| Pendleton is a city located in northeastern
Oregon on the
Umatilla River. The seat of Umatilla County, Pendleton is located about 188
miles east of Portland. The Umatilla Indian Reservation is adjacent to the
east. Agricultural processing is the leading industry in Pendleton, and the
city's main products include flour, canned and frozen vegetables, woolen
clothing and blankets, and Western leather goods. The city is famous for the
Pendleton Round-Up, a rodeo held each September since 1910. Pendleton is
also the site of a community college. The city was established in the late
1860s and incorporated in 1880. In its early years, Pendleton was a staging
point for cattle drives from Oregon to Idaho and Montana. Pendleton thrived
after 1889 when the arrival of a line of the Northern Pacific Railroad made
it a center for the Columbia River Basin wheat industry. The name
commemorates George H. Pendleton, a Democratic candidate from Ohio for vice
president in 1864.
