The state bar association is tax.
ing cognizance of the great in
crease in divorces in Oregon, and
has appointed a committee to in.
vestigate Oregon's loose divorce
and marriage laws and report al
the next meeting with a bill to be
submitted to the legislature. The
records of the courts of the state
show that Oregon is even ahead oil
Chicago in the proportionate mum.
Der of divorces granted. The
county of Multnomah, alone, is
shown to have granted more di
vorces than three counties of Vir.
ginia, three of New York, three o1
Maryland, three of New Jersey
and three of Massachusetts,, each
having more population thar
Multnomah, yet Multnomah grant
ing more divorces than all put to

lin this regard that is not wholly
commendable. tbs clear that di

Oregon and the fact that the law

change in this important matter

A SOUTHERN writer of northern
nativity writes up to his friends at
the old homestead as follows: 81
went to the south a few years ago
to improve my financial status and
grow up with the country. l have
prospered down here, made hosts
of stanch friends and learned to
vote the democratic ticket, a thing
| had never done i'm my former
home. In the town | now live in
there are about eight thousand
people, five thousand of whom are
colored, and the voters of the latter
class are solidly republican. The
whites, of course, are on the other
side, The municipal officers are
always democrats, in spite of the
fact that the opposition has a
heavy majority. Do we count them
outs Not at all; the process is
much simpler ana devoid of all
scullduggery. You see, we have a
board of commissiopers-fve dem
ocrats and two republicans-who
have to approve the bonds of all
officials. When the republicans
elect their ticket their candidates
present themselves with theil
bonds before the commissioners
for approval. Instead of being
approved they are rejected, ane
then our people come forward an6

ftfh CORVALLIS GAZETTE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 49, 1891

ALTHOUGH it is several days past
the time when the president usu-
ally issues his Thanksgiving proc
lamation, Uncle Ben has made no
move in this direction. Realizing
the fact that November's fourth
Thursday is nearly here and that
turkeys are ripe for the occasion,
Oregon's democratic governor has
dashed off a Jeffersonian Thanks.
giving proclamation, which ap-
pears in this issue. Governor Pen
noyer says he waited the usual
length of time-really longer-for
the president to have his say, and
fearing lest that official might be
ratified over recent events (last
Tuesday, say) he brings out his
proclamation first. This is an un-
usual thing-for the governor OF a
state to issue his Thanksgiving
proclamation before the presiden-
tial one is sent forth. It is the
first time such a thing has occurred
in Oregon since presidents have
been issuing proclamations. Gov.
ernor Pennoyer thinks the presi
dent has no authority, anyway, tt
issue such proclamations. 1t was
never done until after Lincoln was
elected. He set the fashion anG
lit has been followed ever since.

WHILE the European reporters
and correspondents are sending us
an endless flow of sensational sto-
ries about monarchs and war ru-
mors, they are neglecting items of
news of really great Importance.
For example. it was announced
some time ago that an Information
al Congress of Chemical Analysts
and Microscopists had assembled
i'll Vienna for the purpose of de-
liberating on the best means of de-
tecting the adulterations of food
and the feasibility of some gener-
al international agreement for the
suppression of unwholesome food
mixtures. Now this congress was
really useful to the world, and
yet after briefly announcing that
it had assembled, the European
correspondents dropped it and re-
turned to the old gossip about
kings and queens, SO that no one
knows what has been done by it.

WHEN it comes to the common,
everyday expressions of life slang
predominates over pure English in
potency of impressiveness. Slang
phrases were as practical in the
days of Shakespeare and Ben JON
son as they were in the days of
Dickens and Robert Browning.
the beauty of Burns lyrics is the
peculiar attachments of slang
phrases to his literature. Chaucer
makes but little use of slang
where he does there is more ex-
pression-more impression, rather
obtained than in any other por
tons of his literature. Poe's sra
ven" is full of pathos, full of solem-
nifty, full of weird and wondrous
beauty, but the humorist who
parodied the "Raven" brought out
a counteracting impression, read in
every southern and eastern fire
side and digested and pondered
with appetizing strategy. The
majesty of Bret Harte's 'sLuck oi
the Roaring Camp" is manifested
forcibly in his selection of peculiar
slang phrases, in which he SC
clearly depicts the rude precincts
of the rustic campfire.

WILLIAM r. COLEMAN, the chair

WILLIAM T. COLEMAN, the chair
man of the famous San francisco
vigilance committe of 1851, 1856
and 1877, in an account of their
work which he has written for the
November Century, refers to the
recent lynching at New Orleans
and tells what he thinks the peo.
pie of California would have done
under the same circumstances
They would have organized in full
force, he says, formed a court, ap.
pointed a judge and selected a
jury, called for evidence, analyzed
it carefully, put on trial the peo
pie who had been discharged by
the peuured jury, given the ac
cused good counsel and the benefi'
of every doubt, and finally woule
have executed with due delibera
ton those whom they foune
guilty.

WILLIAM ALLEN, author of the
homestead law, is now an inmate
of an Ohio poor house. He is Sc
years old and has spent the greater
part of his life working for the in
terests of others. He addressed
legislatures and helped to mould
public sentiment until at last con-
gress passed the national home
stead law giving every actual set
tier 100 acres of land. For this
work Mr.. Allen was highly praised
but received no pay. He spent his
fortune in the cause. His work in
Ohio. led to the adoption in that
state Of the exemption laws by
which the poor man has so much
property set aside exempt from
sherif's and constable's sale. His
farm in Perry county was sold by
the sheriff some years ago, since
which time he has lived by begging.
When sent to the infirmatory Mr..
Allen presented a most miserable
appearance,his clothing being little
better than tatters and rags.

AN interview with Signor Ar
coles, the under-secretary of the
agricultural department of Italy,
has been made public, in which
the statement is made that the
crops in that country are all above
the average. The yield of wheat
is put at Is, 100000 quarters; that
of maize at S,O6S,OOO quarters
that of oats at 100000 quarters
that of barley at 100000 quar-
ters, and that of rice at 2,O43, 600
quarters. Of the wheat crop about
IS per cent. is said to be of very
good quality. The yield of wine
is expected to be large in quantity
and fine in quality, and the orange
and lemon crops are most promis-
ing, Altogether the agricultural
outlook is said to be the best for
many years.

II looks very much like prepa :
rations for war at the Brooklyn
and Mare Island navy yards. 1t
is conceded from various import
ant sources that the complicated
relations between this country and
Chill "have caused the govern
Aaent anxiety to. get all its war
vessels ready for any possible con-
tingency;;" but late advices from
Valparaiso state that the Chilian
government is seeking a friendly
solution of the difficulty with the
United States over the Baltimore's
sailors incident, and that Presi-
dent-elect Montt manifests friend
" treatment to Minister Eagan.
Telegraphie reports concerning
Chilian affairs are very conflicting,
and much reliance cannot be placed
apon them.

The Emperor William, of Ger
many has shaved off his whiskers,
it is said, in Difference to his wife's
wishes, who from the very day he
began to allow the stubby brist!es
on his imperial cheek to stand has
been antagonistic to hirsute appen-
dages. 1t has been rumored in Of
fetal circles, that had the Emper-
or not shaved, there would have
been trouble of a serious character
in the Imperial household at Ber-
lin. Whiskers have never cut a
very extraordinary figure in the
diplomatic and imperial history of
the world, and the application of
the razor to the young Emperor's
face has probably taken them out
of politics forever.

AN education is the best legac

AN education is the best legacy
parents can give their children.
The world wants no more citizens
who can neither read nor write.
knowledge is power. Educate the
children and the world will have
great and good men and women.
Don't miss the opportunity of
sending the little ones to school
regularly. Hardness should not
be tolerated, except in cases of
sickness. Let parent and teacher
work together in harmony for the
good of the child. The result OF
united effort in this great work will
bring about the happiest results.
Unlike We olden time, ''book learn

AN elaborate report of the Brit
ish commissioners who have been
visiting Chicago making inquiries
in regard to tie steps to be taken
by Great Britain in order to make
suitable exhibit at the Worlds
Fair in 1898 has just been made
public in London. The commits
sioners declare themselves i'm
pressed with the manner in which
the important work which Chicago
has undertaken is being done, and
express the opinion that there is
no doubt whatever of the ultimate
success of the fair. They recon-
mend the erection of a handsome
building on the site provided for
Great Britain, and say that it is
certain that the juries intrusted
with the task of making awards
will be international in all groups
containing foreign exhibits.

IT is not often that preachers
and saloon keepers are fond of
working together, or even on SINH

Sundays. The saloon keepers OF
Chicago want the fair closed Sum
days because then thousands OF
people who otherwise would be at
the fair would go to the saloons.
The preachers want it closed be-
cause they think to open it would
