Sunshine of Prosperity.

In spite of somher prophecies the
foreign trade of the United States con-
tinues to grow, regular boom having
been experienced sinc. the first of the
year, which dissipates the doubts oeca-
stoned by last years falling OFF The
exports during February were far
greater than those of any previous
February in our national. history and
the imports were also unusually large.
As yet there is no cloud on the indus
trial horizon. The sun of prosperity
still shines.-Terre Haute Tribune

why NotS

Senator Nelson introduced an
amendment providing for the change
of flour from the general class, which
receives a 20 per cent concession from
the Cuban tariff. TO that class which is
to receive a 40 per cent concession
Well, why noty If the Northwestern
farmer is going to be prevented from
raising sugar beets because OF the pref
erential bounty voted to Cuban plant
ers. he might at least be compensated
to trifling extent by wider opening
through which -four may enter the Gu
ban market. 1t wouldn't make up for
the loss of profits on beet growing, 20
be sure, but it would be something.
As the treaty stands the American
farmer gets precious little out of it ex-
crpt black eye. All the prize pack
ages 90 to the Cuban farmer.

New York heads the list of strike af-
fected cities. There the work on the
great tunnel is seriously interfered with
by the Nalkout of rock workmen and ex-
cavatOrs to enforce their demands FOR
an eight-hour day and an increase in pay.
There were some distressing and I'M
usual features of the strikes. Thousands
of persons who eat at restaurants in
Omaha and Duluth were caued much
discomfort by the refusal of walters to
serve them. House! .Iders are being i'm
portuued TO make room a, their tables for
the transients and help in relieving the
famine. Wilkes barre. Pa. is unshaven
and unshorn BARRIERS refuse TO work
and those without home outfits and the
skill to use them must face warm spring
weather with full boards. In the case
of all the workers shorter hours is the
principal object sought.
The most numerous class of strikers is
that of the building trades. In Boston
about 10000 men, representing nine
trades. made demands for higher wages
and shorter hours and about $500 of
them secured what they asked without
striking. In Philadelphia the carpenters
are demanding 81 for an eight-hour day
and the hosting engineers S2i50 for a
week of forty-eight hours. At present
5000 men are idle. but if the strike con-
tinEes a week over 10000 will be thrown
out Of employment. Baltimore, Toronto,
Newark. Pittsburg Akron. Wilkesbarre,
Cincinnati. Omaha. Bloomington and
Springfield workmen demand an eight
hour day aud higher wages

The Right Spirit.

Corvallis has caught the spirit
of Improvement, and the new
city administration gives evil
dence of being heartily in accord
with the desire to clean up and
beautify the town. The morals
of the community have been
raised to plane where there is
little room for criticism, and the
effort that has been expended in
accomplishing this most import
tant result, is now to be directed
toward material Improvement.
The Corvallis Improvement So
ciety has done much to awaken
interest in this direction, and
with a city council determined to
enforce the ordinances and to sup
port the city officers in their
efforts to induce property owners
TO repair sidewalks and remove
rubbish, Corvallis will soon be-
come more inviting. IN the last
few weeks many sidewalks have
been repaired and new walks
have been built. Chief Lane has
shown commendable zeal in hav-
ing the business portion of Main
street scraped and the accummu-
lated trash hauled away. Citi-
zens should hasten to make their
homes more slightly by moving
the grass about their premises,
planting flowers and shrubbery,
and keeping houses and fences in
repair.

Watch Was Stolen.

The owner of the watch, adver.
tised as lost in Fridays GAZETTE,
has come to claim his property.
A little story is connected with the
disappearance of the time.piece
which reflects upon the integrity of
some one who posed as a friend of
the owner, R. V. Williamson. With
a number of other students of the
college, Mr.. Williamson boarded at
a private residence in this city. A
chum had borrowed the watch, and
returned it in the presence of a
number of students at their board
ing place. It was just at the sup
per hou;, and Mr.. Williamson laid
the watch on a stand and the par
ty passed into the dining room.
When they returned the watch was
gone. and nothing more was seen of
it until the little son of Rev Car
rick found it under the o. R. & N.
dock. ,s-
The owners initials, R. V. W.,
were scratched On the back of the
watch and his given name Vernon,
appeared on the inner case. It is
believed that the purloiner, finding
the watch was so marked as to de-
tect him, concealed it under the
wharf. When it was learned that
the watch was the property of Mr..
Williamson he was notified by
phone at his home at Wells, of its
recovery. 1t is hoped that the stu
dent under suspicion viii be able to
clear himself of the charge of which
he is now deemed guilty.

Attorney w. E. Yates returned
from a business trip to Newport,
yesterday. He states that the exc.
dus to the coast is already on, and
cottages are being filled rapidly
with summer visitors to Oregon's
most popular seaside resort.
Corvallis has passed an ordinance
providing for fine of SIS to $50 or
imprisonment for the failure to re.
pair a sidewalk after he1ng ordered
to do SO by the proper authorities.
The spirit of the law is all right.
This way of ordering thing done

annual program. From the very
small beginning in the way of a
session held in 1894, the Chautau-
qua has grown until it covers a pc
riod of thirteen days and draws
talent for its platform from all parts
of the country. From an examin-
alton of the present program, it
would seem from the rich array of
talent there scheduled to appear,
that the 1903 session bids fair to
eclipse any of its predecessors.
Notwithstanding the length of the
Chautauqua for this year, hardly a
day passes without the appearance
of some star attraction.
A letter received this woek from
Ivan Daniel, by his mother. dated
at Topeka, Kansas, states that the
writer was in that city durir g the
flood which caused euch loss of life
and property. Ivan was with the
Weidemann Company, and their
car was on the track atove the
food line. and all members escaped
injury. They all assisted in the
rescue of unfortunates who were
battling with the waters. The
current would not permit Of using
oars and Ivan and the party he was
with drew their boat from place to
place by holding on to trees and
debris. They rescued a mum Der,
but others could not be reached and
died from exposure The Wiede
mann Company will be in the VIII

Fake Insurance Company.

Secretary of State Dunbar, as
state insurance commissioner, has
addressed to the press OF the state
and the various agents of regular
ly licensed insurance companies
a circular letter calling their at
tention to the operation within
this state of the Union Fire In
surance Company" of Chicago in
violation Of the statutes of the
state. The cooperation of those
receiving the letter is asked that
illegal operation of this company
in competition with reliable and
licensed companies may be cur
tailed. The following excerpt is
taken from Secretary Dupbar's
letter: "The requirements of
the laws of this state are not so
onerous or so expensive as to de-
ter any solvent, honest company
from complying. When a com
pany undertakes to do business in
this state surreptitiously, in vio-
ton of law and without submit
ting to its obligations, it is a JUS
just1hable conclusion that it is
either too dishonest to willingly
submit to its requirements, or is
in an insolvent financial coudi-
ton. In the event of loss or the
refusal of such company to pay
the holder of a policy, he would
be compelled to go to the state
where it is located to bring suit
and collect judgment. If also,
for any reason. he should desire
to cancel his policy in an un-
authorized company, he would
have no means of compelling the
return of unearned premiums.
In short, he is unprotected by
the laws of this state. In the
case of a licensed company, a
policy holder has the security of
the deposit made by them and
can secure service in case of suit,
upon the resident general agent
of the company"

The board of directors would
like to be authorized to ISSUE
bonds in the sum of So, 900 TO be
applied at their discretion in bet
terments and redeeming present
bonds. 1t would seem that pa
irons have no choice but to vote
for the bonds. Funds are abse-
lutelv necessary. 1t is strange.
however, that SO little interest is
taken by the public in school
matters, that are of such impor-
tance. At the election, June
18th, only 36 votes were cast in
this district. Some offered as an
excuse that the papers of the city
had not called their attention to
the matter. This is untenable,
for both of the city papers have
devoted considerable space to dis
cussion of the election, and of
the various suggestions that have
been offered concersing provision
for additional school room, dur
ing the past several weeks. Let
all who are entitled to a vote,
take part in next Mondays cleo
ton and show that they have a
live interest in matters touching
our public school.
It is understood that the resi-
dents of Jobs Addition are quite

small school building in that

Actual Residence Required.

The Interior Department recent.
| ly rendered a decision that will
interest homesteaders. In the
past the Department has been
liberal in constituting what con-
stitutes a residence upon a home
stead sufficient to enable the
claimant to make proof and Sc
cure title, but stricter rulings are
being enforced. To successfully
hold a claim a man must make
continuous residence. The de-
cision also practically means that
a newcomer can successfully con-
test any of the thousands Of
homesteads being held by men
not actually residing on them,
but who are making a pretense
of compliance with the letter of
the law.
At present the government is
keeping a rigid watch over the
homesteads of Oregon and Wash
ington. Every proof that is SUBJ
mitted will be carefully scrutiniz-
ed, and lack of residence is liable
to deprive many of their right to
obtain title. It is indeed ques-
tionable it those who have estab-
lished only constructive residence
upon homesteads-that is those
who live in town 900 days in the
year and FIVE on the homesteads
will be permitted to perfect title.
