Portland

There has been considerable
criticism in the past throughout
Central and Eastern Oregon as
to the attitude taken by the City
of Portland regarding these in
terror sections. There has al
ways been neglect and a dense
ignorance displayed by the citi-
zens of the metropolis Of our
state relative to the conditions,
resources and possibilities of
Eastern Oregon.
We had some hope of a change
last summer when representative
business men of Portland asked
Mr.. Strahorn to undertake the
working out of a transportation
scheme to connect up the isolat-
ed sections of the state and en-
able their products to enter the
coast markets. Various meet
ings have been held throughout
Central Oregon to further these
plans and the different communi-
ties have seriously undertaken to
do their part. All the publicity
given to this matter deals with
the activities of the rural districts
and we have yet to see an item
eminating from the business men
of Portland indicating what aid
they proposed to render At a
public meeting in Burns a couple
of weeks since, Mr.. Strahorn
spoke very discouragingly of the
possibility of securing much sup
port from the Portland people,
excusing them on the ground
that they had problems of their
own to take care of. Is not the
upbuilding and development of
the vast agricultural sections
east of the Cascades and the Sc
surfing of its trade a big problem
for Portland?
True she has her Scenic High
way which will increase the
sightseeing bus traffic and made
some hotel and road-house busi-
ness for a short season each
year. She has her roses and it
is a beautiful sentiment to pin a
flower on the Mayor of Pough- |
keepsie, N. Y, while on a SUNNI
er vacation. This however, can
hardly be charged up to state de-
velopment, for the donee of this
favor cannot be expected to re-
turn home and advise his consti-
tutents to pack up and move out
to the waiting farms of Oregon.
We realize that it is easy to
criticise but at the same time we
believe that there has been a lot
of waste motion in the exploit
tation of Oregon. If the City of
Portland will take twenty to
thirty thousand of her large de-
velopment funds raised each year
and quietly bring out twenty
good Middle-west or Eastern far
mers, place ten in the willamette
Valley and ten in Eastern Oregon
under satisfying conditions that
she will be laying the foundation
for material, abiding prosperity
for the future.
So far as the Harvey outlet is
concerned our outlet and our
hope for the immediate future is
to the eastward. In self preser-
walton we must develop and
move forward along the most
lines. If Pacific Coast |
centers want our trade they must
join with us in removing the
handicaps which now prevent

came to Polk County, this STATE

1890 they came to Harvey Coun

To this union were born thre,
daughters; Evelyn, Marjorie ant

husband survive her.
Mrs. Byrd was born of Christ

ligious influences. She imbibet
religious principles from hel
earliest recollection. and scru
pulously adhered to them through
out her life. She was governed
by her convictions; and tenaci

Thus she exerted a positive in.
fuence among a large circle of
friends; we all felt her capability,
and her advice was always sought.
Just one brief year ago at this
season, she was among the bust
est workers on the Christmas
Committee, and it was at her
home that we met to pack the
baskets and boxes for the poor.
She was a teacher in the Pres
byterian Sunday School; a memb.
er Of the Christian Endeavor, and
all last year she was present al
every meeting unless prevented
by illness. and took her part
faithfully. and she had her family
with her. We often felt the
force and blessedness Of her ex.
amples in this.
She was one of the chief work
ers in the Ladies Aid; and every
thing that pertained to the wei.
fare of the church claimed her
first attention. Mrs. Byrd was
President of the Burns Public

OBJECTS TO BEING IGNORED

Nv ever refer to the mining inter
ests OF old White Pine county, which
is milling about $4,000 tons OF cop
per ore daily, I say nothing OF golo'

nrobably mills as much ore in a LAY
as all other mines Of the state IN a

of a passing notice in the narrow
minded of the western
part OF the state. As a matter OF tact
the Ely district is the second gold
camp in the state in the point OF out
nut. but this is not generally known
because the rold is a by-product OF
copper. 1t might be advisable Tor
some OF those western editors to VISIT
White Pine once, just to lind out
that there is something OF import
sance doing in Eastern Nevada. lily
Record.
1t may be that the papers OF west
ern Nevada have been somewhat re-
miss in not giving more publicity
than they have been to the great
mines of Ely and White Pine county,
but speaking for itself the Appeal
can say that the greater blame lies
with the Ely papers themselves. In
the first place the White Pine News
for some unknown reason, refuses &c
exchange with the Appeal; therefore
its columns are not available. Second
ly. the Records report of mining do
ings in White Pine county are toG
scholastic and too voluminous to ge'
the gist of things, making it neces'
sary to spend a lot Of valuable time
to search out what should be writer
in fifteen or twenty lines.
The Record should learn to sum
Marie, like the Tonopah papers, the
camps weekly or monthly produc'
ton. Were that method followed the
mining events OF White Pine count,
would gain a lot more publicity. Try
it for a change.
