Z ptshopa was the proposition antro-
iduced by the Bishop Of oregon for a
rearrangen,ent OF tho missionary ter
ritory Of the seventh missionary 1uris-
diction. embracing q large area OF the
western States. y. !.
The diocese OF Oregon contains
moro than $4,000 square miles OF ter
ritory and more than two-thirds OF
tho diocese lies cast OF the CASCADE
Mountains.
: THAT portion OF the diocese lying
east OF the mountains contains about
100000 population. and is growing
rapidly in population and wealth, and
is capable OF supporting q large popu-
lation.
In this territory there arc at this
time eleven churches, parishes and
missions
The church is weak there, due to
lack OF financial means to support
clergymen. -
The only practical remedy for this
condition OF things appears to be the
setting off OF that portion OF the
diocese as a separate missionary dis
trict.3 In view OF these conditions the
bishop OF this diocese and the dele
gates to the General Convention are
asking the convention to set OFT as O
separate missionary district all that
part OF the Diocese OF Oregon lyins
east or the Cascade Mountains. and
that the General Convention take
Jurisdiction in accordance with the
canons OF tho church as missionary
district.
The proposed cession OF Eastern
