DEMOCRATIC SPEAKING.-On Tuesday
evening Hon. N. L. Butler, of Polk coun.
ty, spoke at the Court House to an indiffer-
ent audience. Mr.. Butler is not the oest
orator in the State but is man of good
common sense, and his address was about al
good as any Democrat who has been il
town during the campaign; but his hearers
were few, owing, perhaps to lack of adver
tisement. His speech was a repetition o.
the old story, and was quietly received.

THE REPUBLICAN RATIFY.-Last Satur-
day evening being the time previously fixed
that Senator Mitchell would speak in Cor
wallis. The Republicans also fixed the same
time to ratify the recent Republican victor
les in Ohio and Indiana, and the occasion
was one that made itself felt on the politi-
cal circles of Corvallis. A large delegation
from the Garfield and Arthur Club of AL
bany were present in uniform; about 1880 a
large number of Republican voters carrying
lighted torches and headed by the Second
Brigade Band marched through the street
stopping at the Occidental Hotel, where
they were joined by the speakers of the
evening, and thence to the City Hall which
by this time was well filed by an expectant
crowd. The Garfield and Arthur Glee Club
then furnished some excellent vocal music,
after which, Senator Mitchell was intro
duced and for two hours and half held the
audience as if spell bound. The large au-
dience room and the gallery of the City
Hall were filled to their utmost capacity, as
well as the aisle, and very many persons
were compelled to go away for want of
room A high compliment to Senator
Mitchell's speech was large number of per-
sons remained standing throughout the
whole two and half hours after the con-
clusion of the speech a procession was
formed bearing torches; this procession was
the largest ever fin Corvallis, reaching over
three blocks in length, and the torches were
all carried by men over twentY-one years of
age and not by small boys. The utmost de-
corum and good order was observed during
the whole demonstration, but the Republi-
cans showed by more ways than one the en-
thusiastic confidence they felt in the final re-
suit of the impending election. Benton
county is good for Garfield and Arthur on
the I'd of November next.

OBITUARY.

Mr.. Thomas Thrasher, an old and res
pected citizen of this county, died - p
long and painful iMhess, at his daughters,
Mrs. Harris Simon, on Butte creek, Uma-
tilla county, Oct. the 9th 1880, in his 10Th
year. Mr.. Thrasher came to Oregon in an
early day from Missouri and settled in Linn
county, where he lost his wife !; after which
he removed to Yaquina Bay where he lived
for eleven years. He was e<gaged in mer-
camille business while on the Bay for num-
Der of years, but his health failing him he
was compelled to retire from active hfe. In
the hope ofregaining his health he went east
of the mountains, but hA hopes were never
realized and he peacefully passed away from
earth to his final home surrounded by kind
and sympathizing friends, who did all they
could to alleviate his suferings and smooth
his dying pillow.
Mr.. Thrasher was kind husband, affec.
tionate father, true friend, good citizen and
honest man; he leaves host of friends te
mourn the loss. He was one of the early
pioneers who helped to fell the forest and
build up the Great West. One by one those
early pioneers are passing away, and soon
all will be sleeping beneath the clods of the
valley. Peace be to his ashes.

Mr.. Rodney stated thst as the bid
embodied the situation of the crusher,
and as it was N his ward he would ask
that the matter be postponed for two
weeks, in order that he might make
personal inquiry among those residing
in the ueighborhood of the quarries
that they might have chance to de-
muir if they are so inclined. In making
the request he stated that the proxim
ity OF the Hygiene Home might incite
some objection to the orusher.
Mr.. McMeuamin, Chairman of the
COMMITTEES, stated tina: the crusher
would be placed in the valley, and that
there could be- no possible annoyanc.
arising from the working Of the ma
