Proposed New County.
The proposed new county of Nes-
mith of which Cottage Grove would
be the county seat, is taken about
equally from territory now parts of
Lane and Douglas counties, the two
largest counties in the state Nes-
mith county is named after United
States Senator James w. Nesmith,
the first man to represent Oregon in
the upper house Of the national con-
gress, a staunch friend of Abraham
Lincoln and loyal supporter of the
cause OF the union. Nesmith county
would have 1910 square miles, while
the average county in Iowa has about
500 square miles of territory. Nes-
NTH would have nearly 10000 pop
ulation when admitted and has now
an assessed valuation of about six
millions, with "A school districts, O.
100 school children and four hun
dred miles OF public roads. The bill.
to create Nesmith county was de-
feated In the last legislature. Fol
lowing the example of Hood River
county, which met similar defeat
the creation of Nesmith county will
now be put up TO the direct vote Of
the people under the Initiative ami
Referendum and will meet with sim.
liar success at the hands of the pe1-
pie who created Hood River county,
A development Measure.
Some one has said II would be a
good thing for the rapid development
of Oregon IL ten new counties were
created. A state twice as big as
Iowa, with only thirty-odd counties,
needs TO be cut up into smaller coun-
ties, on the same principle that large
ranches are being cut up into small
or ones. SO the proposition to create
Nesmith county is In the line of de-
velopment.
A new county means new towns

ests, new stimulus to good roads,

tives 70 creations OF wealth that are

await reduction and the wealth an
nually produced in these mines now
adds greatly to the prosperity of
Cottage Grove. Supplies for the
mines and development work give
employment to hundreds of men and
teams all the year. Mining and
numbering make a market for all the
aoii viii produce and a few acres
properly handled will support a
family. Hence, Cottage Grove is a
