It is a well known fact and a laudable one, that tho citizens of J'ortland, and the Orc gonian in particular, use every effort in their power to bring into Tot-Hand any and all means of transportation, bo it by water or railroad communica tion. That every ellbrt is made to make Portland one grand railroad cen ter, thereby teeming to the business as cheap and low rates of transporta tion as possibly can be had; thus making their city tho grand cntorport and distributing metropolis of, the Pa cific Northwest. ut when one little city of loOO wishes to secure to them selves tho building into their section of tho county and their city an opposi tion railroad which in their belief will lessen thcr rates on freight, build up their town and secure to them all the advantages they now enjoy and the rivalry of two loads, tho bull dogs of war must bo let loose and hurled upon them in tho shape of vituperative cor respondence and editorials in that Ureal and only ucwxpuprr of tho North west which xcurim to do a mean act, the great Oregonian. . Hut the road is bound to come sooner or later. With all this opposition the full amount of the subsidy will be raised. Mr. Hunt will build tho road against all opposi tion of the Oregonian and tho gnash ing of its tooth. One reason of the op position of certain parties to tho in coming of tho Hunt road is, that if tho road is built tho county seat will not bo removed and Union will retain ita prestige, grow and become tho city of (Jrando Hondo valley. The fanning country around Union is equal to that of any in the' county. The soil is rich ami productive. He sides wheat, oats ami barley, which grow and yield abundantly, herd or timothy grass grows to perfection and clover is fairly luxuriant, in its growth. Tho population of Union is about 1500. It has a (ino school property worth $10,000, tho school building of brick being two storied A graded school is maintained with four teach ers. The average daily attendance is 200 pupils. Tho number of scholars drawing public money in the district is 27ir. Tho wages paid the teachers amounts to $2110 per month in tho aggregate. Tho value of taxable prop erty in tho district is 2!K,7l!r. Tho standard qualilieation of the teachers, their ellluiency in teaching, enables tho pupil to obtJiin a thorough com mon school education. A number of retired farmer,! make Union their resi dence for tho express purpose of giving to their children tho advantago of a thorough common school education previoun to sending (hum to higher schools. part of their supplies. There is also a line of stages which run to the mines from this place, carrying the mail and passengers and a large amount of trav el is daily passing over this route which is claimed to be the most feasi bio and nearest route to thes-j mines. Tho water power of Catherine creek is sufficient to supply almost an un limited amount of machinery if only utilized and it is only a matter of time when this power will bo used in largo and extensive manufactories of dill'er- cnt kinds. The citizens of Union aro a live and spirited class of people. This is shown by their exertions to secure the Hunt railroad, and the opposition of the Oregonian to Union and their project has only stimulated them to greater exertions and zeal. Success and vic tory will surely crown their ellbrts; for win they will in spite of all opposition and they are worthy of it.
