Ashwood's opinion, wliir.h is advanced from Antelope gratu itously, is the cry for help in the death struggle to get something for nothing. Antelope probably appre ciates the fact that in getting the northern portion of Crook county as the backbone and sinew of the proposed Jefferson county she would have all that could be asked or wished for. She knows, loo, that inside of the nxt two years with her own section at a standstill ju5 regards the development and northern Crook forging ttiiead with rapid strides, tho re would be abso lutely no chance for to secure the county seat of a new county within her own boundaries. That is probably where the 1 ub is doing the most damage at the present lime. Antelope has a distiict surrounding her which is jractically worthless to her self or an' other distiict. No railroad will ever enter her gates auditis these points which bring clearly before her eyes the hopelessness of a future effort, that are now egging her ou to a consummation, if possible, of her unfeasible schemes. Antelope and her tributary district by all rights and Titles of physical contour belong to Sherman county, but no thought has ever been .given to that side of the matter. Instead it has turned, like a boy crying for his lost home, to the project of launching a new count' with Antelope as the center of affairs politicalaud otherwise. Aute lope knows that.Sherman county wouldn't have her distiict as a gift and she is a!sn painfully aware of the fact that The Dalles and other portions of Wasco count7 are making an effort to get rid of her to the best advan tage. And Antelope in turn is far sighted enough to know that unless she reaches the goal this year she will be shoved to the back ground for all time to come. On the other hand, Prineville, or any other portion of Crook county, is not adverse to county division and the establishment tf a new count' seat, but it wants that division to be made along feasible lines and the county seat established at the fight time a few years hence and in a place where it will prove satiefactoiy to all concerned as it would not be if Antelope now claimed it.

OP When he asked what to do when he had no grounds for an argument a young lawyer was told to "abuse the fellow on the other sloe," That is practically where Antelope stands In liereflbrt to pecure a portion of Crook county, together with a Bllce bf Wasco that portion, by the way, which Wasco Is glad to be rid of out of which site hopes to create the new County of Jefferson. The Antelope Herald and ABbwood Prospector, hut especially the Pros pector, which Is owned, edited and printed by Max Lueddemann, of and in Antelope, are very loud In their efforts to gain their point. "V.o ure informed that the majority of th6 people living near Aehwood are not in favor of a new county at this time.
