Development during the pnBt thirty days make It Imperative that I sever my connection with the "Crook County Journal". My pri vate affairs have assumed such pro portions and became of such Im portance to me personally, that it becomes necessary to either lay aside the work of the paper or resign as county judge.. The siate road program is, I be lieve, the most important matter , ;he county court, and' ! ' . ;..rgt amount of tue work , tit ' therewith falls to the lot . u.e county judge. I have my whole heart set upon a successful termination of this program; it re quires someone on the job every day, j without the assistance of the State' Highway Commission absolutely no-j thing can be done. I was elected j county judge with the understanding ' that I would give so much of my time as might be necessarw to fur ther the interests of the county In all matters and, especially did I pledge myself to the people on the state road program. The people of the county have twice, by their votes, approved that program and the work that wag being done. Under all the circumstances I do not feel that I would be justified in giving up the work as county judge even though it calls for considerable sacrifice from a personal viewpoint. Either I must do this or give, up the newspaper work. There is a limit to the possibilities of any man as to time and energy, and viewing the matter as I do, I have decided to take this step, and I have not done o without eareful deliberation and In so doing I am laying aside my personal feelings in the matter. A man owes a duty to his family and to the community in which he lives, and these duties come before personal, interests or personal feel ing. In taking the step I am tak ing, I feel that I am fulfilling both these requirementa. I am sure that the interests of the community can be best served by me at this time by severing my connections with the pa per and at the same time I can better take care of my private affairs. N. G.

All citizens of the United States who meet he requirements, both OLD TIME MERCHANT OF PRINEVILLE HERE P. B. Davis was in Prineville Tues day on a business trip. He has dis posed of his interests in the store which he has been conducting In Sisters, and is closing np hi busi ness so that he may move to Curry county. Mr. Davis says that there are too many people in this part of the coun try, and that he can't possibly get acquainted with even a small share of them, and that is why he la going to move to the county that ha the least population of any in Oregon. In the day when Crook county was intact, and Prineville waa the trading center for all the Central Oregon country, Mr. Davi had store in this place, and he claim that in those day he knew nearly every man, woman and child in the entire county. He is well known to all the old timer in thi country. Mr. Davi stated that the Sisters country had a freeze in August, which did a great deal of damage, as it seriously hurt the sunflower crop and nipped the potatoes. EAST LAKE HOME OP MANT BIO TROUT, BAT ANGLERS. About fifty mile south of Prine ville and a little west. East Lake and Paulina Lake afford some of the best fishing for large game trout to be found in the west. Some exceptional catches have been made there during recent week by Prineville people, several (pend ing the week end there with good re sults. A party of Portland anglers, ac- cording to the "Telegram", made large catch in a five-day slay, and proof of the story was furnished in a cut showing a number of the big fellows. The "Telegram" atory follow: Trout, oodles of them, weighing from one and a halt to thirteen pounds each, were taken from East lake in Central Oregon, by N. M. Whiting, employee of the Portland Telegram, and Leo Bouchet, grocer. In a week' outing. To be exact, they caught seventy five fish, Including redstdes, eastern brook, silverside and steelhead, and all of them were hooked on a No. 4 spinner. "It was the greatest fishing trip ot my experience," said Whiting today, "and East lake afford the beat (port of any place I have ever visited. It is a landlocked lake ot volcanic ori gin, SOI miles from Portland, and torty-seveu miles southeast of Bend. We were on the lake five day, and each day we caught all the fish thnt we could handle. It certainly was 8one sport to hook one of those big ones and land him." In making the trip, the two Port- landers went over the Columbia Kt-I er Highway to The Dalles, thence through Dufur, Tygh Valley, Wapiti itia Warm Spring Indian Reserva tion, Mecca Madras Redmond and Rend. From the latter place they took the high desert road to the lake, which is located in the Paulina mountains. One day while on the lake It rain ed, then snowed, but while it was snowing the fish took the spiner as eagerly as on a clear day. On the day before they left the lake Irving S. Cobb, humorist, lec turer and sportsman, accompanied by Dr. Roberts, of New York, and A. A. Whisnaut, publisher of a Bend newspaper arrived. The Cobb party bad forgotten their fishing tackle and the two Portlander gave them an outfit, and on the first day Cobb landed ten beauties. One of the attractive feature at the lake, according to Whiting, I the hot Bulphur spring and bath. Commenting on the situation the "Bend Bulletin" of September 20. ay:- For late season fishing. East Lake is proving one "of the best, it not the best, in Central Oregon, and for the past week anglers visiting the New berry crater bsva returned with creels, boxes and some with bar rel filled with big redstde. silver skies and eastern brook trout Good results are obtained by trolling, the fish striking at the spinner regard less of lack of bait, but equally big catches were being made yesterday by Walton who cait either with a weighted spoon or with flie from the shore. Few fishermen who spent the day at the lake failed to get the limit. ' CHAPMAN, formerly Franeea M. Street, ef i Boa 411. Bend. Oregon, who en Sept. 10. If". .tad Ho.oted Entry.
