be at least 5000, 600, ,0O0.-Welcome.
NoTrcg u an mechanics in the building
trades, keep away from Portland, all
trades are out on a strike and more men
here now than is needed to 60 the work;

assessment Of Albany, fact We mention
simply on account Of the Eugene papers
occasionally comparing that city to Al
bany.
