The New DEAL.-Some additional
facts concerning the future plans OF
the Oregon Pacific railroad have been
learned from reliable source, which
will be of interest to the public. This
is to the effect that the compromise of
the New York bondholders upon
plan of action has been fully agreed
upon. Col. Hogg is to be retained as
president of the road, while Mr.. Blair
and his friends will remain the man
ayers and have voice in the policy Of
the road in the matter of construction
eastward which they have not hereto,
fore had. The formal sale of the road
will be made in January next at the
date fixed, after which the new regime
will take effect. The war among the
bondholders has all been settled, and
it is stated that they will unite their
energies during the next year for the
construction of the road toward an
eastern connection. Next summer,
according to the present outlook, will
be one of activity along the line east of
Albany, and the resumption of work,
when it is commenced, will be on ba-
sis for its permanent prosecution to its
final completion, an accomplishment
which the people of Albany and the
whole state have long hoped to see

The FIRST FROM BENyoN.-Mrs.
Belle Mccoy, of this city, recently pc
titioned County Judge Hufford for a
writ of confinement in the state reform
school at Salem, of her two sons,
George, aged eight, and Franklin, aged
ten. The boys were taken to the school
Monday and are the first representa-
tives in that institution from Benton
county. This institution will prove a
variable training school for the youth
of both sexes, who are inclined to re-
sist parental authority, if properly man.

forced will save many youth from a
life of crime Or, possibly, home in
the penitentiary.

OREGoN's EXHIBIT CAR.-From a
private letter received from Mr.. b. w.
Johnson, superintendent of the Oregon
exhibit car now travelling in the East,
it is learned that they are at Sioux
City, Iowa, and will work their way
from there to Dakota. He states that
up to December l, over $4,000 peo-
pie visited the car and made a careful
examination of the exhibit since leay-
ing Portland. Forty thousand sam
pie bags of Oregon grains have been
distributed, which are anxiously re-
ceived by the admirers of Webfoot
products. Mr.. Johnson says large
crowds are continually visiting the
car, who manifest great interest and
ask many questions about Oregon and
Its productions. The display of fruits
are in tine condition and attract spec
ial attention. He further says from
the interest taken by Eastern people in
Oregon, we may confidently count on
a heavy immigration of men of means
to this state during the coming season.
Bert's many Corvallis friendsappreciate
the fact that he is capable of showing
up the advantages of his home to de
sirable Eastern people in a way that
will induce them to locate in Orgon.

GIVEN THEIR FREEDOM the 10Th of

terry. They were arrested and tried in
Squire Russell's court at Yaquina City, and
convicted for. the crime of assault and bat
terry. The justice sentenced them to be
confined in the county Jail for three months.
They were brought to Corvallis and placed
in Jail. Last Friday they petitioned the
county court for a writ of Habeas Corpus,
and on the hearing the boys were discharge
on the grounds that Justice Russell's juds-
ment and sentence was null and void. Ac.
cording to the statutes of Oregon in a case
of assault and battery in a justice court,
a justice .of the peace can only punish such
crimes by fine not to exceed $50; and can
not imprison for any length of time as a
punishment, and in no event can he send
them TO jail, unless after ne has imposed a
fine upon the guilty persons and they fail OF
refuse to pay such fine, and in that case he
can only send them to Jail unit! such fine is
paid, not TO exceed 25 days. It appears in
this case that the justice of the peace ex
ceeded his authority in imprisoning the
boys for three months, and they were

ToRY.-The work at the Corvallis car
rage factory is progressing rapidly and
quite satisfactorily. About one-half of

time the whistle footed it's shrill notes.
Workmen are busily engaged this week
IN fitting the steam pipes for heating
the building throughout and the car

week ago and already the company has
it filed with lumber seasoning, in or
der to have the mateaial ready to work
up as soon as the factory is started.
The shafting is all in place throughout
the building. One carload of machin-
cry arrived last week and one this
week and it is being set in. place as
rapidly as possible; the balance will ar
rive as fast as needed. A carload of
springs and another of gear stock is on

gon, as the presidential campaign fol-
lows soon after the election for state
and county officers, and 1t behooves all
republicans to stand united that there

utmost Importance that republicans

SCHOOL ENTRTAINMENT.-Fhe entertain
day evening by the public schools was
grand success, and great credit to both
the pupils and teachers Our citizens put
in their little mites to help the cause along,
and turned out in large numbers. The en-.
tire programme was carried out without
break, and the little ones were frequently
applauded by the audience, which showed
that their efforts to please the public were
not as 'bread cast upon the waters" but
that every part of the entertainment met
the approval, and was highly appreciated
by everyone present. The costume drill by
thirty-six little soldier boys, The Little
Mothers song by twenty-five little girls
with dolls, the japanese Fan Drill by
twenty-five girls in costume, and the '.Flo-
raj Rainbow or the tissue paper costume
drill by forty little girls, were all well exc
cuted and created pleasing effect, especi.
ally the latter, when the colored lights
were turned on. The recitations, ''Moth-
er's Little Man" by Master Charles Shaw,
Bachelors For Sale" by Tommy Nolan,
"Speak Gently" by five little girls, ''The
Thin Dog" by Jack Arnold and-
were rendered with much credit to the lit
tie ones. The Comic Quartette, ''The
Auctioneer" by Messrs. Blanchard and
Pitchard and Misses Shaw and Bacon, was
good and created no little mirth for the au-
dience. The total receipts of the evening
above expenses was about $40, which will
be expended for books and other incidental
expenses for the school. At the close the
pupils of the eighth grade presented their
principal, Prof. Blanchard with two fine
leather bound volumes, one each of Long
fellow and Burns poems, and an elegant
case of writing materials Christmas re-
membranes from his pupils.
