Proclamation Blfrned at 6:50 Ijuit Kvenlng In I'reM-nce of Forbew, Putnam and DeArtnond No Contest Expected. SALEM, Ore., December 14 (Special.) At 6:50 last night Gov ernor Withycombe signed the proc lamation declaring Deschutes coun ty to have been formed by the vote of the people at the November elec tion. The last official act preceding the formation of the new county took place when Deputy Secretary of State Sam A. Kozer bad canvas-; ed the vote in the governor's pres ence. Beside Mr. Kozer there were present at the time the proclama tion was signed, G. P. Putnam, sec retary to the governor, Vernon A. Forbes and H. H. De Armond, all of Bend. As soon as the governor" had placed his signature on the official proclamation he said "Extend my congratulations -to the people of Deschutes county. Good luck to them." Then turning, he shook hands with Mr. De Armond, calling him "Mr. District Attorney." The appointment of the county court of Deschutes is due to be made in a few days and immediately af ter qualifying the members meet and the new county government ex ists. The court then appoints the other officers. On the third Monday of the sixth month after the proc lamation is issued the courts of the old and the new counties meet In Joint session and determine dpc ; the settlement of funds between the two. .. . .... , Both Messrs. Forbes and De Ar mond -declare-that "the "chances: are now remote for further legal com-; plications in connection with the formation of the county. In this opinion prominent attorneys In both Salem and Portland agree. Accord ing to them there Is an overwhelm ing probability that the creation ot the new county would bo sustained In case any contest is brought. This Is especially true now that the proc lamation Is Issued. Using the idea first suggested by the late J. P. Morgan they say that It is harder to unscramble the new county than to prevent scrambling. In an informal consultation with the attorney general's office this view is sustained.
