of the matter Mr. Walker said.
" It is our intention to bring as much of
the trade of the valley to Sau Francisco as
we can. We have been working against
big odd, but wo thiuk we now see ouv way
clear to re-establishing the old friendly feel
ing which existed once betweou the mer
chauts of Sau Francisco and those of South
ern Oregon. It was for this purpose that
we organized 'this excursion, and it was
found at once that Portland was in for a
fight. The wholesalers of the latter place
naturally are going to do all they can to
hold the-trade, and the Southern Pacific is
standing in with thein. Strange as it may
seem, the latter corporation b doing all in
its power to prevent a bit of our trade from
coming to this city, bus we are going to
counteract it if we can.
REACHING FOR TRAFFIC "
" Some timejago we couceived the idea of
bringing the merchants here in order that
they might get better acquainted, aud in our
efforts we were ably seconded by the board
of trade. If we can increase the tralnc
north wo will put another steamer on to
Yaquin l, and we can laud gaols in Oregon
for less money and.almost as quickly as the
Southern Pacific."
Knowing that the party was on its way
and was expected to arrive yesterday morn
ing, elaborate - preparations were made for
their reception and entertainment, rrcsi-
lent Watkius of the board of trade devoted
a great deal of his tiaie to the matter, aud
nothing was left undone that might in any
way tend to increase the comfort of the
visitors during their stay. ' He arranged for
a ban piet and for an excursion on the bay.
The result was that when the steamer Will
amette Valley docked at Broadway wharf a
committee consisting of Messrs. Nickels
burg of Kahn,'aNicIelsburg & Co. ; Dodge,
of Dodge, 3eeny & Co.; Jones of Jones &
Co.; Welluiaii of Wellman & Peck; Lipp
man Sachs of Lippman Sachs St Co.; Grant
of Murphy, Grant & Co.; II. L, Davis and
George Boole of Dunham, Carrigan & Co.,
were at hand to welcome the merchants to
the city. Itj had beeu. their intention to
board the steamer outside tho Heads, but
owing to the heavy fog the steamer was not
sighted until she was about to enter the
Gate, aud then it was too late. Tha mo
ment the steamer was jnade ft thOrego.'j j
merchants were given a neany greetiug ai;u
were driven to the Palace and Grand hotels,
where apartments h-tit 'diceo. provided for
them and where everything was done to
make them comfortable. . .
During the afternoon they were' shown
about th'city by various committees who
took them in charge.

One of the most prominent men iu the
party, is E. C. Smith of Eugene, who has
been a great many years a leading ' spirit-in
the commerce and politics of the great val- j
ley. ',
"There would have been a great many
more of U3 than there, afev'' he said, "but
we did not know until too late that such
elaborate arrangements had been made to
receive us.
GATHERING THE S1EKCHANT.3; '
"On the contrary, we supposed! i that we
were to take a quiet ruu down here, look
about for a few days and go homo again.
They tall me that it was all announced in
the papers, but, then, one hasn't the time
always to read all those things, and it was
not till Mr. Walker told us about if;,- a few
days ago, that we began to realize the im
portance of it all. Then I took a run up
and down the valley and got a lot of the
merchants together for the trip. - Another
thing that kept a good inauy away is tho
fact that We are now right in the midst of
our busy season, owing to the fact that the
winter was a very loug and cold one, aud
consequently everything is 4ate. ,
"I have great hope that this, trip will do
a great deal,, not only for San Francisco,
but for our merchant?. Tho Oregon Pa
cilie, under the management of Receiver
Hadiey, is doing all it can to bring pur trade
here, aud, I think they will succeed to a
large extent, Heretofore we. have been
completely at the mercy of the wholesalers
of Portland aud the Southern Pacific, and
; thelatter has taken about all it could get
out of itSi Just think of the fact that to
day our rates from"' Sau ' Franeisc'oj a !dis
tenee of over 7tK miles are ' cheaper by
steamer and the Oregon Pacific thau the,
arefioni Portland by the Southern, a, (dis
tauce ot only' 122 miles. 1 ' - .
LOOKING' TO 8AN FRANCISCO.
"Naturally we feel .very kindly toward
San Fraucisco, and recoguizing this city a
we do as he great trade center of the F '
cific Coast, we want to bo on the' best of
terms." ; , . ,
S. N. Wi'kins, of CorvaL'is, another oi
tjhe large dealers of Oregon, said:
"We think we have ai last succeeded iuj
getting away from the grasp of the South
ern Pacific. Of late the Oregon Pacific ha
done a great deal for us and, will . do niucbi
more. Coming down the Willamette river,
for example; I saw ' them loading' potatoes5
for San Franoisco, and was told they could
be.shipptd hero .cheaper than they could, to.
Portland.
Wo have in our valley, I sip'ald eaj-," a
population, of 250,000' people' to-day,- and
it is, without doubt, one of tho most pro
dactive sections of.j the Northwest." Tho
trade naturally belongs to this city, and
many of us buy here now, bui in times
gone by a kind of feeling grew up that San
Francisco carid very little for our -'trails.
The inrchaits here failed to send their
representatives among us as cftcu'as-yve
would hvae liked, and it looked as if they '
didn't care ' whether we bought or not.
Within the last year, however,'. there, has
baen a revulsion of feeling, and- it really
looks now a3 if the old trade relations
would be restored, '
BREAxrNC TIIK MONOPOLY. ' "
"Another thing that worked to tear-
down the old trade was the freight rate
charged by the Southeru Paciric. We found
it cheaper to buy in Mi nnr.-VTinlia r,i.l Sfc
Paul, but with the new rates given us by'
the Oregon Pacific v,e are confident that w&
can buy here cheaper than elsewhere.": ,
N. W. Smith of Albauy is also of the
party.
"This is my first trip to San Francisoo
foryear3,"saidhc; "but I think thai the
present excursion will Lribg much' of bur-
trade back to this city. Wo bought hero in
largo quantities years ago, but Ave were
forced to g'i elsewhere on account of high,
freights and tho seaming indiflertuca of tho
jobbers. ' Novj it seems to' mo, a new era
iacomiug on.'. There is no reason why,. Sau
Francisco should not get back all .htr lost
ground. As it is', we feel very' kii.dly to
the merohrtnts bero and, if we -can buy- asr
cheap as in Poitlan.l Or the east, we : mill
come here wi'U eur trade . to stKjv.. The""
Oregon Pacific has offered U3 better trans
portation facilities and the rates 'are "such-
that we cau afford now ta make the ' long
shipment." .,. ... :'.. .
