will have to be accomplished in
the organiratiou : of the new
county. v
The people in-this section of
Crook count- are nearly unani
mous in the opinion that it i
altogether too soon for any
thing of this kind to take place.
This is the most tliickly popu
lated portion, of the proposed
new count v, and, in time, will
be the parr of the county from
which the gieaiest revenue wifl
accrue, but there is practically
no revenue
i for a County organ?
. izatiott frotu this section at
present. The lands here have
3v-xJJ T5eeTria"lton up within the
'i last three years and patents
have been issued for only a
, j Very few paiCels. Most of the
j people who are now here intend
T to stay and grow up with the
j country, and .will in all prob
j ability take advantage of the
eeven year limit allowed. by the
Department of the Interior ink
which to make final proof, so).
that it will
be at -least foHrfj,.lbUant over Inspects of
years from Ihe presflut lime be

Tile boundaries as prapused
by the agitators at Antelope'
and Shahiko were not y har we
in this t-ection want anyway.
Roughly speaking the boun
daries of the new county, as
proposed, Weie Loiit , as fol
lows: Following the south
boundary of Sliernian cohnty
west to the Dikchutes river,
south along th-.; river to the
xnouth of the Mertoles river, ih a
generally easterly direction.'
along the crest of ihe B iw
Mountains to the wes?ern boun
dary of W heeler count', thence
wrth along Wheeler county
nd ihe John Day river to the
joutheast corner of Sherman
county. This would, as can
easily be perceived, leave a
largo portion of the Warm
springs Indian Iteseivation on
tho west side of Ihe De-chute.,'
still in Crook comity; at.d jhe
neraons living time v,Mth busi

point about due west of (Jrizzly

Wheeler county boundary.

would include tho Haystack
country, which naturally goes
together with this section. The

will meet with small encourage

The tune is rfot far distant
when Crook will be split up the.
hack in several directions, with
Bend as the center of one por
tion, Prineville with a small
division now.
Some steps should be taken
by the postal authorities so
that mail from this section will
not have to be held over at
Grizzly for twenty hours, in
order to catch the north-bound
stage for Shaniko. This is a
great inconvenience to the peo
ple here and something should
be done lo relieve matters.
