WILBUR WRIGHT’S FATHER THE STATE FAIR
AND OTHER THINGS
TAUGHT IN SUBLIMITY
10th Session Legislative Assembly.
Territory o f Oregon, in the Council,
Dec. 12, 1857.
A Bill to establish a college at the
town o f Sublimity in the county of
Marioo.
Sec. 1—Be it enacted by the legisla­
tive Assembly o f the Territory o f Ore-
iron, that there shall lie, and hereby is
established in or near the town o f Sub­
limity, in the County o f Marion, a col­
lege, lo be called and known by the
name o f “ The Sublimity C ollege," and
that John Denny, Thomas J. Hubbard,
D. 8. Stay ton, Jesse Harrit, William
Bishop, Jeremiah Kenoyer David R.
McMillan, James Campbell, Allen J.
Davie, Hadley Hobson, Solomon Albri-
son, G. W. Hunt, James II. Chandler,
Morgan Rudolph and their Aasoeiates
and auccessora are hereby declared to
lie a body corporate and politic in law,
by the name and style o f “ The Trustees
o f the Sublimity College.” — ................
So reads an old paper in the posses­
sion o f J. P. Davie o f t h i s city.
The Allen J. Davie mentioned above
was J. P. Davie’s father, and Hadley
Hobson was the father o f W. II. Hob­
son, while G. W Hunt wan the father
o f J. T. Hunt of the Waldo Hills and
D. S. Stay ton was Mose Stay ton's
father.
The above college was organized by
the United Brethren people, and flour­
ished about 8 or 10 years.
The first president o f the college whs
Milton Wright o f Ohio, father o f the
celebrated Wilbur and Orville Wright,
known all over the work! as the origin­
ators o f modern aviation.
Mrs. H. J. Follis o f this city, who
went to school to President Wright,
still corresponds with him in his home
ia Dayton, Ohio, where he is a bishop
in the United Brethern church.
All o f the above goes to show that
Oregon is a pretty old country after
all.

MORE NEW PEACHES
J. P. D ivie brought in a few fine
specimens of an October seedling peach
that would stand investigation by the
County Horticulturist.
The peach is
if anything larger than the Muir, rich
yellow meated, fine freestone, excellent
flavor, and has every appearance o f a
good shipper and long keeper.

The Oregon State Fair has closed its
gates on what was perhaps the best
display o f Horticultural, Agricultural
and Stock exhibits ever put together in
one place in the history o f the state.
The fair was a success in every sense
o f the word, but to a keen observer of
the natural fitness o f things there

future. For instance:
Why advertise autos free entrance to
the grounds and then charge a dollar to
park the same, which probably would
not be so bad to but refuse to give a
receipt for the dollar, and perhaps the
next official that comes along “ touch”
you up for another.
Also, why run a bunch o f dirty,thiev­
ing Gypsies out o f almost every town
in the Valiev, and then let them rob
right and left (for a consideration, we
suppose) at the State Fair, although
personally we have no sympathy for
any person who enters one o f those
picturesque, (dirty red and green cali­
co) places to get their fortune told. For
our private opinion is that anyone who
believes in all that balderdash about
second sight telepathy etc. ad vomitum
deserves (almost) to have their money
taken away from them.
However, it was a good fair ar.d can
be made a much better one if a little
more good honest business sense is put
into the management.
