-r CfJ glxe Snilij slovsm. ASTORIA. OREGON: SATURDAY -TAN. 13. 1SS1 B.C. IKEL.IM Editor. Oregon Improvement Company. It is rumored in Portland that all the vaht possessions of Air. Ben "Holladay in Oregon are to be sold to the Oregon Improvement com pany. The departure of Mr. T. F. Oakes, the manager, and Hon. J. 2sL Dolph, the resident attorney of the Oregon Railway and Naviga tion company, and the arrival at San Francisco of Mr- George "Weidler from the east, give the report some credence. The prop erty is extensive and is mostly situated in Multnomah county, as follews: The Willamet steam Mills and Lumbering company, capital stock $100,000, divided into 1,000 shares. The property consists of ten blocks of land in the northern portion of Portland, having a frontage on the river of 1,000 feet, and on which is erected the lumbering depot known as AVeidlcrs mills. The value of the property at the pres ent time is put down at 250,000. Oregon Transfer company, capital stock 200,000, divided into 2,000 shares. Clarendon hotel property, fronting 100 feet on North--first street, and running west 200 feet, valued at $50,000. The Holladay residence, corner Stark and Third street, real prop erty and personal effects valued at $40,000. Oregon Real Estate association, capital stock $1,000, 000, divided into 10,000 shares. The property owned by this cor poration includes a large tract of land in Fast Portland, known as Holladav's addition, and other real estate in the state, and is valued at about 500,000. The "Willamet Real Estate associa tion. The property of this incor poration includes a number of town sites along the lines of the Oregon and Californa roads. The estimate value of the property at present is $30,000. And also the Portland Street railwaj' company, capital stock 200,000, divided into 2,000 shares. The Clatsop property, consisting of 1,000 acres of land on Clatsop beach, two large hotels, three cottages, race track and stables and a large number of live stock. The sum of 75,000 was spent improving this property. The present value is estimated at $20,000. Steamship California in Sitka trade. Also in Portland, three lots fronting on First street corner of C, 50x100, and two lots on Second street, vest of same, -valued at 20,000. The Halsey residence on Fourth street, ad joining the Baptist church, valued at 7,500. One lot on Fifth street near Columbia, 50x100, valued at 2,500. Twelve blocks of land in the Couch addition six fractional and the remaining whole blocks. One farm of 1,200 acres in Polk county ten miles from Derry, part ly under cultivation. Estimated value, 15,000. One farm of 800 acres in Yamhill county, at St. Joe. Estimated value, 3,500. One farm of 700 acres in Washing- -toa county near Cornelius. A 4ract of 34 acres of land near the car shops on the east side road. Valued at 12,000. If this sale is consumated it will be the second largest sale ever made in Oregon. The sale of the Oregon Steam Navigation company to the Oregon Railway and Navigation company k being the largest. The total amount that will be received for the property is 1,500,000. The New Northwest has a. .correspondent in New York who writes as follews: "In the retire jnent of John Kelly from the office of comptroller, Samuel J. Tilden has complete revenge at last. When Tammany opposed his nomi nation in 1S76, though afterwards acquiescing in it, Tilden made a -row that he would have satisfac tion. This is Kellv's death blow as a political boss, but his friends say that he will sign numerous aflrfieath- warrants yet." Bosten Trade. The Boston Advertiser, in its annual review of the trade of that city says: The past year has been & prosperous one generally to those who haTe confined themselves to legitimate trade, and the various industries which are prominent here have been mainly satisfactory. In the early part of the year the advance in prices of Tarious com modities led to more or less specu lation and over-tradings but most of those who were tempted to specula tion had made money the previ ous year and only suffered the loss of what they had previously gain ed, so that there were comparative ly few failures. The exports of pro visions and breadstuffs have moved briskly, and the provision trade has been eminently satisfactory. The boot, shoe and hide and leather interests are highly satisfactory, and show a large increase over the previous seasons business. The drygoods trade has been profitable and satisfactory, and the. clothiers are closing up the seasons opera tions much better than they antici pated. Many of the woolen mills have suffcrod during the fall and winter for the lack of water, but they will have the satisfaction of closing out their joods at a better price than they would if produc-' tion had not been curtailed. The wool trade h:us labored under tome; disadvantages, but the coming year ' opens more favorably, and all the prominent interests are in good condition to share the prosperity which has come from bountiful crops and good markets. The law to enlarge the rights of married women, passed by the Oregon assembly at its last ses sion, seems to have favorably im pressed Gov. Perkins of Califor nia, lie recommends its adoption in that state. The Detroit Times thinks that the best thing Canada can do vrith its unfinished railroad is to bank rupt itself by buildinp: it. and then come into the United States to get out of debt. As an independent dominion, Canada is not a success. Previous to the late election Senator Davis of Illinois, though professing to be an independent, was accused of leaning about two thirds over towards the democrats. Since the election he has voted in the senate on every important measure with the republicans. It is said the senator would like very much to be reinstated on the Supreme-bench; but of course his change of front could not be influ enced by any such conditions. 23PfTin: Weekly Astokiax is an independent newiujer, devoted wholly and solely to the commercial and mute rial interests of Oregon, and will be sent on trial four months to any address in the United States on receipt of .SI (K).
