These four counties contain 2,700 square miles and 92,000 people. Judge Miller presented considerable statistical evidence as to area, taxable property and population, and filed with the committee petitions which, he stated, were signed by more than 90 per cent of the citizens and property owners in the district to be affected, urging that 'Turner' county be created. It was proposed to make Ashburn, in Worth county, the county seat of the new county, as the town is located near the center of the territory of which it is proposed to create the new county."
