Mr.. Ingle Won.

The case of j. w. Ingle VS. City of
Philomath, in which the plaintiff sued
the city OF Philomath for $1.75, came on
for trial in Justice Bryson's court Tnes-
day afternoon. Mr. Ingle acted as his
own attorney and the defendants inter
ests were looked after by Lawyer Ed.
Bryan. Jerry Henkle, William Boles,
William jolly and DIR. Logan were call
ed as witnesses for the city and Rufus
Holmes was witness for Mr.. Ingle.
. During the progress of the trial an in
cident arose which came near making
the jury judges of battle royal rather
than staid and sober arbiters of case at
law. By dint of coercion on the part of
the justice and suasion by the lawyer,
bloodshed was averted,
The jury, which consisted of w. o.
Heckart, Jas. Flett, J. W. Stewart, J.
w. Wilbanks, r. E. Gibson and John
Barnhart, rendered a verdict for Ingle.

THE WADE BROS.
A corvallisite Tells of Their Success at
O1ex,

A corvaIlisite Tells of Their Success at
The many friends of the Wade Bros.
recently with r. M. Wade of this city
will be glad to learn that they, as the
saying goes, ARE strictly in it'' in Gillian
Co. They have erected store and ware
house at Olex that is credit to the ceun-
ty, the building covers 116x50 feet. The
store is l00x26 with 40-ft front all fit
ed up with ratchet shelving and every
thing in modern style. The building COW
ers cellar full size of building and feet
deep walled with stone laid in cement
and mortar making at once solid foun-
dation and a commodious storeroom
both for hot and cold weather. The up
per story contains hall 78x26 feet, also
reception and ante rooms fer lodge pur-
poses with two large front Offices all fit
ted up in modern style the hall for pub
lie assemblies and especially dancing
purposes is not excelled in the county.
The warehouse is 24x10O and connected
with the main building and is filed with
farming utensils. They carry general
merchandise stock and will sell. you to-
day at reasonable prices anything from
a cambria needle to combined harves-
ter and thresher, or from spool of thread
to bolt of grossgrain silk.
The town of Olex is located in the CEN
ter of large wheat and stock country,
and to let some of Web-foot people under
stand what is meant by large wheat
fields will say, that one can stand on the
main road from Condor, Fossil, Olexland
two aAd half miles from the latter place
and look on lwheat as far as the eye can
reach on either side of the road until the
horizon shuts out the view.
The farmers in this section are perfect.
ly satisfied with so cents per bushel for
wheat (although they will take more),
the soil being so much easier titled and
they have longer season for both sowing
and harvesting, the season last year for
instance lasting 80 days and coming then
up to Christmas, they also have larger
yield good crop being 80 bushels to the
acre.
The Wade Bros, this is the firms name,
have recently purchased ranch contain
ing about $40 acres the price being $25O0,
on this place there are 225 acres summer
fallow which they will seed this winter
and if next year the crop is good will
clear the price of the ranch easily. The
boys together own about 1000 acres of
land and considerable stock.
They have expended about $25, 900 and
have come to. stay. Sherm says that there
is just enough competition to make trade
lively and he ought to know. He is a
strictly honorable and competent busi-
ness man, and we join with his many
friends in hoping that the sun now rising
over their business enterprise may never
set until their utmost expectations have
been realized.

Bid for the intercollegiate Football
Championship.

AAS Os ~ -. EISfSn VIII MAKE q obToh2
Bid for the intercollegiate Football
Championship.
The OAC will have football team
this season. Not just eleven men who
can fall around over whitelined grid
iron and 60 through signals, but team
that will be credit to the institution
and terror to all aspirants for college
football honors. A meeting of the col
lege boys was held last Monday evening
for the purpose of organizing a team
and electing officers. From the number
in attendance and the enthusiasm mani
tested, it is evident that all the college
spirit will not be found down town this
season, as has been the case in the past.
Fred Walters, crack guard and ex-
pe-ienced player, was elected captain J;
j. FL. Gallagher, a veteran of former
teams, manager, and E. r Bryson, as
sistant manager. Walters and Elgin
were elected delegates to attend the
meeting of footballists at Salem tomor-
row.
Much is expected of the OAC team
and Corvallis is going to be woefully
disappointed if champion eleven is
not developed. The Eugene Guard of
the 23rd, has writeup of the U of o
team and what it is doing and shows
respect for OAC by remarking: ''The
OAC will make every effort to avenge
her overwhelming defeat of last season.
All her players who went to Manila have
returned and the best men OF her '9S
team are back again. The '99 team at
the OAC will. be the strongest ever put
out and football "cranks" look for an
contest between it and the
q. of o."
The q of o held its first practice game
last Monday, and with Simpson for
coach, and nearly all of last years team
the lemon this season we
must expect the best college eleven ever
seen in Oregon. The OAC has some
thing to strive for. Manager Gallagher
is in correspondence with coach, and
every effort is being made for early opera
tions. At a meeting Of the student body,
Tuesday, tax OF $1.00 for each male
student, and so cents for each female,
was levied for the benefit of the athletic
fund and football will get its share of
this liberal donation. The citizens and
business men of Corvallis are ever ready,
as in the past, to assist in forwarding any
enterprise touching the welfare of stu
dents and the college, and may be relied
upon to give any support due from them
to the coming football team of OAC.

The Shirley Company Again Playing to
Large Houses

Tie Shirley Company Again Playing to
Large Houses
Corvallis theatre-goers are again in
debted to Miss Shirley and her capable
company for numerous evenings of
amusement. The company began a
week s engagement Monday evening and
each performance has drawn large and
representative audience.
'Trilby," which was presented We'd
nesday evening probably affords the en-
tire cast an opportunity to appear to the
best advantage of anything done so far
this week. Miss Shirley as 'Tri1by"
makes judicious use of all her oppor-
tunities. In truth, We have seen her do
nothing better. We note in her work
steady, logical progress since her last ap-
pearance here, the result of earnest,
thoughtful application and study. She
is competent actress and can be de-
pended upon to give an intelligent repre-
sentation. She has personal attractive
ness, a sympathetic voice and well-bred
leading roles she is called upon to per-
form.
While 'Trilby" may be the strong char
acter in DuMaurler's novel, il Mr.. Pal
mer's dramitizatien she yields the stage
to "Svengali," Mr.. McQuarrie sustains
the illusion of this most exacting part
quite creditably. There are bits here
and there of which even Mr.. Wilton
Lackaye might well be proud. In
"Svengali' that certain annoying quail
ity of Mr.. McQuarrie's voice is not notice
able and we see him near his best.
Mr.. Abram has not the qualities for
Little Billee," but given the opportunity
he is one of the strongest members of
the company.
A 'Taffy' Mr.. Plummer is splendid.
In fact, his work during this present en-
gagement has been most clever,
Mr.. Clayton has grace and pleasing
manner, but he is always Mr.. Clayton.
He is unfortunate in having to stand
comparison with Mr.. Cooley, Miss Shir-
ley's leading man during her former en-
gagement here.
Miss Baker is entitled to much praise
for some admirable bits of acting, and
Miss Bond is fast winning favor.
We suspect that she has more ability
than she has yet been called upon to dis
play.

s'We had no apparatus for cabling on
board ship. But even if we could have
obtained it, the cable company would
have been obliged to refuse to receive or
transmit messages in that way. It could
not have afforded to do anything that
would enable the Spaniards in case they
returned to power in Manila after the
war to withhold payment of their subsi.

worth while to waste time over the ques
ton of ratios" or haggle about the
word "free" coinage. The basis of our
metallic currency was established by
Benton and Jackson; in fact, Benton is
the father oil the Is to ratio and this
country will never have any other. The
contention for free coinage of silver, or
in other words, the right of anyone
owning silver, to take it to the mint and
demand its coinage into silver dollars, is
not practical and is contrary TO the
practices and rules of the government
since its foundation. The constitution
of the United States provides that con-
gress shall have power ito coin money
and regulate the value thereof" This
power is to be exercised by congress for
the best interests of the people. The
amount of silver or gold that should be
coined in any .iven year and the pro-
portion should be governed by the de-
mands of the agricultural, laboring and
business interests of the country We
have practically the gold standard and
the ratio of 16 to l ior coinage purposes
now and that is all the common people
want Those who are clam0ring for
currency reform are generally that class
of corporations and syndicates who want
the power of national banks enlarged
and they furnish the circulating medium
for Hthe country. This is a dangerous
power and the same that was ground to
powder under the heels of "Old Hick-
! ory" Another class want to food the
country with irredeemable paper or fat
| money, but neither of these schemes are
! practical for the best interests of the
people.
The claim that currency reform as ad-
vocated by men who arrogate to them
! selves the position of financial guardians
of the nation is necessary to prevent an
other endless chain is not well founded.
If President Cleveland and his secretary
of the treasury had dealt honestly with
the government aud the people there
would have been no endless chain, nor
sale of bonds. The men and syndicates

Let the democratic party stand by the
principles of Jefferson the founder of the

chased of France much larger territory
than Mckinley purchased ef Spain, that
it contained Spanish, French, Italians,
Africans, Creoles and thousands of In
dians. That democratic. adninistra-
tian extended over them the strong arms
of American power and gave them the
benefits and blessings of free govern
ment without their consent and against
their will, and where is the American

Democracy Brains Being knocked Out
With Club of Its Own Making.
The editor of the TINES is in receipt of
the following emphatic and time'y
nudge from Judge John Burnett, to
which he attempts reply with RAM
bling narration of Napoleon Bonaparte's
ambition to form colonial empire in
the new world, and other interesting
items of history equally wide of the marx :.
1t is worthy of note that he studiously
avoids any reference to the financial ques-
ton which is the very pith of Judge
Burnett's remarks. The letter appeared
in the TINES of the 23rd.
Mr.. EDITOR The political forces of
the country are gradually forming in bat
tie array for the conflict next year. The
red gold rose of Lancaster against the
white (silver) rose of York. The state
elections this fall are mere forerunners of
the grand battle of 1900. Great interest
seems to be centered in the financial
question, and it appears now that We are
TO go through the same farce we did in
1896, with probably the same result.
The republican leaders will rally under
the banner of 'the single gold standard" !"
while the opposition will reiterate the
Shibboleth of tsfree silver at 16 to u and
then we will go at it, Hammer and
Tongs," when in fact there is no such
issue and no room for such one.
But as long as our democratic leaders
will furnish the republican party club
to beat out our brains, we can't blame
them for using it. IF the theory of the
single gold standard leaderssis true then
it is the duty of this government in JUS
tice and common honesty to recoin all
the legal tender silver dollars which
were coined at ratio OF 16 to at a
ratio of 80 to 1. With five hundred mil
lions of legal tender silver-redemption
money this impractical visionary scheme
can never be carried out. What the
people want is blmetallic currency and
that we have now, and it is the best
financial system in the world, With a
republican administration coming silver
at ratio of 16 to l to the extent of q
million and half month it is hardly

HOME AGAIN.
After seventeen Months of Service In the
Philippines Gene Simpson is Home
for a Visit.

After Seventeen Months of Service In the
Philippines Gene Simpson is Home
for Visit.
Gene Simpson arrived Wednesday on
4 visit to his parents after an absence of
over two years. During that time he
has seen service with the LIST Califor-
mans in the Philippines. Many will re-
member his letters from Manila, which
were as good as any written by nrofes-
sional correspondents from the Islands.
He enlisted as musician in the regi-
mental band. playing both cornet and
saxephone. Iu the fight with the Span
iards August 18th, however, he was on
the firing line and for many months he
and his fellew bandsmen exercised more
with rife than with musical instru-
ments
Early last spring his regiment was put
on garrison duty on the island of Negros,
which Gene considers one of the most
valuable in the entire group. 1t is about
100 miles long by 40 miles wide and ex.
ceedingly fertile. The natives have a
rather crude form of government, the
most prominent buildings being peni
tentiaries.
While the inhabitants profess friend
ship for the Americans, they are treach
erous as Satan, both towards each other
and their newly found masters.
On the voyage home the transport
bearing Genes regiment remained a
week at japan. For $3.50 pilot was
secured who took the vessel through the
wonderful inland sea, from whose banks
a grand panorama OF plantations and
gardens slope away in beautiful terraces
to the SUBMITS of the surrounding hills.
Taking the train, they sped away 25
miles inland to Toxic, the capital city of
this grand empire.
With the exception Of two men slight
ly wouHded the California band got home
without casualties. Don Ray, who played
tuba. returned scarcely more than a
shadow OF his former SELF The regi-
mental surgeon pronounced his malady'
quick consumption, but Gene states that
when he left for his home at Grass Val
ley several days ago he had improved
much in health and weight.
George Clark, another Corvallis boy
who served with the Californians, was an
ideal soldier. Always ready for duty call,
an expert marksman, Uncle Sam had few
better meA in the service. He is en-
ployed as moter-man in San Francisco
Luther Smith entered the army as "a
private, but through the efforts of the
bandmen he was detailed bass drummer.
Later he was transferred to the hospital
corqs where he proved himself of such
value, that he remained at this work
until his muster out. He has in view
an excellent situation in the city and it
is most probable that he will not be abe
to visit Corvallis.
Gene had many offers of positions, as
committee iu San Francisco secured
employment for all of it's volunteers, but
while he never answered sick call while
in the service, he is much in need of rest
and quiet.
