EASTERN OREGON
SHOULD UNITE
MOVEMENT is LAUNCHED
AT MEETING AT BAKER

Plans Made TO Visit Pendleton Soon
10 Get This City in Lne-United
Strength of Eastern Oregon Will
Result in Great Advancement, De-
.clareS Speakers.
Baker, Ore, April 17-Sometme in
the months that can be counted there
will be a united Eastern Oregon-an
amalgamaton of the counties this side
OF the Cascades.
This united Eastern oregon will
have a strength that will make it
able and ready to develop and de-
mand more and better things which
are now its right but it is not receiv-
ing.
Eventually this amalgamation may
swing eastern Oregon into separ-
ate state.
These ideas were among the many
good ones that developed at the ban
quet at the Geiser Grand given by the
Baker boosters in honor of the 43 La
Grande hooters. SO successful was
the first visit of the La Grande men
and so well liked was the idea of
amalgamation that a trip of the Ba-
ker and La Grande Boosters to Pen
dleton within the next month to get
that city in line won with instant
favor. Nearly so promised to go.
The idea was proposed by Bruce
Dennis of La Grande. formerly of Ba-
ker. during his toast after roasting
Governor West to turn He told of
the advantages Of amalgamation of
all eastern oregon cities, including
Baker La Grande, Pendleton, The
Dales. Lakeview, klamath Falls and
possibly all. others east of the Cas-
cades. He told of the advantages of
the acquired strength of an organiza-
tion in demanding things of the leg
islature or of other political or social
bodies.
I'VE have been disjointed so that
nothing could be done before. But
united we can get anything we de-
mand of other parts of the state, be-
cause we can show the strength that
will command respect" he said.
His idea was echoed by the able
POSTMASTER, w :. Levens, c. A.
Johns. of Portland, formerly of Ba-
ker, John r. Donnely and A. A.
Smith of Baker and G. NJ Humphries.
secretary of the La Grande CONNER
cial club, and George Cochran of the
state water board at La Grande.
The idea of the possible future
state of eastern oregon was brought
out prominently by Mr.. Donnelly and
Mr.. Smith and from the applause of
their remarks it was shown that it
was approved by the So Bakeries and
32 La Grande men at the banquet
Mr. Smith spoke for the young men
of the city and said: ut may be far
distant but this idea of eastern Ore
gon being a state to itself is a ques-
tion and is sure to come. The rea-
sons why it should be done are shown
in the vast differences of the two sec
tons and their requirements.

BRYAN SOUNDS A
WELCOME TO CHINA
