REFUSED ASSISTANCE.
Capt. of Schooner left Crew of 'sHat-
tie S, CoIIins'' to their Fate,

Capt. of Schooner left Crew of SHAT
tie S. Collins to their Fate.
Through the refusal of the captain of
a coasting vessel to take them aboard,
the crew of the schooner "Hattie s. Col
Inns" were exposed sixteen hours to the
rough weather last week.
The "Hattie 8. Collins" loaded stone at
Deer Isle for New York. When on a
southeast course from Seguin, she sprang
aIeak, filled and sank. The crew had a
narrow escape, and saved nothing.
They took to the small boats, and
shortly after hailed small coasting ves-
sci and asked to be taken aboard. The
captain either through unkindness or
brutality refused, and the men spent six
teen hours in an open boat, without food
or water before landing on Monhegan
island.
Here they were kindly cared for by the
inhabitants and taken to Port Clyde by
he Burnt Island life-saving crew.
The vessel had been recently repaired,
and will be total loss.

frequented by pedestrians, converge, and
the human tide surges up and down dur

ancient structure; some turn their steps

also several other government bureaus in

In olden times New Years used to be
very hospitable season around the Capital
city. But Washington has become so
large and SO much like modern city that
much of the prodigsl hospitality OF the
olden times has ceased.
The habit OF promiscuous calls at resi-
dences is no longer conntenanced, but
friends make 1t the occasion of renewing
associations aud, oft times, OF enjoying a
giass OF egg nog. The oid.time South
erners know how to brew 1t better than
others, as rule.
As far as possible the season Is made
happy one for the poor, tho are very nu-
merous here. There are several big din.
ners for poor children, and gifts OF USE
fol character for the needy. AS the
weather here in the summer is very warm,
the cold OF winter makes suffering even
more intense among the poor, and there
fore Christmas has come to be a season
here OF much charity.
Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1903-12-23

Washington enjoys many OF the hospit-
able holiday customs OF the Southland.
Those congressman who do not find it
easy to get away from here, or who are
able to be more comfortable here than
elsewhere, do not grieve. The Christmas
season is always one OF special cheer here,
and people of the official world have
more opportunity to observe 1t than pre-
wallis in commercial communities
On Christmas day tue doors OF the
many departments here are closed; no
one works that day; as rule no one
works much the previous day. The same
may be said OF New Years aud of the
day before New Years.

Mrs. Powers Won.

The case of Hattie L. Powers
VS.. Guy M. Powers, one of the
most noted divorce cases ever be-
gun in Marion county, has been
decided by Judge Boise in favor
of the plaintiff.
The defendant, having decided
all of his property, valued at
about 81, 500, withdrew his cross
complaint and gave no testimony
in his own behalf. His attor-
neys argued that there was not
enough evidence adduced to en-
title plaintiff to a decree. The
court decided, however, that the
charge of desertion had not been
made out, but that there was
enough in letters written by the
defendant to his wife to grant
decree on the grounds of person,
al indignities rendering her life
burdensome. Both parties seen
we'll pleased with the decision o.
the court.
The parties are quite wei
known in Corvallis.

Will Factory Remove?

R. M. Cramer has made a
proposition to the Commercial
Club of Eugene to remove the
carriage factory from Corvallis
to that city.
The Register has this to say of
the proposition:
Briefly stated it is to organize
a company with $4,000 capital,
Eugene parties to take $4,000
of the stock. The plant to be
put in will have a capacity of
500 vehicles a year and will em-
ploy when running to full capa-
city about 40 men. The propo-
sition was thoroughly discussed
by club members and there was a
general disposition in favor of
the enterprise provided figures
could be obtained to warrant the
business a paying one. After
due deliberatiou committee of
three consisting of F. M. Will
kins, E. c. Smith and w, G..

Gilstrap were appointed to fully
investigate the matter, examine
the plant and report at call meet
ing of the club.
Mr.. Cramer is anxious to bring
the plant to Eugene and is assur-
ed that parties outside of our city
are ready to take stock provided
the factory is moved !,ere.
The committee appointed VII
make complete examination of
the plant and ali the details OF
the business and report at earliest
convenience to the club.
Ifit can be proven that the in
stition is a paying one there will
be little or no trouble to secure
enough stock to bring it to Eu-
gene.
The organ factory in connac'
ten will be an after considera
ton.

Oranges Favor Appropriation.

A. F. Miller, state deputy OF thu
Grange, who has been visiting Oranges
for several weeks in the interest of the
fire insurance feature Of the order, has
lust returned from his recent trip up the
Willamette Valley, says the Oregonian.
Incidentally Mr.. Miller talked with lead
ing members of the Oranges wherever he
has gone, and he said yesterday in
speaking of his trip that they want the
legislature to pass the 100000 Lewis
and Clark Fair appropriation without
riders. A good many think there should
be taxation bill passed giving the farm
er fairer deal, but the majority want
the bill passed independent of the Fair
appropriation.
"My business took me to number OF
Oranges" says Mr. Miller, "and among
the men T met was Major James Bruce
who was our commissioner at the CEN
tennial fair. He is O member OF Bell
fountain Grange, IS owner OF farms and
a man of influence He said to me that
he wants to see the appropriation passed.
Major Bruce thinks that the tair will
bring a very desirable class of people to
Oregon, who will engage in farming.
Those who have large holdings of land
will be able 10 devide it up and sell it off.
John Whitaker. member OF Willamette
Grange, near Corvallis, made the strong
est kind OF a speech in favor of this ap-
preparation at grange meeting. He
says that it should pass without riders
of any sort. w. M. Hilleary, of Turner
Grange, state manager for four years, is
very pronounced in favor of straight
appropriation. He thinks that as it will
be paid in two years the taxpayers will
hardly notice the extra burden"

THE CORVALLIS GAZETTE.
TUESDAY, JAN. 6, 1905.
THEIR PURPOSE.

Democratic party leaders are
yet casting about for an Issue up
on which they may hope to be
successful in 1904. They clear
ly see that the control of trusts,
which they earnestly hoped
might be au issue, is now i'm
possible because of the unmls-
taxable purpose of the Iepubli-
can party to deal with these in
telligently and satisfactorily. AT
present they declare that the tar
if will be the issue. They do
not say tariff revision, for they
we'll understand that the republl-
cans will revise the tariff sched-
ules wherever such revision is
necessary.
The onlv way they may make
an issue of the tariff is by di-
rect front assault on protection.
1t is quite apparent that no other
issue remains TO them, 1t is
equally SO that they do not hope
to win a victory on that issue.
The leaders are astute politicians.
They know that the doctrine OF
protection by tariffs was never
before so firmly rooted in the
purpose of the American people.
1t has gained such a foothold in
the new South because of her in
dustrial development that, even
with her distrust of things bear
ing the stamp of the republican
party, she will not remain solid
for the democracy under the ban
ner of free trade. But without
the solid south the democratic
party may not hope to gain the
victory.
Protection has always brought
us prosperity. The country was
never before so prosperous as it
now is, and this condition was
never before so generously as
cribed to the operation of protec-
ton. Herein are conditions which
a successful assault on protection
must meet and overcome. 1t
were a hopeless undertaking to
induce prosperous aud intell1-
gent people to destroy thas to
which they so generously and
rightly attribute their prosperity.
Assuredly the democratic leaders
know this and do not expect to
gain victory by attacking pro-
lection.
What then is their purpose!
i. There can be little doubt that il
is to purge the party of Bryan,
ism and populistic heresies, and
to bring it back without appear
ing to reorganize it, to its histo
ric land marks. If this can be
accomplished, even through GER
tain defeat in 1904, it might be
led to victory in 1908.
The party must give yet
stronger evidence that it has alb
solved itself from every tinge ot
the 16 to heresy, and, at the
same time, Bryan and his follow
ing must be held in the democrat
ic column.
This will require all the fnesse
of the most skillful leaders OF the
party, but it is the only way they
may effect a rehabilition OF II
without incuring the risk of dis
ruption.
Whatever may be the demo
cratic purpose, protectionists have
nothing to fear from any party
marshalled under the flag of free
trade. No party, under existing
conditions, can carry the coun
try on free trade issue.
