Reed. of Salem, was sent there in the inter.
est of Marion county. but the Board refused
to allow him seat, although it had previous.
ly agreed to do so. On the face Of it this
was most anfair thing to do; but.o course,
there may be private circumstances which
would initiate against tie charges. II looks
differently though When the Board wAs
first started an Eastern Oregon paper accus-
ed it Of being Portland institution in the
interest OF the railroads aud that city, and
the editor was called long cared donkey
for his pains
One thing Is certain, II the Board would
obtain the will of the people outside of Port
land, it should take decidedly different
course from that already pursued 1t has
reached that stage where the country expect.
No favors from Portland, aud rice rersa. This
is TO be regretted. No section OF state can
afford TO work against another. In this re.
spect the policy pursued has been poor
one. The appointment of q State Board Of
Immigration offered a grand opportunity for
the healing of old wounds but the Portland
managers, from the accounts given, have
failed to appreciate the position, and, instead.
are widening the gap. Cannot something be
done to change these facts. at least the ap-
pearances.
