In a lengthy editorial In the last
issue Of the Times Bro. Curran goes
on record as an apologist for the
creation Of the Eleventh Judicial
District. He contends that the ad'
ditional term Of court provided for

$500 per year and the new judge

ers of Gillian county but 1852 per
annum. Attention is called to the
fact that Multnomah county pays
$iS73 toward the salaries Of the
new officials and every member Of
the Legislature,with but one excep'
ton, voted for the bill, therefore he
can see no reason why Gillian
county should complain. The fact
that q bill was supported by the
Multnomah county delegation
which compelled the taxpayers Of
their county to pay the sum of
$1873 per annum toward the sup
port of new judge and district at
torney In the counties Of Gillian,
Sherman and Wheeler when it was
apparent to everyone that the Gre
alton Of the new district was who'll

proof that the members from Multi.
nomah received more than an
equivalent from the Senator and
his two children in the lower house

With this state of facts 1t will be
hard to determine how much the
taxes of the three counties have
been increased. Bro. Curran ad-
mits that the tax payers Of Gillian
must pay the 1852 per annum and
there is the additional burden im-
posed by the trades made by the
Senator in securing the passage Of
the bill. The Senator hasn't taken
his constituents into his confidence
as to these trades and 1t would be
asking too much to expect him to
do so. 1t is apparent to the tax
payers of Gillian, however, that il
the new district costs $3.50 it will
be more than they are willing OF
able to pay.
