THE "CORvALLIs COLLEGE. 10
take look through the building
of the Corvallis college which is a
part of the NJ. +. church, South,
one will notice that a great change
has been made in its interior.
Going into the first door on the
left YOU enter a hall which runs to
the center Of the room and then
down It's whole length; on one side
of this is the sitting room, library
and bedrooms, at the end.being a
large dining room and kitchen.
1t will be seen that this will be
used as a boarding hall for those
who are desirous of attending
from cities and towns abroad.
The boarding part of the institu-
ton will be conducted by re-
sponsible party and the charges
will be very reasonable. Rev. d.
Atkins is at the head of the list OF
teachers, and the name of Miss
Nettie Spencer, Of Corvallis, also
appears 1t is expected that the
attendance will be considerably
larger than it was last year, and it
is hoped that such will be the case.
COURSE OF LECTUREs.-A course
of five lectures is to be given III
the Congregational church during
the coming winter, the proceeds OF
which are to be used in making
additions to the church building
The lecturers will be those Of the
most noted in Oregon. Each
lecture will be preceded by some
choice vocal and instrumental
music, and the '.season" ticket will
be ~. From what has beer
learned concerning these enter
tainments there is no doubt thai
they VIII be very interesting an(
instructive. More will be sale
concerning them in the future.

AN ADDRESS TO THE PUBLIC.
The following address was drafted by the
committee duly appointed at the meeting
yesterday:
The purpose Of the people of the south to
build grand monument to Jefferson Davis was
synchronous with the last breath Of the dying
hero Of the confederate cause. It Is not, there
fore, to create new enthusiasm, it is to central.
ize the course of that which already fills millions
of patriotic southerners, that the newspaper
press of the south has organized to cooperate
with the association of united confederate vet
Grams whose commander-in-chi Is Gen John
B. Gordon Of Georgia. While the great soul OF
Jefferson Davis, freighted with the indefeasible
truth of the southern cause of constitutional
liberty, has winged its fight TO the throne Of
duly honored by those for whom he suffered,
and we should be dead to every sentiment of
duty, every prompting OF gratitude and love
did we not, now that he has been called hence,
seek in every fitting way to perpetuate his
memory and prove TO the world and
to posterity that we know how 10
appreciate 80 pure, so noble, so exalted
character. We need do no more than state the
object OF the association to secure the earnest
and enthusiastic cooperation of every news
paper in the south, that object in itself 80
noble, SO patriotic, suggestive, that the heart
of every man and woman in all our broad, fair
land will at once beat responsive to 1t.

SUPREME COURT JUDGES.
The Proposition to Increase Their
Number to Eleven.

WAS HINGToE, Dec. 13-The proposition
TO increase the number of supreme court
judges from nine to eleven emanatss from
Attorney General Miller, who has set his
heart upon a supreme court justiceship. 1t
meets with favor, it is said. among the re-
publicans of the Senate judiciary commit
tee, not because they desire to see Attorney
General Miller elevated to the supreme court
bench, but because they think the south
and the new states ought to have each
special representative on the supreme bench.
OF course the republican politicians from
these sections think so too, AMI are doing
all they can to help on the scheme.
OPPOSITION OF THE JUDGES.
The members Of the supreme court them
selves, on the other hand, without regard
to pc rty, are opposed to any such increase
in their number. They think the supreme
court should never be increased beyond its
present number, but they favor the crea-
tion Of a new appellate court, between the
circuit courts and tue supreme court, which
shall have final jurisdiction OF all cases,
involving not less than $1,000. or more
than $25,000 This Is substantially the
proposition of the David Davis bill, which
the supreme court has been trying to get
through congress to Tighten its labors, for
years. 1t apparently stands no better
chance now than it did in the last congress.
There is not enough popular demand be-
hind it.
