To the Voters of Benton County.

/ feel called upon to answer the false state
m ents made in the Corvallis Times of 3lst
inst. to the effect that am the owner OF
block IA in Graham S fifth addition to Toledo,
and that the Lincoln county court house was
located therein Mt my request.
In answer to these statements will state
that the facts are:
In 1891 Miss Lizzie Graham, my sister,
made me a trustee for herself of said 6 lots in
block IA, in Graham's fifth addition to
Toledo, the said trust being created as a safe
guard to prevent certain fraud which was
then being formed against my sister. That
certain parties in Toledo frauduently obtain
cd possession of the promises, and that, not
withstanding the fact that my sister, Miss
Lizzie Graham, and myself strenuously
objected to the occupancy of said building,
and that we served notices of tresspass, duly
signed by w. S. McFadden, our attorney,
and duly posted by the sheriff Of Lincoln
county, said trespassers did actually rent
said premises for use as a court house.
We at that time. and before said building
was occupied as a court house, my
sister, and myself as trustee, commenced
suit against one j. G. Blake and wife for the
recovery of the property, which suit is now
pending in the circuit court Of Lincoln Co.
Neither my sister or myself have received
any money whatever rs rent for said
premises.
Trusting this statement will correct the
false statements of the editor Of the Times
in this regard, beg to remain

Arrested for Burglary.

For some time past the people in
the neighborhood of Monroe have been
bothered by thefts, and especially the
Nichols warehouse, which is situated
about three miles from that city, has
been the chief place for the
"guys" to work. Wednesday
tho steamer Eugene left some freight
at this warehouse for Monroe, and
Taylor Archer, who is in the employ of
Mr.. Nichols, concluded he would set
a trap for the lad, and was successful
in capturing the thief, who proved to
be one D. M. Sanders, who was sent
to the pe,1itentlary some five years ago
for two years for breaking into Will
helm & Sons store. He was bound
over to appear before the grand jury
in the sum of $4,000, which he failed
to give and now languishes in the
county Jail.

EDITOR GAZETTE.-After reading
the article in the Times today concern
ing myself, am compelled to state
that the editor of said paper is falsi-
fer as well rs an accomplice in Mr..
Bryan's dirty work. If not too in
quisItive L would like to know what he
is paid for performing said services.
Webster defines the word insult as "any
gross abuse offered to another by word
or action" and if allowing young
lady's name to he paraded publicly, as
the names of majority of young ladies
have been who have kept Mr.. Bryan's
company, and then refusing in any
way at all to right that name before
the public is not an insult, then I
must be very dull of comprehension.
Yes, Mr.. Editor, an honorable engage
ment Is all right, but Il man who en-
cages himself to every young lady he
meets and takes liking to and trifles
with her affections IAN article which l
keep closely guarded) for pastime, is
not the kind of man the Benton
county voters want over their daugh-
ters, Or have sadly misjudged the
honor of the voters. Furthermore,
Mr.. Editor, when l am seeking COM
pliments or wish YOU to explain nv
position to the public, L will let you
know, but until then, believe me, yon
are not called to champion my course.
Respectfully,
MARY l.. DEE MANNING.

A Last Word to the Voters.

This issue of our paper is the last
which will appear before the election,
and although the Times is flooding ev-
cry nook and corner of the county
and does not stop at anything it eau
say against our candidates, yet we have
no misgivings as to the result next
Monday. With malice toward none
we have spoken of the candidates as
they deserved. and have endeavored
to be just to all. We shall not at
tempt to get the last word and shall
have no papers handed around on
Sunday or at the polls on Monday.
We know the people are not so foolish
as to be turned by the last word or to
listen to any ISLANDERS Which may be
offered when there is no time to an
swer them. Anything published by
the Times after this issue of ours will
be done with the knowledge that it can
in no way be answered by us. We
therefore warn our readers against this
method Of desperate politicians. 1t is
currently reported that the dirtIest
work of the whole Times onslaught
will he reserved until we shall have no
chance 10 deny it. If such work is
resorted to it will be the very culmi-
nation of infamy, and we sincerely
hope that common decency will not be
entirely lost sight of by our neighbor,
and that Mr.. Osburn will learn a les
son from his defeat, which seems in
evltable. Also, it is to- be hoped That
Sol King will be taught lesson which
may last HIM the rest of his life. Tho
sooner he learns that the republican
party cannot be defeated and its can-
dldates disgraced by the expenditure of
a few hundred dollars, the better it
will be for all concerned.

Judges Salaries.

AS to salary of county judges the follow
ing shows how the salaries were raised

amas, 81 200; Douglas, 81 200; Grant, ST.
600; Harney, 81 600; Jackson, 81 200; Linn,

Umatiila, 1900; Union, $1,000; Wasco,

AS to lawsuits, will say that one suit only
has been the result of the division of Ben
ton county which was the case Of Booth,
school superintendent of Lincoln county,
VS.. Bryan. school superintendent of Benton
county, growing ont of certain school
moneys in hands of said Bryan, and which
suit was won by Bryan by default Of

About Holm.

Reports have been circulated by
Amos Kisor to the effect that Mr..
Holm had not given satisfaction as a
teacher and would not he re employed
by the school board of Philomath dis
trict. These reports are wholly with
out foundation, as IS evidenced by the
following letter from H. P. McCul-
lough and L. F. Watkins, directors
of said district:
Philomath, Oregon, May 30th, 1894.
To whom it may concern:
We, the board of directors of the Philo-
math public schools, desire to express our
entire satisfaction with the services of Mr..
r. F. Holm, as principal of our school for
the past year. We consider his school work
an entire success, and we shall be glad to EN-
ploy him for the same position for the ensu-
ing year. We are yours most truly,
