Endless confusion baa been ' caused by . the-establishment -of the aew . east side passenger depot of the Southern Pacifle oo m pan yT aBdwhatwaa at one time bailed with delight by the eaat aide reaidents Is now anything but a causa of joy. Trouble started when the station was named .the East. VT ashing ton Street station, and tha old waiting room at tha foot of -Sullivan's gulch re tained the name of East Portland sta tion. Eaat aide residents who had paid no heed to the old depot discovered that It- was oa the map when, .their, baggage and friends arrived in tha mud at the foot -of tha gulch, v .- -., ' Finally -a- few determined business men who had long Journeya to take re- teat and to discover if tha company had kept ita promlaea that through tick eta ahould be aold there; that' baggage could be checked to or from It, and that evefjraccommodatlon afforded paa-4 aengera at tha- west aide-depot -would ba rTVerTrOrie rnan"trleortg b- to Los Angeles, but could not aecure through paaaaga at tha Eaat Washing ton station.

When he waa ready to return ha tried to buy a ticket to Kast Washington street station, and there was not an agent Of tha Southern Paclflo in either Los Angeles or - San Francisco who would believe there was such a station, Others who have taken shorter trips hsva discovered that their baggage la dumped off at the old east side depot despite their specific instructions to tha baggage agenta of valley -towns. The result is that the general public paases the depot by. In the meantime the Harrlman passenger officers bave expressed - thelraurprUe at . thealinht amount of bualneas done. . It is under- StT"fl tbet " present depftt, whlfrh was onl y an exporli giVi good argument for the erection off a permanent atatlon once promlaed by the company, and the eaat aide business men are wondering If the disadvantages loaded on the place are intentional.

The experiment fill on the eaat aide. will aoon be, started and within a week It will be shown whether, the. plan pro posed by the East Side Improvement association, with tha aid of the Port of Portland commission, Is practicable or not. Workmen have completed the laying of the plpea from tha dredge, these having been carried through the East Water street and East Second street Alls, and yesterday afternoon the last Jength between the river and the end of tha line In the marsh waa coupled on. Within a day or ao the port's dredge will begin work on the gravel and aand deposits, of the eaat ahore of tha Willamette, and should ths dredge prove fit for the work it will be kept busy until next, winter. filling the entire district from East Washington street to Hawthorne ave nue, and ' from Union avenue to the river.

The East Side association com mittee haa been waiting the arrival of Oregon weather to complete Ita arrange ments, which are already well In hand. after several eonaultatlona with - the school board. - The members of all the Improvement organisations of the east side will be notified of the occasion and the general public invited. It being the wlah of the association that tha 40.000 people who next year will be directly Intereated in the new achool ahould be represented at tha dedication.
