Mitchell, Oregon once more baa a Senator that in point of ability has no superior and few equals. The "despised Mitchellltes," as some alleged Republicans hereabouts art pleased to term them, seem to be doinj pretty well just at the present juncture. One of the greatest benefits Oregon will receive from n first-class exhibit at the PanAnierlcan Exposition will be emancipation from the shadow of Cali fornia, in w hose name now many of her nnest products are put on the market. When Oregon is known for what she really is, she will stand second to none in tho.United States in reputatiou. t t t The vanguard of the army of home seekers that are coming to the Pacific Northwest this seasou arrived in Tort land last week. A $30 rate from Chi cago, with step-off privilege at any points desired, is the big inducement that is bringing so many this way. It is to be hoped that all purchasers of return tickets via the Southern Pacific will be granted tho privilege of stopping off at points through the Williamette Valley without having to pay extra local rates. If some inducement of the kind is not made, this portion of Oregon will receive but little benefit from this added immigration, and Washington and East ern Oregon will gel it all. Honor to Whom Honor Is Due. While the "Guard" and "Register" are airing their personal grievances, as they did during the State t lection, they should be just and give credit whore it is due. Is it not a fact that Mr. S. II. Friendlr, although not a member of the Legislature, furnished facts and figures that in a great measure influenced the legislative committee to report favor? ably on the University appropriation bill and the members to vote for it? And is it not a fact that Messrs. Friend ly, Chambers and Woodcock are "en titled to some credit lor the defeat of the attempt by Linn county to annex part of our territory? The Bcturm does not wish to detract one iota from the splendid records msde by Repre sentative Harris and Senators Booth and Knykendall, at this session, neither does it want to see those gentlemen who sacrificed their time and money for the benefit of the people entirely ignored when it comes to the bestowal of honors. With this issue the Bcu.ef.ix begins the third year of Its existence. It wil be our aim to give our readers a better newspaper than in the past, which will be possible as its patrcnage increase ar.d to devote its cohimi s to the up building of Junction City and this por tion of the Willamette Valley. Thoa sands of immigrants from the Eastern States will visit the Pacific Northwest iu the near future looking for locations The Bclletijc will endeavor to place be fore these homescckcrs the advantages in climate and soil and the wor.derfu resources of our beautiful Valley. We hope that our efforts in th!s direction will be appreciated. We thank those who have favored the paper with their patronage In the past, and will try to deserve a continuance of same.
