AN OREGON ENTERPRISE. A Brief Description or the Cnreer of the Oregon furniture Jilnmifdclurlnc Company and Ii Product. Prosperity nnd Succea A"bndunt. Oregon yet is a young stale in yearn, young in her developments, young in the product of her re sources. Jortlnnd, her representative city, leads the way in all the undertakings of magnitude and importance and is looked to by the entire North Pa cific for examples worthy of emulation. In reflect ing over the situation and scanning the field for an industry to select as a prominent example we find -the Oregon Furniture Manufacturing Compauv well suited to our purpose, which is to show our readers -what a world of wonders He about us, only awaiting the magic hand of industry, energy and persever ance to "bring forth such fruit a the world cannot surpass This company, its career and present po sition will serve us well and If the kind reader will accompany us upon our tour of investigation through this establishment we will endeavor to interest them, Away back, many years ago, an association or far-seeing, energetic gentlemen organized them selves into a company lor the purpose of hewing our native woods from the then almost unbroken forest and transforming them into AIITICLKH OF KL'CN-ITUJii: TTl.m'-'ut the wants of a rapidly-growing hamlet With eyeful business economy the enterprise wok conducted, and as the hamlet grew into a thriving village, the village into a prosperous town and from that on .through the maze to become th" queen city of the Pacific northwest, in like proportion did the Oregon Furniture Manufactory ouild up its walls enclosing one of the most extensive trades of anv similar undertaking within the pale of that fertile garden - where rolls the Oregon." The founders in fact builded better than lhev knew. will pass on down to the present time, and find as president of this mammoth institution Samuel J.owenstein. fcsfj. This gentleman is a graduate in the avenue of industry In which he is engaged, and as a shrewd, far-seeing, business man, having comm-nced at Use base and by untiring industry surmounted everv ob stacle until reaching his "pres. nt important position at the head of the leading furniture house t the clue. Jn this we do m,t t.rr. as this e-eiiimtnv can turn out as line work ns cn be fund in Ami'ri. a. liy honeit dealing, strict attenti.m to busin.M. courteus treatment ot patrons, he has w .;i f.,r him self and the eojnpany tne con(Jene- i f Hie peoiile.

He is an energ'tie, wide-awke bwlu, km num. ami known as a public spirite-el -itixn. uv l-mve-meut to benefit the city at iarge iim! him in the lrout ranks, bearing his ptiMHirtiem of the es.ens. and labor. One iutnce proves this, and that is the position he oevupie-s as one of the direct. of the Port and Mi-diiuties' Fair Association. '.Villi the gntlemeu condu ting tli-- destinies of this conmam i reiain us prominent positional the Jie:.d of the manula.turing interests in Oregon and on the I acilic coast The shops occupy a bage three storv brick building on the corner of Fr.mt and .Madison streots, and are made up of the latest and mo t ap proved machinery in every depni tment. Those ma chines are driven by an immense sixtv-horse power engine, and during the livelong dav the mingling songs of swlttly moving machinery make a grand oratorio of industry within tho.-e walls. Mon than sixty men are here employed, besides the large number in the upholstery shops and -ton, giving to that number of families food and clothing, bv this company, which in itself is a pleasure to the officers to contemplate, and proves thi a labor giving insti tution ol which our city should feel promt Had we a few more such enertritic establishm. ..i n,-.. gon of to-day would soon pass from fad and mem width as the space between the pillars. All portions are highly polished and we do not Juesitate in saying it is one of the most elegant single pieces ever exhibited in Oregon. The bedstead is in perfect keeping with the richness of carving and de sign displayed on the bureau. Its panels are genu ine polished ebony, the carved walnut being perfec tion, the whole forming a perfect study, and to be appreciatedmust beseenexamiued. It is a specimen of workmanship that any establishment on earth need not feel ashamed of. The washstand and commode combined is also a perfect beauty, composed of ebo ny, walnut and burl, surmounted by a handsome marble slab. In the center of the booth is a very HANDSOME KliONV TAltLK inlaid with marquetre! of artistic design, and fin ished in fire gilt. The bed is made up and to the tired visltor at the fair has a particularly inviting appearance. The spread and pillow shams are real hand made lace of oriental pattern, the work of Mrs. Mondt and which add no little to the general beauty of the bedroom A patent rocker, upholstered in maroon ami old gold trimmed with wine colored satin occupies a conspicuous place In one corner of the booth, and receives its share of admiration. Aside from this the company exhibit several articles be longing to and the work of private parties, of which we will mention a beautiful patent rocker and foot rest, upholstered in black satin upon which peacock leathers had been worked with the needle bv Miss Stephens; an embroidered ottoman, represent inir rusty wheat upon a black hatin background, the w v .i .Miss A. rtork; an ottoman upholstered in pniK .-atln and old gold by .Miss Ciertie Gallick. The upholstering work was done by M.r.y Gallick, who learned ills trade in the shop ol the company. An ottoman representing "('onteiited Pussy," in raised embroidery by Mrs. Harry C. Uredin. Other articles of leser importance go toward giving a finish to the magnificent dispbry. We have thus given a very brief description of the origin of the Oregon Furni ture .nunuiacturing company and the nrotrross it has made during these years in onbr to show what enterprise and energy combined will do. It started in on a small scale and gradually expai.dod and add ed to until to-day it stands a monument of pride among wie manuiacturing establishments of the Pa cific coast. Just such men as are at the head of this company are still needed in On-iron to onen mid do velop her neglected resources and in turn launch up on the ocean of tragic articles of vertn such as anv country on the globe would linger eiwr with pride miei satisiactiou. SOUKS ory. At every lair or exhibition of consequence maj be iouud articles of furniture open for public in spection, taken from their general stock. no time to make articles They have KSl'KCIAULV mil KXKJIUT, And therefore the articles mav be accepted as fair samples only of their usual workmanship. The company takes pleasure in showing the diplomas and medals received, such as from the Paris Imposi tion, the Centennial at Philadelphia and Oregon btate Agricultural .Society for articles no other fur niture lactory on this coast could show. Their medals arc gold, silver and bronze, and are marks of distinction they have just cause to feel proud of and ex .tbit to their friends and the public with a great degree of satisfaction. The warerooms of this com pany are located on the corner of First ami Yamhill streets, und comprise several immense apartments, filled to overflowing with various articles of beautv and value connected with their trade. Their carpet department is composed of latest patterns in end less profusion and the entire stock consists of staple goods. Having given this brief description of the -business of the company, we will visit the Mechan ic s Pavilion and take a peep at the articles thev have on exhibition the re. Passing in nt the main entrance we make our way to the northern gallerv. At the he-ad of the broad stain-as- our attention is first atttacteul by the magnificent display of furni ture. We will pass on to the opposite end so that we may travel from vest to e-ast. The exhibit is di vided into three apartments, the walls being draped with old gold and silver sheen, raw silk, upholste-r-lug goods bound with inniii-colored border: Three handsome chandeliers illumine the booths to the lightness and Thk Old Soxes.

If the texture of those now silent dirties was occasion ally coarse, it was entirely free from an unwholesome savor. The fun in them was the rough fun of b?tck-slappiiiK, rib- puneJimK iarees of the period. Kobust, and not seldom clumsy, humor, but unquestionably humor. "John Jones, ""10 '.nv n I'TuJi" "'Pl. fK,..

In a neat upright snow -case they present some extra fine fishing rods and tackle, pistols and other sporting goods, which takes iho eve of all true sportsmen.
