The attention of the city council is
called to subdivision 8, section 81, chap
ter S, of the charter of Corvallis, the con-
ditions of which are broken continually
by the proprietors of the dive known as
the Palace saloon. For some time past,
this place has been the common 1oafng
resort of all the thugs, toughs and buns
that frequent our city. 1t is constant
and increasing menace to the peace and
dignity of this community, and its license
should be revoked without delay 1t is,
without doubt, the most corrupting in
huence in town. More cases of drunken
ness and disgracefu1 braw1s are reported
from this joint than from all our seven
saloons combined. Only last Saturday
night, it was the scene of a brutal fight
in which one of the proprietors got him
self most gloriously pomneled. No ar
rests were made, and the nefarious busi-
ness is permitted to continue uninter-
rupted. 1t is burning disgrace to allow
this business to go on as it has in the
past. The public has been outraged long
enough by its existence. It is stamped
with the disapproval of every moral, law
abiding citizen of the community, who
now demands, in no uncertain tones, the
revocation of the license which permits
the concern to exsist.

THE fight made against the American
Book Company does not favor of honesty
of purpose on the part of those who are
really waging the war. A peep behind
the scenes will disclose the fact that the
whole fight is the result of combination
effected among rival dealers to drive
the company out of the field in order that
the combine may keep up the price of
books. The American Book Company is
serving the interests of 100000 people
OF the state, while this unholy alliance,
that is seeking to force them out of the
state, are merely attempting to forward
their own selfish interests at all hazards.

THERE is some talk that the legislature
will attempt to abrogate the franchises
granted the Oregon Pacific several years
ago. Whether these agitators are doing
this through ignorance, or with view to
fastening a sale of the properties, is a
matter of conjecture. Many people seem
to confound the Legislative function of
the government with that of the judicial
or executive department. The legisla-
ture has power to pass laws, and also
power to repeal certain Legislative acts,
but it has no moral or legal right to abro-
gate franchises. 1t is the function of the
judicial branch of the government to ad-
judicate the rights of parties, so, if it is
possible to annu1 these franchises, it can
be done only by the courts. If the agita-
tors of this matter will bring about
a speedy sale of the road to parties
who will place it on a solid basis and ex-
tend the line eastward, no one can object
to it; but if, on the other hand, through
some hook or crook, the matter should
get into the courts, the result might be a
public calamity. Agitation of this sub
ject wilr probably result in no good
to anyone, and the least said about it, the
better.

Miss Erma Lawrence, accompanied by
Miss Ora Spangler, of Corvallis, arrived

dition to our social circles, she being very
popular with the young folks of Corvallis.

SHOULD POST HIMSELF.

The following from the St. Helens
Mist was copied by the Sunday Oregoni-
an. The GAZETTE also reprints it, not
because of its worth, for it has none, but
merely to show how utterly at sea some
papers of this state are, in regard to the
school book question:
'"The American Book Company are
supposed to be at the bottom of the pro-
posed change i'll the school books in Ore
gon. The school book trust is gigantic
monopoly and can afford to spend large
sums of money i'll order to bring about a
change in text books, but if the school
authorities will look well to the interests
of the people, we believe no change will
be made this year. We do not want to
be understood as being opposed to pro-
gress in the public school system, but we
do contend that such a change at this
time would be unwise'
This misty editor no doubt supposes
he has entered vigorous kick against
the school book trust" and that he has
done the Gigantic monopoly" to stand
still. For his edifcation, it might be
we'll to state that the American Book
Company has been furnishing the text
books used in our public schools for the
past several years. During the coming
winter, the thirty-two county superin-
tendents and the nine men constituting
the state board of education will, by bal
lot, select the text books for use in our
public schools during the six years be-
ginning next fall. The books now used
give general satisfaction. With one ex-
ception-Brooks mental arithmetic
they are American Book Company publ
cations. A change in text books will
cost the school patrons of Oregon not
less than $3.50, 900. During the past year
the company has made voluntary re-
duction of ten per cent in the price Of all
publications it is furnishing. A similar
reduction will also be made by the state
board in the arrangement of schedules
for the guidance of bidders, who conterl-
plate securing the contract for furnishing

is very probable and even certain, that
the American Book Company is not in
the state simply for its health. It has
business established, pays taxes i'll the
state, maintains large store i'll Portland,
has manager and several assistants en-
ployed, and has large trade built up,
which it naturally enough wishes to re-
tain. In so far as the Portland branch of
the business is concerned, it is essentially
an Oregon institution, and the TRADES of
abuse which break out here and there
against the company, simply because it
has enjoyed the exclusive right of fur
nishing the school patrons of the state
with text books, and wishes to continue
the business six years longer, evidence
poor Judgment, to say the least. 1t is to
be hoped that the editor of the ST. Helens
Mist will post himself on the school law
and its workings before writing any more
editorials on the American Book Compa-
ny. By doing SO, he will avoid the pub
lication of such senseless item as the
one cited above.

An alarm of fire was turned in last night
about 10 o'clock, and investigation proved
that the residence of Joe Firesten, in the
south end on town, was in fair way to be
consumed. The fire company responded
promptly, and the flames were extinguished
after slight loss AS is usual, in such
cases, more damage resulted from water
than fire. No one was at home at the time,
the family being out visiting in Jobs addi-
tion. The cause of the the blase seems to
have been defective fue, or, rather, a
loose arrangement of the pipe connection
with the fue.
