HISTORY OF OREGON (Continued front page one) Yamhill County Reporter to the paper in 1872—which would give the News-Reporter an opportunity to celebrate its diamond anniver sary next year if it3 publisher wished. Astorian Started in 1873 The Astorian-Budget will have a diamond anniversary in 1948, hav ing been started in 1873 by the same D. C. Ireland, Horace Gree ley’s old typesetter, who established the Oregon City Enterprise. The Astorian is the older part of the combination, 19 years the senior of the Budget. If it is correct that the Ontario Argus was started as the District Silver Advocate in January 1897, it will be ready for its silver jubi lee about a year from now. A brief review of the founding fathers gives T. J. Dryer as the first editor-publisher of the Ore gonian. The daily, however, was started by H. L. Pittock February 4, 1861. The other big Oregonian name is Harvey 'W. Scott, editor, with a few years' hiatus, from 1865 to 1910. The Oregon Statesman, whose godfather was Samuel R. Thurs ton, first delegate to Congress from Oregon, was published by Asalrel Bush, rated by Scott as the strongest of early Oregon publish ers. Republican Paper Started T. B. Odeneal, who had been editor of a Democratic paper, the Democratic Crisis, in Corvallis, in 1859, started the staunch Republi can, Lincoln-supporting Gazette in 1862. Dean of all present-day Oregon publishers is A. E. Voorhies, who has been either publisher or co publisher of the Grants Pass Cou rier since 1897. He has been sole owner since 1899. Before that he had been a hand-printer on the old Portland Sun, 1894. Being the only man in the organization with real business ability when the crash came, he was moved off the print ing case and put in charge of cleaning up the financial mess. Several years ago he was honored by election as the Oregon editor who had done the most for his community.
