A PROSPEROUS CHURCH.

1t was fortunate day for the Baptist
church of Corvallis that saw the selection
of Rev. w. HI. Dorward to preside over
the destinies of that now prosperous denom-
ination. Frequent attempts to raise suf1i.
cient funds with which to erect a church
edifce have been made, but each of them
proved futile until the arrival of Mr.. Dor
ward, who, by his push and energy, soon
had the matter we'll under way. When the
church was organized some years ago, lot
and half at the corner of 5th and Jeffer.
son streets was purchased. Upon the east
side of this property new tabernacle has
been erected during the past two months at
a cost, including furnishing, of $400. OF
this amount one half has already been paid
and Rev. Dorward is now engaged in solic-
iting the balance, which he hopes to raise
in few weeks. The building has seat.
ing capacity of two hundred aud fifty. For
this purpose, chairs will be used which are
now being manufactured in Albany.
The building just completed is intended
only for temporary use. Mr.. Dorward in
was expecting to erect permanent struc-
ture within year or two. The Baptist
Home Mission Society, with headquarters in
New York City. has offered the Corvallis
people gift of $400 and loan of as much
more on condition that building be erect
ed at cost of not less than 50, 600. By
persistent effort it is hoped that the church
will be strong enough at the end of year
or eighteen months to undertake the erec-
tion of handsome and comodious edifice, to
cost not less than So, 500. In the event they
are successful, the new structure will be
built on the ground Immediately west of the
recently completed tabernacle.
The membership of the church now num-
bers forty six persons. thirteen of whom have
become identified with the organization dur.
| ing the brief pastorate of Rev. Dorward
Its numbers include many of the wealthiest
and most influential citizens of Benton coun-
ty, which assures the church a bright and
prosperous future.
| The new pastor arrived here recently with
his wife and family, and is now cozily set
tied in the north end of town. Mr.. Dor
ward has three brothers now residing in
Webster City, Iowa, who contemplate a
change of climate. They are all we'll do,
and may move to Corvallis in the spring il
their brother Is as well pleased with the
place as he is now.

The Land of Promise

Is the mighty West, the land that ''tickled
with hoe laughs harvest" the Ell Dora
do Of the miner; the goal Of the agricul-
tural emigrant. While it teens with all
the elements of wealth and prosperity, some
Of the fairest and most fruitful portions Of
it bear harvest of malaria reaped in its
fullness by those unprotected by medicinal
safeguard. No one seeking or dwelling in
a malarial locality is safe from the scourge
without Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Emil
grants bear this in mind. Commercial
travellers sojourning in malarious regions
should carry bottle of the Bitters in the
traditional gripsack. Against the effects Of
exposure, mental or bodily overwork, damp
and unwholesome food or water, it is an
infallible defense. Constipation, rheuma-
tism, biliousness, dyspepsia, nervousness
and loss of strength are all remedied by this
genial restorative.

| of the election of public school text books
in Oregon?"
81 know no better way. I believe thai
the adoption of text books should be uni
form throughout the state"
Teachers now understand the present
methods of texts and can adapt them more
satisfactorily than they could new series.
Yet, a teacher who teaches a text book
blindly is failure. Good results in teach
ing depend primarily upon the teacher, not
the text book l believe in teaching the
subject, not the text book. AS l under
| stand the law, the state board of education
fixes list limited price at which the books
must be furnished. That is to say, the law
provides that the board shall establish a
limit above which bids will not be enter
tanned, TINS preventing trust combination
of publishers and keeping the retail prices
within the jurisdiction of the board. From
an economical standpoint would say that
the number of books in the present series
now in use makes it possible for pupil to
secure books with little or no outlay of
money. One set of school books will thus
do duty for two or more pupils in the same
family. do not consider, in case change
should be voted, that it is businesslike to
offer exchange prices of say so percent, as
the old books are simply destroyed. But
it would be much better to give an intro
ductory price and more time for introduc-
&c
ooh, yes; we all have books which are
our favorites-the one that we understand
the best. But taking our present series as
a whole it is satisfactory. Let US put our
of teachers, rather than text books. The
cost of new series of text books to the
people of the state will equal or possibly
exceed $3.50, ,OOO."
With the thorough information before us
as basis, we deduce the following approx
innate table of the cost to each pupil in
case an exchange of books is voted. In the
table we give texts which are advocated the
most, using them as criterions in the mat
ter of expense, as, in comparing the various
book notices, the exchange prices of the
competing publishers vary but little.

Maxwel's series of grammars is an
American Book Company publication, and
no exchange price is offered, as they would
be exchanging for their own books. The
present series of grammars, however, cost
50 IS, while the proposed series of Max
wells will cost only SIC
The cost per pupil, as set out above,
may vary from - 65 to $500, as in some
cases the old books would be too badly
worn to be received by the publisher, while
it would yet suffice for his use. This is an
average cost, and for the advanced courses
it would be little more, and for the pri-
mary courses, less.

THE TOLEDO SCHOOL mUpD1R.

Judge Burt, of Lincoln county; came
out from Toledo to look after the inter
ests of his county in the settlement OF
the Benton-Linco1n tax matter. He is
of the opinion that the vexed question
will be satisfactorily adjudicated. Some
trifing difficulty arose over the sworn
statement of Sheriff Landers, in which
he claims to have collected but $40 in
taxes on land lying in Benton county.
But according to Judge Burt, his state
ment shows him to have collected over
four times that amount.
Just as the Judge was leaving for
home, GAZETTE reporter asked him in
regard to the school muddle over at To-
ledo and learned the following: "Ou
Thursday, the 9th inst, A. L. McFadden,
principal of the Toledo schools, as
saulted the I5-year-old son of Coll
Van Cleve and was arrested at the in
stance of the boys father. When the
case came up for hearing before Justice
Hall, continuance of the matter was
granted until last Tuesday, when at
1890, noon, the case was given to the
jury. They remained out all night and
all the following day and night. and f.
nally brought in sealed verdict Thurs
day morning. learn that they found
him guilty. He was fined $40 and costs,
which will amount to about $50.
From the evidence it seems that the
boy was making some unnecessary
noise by rubbing his hands over the
desk. He was called to the front by the
teacher, and told to face the wall, but
didn't do SO willingly. Nc took hold of
him just as the scholars were entering
the room after recess. Some of them
say that in doing so he knocked the
boys feet from under him and then
bumped his head against the floor. 1
saw the boy soon after the affair and he
was badly bruised about the head,
shoulders and body. While the trouble
was on, the boy yelled 'Murderp in
such loud tones that nearly the entire
population of Toledo heard him; the
children became badly frightened and
seemed to fear the boy would be killed.
''The trouble, as nearly as I can learn,
originated with the school board, who
allowed politics to influence them in the
selection of teacher. Two of them
are populists and one is a republican.
Before the term opened, bids for teach
ing the school were received by the
board. Prof Bethers offered his ser
vices for $40 per month and wanted an
an allowance of S5 per month for the
services of janitor. Although Mr..
Bethers had taught the school for five
consecutive years and had given general
satisfaction, the board turned around
and employed McFadden at $50 per
month and he went in under protest. as
a majority of the patrons wanted
Bethers. What the outcome of the af-
fair will be, am unable to state, but be-
1ieve it will result in the employment of
some disinterested person."

this side of Forsyth, turning the engine on
its side and closing all traffic for about Is
hours. Nobody was hurt. Tho east
bound passenger train was held at For

noon.
Again disaster awaited il, and Il is now
sidc.,racked until further orders. The
trouble this time Is between Dixon and
Shirly, about 10 miles east of here, where
the Yellow stone river has gorged and
flooded the track for several miles. One
culvert Is known to have been washed
out and further damage is feared. but
nothing definite can be learned until tho
gorge gives way and the water goes
dowu. At this point the track follows
around the bluffs most of the way and it
may take some time to repair the road.
Tho tongue river Is very high again to-
day, all the low places about the city being
submerged to n greater oxtent than has
been known for many years. No ma
terial damage has been done, but the
mud and water are extremely trouble
some. Two efforts have been made to
blow out the gorge which has been in
Tongue river for about two weeks and Is
causing the overflow in this city. The last
one to-day started the lower end and an.
other trial will be made tomorrow which
it is thought will be successful.
