A Coop MovE.-It has come to


A GooD MovE.-It has come to
the ears of a representative of the
GAZETTE that the city council is
negotiating for the purchase of the
Episcopal church building and
moving it on to a lot belonging to
the city to be used as a city hall
in which to hold council and other
business meetings required by the
city. Another report says that
there is strong talk of the council
renting the room in the new court
house, designed for the county re-
corder of deeds office, which is 10
Gated in the northeast corner and
includes fine vault, etc. This, it
is thought, would be a splendid
move, for as it now stands, the
room will not be occupied by a re-
corder of deeds for quite awhile
yet as the last legislature failed to
create such an office. On account
of sudden rush of work this writ
er failed to question any of the city
officers on this matter.

The SCHOOL BUILDING.-At the
meeting of the school directors held
on last Friday evening, plans were
submitted for the new school build
ing to be erected here, but none of
them seemed to be within the
means that the district has allowed
for the erection of the same. A
petition has been in circulation
this week asking the board to use
brick instead of wood in putting up
the building; the cost of a wooden
structure would be about $4,000
and that of a brick near $4,000.
If a majority of the taxpayers of
the district are in favor of brick
then the board will very likely
comply with their request. A
meeting of the directors will be
held tonight also, and every Fri
day henceforth.

HEAVY WEIGHT CATTLE.-Miles
I. Starr, who lives near Monroe,
last week sold six head of beef
cattle whose total weight pulled
the scales down to 1860 pounds.
The price paid per pound was
three and one-half cents. Some
up the amount and you will see
that it pays to feed cattle as Mr..
Starr does.

AT THE JETTY.-A report was
circulated here during this week
that the storm of last week had
damaged the south jetty at Yaquina
bay to the extent Of $4,000. On
yesterday a representative of this
paperasked Mr.. Buford if such was
true, and learned from him that
the water had simply made chan
mel through the spit which project
ed out into the bay from the south
beach at the place where the jetty
starts out into the ocean. Howev-
es, this may be washed in such a
shape as to endanger the Jetty, but
as yet no fear is felt that such will
be the case.

A ATwO-FoLD BENEFIT.-Probably
one of the best and most attractive
advertisements for a city and coun-
ty. that has appeared in any news
paper in Oregon, which has no
real estate firms name at the bot
tom of it, is the last three-columner
of Ralston Cox's, the enterprising
grocer, which appears in one of
the papers of this city, and will be
inserted in the GAZETTE next week.
1t not only shows what you can
purchase at his grocery, but it is
very beneficial III the matter of
showing the progress in public en-
terprise which is now going on in
Corvallis. 1t shows that a general
waking up is taking place among
the citizens and no longer will
persons and things appear sleepy
and droll-like. If all merchants
would do e-fourth as we'll in ad-
yertising their business and the city
in which they are located, Oregon
would soon feel the great effect
therefrom.

ABOUT THE O. P.-The Review

ABOUT THE O. P.-The Review
of Ochoco, dated March 16, con-
tains the following: "Col. Eckle-
son, chief engineer for the Oregon
Pacific, arrived here from Albany
last Saturday, and left on Mondays
stage for The Dalles. He crossed
the Cascades from the front of the
o. 2. on foot. What mission the
Colonel was on we were unable to
learn, but he said something would
be known within one month of the
company's intentions. Col. Eckle-
son says the company can complete
the road from Albany to the Des-
chuttes river within six months
from the time active construction
is begun. When asked whether
the road would be located through
Prineville, Col. Eckleson said that
was a matter entirely with the
managers, and thing over which
the engineers had no control, but
the object of the company was to
get a direct route, and he thought
the most direct line was across the
desert. The Colonel said there
was nothing in the report that sur
veying party in the employ of the
Union Pacific were locating a line
on the summit of the Cascades"

STILL FIXING UP.-Mine host M.
A. Canaan, of the Occidental hotel,
is beginning to feel that it is about
time Corvallis should put ON more
airs as city, and now that he has
improved the outside of his prop
erty by putting down new side
walk, he is having S. N. Wilkins
and w. T.. Paul busily engaged in
putting a most beautiful design OF
fancy paper On the walls and ceiling
of his l;.rge dining room, office, and
parlor, which will make it present
as nice an appearance as any hotel
in the valley. In fact, there is no
doubt but that Mr.. Canaan is one of
the men you read about, and will
do his share, if not more, in seeing
this city push to the front in the
matter of improvement, and public
spirit. A few more such men is
needed. -

 in lodging behind just as the bull made dive for him, striking the tree plumb in the center, which luckily was just the right sizs to fit between his horns, thus holding him fast for 8 moment, which gave the frightened man a chance to use his horns as step ladder, thus enabling him to climb the tree, where he amused himself throwing apples at the infuriated bull, who stood underneath paving dirt and believing until his owner came after the COWS in the evening and drove him away.
