Dover, Jan. pa little bit OF spice
was injected into the senatorial strug-
gle yesterday, when, ON joint ballot.
Messrs. Tyre and Sterling voted for
Harry Richardson, OF Dover, for United
States senator. All sorts Of rrumors were
Immediately started. but the knowing
ones smiled tolerably, and explained
that Il was all right
1t Is known that one OF these men will
under no circumstances vote for Ad-
dicks, and there is every reason for the
belief that the other occupies the same
position. The vote for Mr.. Richardson
seems to have been devoid of signin-
cance, save as It was compliment to
a valued citizen of Kent.
It is being remarked that the Regu-
lar Republicans are apparently con-
tent with waiting policy. They know
that they have Addiclrs beat,
en-. and apparently they are
content TO rest at that II Is the source
of comment that the leaders OF the
party are conspicuous for their alb
lsence, and, unlike the Democrats. they
have no steering committee, NO one to
look TO for advice. Possibly this is oc-
casloned by the fact that their repre-
sentatives I'M the Legislature are men
OF character, but 1t is whispered that
this inattention Is likely to lead to a
division when concerted action is de-
sirable.
The Democrats stood together for Dr.
John J.. Black for long term senator.
and former Attorney-General John
BiEgs for short term senator at the
joint ballot today. Representative Rose

Governor HUM submitted the cor

during the recess of the General AS
sembly since 1901, and not yet acted
upon by the Senate. This is the list the
Governor withdrew a fortnight ago af-
ter the Senate had suspended action,
and It was said then that the Cover
nor and the Senate We're at loggerheads
His return of the important document
Of State today shows that he simply
wanted the list for proper revision.
The Senate probably will consider the
appointments in executive session this
afternoon.

may cause hardships and public
wrongs. We cannot adjourn in all

too early. If they don't hurry business
before us during the early part of the
session. we are not TO blame"
Senator Wright argued with the Re-
publicans that the experience of the
Legislatures under the new Constitu-
tion was that business was withheld
until toward the close Of the session.

Will be a Bidder.

= c. c. Hogue, formerly of Cor.
wallis, but nova prominent busi-
ness man of Albany, has been in
this city for two or three days in
vestigating the councils proposal
for a new water system. Mr..
Hogue represents private parties
who have abundant capital to
furnish Corvallis with as elabor-
ate and extensive a system of
water works as may be desired.
The franchise prepared by the
council and submitted to bidders,
he considers very good in the
main, but he says a number of
amendments are necessary before
it will be acceptable to parties
bidding in good faith. Some of
the provisions are loosely drawn,
and requirements are made in
some instances which are unnec-
essary and inpracticable. Mr..
Hogue has been in consultation
with the city fathers, and he be-
lieves these incougruities can be
corrected.

Set For April goth.

The Maccabee band boys are
practicing diligently for their en-
tertainment which will be given
at the Opera House April 2oth.
The band was organized in the
latter part of January, and has
an Instrumentation of 20 pieces.
Rapid progress has been made
under the efficient direction of
Mr.. w. 7. Nichols, and those
who have had the privilege of
hearing the band practice, ex-
press themselves as surprised at
its proficiency. Rehearsals occur
regularly every Monday and
Thursday evening at the band
hall in Fishers brick.
Corvallis is badly in need of a
band and every encouragement
should be given this organiza-
ton. Each member of the band
owns his instrument, but it costs
something to employ all instruct
or, and defray necessary current
expenses. Therefore the basket
social and musical entertainment
which will be given on the even
ing of the 2oth of April, should
be literally attended. Adlnis-
sion will be free, and the pro-
ceeds will be derived from the
sale of baskets, which the ladies
are requested to bring. AS the
boys have many admirers among
the fair sex, there is no doubt
that baskets will be in abund-
ance.

are rolled on skids TO a platform

been specially constructed tore

clalnped in place they appear as
easy to turn as table leg.
There seems to be no strain on

When the surface of the logs is
smooth and even, tie shives
are fashioned and separated.
About two weeks viii be required
