DIVIDE
T
LONG CREEK PEOPLE
WANT A NEW COUNTY.
County Dlvhion Organization Started
and an Active Campaign Opened
Mil for DIviHlon to lie Presented to
tho Coming gcmlon of tlio legisla
ture Clmrlefl Conner President of
Now Organization, and T. F. llnll
Secretary.
An active movement to divide Grant
county has been started at Long Creek
where a public meeting was held last
Saturday and a county division or
ganization launched. The Long Creek
Ranger says of the movement:
There was an enthusiastic county
dlvlslorumeotlng held In Long Creek
Saturd;w. and what Is likely to prove
an Initiative movement wag started.
Owing to the short time In which the
notice of the meeting was given It was
Impossible for many of the Hamilton
and Monument people to nttend and
this short notice was given, not to
leave any one out, but because It was
felt something should be done with
out delay.
An organization was perfected.
William K. Weir was made chairman
of tho meeting, and T. F. Hall sec
retary. A discussion of the question
was the order of the program for
about a half hour. The town hall was
well filled with citizens of all the
northern part of Grant. Enthusias
tic speeches were made by T. F. Hall,
J. U. Jackson, William Chapman,
Frank Kahler and Charles A. Coe. It
developed In tho course of the meet
ing that no one was there who was
not In favor of county division and at
frequent Intervals during the discus
sion there was applause and stamping
of the feet.
Charles Conger was elected presi
dent of the county division association
and T. F. Hall was made secretary
treasurer, '
Within tho next two weeks It Is
probable meetings will be held all
over this side of the county. Word
has been received of a meeting to be
held at Monument on Saturday, De
cember 22.
To Become Part oT linker.
The Baker City Herald says of an
other movement to add the Greenhorn
mining district to Baker county:
The Greenhorn mining district will
be a part of Baker county. If a move
ment put on foot by the owners of
the mining properties, and by the
men of that district Is a success.
John Thomsen, manager of the Red
Boy mine, and the Olive Lake power
plant, Is In Baker today putting the
project on Its feet. Mr. Thomsen de
clares unless some opposition is met
from the people of Baker City, that
beyond question the next year will
see that valuable mining district a
part of Baker county.
The movement Is fathered by him
and has for Its support the united ef
forts of the mine owners and the min
ers of the district. Mr. Thomsen says
that Grant county will be willing to
get rid of the Greenhorn country, and
so far he has met no objection In
Baker county to the plan.
The advantage of the plan lies In
the fact that the mining Interests all
center In Baker county and not in
Grant. The mining men and miners
all transact business with Baker and
oppose going over to Canyon City for
county affairs. They prefer looking
after such business while they are In
Baker.
David Curtis, the half-witted news
boy held at Duyton, O., for the mur
der of Dona Gflmnn, was discharged
at the preliminary examination, the
court holding that the prosecution
failed to show why he should be held.
