CORVALLIS, Or, OcT., 10.
To THE EDlToR:-A special cor
respondent from Portland to the
Herald Disseminator of the 10th
inst. says the nomination fol
mayor of our metropolis will un-
doubtedly be given to ex-Gov
ernor Pennoyer by the populls,
party. 1t is TO be hoped this may
prove true. Nothing could so eff.
fectively open the eyes of mis-
guided but well meaning populists
throughout the state az such ac-
tion by their leaders in Portland.
1t will then be manifest to the
dnllest populist in the state that
their party is controlled, as has
been charged, by those who pan
der to the morbid desiressof hobos
and criminals rather than give
support TO good local government
and sound business principles.
The mistake made i'm nominating
and eleciing Pennoyer governor
was emphasized i'll a very marked
degree by the governor himself
during 10th terms of hi admins.

IA man dangerous to a civilized
community and unsafe at large
unless kept in avery subordinate
position. Mawkish sentimentality
and morbid sympathy with crime
emanate from a weak intellect and
one who betrays either is unsafe as

That populists should seek &c

A sHAKzspEARRAN RECITAL.

That popular literary organization, wi ose
members have been engaged in the study of
Shakespeare during the past few months,
has arranged with Mr.. Hannibal A. Will
Jams, wellknown Shakespearean inter-
prefer, to give recital here Monday even
ing, Oct. 2Sth. His subject will be the ever
popular play of "Henry ~" Speaking OF
Mr.. Williams impersonations the Ore
gonian of the 18th has the following:
Last night very large audience, repre-
sentative of the culture and education of
Portland, was assembled at Arion Hall to
hear Mr.. Hannibal A. Williams, we'll
known Shakespearean reader and inter-
prefer, Of New York, in "The Tanning OF
the Shrew," the first of series of recitals.
Mr.. Williams is man of pleasant address
and of strong dramatic power. He held the
undivided attention of his audience for two
hours, during which time he rendered one
of the greatest of Shakespeare's comedies,
partly in an explanatory and partly in q
dramatic manner. The impersonationi
were admirably given, and the character
descriptions were clever delineations.
Mr.. Williams is in his 14th season, during
which time he has visited all the larges,
Eastern cities. This is his first tour on the
coast, and he has met everywhere with fiat
tering result..
The price of admission has been fixed al
so cents, students, however, will be ad
mitted at half price.

The efforts of Corbett and Fitz-
simmons to find a place where
they may hammer each other un-
molested, are developing the fact
that the United States has some
very energetic and determined
governors. Culbertson, of Texas,
finding the old law Ineffective,
called the legislature together and
had a new one made. Gov.
Clarke of Arkansas, who seemed
somewhat drowsy at first, has
rubbed his eyes and is assuming
the aggressive. He has personally
notified the principals that they
will not be allowed to fight in the
state, and says that their very
presence in Hot Springs will be
considered an overt act and treat
ed accordingly. A healthy mora
sentiment seems to pervade the
country, and the morality seem
to be of the 'sfitin' kind, and il
not content with mere mora
suasion.

AN OPEN RIVER.

The Independence West Side
and the Albany Democrat mildly
attack Senator Mitchell because
he will not promise to secure
appropriations for Willamette riv-
er improvements without he
recommendation of the govern
ment engineers. They say that
more has been spent in surveys
than in improvements. The Dem
ocrat believes that any river pilot
can inform the government of the
necessary work to be done, and
that the surveying business is all
rot"
These papers are earnest in their
advocacy of an open river. In
common with the rest of the Will
lamette valley press they realize
the Importance of immediate and
extensive Improvements. They
seem to attribute Mr.. Mitchell's
attitude to Indifference, or even
hostility, and while in no degree
abusive, blame him for not all
nouncing that he will obtain
appropriations Independent OF any
engineers approval. This paper
can not assume to speak for Sena-
tor Mitchell, but it seems father
unfair to scold him for not prom
Using to do the impossible. Unlor-
tunateiy, perhaps, for the. PROJECT
in point, but luckily for the health
of the national treasury, there is
not the slightest chance of obtain
ing governmental aid for water
way improvements unless the gov
eminent engineers recommend
such Improvements. The Oregon
delegation is not bashful in such
matters. They have a national
reputation for tenacity and liberal
ideas as regards their state claims,
in the river and harbor appropria
tions.
There is an actual necessity for
an extensive campaign against
the bars, snass and threatened
cut-offs of the Willamette. The
whole valley is deeply interested.
Mr.. Mitchell and Mr.. Hermann are
both outspoken in their utterances
and strongly favor an extensive
plan that will insure navigable
river from Eugene to Portland.
We don't want the appropriations
in dribleis or installments. The
existing bars ought to be removed
and the banks strengthened and
kept from washing into the river
to form new bars. This will
require great sum of money, but
our delegation, small as it is
numerically, has sufficient influ-
ence to obtain a liberal appropria
tion. The engineers must be
"punched up". first; made TO real.
ize the importance and necessity
of an open river, and they wllI
promptly formulate and recon-
mend the required plans.
This is matter worthy OF agita

crat have commenced bravely
But it would be more effective tt
