FIGURES DO NOT LIE
County Finances Can Not
Stand Extra Expense.
HCONOAY WILL BE NEEDED
An examination of Treasurer' Books
Shows that Tliore Arc No Moneys
for a New Court House.
The old proverb that figures do
not lie must sometimes be taken
with a certain degree of doubt. Re
cent exposures regarding new court
house matters show that figures can
be made to convey a most erroneous
Impression when cleverly manip
ulated. That the county's finances
arc in no condition to stand the ex
pense of a new court house has
been clearly demonstrated during
the past week by n thorough exam
ination of the county treasurer's
books. This examination was made
by P. L. Tompkins nnd some of the
facts discovered will be of great in
tercst to the taxpayers. The books
show beyond n shadow of a doubt
that recent glowing statements
made by the Prinevillc papers that
there was $67,000 in the county
treasury and enough money on
band to build a new court house,
had no foundation of truth what
ever and were nothing more or less
than "hot air." Instead of the
county having funds with which to
build a new court house, the man
agement of the next six months
has got to be a very economical one
or there will be a deficit at the end
of the year.
Some of the conditions discovered
by Mr. Tompkins' investigation arc
as follows. The treasurer's books
show the following amounts in the
various funds January 1, 1906:
General fund ,,,.f 6,319 33
Road fund....; ,,., 5,58923
School fund a.iii 15
HiRh school fund , 1,527 33
Total '. f 1 5,446 84
Warrant outstanding against
general fund ,,, 3,135 7
The following Amounts were on
baud July 1, 1906:
General fund ,f 17,981 68
Rob il fund , 13,012 91
School fund ,,,.. 1,923 33
High school fund 3.415 87
Total , . .f 35i333 6S
OutstandiiiK warrants against
general fund , 5,497 76
State tax due Oct. 1, 1906 .... 3,900 00
The Prinevillc Journal came out
a few weeks ago and said there was
$67,000 on hand in the county
treasury. Where did the Journal
get its information for such u state
ment when the county books show
a balance of only $35,332.68? The
court house officials deny having
authorized such a statement. Per
haps the Journal is not in the habit
of getting down to facts before mak
ing its statements. The Journal
said the complaint entered in the
courts against the building of a new
court house "is for the most part a
statement of things unknown." It
begins to look, in view of the star
tling difference between the Jour
nal's statements and the facts as
they are now shown to exist, that the
county's finnuces would remain a
"thing unknown" if the taxpayers
had to rely on the Journal's state
ments for their information. But
perhaps there's hope of better things
from the new editor.
Here nrc some more figures to in
terest tnxpayers:
Dnlaticc on hand in general
fund Jan. i, 1906 ,,,.. 6,319 33
Iucomo from tAxe into geuer
ul fund ,....,, , , 36,336 30

Outstanding warrants against
general fund.., f 3,135 17
Stntc tux 8,125 00
Wurrimts drawn Jan.i to July 1 13,583 64
Total 33,833 81
Leaving n balance in general
fund of., ,,.., f 9,731 72
Last year the runniug expeuses
of the, county, front, July 1 to Decern;
ber 31 were $11,514.45 This year
the county has the extra expense
incurred by the primaries and clec
lion. Last year it required over
$11,000 to meet the expenses otthc
last six months; this year the coun
ty will have something over $9,000,
That looks like a deficit not like a
new court house.
In view of the above facts which
show that on July 1 there were war
rants outstanding against the gen
eral fund (the only fund available
for a new courthouse) 02,125.17,
and that in that fund there was
only $17,981.69, it might be well,
for the edification of the taxpayers,
to quote the following from the
official county paper;
"There is available In the county tress
nry oVer- 567.000, nearly three-fourths of
whicliK'artplicablc to the building of a
new court oiinr, that the county has no
indebtedness; that the erection of a new
court house Will not increase the levy of
taxation; that there is a sufficient sum on
hand for constructing the new building
nnd that the county will not be thrown
into debt in violation of any statute."
Docs it not look as though the
chief purpose of .such a statement
was to mislead an effort by "the
powers behind the throne" atPrine
ville to pull the wool over the tax
payers' eyes. Considering the fore
going condition of the county's
finances, do the taxpayers desire
the erection of an expensive new
court house at this time? It a
court house is built it will hnve to
be paid for by future taxation, not
withstanding statements eminating
from the county scat to the contrary.
HE HAS FAITH.
Yakima Man Sees dreat Future for
Deschutes Country.
F. F. Busey of North Yakima,
Wash., has been spending a part of
the week in Bend and vicinity. To
a Bulletin man Mr. Busey said he
expects to see great advancement in
the Deschutes valley in the future.
He remarked that the man who
bought land here at $10 an acre
was perfectly safe in doing so. To
strengthen such a statement he told
how land in the Kcnewick und
Pasco country sold" fp $25 an acre
when water was firs put pn it three
years ago. To-day that land is sell
ing at from $356 to $500 an acre,
some higher than that. While
climatic conditions and soil differ to
some extent in the Yakima and
Bend countries, yet Mr. Busey, an
experienced Irrigator, said that
farm lands in this region would
experience a most pleasing increase
in the next few years.
In Mr. Busey's judgment apples,
grapes, plums, cherries, currants,
raspberries, strawberries and such
hardy fruits will bear in great
abundance here. B,end people are
confident of thaf for experiments
each year are proving that this is
destined to be a country where
much fruit is grown.
Mr. Busey says that Bend has
the finest location for a town he
has ever seen. With its fine
mountain view, clear, pure water in
the Deschutes, rmlirnited water
power, aud healthful, bracing
climate, he prophes(ed, great
things for Bend when a railroad
opened transportation facilities for
this region.
A PLEASANT EVENlNd-
Christian Endeavors Entertain on Mrs.
A. H. Orant's Pretty Lawn.
Last Friday evening the Chris
tian Endeavor Society gave a most
pleasing social on the lawn of Mrs,
A. H. G rant on Hawthorne aveuue.
The lawn was Illuminated with
Japanese lanterns and made a very
pretty picture. Young girls,

During the evening the following
very pleasingprogram vas rendered:

The evening was a most ideal
one and a large crowd was out to
enjoy the occasion. During the
evening a few fireworks were shot
off to the amusement' of the little
folks. 4T"he social was a very
pleasing event.
CAN NOT LIFT THE UD
Attempt to K1JI Gambling
Ordinance palsf
A1UST STK BE CORRALLED?
New Ordinance Prohibiting Stock from
Running at Largo Arouses Oppo
sition from Cattle Owners.
The ordinance prohibiting gam
bling in Bend is ImYing a restless
existence. Twice in is.r short
life attempts have been made to
repeat ft, but both times the repeal
was vefoed by Mayor Goodwillic.
The efforts to pass the repeal over
the mayoVs veto have ' met with
defeat'. The second and last time
this matter df a repeal came before
the city council was. last Tuesday
evening. At that time a vote was
to be taken on the second attempt
to pass the repeal over the veto.
Previous to the meeting a petition
had been circulated praying that
the mayor's veto be sustained which
received the signatures of more than
a majority of the voters in Bend.
This in connection with other
matters brought to bear on the
question resulted in th 'defeat of
the repeal measure, all,' members of
the council present voting io sus
tain the veto.
The ordinance prohibiting cattle
and horses from running loose on
the streets of Bend was repealed
and another with somewhat more
explicit regulations, was introduced
for the first reading.
. This ordinance is causing con
siderable discussion by those op
posed and in favor of it. Cattle
owners claim that to keep their
cows corralled, with the cost of
feeding them, would place an un
fair burden on their shoulders.
They argue that in a town as new
as Bend, with such a limited past
urage outside of the open range,
such an ordinance ought not to be
seriously considered.
On the other hand, people who
have had gardens wholly or par
tially destroyed by maurnding cat
tle are as insistent in their demands
for the ordinance. They claim,
that hty should not be forced to
build fences and stand the chance
of their property being destroyed
in order to favor the cattle owners.
The cattle owner replies that the.
farmer is obliged to fence his land
to protect his crops and why not
the resident in Bend under present
conditions.
Then, there is the disinterested
class those who possess neither
gardens nor cattle. These have
suggested that the ordinance be
drawn to provide only for the cor
ralling pf stock at night. During
the daytime, if cattle break into a
yard spmc one would be there to
prevent damage, but at night when
all are asleep stock should not be
allowed to run at large.
The councilmeu present at the
Tuesday night meeting were
Sather, Caldwell, Overturf and
West.
