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.

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

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. At soine futnre time

Letter From IMno Vnlloy.
Feb. 7th., 18S7.
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
