In close proximity to the flouring mills and site for the paper manufacturing establishment there is a good saw mill owned by our enterprising fellow citizen, Mr. Goo. V. Wheeler, who places his IuuiIht at small, reasonable rates, that any who contemplate building must be satisfied with the prices. Within the city proper Messrs. Wiley & Walton own a fine steam planer and sash, door and window blind manufacturing establinh- ment. Mr. K. Goan conducts and owns quite an extensive furniture and undertaking establishment, where may be bought a cradle for the infant, a desk for the school boy, a fine fiit out for the newly raiirried pair, easy chairs for old age and a comfortable casket for the dead. In fact he is willing and able to furninh you anything in his line ot most reasonable prices. Mr. Goan has juHt added a line steam lower to his manufactory. Messrs. Hyde t Cross own and run a steam chopping mill, and are doing a fine I u"m;" 'wiaoKiwrns are ocingj made for the erection of a foundry , and machine shops. Other imnor tarit enterprises will soon material ize, not the least important of which is the contemplated ditch from Chcadlc's falls on the Bantiam to Lebanon. A company has been formed and the necessary stock subscribed to incorporate.

II. Ralston, Esq., i with ample capital to meet the i wants of its customers, does busi-i ness on a broad basis and is an efficient factor to the business in terests of our town and community. Mr. llalston is "the principal owivr of the. various additions to the town of Lebanon, while Messrs Kirkpntrick and Dodge and Mr.'iin Jonathan Wnssom also own vahuv ble additions to the town. These gentlemen are all without excep tion, conservative, level headed men, who deprecate anything like a boom unless there is a solid real ity behind it. They place their properties on the market at such prices that parties seeking invest ments are astonished at the moder ate prices asked for Lebanon prop erty in comparison with that asked and obtained for lots and blocks in other towns with not one-quarter the present advantages and future outlook of this one i f the 'most prosperous towns in the Willamette valley.

N. Wright and .a corps of assistants, and the public school with Professor Hickman as Principal, guarantees to the people of Lebanon and vicinity that edu cational interests are well looked after. In addition to the schools there are three churches, the Methodist, Cumberland Presbyter ian and Presbyterian, all in a prosperous and growing condition. Lebanon's location. Lebanon is located on the south bank of the south fork of the Ban tiam river, in the very center of Linn county, which is the finest grain-growing country in the state. On the west is the famous Albany Prairie, good for grain, grass or fruits. Lebanon is built at an elevation of about 110 feet above Albany, which gives it good drain age. It is at the terminus of the S. P. It. It. with three trains per day. We have pure water and plenty of it, pod schools and churches. Tho Albany and Banti am canal taps the Bantiam river near our town, giving us good water jM)wcr at the north end of town, which is owned by a company that is making arrragements for the erection of paper mills at this j)int. This canal also gives us cheap transportation for wood and lumber to the citv of Albany, thir teen miles northwest of here. . THE EMIGRANT'S l'AUADISE. Lebanon is the emigrant's para dise. It is located in a land famous for its fine agricultural products of every variety; a land where grows tlie largest and best variety i iruns to ic lound in reaay to put on loot any measure which is for the welfare of its future yP way be seen by l" adl.ncB8 111 ,JJ they pull ilwr ln competing for any great lndu8trv- They raised a bonus of ' .: ul,HlBitJ1,J uouu ior a paj)er mill in two and one-half days, and they are already reaping the bene fits of their sacrifice. Although the paper mill is not yet built, it is an assured fact that it soon will be, tor tlie contracting parties are now ,thV VllHt lakin" ,arranPUt and giving orders to have the nee essary machinery made. In view of all of these facts can we do more than say that the emigrant can do no better than cast his lot among us? No; it would be absurd to think of not doing so. The facts recorded in this article sre for the millionaire and for the laboring man; for the old and for the young; for the weak and for the strong; for men with a trade and for the man without; for everybody and may they take heed thereto and direct their feet hither, tho sooner the better. ITS INHABITANTS. There are in the neighborhood of one thousand inhabitants in our town at the present time, although it will no doubt nearly double that amount during the present year. there is not a man in town, to the knowledge .,f the writer, who does not confidently believe this. And why should they not? It lias the position, the wealth and the indus tries to do ho. The people are genial, courteous and obliging, and the best of society may be found here. M'SJXBSS ME.V. The, business men are of the most water m t hp stnto..

This she owes to the lib erality of the merchants, who arc using every honorable means in their power to secure the surround ing country trade. INM'STIUES. Her industries are numerous and of various kinds, a few of them being saw mills, a grist mill, plan er, furniture shop, hrness and sad dlery shop, blacksmithing shops, and many other things too numer ous to mention. CONTEMPLATED INDUSTRIES. The contemplated industries of our town arc numerous and of dif ferent kinds, and all of them worthy of much attention. We I call especial attention to the paper miu which will Imj built next summer, and for which machinery' is now being made. This industry will benefit all classes to a greater extent than anything else we could get. It employs the laboring men and scatters $4U(X) per month among them; increases the value of real estate very materially; uses all the straw throughout the country, thus being a source of revenue to the farmers, who, every year, burn thousands of tons of the finest straw for which thev have no use. Also a cannery and tannery are much talked of, though no steps have been taken to secure them, but they no doubt will be during the coming summer. WATER POWER. A fine water power is just north of town and almost within the city limits. A project is being heralded to build a water ditch from a Kint a few miles above town to connect with the Bantiam Canal, the ditch to bo called the Lebanon Canal.
