TVvThe editor:
Dear Friends:
Scott, Ryan and I would like
to thank all of you for making
the past three years in Hep
pner so happy and rewarding.
We have made so many
friends and have enjoyed
being a part of the commun
ity. We are in Bend now, trying
to get settled in a new home
and a new lifestyle. It takes
some getting used to!
The three of us wish things
had worked out differently, so
we could have rebuilt S & J
Market, but I guess it was
Accurate
To the editor:
During a 15-minute speech I
delivered in The Dalles sub
stantiating and condemning
the intrusion of the Rajneesh
onto the rights of other citi
zens. I made the statement, "I
see no reason why a corporate
cult of red-clad kooks should
be exempt from these state
laws and allowed to run
roughshod over the citizens of
Antelope."
I have been criticized by
Rajneesh defenders for
"name-calling." I feel the
description was accurate:
Corporate: Rajneesh Foun
dation International is a re
gistered 'for profit" corpora
tion with 500 other locations in
the U.S., Canada, Europe,
India, New Zealand and Aus
tralia tnat employs a quarter
million people.
Cult: Random House Dic
tionary defines cult as (Da
particular system of religious
worship, (2) intense devotion
to a person, ideal or thing (3)
such a group or sect bound
together by devotion.
Red-clad: Rajneeshees
wear the color red with pride
to signify that they are fol
lowers of Guru Bhagwun .
Shree Rajneesh. They don't
think it is derogatory so why
should anyone else.
Kook: Defined by Random
Coastline
This letter concerns one of
Oregon's treasured resources,
the Pacific Ocean Coastline.
All know the havoc wreaked
upon Southern California last
winter. The Oregon Coastline
suffered also but was not so
well publicised.
Present weather conditions
cause some Oregon Coastline
residents to wonder about
another winter of equal fero
city. The writer's 34 years of
experience with the Central
Oregon Coastline and its
weather patterns gives him a
"gut" feeling that all is not
well. For example, the alder
leaves are falling weeks be
fore normal, the summer
weather has been limited to
just a few weeks of nice
weather, interspersed with
more than normal rain, and
the birds have left unusually
early .
The summer of 1983 has
been so unusual that the Ore
gon Coastline has not had its
normal time to "heal" the last
winter's ravages. The sand
carried away last winter has
not come back in its usual
pattern and the dune grass has
not recovered so that the
01 EDITOR
time to move on.
We miss all of you very
much and think of you often.
You are all a big part of our
lives and we will never forget
you.
I am still getting misty-eyed
over the beautiful party you
gave for us. That was one of
the most touching times in my
life.
Thank you Heppner,
Love,
Scott, Jeannie and Ryan
Adkisson
P.S. Love to have company.

description
House Dictionary as "an un
usual, peculiar of foolish per
son." Obviously Rajneeshees
are unusual and peculiar to
that specific group and, in my
opinion, they are foolish.
What could be more foolish
than Rajneeshees taking over
the Antelope city gov
v eminent, then voting to im
pose over $1,000 per year in
new taxes on the average
Antelope resident in an effort
to drive them out of their
. homes? Of course informed
people are unhappy with
them. In 1859, John Stewart
Mill wrote that personal free
dom is deserved so long as we
do not deprive others of theirs.
It is foolish of the Rajneeshees
to violate that code we live by
and then accuse the very
people they have harrassed of
"religious bigotry. Religious
beliefs have nothing to do with
the current problems the
Rajneesh have encountered.
Oregonians would be happy to
' leave them alone if they stay
within the law and leave
others alone.
My description was accu
rate and I stand by it.

concern
coming stormy season will,
in effect, be "taking off"
where last year's storms "left
off." Continued onslaught of
storm tides, heavy wind and
rain could easily create as
much or more erosion prob
lems than the 1982-83 winter.
All Oregon residents should
be concerned. In particular,
there should be some concern
by the governmental agencies
who claim responsibility for
the Oregon shores. It would
seem that the least these
agencies could have done is
formulate an "action plan"
for the winter weather ero
sion. At least an instruction
campaign about proved
methods of design and con
struction of ocean front pro
tective structures would have
shown the agencies' willing
ness to assist the Oregon
people.
All Oregon residents have a
stake in the Oregon Coastline.
These residents could create a
positive effect upon the gov
ernmental agencies by voicing
their concern about the pro
tection of this treasure;
