Football will be revived at the

Football will be revived at the
Oregon Agricultural College
again this year, and the students
of that institution expect to turn
out championship eleven, says
Mondays Oregonian. Two
years ago the regents of the Ag,
ricultural College decided to
abolish all intercollegiate ath =
letic contests, as far as the Cor.
wallis school was concerned. This
experiment was tried for one year,
and found to be unwholesome
so last season a team was put in
the field, and efforts made to re-
vive the sport.
Last seasons eleven was a
weak one, victories being few
and far between, but this year
the Oregon Agricultural College
expects to do great things on the
gridiren, and other teams through
out the Northwest will have to
look to their laurels, or the
farmers will walk away with
the championship. Fred D.
Herbold, of Eugene, will coach
the Agricultural College team
this year, and he is most enthu-
siastic over the prospects for a
victorious aggregation. Mr..
Herbold is in Portland, and said
yesterday:
"The Oregon Agricultural
|, College will have the Champion
ship football team of the Pacific
Northwest this year. Besides
last seasons men, the team will
contain "Pap" Hayseed (McAl-
ister), Walter Mcbride and a
number Of old-time football stars,
all of whom will strengthen the
team. Games will be played
with all the colleges and univer-
sites of the Northwest, and with
Multnomah. The team will
probably 60 to California, as the
Corvallis boys think they are ca
pable of playing Stanford and
Berkeley. 1t is quite likely that
games will be played with the
University of Oregon, as we'll as
the University of Washington
and Whitman College. In short,
the Agricultural College will
have the best team in the North
west, and ought to win the cham
pionship over all comers.

PURELY SENTIMENTAL.

In all that has been said in IA
vor of giving Mrs. Waggoner Tie
$500, offered for the ''csp;u'e
and return" of the body Of David
Merrill dead or alive, we have
failed to find one sentence show
ing the justice of such a proceed
ing. Sentiment has been run
ming riot among the papers of
the state. and the argument we
hear is, "Don't be stingy; LET
the women have the reward. "
But that is not the point. There
is a principle involved in this
matter, and a precedent to be es-
tablished. Justice and reason
demand that Mrs, Waggoner
shall be rewarded for the service
she has dore the state, not in
ridding it of the wild animal,
Merrill-Tracy did that-but
for the benefit that will accrue
from a knowledge that Merrill is
dead. Let the authorities of the
state decide what compensation
is due Mrs. Waggoner for this
service. An exigency has arisen
which was not contemplated
when the original reward was Of
fered. Provision can be made
for meeting it, without yielding
to sentiment or cheating justice.
Supt. Lee has been severely
criticized, because he did not
meet Mrs. Waggoner at the
depot when she arrived in Sa-
lem and pour the $500 into her
apron. But it is probable that
Mr.. Lee remembered that the
money belonged to the people oi
Oregon, and that he had the
right to spend it, only when the
terms of the contract had been
complied with.
Mrs. Waggoner had made nc
effort to capture the convict.
She simply met one of the con-
ditions named in the offer of re-
ward: She returned the body.
Half of the reward, $3.50, is GER
tain1y all she should ask for.
Had the finder of Merrill's body
been man, strong and able
bodied, we venture the assertion
that there wouldn't have beer
one voice raised in favor of CIV
ing him the full reward. But,
oddly enough, Mrs. Waggoner is
woman, and it was given Out
at first that she was poor and &
widow. Then sentiment 1aic
hold of the editorial pen, and
columns have been written or
s'Pay the Widow" "Poor Mrs.
Waggoner," "She Needs the
Money!" and kindred themes.
Let us lose sight of the sex and
financial condition of the finder
of Merrill's body, and remuner-
ate that person in accordance
with the service rendered.

Much Interest Taken.

A correspondent to the Home
stead givesWillamette Grange the
following mention, which shows
that the work of the grange
holds the interest of the farmers
of that section:
Willamette Grange No. Sc,
Benton county, Oregon, met at
its hall On July 18th. We have
changed our regular time of
meeting from the first Thursday
to the second Saturday as many
of our families had children old
enough to join the Grange who
were at school. The change has
been a success though it makes
the Sunday mornings work
heavy for the house-mother one
Sunday in each month. None
will complain at that, however,
so long as it is SO great a benefit
to the order and to the children
we are bringing up in it, to take
our places by and by. We have
a live, active Grange now. Con-
ferred the first and second de-
grees Oil a young man and his
new wife. Of course the hay
fields drew many away but we
had a good attendance and a
good meeting. 1t has been our
custom for years to close our
Grange during August and Sep
tenber, but this year our Master
says the sisters can and will run
those meetings alone. If any of
the brothers can come they are
promised a welcome but no man
will be asked to speak, read, or
sing, as that will belong to the
sisters for those meetings. Be.
ing a woman, our Master has
faith in the sex rising o
any occasion-no matter wha t
comes up in the Grange work.

A Thrilling Experience,

The GAZETTE is in receipt of
a marked copy of the Brilnfeld,
Qllinois) News, containing an ac-
count of a recent experience of
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. H. Moore, who
left Corvallis some weeks ago to
visit their old Illinois home:
"Mr. ard Mrs. Jas. II. Moore
had a thrilling experience last
Thursday evening which they dc
not care to repeat. They were
visiting at Mr.. Connell's near
T1ivoli and were sitting in a
room chatting with members of
the family when a thunderstorm
came up and the house was
struck by lightning The lights
were extinguished by the shock
and several of the company were
knocked from their chairs to the
floor, but fortunately no one was
seriously injured. Mr.. Moore
says thunder and lightning are
almost unknown in his Oregon
home AID their friends admon-
ished them when they left home
to be careful and not get killed
in the Illinois storms. He thinks
their advice good now and says
he doesn't relish the idea of travel
ing a couple of thousand miles to
visit the old home and then have
the lightning make target OF
him. Hereafter when a storm
comes up he will make for the
cyclone cellar or crawl under the
bed"
