Portland Bee
The ''Portland Bee'' was a Republican newspaper in Portland in the U.S. state of Oregon in the late 19th century. It was launched in November 1875, the same year as the ''Portland Daily Bulletin'' disincorporated; like the ''Bulletin'', it had both daily and weekly editions. It initially had two daily editions, and circulated 1,000 free copies. Though fairly short-lived, the paper has been described as "a journal of force and influence in its time." It was quoted, and its contents syndicated, in numerous contemporary newspapers in its region, and contemporary papers also published general praise for the ''Bee''. Several of the many owners, publishers, and editors it had during its short tenure were family relations of the editors of other major newspapers of the time, ''the Oregonian'' and the '' New Northwest''. Shortly after the paper launched, and after its first ownership transfer, editor James K. Mercer killed the editor of the rival '' Portland Telegram'' in a duel. D. H. S ...

Oregon Republican Party
The Oregon Republican Party is the state affiliate of the United States Republican Party in Oregon, headquartered in Salem. The party was established in the Oregon Territory in February 1857 as the "Free State Republican Party of Oregon" and held its first state convention on April 1, 1859, after Oregon achieved statehood. The Republican Party was the dominant political organization in the state of Oregon from the time of the American Civil War through the 1960s, before moving to a position of approximate parity with the rival Democratic Party of Oregon for the next four decades. Since 2000, the Oregon Republican Party has become a minority party in state government, which has generally been controlled by Democrats. In recent years, the Oregon Republican Party has been the subject of significant controversy regarding the increasing influence of far-right organizations and militias within the party, especially during the presidency of Donald Trump. The party received national atte ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things already mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers.

Catherine Amanda Coburn
Catherine Amanda Coburn (, Scott; November 30, 1839 – May 27, 1913) was an American pioneer of the long nineteenth century associated with the Oregon Territory. Entering the workforce after the untimely death of her husband, she became a teacher and school principal and, later, a newspaper editor.
