GEORGE PUTNAM, Editor and Publisher
Advertising Oregon
The Portland Chamber of Commerce is raising a fund of
ow,vW 10 aaveruse Oregon, stimulate colonization of idle
land and assist in development of resources by helping the
producer perfect marketing machinery.
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:

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.
