About two months ago we sent

the attention of our Iowa friends to
our new venture. The result has
been that several hundred Iowa
newspapers, having circulation ol
from 500 to 5000 copies each hay,
taken editorial notice Of our write
up edition aud Us result most OF
them have spoken Of th9 city 81
Salem aud Of Oregon IN coDpli'
mentary terms. We give few
samples Of these notices below, III
abridged form. We have no desire
to bring out these pufis 80 far as
they are personal, but only to show
the good will manifested towards
our city In connection with this
mention of ourselves.
