"One prominent wheat man of eastern Oregon wrote the governor as follows In referring to Mr. Gill and Mr. Tompkins: "These men do not represent Ore gon agriculture, as Is evidenced by the fact that the eastern Oregon wheat league, representing more than 20.000.000 bushels of wheat produc tion annually, the Oregon growers, the Oregon cattle and horse raisers.
