OFFICIAL PAPER OF CROOK COUNTY.
THURSDAY, MAY II, 1905.
"Editor The Journal: There
are several places in Crook county
along the streams used for irriga
tion purposes and in which trout
and othet fish abound, where the
intakes to the irrigation ditches
leading away from the stream are
not protected by screens or other
means to prevent fish from swim
ming in the laterals and finally
meeting death when they reach
the open ground. Wouldn't it be
advisable in the face of thought
lessness of this character which if
persisted in will suiely denude the
streams of their fish, to take some
eteps towards remedying the evil?
Crook county is famed far and
wide for its magnificent trout
streams, and it seems a pity that
pure carelessness should result
even in a small way in reducing
ita enviable reputation which is a
source of pride to every lover of
sport. Would the county court be
susceptible to a petition asking for
the enforcement of stringent
measures in a matter of this kind?
"A Fisherman."
The matter of protecting intakes
referred to above is one which does
ndt necessarily have to be looked
. after by any other than the deputy
fish and game warden in the dis
trict effected. The state laws
governing intakes to irrigation
ditches are strict in all their pro
visions and cover fully any such
transgression as noted. Note the
following section from the Oregon
statutes:
"Seetion 2064. Any person or
persons, corporation or corpora
tions, owning, in whole or in part,
er l-ing, operating, or having in
the train is several hours late at
Shaniko. And the rule has the
advantage of working both ways,
for all mail from the South reaches
Shaniko on one night and remains
there until the next evening if it
is to be carried on the Mitchell
stage. Hut this delay of - I hours
in the mail service between points
South and the big territory East
of here, are nothing as compared
with the saving of half an hour in
the delivery of crop bulletins and
Weather Bureau reports at Prine
ville. Ante'.ojie Herald.
Kansas has stopped bleeding
long enough to announce a scheme
whereby it hopes to attract many
single women to that state, and
the inducement held out is that
enter upon the state of matrimony.
There is considerable unoccupied
land in the southwestern corner of
that commonwealth and the pro
position is to give to any single
woman in the east who will accept
it and live on it, a good sized tract,
and the intimation is that single
blessedness with a farm attached
will speedly bring plenty of suit
ors. Of course this land is not
just now very arable, but the real
estate agents say that irrigation
plans are on foot which when com
pleted will make all that region
blossom like a rose. A general
exodus of unmarried women from
the eastern states expected by the
enterprising Kansans. Kx.

A stranger in Antelope the other
day, on his way out of Bend, cir
culated the report that the big ir

a failure, and that 700 people left

course no one believed him, and

in just snch irresponsible sources.

The change in the Shaniko
Frinevule mail route, omitting
Antelope, was made on Monday,
and the stage now goes by way of
Cow Canyon. The Mitchell mail
route has been extended to Shani
ko, and the mail for Antelope and
other points distributed through
this office, now comas on Mitch
ell Btage. the new schedule gets
mail intoPrineville and way points
about half an hour earlier, and
thia wonderful saving of time has
called forth volumes from the Sec
ond Assistant Postmaster General
in explanation of the necessity of
the change in the interest of good
Bervice. Probably there will be a
flag raised at Prineville, because
they get their mail a half an hour
earlier; and there should be a bon
fire built at Shaniko, to celebrate
the fact that the mail from Prine
ville reaches there at 1:30 in the
morning instead of half an hour
later. It does not seem to be of
much moment, that all mail from
Fossil, Canyon City, Mitchell,
Ashwood and this place, going
South from Shaniko, reaches
Shaniko one evening and lays over
until the next evening before pro
ceeding on its journey. This mail
all goes on the Mitchell stage,
which reaches Shaniko in the
evening after the Prineville stage
