Portland And The Upstate (Prank Irvlno in Portland Journal) The bitter flKlit at the special ses sion over the exposition inensiiro re calls that from timo liniiioninrlal there has been a feeling In upstate roiintleK that J'ortland way not fair with tho rest of the hUte. 'I'll at fenlliiK of feiidlsin was voiced all over Oregon a generation ago. Men now well flloiiK In yearB use.l to hear it when they wore schoolboys. It uppeitred eonsUintly In county newspapers. It was a general feel ing that Portland was ulways ready to "put something over" on tho rest of tho state. Sincere men voiced It and Insincere politicians fed it and capitalized It to their own bene llt. . i It ban never disappeared. Rome times It smoldered, particularly In thoNe days when the Oregon De velopment league, for a brief period, got up tho slogan "One for ail and till for one," und for a time held Htato-wldo meetings and cultivated a, spirit of confidence and mutual eood will. . One tiling that did more than any thing else to keep tho feud from dying lias been thu Multnomah dule-i Ration In the legislature. Without exception, there are ulways some t;ood members In tho delegation. As vegulurly, there have beep members who wore not good leglclators. Often they had ipersonal axes to grind. Not Infrequently, they were tho handy men for upoclul Interests. Scores of crimes aguinst the state have been committed In the chloro forming of good bills nnd the pas sage of biul ones. An example Is the uniformity with which they have killed Income tux bills ns a survlce to a considerable group In Purtland and 111 some outside cities who es- cupo payment of a Just share of taxation and by that escape pile up iinduo burdens on real estate. The Grain association undoubtedly had tho effect of stiffening the market price of wheat and may have 'added several cents a bushel to the figures that the growers -received. It Is vital to the welfare of the state that thet bitter feud that has been let loose 'again be healed over. A good way , to. begin, Is for MuJt nomuh to send .-only first olass men and- none- but, honest men to the legislature. Special- groups In thin town should .Utoo sendine their heunlHiHju to 'Salem to "put some-,; tlir ' on the rent-of the state. rS'ot -real property want I tux' the' thing to do Is lo"Y J.",n-.huvo ' It, instead of, phomlilf.'to some 'legislative hired man or two to kill the bill In com mlttee or 'by some other secret dro-! cess. - i If Portland will elect legislators who will stand for the general wel-. fare of the state, Instead of some of them standing for skulduggery, more will be done to end the old feud than can be dune lu uny other way. 11 Is a period In the growth of Oregon when there should be no feud betweeu the upstate and its principal city. - We nre behind In population. We have barren lnnds to reclaim nud make productive. We have enormous resources that have not yet been touched by the baud of of development. We cannot -go swiftly forward with sectlouu of the statu clutching ut one nuother's throats In -a bitter controversy. If the exposition Is to feed this feud and perpetuate tills wrangling, It will be unfortunate. It would bu clieuper for Portland to pay the en tire cost of the exposition.

He was shot through both legs in Oallipoli and, as he himself describes the event, "he rolled down, the hill like it shot rabbit," but, beiii'r an ir respre&sible optimist, he recovered. His personal strength is such flint he could at one time raise and hold out at arm's length a well-grown person as he sat in a chair.
