What Does It Mean?

i President Hartman, of the Southern
Pacific, recently rode over the G. & E.
railroad lines from Yaquina to tine sum-
NIT of the Cascade nountaiRs. 1t is
conjectured by railroad men that as Presi-
dent Hartman did not have time, while
IN Oregon. to attend certain other mat
ters it points to something brewing rela-
tive TO the absorption, by the Hartman
system, of the G. & E. The Oregonian,
speaking of this matter. says;
Railroad men have taken notice oil
these acts Of Mr.. Hartman, and some
of these men have reached the conclu-
sion that they point Enthusiastically to
negotiations that may mean the absofp-
tion of the Hammond railroad properties
into the Hartman ystem. Neither Mr..
Hartman nor Mr.. Hammond will admit
that such q deal is on foot, but Mr.. Har-
riman' S action in going out of his way to-
ride over such railroad as the Corvallis
& Eastern, when he could not spareethe
time to 60 oyer his own properties, is re-;
garded as more significant than words.
There is no doubt in any quarter that:
the Corvallis & Eastern is waiting for a.
purchaser, and if it should fall into the
hands of interests unfriendly to Mr..
Hartman it might make him good
deaf OF trouble. Therefore the presump
ton is strong that the Corvallis & East
ern will soon become incorporated in the
Hartman system.
Men who are well acquainted with rail
road matters aver that including this
line in transcontinental system could
not we'll be otherwise than beneficial for
Oregon, The G. & E. road has not yet
realized its original mission, and is in
some respects in state of partial paraly- |
sis, or arrested development, and it is |
easy to believe that under the protection
of larger railroad system it would be a /
far more profitable line.
By yoking this line up with some |
greater system there is no doubt that
new life would be felt along the line and
the country it traverses be benefited be.
yond expectation. Let US hope that the
day is not remote when the line of the
9. & E. will be a paying proposition
from one terminus to the other and that
said terminus will be much farther apart
han at present.

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR SENATOR.
Senator John D. Daily, bv the wisdom
and far reaching benefits of his legislative
acts, has become a prominent figure in
the politics of this state. Not only have
the interests of Benton county and the
Agricultural College been advanced by
reason of his service as legislator, but
great good has resulted to the state at
large. Sundays Oregonian has this to
say of Senator Daly's lieu land bill: n
.'Now that the sales of lieu land are
practically thing of the past in this
state, it is worthy of note that Oregon
made $500, 900 by a wise piece of legisla-
ton in 1895. The lieu land business has
always been more or less in the control
of attorneys, who grew rich off the busi-
ness that has thus passed through their
hands. This has been true regardless OF
the political complexion of the state gov
eminent.
''Prior to 1895 lieu land was sold for
81 .25 per acre, though it was worth much
more than that. e.
'In 1895 a bill was introduced to raise
the price of lieu land to $3.50 per acre,
just double what it had been before, and
to provide for lieu land agent to look
after the states interests. The lieu land
attorneys fought the measure by every
means known to professional lobbyists.
They introduced other bills which they
hoped to haye substituted for the ohjec-
tionable measure, and proposed all sorts
of amendments. John D. DAILY, the au-
thor of the bill, fought hard in it's de-
Tense, and finally secured its passage.
''The returns to the irreducible school
fund from this source have just doubled
what they would have been if the law
had remained unchanged, and it is esti-
mated that the school fund is $500 900
better off by reason Of the advance in
price" :.

TATIVE.
Marion Hayden, of Alsea, was the
unanimous choice of the Benton county
republican convention for the Office of
representative from this county. This
was high compliment to Mr.. Hayden's
fitness for the place, for there wera other
splendidly qualified men available i'll the
party for the position. Aside from the
fact that Mr.. Hayden has the ability to
represent Benton most efficiently, there
is the urgent necessity of sending to the
legislature man who will vote next
winter for a senator from this state
who will uphold the policies of Theodore
Roosevelt and the principles of the re-
publican party. Again, Mr.. Hayden, as
a member of the majority party in the
legislature will be able to accomplish far
more, than an equally competent man
could who was affiliated with the minor.
ity party.

TONGUE HIGHLY REGARDED.
His Efforts to Secure a $4,000 Increase
to the Good Roads Appropriation were-
Successful.

/ Successful
| EDITOR GAZETTE:
| In view of the congressional election,
people Of the First Oregon District will,
doubtless, be interested in knowing some
thing of Mr.. Tongues reputation in the
East, as member of congress. have
taken some pains recently to collect
some public opinions regarding Mr..
Ton gue's words and works.
That Mr.. Tongue can make convinc-
ing speech, is shown in tie fact that
when the agricultural bill weat through
the house. with Mr.. Cannon successfully
resisting any effort TO increase the appro-
priation, Mr.. Tongue, by one speech,
convinced even Mr.. Cannon himself that
$4,000 should be added to the amount
allowed for good roads investigation, and
the amendment was agreed .to-the only
one that was successful. After Mr..
Tongues talk, Mr.. Cannon turned to:
him and remarked, with good-natured
smile, THAT was a pretty good Speech.
Tongue; think it deserves an increase
OF appropriation. I guess will let it go
in"
The good roads movement has an ener-,
getic and alert friend in the Oregon rep
resentative. Last month I attended
session of the National Good Roads Con-
vention,. held at Charlottesville, Virginia
There was a number of prominent speak
ers. including Senator Hanna, Represen-
tative LittefelJ, OF Maine. and Mr..
Tongue, Of Oregon; but the address of
Mr.. Tongue was the only one authorized
to be printed, Returning on the train,
Senator Hanna said, We'll, Tongue,
they brought me down. for curiosity, |
but they depended on you for the solid
business"
At the agricultural department, they
say of Mr.Tongue, None know him but
to love him, none name him but to
praise" There is "a good reason for the
high esteem in which Mr., Tongue is held
n the Farmer" division, for he has
lone excellent service in procuring ap.
for needed Investigations. I
was allowed to make II copy of, the fol. |
owing letter which was sent to Mr.. I
Tongue:

CULTURE, OFFICE OF PUBLIC ROAD IN

My Dear Mr.. Tongue Responding to

N the subject of road improvement, and
shall be very much pleased to receive
lumber of copies here, so I may dis

TUDOR-GEEDING COMPANY.


The Tudor-Geeding Concert Company fur
nished the first of the Y. NJ. c. A. enter
tainments in the lecture course to be given
during the winter. The company. composed
of Miss Bessie Tudor, Miss Jessie Strauss
and Mr. and Mrs. Asa Howard Geeding,
rendered a programme of delightful music
and demonstrated its ability at entertain
ment in a series of numbers which pleased
the fair-sized audience attracted to Roberts
Park Church last night. The aggregation
is one of the high-priced concert companies
supplied to lecture courses by the Interstate
Bureau, of Cincinnati.
Miss Jessie Strauss. the violinist of the
company, showed much ability in her rem
dition OF several difficult numbers. In OPEN
ing she played Dvorak's "Sonatine" and in
this peculiar IAN and Wierd interpretation of the
melodies OF America which he thinks TO
be the folk songs Of the country she led
ne her audience In expectation until enabled
cOmplishment of difficult music. Miss
Strauss played from Sarasate the Gypsy
Melodies, seldom essayed by violinists not
finished in their art. AS encores to the
continued applause which marked the close
of her selections. she played Because" by
Schubert, and THE Bee
Mr.. Geeding, accompanied by Mrs. Geed-
ing, sang from Carmen the toreador song
in pleasing. although not strong, baritone
voice. The song selected was not the best
IOT a test OF the singer dDlllty ana ne
appeared better in other selections. He sang
Morse lullaby and an Irish melody called
"Off to Philadelphia" which was intended
to be funny rather than to give the singer
an opportunity for concert work. Cooks
1.-TWO Marionettes," short. simple number,
served as an encore after his first number
and for second encore Mr.. Geeding sang
''Heigh-ho, the Morning Dew" The other
vocal numbers by Miss Tudor were appre-
ciated by the audience. In soprano voice
of more sweetness than volume she sang
fro. sA.tA NJ n
Thee and the merit of her rendition re-
moved from the endless repetition OF the
lines the monotony of hearing them over
and again. Miss Tudor also sang
Sweetheart, Farewell" Schubert's who
Is Sylvan" and Spring by Henschel.
For an encore she sang lullaby from the
composition of Gaynor.
The closing number of the programme,
when the Wind Blows" by Smart, was
given by the entire company and APP

Lizette.

Mr.. Edward Marshall, author of this
readable novel, has doubtless felt keenly
the evanescence of newspaper fame and
turned to literature in the hope of prevent
ing his name from. being altogether for
gotten by seemingly ungrateful public.
Back In 1893. only few years ago, Mr..
Marshalls name appeared in every news
paper in the land. and almost any school
boy could have recited offhand that Mr.
Marshall was a great war correspondent
and was nearly shot and cut to pieces in
the fierce charge at FL Caney Now his
publishers feel IL necessary to recall that
tragic event in announcing this new book
from MIR. Marshalls pen. 1t is said that
small measure of his former health and
vigor since his Cuban experience, and that
he wrote this story beneath the scourge of
pain. One would not suspect this from
reading the book, for the little tragedy it
contains is almost obscured by the radiance
of Its romance. In Lizette Mr.. Marshall
has drawn heroine of most refreshing
type. She is in the Latin Quarter of Paris,
yet by no means of it, knowing little else
than love, she is yet able to enthrall a
man like John Murdoch, skilled artist and
strong financier, so that he leaves his i'm
mense fortune in jeopardy of a mighty
panic while he sails across the Atlantic
and searches France for her. Lizette's
anxiety not to bring ''the ruin" upon Muir
doch and her sacrifice of self to avoid this
imagined menace remind the reader of
Camille" but without suggesting plagiar-
ism. Lizette is like Camille only in this
particular, aside from which each is dis
tinct creation. Mr.. Marshall has also DEM
onstrated his ability in delineation of char
acter in Kentucky" the lovable failure of
the Quarter, and 1.-THE Old Woman Who
Sold Goals" Around these quaint char
acters and Lizette he has woven a charm
ing web of mystery that is cleverly I'M
raveled near the end Of the story. The
book deals mainly with the bright side of
life in 1.-The quarter and as Bohemia"
has a host of admirers Ii will scarcely
suffer for lack of readers. The cover de-
sign is out Of the beaten path, its light
green background being effectively relieved
by an admirable reproduction of a quaint
daguerreotype. The text is Illuminated with
delicately drawn sketches by G. ID. VIII
liams and j. e. Fireman. The book will
doubtless find favor as a holiday gift. New
