East
Portland P O
Multnomah County an
incorporated city, is pleasantly situated on the east
side of the Willamette River, directly opposite the city
of Portland. On the water front considerable of the land
is low, subject to overflow, and a portion intersected
with sloughs. Thence gradually rising and rolling for a
short distance, it merges into an alternately level and
undulating country, affording excellent advantages for
building purposes. The city presents a thriving aspect,
and its advantageous location, together with the
fertility of the surrounding country, insures its future
prosperity. It is nicely laid out with streets of good
width, and contains some substantial brick buildings and
fine residences.
The
population, according to the census of 1880, was 3918,
and is now estimated at 5,000. It is the terminus of the
east side division of the Oregon and California
Railroad, and upon completion of the Oregon Railway and
Navigation Co.'s road from Walla Walla to this point,
will be virtually, for a time at least, a terminus of
the Northern Pacific. Two excellent public schools are
maintained, having an attendance of six hundred and
eighty scholars. The churches organized are the Baptist,
Methodist Episcopal, Congregational, Episcopal,
Scandinavian, German Lutheran, Catholic, and United
Brethren. Of secret and benevolent societies there are
Masons, Odd Fellows, Ancient Order United Workmen,
Chosen Friends, and Patriotic Order Sons of America. A
hook and ladder company constitutes the full force of
the fire department. An excellent supply of water is
distributed through the city, from a spring which is
said to be the largest in the State, pouring forth a
volume of about 400,000 gallons in twenty-four hours.
The
Hospital for the Insane, located here, is a
well-conducted institution, and contains at the present
time three hundred and forty patients. Upon the
completion of the new State Asylum at Salem, it is to be
changed into a Reform School. The East Portland
Vindicator, a well-conducted paper, published weekly,
advocates the interests of the section. Communication is
maintained daily by rail with Roseburg, Lebanon, and
Brownsville, and twice a day with Albany. Three steam
ferries connect it with Portland.
