Counties Is AojHdicated

When the bill. which has been In,
troduced In the senate by Senator C
}. Smith. OF umatllla. will have pass,
cd successfully through the course
OF legislation and has received the
signature OF approval from the gov
crn0r, all of the troubles and en-
barrassmonts endured IN the past
by the counties OF Union. Wallowa
aud umatilla will have been put 10
an end and the authorities OF each
county will know the extent ot their
Jurisdiction, which has been merely
a matter of conjecture and mutual
agreement M TO the present time.
The bin is introduced for the pur.
pose of establishing the boundary
line between the trio OF miniature
commouwoalths, which overlap each
other. which has hitherto been known
only as the summit of the Blue
Mountain range" Since the sum.
mit OF the mountains mentioned IS
