More Roads.

Road agitation is becoming properly
wa rm. There are many earnest advo
Gates OF IA good highway from Toledo
into the south end of the county. At
present large number of our citizens
in that part of the county are com
PEELED to do business at Corvallis and
Philomath. Very naturally, they
would pre- or to spend their money at
home, but lhe absence OF II road to the
county seat compels them to 90 to the
Valley. The same situation confronts
large per cent OF our citizens in the
Biz Elk country. These are matters
which merit, or rather demand, i'm
mediate attention. Not only does the
absence of these roads work hardship
upon the present population of those
districts, but it acts AS a bar to further
settlement and development. The in
crease in revenue from taxes which
would follow the construction of these
highways would soon prove the wisdom
of the act. Besides this, the taxpayers
OF those districts are entitled to recog
milton in the matter OF highways.
Properly constructed roads and bridges
cost something, but are worth more
than they cost. 1t is the lack of the III
that is hurting Lincoln county.

Lincoln County Fruit.

Charles A Park, president of the
Salem Water Co. and commissioner of
horticulture for this district, was in the
city yesterday on his way home from
Lincoln county where he spent the
past week on an outing, accompanied
by Mr. aud Mrs. John b. Frem of
Chicago, eastern friends who are in
Oregon for an extended visit. Mr..
Park reported fine hunting on the bay
and his eastern visitors enjoyed the
stay at the seaside very much.
In speaking of Lincoln county aud
its fruit he stated that thus far the
orchards OF that section of the state
we're entirely free from blight of any
kind, but inspection was necessary
there and the greatest care was re-
quired TO keep them so. He has spent
some time every year since he is in
Office in looking after the orchards and
fruits of Lincoln county and he hopes
10 keep so close watch upon the
fruit trees as to prevent damage from
that source. He has great faith in
the future of the orchards of that sec
ton where, he says, the climate is pc.
culiarly favorable to the production of
fine apples. Albany Herald.

New Money Order

A new form of postoffice money order
has been adopted by the postotfice de-
partment. q form that will prove a
better protection against dishonesty in
the hands of purchasers than does the
old form. A description of the new
form is given below:
On the left hand side of the new
order is column of figures commence
ing at 81 and running in fives to 500.
Tho clerk at the issuing o flee will tear
this out so that it will show the num-
Der next higher than the amount for
which the order is issued This change
in itself is an important one, as it will
prevent the raising of the amount of
the order above the amount indicated
in the columns of figures. With the
old orders the figures could be erased
and others substituted. Even il an or
der of this sort could not be cashed at
postoftice, it might be passed on an
unsuspecting merchant. Another radi-
cal change in the order is that the ad-
dress of the person to whom the order
is made out is to be placed on the or
der as well as his name. On the old
orders the name of the remitter does
not appear. but this will be included on
the new orders. --Ex.

Miss Adelaide Thurston has been most
admirably cast for the character Of
Polly Primrose in Paul Wilstach S COM
edy Of Old Georgetown by the same
name, and the presentation at the Hy-
perion ON Saturday evening was one of
the events of the season. The patron
age, however, was miserable, when the
high character of the production is con-
sidered. Those who attended, however,
were most enthusiastic in their recep-
ton.
The play is one of an historic nature,
the action being in the time of the civil
war and the scene Old Georgetown at
the home Of John Ferguson, a leading
figure in the southern cause. Miss
Thurston, comedy and Winsome, with a
pleasing manner and fine stage pres
ence, was most acceptable as the proud,
defiant, hot-blodded southern lass who
detested anything which savored of the
Yankee, and who did not refrain from
telling those around her the truth. She
was called before the curtain at the end
of the third act.
The supporting company was very
good, especially Brinsley Shaw, Fred
erick Kirby and franklin Jones.
