The Willamette Will Ua Navlf alasl The new steamboat owned by Eu gene people, and operated for the bene fits of ber business men, will without question, soon be a reality. Work Iim already commenced on the pattern for the keel and timbers are being cut for the same. Tne boat will be built near the OR&N dock and warehouse. Some trouble baa been experienced In getting lumber necessary, owing to the burning of the Goodute sawmill at Coburg, and the consequent shortage created thereby, but anangemenU are uow made whereby lumber will be procured at Harrlsburg and the work of construction will not probably be delayed longer. A contract has been made with O JN Frazer to build the engines, Insuring a first class equipment in that regard. The successful navigation ot the Willamette means a great deal to the business of this section, and their en- terprise in building this craft is deserv ing of great commendation. The new collector of customs, Ike Patterson, of Salem, is entitled to great credit for having been born in Oregon; It occurred in Benton county on sep tember 19, 1839. Ike has been coming up until he is about six feet and three inches tall and will hold one of the best paying offices in the state. Eugene Loan Of Eugene, Oregon, COTIL (Paid up) $50,0111 W. E.

Roeeburg Plilmlenler: "Whlln the people of Oregon expect the legisla ture at lis coming session will revise and overhaul the laws which provide for the expenditure of public moneys aud abolish every useless office and Commission to the end that every dol lar possible shall be savtd to the tax payers, we do not believe that the peo ple of Oregon ak t'tat a single dollar be withheld from any educational or charitable Institution In the state, which is necessary to maintalu Its use fulness or efficiency. There has been, and Is yet, a class o( demagogues In this state, and they are uot confined to any political party, who have declared against the expenditure of publlo mon ey for the support of the higher educa tional Institutions of the stato. To take the oeurse advocated by them would stamp the great and progres sive state of Oregou as one which bad determined te take a long step back wards. We do not mean that the mon ey appropriated lor these Institutions should not be expended with the great est possible economy, but that tbey should net be crippled by the with holding of tho necessary fuuds."
