THE OTHER SIDE.
Tho Ashwcotl Prospector
overdid itself Inst week edi
torially in an effort to convince
its public tlint countj' division
was favored generally by the
residents in the vicinity of Ash
wood. Not content with giving
"purported fncts" the Pros
pector advanced tlie assertion
that the only objection against
county uivisom was coining
from the "Prineville Hogs."
Perhaus the Prospector was
Tight, but the following letter
from one of Asliwood'cj repre
sentative citizensand taxpayers
has a tendenc- to nail some of
these ''facts" in the head.
The letter follows:
Editor Crook Count' Journal:
Ater reading an editorial in
the last issue of the Ashwood
Prospector in regard to making
a new count' out of Crook and
Wasco. I am forced to the con
clusion that "forbearance has
ceased to be a virtue," and I take
this means of enlightening the
public generalh' of the facts in
the case.
In the fir&t place the Pros
pector is not published in Ash
wood at all and does not express
the sentiments of the Ashwood
people, but instead is published
and edited in Antelope by Max
Leuddemann, editor of the Ante
lope Herald, and whose sym
pathies and interests lie entirety
with, the proposed new county.
And I might add that even the
items in the local column of the
Ashwood Prospector are sent
by phone.
It. has also been reported thai
T. S. Hamilton is in favor of the
proposed Jefferson county and
I take the liberty of saying that
Mr. Hamilton is not, never was
and I doubt if he ever will be in
favor of division.
Futher,in regard to thearticle,
'The Prineville Hog" I will say
that I am voicing the sentiments
of the Ashwood people; that we
have never been mistreated by
the people of Prineville and we
have been requested by the
County Court to make our wants
known, and an'thing reason
able would be granted. The
only reason that we are not
favored with good roads, county
"bridges, etc., is due to the fact
that we have not petitioned for
them.
By the request of the ta
payers of Ashwood district.
