Portland Telegram
Advertisement for the ''Evening Telegram'' in a national newspaper directory in 1894 The Portland ''Telegram'' was a daily newspaper serving Portland in the U.S. state of Oregon from 1877 until it was acquired by, and merged into, the Scripps-owned Portland ''News'' in 1931. The ''News'' had started out as the ''East Side News'' under secretive circumstances in 1906. The ''Telegram'' was a Democratic paper, despite its founder being a staunch Republican. History The ''Telegram'' was founded in 1877 by Henry Pittock, who had founded ''The Oregonian'' 16 years prior. His ownership connected the ''Telegram'' to the ''Oregonian''; while the ''Oregonian'' was a solidly Republican paper, the ''Telegram'' tended Democratic, in order to keep competitors out of the field. It is said to have dominated the afternoon news field in Portland until the advent of the ''Oregon Journal'' in 1902.

En:Pen Pictures Of Representative Men Of Oregon
A pen is a common writing instrument that applies ink to a surface, usually paper, for writing or drawing. Early pens such as reed pens, quill pens, dip pens and ruling pens held a small amount of ink on a nib or in a small void or cavity that had to be periodically recharged by dipping the tip of the pen into an inkwell. Today, such pens find only a small number of specialized uses, such as in illustration and calligraphy. Reed pens, quill pens and dip pens, which were used for writing, have been replaced by ballpoint pens, rollerball pens, fountain pens and felt or ceramic tip pens. Ruling pens, which were used for technical drawing and cartography, have been replaced by technical pens such as the Rapidograph. All of these modern pens contain internal ink reservoirs, such that they do not need to be dipped in ink while writing. Types Modern Pens commonly used today can be categorized based on the mechanism of the writing tip and the type of ink: * A ballpoint pen dispens ...
