If subscriber who want their pa pers changed from one place to anoth er would give us the name of the office where the paper is now going as well as the office they wish it changed to, they would save us much trouble. The Weary Nine Minstrel Troupe gave one of their unique entertain ments in this city last Saturday even ing. Owing to various causes there was not a large audience in attendance, but those who were there enjoyed it immensely. Rinehart's bill for another appropri ation of $5,000 on the Pine creek road was reported on unfavorably by the senate committee, und it was laid on the table. The contractors will evi dently have to complete the road ac cording to contract. Any article appearing in this paper not duly'crcdited is written by the edi tor, and he alone is responsible for the 6ame. We mention this so that those who feel agrieved at anything that may appear may know whose hide to take satisfaction out of. The bill incorporating Joseph was passed last week and that town is now a city. We congratulate. Next time you visit Joseph you should go pretty slow and not indulge in any unseemly hilarity, lest tome big policeman With his insignia of office on his lnanlj bosom gather you in. The following named officers of Cove Lodge No. 62 1. O. O. F. were installed by J. B. Thomson, Deputy Grand Master of this district, on Saturday evening last: G. W. Barnes. N. G ; B. T. May, V. G ; George A. Bloom, Sec; P. W. Burford, Treas. Several mem bers of the Union lodge were In atten dance. Wo are informed by Nick Ficklin that there are nine head of Btray cat tle in the Little Cove on the old Law rence place, that, lire starving and will not last many days longer unless some thing is done for them. The owner should look these cattle up and cafe ttt them. If he don't do it, somebody should do it for him, and eetf that he pays for the same. Yesterday wc received the following telegram from Representative McCully. "Bill for three thousand dollars, Wal lowa canyon, passed the house" The bill tb.Ua reduced will no doubt pass tho senate, as it thotitd, McCully has proved himself the right man in the right place, and has done some excel lent work for his constituency, tfhieh will be remembered in the future. The little combination between La Grande and Baker Citv to defeat the Wallowa bill, annex Pii,e creek to Ba ker move the county eat to La Grande and play the devil generally, emnelfow failed to work as it "ougiitef." The Baker people cannot be blamed for trying to better their condition, biU tile action of the La Grande wife jpttltera will mtitt lbi toutelupl of II is reported in Pino Valley that the Couuty court has made an order requiring all road tax in that district to bo applied on thu Pine creek road. That this is false anyone might know, as tho Pine creek road is entirely out side of that district. Wo learn from the commissioner that it is their desire-to have the work applied on the road between Pine and Ragle Valleys, as much a possible, so as to make the road better for teams hauling heavy mining machinery, etc. The bill creating the County of Wallowa passed the Senate on the 8th inst., and only requiros the signature of the Governor to go into efl'ect. It was amended by the House previous to its passage, as follows; The terms of the Circuit Court were made to be held on the third Monday of Maich and thu fourth Monday of August. The terms of the County Court are to be held on tho first Mondays of Jan uary, April, July and September in stead of as stated in the bill, 'l'lie sahirv of the County Judge is fixed at iOO'and that of Treasurer at $100 a year. The Board to determine the valuation of the property of Union county and to iix the amount of the indebtedness to bo assumed by Wal lowa County is the County Court Messrs. Goodall, Chrisman and Hum ble instead of the parties mentioned in the original bill. The bill was also amended so as to provide that the County School Superintcndeht of Un ion County shall apportion the school fund for!8S7 the same as if the county had not been organized Otherwise than as above set forth, thu bill as passed is as printed in our last issue. Cove CulliiisS' February 11th., 1887. C. M. Jamison has been engaged, during the week, in storing a supply of ice for use in his dairy business this summer. Tho frozen necessity is taken from Catherine creek. At the .conclusion of the regular shoot for prizes, last Saturday, by the Cove club, 200 yards off hand, the three leading scores were Alex Coch ran 119, A. J. Hackett 118 and1 S. Bloom 117. In preparation for the masque skating carnival at the hall on Feb. 14th, the skates have been refitted with new wheels. No pains will be spared to make it very enjoyable for all attending. The prize ball held at Goer's hall on the 8th was attended by about sixty couple, and one of the very best of times was had. The first prize of $f was drawn by E. J. Foster; the second by Mr. Cooper of Island City. Mr. John DeHass was seen coming into town, Thursday afternoon, ele vated on a pair of lofty stilts. On some one enquiring the reason for his strange manners, the young man shouted from his dizry height that it was a bov and mother and child doing well. Tho mail about town says that the sleighing lias been tip top all week; that card parties are becoming fash ionable; that drummers are dilligently boring Cove, merchants; that every body is buying his girl a valentine; that the small boy has invented a new kind of tobogganing. A small delegation from the High valley aggregation of noted wielders of antiquated flint lock, llash-in-the-pan, corroded, time-worn, pumpkin slingers of their forefathers put in a modest appearance at the Cove rifle range this week. Having wisely left at home their relics of past centuries, they shot the beautiful, gain twist, modern cart ridge guns of thu Cove team and thereby hit thu target tho most of the time. Don't talk to me, I am papa now. Jno. We concluded not to divide the $5 prize. Jo and A. Put aside that "Love sick" valentine. I have use for it. J. F. And me too. S. What young lady sends her valentines to Union to mail? The coming question : Who are to be school directors and clerk. Did you notice what a decided impression 1 made, at Geer's ball? B. Yes, and I was sailing in the same craft. E. Sonic of the Expenses. Editor Scout i Having promised many of the tax-payers din ing the last term of Circuit court to let them know through the papers the Cost of the tri als ef Vm Bennett and of Rubier, Godfrey and Tibbetti you will please allow me space In your paper for that purpose. The entire expense of the Bennett trial front its inception to the present lime, not including the expenses of jurv, is 2,120.48, niid of the Bobier trial,, $2687,97, It Is not possible to tell just what thu jury on either case costi but the expense of Jury at the last term of court was ?1 ,885.00, nearly all of which was duo to theso two cases, making the entire cost of the two cases fO, 065.'. 45t There may be some small bills allowed yet, but this is practically all the expenses of the two trials Another heavy expense to flic coun ty Is Its roads mid bridges, which since Julv 1st, have cost the coililty 4'J8".24. This has been pretty gener allv distributed throughout the! couu tv," the yVdlldWa having probably more that its share, and the south-eastern part of the county somewhat less than its proportion.

EntTOR Stout: Would you bo so kind as to insert tho following in your valuable paper. In it are embodied tho sentiments of a majority of the tax paying population of Pino Valley : Annexation or division is the topic of the hour. Even tho Canadian fish ery question or the seemingly impen ding European conflict are of no ap parent moment when compared with to us at any rate the more important question, coercion. Arc we a voting population accor ding to tho local newspapers of 069 east of Big creek to bo coerced into annexation with Baker county, by in triguing political tricksters, artfully falsifying the public sentiment? By the Great Mogul at La Grande, or by that somewhat notorious individual at North Powder, or by the wiliucss of the people of Baker City, with these llattering promises of a road down Powder river to Eagle Valley? Wc of thu southeastern portion of Union county have never received jus tice at the flands of Union county; wo have had no representation. The last grand monument of legislative imbe cility the Union and Cornucopia road, or rather imaginary line foisted upon a people who had no desire for it, impracticable, as it was through a country covered at the present wri ting, a great portion of the way witli ten (10) feet of snow, nearly if not quite as impassible as the Cascade range of the Pacific coast or tho Alps of Switzerland at an expense to the State of iflfi.OOO, and to tho county, $2,000. Why was the above named appropriation asked of tho State? To satisfy the demands of a ring of politi cal trickstors and demagoguers, who knew nothing of the country to be traversed by said road, or if knowing their averice got away witli what littlo intelligence a kind providence had granted them. Selfish in every turn, with unplushing egotism which t us of the southeastern portion of the county is nauseous in the extreme. Wc cannot look at in any.other light. You virtually said, we of Union will build you good peoplu of Pino Valley a road which you must help to pay for. We know that it will place this "Great Mart of Trade" nearer to you than Baker City. Wo also know that up in that portion of thu county, you are like the hardy denizens of the Arc tic region thoroughly acclimated, therefore a glazier or an iceberg here' or there to throw in by the way of sce nic effect would bu no detriment. Had our senator from Union county urged and received an appropriation of $15, 000 to bo applied on tho old road lead ing from Union to Pino Valley, making an excellent turnpike of said road, then he would have secured the sup port of every good citizen in this por tion of the county. As it is, he has been to the political tricksturs and old time-servers as plastic clay in the hands of thu potter as putty in the hands of the glazier. As good citizens of Union county let us look at tho othor side. What advantages if any are to bo derived from annexation? It is certainly to our advantage to buy where wo can buy tho cheapest and sell Where wo can sell for the highest price. In fact we may assert that the above is an immutable law. Well, granted that Baker City is at present our nearest trade emporium, is that any reason why Baker City should be our county seat? Generally the reverse is the case. The legislative halls of tho Uni ted States are situated at WiiBhiiigron. Is Washington a trade center? Salem is our seat of government, but Port land has been, -and will bo the com mercial emporium. Wo havo traded in Baker City in years past; We can ilo so now. Are the taxes in Baker county less than in Union? No, thoy are 30 per cent, higher in Baker. Is Baker county's indebtedness leas than Union? No, thirty thousand dollars more. Are the incumbent laW-makers in Baker county more honorablo to theis constituents tlmn those of Union? We think not. The morality of Baker City is not refreshing. A city of 1000 or 2000 inhabitants'-' a couhty seat with halls of justice, where confidenco men and thugs have strangled justice and tossed her in the gutter. Whero but yesterday a prominent and respec ted citisen, an old man With thrco score years and ten resting Upon his Vener able head, Was foully murdered in tho street by a lawyer of that city, and a miserable accomplice, who on tho day of their acquittal was married to a coUrtesan. Where u fcW of tho best citizens organized and formed a com mittee of public Bttfety. No benefits call etitely be derived from such assO aiations. Baker City sends very flattering pro posals to us and intimates that in event of annexation she Will assist in building a good road down Powder river to Eagle Valleyj Bah I on such promises. Baker has had 00 percent, of tho oUtsida trade of this valley for the past ten years. Had tho hllsihess melt of Baker done justice to their ctlstomcJH they Would lidvo years ago btiilt a good rbad doWn the sbtith of liaker county side of PoWder river to Eagle Valley. Wc do hot propose to bo gulled by fair promises any longer. Wo wili deiiiaiid fair representation from Union in the future, and Wo think that it is better to shuro thu ills we have than to ily to others Wo know not of. We consider that this county has a bright futuro before it, atld by treating us In a just nianttcr Wo are willing and desirous of staying in old Uriiou county.
