in eastern Oregon of-the question ot state
division. l:astem uregon wants ,1 sepa
rate state government because the politi

machine, is at Portland and this portion
f the state has never received a square

Now, aside from the local advant
nccruiiiK from political prizrs and al
leed honors, there are no benefits to be
derived from state division; It will ma
terially Increase taxation. The most prac-
tlcal solution of the Irritating subject will
be for the western combination to throw a
crumb to the eastern portion -of the state.
And this brings the matter to the point
where Till: MINI:K becomes interested; to
a subject on which it can work up some
enthusiasm.

needs a school of mines and, furthermore,

The western powers should give these
suggestions due consideration.
