He Has Money.

A capitalist of some note, and a
large bank roll, dropped off here a
few days ago prospecting for in
vestments. He fell into the hands
of Mr., G, B. Ellis, who showed him
over the city and large scope of
the surrounding country, and sue
ceeded in selling him several pieces
of property. The gentleman is none
other than Mr.. l. W. lawson, of
Selbina, Mo-, who recently converted
his property in that place into
money and also sold out his interest
in the bank at that place and when
he left here it was with the avowed
purpose of returning soon to make
this place his home. We shall GER
tainly welcome HIM to our city.

Lights Turned Out.

The retail clerks have won their
victory, and from now on early
closing will be the order of the
evening. This is as it should be, We
thought all along as soon as those
merchants who were holding out
against early closing, were ap-
preached on the right side, they
would close their places of business
and thus give their clerks needed
rest and also take an hour or two
more for themselves. We are GER
tainly glad that the clerks have won
out without antagonizing the owners
and proprietors of the business
houses, and we hope it will ever be
than. Our city is blessed with set
of good clever business men and
they have gathered set of com
petent and clever clerks about
them and with these conditions
both understand each other and
both should and do work to the ad-
vantage, one for the other.

SHORTAGE OF COTTON SEED.
Belief That the Crop This Year Will
Be Tremendously Short.

San Antonio, Texas, April 2S.-
Developments which have come to
light today would Indicate that the
coming cotton crop of Texas will be
tremendously short, or at least
very late. An enormous area of
cotton land in central Texas has
been submerged by the recent flood
dnd the standing crops destroyed.
Planters appealed to the railroads
to help them get new seeds, but
diligent inquiry everywhere in the
state has brought to light the fact
that there are no available seed to
be had for replanting in the state.
Cotton seed for cattle feed and oil
during the past season brought as
high as sll per ton and farmers ev-
erywhere sold out clean with the
exception of just enough to plant.

Home Again.

Thomas Jones arrived home
Thursday frem Nome, having
quite rough trip down. He
spent a week or more in Astoria
and Seaside before coming on UP
to Corvallis. During his trip
north his wife remained at the
latter places with her relatives.
She accompanied her husband
home.
In the drug business he did
not accomplish much aud
brought the greater part of his
stock back with him, as he
could not realize more than so
cents on the dollar to close ii
out at Nome. His business To-
cation he still retains. The
great trouble with mining in
that country at present is that
everything is in litigation AID
the court didn't appear to be in
any hurry to straighten out mat
ters. Tommy was not at Nome
VIXEN the terrible storm did so
much damage there, but was on
the sea en- route home. The
steamer was tossed about like
an egg shell and they were fin
ally compelled to put back to
st. Michael for coal. At an
other time they put into Dutch
Harber for the same purpose.
The trip down was about twice
as long as it should have been
on account of the storm.

Mormon Elders Here.

Corvallis has had as guests fol-
the past few days, two gentlemen
of faith whose representatives
have never visited this city before.
At least, such an event is not a
matter of record. They are elders
of the Mormon church, and their
purpose in Corvallis is ''to correct
mistaken ideas which prevail, con-
cernirg the church of the Latter
Day Saints, commonly known as
Mormon" Elder A. T. Flinders,
Of Utah, and his associate from
Idaho, whose name we were un.
able to learn, are two prepossessing
young gentlemen of thirty or there
about. Last Saturday they ap.
preached Mayor Crawford to ask
permission to preach on the streets
of Corvallis. The mayor, being
without authority to grant such re-
quest, directed them to Police Judge
Ed. Grefoz, to whom they re-
eeated their petition, and asked
il house to house canvass in the
interest of their church would be
a violation of the ordinances of the
city. Their prayer was granted
with the admonition that they ore
ate no nuisance, or the police off.
GERS would be down Upon them.
Mormonism is subject of which
the average citizen has only a gen.
eral idea. Two things stand out
prominently in his confused notion
of this creed; one is the Mountain
Meadow massacre, and the other is
fierce Indignation of the country at
the attempted invasion of congress
by Congressman-elect Roberts, Of
Utah. The first had much to do
with the general hostility toward
the Mormon, and the latter shows
that that that hostility has not
abated. Utah is looked upon as
the black sheep in the sisterhood
of states, and it may be that this
visit of Elder Flinders and his col
league will result in better under.
standing of the real purpose of
their chu rch.

Objected TO Pants.

Rube Kiger is a great hand
for stock and is always planning
something for the comfort of his
animals. He has a vest-pocket
edition of a Jersey cow and she
is as great a pet as these little
things ever get to be. Last
Thursday, in order to keep the
''pesky' flies from bothering the
animal, Rube concluded to dress
her up more or less in pants.
This he proceeded to do, and the
lithle Jersey offered no resistance.
Before going any farther it
should be mentioned that the.
DOW was tied to a porch post Oh
the north side of Mr.. Kiger's
residences. When Rube had got
the pants adjusted on the fore
legs of his pet, he backed off to
admire the effect. For an in
slant there was a calm. Then
she seemed to go mad, bucked
and charged, and finally tore the
porch post out, nearly catching
Rube who was endeavoring to
impress her with, $50, bossy."
She headed south and tore
along in her pants, dragging the
post after her, at 2:4o gait.
No further damage was done. 1t
is suggested that plain pants are
a little too immodest tor a lady
COW and that the next time the
flies are bad Mr.. Kiger try her
with bloomers.

GAZETTE man Saturday, that he
had been making every effort to
have the road put in co-dition
for winter travel. The super
visor had failed to warn out the
men of his district for road work
and was responsible for the tenn
porary held-up in improvement.
It was unnecessary to inform Mr..
Irwin or the court of their duty,
or to imply. that they were dere-
lect in the performance of their
duty.
At the regular October term
of court, that boay served notice
on Mr.. Dunn to appear and show
cause why he.should not be rs-
moved, and a special session was
called for October I3th to con-
slider this matter. In the mean
time Mr.. John Richard was ap-
pointed to supervise the expen-
diture of the balance of the
trust fund, amounting to some
s55, in gravelipg a portion OF
this road. Mr.. Rickard passed
a subscription paper among the
business men of Corvallis and
succeeded in raising $o5 to be
used for the same purpose.

ployed, hauling eight loads each
every day, the work will be COM
