In speaking iwith President Wright it is learned that work on the board of trade's descriptive pamphlet is going on finely, and that the work will be issued soon. Over 83230 has been raised for ex penditure in advertising during the coming year, and the committee in tends increasing this amount con siderably yet. President Wright has employed D. L. Greene to solicit advertising for the pamphlet to be issued soon, and Mr. Greene begun work to-day. It should receive good patronage, and the book should be published as soon as possible. The board recently authorized the insertion of small advertisements in several leading papers of the middle states, Iowa, Minnesota, etc., not ing that pamphlets descriptive of Oregon could be had on application to the president of the board of trade, and the number of applica tions received already is marvelous. It is intended that Oregon, and especially Marion county and Salem shall be known to the world. The pamphlets will receive a wide circulation, and will be widely read. The result of this scheme is sure to bo good for this city. Let the matter bo crowded all that is possible, and let every citizen of Salem who knows of any one in the east who wants in formation regarding Oregon apply to President Wright for one of these pamphlets. The principal thing in advertising is to secure circulation where it will do the most good, and all citizens of Salem should use their utmost endeavors now to advance the common cause. About Immigration. Iii view of the efforts now under way to induce emigration to Oregon, one important consideration should not bo kept out of the reckoning. Anything like misrepresentation ought to bo abstained from. None ought to be lured here. All should come with clear understanding of the facts, without exaggeration or concealment. Oregon needs and invites the immigration which will populate tho state and bo contented with their coming. There is no dearth of workingmen in tho state. The field of labor is amply supplied. Of these classes there is no want. Tho ordinary working man de pendent upon his daily wages for his support, will not better his condition by coming here. Neither istheroany lack of men in clerkly vocations, dependent upon salaries for regular subsistence from week to week. The towns nnd cities are already fairly supplied with these classes. The great need is of men of moderate or fair means, able to buy lands or farms and locate; men possessed of enough to fairly begin iu their new homesagainst ordinary risk of destitution through want of these means, during tho first year. After that, no industrious, frugal, thrifty, careful man Is likely to fail to prosper; and riches will come with years. Farmers, fruit crowers, stock breeders, men in every Ibranch of Husbandry, are tho kinds of emi grants who can better prosper by coming. Capitalists will find grand or good opportunities for investment. Merchants and traders need have no doubt of ample fields in their special or general lines. Any who come empty handed must not be disap pointed in tho event of failure to at once better their condition. There are vast areas of fertile lands un occupied in Oregon, and everywhere in this great Northwest. These await location and cultivation. No country has richer soil. Tho climate is unequaled for health and in vigoratlon. Cereals, nnd grasses grow in unrivaled luxuriance and excellence. All kinds of live stock thrive, Tho forests are inexhaust ible. The rivers are matchless. Tho mountains surpassing in grandeur. Irausportatton, by water and by railroad, Is ample for the present, and all the time Improving and ex panding. Winter blizzards and summer drouths are never suffered. Intense cold and intolerable heat do not aflllct man or boast. This Is a state In which to found permanont homes with tho assurance of health and of wealth as tho years roll. Wild gamei abounds; tho rivers and breams, and the ocean ylold abund ant food tlsh of tho bettor species. Everything to ensure contented life nd the accumulation of wealth is here upon this coast.
