What Ho Saw.
Tho N Y. Independent of tho Mth iust.
contains a letter from Joaquin Miller, its
traveling correspondent, who rece ntly passed
through this valley and stayed a IBM iu
Portland From this letter the following
clippings are taken:
I came down (be great Willamette valley
iu u bull day by rail from Eugene Cily, "the
heart of Oregon," tha placti of my last
letter. And I came down Ihiough one con
tinuous tnd uninterrupted Eeleii. Three
railroads run down this valley, which is
more than one hundred mile loug nud fifty
miles wide; and two railroads cross it, or are
crossing it. There is a tremendous building
impulse already here, Uilh in city and in
country. Little towns blossom all along on
either hand; and many u DM of these sud
den I' M, little towns is d. .tin. -I to serve
merely as stations fur accouimodaliou trains
(or many years to coine. Still, they all have
tine stone houses, nnd from one to a dozen
pretty church spires pointing heavenward
through Ihe "continuous woods."
These gn eii woods! Oh, these glorious,
restful greeu woods and greeu valleys and
green hills after Ihe glare of Ihe fevericd Cal
ifornia aim! This is suiely the most restful
hutd'thc traveler ever saw. Tho eye resl, the
soul and nody rest; for Uauly and prosper
ity possesses the land look where ymi may
One thing about these Oregon towns that
make them morn than ordinarily beautiful
is their abundant greens. You nearly
always see two rows id tree's on each street
Often some of the streets iu the best iitden d
of theso young towns have four rows of trees
as em Ihe broad aveuues id Washington Cily.
Another notable feature all up und down
this continuous line of resiful towns is the
school bouso aud the church edifice. At
some places you do not see more than aUmt
six houses; but oue nt least, uud the biggest
and the best, is a school house; aud pethaps
two of the remaining five buildings are
churches. But you do uot often find a lowu
so small as that; unless it be of this year's
crop of uewly planted towns.
