With the assertions wholly disproved that, there will be additional taxes, bonds to retire and untold bur dens for the new settlers, it will be interesting to note what new ob jections will be raieed by these pe dantic sheets against the erection of a building for the protection of their interests. The iiulletin prays aloud that the county court will not sacrifice its dignity by violat ing the state statute.- in its feverish haste to burden the county with additional taxes, and the l'ioneer likewise sweats in the stomach in apprehension lest the new court house proposition is a twilight scheme stuck up on four wheels and shoved over a railroad. To all of which a calm inspection turns such insipid arguments and asser tions, into substances for laughter. The county court is not going to order the erection of a new court house unless it is wanted by the taxpayers, a niajorily of them, and those who pay the largest amounts. It would le impossible to do other wise without remedial action and protest from the right ijuarter. Again, if a new court house is built, which is a matter problematical ut present, it will be built in strict ac cordance with the plans and speci fications and as economically as possible. There'll be no jobbing, no railroading, no additional taxa tion, no warrants, no bonds, no indebtedness accruing as a result. If there is to be surely those who foot the bills will have the right to enter objection. And even if these conditions should rule, the new settlers would not suiter from ad ditional expenses. Very, very few of them appear on the assessment roll ami according to the assessor it is not likely that many of them I will for some vears to come. Sol they would receive all the benefit and suffer none of the agonies of I tax burdened living, so pielur-j esquely painted by the able pens! at work on the papers mentioned. Then again, no one familiar! with conditions denies that a new! courthouse is needed. Thestrue-j ture now in use is far too are not likely to suffer from the j heal this summer through over J crowding. ! In opposition to the promised initiative and referendum ietition for the state to purchase the Har low road over the Cascades, comes the report that the promoters of the proposition have an option on the road until after the June elec tion for Ir'HOOO. If the state should be the purchaser of the route for the proponed sum of 124 000, the option holders will reimburse themselves .tlC.OOO worth for their trouble in working the gra't on the! slate. Even vvilh 1 1 it: alleged graft! eliminated, the proposition on the! face of il does not look good, j 'I-1 . . i I Here are numerous oilier avenues in which the state treasury can spend its surplus to better ad vantage than in the purchase of a road running through a forest re serve of benefit only to one small seel ion. The Madras l'ioneer, in a lame attempt to bolster up its "railroad" argument concerning the building of a new county court house, says The Journal is paid sf.iOO annually for publishing the county court proceedings and accuses this paper of neglecting to do that for the January term. If the Pioneer will take the trouble to look into the matter it will find that the con tract for publishing the proceed ings was noi mane wnn tins paper until the March, l'.lOli, term of the court. Consequently the January business was not published. The May session of the court is not as yet finished, but so far as it has been, the l'ioneer will find a record of the proceedings in this issue, atul subsequent issues will contain a record of the business transacted according to contract. FOUR DAYS' CELEBRATION uver 4.ti has heen raised tor the four days' celebration and baseball tournament which is to be held in l'rineviile from July 1 to July 4, and this sum will be in creased to ifliOO before the end of the weeK. It is impossible at this time to Crook county outgrew these quar ters two years ami more ago, and the county business which is rap J idly increasing with the new set-i tlement does not simplify the crowded conditions. Only two of the county oll'icers have ollice rooms in the building at present, 1 and records and county business cannot be systematized or handled , expeditiously muter these circum stances. There are adoen other reasons to he advanced for the erection of a new building, but they are patent to everyone. Duly one other question needs be solved in the event of the erection ot a new building the location. This will be left, to a choice between Bend and Madras unless one or the other should happen to offer some good reason why it should be located at the county seat. j i give a detailed program of the jevents which the various commit- tees will arrange, and probably I not before next week will there be made an attempt to publish a pro gram. The baseball tournament will j cover lour days, probably with two games a day, and the celebration itselt will include a long list of races, trap shooting, and other ! events similar to those given hint i year with the exception that never I al days instead of one will be given . over to general spurts. As soon as the balance of the subscription money has leen rais ed, committees will begin tbr ar rangements of the details and im nouiu'einent made as soon there after as possible. The baseball purses will be large enough to in duce outside teams to contest dur ing the tournament and will in sure the best variety of amateur ball. As many county teams as possible will be asked to partici pate, but the tournament will he open to any and all teams that wish to enter.
