PROPOSED
OF UNION COUNTY
Map showing Union oonnty and pro
posed new county (within the heavy
lines) with Union as the oonnty seat.
The question of the organization of
a new oounty out of that part of Union
county directly tributary to the oity
of Union, is being diaausseu by many
of our taxpayers, and the above map
shows an outline of the territory it is
proposed to embrace in the new oounty.
Still another suggestion Is the .at
tachment of this portion ot Union
county to liaker county
These propositions are quite likely
to materialize into something tangible
about the next session of the legists?
ture.
In the meantime, the taxpayer might
do well to post op on the faots ot the
oase. '
ThlB new county would include
about twenty townships, less than one
third the present area ot the county,
which oontains about 70 townships.
This new oounty would have mure ter
ritory than Sheiman, Columbia or
Polk counties, which contain about 19
townships each ; more than V amhill,
whioh has about 18 townships; the
same as Washington, whioh has about
twenty townships; and nearly twice
that of Multnomah, whioh has about
11 townships. So the new oounty
would have enough territory.
As to tbe vote and . population, the
following figures tell the story. The
vote at tbe June election in tbe pro
posed oounty etood as follows: Union
No. 1, 280; Union No. 2, 241; Cove
229; North Powder, 105; Antelipe,23;
and Big Creek, 43, a total of 981 votes
As there were cast in Union oounty at
said election 3.738 votes, it will be
seen that tbe uw county has only
little more than one-fourth ot the votes
and population; yet by a comparison
with the vote of last June, the new

connty would have more votes than
the following Oregon oountles, to wit :
Carrey, with 672 votes; Gilliam 863
votes; Harney, 90S votes; Lake 783;
Llnouln 968, and Wheeler 820 votes.
Other counties with about tbe same
nu nber of votes, as the new oonnty
would have, are Klamath with 1,504,
Molheur 1,287, Sherman with 1,022,
and Tillamook with 1,102, These
counties, though the population Is not
yet large, are prosperous and progress
ive, as ,would be tbe new oounty here.
The new oounty would embrace all of
road districts numbered 23 to 33, both
inclusive, and Unioj and North Powder
with total assessable property valued
at 1,300,035, and parta of districts
numbered 11, 12, 13, and 34, which
have taxable property valued at $601,-
213; so the new oonnty would have
probably no less than 11,500,000 of tax
able property at present valuations
Would this bo sufficient to maintain
the new oounty? A comparison with
other Oregon counties should answer
the question. The following counties
have approximately the same amount
oi property, or less than tbe new oounty
would have, the figures beii g taken
from the 1'.'03 rolls, to-wit: Columbia
1,822,832; Crook $723,428; Grant
739,717; Josephine 11,800,606; Lake
91,74047; Lincoln 8943,804; Wallowa
11,761,121; Wheeler $1,125,350, bo the
new county would have nothing to
fear from that standpoint. With an
eoonomioal adminietratlon, those best
posted on the situation insist that the
new county iould maintain itsgoyern
ment and wipe out its debt.
The above facts are published for the
infot mation of the general public, and
will be continued from time to time,
Tbe impression prevails that tbe
new oounty' Idea may take definite
shape a little later in the season
