into small farms of such a large area of valu-
able and productive land around BAKERS

tion that will pour into this section of the
country, transforming the county into one
gigantic colony, with its countless number of
orchards and vineyards, drawing to il men of
enterprise and capital, BAKERSFIELD, with
its Incompatible water power, and other
natural advantages; with its railroad facilities
at hand, and the almost positive certainty of
being the terminal point of another line, will
grow to, and become, beyond doubt, city of
great proportions, and town lots will become
very valuable. Within the last year extensive
improvements have been projected and COM
pleted at BAKERSFIELD. The SOUTHERN

THE RIVER FRoNT.--The Bentley
arrived Saturday afternoon with
som e up freight and before leaving
Monday morning loaded on $500
feet of lumber at the sawmill here,
to be taken to Portland. The
Modoc arrived about midnight on
Monday and went on up to Finley's
warehouse after grain. Tuesday
morning the Orient touched the
wharf here and filled her lower
deck with 12O tons of wheat to be
taken down the river. In the
afternoon the Hoag blew her
whistle for landing at this city.
She had a considerable amount OF
freight for merchants Of Corvallis
and grain to be taken to Frisco.
About $50 a. m. Wednesday she
started down with 100 tons of grain
aboard.

OPENED ON DEC. 2.--Promptly
at 9 o'clock on last Monday morn
ing the public schools of Corvallis
opened Tor the first time in the
new edifce just completed for that
purpose. Long before this hour
the hundreds of scholars began to
wend their way towards their new
quarters of learning SO impatient
were they to get a glimpse of its
inside-and to have first choice of
seats. New walks have been laid
Oh three sides of the square on
which the building stands and,
during recesses, the pupils are
compelled to exercise on them
and not on the ground, thus pro-
tecting the floors of the different
rooms from becoming besmeared
with mud. With the excellent
corps Of teachers, well-drilled
pupils, and splendid structure
erected, what more is desired
Great credit is due the directors
for their efforts in the matter, and
to A. w. Scott, of Portland, Should
the honor be bestowed for the
construction. Yet, the principal
one in the whole thing is the
architect-and he is Charles
Ewart of CORVALLIS.

To SEArTLE.-Rev. J. S. Reasoner
and wife came in from their home
near Oak Ridge last Saturday and re-
manned until Tuesday when they
started for Seattle, Wash, to make
their home in the future with their
daughter, Mrs Hawley, who resides in
that city. "Father" Reasoner was
born in Kentucky in 1899; was or-
dained Presbyterian minister in 1888;
came to Oregon in 1851, and from
that time to the present has lived in
the state and for many years in the
vicinity of Corvallis. He is noble
specimen Of humanity physically as
we'll as spiritually. Tall, straight al
most unbent in form, though he car
ries the weight of more than ninety
years. His eye undimmed; his voice
unbroken, and his step quite firm
Nobly has he wrought as Christian
man and minister and his years are
full OF honored deeds. May he score
one hundred years is the wish of 8
host of friends.

An automatic steam engine of sixty-five
horse power, together with toiler sufficient

for by the company now conducting the new
Touring mill to be used in operating the

was the firm from which the engine was
procured.
A man in Salem, who has just retired
from business of a number OF years and
whose stock amounted to several thousands,
saws he never carried one cent of insurance.
He thinks there is no need of it; he certainly
has been lucky. And, Ye(a)t,on the very
next time he branches out again the fiery
elements may give him touch.
Beginning on Thursday morning, Decem-
Der 26th, and continuing for three days will
occur the teachers institute for the second

thinks that at least $50 teachers will be in
attendance, besides several county superln.
tendents. All Corvallisites should do all
in their power to receive the visitors In
cordial way.
A catalogue from the Silsby steam fire
engine company has been received at the
GAZETTE office. In looking it over it is
noticed that there are nearly 900 engines
of this make now in use all over the country
1t will soon be time for Corvallis to be pro-
tected from the fiery elements by having q
steam fire engine, and probably no better
make of machines exist than those of the
Silsby company.
