Letter of Inquiry
To the Editor of the ObNmr:- ,
It bar been said many time that tbe
eoonty debt of Colon county Is beta
rtdaoed quits - materially, and the
peopia generally are pleared U hear It,
A coonty In debt nearly two hundred
thousand dollar ia In a bad condition.
It ia a very nnfavotab'e eiroancaranee
(or arrangers to consider when they an
deciding whether or wot tbr wiUle
eata bera. ' No coanty baa a right to b
for many years very largely In debt. A
bankrupt county la mock like a bank
rapt individual. Thle-. coanty , ha
baan for many -yeara vary largely la
dbt, and acoording to flgoree recently
published It ia atlll very baaviiy in
cumbtred.'I bear- that Baker and
Umatilla oountlee are really getUag
oat of ' debt quite vapidly. - Union
eoonty tboald la doing likewise. :j Bat
ia abef Ia tbla ooanty really reducing
ts debt materially? When tba Pan.
haudia waa annexed to Baker eoonty.
It was decided that Baker eoonty
erould pay a certain amount of the
debt of tbla coanty. I understand
tbat Baker coanty baa In the past year
paid Its part of the Union: eoonty
debt, and that tba reduction of tba
debt of tbla ooanty In the peat year
consists practically of "whet Baker
county bas paid and tbat this eourty
baa really not reduced tba debt to any
material extent. Is this tba fact?
Taxea bava bean high, and we -really
ought to bave paid off soma ' consider
able part of tba debt, at there has been
bat little expense for oriminal basinets
the past yer. It ' would be quite
gratifying for .tome one ' to ascertain
what tba whole debt, including Interest,
waa a year ago, and what It amounts
to norland show tba amount of the
''ir.Ct'.sn iz L ! luuut came
from with which the redaction waa
effected, it our Coanty Court ia really
making a substantial redaction in the
debt from Union ooanty faade the
people oi'ght to know It, eo that they
can accord proper praise. We bear it
reported from time to time .that the
court ia making a good record; and we
hope that aucb is the case. , On the
other hand, we hear, it said that tba
reduction In the eoonty debt amounts
to jutt about whit Baker 2oanty baa
paid. .. INQUIRES
