Sea Breezes Avoid Albany.

'The question is often asked, says the
Albany telescope, "why it is SO windy at
Corvallis and not here. It is explained that
the sea breeze starting from the ocean strikes
Corvallis first and goes to sleep. thus never
reaching the remainder of the valley"
The above illustrates the contrast between
the readiness with which some people can
comprehend fact, and the difficulty they
have in explaining it. 1t is true we have a
delightful sea breeze every Summer after
noon, while Albany lies sweltering in the
scorching sun, but the wind don't go to
sleep in Corvallis. The wind don't sleep
the wind is an active agent, and loves stir
and life. 1t naturally avoids Albany. We
feel sorry for our sister town, but we can c
blame the wind. Speaking of sleeping, re.
minds us that Albany has an abiding fond.
ness for the arms of Morpheus. Twas but
little over a year ago that Albany had
quite fire, but didn't know it until mott.
fed over the hone by the Corvallis
nightvatch.

THE WAR ABOUT OVER.

The insurance rate war that has been rag
ing for some time in California, struck Cor;
Wallis last Thursday with all its fury. Cor
Wallis can congratulate herself that her bug
mess is deemed Of considerable importanc.
among the insurance fraternity, for the first
gun in the campaign against exorbitant
rates in Oregon was fred in this city.
The history of this war dates back te
1885, when the underwriters doing business
ON the coast organized the Pacific Insurance
Union for the purpose of charging uniform
rates, according to localities. But by til
tariff put into effect, Oregon, and es pee.
tally Corvallis and vicinity, was treated
with injustice. It is well known fact,
that in mushroom towns over the coast, the
same schedule of rates was in foIco as here,
staid and old-settled community.
Tiring of the dictation and interference of
foreign companies, A. E. Magill, manager Of
the Pheaix, of Hartford, and Home, OF
New York, two of the leading American
companies, resolved to pull out of the com
bine and undertake the task of righting the
wrongs done Oregon policy holders without
assistance. With this end in view, Capt.
Magill dispatched special agent A. f.
Gartner and corps of assistants to Cor
Wallis last week to open the fight, and since
that time his companies have written up
wards of s25, 900.
From the outset Messrs F. NJ. johnson
and Geo. F. Eglin, the companies local
agents, marched at the head of the pro-
csssion. In only few instances were the
other local agents able to meet the sweep
ing reductions offered by the Phoenix and
Home and as a result the latter captured
the business. The first point of attack was
the public school building upon which was
policies aggregating $4,000, the premium
being only $39 for three years, thus saving
nearly $4OO or enough TO dsfray the cost of
maintaining the school for one month.
furniture therein at exceedingly low rates,
saving to the taxpayers over $700. A SINH
lar reduction was made in the city hall in
surance upon which was saved $50.
The policy of the leaders in the rate war
has been to make an especial effort to cap
turs ''gilt edged" risks and they are to be
congratulated upon the success which they
have attained. Upon this line greater re-
ductions were made than upon commercial
risks. No cuts were made in frame ranges
but stocks and brick blocks were written at
from so to Is per cent. off former rates.
The estimated saving in premiums to in
sursrs upon policies written by Messrs.
johnson and Eglin during the past week is
In the neighborhood of $4,000 or $4,000.
by these two live local agents should make
haste in bringing in their policies, for pres
emit rates are likely to be suspended at any
time

THE cApruRRR CAPTURED.

Jacob Holgate, of Lincoln county, brother
of Judge Holsats, of Corvallis, had white
elephant on his hands one day last week, or
to speak more truthfully, a brown sea lien.
1t was q case of the hunter hunted. Driv-
ing along the beach, on Sunday afternoon,
he espied sleeping animal on the sands,
which closer scrutiny proved to be sea
lion. An irresistible inn; ;nlse to capture the
animal siezed friend Jacobs mind, and re.
msmbeIing the time when he acted as cow
boy on the plains of Illinois, he made lasso
out of rope he had in the wagon, which he
dextrously threw over his victims head, tie
ing the other end to the wagon bed, and he
whipped up his horses and started to drive
home. But he only started Mr.. Sea Lion
concluded that he would go home, and he
seemed to have the better of the argument,
for in spite of whip and halloo, the wagon,
team and driver travsled rapidly toward the
briny deep. The sea lion, Instead of Jacob,
was about to have curiosity to exhibit to
the bosom of his family. Mr.. Holgats has
wife to whom hs has been married great
many years, and he consi iders her the apple
of his eye. He had no desire, whatever, to
make the acquaintance of tho mermaids,
and as the hind wheels of the wagon began
to roll into ''salt chuck" he whipped out
his knife and eut the link that bound him to
his visitor from old ocean. The sea lion
disappeared with sort of chuckle, and
Jacob drove home alone, hut alive.

THREATENED WITH ARREST.

A clash of authority in church circles
seems to be agitating the minds of residents
of the Bsllfountain neighborhood. The
Campbsllites of that vicinity hao arranged to
begin campmseting last Thursday at tho
Bellfountain campground. but at the elev-
snth hour, q Methodist preacher named
Arnold, who lives in that vicinity, gave
notice that should they proceed with meet
ings, arrests would follow on charges of
trespassing. Fearing that Arnold's threat
would be carried out, tho campers moved
to grounds adjoining aud there began their
meetings unmolested. From what can be
learned regarding the matter Arnold acted
without authority, and by his bullying at
titude displayed woeful lack of true Chris
tianity. 1t seems that the title to the Bell-
fountain campgrounds is held by the Metho.
dists, but the money for the purchase of the
land was contributed by people living in the
neighborhood, with the understanding that
the grounds were to be used by all denomi-
nations for religious services, and that they
could also be used by the general public for
4th of July celebrations and other general
gatherings. Previous to announcing their
campmeeting tho Campbellites had obtained
permission from majority of the board of
directors for the use of the grounds, and had
gone ahead preparing seats and making
other necessary arrangements for their
meeting, only to have their plans frustrated
by Arnold's edict to the effect that they
would be arrested for trospass should they
go on with the program. A gentleman from
the Bsllknap settlement, who, was in town
Saturday, says that Arnold is very unpopu
lar, and that his course In this matter is
severely condemned by the Methodists liv-
ing in the nsighborhood.

RETAINS HIS cLIENrs.

Some persons have faculty of holding
business no matter what obstacles besst
their course One of such is w. E. Yates.
Though he is not driven to desperation for
lack of clients, he has many, he believes
in holding them at all hazards. Last week
D. w. Prichard called on him regarding
some college matters. Being busy at the
time, Mr.. Yates invited the visitor into an
adjoining room to remain for few moments
until he should be at leisure. Here he
waited, and waited, expecting to be called
at any moment. Finally he concluded to
walt no longer, and gently opened the
door into Mr.. Yates private Office, only to
find it vacant and the outside entrance
thereto securely fastened. 1t was then tho
dinner hour and sudden and intense desire
to be hoze in the besom of his family
seized Mr.. Prichard. A hasty glance
through the several offices convinced him
that he was prisoner. Egress through a
doorway was out of the question. The
only possible means of escape was via the
transom. A table was placed against the
door and upon it box, and upon the latter
chair. Mounting this tottering structure,
he opened the transom. but to his dismay
the opening was too small, and after repeat
ed attempts he came to the conclusion that
a man with o 80 inch girs couldn't get
through an eight-Inch opening. Just how
long time it required for the prisoner to
comprehend this is not known, but about
two hours after his departure Mr.. Yates
returned, and to his apparent surprise.
found his client wedged under the transom
in complete state of exhaustion. After
releasing Mr.. Prichard from his perilous
position, restoratives were administered and
the business which he came to transact was
concluded without further mishap. Here.
tofore it has been the practice for clients to
retain the lawyers, but Lawyer Yates seems
to have reversed the custom by retaining
the clients. At the next meeting of tho
state bar association this matter is likely to
receive serious consideration. Mr.. Yates
conduct may be adjudgsd unprofessional,
which would certainly cause his disbarment.
