announced that he will recommend
the establishment of such a route.
In nn interview in the Prinevillc
Review, Mr. Vaillc says In part:
''The fact of the matter it, I can
sec 110 other way out of the tangle
than to recommend that a route be
established between Hcnd and
Heitler. This would have the
effect of placing Prinevillc on a
stub line, but you will get your
mall the same as usual while the
people of the west end, who now
have it legitimate kick coming,
will get theirs in some cncs twen
ty-four bonis earlier."

At the joint installation of the
Woodmen and Royal Neighbors
Tuesday evening tltere was a little
iiitauuderstatidiiiR in the carrying
out of the program. To accommo
date tuuht who arc not in the habit
of attending dance, it had been 1
agreed that there should be no
dancing until after the refreshments
had lieeii served, but through a
hitch in the proceedings this agree
ment was not carried out fully.
Coiikeipiently when the dancing
wak in progreht there were a few
iiresent who did not find pleasure
in that pastime. This explanation
is made 011 request.
The Rev. Walton Skipworth
preached Hit excellent .sermon Tues
day evening. His text was "Hvcry
good gift and every jicrfect gift is
from above and cometh down from
thePathorof lights, with whom is
no variableness, neither shadow of
turning." Our people showed
interest and appreciation, as they
listened with rapt attention to this
eloquent discourse. Ilcud paid
both their elder and pastor in fuil
for the first quarter a good .start
for the building up of the M. K,
church in this place. All credit
due to our people at Hcnd. Victory
is ours. Press on. C. T.
At the quarterly meeting of the
M. H. church held in Hcnd Tues
day evening two new members of
the board of trustee, were elected,
namely S. C. Caldwell and Mrs.
W. I Vnndevert. W. S. Nichol,
Mrs. W, II. Slants nnd George
Vaudcvcrt were chosen as stewards,
while W. S. Nichol was elected as
corresponding nud district steward.
The church has established u new
circuit (o be known as the fiend
circuit and comprising Ileud, Laid
law, Redmond nnd Sisters, with
the Rev. Campbell Tnvenor as
pnstbr. Quarterly conferences will
hereafter be regularly held in Bend.

Under the new ruling the levying
for the road fund i reduced from
3; j mill in 1905 to 1 'J mills for
1906, This makes practically no
allowance for the new roads that
increased development will demand
On the other hand, the county
fund the fund from which the
court house can be built will be
increased from $21,533,52 in 1905
to 17, 138. 45 in ryoG, an increase
of ?25,6i5. That is the way
Prinevillc plans to be beautified
while the roads will suffer an im
provement badly n coded by every
one and especially in Western
Crook.
The Time to Act.
The present move shows a de
termination to cud this glaring rob
lwry whereby Prinevillc is beauti
fied at the expense of the taxpay
ers. Prinevillc papers have here
tofore announced that many build
ings should be erected before the
population increased enough to al
low Western Crook to outvote them
and thus defeat their robbery.
Those days nud methods arc about
ended and everyoue hereabouts
is looking forward to the time
when the people's money will be
spent for the people's good in the
new county about to be born.
