It was the duty of the Oregonian, in the interest of warnlntr and arousing Its people to some disposition of action against this bal.ful condition, to have published the plain figures long ago, Not only docs it refuse to face the facts, but when brought to its attention by others, the Oregonian has sought to palliate the truth and gloss over the true situa tion by forced and fallacious construc tions favorable to Portland. All the time the current has been setting hard er and harder against Oregon.
