All of the county not ef fected by tho division and oven porta of the territory lying within the boundarloa of the propoaod new coun ty are lining up with tho club to op pooo Katecada'a acheme to carve a now county of of old Clackamaa, with Knarnda aa the county neat. Remonstrance Well Signed. A remonatranre containing over 200 namea waa received here Satur day afternoon. Reaidonta of Kagla Crook filled out tho petition. Mr. Kby attended a meeting of 60 farmara at Colton Friday night and found them oppoaod to the plan. J. W. Rood, R. M. Standiah and Walter Givena, of Estacada, after the futile attempt to aocure the aupport of tho Commercial club committee for th creation of Caacade county, left for homo Saturday night, and it ! ex pected that bill providing for the eo UBllahment of the new county will bo presented in tho house of representa tive early next week. Members of thr. Commercial club committee took tho poaltlon that they had boon inatructed by tho club to fight county dlvlaion and In tho ab sence of other Inatrurtiona, the com mittee would feel that it was obli gated to carry out tho wishes of tho body that created it. In the fight the Commercial club vlll havo tho aid of Senator Walter A. Dlmick, who la member of tho sennte committee on ; counties, to whom tho bill will bo re ferrod if it ever reaches tho sennte County Uncs Called Faulty Oppononte to county division here argue that the linos are improperly drawn, and that if any excuse existed for the division of Clackamns county by carving out ita eastern hnlf, that tho line should run north to Multno mah county. Under the proposed di vision, n handle about four miles wido Is left In Clackamns county, con taining the Boring and Snndy dis trlcte and the Bull Run powor plant. The divlaioniata are full of fight and if they fall to enrry their bill thro ia-h the legislature, then they will endoavor to secure tho enactment of a law changing tho existing method of creating counties under the initia tive, by leaving tho matter solely within the hands of the votors of tho district embraced within the proposed county, and specifying thnt a favor- ablo vote of 65 per cent of those vot ing on tho measuro must be secured. Under tho present law 65 per cent of tha vote cast within the boundaries of tho proposed now county and 35 per cont of that within the part of tho county loft untouched is required be fore new county can bo created. Tho Estacada people say the time is ripe for tho passage of such a meas ure. It la a matter of common report here that reaidonta of the Boring and Sandy dlatricta would not object to being annexed to Multnomah county, although there la no program pre pared to accomplish this object Hstaeada'a Ambitions Blamed. Some of the oldest residents of Clackamas county living at Eagle Creek, including Noah Stingloy and A. D. Burnett are bitterly opposed to a division of the county and aver that there is nothing to the proposition save a desire on tho part of Estacada to become a county seat and a further desire on the part of some of its res idents to secure county offices. It has been suggested that the division would be bettered geographically by running the north and south tine to Multnomah county, but this proceed ing would Invite the opposition of the Boring and Sandy residents and would legislate County Commissioner Proc tor, who lives near Cottrell, out of of fice. Joseph E. Hedges and Livy Stipp talked at a division meeting Friday night in Estecada. C. Schuebel went to the Kruse district Saturday night to address a meeting in opposition to the annexation of the Oswego terri tory to Multnomah county.

Dlmick. of Clack iimns. opened up his old flrht on the Portlanders who maintain duck lakes along the Columblu by introducing s bill to forbid duck baiting.
