OREGON MAD AT THE CENSUS


Washington to Have Twice ~ Many
Consressmeus Also the Biggest City.
Portland Oregonian.
In 1850 the population of OREGON was l74,76a
held in the same month in which the census
was taken--was 81 .7s9 The ratio of population
70 voters was A6s to l. In June OF this year
tfS9ol the total vote cast was a0a At the ratio

But IL begins 20. Be apparent that the total

in both divisions Of the state, so far - In ne
sults have been allowed to filter out through
the hardpan Of cficial ignorance and stupidity,
lead to this conclusion.
In the ssase Of Warrington the census has
been taken under the direction OF officials who

oREoor TAKES 4 BACK SEAT.


Enough Il known concerning the result
Of the census to justify the statement that
Washington has from sixty To- seventy
i've thousand more people than Oregon.
II ID probable that under the next appor-
tionment Washington will have two rep
rsssntatives in congress, while Oregon
must be content 70 have only one.
To those who hsvs lived long in this
commonwealth. the manner In which
Washington hes distanced her older and
larger neighbor on the South, must afford
profound satisfaction. The despissd SISTER
has suddenly donnsd the robes Of : prin-
cess.
Only few years have passed since Ore
gon asserted . general claim to Washing
ton and everything that 1t possessed or
produced. Washington lumber was
spoken Of ~ Oregon lumber. Washington
salmon were Oregon salmon. The Column
bia was an Oregon river. Oregon interests
dominated the business OF Washington.
Oregon politicians undertook TO control
Washington politics. and the people Of
Washington read and supported an Ore
gon newspaper.
How completely Is all this changed.
The people OF Washington now control
their own affairs, business ~ well a. politi-
cal. They read their own newspapers, and
no longer look to Oregon either for news
or for opinions. Washington passes the
ival who looked upon her with so great
contempt, and takes her place - the lead
ing state OF the Pacific Northwest.
Oregon ID q good state. and, In spite OF
the past. the people of Washington wish it
all prosperity. But It viii never again Be
regarded a. in any sense . rival Of this
great commonwealth.

The Wild dogs and the watching txiba
Like driven dust before Ii few.
The wealth OF kings the ekiil of scxibea

The mountains opened mp their stores.
And like the sound Of music rang
The children's feet on happy floors
Oh, brethren of the moving fame,

You bear, no matter whence you came,
The message Of the brave and free

Dospairing capsiyes from their chains
