EXCELLEN T MAP AND WRITE UP. T he Southern Pacific has issued a most excellent m ap of Oregon, copies of which have been received by the Leader. It is rated as the most com pre hensive aud com plete m ap everpub- lished in large quantities, aud the review of the sta le ’s resources on the reverse side has been compiled w ith the utm ost care. T he publication m ade its first appearance at the great L aud and Irrigation Exposition recently held in Chicago, aud the dem and for it was am azing. We speak of this fact not merely to lau d the folder, but to em phasize the almost in sat iable hunger everywhere for tru st worthy inform ation about Oregon, and the increasing ueed for united effort on the part of O regouians to satisfy th a t hunger. T he railroad com panies respon sible for this publication have in augurated a cam paign of world wide scope to place it in the hands of every person who is anxious to know about Oregon, and we feel confident th a t Oregon Commercial clubs and new spapers can be relied upon for effective support in this worthy cause— the exploitation of O regon’s resources and advantages.
