This shows that sales are not confined to former residents of this local ity, but that people are swarming in from the East to make their homes among us. Tho business of this company is constantly Increasing. More than half of its sales have been made within the past three months, al though this is a season of tho year when sales are usually dull. The company has from 15 to 20 men constantly employed. It has representatives on Puget Sound. Ithas three men hi Portland, twoot whom give it their entire time. Rev. F. J. Strayer, who last year introduced so many immi grants into this State, is now In the East lecturing and distributing advertising literature exclusively for this company. He will start to this State with his first excursion on the 4th of April next. This company is now spending more money to advertise Salem and the surrounding locality than The Salem Board of Trade and Within the past twelve days for advertising Over Fita Hundred The second edition of the compa'ny's pamphlet descriptive of Salem and the Willamette Valley is now in press. This is an edition of TWENTY THOUSAND COPIES Of a beautifully illustrated fifty pago pamphlet. Wo cannot advertise so extensively in our home papers as we wish, for tho reason that parties whom wo most desire to reach are residents of the Eastern States, where these papers do not circulate. Wo do not advertiso every sale we make in the local press, but we have advertised in more than ONE THOUSAND PAPERS In tho East, as wo depend upon Eastern buyere for tho great bulk of .our patronage. During tho next few months our advertisement's will be read by millions df readers of Eastern newspapers,' who will thus bo placed in direct communication with .us, and nearly all of those who come to this canst will come ticketed for tho ofllce of THE OREGON LAND COMPANY. For these reasons parties desiring to sell will find it to their interest t place their lands in the hands of this company.

Hon. J. N. Delpii: I have the honor to acknowl edge tho receipt of your letter of February 24th, touching on a com munication you havo received from prominent citizens of Salem, Ore gon, urging tho establishment of a station at that place. I havo the honor to say frankly, that it does not seem to mo Hint such n station is required in the best interest of the publlo service. Thero aro now stations at Astoria, Port land, Boseburg, and on tho U.S. Military-telegraph lines, at Ashland Linkvllle and Fort Klamath, us also a station at Walla Walla, Just over tne line to the norm- unci at noise City, to tho eust. Tho Hon. Mr. Hermann has been very urgent that a station should bo established at Baker City. Tho hentiment of all the officers connected with predict ing duty is against the establishment of it station ut Baker City. But I havo iiad In mind tho possibility of establishing a station thero In the interest of Eastern Oregon, perhaps being obliged to move Bolso City to Baker Ci . Of course if it was agreed by i lie Oregon delegation that Salem fill .u Id have the station rath er than lloseburg, such u clmngo could bo made, though lu tho inter est of geographical distribution Eugene City would bo the moro preferable point. I am unfamiliar with tho growth of tho Oregon cities since 1880, und should be pleased to defer as far as possible, to tho wishes of yourself in particular, and tho Oregon delegation in general, In meteorological matters concerning the interests of that state.
