Mr.. Peter Carson, who resides in
the northern part of this county was
seriously injured last Monday. He
was driving reaper when the seat
gave way letting him fall to the ground,
which caused the rupture of blood
vessel that may prove fatal
The vacancy caused in our public
schools by the resignation Of Miss
Frances Harris, has been filed by the
appointment OF Mrs. Barnard, of
Spokane Falls, Wash. Mrs. Barnard
is among the leading educators of that
city and comes highly recon mended.
There has been change made in
the "open season" law for the killing
of ducks and grouse, and it will be
we'll for sportsmen to remember this.
Grouse may be killed from September
lst TO Nov. 18th, and ducks may be
killed from Sept. 1st to March 18th.
For the past few days logs have
been coming down the river for the
Friendley sawmill which was burned
last week; and as none of them are be-
ing used they make a jam which
reaches almost half way across the
river for distance of nearly half
mile.
VIM. Graham, Cam Hemphill, Pun

Alsea bay, and in the mountains.
They had an excellent time and report
as having captured plenty of game
and fish.

Messrs Bert johnson and Geo. Eglin

for the past few days gathering fine
specimens of grain and other produce
raised in this vicinity, and now have
on exhibition some oe as fine speci-
mems as were ever exhibited in this or
any other state. Think Of it! Oats

The Keene dramatic company have
finished an engagement of three nights
in this city. The company. played in
behalf of the members of the G. A. r.
and gave good entertainments. Their
first production on Monday night was
"Held by the Enemy" and on Tues
day evening they rendered in very
creditable way the famous play en-
titled "The Silver King" closing on
Wednesday evening with "The Phe-
nix" This company ranks among the
best that visit this city and certainly
deserved a much better patronage than
they received while here.

PRESIDENT ARNoLD's VIsIr.-We had
the pleasure of visit from Prof B. L. Ar
mold, president of the State Agricultural
College of Oregon, OH Monday, who sailed
on Tuesday by steamer Australia for the
Sandwich Islands, intending to return in
some three weeks time. He is evidently a
faithful and worthy guardian of the inter-
ests of the growing and important institu.
tion over which he presides. His duties
have been constant for the past three years,
and the little recreation he may obtain by
his vacation we think has been well earned.
We will be pleased to note his safe return.

THE WEATHER. - "Great Scott!
Isn't it hotp This was the common
expression on the streets last Wednes-
day and Thursday, when the ther-
mometer registered 95o in the shade.
1t is consoling to know, however, that
while we are in the frying pan here
our friends in the central and eastern
states are in the fire. Wednesday
and Thursday were the hottest days
we have had this season, but We can't
complain, for our friends above men,
toned experience much greater heat
than we do; the mercury ranging from
1909 to 116o in the shade most every
day, and the hot, dry wind blowing
from the fields of sand that surround
them in a way that almost roasts them.
They have no mountains near 10y on
whose towering peaks the snow lies
the year round, and where the weary,
over worked can go and pose in the
shade of the lofty pines and fish fol
trout In ripping stream that dashes
down the mountain side from the snow
and ice that lies above-they have no
grand old Pacific ocean on whose beach
they may inhale the sea-breeze and en-
Joy surf bathing. We have all these
luxuries that nature has endowed this
state With; such luxuries as money can
not buy for any other state and which
are enjoyed here by the rich and poor
alike. Come to Oregon if you have
money to invest and invest 1t in the
Willamette valley, then in half a days
ride you can be either at the beach or
among the snow capped mountains.
Come to Oregon if you are poor and
take up a piece of land, erect a log
cabin Gf nothing better) and till the
rich soil where the sun neither parches
your face nor blisters your feet. Come
to Oregon if you are seeking pleasure
and pitch your tent in the mountains
where fish and game are plentiful.
Come to Oregon where the fields yield
abundant, trees are loaded with fruit,
the hungry are fed and the naked
clothed, the women are beautiful and
the men are strong. Come to Oregon.
won't you come.

IT WOULD PAY.-A CorvalIisite who
has been rusticating at Yaquina Bay,
tells of finding second crop strawber-
ries, both wild and cultivated. The
wild berries are small, very red
and exceedingly sweet. The cultiva-
ted or 'tame" strawberries which are
now yielding second crop are some
what smaller than those obtained at
first crop but quite as delicious In
flavor. Early strawberries always
command a good price why not late
berries as well2 If attention was paid
to the cultivation of these berries with
view to obtaining a second crop
where the climate and soil are adapt
ed to it, might not the industry be
more profitable, and the land in such
localities more valuable?

The EXCURSION TO THE BAY.-The
excursion from Albany to Newport last
Sunday was very pleasant affair.
Three coaches were filed from Albany
and Corvallis and the Marine band of
this city accompanied the excursion
and dispersed some excellent music,
which greatly helped to make. the day
an enjoyable one for all. The day
was spent in fishing and bathing and
the usual amusements to be enjoyed
at the seaside. The steamer Mischief
made a trip out over the bar and gave
those so desiring an opportunity to
fish for sea fish. On the return trip
very disgraceful fight occurred in
which Coskey, blacksmith of this
city, knocked James Hornlng down
with beer bottle. Coskey was
brought before Justice Carlisle and
plead guilty to assault and was fined
800 and costs. amounting in all to $50.

ENrERPRIsE.-The Corvallis Flour
ing Mills Co., show commendable
spirit of enterprise by erecting a free
ferry boat which will cross the river
near their mill and is to be used for
the purpose Of. bringing wheat across
from Lane county. Parties bringing
wheat to this mill will be set across the
river both ways free of charge. This
will be quite saving to the farmers
and will no doubt be the means of
bringing great deal Of wheat over
from Lane county that has heretofore
went to Albany.

WAITING FOR WHEAT.-The Ben
ton County FIGURING mills of this city
have shut down for a few weeks,
awaiting the arrival of the new crop of
wheat, having ground up all the wheat
they had on hand. They have found
a ready market for the large amount
of flour made by them during the past
season, which has been about $4,000
barrels, to grind this it required some
thing near 100000 bushels of wheat,
there being little over four bushels of
wheat to a barrel of flour. 1t is
thought that the new crop will COM
mence coming in in couple of weeks
or by the middle of next month at the
outside, when they expect to again
start up and intend to turn out even
more flour the coming season than
they did the past.

reason than that the victims did not be.
long to their clique Again. This ring
has controlled the conventions of both
parties and a movement is on foot to
control the conventions this year. The
manner in which the ring is run, can be
easily understood BY the dullest mind.
For instance a member of the ring is
nominated for one of the principal coun-
ty Offices, say on the democratic ticket.
Straightway. the ring goes into the re-
publican convention and puts up man
who is not member of the clique, gen
orally from the country and then the
slaughtering process begins. Political
affiliations are cast of as easily as a
duck back turns water. We ask the
voters of this county to run over in
their minds the various campaigns, and
we DEFY them to refer to hut one or
two instances where a man from the
country defeated a man from this city.
Understand us, We are not conIemning
these men IN personal sense, for this
practice. If We are foolish enough to
allow them to do this, if we are so want
ing in sense of fair play, if We are 60
ing to encourage them by sitting supine-
ly down, WE, and not they, are to blame.
They are jolly good fellows. They pat
you on the back and tell amusing stor-
les and hand around cigars and-take
the Offices, and some of them ever go
about the court house except to draw
salaries. Again. 1t sometimes hap
pens that the rings work becomes too
Calling and they dare not put up an old
time member for reelection. But this
is overcome by combination with
deputy and order and prosperity are
again restored. And so the thing goes
on from year to year. the voters meek
ly bowling their necks to the yoke and
the ring continuing to flourish. The
Peoples party relies on the good sense
of the people of Ford county, on the
desire always consistent with good cit
to see the county Offices and
county affairs fairly, honestly and i'm
filled and administered.

THE CRY FOR Reform.

reform seems to be the cry in
every portion of the country, whether
in county, state or national affairs.
To assert that there is no need of re-
form, is to deny the law of cause and
effect. If there is general cry for
reform, there must be and is a cause
for it just as surely as night follows
day. The men who live in the present
period will see one of the mightiest
peaceful revolutions in the history of
the world, should their span of life be
extended few years.
In primeval times, mighty ccnvui-
sions of nature changed the face of the
earth. Earthquakes and volcanoes
and other phenomena devastated vast
sections. Streams were turned in their
course and fertile tracts of land we're
left barren waste. Vast bodies Of va
ter appeared in some sections and dis
appeared in others. Land became Wis
IDLE and again disappeared. At one
time cosmos, at another time chaos.
Each succeeding age witnessed less
violent action of nature, until now this
phenomena is confined to volcanic
eruption here and there, and an occa-
sional earthquake shock. So in the an
imal world the same violent evolution
has taken place. Different causes COM
bined to destroy races and species.
Famines, pestllence, wars and revolu-
lions have extlnguished nations. The
pages of history record dark periods,
when it seemed that progression had
ceased and retrogression began, but the
law of evolution silently threaded ITS
way into the recesses of ignorance and
superstition until an onward and up
ward movement was again started, and
an epoch was established which, at its
end, raised the race a little higher
