SUPERVISORS ACTIVE.
Preparing, for Spring Road Work
They are to Meet County Court.

There is considerable activity
among the road supervisors Of the
county with reference to the coming
campaign on the county highways.
Most Of them are laying plans for
beginning operations just as soon
as the spring work on farms is fin
ished. They are to have all road
polls in cash, and this fund is now
col1ectible. They are in addition
to have all of the two per cent levy
collected in the district Of each.
With respect to this the county.
court has arranged to supply from
the general fund such Of the two
per cent road fund as is not co1lec-
ted. SO that the whole of the latter
shall be available for the spring
work: This. will give each super
visor good supply Of cash with
which to begin operations, and each
counts on making a good showing.
All the supervisors are to meet
with the county court at the regular
session week after next. The
purpose of the meeting will be to
arrange for uniformity of method
for getting the utmost out of the
seasons road improvement.

The Poetry of the Orange

1t appeals to you, when the fruit hangs
ripe and sweet on the trees in February
or early in March. Then the blossoms
break out and the trees are yellow with
golden globes. and white with orange
flowers. It may be that furry of snow
has whitened the mountain tops, and
then you have an artistic back ground
for tropical forest. The air is full OF
sunshine, and heavy with fragrance a
the night comes on, and the. if the
moon be shining, you may hear at mid
night through open windows the song
of the mocking bird in the scented
grove, and it never seemed so lne1odous
before.
An experience like this is possible ev-

STILL CRUSHING COMPETITORS.

10. -Hf - .. = :
With the Rockefe11ers buying a
volcano and its immense sulphur
deposits, to which they propose to
build a cog-wheel railroad, there
is reason for the devil to be uneasy.
With an active volcano and its hell
fire and birthstone for an asset, it
is likely that, as they have so often
done with other competitors, the
Rockefellers will drive his satanic
majesty out of business. If there
is comfort in the thought for poor
sinners, it must be dispelled. for ii
is to be remembered that it is the
Rockefellers that will be in charge
of the new establishment. OF
course there will be the novelty of
journeying there in a Pullman on
the cog-whee1 railroad, but most of
the damned would rather take
chances on the orthodox concern
and its shortcut route.

FOURTEEN vEToEs.
Chamberlain Kills Many Bills, an APP
preparation Bill Among Them. q

3 10
In addition to- the veto of the
Newport Summer School bill, the
Pure Food bill, the Bureau of Mines
bill, the land graft bill and several
others, Governor Chamberlain,
Thursday, killed with hissveto one
of the three general appropriation
bills. which carried appropriations
to-the amount of over $63, 900, of
which $14, 500 was for the pur-
chase of an executive mansion. In
all, the governor has vetoed four
teen bills passed by the legislature.
It is declared by those familiar with
legislation in Oregon that he has
surpassed all his predecessors in
that regard. f
The Bureau of Mining bill car
ried an appropriation of $780, 900,
but when it was under discussion
in the house there were members
who declared on the floor that its
passage would ultimately, cost the
state at least $50. 900. His veto
of one of the three general appro-
priation bills was based largely on
constitutional grounds.
On all sides the action of the gov
ernor meets with emphatic COM
mendation.

HIS DEATH.
And Burial-Robert B. Blodgett OF
Benton-Pneumonia the
Cause.

After an illness of ten days,
Robert Blodgett, died at his home
in Blodgett Valley, Tuesday ev-
ening. His ma1ady was pneumon-
ia, resulting from a severe, cold
contracted couple of weeks ago.
The funeral occurred from the fam
lily home Thursday afternoon, and
was attended by a large number Of
old neighbors and friends. The in
terment was in the family burying
ground on the farm, where lie the
remains of the father and ether
relatives of the deceased. 9
Robert Blodgett was all his life
a resident of Blodgett Valley, hav-
ing been born AZ years ago on the
homestead that was also the scene
of his death. His father was Rob
ert B. Blodgett, a graduate of Yale
College, and twenty years ago a
familiar figure in Corvallis. The
elder Mr.. B1odgett was the original
settler of Blodgett Valley, and it
was from him that the well known
community to the west, takes its
name.
The death Of the younger Rob.
ert Blodgett was totally unexpected
until within a few hours of the end.
The survivors are, the widow and
eleven children.

THEIR .HUGEJOKE

The most Interesting thing that
happened at Salem was the adop-
ton of a resolution in the interest of
the election of senator by direct ctvote.
1t is interesting, because most of
the men who voted for it with a
grand flourish, deliberately ignored
opportunity to elect senator in
Oregon by direct vote and thereby
opened the way for their resolution
to be regarded as humbug and
themselves as insincere.
The Mays law offers the people of
Oregon all they need for election of
senator by direct vote. It binds
the legislature just as strongly to
vote for the party nominee for SEN
ator as the presidential elector is
bound to vote for the party nominee
for president. In principle, the
two plans are exactly Identical.
There is not a shadow of difference
between them. In the late presi-
dental election a republican elector,
SO far as the law is concerned
could, had he so desired, have voted
for the democratic or any other
nominee. Is t t
Asst stands, in Oregon, there is
no need for congress to provide for
election of senator by direct vote;
All that is necessary is for those
legislators whoihowl about election
of senator by direct vote to act in
good faith with the people and. OBJ
serve the law now on the book.
Let them, as did the democrats,
nominate man for senator in State
Convention, vote : for him at the
pol1s4and vote for him again in the
legislature and there will be no possi7
bility of deadlocks or occasion for
resolutions. E s,d @ 3

from sixty to seventy men will go

Each event will have five! or. six
candidates and some of them will
have as high as a dozen or fifteen.
Those. who attended, declare that
there is more material than has ev-
er appeared on similar occasions at
the college. The fact that w. O.
Trine is to be director of operations
has served to give men confidence
such as they have never manifested
before, and there is no doubt that
the college will have fine repre-
sentation in such meets as occur
during the. coming season.
A complete schedule of meets
has not yet been arranged by Man

with which meets will take place,

Corvallis Improvement Society.

The regular monthly meeting of
the Corvallis Improvement Society
was held last evening at the Coun-
ty court room at o'clock.
!. During the month of January
good deal of work was done with
the limited means at the disposal
of the managers. Some $33.4o
was collected and spent in various
locations and several dollars of ad-
vanced work done. The drainage
of the west half of the public
school block was completed which
removes a very unsightly condition
as well as improving the sanitary
situation of the block. Slowly but
surely is the work of beautifying
the c. & E. grounds progressing.
The society is very grateful tothe
many citizens who have been so
ready to assist in these beginnings.
Attend the meetings if you can
spare the time.

WHY IT WAS KILLED

Why the late house at Salem re-
fused to enact the law taxing corpo'
rations is inconceivable. Similar
laws are'in full force in other states,
and Weld handsome revenues. The
principle of uniformity in taxation
is fundamental in the science of gov
ernment. TT is violation of the
principle that makes taxation fall
so heavily upon real property.
Large volumes OF proht-earning in
vestments are doing business in
Oregon upon which the hand OF
taxation is scarcely laid at all,
while industries and lands groan
under the burden.
Speaker Harris introduced in the
house at Salem a bill that proposed
to exact a just share of taxes from
the big corporations. Like meas
use of similar character that was
introduced in the legislature two
years ago, it was promptly voted
down. The information is that a
hired lobby of attorneys and others
swarmed into the state house and
juggled the representatives out of
their senses and the people out of
their rights. The result was ac-
complished in spite of Speaker
Harris significant warning that
none of those who voted against the
measure two years ago had been
returned. y
The law was well worthy OF en-
actment, and that is why it was
killed. - r

osBURN WON.
A Decision byJudge Hamilton Title to
Corvallis Home Retained.

A decision that involves the
title to the John M. Osburn home
in Corvallis, was handed down
Wednesday by Judge Fullerton.
The suit was one of several that
followed the Osburn bankruptcy.
William Groves, Nettie Spencer,
and others we're creditors of Mr.. Os-
burn before passage in 1893 of the
Homestead Exemption law. When
the bankruptcy came, the residence
property was set aside for the bene-
fit of the owner. The creditors re-
ferred to, brought suit in the state
courts to have the property sold for
the benefit of their claims. The
case was heard at the November
term of the circuit court, and was
taken under advisement The de-
cision of Judge Hamilton is that
Mr.. .Osburu retains the title to the
Corvallis home and that it is not
subject to the. execution of the
creditors who were plaintiffs in the
proceeding.
The contention of the plaintiffs
was that the property was subject
to execution in the state courts.
The defendants interposed that the
state courts had no jurisdiction,
the bankruptcy being in the .feder-
al courts, in which the estate had
been settled and the bankrupt dis.
charged. The attorneys for the
defense were Yates & Yates.

Last Night.

An entertainment which broke the
record for the number in attendance
and will be long remembered for the
enjoyment it gave was the one held
by Pearl River Lodge, W. o. W.. at
their hall last night.
The occasion was an oyster supper
and the MEMBERS to whom was en-
trusted the work of ordering the oys-
ters saw to it that they werst he finest
that could be procured and in guam
tity that fortified against any posi-
bility of not having enough.
Those who attended. and shere were
many, say that it was one of those
good, old-fashioned occasions such as
we hear of but seldom ever have the
good fortune of participating in.
1t takes the Woodmen to have such
social gatherings as the one OF last
night.
