a page torn from a diary of man
who feared only his God, and who
trusted in that tickle, commercial
article, woman's love. The Ralph
Henry Stock Co find great scope
for their ability in this play. the
title role is entrusted to that ster-
ling actor, Ralph Henry, who will
be remembered for his masterful
Interpretation of Lord Robert Wre
in The Christian. Though Still a
young man Mr.. Henry possess great
ability and is conceded by those
who are paid to know, as having
both remarkably fine stage pres
ence and a brilliant future. In the

other well known faces, including
Nina Buckingham, N H Robinson.

DEAD PIONEER.
One of the First to Come to Benton
Morgan Savage.

Morgan Savage, one of the earl
lest of Benton county pioneers, died
at Summit last Tuesday. He came
to this county when settlers could
almost be counted on the fingers oi
two hands, That was in I847,
when the largest town on the Viii
lamette numbered half a dozen
houses or less.
Mr.. Savage was born in Illinois,
in February, 1925. In 1886 he
caught the Oregon fever. and made
the long journey across the plains
via the southern ronte. In June o1
that year he was married at South
Platte to Miss Florence Brisbin
who after a married life of So years
still survives her husband. A spo1
near the present site of Independ
ence was reached January I, I847
and there Mr.. Savage remained
about a year. In 1867, the family
settled on homestead about mile
from Summit, Benton county. ane
there Mr. Savage resided almos
continuously until his death. M,
Savage was an esteemed and honor
able citizen. Twelve children sur
vive of whom, one resides in Cal
ifornia, one in Eastern Oregon, :
third in Washington, and the res
in the vicinity of Summit.
The interment was at the ceme
terry one mile from Robert McFar
lands place at Summit. The ser
vice was conducted by Rev c T
Mattoon.

ANOTHER FRANCHISE WANTED.
By Electric Railroad Time
Through Streets Of Corvallis.

u
The Willamette Valley Railroad
Company, which is the name of
the company that proposes to build
an electric road from, Eugene to
Corvallis is a petitioner for fran
chise torun the railroad line through
the streets of Corvallis. An or
dinance with that end in view, was
presented at the city council meet
ing Monday night, and the coun-
Gil was addressed on the subject by
Attorney Bryson, representing the
company in the matter. The fran
chise also embodies provision for
maintaining appliances necessary
for supplying electrical power for
commercial purposes. The ordin-
ance was referred to special COM
mittee and will be the subject of a
report and further action at the
next regular meeting Of the coun-
Gil.
The company wants to cross
Mary's river near the bridge and
come down Third street to the
north end of town, where it desires
TO enter Main street and pass out OF
town to the northward. The state
ment of the attorney before the
council was, that it is the purpose
of the company to extend its lines
northward through the valley. The
ordinance provides that the COM
! pany shall macadamize that por-
ton ofthe street occupied by its
track to the extreme end of the ties
| and that no obstruction shall be
permitted for a greater distance
/ than one block, or for a longer
period than 10 days. The street
shall always be left in as good con
dition as it was before being dis
/ turbed fer repair or construction
operations. Cars to be used on the
| line shall be of modern construc-
ton and suitably arranged for the
comfort and safety of the travelling
public, and the propelling power
shall be electricity. The track shall
occupy the center of the street,
and switches and other convenien'
ces shall be SO constructed as to in
terfere the least with travel and
traffic. Cars shall be operates
daily, and provision is made for a
bond to guarantee the carrying out
of this requirement.

ORDERED BUILT.
Though its Construction was Opposed
Lateral Sewer to Herning Pro-

pSIlF.
At. a meeting of the city coun-
Gil Monday nigh, a lateral sewer
was ordered CONSTRUCTED through
two blocks, in one of which the
Ed Horning residence is situated.
The question of whether or not
this sewer should be built has been
the subject of petition and remons-
trance for some time. On a former
occasion Mr., Horping and others
petitioned for the Improvement, but
opposition was offered and the mat
ter was dropped. The petition
found its way into the council again
couple Of months ago, and at the
following meeting its construction
was recommended by the sewer
committee. At the same time a
remonstrance appeared and the
matter was laid on the table. At
that time Mr.Berry appeared in the
interest of the demonstrators and
argued against the plan. At Mon
day nights meeting Nh. Hornipg
appeared before the council and ex-
planned that his physician had told
him that a five months attack of
typhoid fever with which he for
merly suffered was caused by i'm
proper drainage in the vicinity.
In answer to question. Mr.. Horn
ing stated that the expense of his
sickness at the time was $3.50 in
actual cash paid out, an amount
perhaps equalling if not exceeding
the cost of the proposed lateral.
The vote for the construction of the
lateral was unanimous,

AS TO HOP PICKING.
This Correspondent Wants Corvallis
Aristocrats to Stay at Home and
Let the Poor Pick.
Ed. Times:
Sept. S, 1904.

Ed. Times: -.
With the advent of Autumn
comes the rush to the hop yards.
Our town grows as quietas when,
earlier in the season, the pleasure
seekers went to the woods and
coast for rest ard recreation. But
now they are on a different errand
bent, their search is not now for
pleasure but the almighty dollar.
And it seems pity that people
who are surrounded BY all the lux
uries of life should don their old
clothes and fill to overAowing the
already full hop yards, thus debar-
ing poorer and worthier people of
tue opportunity Of making a few
extra dollars to aid them in the
purchase of the necessary things of
lie.
Many a family earn their spend
ing money by those few weeks in
the hop yards. Students earn their
books. Mothers earn few little
things for the children, girls have
few more little pleasures, and the
small boy adds to his mothers $
hoard.
But with the yards crowded
with the so.cailed aristocrats of our
city our worthy poor are cut off
from such privileges.
1t seems far wiser for those who
are well able to have every thing
they want without such labor, to
withdraw in favor of the less for
tunate.
Let the bon tons stay at home.

HAVE ARRIVED.
Transmitters for Independent Tele-

Phones.

Transmit'ers have arrived for
the Independent telephones, and
the work of installing them was
in progress all day yesterday.
The shipment was one expected
two weeks ago, the non arrival be-
ing due to the fact that the in
strunents came by. freight instead
of express. On account of the un.
expected number of orders for
phones, the company will be unable
to extend the service fast enough
to supply the demand for phones.
The factory is rushed to death with
orders, and what wasssupposed to
be a a5suf6cient supply for the Cor
wallis system was originally set a.
side. but it has proven far short OF
requirements However, the de-
fciency will be met in a short time
and all who have ordered phones
will get them as speedily as posi-
BILE. The service is extremely sat
