Those iutoruHted in tho advancement of the material Interests of Oregon need nnly to KlittiUM about them for ovi-1 dencos of a most KubHtantial character that unprocedentodly prnupprou condl-1 ' tlotts exist on every hand.

Portland led this progressive display nf trado revival by tho successful con dnrt of tho streut fair aud carnival, an enterprise never before approached in splendor and magnitude in the North west.

It will enter upon tho new century a thing of real life, an entity of now forces operated by now am bit ions.
