ELGIN — No arrests have been made in the case involving two bull elk illegally killed northeast of Elgin last week.

“There are no new developments. We are still seeking information,’’ said Sgt. Chris Hawkins of the Oregon State Police this morning.

Hawkins said the OSP has received many phone calls from people offering information about the case. He said the calls are welcome.

“We have received lots of calls,” Hawkins said. “We are looking to get more.”

The two dead bull elk were found by the OSP Wednesday 60 yards from Yarrington Road.

Neither the antlers nor the meat were taken from the elk, according to an OSP news release. One bull was a six-point, the other a five-point.

Anyone with information regarding the case is encouraged to contact OSP Sr. Trooper Marcus McDowell through the Turn-In-Poachers hotline at 1-800-452-7888 or email at marcus.mcdowell@state.

Translator District payments to be added to property bill

Now that property owners in Baker and Union counties have received their annual property tax statements, the board of directors of the Blue Mountain Translator District reminds members who receive a bill from the district in the statement that this is for the 2015/2016 fiscal year. Any member who did not return the July annual statement they received in 2015 will now have the district’s $100 annual usage fee for the signal added to their property tax statement in accordance with ORS 354.690.

If you believe you received this bill on your tax in error, you may write the district a note of explanation at P.O. Box 901, La Grande 97850. Each case is reviewed by the board and if the board agrees, the amount will be refunded. The fee is used to maintain, repair and update the equipment the district uses to bring television service over the mountains from Portland to rebroadcast from our three translator sites to your home antennas.

Those who want to begin using the signal, at $8.34 per month, may go to www.bmtd.org for information and advice on equipment needed to receive the best possible signal. The district has antennas and boosters available for sale at near cost.

Wyden troubled by nominations of Flynn and Pompeo

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., a senior member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, issued the following statement regarding national security officials announced by President-elect Trump’s transition team.

“The designation of Michael Flynn to be National Security Adviser is deeply alarming. His statements about Muslims are profoundly un-American as well as damaging to the fight against terrorism and national security. He has indicated an openness to torture and the destruction of an entire city, both of which are clearly illegal, not to mention immoral and destructive to America’s global leadership. His financial entanglements with Russia and other foreign governments are also cause for concern, particularly given President-elect Trump’s refusal to disclose his own finances.

“With the designation of Michael Flynn and Steven Bannon, the president-elect has created a White House leadership that embodies the most divisive rhetoric of his campaign. To the extent that these become policies or legislative proposals, I commit to stopping them. I will also approach the confirmation process with the expectation that nominees will, at the very minimum, demonstrate a clear commitment to American values and the rule of law.

“In that spirit, I look forward to the confirmation process for Representative Mike Pompeo to be Director of the CIA. Given its recent history of operating a disastrous torture program and then spying on the Senate itself, the agency demands principled leadership now more than ever. Unfortunately, Representative Pompeo’s comments in which he asserted that the CIA’s torture program was legal and that the American people did not deserve to know about it are deeply troubling.”
