and if honesty, and skill in the art ore-

private citiien or corporation had no
large a job of printing to give out as
Ihc State has, they'd be likely to give
it not to the greatest politician, hut to
the man doing the best job for the least
money; and, in these times of reform

A Fine Horse. On Thursday,
March 2S, Mr. Win. Chalmers, of
Washington county, sold to Mr. Lau
rent Guichon. of Nicoli Vallcv. Brit
ish Columbia, the five year old Oregon
bred half Clydesdale stallion "Adven
ture," receiving the sum of Sinoo In
gold coin for him. "Adventure" Is a
most beautiful and noble appearing
animal, and has taken several first pre
miums at Oregon State Fairs. In
S76, as the best draft stallion, and as
f ., , . , to" nam wonting laoorer, earned sum
one, from the best draft team. In 1S77 , ,
he .1.MM,fh.fl. ;,., ' c,cnt t" start a small beer-bottling es
ne again took the hi st premium, as one
of the best draft team. We consider
$1000 a very reasonable price for him
and yet it fully pays Mr. Chalmers,
who makes a specialty of breeding fine
horses. The above is but another
proof that it is profitable to raise fine
stock in Oregon.
PERSONAL.
Will John Tones, who emigrated
from Natural Bridge, N. Y., and who
is supposed to have been in the lumber
business in Portland two or three years
ago, send his present add rest either to
this office or Z. B. Hitchcock, at Nat
ural Bridge.
This is likely to be an "off" year

CENTENNIAL BLOCK,
This handsome block of buildings,
ccted In 1S76 at an exDensc of
$100,000, is located on Second street,
between Morrison and Yamhill, occu
pying ;oo feet on the former and 100
feet on each of the hitler strccls. It is
ned by Messrs. T. M. Strowbridgc.
Wm. Beck and M. O. Lownsdale, and
is considered one of the most substan
tial business blocks in this city. The
linn of Kerron & Macbeth occupy the
double store on the corner of Ybmhlll.
JO feel wide with a depth of 70 feet.
and although started only In 1S76, have,
by honelGtrealing and strict attention to
business, built un a very extensive
trade. Their slock of Oenenl M-.
chaudisc is very heavy, and they make
direct importations from Eurone. n.
well as the Eastern States. The farm-
ing community, especially, will find
ixerron V Macbeth a profitable house
to deal with.
Adjoining the above firm, is the
Furniture establishment of Edwards &
Birmingham. Both of these gentle
men are experienced workmen, baying
previous to their starting in business
for themselves, held lucrative positions
In some of Ihc largest upholstering es
tablishments both here and in f'.ll.
.'
forma
They make a specialty of fine
Upholstering, but carry a very larm
slock of Furniture as well. Thev give
employment to a number of skilled
mechanics, and arc therefore worthy of
patronage.
We next come to "Chattcao de Ver
sailles," presided over by genial Frank
Fabrc. In 1S72 he established the
Central Market Coffee Stand, All in
sufficiency of" room, however, compelled
him to change lo his present quartet,
early in 1S77, w here he has flourished
ever since. His dinners bear an envi
able reputation, and Fnbrc's coffee is
well known all over the Pacific Coast.
We next come to Central I)rm.
Store, an elegant establishment, owned
by Mr. J. A. Child, who has 'had
years experience as a druggist in some
of the largest Eastern cities, and his
constantly growing custom is evidence
that his services arc appreciated here.
Besides the compounding of physician's
prescriptions, Mr. Child also conducts
a general business in Drugs, Chemi
cals, Paints, Oils, Brushes, etc.
Adjoining, wc find the office of the
d reliable Howe Machine Co.. with
Mr. A. M. Cannon as resident agent.
The Howe is an easv running and well
built machine, and although the oldest
is yet as good a machine as can be
found in the market.
The next firm claiming our attention
is the one of K. Seelig & Co., dealers
in wines and liquors, and whatever per
sonal dislike wc ourself may have
against trafic of that kind, wc must still
admire the business tact of Mr. Seelig.
Wc distinctly remember him but a few
years since when he came here and as
hard working laborer, earned suflr-
tabllahment on his own account. By
constant attention to business, general
sobriety, economy and accommodating
ways, he has built up an extensive job
bing trade in the interior of the State,
and three years ago associated with
him Mr. F. Zimmerman, a gentleman
favorably known amongst business men
hi this city.
The upper portion of this building
is divided into offices, and snugly quar
tered here we find the Tusticc court of
Judge R. E. Bybec, a terror to evil
doers, in compensation, however. Mr.
J. J. Browne's law office is only the
next door to it; this gentleman is one
of our most prominent attorneys, and
business entrusted to ' him receives
prompt attention. The real estate
agency of Geo. P. Lent, is also in this
building, with entrance on Second or
Morrison streets. Mr. Lent makes a
specialty of furnishing immigrants
reliable information concerning lands,
and transacts a general real estate and
collecting agency business; he is also a
notary public.
