"Business men of Oregon will do well to tnko noto of tho Innumerable ounty division bills for the consldora. tlon of tho pooplo next fall. Already eo many division measures hnvo been (Hod with tho secretary of stato that If half of them nro adopted the map of Oregon will bo so chnnged that It will not be recognized oven by a na tive son," declares tho Pendleton East Orcgonlnn In Its Issue of July 25. "Furthermore tho lndlscrlmlnnto creation of now counties cntinot fall to increnso taxntlon. This state can not croato ton now counties nnd pro vldo for ten nddltonnl sots of county officers and hope to got along with present levies. Tho dtvlslonlsts make assorHons to tho contrary. But that is 'campaign' talk. That samo argu ment wns advancod In favor of tho creation of Hood Blvor county. Yet E. A. Schlftlor, a Pendleton tailor who owns property in Hood River, found his taxes increased 01.4 pur cent tho first year of tho now county's oxlst enco. It 'Is tho history of ovcry now. county that division brings on Increas ed taxation. This is only natural. "Another fenturo ot theso division flghtB is tho fact that division meas ures aro sprung whon tho pooplo re siding In tho proposed now countloB do not wnnt division at all. Tako for Instnnco the Orchnrd county schoino. Manifestly the pooplo residing In tho grcntur portion of that proposed coun ty do not wnnt division. Two of tho four towns Included In Orchnrd coun ty aro hotly opposed to tho division Thoy aro Weston nnd Athonn. Thoy hnvo good reason for being opposed. Division will mean Increased taxation nnd that business now hold by Athonn and Woston will bo diverted to Walla Walla. Milton pcoplo iinnglno thoy will got that bustnoss. But thoy won't. Milton is practically a suburb of Wnlla Walla and such it will nl ways romnln. If Orchard county car rios, that business will bo lost to this stato. "Tho Orchard county monsuro was drafted in socrot by a llttlo cllquo of Milton business men. It Is purely a solflsh moasuro. Iloprcsontatlvo men living right in Milton and In Froo wator aro opposed to tho proposition. In communications to this pnpor thoy have so declared tliomsolvos. Evon tho nowBpnpors of Milton nnd Freowa- tor havo failed to take up with tho proposition. Nolthor the Frcowntor Times or tho Milton Eagle advocates tho division moasuro editorially and this fnct has causod much comment. Tho Woston Londor and tho Athena Press havo declared themselves as utterly ojipqscd to division. LET POPULATION INCREA8E. Counties Where Division AalUted too Sparsely Settled. The Prlnovlllo Uovlow slzos up tho Bltuntlon wisely whon It says that tho population in most of tho countlos where county division is being agi tated Is too small and scattering. Mnny ot tho districts aro too spnrsoly settled to permit tho schemo. Resi dents nnd property owners would bo taxed so high that It would mean rulu to a large number. Walt until tho counties havo more people and tho list of taxables warrant county division, advises tho Rovlow as follows: "It would be unwlso to mako any sort of division of Crook County Just now. It is too thinly settled yet In duo courso of time, when tho parent county shall have attained 26,000 or 30,000 and tho list of taxables war rants it, division will be sure to come; It Is inevitable, But It is not business sanity to divldo a county of less than 10,000 souls, and a moment ot sober reflection should convince any ono of this. When tho proper tlmo arrives and a Just county division law is en acted, the three cities most concern ed, Madras, Redmond and Bend, all of which have division schemes in mind, can settle the matter between themselves. But so long as the wholo stato Is required to vote upon a mat ter with which only a small part is even remotely concorned, we would adviso electors to vote an emphatic NO, not only on the Deschutes propo sition, but every other county bill." NE8MITH COUNTY. The Idea of creating Nesmlth coun ty Is commendable, but Is the manner of creating It commendable. It Is hoped that in time a Nesmlth county will be formed, but It should be done In a way that would be approved by him if he wero with us today. Just as well ask tho people of Portland to vote for the county officers ot Lano county, or th,e city officers of Bugene, as to vote to create Nesmlth county and this applies as well to all the pro posed new counties. (Paid advertisement) 1S16 - EVENIN8 EDITION, nfXil VOTE DOWN COUNTY DIVISION SCHEMES V Details Involved in Formation of New Counties Unknown to Voters. Voters cannot Inform thomselves on tho many local details Involved and accordingly it will bo their general decision to voto "No" on tho entire list. Tnls Is tho opinion ot tho Morn ing Oregonlan in its Issue ot Juno 2, as follows: "Nino county division schemes nro bidding for enactment under tho Init iative, In Imitation of Hood River county's success two years ago, and tho end is not yet. Hero is direct leg islation gono to seed and dlssomlnat Ing trouble through tho fair expanse ot Oregon. "Latest Is Dcschutos county, pre senting a petition to tho Bccrotnry ot state and asking to bo carved out or tho northwest part ot Crook county. Umpqua, WIlllnuiB nnd Nesmlth, with overlapping boundaries, seek Inde pendence from Lano and Douglas countlos. Umatilla county Is wrest ling with the ambitious schemes or Orchnrd and Hudson. Clark desires separation from Grant, Otis from Mal heur and Harney. A strip of Cluck amns scoks annexation to Multnomah. "Politicians, offlco-sockors nnd ambi tious llttlo towns aro putting -up thoso county partition schomos. Mora countlos will provide additional of ficial places nnd other patronago. Thoy will uIbo mako higher taxes and moro troublo for property owners. It is reaching a point In Oregon where tno oloctorata will fool obllgod to voto uniformly against all these now counties, Tho voters cannot In form thuinsolvos on the many local details Involved, In ordor to lcgtslnto, thorctaro thoy are likely to tako tho view that their safest action will bo that of voting "No" on tho 'wholo bunch.' " Oreaonlan Comment. Tho Oregonlan cbmmonts gain on tho schomo in its Iibuo of June 28: "A tenth cchomo for county divis ion npponred for Inltlntlvo onactmont noxt Novombor annexation of a ploco of Washington county to Multnomah, Thoso county questions nro proper subjects for legislative attention whoro thoy can bo Btudlod on their merits and bo nmonded and adjustod to suit local needs. Tho groat troublo with tho Inltlntlvo measures Is that each and all of them omnnnto from a spoc lal Intorost. No clomont should ever bo allowed to frame laws regardless ot other olemonts of tho population. Yet that Is what thoy undortako to do when tnoy rofuso to tako tholr bills bulore tho legislature and Insist on enact ug thorn by the 'direct' method. Lawmaking is ono of tho oldest of tho affairs of men nnd ages of exper ience hnvo provod tho superiority of legislation by de'egates Instead of by the mass. Delegated, representative government Is tho most triumphant lesson of history." LET THE COUNTIES DECIDE. Division Should be Settled by People Directly Affected. Tho Eugene Register declares that county dlv.Blou Is a muUyr that should bo settled by the people directly con cerned. In reference to the Issue, that papor says: "With over thirty Initiative petitions to bo voted on nt the geuorul election this fall, the Oregon votor Is In a good doal the same position as nu old Missouri negro who recently took tho civil service examination for a posi tion as Janitor In ono of tho capltol buildings. Ho went up looking pretty chesty, Ho thought that what he did not know about Janltorlng was of very llttlo Importance anyway. When he came away from taking tho examina tion ho was looking so downfallen, that someone asked him what had hap pened, 'Happened I' said he, 'why, boss, dey asked mo things dat hap pened 'fo I'b bo'n.' " "One of the arguments advanced by the county division promoters Is 'More counties and a greater Ore gon.' They claim that division ot the large counties Into smaller ones Is ot the same value to the state that divis ion of the largo farms into smaller tracts Is to tho community. Possibly, But tho question is has tho community at large ony right to Bay whether John Jones, who owns u tract of a thousand acres, shall willy-nilly cut It up rnto small holdings, or does that right lie with John Jones alone. Coun ty division Is a thing to be settled by the people concerned, and not by tl stato at lajgi." "It will be '23' for 11 but about nine ot those 32 initiative measures to be roted on.' a the November election (Paid advertisement) .1 A ' m'Tei REPUBLICAN STATE AND counts: tici$ Rep.
