Oregon Serenity
Past; Industry
Causes Unrest
Oregon is “the most civilized
place to live in all the West,’’ ac
cording to Portlandite Stewart H.
Holbrook, in an article in the
March American Mercury maga
zine.
But, he adds, after 100 years of
serenity and the quiet way of life,
Oregon is a scene of unrest. In
dustrialization, with its attendant
hustle and bustle, is coming to the
Beaver State, and “decent men
who really love Oregon toss in
their sleep with visions of a second
New Jersey here among the tall
firs and the cattle ranges.”
Since 1940 the population has
jumped 40 per cent, Holbrook
says, with nearly one-third of the
state’s 1,545,000 people crowded in
and around bursting-at-the-seams
Portland. And more people are
‘coming all the time.
With this population and indus
trial growth, Holbrook fears will
come “the ills and harassments of
commerce and industry.” Yet he
is proud that the growth has come
without the blatant publicity cam
paigns of California and Washing
ton, the southern and northern
neighbors of Oregon, but is due
rather to the natural advantages
of the state.
“At the century’s turn it was
considered the most radical state
in the union because it pioneered
in adopting the iniative and refer
endum, the Australian ballot, and
other dangerous heresies that are
now commonplace,’’ writes Hol
brook. But, he says, Oregon still
tends to conservatism and has
elected more Republicans than
Democrats.
Culturally, Holbrook says, Ore
gon has some fine painters and
writers who are making their
names known in and out of their
native state. There is an excellent
art museum at Portland, and a fine
old newspaper, the Oregonian.
Oregonians are not stand-offish
to visitors and new citizens, Hol
brook claims, but are mildly reti
cent and somewhat chary of new
things and new acquaintances.
This, he says, “puts Oregon in a
high and distinguished position in
the list of states.”
A banker says he has never been
able to find a hat that really suit
ed him. Maybe he should change
restaurants.
