IIUII UUUII I I Ul ULUUIIU I LU LEGISLATURE WILL BE ASRF.D TO CREATE SUBDIVISION'. Farts of Crook and Klamath to Be Taken for Purpose Result of Irrigation. Development. SAL.EM, Or.. Jan. 16.-Speclal.)-P.eaa- jtistraent of the boundaries of Crook: and Klamath Counties to the end that Deschutes County may be created, will be the subject of another county bill that will be presented to the legislature. The area, of the new county as proposed, sub ject to niCKlitl cations as may be deter- mined Upon ty the interested parties, win include the west 3-8 of Crook County. That part of the county south, of Crooked River on the eaet sld of the Deochutea and tho Alatoles River on the west- side of the Deschutes will constitute the north boundary of the new county. The east boundary would be a lino north and south, about lO miles west of FTlneville. Tlie SOUtll boundary would be the south line- of township 26 south extending" four 'rows of townships into Klamath and the west boundary will t the summit, of the Cascades, If the limits as defined, in the bill, that has been prepared, are not i- turbed. The area thus enclosed includes about S300 square miles with a population of 1GOO. The property included represents a tax- able value of about Q00. The object In going into Klamath County to get a part of the area, say the promoters ot the new county. Is not to get additional taxable property or population sufficient to warrant a new county, but tfl Include the Deachutes water shed and slope, both for the purposes of lrrlstatlon and lumber ing. This feature of the case Is governed by gravitation, the water flowing down- hill from its source to th irrigation, dis tricts, while the lumber naturally -is con veyed down these hills for manufacture ana th market. These are the predomi nant Interests' of this flection. Another object In fixing the boundaries .of tbe proposed new county as they have been, suggested Is to get the source and disposition Of the water power o6 the Deschutes under one political jurlsdle- tion. Bend, being the only incorporated? town In the area Included In the pro posed Boundaries, la suggested, as the tern- porary county seat or the county that ta to be created. SOuth. of the boundaries suggested, the slope is towards Klamatli, to which s-o- tfon the Interest of th section just be- yond the boundaries suggested tor Des- chutes County naturally belong" and are attached. As a further claim to " the favorable action Of the Legislature In creating Dea chutes County, friends' of the bill refw resent .that the taxable value of the pro posed new county far exceeds that of entire Crook; County when it was created and at this day exceeds that ot curry, Lake. Wheeler. Harney and Sherman combined- The Interests calllna: for the new county, they assert, are the new settlers and the new development that COSTLY PRESSURE Brart Jierrw Fu o coiree. A. resident of a great western state puts the case regarding stimulants with a comprehensive brevity that is admirable. He says: "T am 66 years old and have had con siderable experience with stimulants. They are all alike a mortgage on re served energy at ruinous, interest as the whip stimulates but does not strengthen the horse, so do stimulants act upon the human system. Fteeltng this way, I gave up coffee and ail other stimulants and began the use of Postum Food coffee some months ago. The beneficial results have been apparent from the first. The rheumatism that I used to suffer from has left me, I sleep sounder, my nerves are steadier and my brain clearer. And I bear testimony also to the food value of Postum something that is lacking in coffee." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich. There's a reason.

They are prepared further to show that five years ago the taxable value of that part of 'this area, located in Crook County, was $83,000. The tax roll of 190 shows the actual assessable valuation of the same area to be $2,900,000. It is largely on this 'remarkable showing of the growth and development of the sec tion within the period stated that the people of - that district will ask for recognition in the creation ot a county in which they will enjoy a community of in- te rests that is now distributed. It is claimed that the readjustment of the county lines of several of the large counties in the eastern part of the state Is a condition essential to the satisfac tory growth and development of the state. The bill will not come before the Legis lature without opposition, but the advo cates of the new county believe they are entitled to what they are asking and will make an earnest fight, backed up by facts and figures they feel confident will put to flight any objections that may be offered.
