Sixty-one years In Oregon. This Is
almost a natural lifetime, but such Is
the record fit a gentleman who Is now
visiting In La Grande. , The gentleman
referred to Is the Hon. S. M. Penning
ton, father of C. C. Pennington, one
of our well known and respected citi
zens. 8. M. Pennington is now 84
years old, but hale and hearty. To
those unacquainted with his age he
appears many years younger. He
stands erect, walks with a uprightly
vigor and speaks with the strength,
clearness and vim of a man of 40, He
explained to a couple of boys, whom
he was watching clean a bicycle that
he also rode a wheel and thought
uuuuus " " "r .n-milM nip
tor pleasure and belleved'that, should
necessity avise, he could wheel off SO
miles In a day and not feel any the
worse for the trip. His personal ap
pearance Is such that no ' one need
have reason to doubt his ability to ac
complish the feat. Mr. Pennington is
one of Oregon's oldest pioneers. He
came to this state In 1847, starting
from McComb, 111., April 25, 1847.
and arriving in Oregon City Septem
ber of the same year. Soon after1
reaching Oregon City he went to Al
bany, Ore., where he Bettled upon a
donation land claim. He still owns
this tract of land and resides there
the greater portion of the time. For
17 years he resided In Umatilla conn
ty and for two terms represented that
county In the state senate. In 1885
he returned to his Albany farm, where
he has since resided.
During his residence of 61 years In
Oregon he has seen many changes. He
distinctly remembers the time when
hunting was good where the Portland
city hall now Btanda, and the only
means of crossing the Willamette was
the log canoe of the Indian or Hudson
Bay trapper. He has seen the stage
coach supplant the ox team and the
Puyman In turn supersede the stage.
He has seen the little pioneer settle
ment gathered about the Hudson Bay
trading post at Oregon City grow and
expand, and become one of the grand
est states In the Union. He has seen
mountains, rivers and valleys made to
yield their wealth to the thousands of
men and women who have followed
the trail made by him and his few
score pioneer friends. He haa seen I
wilderness subdued, and farms, vll
lages and cities take Its place. And,
greater and better yet, he has the
pleasure of knowing that during all
the time that this wonderful transfor
matlon has been taking place his hand
has not been Idle, and he has been
able and Important factor In the
recreation of Oregon. May he live
many years longer and be able to note
that the present generation will re
celve the heritage of a ready-made
state with fitting respect and deliver
It to Its children with as splendid a
record of progress and achievement as
did the pioneers of whom S. N. Pen
I nlngton Is a true type.

business. ,1 had many of the symp

scription did hot reach my case, and
I look several medicine which seem

success." A. T. Hill, druggist. . '.,

Pendleton Tribune) Boorclicd.
A small fire of mysterious origin in
the office of the Pendleton Morning
Tribune this morning, was discovered
Just In time to prevent the destruction
of the plant. The fire started In the
pile of papers collected about the fold
er after the last boy had gone out and
the office was deserted. A. O. Carden
and Fred Olcott, coming to work for
the day at 7:30, discovered the blaze,
which had cleaned up the floor and
had started In on the wall. By heroic
work they extinguished the flames
without the aid of the department. It
Is conceded that a few minutes more
and the Interior of the plant would
have been In flames. Pendleton Eaiit
