FREIGHT VIA PORTLAND.

The first of the week the steam
er Elwood brought to this city
about ten tons of freight consigned
to Yaquina business men. The
goods came from San Francisco
via Portland. and was shipped to
their destination over the Oregon
Pacific. These facts are sad COM
mentory on the affairs of the Ore
gon Pacific, and it is hoped that
the present management will soon
have a vessel on the San Fran
cisco Yaquina route. The con-
venience of this transportation
line was never more highly ap-
preciated than since its benefits
have been removed, and we are
treated TO a dose of the old, time
rate via Portland. The rate to
Corvallis on freight arriving from
San Francisco is fully double
what it was on the Yaquina route.

COMMITTED SUICIDE.

Eugene Campbell, aged 80
years, brother of the proprietors of
the Eugene Guard and for years a
compositor in that office, had been
missing since Wednesday morning
of last week. He had been
making preparations for much
needed rest and arrangements
were completed whereby he was
to leave for San Francisco on a
two months visit. His habits had
been to commence work at his case
about 9 o'lock each forenoon. On
the morning in question he went
to the office shortly after that
hour and began work but in few
minutes he resumed his hat and
coat and walked out of the office
without stating his intentions.
Nothing peculiar was anticipated
until shortly before 10 o'clock,
when, as he did not return, this
strange turn in the face Of his
closely regular habits, surprised
his brothers and inquiry as to his
whereabouts began and a careful
search failed to find any trace of
him. Saturday morning news came
from y-five miles up the Mid
die Fork river that a man was
found dying there, his cloths soak
ing wet and bloody knife with
a broken blade lying near by. He
died before relieved. The body
proved to be that of the missing
man and the remains were inter
red at Eugene on Tuesday. In
vestigations of the coroner showed
that death was the result of ex-
posure and of an inclsion made in
the wrist by himself.

LEFT US,

Geo. F. Eglin and family left
for Ashland on Monday, taking
with him his entire household eff
fects. The primary inducement
for this change was the expectation
of benefting his wife's health
which has been poor for some
time. While we entertain the be-
lief that Mr.. Eglin will return to
Corvallis In time we bespeak for
the family a warm welcome into
the business and social circles of
their new home, feeling assured
that their presence will lend vigor
to both. Mr.. E. grew to manhood
in this city, and while he is
young man his energy has been
strong factor in the later advance
ment and commercial develop
ment of the city and county. He
has rendered material aid in all
the important enterprises which
have been inaugurated here in the
past few years, and the more
progressive element of Corvallis
last year elected him as council
man from the middle ward. He
is member of Barnum lodge, l.
0. 0. F., Of this city, and withal.
has legion of friends here who
wish that his departure will not
prove disappointing in any partic-
ular.

NEW TINE CARD.

Receiver Clark has taken a VERY
important step in the direction of
cutting down the expenses of the
Oregon Pacific railroad, namely,
the reduction of train service.
After January LIST the company
will run a mixed daily train
freight and passenger combined) J
from Yaquina through TO Hal
stead, and one westward from Hal
stead, passing at Albany. Travel
ers' are usually averse to mixed
trains, but under the circumstances
they cannot reasonably find fault
with the management as it is quite
as important that employees be
paid as it is that the. public be
furnished strictly first class ac-
commodations.
Train No. 1. eastbound, will
leave Yaquina at 5:25 a. m.; ar
rives at Corvallis 11:1O, Albany,
1915; leaves Albany for Halstead,
l:l5. Train No. 2, westbound,
leaves Halstead at 700 a. m., ar
rlves at Albany 1910; leaves AL
oany 1885; arrives at Corvallis at
l:2O, Yaquina 1920.

HE Is AN EX-CONVICT.

Lionel Stagge, the bank exami-
ner and receiver of the Oregon
national bank of Portland, ap-
pointed by Controller Eckels turns
out to be an ex-convict of the Ore
gon penitentary, and the disclo-
sure has kicked up a great sensa-
ton in the metropolis. Stagge
was convicted and sentenced to
the penitentiary under the name
OF A. L. Waterhouse for a year for
passing fraudulent checks.
Upon his release from the pen
itentary he sought and procured
employment in Portlend under
an assumed name. He proved
himself man of fianclal ability,
and rose rapidly in the esteem of
the commercial world. TO make
the romance complete he married
a worthy young lady of Eugene,
who it is said clings to HIM the
closer since his position became
known to her and the world. He
has rendered his resignation as
receiver of the Oregon national
bank, but it is understood that his
bondsmen will not desert him
should Controller Eckles choose to
retain him.

LITTLE RUMORS.

1t is a rumor of the streets that
the democrats will have walk.
over during both the coming Nav
and June elections. This NAV be
the case providing the proper Sc
lection of candidates is made.
For the various positions to be
"doled out" by the electors of
the city and county several of
"the faithful' are in training and
the spirit of rivalry is growing to
quite interesting proportions.
That the contest for nominations
will wax warm there is no doubt,
as we have it from good authority
that there are already several
states (collegesize) in readiness
to be presented for consideration
of the conventions. One of the
leading democrats whose identity
we will conceal and designate as
Jim Crow" told US that for the
office of clerk of the court there
would be three Or more aspirants.
each of whom had a good (demo-
cratic) following, and that there
were two or more whose willing
ness to assume the responsibility
of county judge was quite pro-
nounced. "Jim Grow" is a gen
tleman whose long experience in
local politics has equipped him
with full knowledge of affairs in
general, and his statements are
more than likely about correct.
He said that under the conditions
prescribed by the last legislature
there was not much in the office
of sheriff to inspire a desire to
mount the ladder of fame, a ia
Cleveland STYLE. yet several tried
and true were willing to make the
sacrifice for the sake of the
county and good of civilization,
notwithstanding the present sher
IFS. determination not to enter the
nominating lace. In his review
OF the whole situation slim Crow''
plainly intimated that the peace
quiet of the democratic family was
not as desired and that factional
[olloW1ngs were common.

A CORRECTION.

In a communication from Mill
City, published in last weeks GA
zETTE, regarding claims against the
y. T., an error occurs which we
take this opportunity of correcting.
The correspondent says: .sFay &
Gest have been the accredited at
torneys for the road for about
eight months last past, and tor
their services they charged the
modest sum of $4S,7O5, or $4,000
more for attorneys fees for eight
months than all other expenses
combined for thirty months.o This
claim was not presented for ser
vices rendered the receiver or the
company. The claim is against
the hondholders' committee of the
y. T., composed of James A. Blair.
Joseph Wharton and Alexander
Brown. The correction is made
In justice to the management of
the road under Mr.. Hadley's re-
ceivership.

Oregon City, nor for the Eastern
Oregon insane asylum, for the
reason that the sums levied last
year for these purposes are all
that can proftably be expended
before wet weather in the fall will
interfere with building opera
tions. In this view of the case
the state officers thought it would
be unjust during the present
financial stringency to make
levies for improvements that
would only lie idle in the treasury
for possibly year. The board
expects to go forward with all
state institutions as fast as the
payment of taxes will justify.

bearing at the head of its columns
the names of q. Anson Byrd as
editor. Julian Byrd local editor
and W. L. VanScoy, subscription
agent. The paper is we'll filled
with local and miscellaneous news
matter, but contains but few ad-
vertisements of the business men
of that city which looks bad for
the future of the venture. The
Byrds are no "Jays" and if the
good people of Drain will give
them proper support, regrets will
not follow.
Ed. Dunu is with US again Sin
terviewing our business men in

papers tell but some suspect that
his interviews here are not of a
business nature and that they are
obtained in the interest of the
young man himself.
Uncle Billy Henkle, we are
sorry to state, is in very poor
health. He was attacked some

THAT WIRE FENCE.

A. Hathaway, a property owner
of Jobs addition, is circulating a
petition to be presented at the
next meeting of the city council,
praying for the opening of certain
streets in his vicinity. Mr.. H.
presents the matter about as fol-
lows: 1t is claimed that Mr.. Will
kins sold to Mrs. Murray a strip of
land embracing number of frac-
tional blocks along the line be-
tween Jobs and Wilkins additions.
Mrs. Murray has placed a wire
fence around the tract, enclosing
the imaginary streets between the
fractional blocks and cutting off
free intercourse between the two
The trouble has arisen
out of the fact that the land where
the streets might. could, would, or
should be, was not dedicated to
the city.

FIRE ALARM,

days resulted in some good, not
withstanding the NUMEROUS
kicks" recently registered by
the sleep-lovers whose s1umbers
are disturbed by the heavy tread
upon the asphalt (?) pavements.
Monday morning at S o'clock as
they came down Madison street
upon their regular run they dis
covered a heavy fame of fire is
suing from the residence of B. T.
Taylor. They gave the alarm,
passed On to the engine house,
manned a hose cart and had it at
the scene of the fire before any
number of citizens had emerged
from their homes. The fire proved
to be a burning fue, but the
presence of the fire company was
necessary to prevent the roof of
the building taking fire from the
volume of sparks which issued.

SNAG.PULLING.

Lieutenant Taylor, United

snagboat Corvallis to Eugene to
clear the snags out of the river
between Corvallis and that point.
She has been operating between

very favorable time for cleaning
the river, as many snags have been
brought down by the late flood,
and the snagboat will work down
the river as the water falls and
clean them all out.-Oregonian.
