It is pointed out that Oregon is the most backward of wcBUHii states m development altho it has the largest area of unused and available land and the most standing timber of my Biaie in ine union, along with great natural resources, that if they existed in more enterprising regions, would long nave ween commercialized. The population increases Aur me past iu years is shown by the following: ,,, , . ' Population. California ., 3,426,861 "al -- 431,866 r-' " - "0,395 Washington 1,356.621 "1C6'JU 783.39S P. C. Increase 44.1 32.6 20.4 18.8 16.4 There must be a reason for this rfltarrlerl W.oirmmnnf or,A mere is or rather several reasons. One is the fact that t ortland in the past has concentrated its energies upcn build ing up the city instead of the state, with the result that the one city is overbuilt and top-heavy, and the smaller cities underbuilt because tributary areas have not been developed. Portland capital has not been availahlp fnr afnfo tr,aaa - - J a condition that is passing away. Another reason for Oregon's backwardness is the popular antagonism shown towards invested capital. No matter what uie investment, somebody is always trying to ruin the indus try created and a perpetual fight for preservation is neces sary, not only before the people to defeat freak legislation but in the legislature. Capital is proverbially a coward and avoids an unfriendly state. A sauare deal must be insnrpd in u runs away. High taxation is one of the reasons for our slow growth, altho it was mostly incurred by direct vote of the people. uiKe omer commonwealths, we have made extensive im provements based upon the supposition that an increasing population would share the increased overhead. And we continue at every election to vote mqre bonds and authorize more expenditures that mean higher taxation. Communities, iiKe individuals, Iind it hard to economize. Oregon needs the right kind of advertising badly. Most of jf ; j . r i ... uui iruii products are unknown in the east and will be as long as tney are packed under California labels. As a state we lack the unify and pull-together spirit that has made California. We pull apart and therefore accomplish little. When we learn the necessity of coopesation, we will have mastered the first lesson in progress. ' , ' However, Oregon has received plenty of advertising of me wrong son. ine $3UU,U00 raised by Portland's chamber of commerce is offset many times by the amount of publicity received as the result of the last election. Known for years as the home of freak legislation, Oregon is being advertised as the land of fanaticism arid religious bigotry and now the iMun-partisan league threatens to do for us what it has done iu! iNortn uaicota in the way of socialism and fill to over flowing the brimming cup.
