lowed. Mr. Williams, the minority
leader, took up the fight for the amend
ment. He said the dominant party
had not yet declared itself as to the
future of the islands and he did not
want the lesson taught that one peo-
pie might rule another people. Mr..
Payne of New York and Mr.. Smith OF
Iowa, on the republican side, seconded
Mr.. Littauer of New York, who was in
charge Of the bill i'll
amendment arguing that it was the
duty of this government to afford pro-
lection to the people of the Philippine
islands. By a strict party vote of 80
to so the Smith amendment was lost.
Washington, Feb. 19.-The house
began consideration of the naval ap-
preparation bill. Mr.. Fitzgerald of
New York declared our naval program
was to procure naval force greater
than that of Germany. He further
said, ''in all sections of the country
the conviction, rightly or wrongly, is
firm that the present occupant of the
white house is apt to involve us in
war with some other nation" Mr..
Foss made an appeal for the upbuild.
ing of the navy, emphasizing the
necessity of ship construction in times
of peace with the query, what would
Russia give today if she could call
back some of her sunken ships?" He
said in conclusion that when it be.
came necessary for this government
I to strike it should be prepared to
strike a blow like that struck by
Dewey at Manila Mr.. Foss was
strongly seconded by Mr.. Meyer of
Louisiana, the ranking democratic
member on the committee, who COM
batted the statement that the navy
was top heavy, as charged, and he de-
clared it indispensable that we should
have strong navy. Referring to the
Panama canal, he said he was for the
canal and also for navy to safe
guard 1t.
| Washington, Feb. 20.-Panama was
the subject CT three speeches in the
senate and was the only subject of
general importance that received any
attention. Senator Spooner complet-
ed the speech begun Thursday and
Senators Morgan and Mooney made
brief addresses. Senator Morgan spoke
| in opposition to the treaty and an
nOunced that he would not be heard
again on the treaty. Senator Mooney
announced his intention of voting
for ratification, but criticised the part
taken by the United States in con-
nectiCn with the secession of Panama.
During his speech Senator Spooner
engaged in spirited colloquy with Sen
ator Tillman. He defended the presi-
dent against the assumption that his
/ position on Panama involved the rec
ignition of the right of the southern
states to secede. In the house Mr..
Hardwick, democrat of Georgia, pre-
cipitated a discussion on the Philip
pine question by declaring the reten-
tion of the islands was responsible for.
i the demand for a large navy He
/ challenged the majority to make a
declaration as to the future of the is
lands. Mr.. Cooper of Wisconsin
championed the governments Aosition

Patrick Quinn Expires From Heart Dis
ease While at Work.

The people of Cresco were inexpress
ibly shocked yesterday afternoon tc
hear that Patrick Quinn had passed
away without a moments warning
while at work on the Edwin Church
farm just south of town.
He had been at work with his son
and some others laying stone, and was
talking to some one whoOhad stopped
in, when he suddenly fell forward,
hammer in hand, and died almost in.
stantly without uttering a word OF
making a struggle of any kind.
While Mr. Quinn has always been
able to follow bis trade and was seem.
ingly in good health, still we under.
stand his heart had been affected con.
siderably during the past few years.

Last spring the Maboqs secured an
option on the Asher Adams farm Of
100 acres south of Florenceville which
was sold to M. Jones and which he
exchanged Tor the stock of goods at q
valuation of $4,000.
Mr.. Malek is undecided as to what
business to enter but will probably
accept an offer to travel for Mime.

Dad Talks About Preachers.

Now and then; one hundred years
ago, without any regular place of wor-
ship, with the seat of his pants worn
thread bare, on the saddle exposed to
all kinds of weather, his features
bronzed by wind and sun, he could
double discount the sleek and we'll
groomed preacher of the present time
In knocking out the devil and bring.
ing sinners to repentance. As Dad
reads history he did not preach saloon
and liquor traffic, but Christ and Him
crucified. Had there been any Prohi.
bitton party at that time, undoubt.
edly it would have received a. many
votes in proportion to population as
1T does at the present time. Surely,
there has been q great waste of wind
and some talent.

Gasoline Can Painting q Fake.

In answer to q query sent to tho
clerk of the executive council By
Mayor Hobson, Of West Union. that
official states there is no law compel
ling dealers to paint gasoline cans q
vivid red. Such q law was proposed
but was killed by the last legislature.
A law was passed requiring all gaso-
lene cans to be labelled with q card of
red color on which should be printed
the legend:

This Can Is For Gasoline Only.

The secretary Of state is furnishing
these cards to the trade. They are
about four inches long and built IN
proportion, says the Argo.
This version of the red can question
is probably the correct one, as the
local agent of the Standard Oil Co,
Chas. Caward, has received . big
supply Of the above mentioned labels
from the Secretary of State.

TOOK HIM FOR DEER.
And Fired Struck Pile in the Shoul-
der-Rey. Memminger.

Additional particulars have been
received here in a private let eT
from Rev. Memmi ger of the acci-
dental shooting by him of a young
man named Pile. VIII le out hunt
ing last week in Cow Greek canyon.
Rev. Memminger, it will be remem-
bered s-rved year in the pas, crate
of the Methodist church this city.
The accident happened while the
Corvallis man and J.B. Pile AM his
soE were on deer drive. They
had started out, walking abreast, !,
500 yards apart, it being under
stood that al were to travel in
straight line and in the same direc-
,ion. The young man had never
hunted before, and becoming be-
wildered, had, within ff cen minut-
es after starting crossed the path .oi
Mr.. Memminger, who was in the
middle. The father began shoot
ing, and after standing still several
minutes, Mr.. Memminger noticed an
object moving Ut some distance in
the brush. de watched for about
three mi, utes. and un Ter the GER
| tain impression that it was deer,
fired. The ball took eff ct in the
young mans houlder, inaicting
only a slight flesh wound. The
party returned at once to Portland
where after three days in a sanitar,
ium, the wounded man was dis
char, ed, and is now practically re
covered. The weapon used was
1920 Winchester.

WORK BEING RUSHED.
The Telephone People Busy and Pa
irons Highly Pleased With
System.

IA e handsome t thing in the way
OF switchboards that has ever been
seen in this section arrived We'd
nesday and has been placed in po-
sition in the Independent Telepho1e
office. As it stands, the new spafch..
board cost $I38I SO. It is quaYter
sawed oak, aud in appearance re-
sembles piano, although some
what smaller in size. When COM
pleted the Office equipment will
have cost the Independent compa-
ny $500, or considerably more
than the system promised the COM
pany was to have cost Corvallis.
This is the 70 al way in which Mr..
D:Yar. ey has kept faith, md the
latrons of the new iine should feel
great pride in having such a splen-
didly equipped Office aud on- of the
best sy stem. on this coast. One of
the peculiarities of the new system
IS, tn It when a patron rings his
bell, the fact that he is on the line
| is made known in the central Office
by the illumination in colo!s of
certain one Of a set of glass buttons.
one large button, called the pilot
light, calling the attention of cen
trail" to the fact that some one of
the smaller lights is burning.
Whe , the p rites cease conversing,
the. lights go out and the butt MS
lose their color and remain white,
thus telling central. Wit, out her 60
ing into the conversation, that the
two takers are off the line In
this way central need not be 1iste-
ner to any part of the conversations
that are carried on over the phones.
There are two systems in the new
Office. The farmers or rural 1iues
have what is known as the magnet
! ic system. with numbered drops as
the Bell system uses. The city
telephones are on the central ener-
gy system, but the two systems are
easily and quickly connected SO
that all rural patrons are in instant
communication with places of bust
ness in Corvallis The power
board of the new system is also in
position. 1t is of mar Bile, 6x4 feet
in size, and cost $2oI.Io. There
are now AZ telephones UP on the
rural lines, and IT'S city instru-
ments have already been received.
When completed, the new Inde-
pendent system in Corvallis will he
all, if not more, than had been
hoped by patrons. BY the last OF
next week it is thought that ev-
erything will be in working order
