 The Russian government assumed control of the liguor traffic of that country. A cork trust was thereupon formed for the purpose of making the government pay exorbitant prices for cerks. But the government promptly established cork factories of it's own, and is now entirely independent of the private cork concerns.

MT and would have fired it at congress at once but the house bosses succeeded in getting him to go slow awhile, to give them q chance to see what they can do.

Speaking of the debate on the ship subsidy bill, q correspondent says that Senator Clay was followed on Friday by Senator Hanna, who, with q Sledge hammer style of oratory, reiterated all the republican sophistries ill regard to protection and claimed that because ill the past it had been the policy of the government to build up hot-house industries there must be no deviation from the policy. The debate oil this bill will continue until the 17th inst, when vote will be taken. Senator West will address the senate on the subject soon, if his health will per- init. The bill reported by the senate committee on judiciary for the pro- tection of the president has also re- ceived some consideration. It is op- posed by many of the democratic mem bers on the ground that it is contrary to the constitution in that it is an ex- tension of the law against treason and is q violation of the rights of the sovereign states. The democratic opposition to the bill is out lined in the following in- terview with a prominent senator: My opposition to the measure in which 1 am supported by the entire democratic minority of the committee on commerce, is based on the factSthat porting the foreign mails from $1,S0O.- GOO to upwards of $3,OO0,o00 without securing to the government any ade- quate return. I desire to see the mail service of the United States as perfect as that of any country i'll the world, but this bill does not provide for the establishment of q single new route, nor for the construction of q single bill this greatly increased sum will be paid to the owners of ships already in commission and sailing over routes now established. If there is need of increased facilities for transporting the mails why has not the postmaster general been called before the com rnittee as an expert witness, to indicate in what direction the increased funds may be best expended? As to the simple subsidy provision of the bill, there is no necessity for such legisla- ton. Our shipping trade is constantly increasing. We retain, by statute, all of the coaStwise trade for our vessels and as, in the past that has been the most profitable, it has absorbed every increase in American shipping, but there are now ample vessels engaged in it and the attention of American ship owners is naturally turning to the foreign trade Our ship yards have orders exceeding their utmost capacity Our vast mineral resources, our improved methods of production and the superior productivity of the American laborer and artisan com bined, more than eounterbalance any difference there may exist between American and foreign wages, and without this unnecessary and extrav
 agant legislation the American ship ping industry will, in the near future, lead the world in it's field as do Ameri- can industries in other lines"

HIS LADY's PRESSES.

Sarah, the first Duchess of Marlbor, ough, whose tempestuous character lacked many of the ordinary graces of womanliness, was yet sincerly loved by the two persons who knew her best her husbend, the Duke of Marlbor- ough, and the sgood'' Queen Anne. Among the many pictures which Fitz- gerald Motley, the latest biographer of the duchess, has incorporated in his Life" is one which is not only lively but charming
 On the death of the duke the duch- eSs found in a cabinet where he kept all that he most valued a mass of her hair. Years before, when he had thwarted her in something, she resolv- ed to mortify him, and knowing that her beautiful and abundant hair whs q source of pride and delight to him she had it cut off.
 The shorn tresses were left in q room through which the duke must pass and in q place where lie must see them, for whatever Marlborough s lady did she did it thoroughly. But he came and went, saw and spoke to her and showed neither anger sorrow nor surprise
 * When he next quilted the house she ran to see her tresses but they had disappeared, and on consulting her looking glass she saw how foolish a thing she had done. but she said noth- ing about her shorn locks, nor did the duke. She never knew what had be- come of them until after the death of the duke she found them among those things which he had held most prec- s.-Youth's Companion.

STORAGE OF SURPLUS STOCK.

Tn Ecuador. they mine gold by hy- draulic power and must do it i'll day light But the streams are full of wa day. So long as people lamented the nocturnal sover-productiOn' of water, they produced no wealth. When they built dams to store the water at night, they provided means to mine by day. This is striking example of the way we must turn to profit all cases of temporary surplus production of staple commodities. It is during periods of large production that we can most economically gather reserve stock of such products as we know are sure to be in demand during pe- riods of recurring prosperity.
 Thus we see that man, though slowly, is learning to understand the wisdom of nature ill giving him her products i'll temporary excess of cur rent consumption, and that what man has long regarded as the disturber of regularity, and called oyer-production. was nature persistent1y thrusting up- on his attention the only condition out of which he could possibly accumulate wealth and create regularity. If tenn porary surplus production of perish able products like fruit and vege- tables is the only condition available for increasing consumption and creat- ing stability in the supply and prices of these things, is it not reasonable to believe that temporory surplus pro- duction of imperishable articles. like iron and copper, is the only condition available for creating stability in the supply and prices of these staples? To waste the labor and the facilities to produce such commodities to full capacity in dull times. when it is cer- tain they will be in great demand in active -,mes. as Talleyrand says: ssIs worse that crime; it is a blrnder."-- George H. Hall, in The Engineering Magazine for March.

 And each on fancy lines: There's patent cures for all diseases
 Except the use of wines. We know not if they tell the truth,
 But this we say to thee: For health and strength and merri-
 ment,
 Drink Fenton's Breakfast Tea. There are many imitators
 Of our business and our art, And there may be some pretenders
 Who may fancy they are smart. But we stand before the public
 As solid as can be, And the best produce from China
 Is Fenton's Oolong Tea. We are not monopolistic
 In the race for mundane game; We'll treat you well whene'er you call At Jefferson and South Main. That is an old established house
 Where many things are free, And all our goods are up to date,
 Like Fenton's Ceylon Tea.

M. O. Hart is Dead.

NJ. o. Hart vas born in Cicero, N. Y.
May 25th, 1850. He died at his home in
Corvallis last Saturday evening at
O'Clock. He was the victim of an acci-
dent sometime last spring, which inca
pacitated him ssfor work.. but he was able
to be about until two mouths ago. since
which time he has been confined to his
home. While his death is not traceable
to the injuries received at the time of this
accident, they probably contributed to
his recent Illness!
At the autopsy held Sunday it was dis
covered that tumor had formed in the
left side of the head, and softening of
the brain had set in. The immediate
cause iof death, however, was bleod
clot which had formed near the tumor.
The funeral occurred from the Wilkins
Undertaking Parlors yesterday afternoon
at 2 O'Clock, under the auspices of the A.
o. q. W., OF which organization he was
a member. Interment was made in

Has Prospered.

A clipping from a paper pub
lished at Weatherferd, Okla,
has been handed to us, and it is
a write-up of G. Stettler and his
business. Two very attractive
half-tones accompany the article.
One is a cut of --4r. Stettler, and
it is very good, indeed. The
other is an interior view of Mr..
Stettler's meat market, and to
judge from the illustration, the
market is first-class in all re-
spects. Mr.. Stettler left Corval-
lis about four years ago and went
into business in Weatherford.
He has many friends in Corvallis
who will be pleased to learn that
he has succeeded so we'll. The
following write-up is given:
G.. Stettler is one of the substantial
business men of Weatherford, respon-
sib!e for having made the city OF the i'm
portance it now is. Mr.. Stettler came
here from Oregon with the opening of
the town. He purchased property, en-
gagged in business and has constantly
been building it up until he now has one
of the most complete markets in Oklaho-
ma and enjoys trade that is second to
none.
MIR. Stettler recently moved his market
from the south part of the city to his own
building on Main street, which is fine
location for business. He has the inter-
ior we'll arranged, and carries a large
stock of all kinds of meats at all times.
Mr.. Stettler believes that cleanliness is
next to Gedliness and his market is al
ways kept clean and in order, which
makes it quite an inviting place with
the first class meats that are sold. !
Mr.. Stettler believes in the future of
Weatherford and has all of his interests
here. He is a member of the city coun-
Gil and faithful worker for the city's
interests.

Finds a Purchaser.

Owing to the long season of litigation
over the priority of the numerous liens
upon the Hotel Ceryallis building and
the lots upon which it stands, that fine
property has been standing idle for sew
eral years. To strangers and the unin-
formed it has been standing as monu-
ment to bad business investment, or as
evidence that Corvallis had receded from
an ill-timed effort to advance COM
mercially.
This is not true, and the hope is now
held that the Hotel Corvallis will soon
be earning something for its owner, and
incidentally for the city of Corvallis.
This was made possible when the su-
preme court decided who held the prior
liens, for it put the holders of these
judgments in position to dispose of the
property.
Some weeks ago Mr.. Swanson, Port
land speculator, entered into negotia-
tious for the purchase of the lots from the
holders OF these first liens, Philip Phile
and the Gerhard heirs. 1t is also under
stood that Mr.. Swanson has an option on
the first lies on the building held by F.
E. Beach. After due consideration Mr..
Swanson secured an option on the lots
and deposited $l1O to bind the bargain,
which is to be settled the Goth of this
month or this amount will be forfeited.
Should this deal be consummated, it
will be necessary to sell the property at
sherif7s sale, and the notice of FIVE weeks

Corrt Notes.

County court convened las
| Thursday, instead of Wednes-
day on account of the latter be-
| ing a holiday. At this session
there was considerable business
to be transacted and the duties
of the court were not completed
! IN season tor us to give all of the
details of its findings.
The regular grist OF bills was
allowed and they were not as
heavy as usual.
There were two hundred jur-
ors drawn at this session of court
to serve at the spring and fall
terms of circuit court for Benton
county. These are drawn from
the various taxpayers of the
county.
There are fifteen bal1eting
places in this county where the
voters will measure lanees on the
first Monday of next June at the
state and county election to be
held on that date. The court
was obliged to select forty-6ve
judges and thirty clerks to take
charge and oversee the voting in
the various precincts. |
A year ago the legislature
passed law stating that a road
master should be appointed for
Zach county, and the task of
such official fell upon
he county court. The law reads
hat for the year 1901 a road
master "may" be selected. Our
,ounty court did not see fit to
make the most of this possibility,
nd none was appointed for that /,
raction of the year that followed
he meeting OF the last 1egisla- j
ure. The law reads that at the
rst meeting of the county court
or the year 1902 said court =
Shall" appoint a roadmaster for {
1e county. 1t will be the road :
laster's duty to oversee the work
the various road supervisors Of
1e county. The matter of sal }
ry is left to the ceuaty court, I
ut it is provided that a suff- T
ent salary shall be paid the 6
'admaster to justify him in C
wing his entire ltime and atten- n
on to road matters. t.
