuriug an average in both studies of !$. W. F. Hammer was in the city this week from Haystack where he says the residents are greatly op posed to county division. He points out the fact that division at this time along the lines proposed would include scores of nontax able homesteads which will pay nothing towards the support of a county for a couple of years. J. E. Calavan this week purchas ed the stock of goods of X. A. Tye t Co. and in a few days will take the active management of the busi ness. He still has two weeks of teaching to complete before taking up his residence in the city. Mr. Calavan will replentish the present stock of goods besides adding other features to the business. Fred Wallace was in the city Tuesday and Wednesday, having come in with the local end of the telephone line which is now practi cally completed between Prineville and Haystack. Mr. Wallace has taken up his residence at Laidlaw, which he says is destined to be come a very thriving metropolis, and will remain there to look after business matters during the present year. Joe Howard returned from San Francisco the first of the week, where he has been looking after the stock markets. He reports the market dull at present, but expects it to open with better prospects in February and March. Still the outlook is not good for feeders of this county. Grass is better in California than it has been for years, and California butchers are already using grass fed beeves. Klamath Falls Re publican. MARRIED. In this city, Wednesday, January 11, Mrs..
