Benton Jack Rabbits Belgian
Hares gone Wild?

Will Jack rabbits continue to
multiply in Benton? Are they
real, old fashioned Jack rabbits, or
are they of the Belgian hare tribe?
"A farmer whose boy recently
slaughtered two of them believes
they are an offshot of the now de
funct industry in Belgian hares,
and not Jack rabbits at all. Judge
Grefoz, who is not an authority
on any subject outside of game
chickens, city law, bull terriers and
watch machinery, thinks they are
as likely to be hares as rabbits.

A Place of Interest.

1t is interesting these days to note
the activity that is on among the
business houses of Corvallis. Ev-
cry one is on the jump, and clerks
are busy from dawn to dark.
Among the places where there is
no time for rest among the en-
ployes Is the O. : T.. Blackledge
furniture store on south Main
street. Thursday, a large ship
mont of fine bamboo goods arrived
aud has been placed on display.
Along with this comes a new line
of Morris chairs, fine rockers, good
mattings, a complete line of pastel
and other first grade pictures. such
as has never been seen in Corvallis
before, and many other new goods.
To any one who has. not paid a
late visit to this house. and priced
the handsome stock that is ever
there, it would be wise to say, 60
and see Blackledge. The visit will
pay you and you will find what
you want. e.la es

HOW 1T LOOKS.

In the beginning there seemed
little hope of democratic success in
the approaching presidential cleo
ton. If, however, the big repub-
1ican journals of the East become
much more strenuous, the country
will soon be persuaded that Mr.
Parker is likely to be elected. Here
for instance, is the New York Tri-
bune, solemnly declaring that Mr..
Bryan is deceitful in his announced
support of Mr.. Parker, and that in
secret the Nebraskan viii knife the
jurist candidate. u
If there is one thing in the world
for which Mr.. Bryan is preemin-
entity noted, it is that he is candid
frank. open, and without political
secret. His chief political failures
have been due to his aggressive,
open, fearless adherence to that
beloved principle of candor, and
his answering, hatred of guile and
deceit. Even his worst political
enemy admits that whatever Mr..
Bryan promises, that he performs
to the strictest letter. All this is
what makes the big papers absurd
of statement, and arouse general
suspicion that they are scared, 50
scared that they grasp at every
straw to hedge against defeat. They
behave so hysterically,i wall so vo.
ciferousiy, and beat the bushes Sc
strenuously that it looks like Mr..
Parker might get there. - :

HOW TO KEEP n.
Sweet Cider Sweet Result OF College
E1periment-Frn Juice Three
Years Old. s

Experiments by Prot. Pernot at
the college have evolved a method
by which cider and kindred bever-
ages may bs kept sweet for a per
iod of years. Prune juice in a
sweet state, put up three years ago
was opened the other day and was
found to be in as perfect state
of preservation as the day it went
into the bottle. Cider. kept for a
less period, but long enough to de
termine that it can be preserved for
mans life time if desired, and
was likewise found to be
sweet and as pleasant to the
taste as the day it was put
up. The method prevents any
ferment whatever, and leaves the
apple juice or prune juice in ex-
act1y the same state as when it
came out of the fruit. For carry
ing out the preservative process.
bottles or glass vessels capable of
being hermetica1ly sealed, are re-
quired, and beyond this there is no
expense except the labor, and ac-
cording1y the process is within
reach of all who desire. With
cider apples rotting under the trees
or selling at 10 cents per bushel,
the process opens way for con-
verting that which is now a waste
into a means of much profit. An
industry for the manufacture and
preservation of sweet cider for the
market by the plan, would un-
doubtedly develop into a. business
of large proportions. California
has been enriched from the sale Of
the juice Of her grapes, and Oregon
by sale Of the juice Of her apples as
sweet cider could put by a hand
some profit annually. gag s.t
! Pr5f. Pernot''s method of pre-
servation of cider is as follows: r.
= "As cider comes from the press,
iii IS filtered through asbestos, : or
any other material which will re-
move all the pomace that is held in
suspension, SO that after bottling
there will be no sediment. ~ E
"After filtering, the cider is i'm
mediately placed in clean bottles,
and corks placed loosely on top,
the bottles are then put in a steam
chest and steam turned on until the
contents of the bottles register a
temperature Of 100 degrees. This
heat is maintained for fifteen min
utes, the steam is then turned of
and the chest allowed to cool down
without opening the door. Twen-
ty four hours afterwards they are
again steamed, and twenty toar
hours after that the operation is
repeated for the last time; while the
bottles are still hot, they are tight
ly corked, and after cooling in the
steam chest the corks are dipped
in hot canning wax which finishes
the sealing. -
"Cider and other fruit juices
may be preserved in the same way
and used to an advantage in the
preparations ofrnany delicacies for
the table. as well as being used
as a beverage" s,,s 4si.z.. y

IF TRUE. wHATa
Where City Governs. State CaRnet :
A Queer Predicament.

A Queer Predicament. = -
A legal proposition raised in
Portland sends shivers up the backs
of Corvallis city authorities. It is
held there by some lawyers that
where authority is granted under
charter from the legislature to reg
ulate, govern, and penalize certain
offences. the state law covering
such offenses does not apply.
That is to say, belief is expressed
that wherever city laws apply, state
laws do not. Judicial decisions
are quoted from several states
which give the contention color of
sounddoctrine. The Oregon supreme
court has never passed on the
point.
Should euch theory stick, cur
ious consequences would appear in
Corvallis. If one man should at
tack another with a dangerous
weapon in the city limits, the only
penalty that could be metei out to
him would be a fine of $40 to S1oo.
The case might be aggravated
enough to send him under the state
law to the pententiary, but that
could not be done. Or, in = Port
land, for instance, and the same
would be true under. similar con-
ditions in Corvallis, the state SUI
preme court has intervened under
state law to prohibit gambling.
The city authorities are willing to
permit gambling. But if the con-
tention suggested, be sound, the
city authorities will prevail, and
the law of the state cannot prevent
the city authorities from permitting
gambling In Portland.
There always seems to be hole
through which lawyers can squeeze
through any man made law.

Big things are doing in the milf

result of the increase in attendance.
When arrangements are all perfect

of a battalion, the organization has
become a regiment with $50 men
instead of about $50. There are
four full companies of infantry,
each numbering 81 men, or two
more men than in a full company
in the United States service. There
Pis a detachment Of cavalry. consist
ing of a captain, first and second
lieutenant and "a men. including
non-commissioned officers, all to be
mounted. For the latter purpose
horses have been secured. There
is detachment of artillery, with
two field pieces, with captain and
first and second lieutenant and I6
men, a signal corps. with captain,
and 1ieutenants and a number of
men, and the. regimental band of
