Monroe Burglary.

David NJ. Saunders, notorious rough,
the son of Laban and Eliza Saunders who
live near Monroe, and who have contributed
to keep that neighberhood in an suproar for
several years past, the son on last Saturday
night sometime between midnight and three
o'clock next morning broke into the store of
Adam Wilhelm in Monroe, making the en-.
trance by taking out a pane of glass. He
burglarized the store, taking therefrom sew
enteen pocket knives, about eight pounds of
tobacco, one dozen fish lines, oae pipe and
one razor. He was arrested and taken be-
fore Justice Shannon of that precinct last
Monday and was bound over to await the
pleasure of the gland jury. 1t is likely that
the state penitentiary will receive its proper
visitor after the next session of court. 1t
would be lasting benefit for that commu-
nifty and especially for the taxpayers Of
of Benton county if the old man, and the
old woman and the son could all be sent to
the penitentiary for their natural lives, for
the reason that they seem to be getting in
to petty disturbances all the time, which
makes great deal of cost and expense to
our county taxpayers, besides disturbing
the quietude of things about Monroe.

The United Press.

The Associated Press monopoly has seen
its best days says an exchange. Before long
daily papers in Oregon that have been un-
able to get the latest dispatches, will be
filled with the latest and most reliable news
The United Press. corporation that fur
nishes all the latest dispatches is coming
this way, and before long here in Oregon
even the weekly papers can get the latest
news from all parts of the world just before
going to press. 1t is q good thing for the
country and very few Oregon people at least
will have any sorrow for monopoly that
has compelled them to subscribe for GER
tain paper in order to get the news. Jour
nalists will stand on their own merits here
after in getting subscribers, for which,
let every honest citizen feel thankful.
Hurrah for the United Press.

An Iowan's Views.

Speaking of our state, the editor of the
Muscatine Daily Journal, says:
Well, what of the country as a whole
Candidly, in many things it vastly sur
passes Iowa. For wheat raising, portions of
Oregon are not to be excelled by any other
part of the world. In fruits, they also ex
eel Iowa. The climate. too, it must be ad-
mitted, is more desirable, though in por-
tions of Oregon frequent rains and excessive
moisture in the air have caused it 10 be
called ''the land of the web footed" In
fact, the moisture is little too much, as
we should judge from the frequent moss
covered roofs. Cold and severe heat. how.
ever, are unknown. But what are the
drawbacks? The chief of these is remote
ness from the principal msrts of the world.
However great the productions of the soil
the surplus, after home wants are supplied,
cannot be disposed of to advantage, 1t is
estimated that at the lowest possible rates
at which railways can carry freights, it will
cost $l5 to bring the average steer from
Oregon to competing point with the Iowa
steer The same cost attends transporting
grain.
If the water route is resorted to, it is by
way of Cape Horn, making distance of
l9, 600 miles and voyage of eight to ten
months. This one drawback therefore, is
quite serious, if none other can be named,
and we must confess it is the only great
one we could discern. On the whole, the
Pacific coast is grand country, where peo-
pie can live comfortably and pleasantly on
the finest products of any soil. But we
Ioawans cannot forget our own native or
adopted land.
S. A. Cravath, editor of the Grinnell
uowa) Herald, writes as folio ws in his pa
per concerning the Willamette valley:
1.-The trip down the west sile of the Will
lamette brought repetition OF the scenes
and receptions on the other side. The
memory gropes helplessly amid such sue
cession of ovations for saliant points. There
remain with it the picture of delightful
valley. music, flowers, fruits, cordial greet
ings. 1t was not the fault of the dwellers
in the Garden of Oregon, if the Iowa edi-
tors were not made to believe that for three
days they were in the vale where Ceres and
Pomona and all the otker gods of earth and
air had emptied their choisest blessings"

severely sprained Ankle.

On last Sunday o r Addition had his frey
team hitched up and invited few of the
boys to a drive, among whom was Jake
Weber When about four miles, from
town the horses began ''cutting up" and
the use of the whip by the drip-
er only made matters worse, as they began
kicking and trying to run away. The in
vited guests began jumping out of the buggy
and as Mr.. Weber jumped he sprained his
ankle very severely. He was brought back
to town as soon as possible and medical aid
notified. Drs. Lee, assisted by a number
of our citizens, labored for over two hours
in trying to get the bones of the foot back
in proper shape, but without success. The
astragalus, or upper bone of the foot, is yet
dislocsted and physicians say it never will
go back in position. Mr.. W. is young
merchant in our city and his sad misfortune
was learned with deep regret. His perma-
nent recovery is hoped for, but it is feared
the worst has not been reached.

state Teachers Association.

The association of teachers convened at
Astoria adjourned last Friday night. The
attendance was something over two hun
,lred teachers throughout From Benton
county we saw Prof. Joseph Emery of the
Agricultural college, Pres. G. Nj. Miller, II.
Sheak, j. nj. Rankin and Miss Ella Dick
man, of Philomath college. Profs. Emery
and Rankin lectured before the institute
and were well received. Prof. Emery has
taught in Oregon about eighteen years and
stands among the leading educators of Ore
gon. Pres. Miller, recently from the east,
and spairs no pains in making points for
the excellent school which he represents.
We were also pleased to see Miss Nettie
Spencer formerly of Corvallis, but later of
East Portland. Miss Spencer received her
honors from the Agricultural college and
receives as fine salary fo" her services in
the East Portland school as can be allowed
any lady.
The discussions of the ASSOCIATION were
very interesting and instructive. The State
Superintendent is very fortunate in secur-
ing the aid, on such occasions, of all the
leading educators. Contact with such gi-
eantic minds as were assembled at Astoria
is inspiring and finally conducive of Superior
results.
The excursion to nwaco was a success.
Of course, some were careless and uncon-
cerned while riding over the rough waters,
but felt better when they had thrown up
their dinners to feed the hungry fishes of
the mighty deep. Good instrumental and
vocal music was afforded during the trip.
Numerous points of interest were visited.
On our return to Astoria Prof. Emery on
invitation delivered highly eloquent yet
extemperaneous address before the excur-
sionists. On Friday night the association
, closed with grand entertainment in which
money was raised to defray the expenses of
the institute. On Saturday morning every
body returned home rejoicing. State Supt.
McElroy has successfully wound to close
his third State Teachers Association.

Fruit Raisers Attention.

!. The Economy fruit drier at Woodcock
4 Baldwin's, Corvallis, Or, utilizes the heat
on common cooking stove, which enables
the drier to work successfully during the
time when meals are being prepared for the
family on the same stove, thus enabling the
operator to dry rapidly and with no ex-
pense. 1t will dry four or five bushels OF
apples per day and other fruits and vegeta-
bles in proportion. Every family should
have one in order to save without expense
the fruit which goes to waste, thus making
clear gain of all dried. The price is a
mere nothing aud within the reach of all.
Only twenty dollars for machine complete
and will do as good work as any of the
high priced machines which cost ten times
as much

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
Mrs M q. Drummond Thrown from q Hack
and Instantly Killed.

Death is always an unwelcome visitor,
whether it claims for it's prey the sucking
babe or the hoary headed veteran, but prob
ably the saddest death that ever occurred in
our city happened last Monday. Mrs. NJ.
H. Drummond, of Davisville, California, has
been visiting friends and relatives in our
city for the past three months Her mother
Mrs. Galloway, who resides about seven
miles north of here, was reported danger
ously i'll on last Monday, and Mrs. Drum
mond desirous of visiting the bedside of the
sick, arranged with Willie Taylor to bs
driven to her mothers residence. The hack
started about half past 2 o'clock, containing
Willie Taylor as driver, Mrs. Drummond
and her seven months old babe. In the out
skirts of town the fry team took fright at a
hand car on the west side railroad track and
commenced running away. Willie held to
the lines, but the frightened horses could
not be checked, and on turning a corner near
the residence of Judge McFadden, the hack
was turned over and the three unfortunates
thrown violently to the ground. Men and
women soon ran to their assistance, but 'im-
agine their horror when they discovered that
Mrs. Drummend's neck had been broken,
causing instant death. Mr.. Taylor received
a few slight bruises, but the little innocent
babe miraculously escaped without the
slightest injury. The sad news was imme-
diately telegraphed to her husband in Davis
vile, California, who arrived here this
| Thursday afternoon.
Thus another of earths brightest satellites
has been called across that horrible bridge
that spans the chasm between time and
eternity. Death has claimel one of the
favored few, and the entire community is
left to mourn her untimely demise Mrs.
Drummond was % years old, and the daugh-
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Galloway, of
this county. She was married to Mr.. Drum
mond year ago last M.rch, and has resided
in California ever since, up to the time of
coming here on visit nearly three months
ago. She leaves a husband and babe, an
aged father and mother and number of
brothers and sisters, who have the heartfelt
sympathy of the entire community in this
their sad bereavement.

Those parties who have threatened to sur.
prise this office by bringing wood to nav
their subscription to the GAZETTE will do 40
at once, or forever cease their threats, as it
is desirous to get wood cut and put in the
shed before harvest, and because parties who
so carelessly threaten to deliver wood after
harvest are always prevented from filing
their engagements by the early rains and
their fall work. Another very important
thing for those wing deliver wood is to come
to the office before unloading the same and
learn where it should be unloaded, and after
it is nicely corded, come again to the Office
and see that they are credited on the books
for the value of the wood. There is a cor
