Philomata Republicans.

The Mckinley republican club
Of Philomath is still alive. Its
meeting at this place on Monday
night was one of the most en-
thusiastic ever he'll in Phjlomath.
In expectation Of speakers and
music from Corvallis quite a large
audience Of which no small per-
centage was ladies who believe
in the republican doctrine Of pro-
lection, greeted the club OH its
opening, but as the expected ora
tors did not arrive, the club was
compelled to content itself with
an extemporaneous effort which
was quite a compliment to its re-
serve force. The following per
sons delivered very interesting and
instructive addresses Oh the polit-
ical issues of the day: Prof. Holm,
Prof. Bonebrake and r. O. Log
gan. The speeches were enthusi-
astically received by the audience
and, interspersed with excellent
music by Prof. Baldwin, made a
very entertaining program. A
very good bill of fare is promised
for next Monday night, in the
way of a query box, music and
good speaking.
Every republican in the precinct
should make it point to be pres
ent and everybody is cordially in
vited to attend these meetings.

Corvallis Cycle Club.

The bicycle enthusiasts met on
Wednesday evening in the law
chambers of Hon. Jno. Burnett
and perfected a permanent organ
izatlon, adopted full and com
plete constitution and by laws
and elected the following officers:
President, Brady F. Burnett;
vice president, DIR. r. J. Wilson;
secretary, M. FL. KriebeI; treas
urer, DR.. Bowen Lester; captain,
Will. f. Ready; 1st. lieutenant,
Caleb Davis; End. lieutenant, G.
E. Small. The colors adopted
were orange and light green, thus
paying tribute to the honors
won for the former by the 0. A.
@. athletes. The club insignia
hasn't yet been agreed upon, but
a tasty design will be selected
from those to be presented at the
meeting ON next Wednesday eve
ming.
This is a movement in the ght
direction and as We have a num-
ber of good wheelmen in town,
it will give them an opportunity
to receive recognition and to
enter competitive races and, we
hope, win fresh laurels from the
field of athletes, i'll which our
town is already well known. We
wish all success and much pleas
ure 10 the 9. @. &.

Incendiary Fires.

Last Monday night at 1890 the
fire department was again called
out to extinguish a blaze that
proved to he barn owned by 4.
W. Fisher. Arriving too late 10
save it the attention of the iiremen
was given TO the other property
in the vicinity and the loss was
slight. On returning to the hall
the boys We're enjoying delicious
cup Of coffee prepared by the ia
dies when another alarm was turn
ed in. With all possible dispatch
the department reached the scene
and found the barn owned by
Mrs. L. Y. Wilson on 9Th
street completely enveloped in
flames, which also proved a total
loss. These midnight fires are
getting altogether too numerous of
late. The officers are endeavoring
to capture he perpetrators, bat So
far have been unsuccessful, al
though they have two Or three
good clues to work on. Some
people believe it is the work of
tramps, while others give the credit
to few young hoodlums living
in town. The latter idea is gaining
credence daily and it will be no
surprise to many if the present
grand jury are called upon to in
vestigale charges against one or
two of the young rascals.

Brown, of Salem, had been de

be enthusiastic in the work and If
the first meeting be taken as a
criterion, Ben Harrison camp will
be one Of the best in the state.

the work the members are en-
gagged in that of perpetuating

the sufferings of old veterans
caused by wounds and exposure
received on the field of battle in
defense of our flag and our country.

A Close Call.

Henry Workman has purchased 'Duke"
bicycle and commenced training preparatory
to contesting for the championship of the
United States. On Wednesday afternoon
while out on his usual run-for reductions
while wheeling along at a rapid rate just be-
low the city, near the river bank, he passed
young ladies. As Henry is,quite ladies'
man. of course he had to tip his hat, and
the result was that he ran too clos. to the
bank, and Henry and the wheel took r.
foot drop into the waters below. The only
damage done was a broken wheel and a hath
for Henry.

The Problem Solved.

Written for J. N. Nolan by an o. A. C. Student.
Twas in 1894 in that disastrous year
Aud STATESMEN grand and glorious We're
gasher ed frUm afsr and near.
The bject of thi. gathering of the nations
of the earth.
Was to rid them of the famine to which
nssafe had given barth-
Ths apeskess Of that day were eounsed by
=, the score,
And the walls resounded with their elo-
quence as their f.tes they did det'lors;
Each one haul for the famine IN
his land.
It was caused, in his opinion, by the OPP
posing party's hand.
And thus they talked and argued, but the
remedy none could see.
Said one, ''N hat set Of paupers we all
have grown to be!
And If You'll only pay attention the re ,son
will show
King Fashion, Ia his glory, with his scythe
comes forth to m"w,
And those who behind the times have fall
len i'll the buying of their clothes,
Are the ones who fall before him every
where he goes.
Now, to keep apace with Fashion IN his
ever changing speed,
With the present state of prices, and still
families feed,
Is n greater strain on our pocket books
than we're able to withstand,
And consequently, asyou see, we've formed
this paupers band.
Then, amid the rounds Of cheers, the
speaker took his seat,
And all agreed that at last they'd found the
question they must meet.
Then from a distant corner, an old man
and
eff this be the reason that the world doth
cry for bread,
Then let US all be merry for the problem
we can solve,
And our partnership with famine at once
we will dissolve;
And an era of prosperity must dawn upon
our night,
If, when king Fashion comes well only do
the right.
Now, to keep up with the fashion and still
have plenty at our door,
We must do our trading at J. NJ. Nolan s
If the very latest fashions we are longing to
procure,
With the very best of quality We eau any
where secure,
With the very lowest prices to he found
throughout the land;
In the very line of goods that are always in
demand;
In everything that man e'er wears, from hat
clean down to sock,
Let US at once examine j. NJ. NoIan's new
spring stock"
Then the wise old codger disappeared
again from view,
And everyone in the assembly from Amer
icau to Jew,
Agreed that the vexing question by the old
man had been solved,
So this grand and noble body was very soor
dissolved,
And each individual member homeward
took his way,
Rejoicing in having solved the question Of
the day.

Since coming into power the
democrats have taken no steps In
the direction of tariff reform OF
| which we have heard so much. In
| fact they have done very little, and
| am glad of it. 1t seems that they
are trying to keep as quiet as pos
sible. They remind me Of a story
| heard in regard to a woman in
Chicago who lost her husband and
advertised for him. | don't know
why she did-whether she thought
more of her husband than the wo-
men in Oregon do, or whether men
are scarcer, but in Oregon they
don't DO that way, if they lose their
husband they let him go, and get
another, but anyway this lady ad-
vertised for him. Well. in few
days an undertaken came to the
house and said "Mada'n, | have
found your husband. [ dragged
him up out OF the lake; lac is at the
morgue and | wish you to COME
down and identify him" So she
went down and looked at the body
lying Oh the slab al the morgue
and said Yes that is my husband"
She desired that he should have an
elegant funeral BETTING his posi-
ton in lite, so she looked through
the stock Of caskets and selected
one which she was told would cost
her $500. and a shroud that was
worth 5000, and ordered them sent
up. Accordingly they We're sent
and placed in the room where the
body Of her husband lay, and her
little daughter desiring to take a
last look at her papa, concluded
she would 60 III and imprint a last
kiss On his lips Entering the
room, she approached the body
and in order to carry out her in
tentioas she found it necessary to
remove the bandages from around
the head. When she did SO the
lower jaw dropped, and set Of
false teeth fell out. The little one
knew that was not her papa, SO she
ran in and said "Come mamma and
see, this Is not papa;' and sure
enough it was not. The lady, not
caring to pay for some ones funer-
al, who was not her husband, Or
dered the undertaken to remove
the body, and swept out Of the
room, leaving the Hndertaker alone
with the corpse and his own re
Elections. There was that $500
casket; that would cut sorry fig
ure going at second hand, and that
5000 shroud thrown away. The
undertaken in a fit of desperation
began to pace the floor, and fl
nally worked himself into such a
state that he concluded that he
would take his spite out On the
corpse. Walking up to il, he shook
his fist and said sYou internal
rascal, what an elegant funeral you
might have had if you had only
kept your mouth shut.'' And so
| find that the democratic party is
trying its best to keep its month
shut.

THE CUP PRESENTATION.
Matters Pertaining to the I'm
proyement of the College
Assembly Hall.

Last Monday evening the cham,
| pionsIiip cup presented to the foot
ball team of the Oregon agricultu-
raj college by the citizens of Cor
wallis was formally presented.
This cup, costing 1925, is OF ele-
giant and appropriate design, man
ufactured of sterling silver by
Tiffany, and is to remain in the
college as trophy of past victo
ries and not to pass out OF its pos
session with possible defeat.
Judge w. S. McFaddenf addressed
the team OH behalf of the citizens
in his usual pleasing manner. He
emphasized the scriptural saying
that the glory of young men is
in their strength and that a healthy
body is necessary TO a healthy
intellect.
Noting the inscription he said he
thought the engraver had made a
mistake in adding the figure s'4''
after the year 1888" "The faith.
ers Of the revolution referred with
pride to their Bunker Hill and
lexington" said the judge. "Ycu
may speak OF your Monmouth,
Albany, Portland Juniors, Port
land University, but, ah, there is
where the engraver made the mis-
take. You met the enemy and
they were yours, with one single
exception)."
In his response, Half-back Bur
nett, captain Of the tean, thanked
the people for their tribute and
interest they had manifested in
their behalf. He also paid high
tribute to Manager Will Ii. Bloss.
Ar. Wallis Nash made a few
remarks Oh the subject of athiet-
les, and in referring to the brutal
ity OF football said that the young
men should be the best judges Of
that themselves and that he would
venture to say that aft-r the Port
land game, had the young men
been asked to play again they
would gladly have accepted. Dur
ing the evening Mr.. w. Clifford
Nash played several selections
| that were thoroughly appreciated.
The ladies' mandolin and guitar
club were the recipients of numer-
Gus compliments lor their excel
lent music.
This was the first occasion On
which the college assembly hall
had been lighted by electricity
and the effect is to lend much
more attractiyeness to the hall.
The students deserve much credit
for their energy in raising the nee
essary funds to wire the hail and
purchase chandeliers. The acous
tic properties of this assembly hall
are better than those of any other
auditorium in the city, and it was
for this reason that it Was selected
for the Redpath concert which
occurs on the goth inst, and given
under the auspices of the college
The next move in the improve.
ment of the hall will be toward
the purchase of a carpet, and when
this is added the chapel will have
the most inviting assembly hall OF
any of the state institutions ol
learning.

kinds of blacksmitlling at reduced prices

nection with their business an agricult-
ural impliment depot has been opened
where all kinds of farming tools may be
purchased at prices that are absolutely
astonishing for their cheapness. These
gentlemen are both experienced nechan-

Council Proceedings.

Last Monday night the council
held its regular monthly meeting.
Owing to The fact that the matter
of Sunday closing of saloons was
to come up for hearing the council
chamber was we'll filled with
friends OF both sides of the ques,
ton. The committee, consisting
Of G. a. Waggoner, l.. q. Altman
and 7. j. Creighton, to whom had
been referred the matter, reported
that it..was nanilestly the duty of
the police officers TO enforce the
mandatory provision of the city
charter as well as the ordinance
found On page Sc, section 43, of
general ordinances, which requires
all saloons to be closed on the first
day of the week, commonly known
as Sunday. An effort was then
made to secure the adoption Of the
report. Councilman Wasgoner in
stirring speech of forty five min
utes advocated its adoption. He
showed that a petition signed by
no less than two hundred reputa.
BILE citizens had asked that this
or finance be enforced, and that
there were no good grounds for
refusing to do so. 10 these re-
marks Councilman y. H. Lee
replied, stating in effect that there
was also a state law covering ths
same ground as that embodied in
the ordinance then under consid~
GRAFTON, which the supreme court
had held, in several instances, to
be valid, and as the validity Of the
city law had never been passed
upon he was of The opinion that
the city had better not attempt
the enforcement Of the law for
fear of becoming involved in liii-
gatiJn that might be costly to the
city. Upon a vote being taken
the motion to adopt the commit
tees report was lost. By this tinrs
several of the city dads were get
ting warm, and Waggoner. bent
on seeing that the laws were prop
erly enforced, offered resolution
instructihg the city officers to do
their duty, and promptly moved
its adoption, but failing to get IL
second the matter was dropped.
1t is said, however, that this ques-
,ion will be an issue in the coming
city election. just why the city
council should spend their time
in passing laws that are to remain
a dead letter forever afterward is
not apparent. This is not the pur-
pose for which they were elected.
If the law is a good one it should
be enforced; if not, It should he
promptly repealed. The city Off
cials try to shift the responsibility
onto the county and state, and the
county has never taken any action
in the premises.
In addition TO the foregoing tie
police judges@y was ss'autllorized to
have $4,000. additional insurance
placed on the city hall, a sidewalf
was ordered built on the north side
of Washingtong betweens 9thssi ssiald
18th streets, The petition for a
sidewalk on the north side #
block II, PRESENTED by John Bier
and Mrs. NJ. T. johnson, was laid
over, and the chief engineer oisthe
fire department was instructed to
replace the broken glass in the city
hall.
