The following is taken from report
In the Portland Telegram of the pro-
ceedings Of the house committee on
counties one evening of last week.
The interests of prospective Cascade
county were represented by Andrew
Allen Jayne OF Hood River, A. NJ.
Kelsey and G, l.. Gilbert.
The programme opened by the read.
ing of the bill by Herr Lueddemann,
after which Henry Hahn, of Portland,
who has some livestock interests in
10Th Crook and Wasco counties, took
the floor and gave vent to little
speach, the burden OF which was that
1t was necessary from his standpoint
to make an occasional trip to the county
seat, in which event he was obliged
ever and anon to go to Prineville and
then to The Dalles.
Fred Wilson, Deputy District Attor-
ney of The Dalles, spoke for the new
county, and among other things said
1t cost Wasco county too much to
bring witnesses all the way from Ante
lope in criminalr leases, of which there
were many. He was cross.examined
by Jayne, who asked him if 1t was
not fact that the object of The Dalles |
was to let Antelope take care of itself |
and by letting go Of It, to keep Cascade |
at home, whereupon Mr.. Wilson broke |
down and confessed that he had heard |
OF such talk.
John Newton Burgess took the floor
and explained some things. He dwelt |
on the topography and showed where
figured in the subject. All |
the country involved was tributary to
Antelope, John Newton Burgess said, |
and that should be the county seat. 1t |
was q four days trip from Antelope to
The Dalles.
II. &. Rooper spoke similarly and |
gave 1t to be understood that John New.
ton Burgess sentiments were his senti. |
ments, Judge Willis Ada!r Bell voiced |
volumes against the ideal and Timothy |
Brownhill subsidized into the small OF |
his back; Others piped in voices still |
and small, after which the county com.
mittee and those thereunto attending,
filed down stairs to load up for the next |
round.
1t is understood that Nesmith, not
Jefferson, will be the name of the new
county, in case it will be created,

GREAT STORM LEFT DEATH
AND DESTRUCTION IT WAKE

Chicago Nov 29-The storm on the
upper lakes, which brought death to
eleven known dead and wrought I'M
told havoc among sailing craft. has
almost subsidized tonight and the work
of rescue and relief to numerous yes
sells left stranded on the rocks is
beng carried on with the utmost
v gor. Up to midnight eight vessels,
representing total cost of $4,000
had been reported total wrecks with
out any chance whatever of being
saved and there are still a dozen or
more vessels the whereabouts OF
which is unknown and which may
have to be classed among the list Of
vessels totally destroyed, when finally
located.
At least a score of vessels have been
reported stranded but since the abate-
ment of the hurricane. it is believed
a majority of these boats will be
saved. Up to the present time the total
loss to shipping caused by the storm
is estimated at s1,5)0,0)0. Add tions
are bound to be made to this loss and
when the final returns are in the
figures will be in all probability at
least 100000.
