THE COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD, OREGON, MONDAY, JANUARY 27, 191 3. EVENING EDITION. 4 HEW COUNTY TO BE FOUGHT Douglas County Officials De clare Scheme Is Wrong Details of Plan. UOSKIUMia, .Inn. 27. In nil likelihood. Douglas County will link her quartet of representatives nt the Stato Legislature to legist to the Inst tho effort being made thore to es tablish n now county out of portions of Douglas and Lane Counties. A bill to create tho county lias been In troduced by Representative Parsons of Lano. County Surveyor Frank Cnln nnd County Assessor l L. Cnlklnu nro today engaged in malt lug n blue print of the Douglns ter ritory Involved to facilitate tho nt curnto compllntlon of tlntn, propara tory to tho efTort Hint will bo mndo by the county to dofent Parsons measure. Sovcn nnd ono half townships In tho northwestern part of Douglas County nro Included In tho bounda ries outlined for tho proposed new county whoso promoters have given It tho nnmo of Sluslaw. The Bouthern boundary beglnB nt n point on the sen const thrco miles north of Onr tllnor nnd extends on n straight lino eastward for four townships. Ile tween these four townships on tho north and tho Lane County border thoro nro threo nnd ti half townships, completing tho total urea wanted for pnrt of the new county. A full de scription of the boundaries In both Lano and Douglns ronow: Territory Involved. Starting on tho Pacllle const nt tho southwest comor of Lano County, thence east along tho present bound ary lino between Lano and Douglas to where It turns north to tho town ship lino between townships 10 and 20, thence east along wild township lino to tho sotithunst corner of town ship 1'.), range 7. theuco mirth till It intersects boundary Hues of the. port of Sluslaw. thenco following Hold boundary of port of Sluslaw, where it intorsects the ensl lino of raiiKu 8, thence north to the north Hue or Lano County, thence west to tho Pa cllle, thenco south to point of be ginning. This will taku In about all of Tslltcoos Luke, Kiddle Creek, Upper Smith Itlvert and tho ninln Sluslaw, Wildcat Creek, Lake Creek from near Triangle Lake, and all tho ter ritory between these mid tho Pael'le. Why Douglas Objects. Tho total assessed valuation of tho Inndii In the proposed new county is about I, noil, 00). Most or tho Douglas County pnrt consists of some of her richest standing timber timl in a region sparsely settled, without any roads worth mentioning mid ni moHt wholly undeveloped. In dis cussing the matter today, County Judgo W'ouncott said: "Douglas County certainly Iiiih a protest coming on this scheme. Tho SlUHlaw County promoters would grab a big body of timber laud to rnlno a great deal of Us tax money, but they propose to tuko It from a region that has no roadH for them to keep up. In other words, they want all the revenue they uui get, but none of the expense "Personally 1 would not object to the formation of a new county that would Include (iardluor and Kvotts burg, where there Is a hltc system of roads to maintain, and If the bound arlcs were formed on straight Hues. The Siusliiw scheme appeurs to me. however, to be merely an effort to get something for nothing." Ourdliicr'N Cliiiuce .Moiiured. The action of the new county pro moters In eliminating Cnrdlner and Htottsburg from the boundaries Is looked upon hero tin mi effort to avoid opposition from those com inuiiltlcH. The town of Florence at the mouth of the Sluslaw River. l.uno County. h to be the temporarily and in all probability the permanent county seat ir the new county Is or ganised, and this would hardly suit tho town of Cardner. which nlo h.is county seat asplratlmitt. It may bo that Cardluer will Join In the light ngnlust Slusjuu County anyway, be cause the organisation of tho pto posed county would destroy the chance of a similar movomeiit In that region for many years to come. The argument from Lane County side is that the country around Florence is so far from the county seat- Eu gene that transaction of business there Is rendered Inconvenient ami expensive. Tho new county bill provides a complement of olllclals at the fol lowing salaries per annum: County Judge, $000; clerk. 1200; sheriff. $1200; treasurer, $000 ; school su perintendent, 1000; two couiuils vlonors, $;t per actual working day.
