MONDAY, JANUARY, 17, 1021. NO (JERRYMANDER (Portland Orogonlan) , Tho state of Oregon, under tho proposed congressional reappoint ment, may get four members of tho houso of representatives; and it may not. Tho bill has'.not yet passed, nor even been reported out of com mltteo at Washington; and It Is likely to encounter obstacles which will greatly alter Its form. Dut tho an nouncement that the state's repre sentation may bo Increased has al ready started a movement In tho leg islature for redlstrlctlng the stato Into four divisions. Why four dis tricts when it is not known that thoro will bo no more than throo rep resentatives! It would not bo fair to say that tho demand for redisricting comes wholly from members of the legis lature who are nursing an ambition to go to congress; but It Is proper to Bay that, it it Is to be dono they pur pose to say how it shall be done. The result Is a great variety of tentative proposals, having in vlow tho geo graphical situations of several gen tlemen. No one can be blamed for. holding an ambition to go to con gress; but thero should bo no gerry mander to mako it feasible. The stato divides itself naturally into three parts western Oregon, eastern Oregon "and ' Multnomah county. Tho new census gives Ore gon a total of 783,389, .of which all the" counties east of tho Cascades have 160,502 and those west of the mountains, exclusive of Multnomah, havo 363,599. Hero now wo have the great territory east of the Cas cades with less than ono-'fourth of the population of the state; yet one proposed scheme would divide the district, and attach it to a part of the Willamette valley. , To be exact, It wouldjsut off Hp od River and Wasco counties, and addvtbenv'to Clacka mas, 'Washington', ' Columbia and aome. others, b 'The design is obvious. Represen tative Blnnott Is a resident of Wasco county and it is planned (6 gerry mander him out Qf, eastern Oregon and throw him Into a strange and new district so that the whole wide remaining expanso east of the moun tains will be left free and open for any other county which -would like to have a congressman. .' The plan would do a great injus tice to Representative Sinnott. Mr. Blnnott is at the head of. the im portant comraltteoiom puillc lands, , and as such Is in postlott 'to render ' valuable service to his entire district and to state and nation.,' If the leg islature should hamstring him by cuttlnb off nine-tenths of his district and tying him up "lth'Ja 'unjber of counties west of tho (J'aflcado moun tains, where bo has 'slight' acquaint ance and no, present, special knowl edge of legislative 'meeds, his in fluence would .be lessened here and the vast territory which" embraces the greatefpart'bf his1 ilstricV would lose a valuable public service. It Is incredible that the. llglslature will take any action which would dp, vio lence to a natural situation, and at the same time would' 'commit Mr. Sinnott to needless perplexity, and embarrassment for' the future. Quite clearly eastern Oregon should be left alone; and Just as "clearly Multnomah should not he disturbed. It Is not so easy to say bow tho remainder of the state should be divided; but that two dis tricts should be made out, of western Oregon, exclusive of Multnomah, is plain enough. But why redistrlcjt the state now at all? Any plan will precipitate the legislature' Into protracted and futile controversy and its time Is needed for more pertinent affairs. KLAMATH LODGE NO, 77 A.
