A very handsomely illustrated pam phlet giving a brief history of the Or egoniaii newspaper of Portland and a description of its new building, just completed,' has been issued as a me mento, not only of the Oregonian of the past and of today, but in a degree, of the city of Portia-id. In 1850, through - the efforts of William W, Chapman- and Stephen Colli u, tw geiitiem- n who were tor many years afterward leading spirits in the deloj: menfc of the city, a plant was brought from San Francisco and the first num ber of the Oresonian issued on De ceinber 4th of that yr.ar, under th editorial management of Thomas J Dryer. The paper was to be a week ly, and the subscription price $7.00 per year. Mr Chapman hired a man to go on horseback and deliver the firai number as far as Corvallis (then Ma- rysville) on the west side, with insti uc Hons to cross here and deliver it on the eaitside upon his return. The pape met with financial reverses from time to time. In 1860 Mr. Dryer turned the paper over to Mr. H. I Pittock in payment for his services as printer, Mr. D. having been appointed to office by President Lincoln. Mr. Pittock has since been the business manager of the Oregonian, and it was due to his efforts that the paper was at 1 placed upon a paying basis. On the 4th day of February, 1861, the first number of the Daily Oregonian was issued. Among those who edited the paper after Mr. Dryer's time were Sim eon Francia, Aniory Holbrook, John F. Damon, S. A. Clarke and W. Lai Hill. Mr. H. W. Scott took final ed itorial charge of the paper in 1877, Mr. Scolt had come to Oregon in early boyhood, educated himself amid grea difficulties, and, as the narrative states, was glad of an opportunity to show hi willingness to work. Mr. Scott dis cusses with ability a wide range of sub jects, and in editorial work of a gen eral character he has few equals- He has a clear and forcible style and ex presses his ideas without regard popular notions. Altogether the peo pie of this stata have good reason to regard the Oregonian with pride. a F. MKUCHANTS EXCURSION. to TUE OREGOSIAS BUILDING. The Oregouian's new "building, of which the accompanying cut is a small representation, is the finest newspaper building on the coast, and it is one of the best occupied by any newspaper in the world. It is absolutely fire proof, being constructed throughout of stone, iron.'steel, brick and terra cotla, and in all that goes to make up a perfect building it is one of the best construc ted edifices in the western states. It will long stand as a monument to the enterprise of the men who built up in the northwest metropolis one of the now recognized great newspapers of the United States, and to the natural resources which have made it possible to build up such a paper in Portland. Quite a number of young ladies and gentlemen of Corvallis are improving their time this summer by the study of geology, John M. Rea, who has made himself thoroughly acquainted with that branch of science having kindly consented to conduct the class, which meets at his home every Monday af ternoon at 3:30. All those interested in making themselves acquainted with mother earth as she is seen in Benton county are cordially invited to join the class. Notice of other classes to be formed iu the near future will be givsn due time. There is just now going on a readjustment of business relations pretty generally all over the country. There are vatiore dis turbing elements aud into what chauueN trade will finally settle it is impossible to determine. Tbe freight rate problem, among ether things, is agitating the commeicial in terests of the Willamette valley and South ru Oregon in this state, but it is hoped that it will shortly be duteViiiinbd tt the besi advantage for a!l coucerued. luis question has very much to do with our relations with San Francisco in a bu'iness way. Corvallis, Albany and other cities reached by the Oregon Pacific traffic lines have received immense benefits from trading with San Francisco, and those lines have acted as one check to extortion by the S. P. company. If, now, the Orecon rail road commission will do its duty and inau garate an equitable rate on the S. P. lines the San Francisco m.irket will be opened to more extensivo territory in Oregon. The conditi9ns are now such that tbe San Fr.incUco. merchants feel justified in making an effort to obtain a more extensive inter change of products with this state and to this enl a delegation will arrive in Oregon Saturday evening on the steamer Willam ette valley. The excursionists number twentv-five members of the Sau Fiancisco heard of trade, six representatives of news papers, and 150 other residents of the Gold en Gate city. They ; will pass the Sunday on Yaquina bay where tbe people have ar ranged to give.them good entertainment. The services ot tin Marine Band of Corvallis have been secured for the occasion. The Business Men's Association of Corval lis and the firemen will have charge of the entertainment of the party in this city. At a meeting of the firemen Wednesday even ing the use of the firemen's apartments were tendered the Business Men's Association, tor the entertainment of tbe gnests. A committee, consisting of C. E Small, S. L. Klme, B. W. Johnson, J. W. Will and Frank Conover, were also appointed by the firemen to act as a reception committee. At a meeting of tbe association last even, ing, S. L. Kline, S. N. Wilkins, A. Hodes, N. H. Wheeler, T. Graham and J. H. Harris were appointed a committee of arrange ments; finance commmittee, N. H. Wheeler, Z. H. Davis, and John Simpson. The Mayor and counciltuen of Corvallis, Prof. Lotz and Dr. Applewhite, of the State Agri cultural college, Messrs. E. W. Hartley and C. T. Wardlaw, of the O. P. R. R. Co., a i j- . ... ana memoers ot lue Corvallis press were invited to act with the association in the entertainment of the guests. The party will start eastward from ,the bay Monday on the regular O. P. train, and will be met at Philomath by a delegation from this city. Upon their arrival the members of the S. F. board of trade will enter t carriages for the city and take luncheon. In the afternoon they will be driyen abnnt and given an op. portuuity of seeing the city. As tbe stables will not be able to furnish the necessary number of carriages for the occasion, those having private conveyances will confer a favor by placing them at the disposal of the committee of arrangements. The party will take a special train for Albany at 5 o'clock p. m., where arrange inents have been made to entertain the mem., bers in a becoming manner. From that point they will visit Salem, Eugene, make a trip to the front on the O. P., and return to the bay iu time to take the steamer which sails for San Francisco August 4th. Harrisburg will soon find herself without a ban!:; in fact it is practically so today. A notice has been placed on the door of the building requesting depositors 4o withdraw their money. The business of the bank is being closed up as rapidly as possible, and in a few days the doors will be closed. This action has been brought about by me continued siCKr.ess ot Mr. Kampy, mo uuun.tr i, uiu ii win oe oniy tempo rary if he can regain his health. Har risburg Courier. RESOURCES OF OitEGON. - San Francisco Journal of' Commerce. All of Oregon may now be reached by tbe lines of the Union Pacific from San Francis co, while the western and eastern sections of that state, including the Willamette val ley, can be reached by the Oreg'.n Pacific aud Southern facific. Ode of the great re sources of this section next to wheat grow ing U wyllgrowiug. In California here we produce about 35,000,000 pounds every year, but the encroachments of the wheat farmer aud the fruit raiser are driving the sheep meu of the state farther and farther back every year. While this is the case Oregon's clip is steadily increasing, and the field for further production is piactically illimitable. The annual production is now about 16,000, 030 pounds, and the value of wool, mutton, pelts, etc., yearly is not less than $3,500, 000. It is now comparatively easy to divert thU rich and growing trade to San Francis co. The wool-ia of the very best quality, some of the merino having good staple and resembling the Australian. Ootswold wools have been so improved by crossiug that while the strength of the original is retained it possesses greatly increased fiueness and softness, and there is in it noticeable an en tire absence of hair. Oregon can grow wool enough to ctothe the nation, while San Frau ciscb can handle the trade in it, and given the proper capital and proper skill, we can manufacture it here and sell the prodnets all over the union. There is no reason, too, why tbe woolen manufactures of Oregon, such as are not consumed in that state, should not find a market here and hence be distributed abroad. How such industries grow may be seen from the example at llbeins, in France, where in ninety years the manufacture of ineriuo has grown from nothing to employ 60,000 workmen and 200,000 spindles. The sheep and the wool of the world are not increasing accordicg to the needs of consumers, so that there is iu Orecon an illimitable field for work in this matter. - That the field has been open to San Francisco capital aud enterprise is due to the recent freight reductious.
