More Work OF Revetment.

The revetment east of town is to be
extended by the building of 500 addi-
tional feet to this end of that break-water.
A party consisting of Mayor Crawford,
Councilman Taylor and Jas. Smith and
citizens M. s. Woodcock, Robt. Huston,
P. Avery W. E. Yates and August Fis-
cher, visited Capt. Lang6tt and Lieut..
Ogden on board the Mathloma last week
to impress upon them the necessity of
extending the revetment and the desire
of the city that this be done, Capt.
Langftt informed the committee that he
had realized the necessity of extending
the jetty and had already ordered an
extension of 500 feet built. The visit of
the committee, however, evidenced the
interest the people of Corvallis are taking
in the work and their appreciation of the
danger which exists in the river finding
a new channel. The work which has
been done already by the crew of the
snagboat, under the supervision of Capt.
Galbraitia. is said to be of the highest
character. The additional work vii i be
completed as the stage OF the river will
permit.
The Telegram, OF Saturday, speaking
of the work being done here, says:
Captain w. G. Langftt has just re-
turned from an inspection trip to Cor
Wallis, where the work of building the
revetment is progressing. He says he is
Union gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1899-1900, 1900-01-19


well pleased with the work done, and
has no complaints to make except of the
weather. The rains have interferred
somewhat with the work and will make
the total cost more than was at first
thought.
There are about 60 men at work besides
the snag boat, aud with few weeks
of low water, the wall would be finished.
About 600 feet are well under way. 1t
may be that the revetment will be made
1900 feet instead of 1000 as originally in
tended.
The people of Corvallis are gree
interested in this piece of work, and
anxious to see it completed. If it
complishes the end for which it is inte
ed, the channel of the river will contin
to flow by the town; otherwise in time
the river will make a cut off which will
leave Corvallis high and dry and away
from the river.
Captain Langitt and his assistants are
sure that the revetment will prove sue.
cessful. and are using all possible speed
to complete it.
They had hoped for a cold January,
with little rain, which would have
brought low water, thus enabling the
workmen to put in better time.

Another Difficulty.

Another incongruity is exposed in the
registration law passed by the last legis-
lature in the following statement in
letter to this paper inquiring what should
be done in the case cited: "I see no
provision in the registery law for such a
contingency as happens in my family.
The last day of regist ering is May 10Th,
and my son becomes of age the 10Th, four
days after the closing of the register.
Ny son is legal voter under the consti-
tuition of the state,-the organic law,
not statute law, and does not want to lose
his VOTE" In the case above referred to,
the young man is in distant city where
it would be difficult for him to secure
witnesses to his age. An affidavit from his
father, however, would be sufficient and
easily obtained. Registration blank CA"
to which we referred last week, provides
that six free-holders must swear "that
We are each personally acquainted with
the elector and his residence as stated !;
that we believe all his other sta tements
are true"
Little difficulty would be experienced
in getting the signatures of six freehold.
ers swearing positively as to his residence,
and they are only asked to state that
they "believe all his other statements
are true" The law is going to work
some hardships. but it is believed that
serious trouble will be obvIated and the
final effect OF the law will be for the
public good.

Cheating the County.

There is palpable error in the amend
ment passed by the last legislature to the
law regulating the fees to be charged for
filing proceedings in matters in probate,
divorce cases, actions at law and similar
matters, which is depriving every county
IN the.state of much legitimate and neces-
sary revenue. Whether this error lies
at the door of the printer or to careless
ness on the part of others interested is
not in evidence, but the error is in the
general law, nevertheless. The law
originally provided that in proceedings
Of the nature mentioned, the plaintiff
should pay a fling fee of $500, where
the amount payed for was less than $500;
and $40, where the amount exceeded
$500. The law as amended simply pro-
vides for fee of S. In either event and
the.county is loser $500 whenever the
amount involved exceeds $500.
Senate bill 81, introduced by Senator
Mulkey. which contains the amendment
provided for the S. and $40 fees, but as
printed in the statute provision for the
$40 fee is omitted.
In the case of the defendant, however,
the law provides that he shall pay fee
of $3.50 when fling an answer when the
sum does not exceed $500, and IS where
the amount is in excess of $780,. Thus
where the figures named are over $500,
the defendant is obliged to pay as much
for filing as the plaintiff.

Worse Than Defeat.

The double athletic bill between the
basketball and baseball teams of the
o A G and Albany College, came off as
scheduled at the armory last Friday
evening. Aside from the brilliant team
work of the home girls there was little in
the basketball game to arouse enthusi-
asm. Albany was defeated by score of
AZ to 2. So perfect and rapid was the
playing of the ladies of the O A @, that
the visitors were bewildered, and gazed
open mouthed at the skill OF their
opponents.
The baseball team from the village
down the creek, made slightly better
showing, the carelessness Of the home
team of the latter part of the game, per-
mitting them to make three unearned
runs.
The Albany Herald thus explains their
defeat:
The excursion last night to Corvallis
was success, over 100 going over. The
young ladies basket ball team of Albany
College played the o A G team in the
armory at that place, the Corvallis girls
in beautiful and well played game
winning by a score of Al to 2. The de-
feat was caused in part by the floor
being in very slippery condition and
the hall was considerably larger than the
one the Albany girls have practiced in.
The ball used was also smaller than the
one used in former games. These cir
cumstances, together with the long and
hard practice of the o A G girls explain
away the apparent heavy defeat. The
game of indoor baseball between the
Atlas club of this city and the o A G
team was won by the latter by a score of
II to s. The game was well played on
both sides. The armory was well filled
with spectators. A return game will be
played in this city in a few weeks and
no doubt will be literally patronized.

Mondays Council Meeting.

Mayor Crawford has issued call to
the city council for special meeting
next Monday evening, for the purpose of
fixing the tax levy for the assessment of
the year 1899. for the city Of Corvallis.
The matter was neglected at the last
regular meeting of the council. The
levy will probably be the same as that
of last year. The charter provides that
tax not to exceed five mills may be
levied for general purposes. and this
assessment on the 1852, 800 worth of tax
able property in Corvallis will afford a
revenve of $2764, which together with
saloon licences of $2500 and fines and
other licences of probably $500 will give
the city $5764 for rnnning. expenses.
When the new sewer is completed our
Indebtedness will be in the neighbor.
Good Of $18, 600, which shows Corvallis to
be in better condition financially than
any other city ia the valley. Besides
this no city has better streets or public
buildings.
A two-mill tax will probably be levied
for street purposes. Much good work
has been done On the streets during the
past season and nice little balance re-
mains in the treasury. Were it not for
a little doubt as to the exact meaning of
the law which provides that this city
may levy two-mill tax for street pur-
poses, it is possible that only one mill
tax would be voted The law would
seem to mean that no other tax but
two-mill tax could be levied neither
greater nor less.
The state tax this year will be 6.3
mills; county tax, II mills; city tax
mills; for state school purposes, 5 mills;
state scalp bounty rs, mills Il for special
school purposes, 2.5 mills, making total
of 2.05 mills. The tax last year was
"a I mills.

A Fortune id Stock.

The following letter, dated Manila,
November 80, 1899, is in reply to an
inquiry addressed to the writer by Mr..
J. L. Castle, the well known stock buyer
1t will be of particular interest to those
who have been considering the feasibility
of introducing American horses into the
Philippine Islands:
Replying to yours of October 18th.
The native horse of the Philippines seem
to answer every requirement for light use
and could not advise you to ship our
horses as the expense and risk of landing
them in good order would make them a
y expensive luxury. The U. s. has
), 1t large number of cavalry animals
here and they have given good satisfac-
ton and are much admired by civilians.
There are number of horses here inn
ported from Australia, but the native
horse will undoubtedly always be SO cheap
in comparison that the demand for inn
ported horses will be light. The native
horse is one-third lighter and shorter
than ours, but is very good animal an d
in times of peace is very cheap. A few
good American horses would undoubtedly
find market here, but wsuld not adj
wise their shipment unless you have
plenty of means to stand loss as sue
cess is problematical. The same might
be said of American wagons, buggies etc.
The country is exceedingly well adapted
to stock raising and the first American
stock raisers with'a good herd Of dairy
stock would, in my opinion, make a
fortune.
If you can afford to do 80 bring a
dozen good roadsters OF medium size and
few light rigs and try the situation.
This Is the only way to really know what
could be done. I would be pleased to
give you better encouragement, but I can
not conscientiously recommend the ex-
pertinent.
Very truly yours,
II. r. LEWIS.

In Favor OF Rickard.

The case Of Brandeberry vs.. Rickard
which was argued ct the November term
of court and which has since been under
adyisement by Judge Hamilton, has
been decided in favor of the defendant,
Sheriff Rickard. The decree directs
that the costs shall be paid by the plain
tiff.
Readers Of this paper are familiar with
the details of the case, which grew out of
the sale of the hop yard of William
Mackay and W. A. Wells in which j. N.
Brandeberry held an interest. In the
sale of the land there was an excess of
$1,000 in the proceeds over the mortgage
on the property. Of this amount, Brande-
berry claimed $500, but the sheriff
paid the entire amount to Mackay.
Brandeberry brought action against
Rickard to recover the $500, but the
decision of the court sets this aside and
vindicates the action of the sheriff.
