Both the Eantand the Middle West need an introduction to the Far West. That introduction is going to be made, formally you may take your choice this year, and the Lewis and Clark Ex position will be the introducer. This Exposition, which will open Jane 1, will be useful in many ways, but in no way will it be more useful to Americans than in making the far divided sections of this great country acquainted with each other. What does the man who lives in Augastrt on the Kennebeck, for iusianceknow about the man whose home is at Salem on the Willamette? And the La Grande Oregoniaii what is his concep tion of the Washington whose residence is in the District, of Columbia? Between San Fran cisco and New York stretch 3, 000 miles of teriitory, and the middle does uot know the ends, nor do the , ends - have proper acquaintance with each other. The Exposition at Portland will bring together both ends and the middle and make them mutually acquainted. The East ought to know more about ' the East, for Easterners travel in the West more than Westerners travel in the East; but somehow those touring Easterners do not seem to diffuse their knowledge of the West ; when they return home. Or perhaps the home staying Easterners refuse to be lieve .that their travel-wise neighbors tell them of the WeBt becausb some of those tales are tallish, so to speak, and appear aabelievablo to the eye of the conservative Easterner. On the other hand, the East has gained a mighty misconcep tion of the Weat ,by placing credence in tales entirely too tall for the proper stature of truth'and veracitv. The "wild and wooly" West is the only Wst which much of the East knows of. The tamed and tran quil West they refuse to believe in, and they entertain also, in some quarters, a notion that the West is incapable of complete civilisation. That two weeks' stay in St'. Louis must have ruined him. WaTing Fang is under suspi cion of grafting in his native China our own, onliest Wu . Spotted fever is said to be prevalent in New York, and spring fever otherwheres.
