OF THE GREATEST MOMLNT.
President.

The people of Corvallis and of Benton
county should begin at once to prepare
material for the showing that this county
should make as to the commercial inl-
portance of the Yaquina harbor. Some
labor will be involved in preparing sta
&istics and such matter, and perhaps con-
81 lerable personal sacrifice of time on
the part of some of our leading citizens
will be necessary for the proper conpi-
1ation and presentation to the board CT
engineers of those facts with which it is
essential to impress them. The board
has called for public meeting at New
port on May the 18th. Other towns
throughout the valley are taking deep
interest in this matter, and Corvallis
should put committee at work at once.
This committee should be a represen-
tative one. 1t should be composed of
men who are familiar with the resources
of Benton county and acquainted with her
needs; men who have strong interest in
the welfare of the city and, county, and
who will enter into the work energeti-
cally and intelligently.~.ssW must inl-
press ourselves with the idea that lapse
of interest upon the part. of the people
of the Willamette valley at this time will
probab1y-ssresu in the withholding of
national aid for the improvement of our
natural commercial outlet
The people of California, particularly
residents of San Francisco, are realizing
what it is to be under the subsection of a
transportation monopoly. Their COM
plants are loud and bitter. Strenuous
efforts are now being made to build and
operate rival road to the Southern Pa
cifi:. Without the Oregon Pacific the
people of the Willamette valley have no
competing lines to that same system from
whose clutches Californians are attempt
ing to escape. The Oregon Pacific, not
withstanding its reverses and unfortunate
history, has saved to the citizens of this
lars in lowered freight rates. The pros
perity of this road and its aid to the resi-
dents of Western Oregon depends upon
the further improvement of the bar at
Yaquina.
Farmers of this valley should have
direct communication with tterorient by
way of Yaquina. Not only must deep
ening of the water on the bar be secured,
but steps must be taken to have the har-
Dor recognized and rated by the great
maritime agenciess of the world. Not
until then can Yaquina hope to be of
anything but local importance. !, No ship
can at present be chartered to ply between
Yaquinaassand foreign sports. 1t will be
useless to ask for survey of the harbor
by Lloyd's or other agencies, until the
water is of sufficient depth to admit the
tonnage of the world. The entrance to
the harbor is straight : It has not that
torturousness that is drawback to so
many otherwise good. .harbors. 1t is only
necessary to deepen, not change, the
channel. So far he.expense per foot of
added depth has been only SEC, 1000; a
remarkably low rate. By deepening the
water only few more feet Yaquina can
be rated as first-class harbor In order
to secure the fullest benefits of the money
already expended it will be necessary to
continue the work.

POLICE CALLED OUT.
Inter. Island Dock Reached in Quick
Time.

Shortly after II o'clock last
night Marshal Brown rushed out OF
the police station, jumped into s
brake snd dashed along Merchant
street at a gait that would eclipse
any record made at the park track.
Behind him came the police squad
on duty at the station, numbering
twenty-three, all armed with rifles,
and under command Of Captain
Parker. The Marshal turned into
Fort street and made toward the
Inter-Island wharf. The police
broke into 8 double-quick march
snd followed in the same direction.
The few people on the street and
the guards at the Custom House
and along the wharyes thought the
hlibustsrs were coming this time
sure, and general rush was made
TO see what the unusual proceeding
meant. Investigation proved that
the police were called out for
practice run. The 1nter-Islsnd
dock was reached in four minutes
and half. where the police were
drawn up into line and given s
drill for few minutes. The return
TO the station house was made in
ordinary marching time.
The turnout was very encourag-
ing TO the Marshal and Captain
and showed the police to
good advantage. 1t speaks well
for the force that they were able to
make the run in the time men,
SIS well SIS commendable
on their part, whether
the occasion wsS in earnest or for
practice.

BIG SLEEVES rw0fIIIfIrED

Not long since a great hue and cry
was heard in the land against the big
Int, and great was the war made upon
that style OF female headgear, and now
comes lamentations equally as loud
against the big sleeves which have
lately come in fashion. II this thing
continues. what is the fashionable
women to do to please the horrid men,
anyhow? But then, after all, there is
nothing new in Directing to tho big
sleeves. This is evident from the fact
that the Boston Transcript has found
an old municipal statute of the town Of
pedham, dated 1899, which reads:
"And be 1t further enacted. That
hereafter no person whatsoever shall
make garment for women or any
other sex with sleeves more than half
an ell wide IN the widest part, and go

PARK IMPROVEMENTS.

Now that the park has been brought
within easy access of the public by
reason OF the action Of the electric
road running its cars regularly to the
same on every trip, there are certain
needed Improvements the city should
make at the earliest moment for the
convenience, comfort and protection
81 the public. There should be neat
covered pavilion or station in close
proximity to the entrance to afford
shelter to visitors in case of sudden
transforms. There should alao be tele-
phonic connection with the city in case
OF emergency. and there should be a
special officer detailed from the police
force to see that order is preserved Cd
the grounds.
The indications are that the park
will be fayo rite resort for the public
hereafter. Hundreds will daily avail
OF Its advantages, and especially will
this be the case with the children OF
the city. Its beautiful roadways and
drives will be in demand, and it's lakes
and glens will be attractive spots.
Therefore 1t will be important for the
city to afford every facility for the
convenience, comfort and protection OF
the visitors.
