At the election in the fall, provide«! the matter in placed on LEO ORDWAV. V O. the ballot, there will la* required for the divinion 66 per cent of J.

A h to exjMTi.we of operating a new county, thin Heemn to he the principal opposition that has been advanced hy tho.se not particu larly fav«*ring it. A fter these have been shown what other coun- ties have la-«tn «loing whose physical conditions are very similar to ours, many of them have come to the conclusion that the propo- siti«m is much better than it at first looked. Take Sherman county for instance: Kgur«*H have l»een secured from the county court of that county to the effect that at the time they cut off from Wasco county, a number of years ago, the tax rate before was 20 mills in that county, and for the last ten years, on an average, the rate has Isstn only 9.6 mills far county purposes, which includes a 3 mill special road tax for the last three years. It is a fact that there will have to be a new set of officers far • he new county, whose expenses will have to be paid, but the ex pense o f this is a small item, when it is shown what the cost of the operation of the present courts in Crook county are, as to mileage and other g«*neral expenses necessary far the operation of counties the area of the present Crook county. The area of the proposed new county is something over a third more than that of Sherman county, while they have a larger amount of taxable property; this is due principally to the land all being proved up on and taxable, while in this section there is a quantity of land that is just filed on and will not come in for taxes far several years yet. This one item alone wi!! materially increase the amount of taxable prop«*rty at the rate of probably $30,000 yearly. As to the location of the county seat, and the erection of the county buildings, will say that as to the farmer, that matter will rest entirely with the county court for a period of two years, after which the new county will vote on the proposition of a permanent location, and during this time it, of course, would not be practicable to erect buildings, but rather to rent a suitable building until the county seat question is definitely settled, after two years. It is expected that delegations from the towns north of the Crooked river, and of the different other organizations, will go to I’rineville at an early date and arrange for a meeting of the rep resentative citizens there far the purpose of agreeing on e«iuitable lines, it is also proposed to endeavor to m«iet with the people of Redmond and Sisters at an early date to see if the proposed lines STATE H tltK A C will be agreeable to them. weather runillllonii from j > » » r i I n Portland anil other pin» <-■. where the M I •• 11 u a river ha* a reputation of be lli« the beat trout atream In Oregon KlahltiR baa been fair for lance Rah for several week« and with a •r few daya of warm weather will on doubt be Rond fur all altea within the law. c i \I. t o i l l » : HK h KHT U M » The Metollua river la each aea- PIIKPAHKD H l OK STATISTI« H Miii berotnlnR better known and more .1 n o t i t i » T«» I I K l.I* T H » M o l T popular auioliR atiRlera atuf pleaaure aeekera all over the Northwest The lotultiR aeaaon blda fair to go far ahead of any prevloua year In (Iri’iton Development New« In l.lne Ihal Ibwly lo llrfuar to t|«l»ove 1>o|11, I(f numb#r, * h o w,|| vU|t this A of liolualrlew, Pa) roll».
