No water! No fire pressure!
Were the exclamations that passed
from one j?ron to another at the
fire Tuesday. These startling
facts were pressed home by the
utter futility of the Prineville
Light & Power Company to furn
ish the city with any kind of fire
protection. The fire was bad
enough, but had the wind been in
any other direction nothing but a
miracle could have saved the
town. Coming from the south
west the sparks and flying ember
were carried toward the Oehoco
bottom and the north part of town.
This was the only direction in
which the fire could spread with
out endangering the whole city.
As it was it took heroic efforts on
the part of the people living across
the Oehoco to keep their property
from burning up. Several fires
started but people were on hand to
put it out Dillon's barn had a
close shave a couple of times.
Now, what are you going to do
about it? You all realize that
some action is urgent and no lime
should be lost in getting together
and agreeing upon a plan. The
old hand engine method beats the
one we have two to one. If the P.
L. fe P. Co. can furnish no better
service let us clean out the old fire
cisterns, connect them with the ir
rigating mains and return to the
primitive bucket brigade and hand
engine.
The total valuation of the tax
able property in Crook county for
1906 is $5,892,317. This is more
than double what it was in 1905.
The two main reasons for such a
phenominal increase are the dif
ferent methods of valuation and
the great increase in patented tim
ber lands. Of course the county
has enjoyed a good steady growth
during this period but this reason
would not be sufficient to account
for such great strides in material
wealth. Besides there are the ex
emptions to be reckoned with in
the 1905 valuation which are all
included in the 1906 totals. The
number of sheep in the county de
clined from 117,644 in 1905 to
110.094 in 1906, a decrease of 7550.
We would advise a careful studv
of the table on first page.
Many new names are being ad
ded to the membership of the
Prineville Athletic Association
The reason for this is not far to
find. Man is by nature a gregari
ous sort of animal that loves the
companionship of kind. This na
tural instinct is fostered and de
veloped to a pre-eminet degree in
our social institution. The good
work of the Prineville Athletic As
sociation will be carried forward
this year more vigorously than
ever.
The Crook county fair dill be in
full swing before the next issue of
the Journal and we will take this
occasion to impress upon every
farmer and cattleman the import
ance of making it representative
of what we can produce. We want
Crook county to make a creditable
showing so that outsiders will go
away impressed with the greatness
of our resources.

Name it Crooked River Valley.
Editor Journal Some time ago
there appeared in your paper an
article from the pen of W. F.
Hammer of Haystack, in the Al
bany Democrat. The undersign
ed has lived many years at the
head of the South Fork of Crooked
river. He has beeen asked to write
to you making some comments
on the article mentioned and in
voking your aid and that of all
good citizens in the proper nam
ing of the valley in which that
river rises. In the cheaper class
of periodicals there are puzxle ad
vertisements. The letters compos
ing the names of eminent persons
and familiar cities are jumbled.
and prixes are offered for the prop
er collocation of these letters so
that the names may be disclosed.
The writer and his neighbors,
who, as Mr. Hammer avers, "hope
that civilization will not overtake
us," have acquired some of that
fine discipline of mind necessarily
resulting from the struggle for
these prizes through long winter
nights and are thus enabled to dis
cover several things in Mr. Ham
mer's letter.
First putting together various
covert allusions we are assured
that by "Remmah Valley, a differ
ent part of Crook county," the
genial gentleman means the valley
referred to above, and nsing the
aforementioned acquired shrewd
ness we find that "Remmah" is
Hammer, and some light falls on
the furtive reluctant condition of
the writer's mind.
My German neighbor said "Yes,
bir, when you turn it round its
converted all right." Another
was reminded of the stealthy porch
climber, this time innocently
enough at the back of the temple
of fame. Another said it was
a back handed swipe at
us for not naming it ourselves.
We have thought of Roosvelt val
ley and Edison valley. These
great men would surely object to
Tlevsoor and Noside. But they do
not know, and could have no heart
burning in the matter. Why then
should not the affable correspon
dent of the Democrat offer us
"Hammer Valley," a noble name,
the ringing insignia of virtuous in
dustry?
But let us get on to the end
My neighliors agree that it be
longs to us who live here to fur
nish the name. We will not have
the meaningless Syrian-sounding
"Remmah," but there is one sug
gested by one of the old-timers
which will easily be agreed upon
It isn't Paradise valley because we
want to keep within limits
Neither is it the one the undersign
ed would have chosen. But be-
r
cause in area it compares favor
ably with all the rest of the canyon
of Crooked river we propose to call
jt Crooked River Valley and we
ask the papers and the friends gen
erally of progressive geography to
refer to it by that name.
