voluntarily released its rights to
the school it would have been a
very difficult matter for the state
to have again assumed control.
These matters are familiar to
all old residents of the county,

readers of the GAZETTE who
have arrived since those scenes
transpired it is thought well to
repeat them.

It is learned from different parts
of the county that the recent rains
are useful in starting grass to grow
and prepare the grounds for the en-
suing years crop. The continued
dry weather for the last several
months have made holders of stock
somewhat undecided as to future
conditions, but these fine rains
starting the much needed grass at
this opportune time will have a
tendency to encourage the stock
raisers and farmers and improve
the price Of stock.
We have one of the finest assort-
ments of millinery goods, such as
ladies trimmed and untrimmed

We invite the ladies to cal and see

A Public Spirited Man.

The Rev. ]. R. N. Bell, who
residedi in Corvallis about eighteen
years ago, was in attendance
upon the Synod of the Presby-
terian church which held its ses-
sion here last week. Mr.. Bell
is favorably known by the older
residents of Corvallis.
When Mr.. Bell resided here
last he was the pastor of the
Methodist church South, and was
one of the board of regents OF
the State Agricultural College
when it was under the protecting
care of the church. Mr.. Bell,
with his usual foresight, at that
time observed that the school
was not progressing as it should
as a state agricultural college.
It was evident to his mind, as it
also was to others, that the state
institution under the charge of
the church retarded the progress
of the school instead of building
up and advancing its growth as it
would advance if placed strictly
under the government by the
state. Prof, Joseph Emery who
was also a minister of the Metho-
dist church South, and who had
held professorship in the col.
lege nearly from the beginning
of the school, also held the same
view; and they with others used
their best efforts to effect a dis
solution of the school from
the control of the church and to
turn it over strictly to state man
agement. This proposition met
with opposition from other men,
bers of the church, but the wise
counsels of the Revs. Bell and
Emery prevailed and the confer
ence Of the church voted so as to
permit the board OF regents of the
school to consider and vote upon
the question of turning the col
lege over to the state. The
board of. regents, it will be un-
derstood, was appointed by the
conference, but at a meeting
held some. time after the confer
ence appointing them had ad-
journed, voted upon the PROPOSE
ton which resulted in favor of
state control.
The movement was so unpopu-
Lar with a portion of the MEM
beri of the church that it was no
longer pleasant for Mr.. Bell to re-
main as one of their ministers,
and he severed his connection
with that church and took up his
labors with the Presbyterians.
Mr., Bell is one of the most able
and eloquent ministers of the
state; a man universally respect
ed and esteemed by all who have
had the pleasure of his acquaint-
auce. He has been eleven years
successfully IN the service OF his
congregation at Baker City.
The people of the state owe to
Mr.. Bell more than to any other
man the possibilities which again
enabled the state to reclaim its
control of the college, and by
which the state since that time
las been able to build up such a
institution of learn
ng as the school is likely to as
