MONDAY EVENING.
Quiet Wedding at a Corvallis Heme-
An Eastern Bride and Corvallis
Man.

Monday evening, at the home OF
the groom's brother, Norton Ad-
ans. in the western part of town,
the marriage of Newton R. Adams
of Corvallis, to Miss Anna L. Craw-
ford, late of Bloomington. Illinois,
was solemnized, Rev. Mark Noble,
officiating. The event was wit
messed by the immediate relatives
of the interested parties and a few
intimate friends. The bride was
tastily attired in cream organdy,
and carried bouquet OF cream
roses.
This marriage is the outgrowth
of boy and girl love affair, of
long ago. in an Illinois town where
the bride and groom attended
school. Though years have passed
with their varied experiences and
trials, the friendship of au1d lang
syne has never been forgotten. and
the event of Monday evening was
the final chapter in the romance.
Ihe bride was born ana reared
in Illinois, and came to Corvallis
only two weeks ago, By all who
know her she is highly esteemed
for her modest, womanly character
and untarnished reputation. The
groom has resided In this city for
eleven years. and has many warm
friends who join in wishing him
all happiness. He is a member of
the well known firm of Adams
Brothers, contractor and builders.
Mr.. and Mrs. Adams will make
their residence in Corvallis, where
the groom will erect a cottage i'm
mediately for their occupancy.

TO HAVE NEW ROOF.
No More Leaks on the City Dads Work
to Commence at The City
Hall.

The city hall is to have a new
roof An ordinance authorizing
the improvement passed the city
council st special meeting Mon
day night. and work is to begin in
a day or two. The material to be
used is rubberoid, and it will be
put on by w. H. Downing of
Portland for the Pacific Coast Rub
Der Company. Rubberoid is a
comparatively new roofing mater
ial, for which great virtue is claim
ed. 1t and kindred materials are
fast supplanting tin for roofing
purposes. 1t is the material that
was used in the new roof on Hotel
Corvallis. 1t has been used ex-
tensively for several years in Port
land. It was invented IA years
ago, and roofs that were covered
with it then are declared to
be in good condition still. It is in
use on big smelters in Arizona.
and it stands the heat of that eli
mate fully as we'll as the cold of
northern regions. Besides being a
better, it is cheaper roofing than is
tin, since the tin trust got in its
work so effectively.
In the case of the city hall. the
new roof is to cost $454. The
builders give guarantee to keep
the building free from leaks for a
period of 10 years, and put up a
$500 bond to make the guarantee
good. Under the contract the
roof has to be painted at the end
of two years and again at the end
Of seven years from completion of
the job. The cornice and other
ornamental work is all to be taken
away temporarily while work is in
progress, and is then to be replaced
and painted, so that there is prom
Use that the upper works of the
building will soon present neat
appearance.
The renewal of the city hall roof
has long been an urgent necessity.
The building has leaked badly
for years, and much damage has
resulted. Last winter at one time,
after heavy storm the council
chamber was almost ahoat, with
the mating all under water,
the walls and ceilings soaked and
the drip, drip. of the freshet over
head, spectacle unusual in the
sacred room where the great faith
ers of the city hold august conclave.

CARRIES MAIL.
New Train Does-Woss for the LEGAL
Postoffice.

The new morning and evening
train between Corvallis and Albany
went into service yesterday. II
is mail train, and will carry three
pouches. The added mail facility
gives seven regular mail routes t.
Corvallis daily, a tremendous in.
crease during the past few years,
when it has jumped from the West.
side and Yaquina routes to the
present number. The list of routes
as it now stands is, morning and
evening train mail to Albany. even
ing and morning stage to Albany,
Monroe mail, Dusty route, West
side route, morning arrival and
departure of Yaquina, afternoon
arrival and departure of train from
Albany, making seven in all.
This is in addition to the departure
and arrivals of the three R.F. d.
routes.
The changes make a vast differ
ence in conditions in the local post
Office. There, the noon mails for
merly were all that had to be hand
led, and the work was confined to
the few midday hours Now, the
handling Of incoming and outgoing
mails begin with the arrival of the
morning stage from Albany at $3.50.
and continues until the arrival of
the train mail from Albany at s
o'clock in the evening. In short,
there is scarcely an hour in the
long postofflce day of fourteen
hours or more, that does not carry
with it the duty of disposing of a
newly arriving or departing mail.
Added to this is two mails on Sun
day, beginning with the morning
stage from Albany at 10 o'clock,
including the Westside train mail
at noon, and ending with the de-
parture of the evening stage mail
for Albany at four o'clock. Post

A PERIL.

If, as the New York Times ayers
Chairman Cortelyou is seeking
contributions from the trusts with
the understanding that the latter
are not to be molested by legisla-
tion or enforcement of existing laws
the fact is to be deplored. The
American nation is in no danger
from an outside foe. Its one and
only menace is from foes within,
and these are the colossal corpor-
ations, entrenched as they are in
special privileges and monopolistic
power. The Anti Sherman law
fixes their existence as illegal, and
the supreme court has held that
law to be valid.
This is the law of a great land,
the dictum of great people, and
Chairman Cortelyou has no right,
in consideration of contributions,
to give secret assurance that it will
be set aside, or made imperative.
In such course, lies the greatest
danger to the republic. If it con-
tinues to be practiced, and the
trusts continue to gather strength
and power, evil will come. Equal
rights to all, and special privileges
to none is the safest maxim that
ever a Nation rested on and the
longer the American republic holds
to it, the longer postponed will be
that day of reckoning that has
come fatally to so many govern
ments.
