ho Need ofOur Time is Vision
OF God.
Rev. w 9 VIM of Tabernacle
ii led the pulpit Of tie -ic hudist
church ut this place last Sunday
morning in the absence of the pas
tor, who is visiting relatives at
kingstree. He preached an able
sermon, taking for his subject
lsaiah's vision as recorded in the
first eight verses of the sixth chap
ter of Isaiah. He showed a par
allel of conditions, material, NOR
al and spiritual in the national his.
tory of Israel In the year Uzzlah
died with those which prevail to-
day In our State and country. In
the death of Uzziah hero-worship
was at an end. As Isaiah stood
between the Lord sitting on HIS
throne, high and lifted up, and
Ieprous Uzziah, the hero of his
youthful worship, he passed
through new experience. The
line was sharply drawn. On the
one side the Lord Jehovah
sitting all in all, on the other, the
futility of human honors and am.
bitions. AS he looked into heaven
1t dawned upon him that he was a
man of unclean lips and dwelt in
the midst of people of unclean
lips, and he made his choice for
God and hencforth his life was for
God. In the application of his
text to the needs of today, Mr..
Winn said : God is calling for
men and women today to stand in
their places in the various walks
or llfe-in society, in business, in
professional life, in politics-with
clean lips and clean lives, refus.
ing to compromise with unright-
eouaness. Public sentiment needs
to be changed on many questions
lake for example the acquittal of
eX Gov. Tillman. Few people ex
pecied his conviction. WHY?
Because in South Carolina public
sentiment has made murder about
the safest crime man eau com
mt Judge and lawyers come ia
Tor severe criticism in the miscar-
rlaee OF Justice, but the RESPONSE
blilty rests with the men on the
Jury, representatives. Of this pub
lie sentiment.
How is this to be changed Not
by mass meetings, which amount
TO nothing, but by every man
feeling, as did Isaiah, feeling his
personal responsibility TO God
and his country, standing in his
place as man and throwing the
whole weight of his influence on
the side of righteousness. The
need of our time is visio of
God.

WIPED THEM OUT.
Bean Pole Road Districts Added to
Corvallis Number ODe-Other
Precinct Changes. =

A folly of past years with refer
ence to road districts in Benton
county has been the maintenance
of what were known as the Bean
Pole districts They are in number
two, and though they were in width
only about 1000 feet, they were six
miles in length. They were Cor
wallis election precincts numbers I
and 2. Each comprised three tiers
of blocks running east and west
through Corvallis together with ad-
joining narrow strips of territory
that extended from the city limits
to the boundaries of Wren election
precinct. For each of the narrow
arms that extended FIVE or six miles
into the country there was a road
supervisor, but only a paltry sum
of money for the roads. A conse-
quence was qualification of all
efforts in maintaining roads.
But the Bean Pole districts are
no more At this weeks meeting
the county court blotted the long
strips of territory from ,theaa map.
Both are attached to number OF
Corvallis election precincts. Two
and three are now confined within
the city limits of Corvallis, their
former north, south and east boun-
daries being unchanged,
At the same session of court the
territory comprising the Benton
county saw mill and vicinity was
taken from Afsea precinct and add
ed to the Philomath precinct. The
same territory was taken from Phi
1omath and added to Alsea a couple
of years ago.

MOVE IN MONDAY.
Pupils Will Occupy the new School
Building-Twe new Teachers to Be-
gin Work.

The primary grades of the public
school are to move into the new
building next Monday. The event
is awaited with eager anticipation
by the little ones as well as by
the overworked. teachers. In Miss
Kerns room there are So little chaps
and to take care of them properly
is beyond the power OF any teacher.
A similar congestion prevails in
other rooms. L
The removal Monday will make
two rooms available in the old
building, and these will be occu-
pied by two new teachers, who will
be given the overflow from the
other rooms. The new teachers
are Miss Kyle and Miss Evans. The
former is an OAC graduate with
teaching experience, and the latter
arrived sometime ago from Neb-
raska.
The teachers who will occupy
the new building are Miss Kerns
and Miss Fullerton. The rooms
are in the south end of the new
building, and are commodious and
comfortable, The additions will
increase the number of teachers in
the school to eleven.

WEIGHED-AND NOT WANTING.

1t will be wise, in case of a spec
ia1 legislative session, if the new
tax law shall be repealed, and the
one that it replaced be re. enacted.
The first experience with the new
law is an expensive and irritating
bungle. With the act still untried,
there is possibility of other mis-
chievous and costly errors or pro-
visions. The old law was SO per-
feet in its operations that it reduced
delinquent tax lists far below any
thing of the kind yet known in the
state. There was no call for a
change, and the wonder is that one
was attempted. The present al
formative of a costly extra legis1a-
tive session, or a year without rev.
enue for public affairs is the bitter
fruit of not letting well enough
alone. If there is an extra session,
a speedy re-enactment of the Sweek
law and an equally speedy adjourn
ment will be an easy, sureand safe
way out of the mire into which the
late bungling has brought the peo-
pie of the state.

A LEGISLATIVE LEGACY,

The circumstances would seem to
fully warrant Governor Chamber
Jain in conveniDg the Legislature IN
extraordinary session. An error
ofthe last legislature makes it i'm
possible to levy and collect taxes
next spring. The assessments have
been made in all the counties, the
rolls costing great sum are all
practically ready for tax collecting,
but there is no power by which
levy can be made. With the usual
revenues thus cut off. there must
follow stagnation in the finances OF
state county and municipal gov
,ernments. The issue of a
flood of interest-bearing war
rants must result, and in many
instances institutions, petty gov
ernments and public affairsbe plum
ged into hopeless tangle of debt.
Improvements. for roads and pub
lie necessities of kindred character
must largely be brought to a stand
still by reason of the fact that coun'
ty boards having no income will
hesitate to go deeply into debt for
such things. In hundred ways
there will be embarrassment stag
nation and stringency in public
matters. The issue of warrants.
state, city, county or municipal,
will partly meet the emergency,
but interest will have to be paid on
them. and the aggregate of this in
terest will pay the cost of,an extra
session. many fold. This consid
Grafton alone, is warrant for
Governor Chamberlain to call an
extra session.

Funeral Probably on Sunday.
William Groves, an old and high
ly< respected resident of corvallis,
sfter an illness of but a week, died
at his home in this city yesterday
afternoon. He breathed his last at
/ 20 o'clock from the effects of a
paralytic stroke sustaines last Sat-
urday. The funeral will probably
occur Sunday, though definite ar
rangements will not be made until
the arrival of Frank Groves, who
left Seattle yesterday afternoon,
and waeEex pected here some time
during last night.
Ever since Mr.. Groves was stri-
cken, a week ago, the symptoms in
the case have grown more and more
alarming. At first only the left leg
and arm were affected, but within
day or two the paralysis began to
involve the right arm and leg. u
timately also, the organs of speech
as well as other parts OF the throat
became affected. On a few ocea-
sions he was able to speak. saying
at one time with reference to a
capsule that was offered him to
swallow. that he wished DR.. Farra
would take it himself. Thursday,
however, the throat was so invol-
we'd that the. swallowing of medi-
cine became practically impossible.
His pulse during that afternoon
became very weak, being at times
almost inperceptible. Alarm SO in
creased that relatives were telegra-
phed for. A telegram reached
Miss Edna Groves, a daughter at
Hood River. It SO happened that
the Oregon Flyer on the o R & n
railroad was a little behind time.
She managed to catch it, made
quick connection with the Califor-
MIA Overland on the Southern Paci-
fic at Portland and reached the bed
side at one o'clock the following
morning, but eight hours after the
telegram reached her, Telegrams
were also sent to Frank Groves, a
son at the Bremerton Navy yard on
Puget Sound was expected lastnight
and to Mrs Kittredge. daughter
at Weston, who is expected to ar
rive today. Yesterday morning
the symptoms were so bad that Dr.
Farra gave out that the worst might
be expected at any time.

Charter Commissioners Meeting

VubUu VI OUStuNuBSSbVBBVI NbCVSSU9
President Rider of the charter
commission will most likely soon
call a meeting OF that body. This is
due to the notificat ton of the: secre-
tary Of the commission by the city
council, that there is need OF an
amendment that will allow of local
improvements, by which property
owners can have three or more years
in which to pay for them.
AS for instance in the proposed
paving OF streets. it would be much
easier on property owners if the time
to pay was extended through p term
of years, instead of having to pay
the full assessment in one year.
