To the citizens of Poitltihd w ho make up the "Good Will'' train, The OlMeiver is sure that it tart offer warm, friendly greeting's of the entire Ln Grande Community. Realizing, as we do throughout the year, that Portland always bears us a most sincere good will, we feel gratified, nevertheless, that her citizens feel the urge to carry the message to us person ally on this occasion. We are glad to have them With us, glad that they have taken a day-light opportunity to view this, THE CITY of Eastern Oregon. It is unnecessary, we are sure, to point out to our visitors Win. l'cilll 3 CC'UtM j CifKUl CiKllt' l'ICIillKS 1:1x17 pictures, nsNOticd suhjoets, nil mile nt UU'hlil'ilKon's Art mull (lift Khop for 69 einm cnoh.

JVnn 5 riMii A (Jnoil ClKnr the Ol-egon commonwealth is a conimon goal. It is unneces sary, We say, because business men of Portland unappreciative of thab fact could not find accommodation on a train tour ing their home city's extensive territory, seeking better ac quaintance with it and closer friendships for Portland. It is Unnecessary for anyone serving as a guide on the morning's tour to point out that the lumber payrolls of La Grande, that the cl-ops of the valley, that the building and trade activities of the comniunity are' not only proud pos sessions of La Grande but, at the same time, proud posses sions of Portland. Such wealth and prosperity as you find here is directly contributory to the wealth and prosperity of your own Oregon metropolis To divert the prosperity of. ,','n"' Eastern Oregon ito other channels must naturally divert a . certain measure of prosperity from Portland, To guard and increase it is to guard and inci'ease that which is partly your own. During the morning, for example, you may see one bit'Wm. ivnn n ram of evidence nf Ln Grande's nrriRiwvitv if voil visit the Union. Pacific shops.

You would not only be directly af-! fected but peiuonnlly grieved nnd disturled if transpoi-tu-tion activities and payrolls such as a railroad provides were taken from Portland territory and put abruptly within the borders of another state. Such a thing would result if the Snake River route of the Union Pacific is ever actually constructed. And that project, therefore, desen'es the attention and serious study in all its aspects of the thinking citizens of Portland. The effect on taxable valuations in Oregon, the effect on Port land's port Volume, on Portland's retail trade, the advantage to Paget Sound ports These and numerous other considera tions deserve Portland's attention. Further than that, it may interest Portland people to note Hint an alternate route without disadvantages to Ore gon's welfare has been suggested by Commissioner Corey a route down the Grande Konde river from Elgin to Lewis ton, Idaho, a route that would give the same advantage of shortened distance between northern and southern Idaho, that would require fur less construction, that would open inore valuable resources in limber and agricultural lands. Portland people can investigate that to a good advantage, if they interest themselves in the question of future rail- road development. We are sure that they will. We are also nure that they will thereby gain far more in the way of mate rial things and in multiplied good will than would other-i wise be possible from this extensive and happily visional journey inlo the realm of Portland's "Inland Empire."
