As we pen the wortls above there
comes in mind the oft repeated saying,
"Self praise i* half scandal." Still, as
the R ei ' outei : ha* never failed to coni-
uient upon, commend and l'in ouï age
every enterprise that has presented
itself in our fair land of progress, it
may not appear unfit for it to treat it
self as well as it doe* all others, by
culling the readers’ attention to the ev
idences of advancement visible to-da.v
in the improved ap|M*aiance of our pa
per.
The R eporter ’ s reading columns
ar*' now printed upon bright new type
throughout, direct from the foundry of
Messrs. Palmer & Iley of San Francis
co. After thoroughly stydying public
taste we have, by extra pains and ex
pense, secured that style of type which
we ar»* confident will prove most ac
ceptable. The print it produces is full
and clear, easily read and, altogether—
to our eye—is quite handsome. How
ever, we cheerfully accord to our read
ers the right to judge e»|ital with our
selves, and should our opinions fail to
agree, it assuredly will not be due to
lack of attention and effort on our
part.
But four weeks ago, the R eporter
entered upon its thirteenth year of
publication.
We had planned to
honor that occasion with the fine dis
play which we now present, but were
disappointed in getting material, and
were compelled to suspend the contem
plated birth »lay flourish, ami accord
ingly passed the day in "moody si
lence.” Let these few words be our
greeting. Let these elegant marks of
our handiwork be a token of the deep
friendly interest we cherish for the
country we reprosent. Let our teem
ing business columns portray the cor
dial appreciation and liberal patronage
which our efforts meet. In the future,
as in the past, it shall be our determin
ation to march in the front rank of en
terprise an»l progress, and shall fur
ther improve our paper ns the times de
mand it, trusting always as we must,
to a generous public for the support
necessary to sustain us in our endeav
ors toward that end.
A press of advertisements just now
crowds our reading space down to a
limit far below what we would like to
have it ; but this deficiency will soon
lie remedied. Should the flush of bus
iness show signs of permanency we
will further enlarge to meet the in
crease. With the best printing office
in Western Oregon, outside of Port
land, mid with the experience of years
in the business, we feel justified in as
serting our capability of pressing the
R eporter forward with the front
rank in the journalistic field, and sec
ond to no enterprise in the community
wherein we claim a homo and station.
The prospect is bright before us. We
shall strive to do our duty and merit
the public favor, ever thankful for
generosities bestowed, anil ever hope
ful for a continuation of the friendly
relations we have enjoyed with our
people, during the past half score of
years.
The flow of immigration to the
northwest coast is unprecedented, and
as a dispatch from San Francisco puts
it, “ It is a noticeable fai t that three-
fourths of the people shortly after
their arrival here (8. F.) find their way
to Oregon and Washington Territory."

GEN. GRANT,
The PoHtoflice Appropriation bill as
finally passed establishes two-eent let
ter postage to take effect Oct. 1, 1883.
While this reduction from the three-
ceut letter postage will be gratefully
received by the public, it will inflict an
estimated loss of four to five millions a
year nt first on the postal revenues,—
Between now and next October the de
partment will be able to get rid of a
large stock of stamped envelopes. The
three-ceut stamp is much handsomer
than the two-ceut, audit will be in or
der after the reduction takes effect to
interchange colors and designs. After
Oct. 1st, there will be comparatively
little use for three-ceut stamps.
By a separate measure the House of
Representativefl readjusted the pay of
postmaster, so that officers of the
fourth class will J receive under the
lower rate of postage about as much
pay as they get now. The bill also ad
justed the salaries of 47,000 postmast
ers, which the chairman of the commit
tee explained had been rendered nec
essary by the action of Congress in re
ducing the rates of postage, to take ef
fect on October 1st next.’ The bill re
tains the present classification of post
masters. The salary of the postmast
ers nt St. Louis. Chicago, Boston mid
Philadelphia was increased from 4,000
to $0,000, ami at Cincinnntti, Balti
more, San Francisco mid Washington
from $4,000 to $5,000. The compen
sation to second and third class post
masters us at present.
