CAPTURES MIDDLE STATES TEN

Alexander won the singles championship
and cup today in the challenge contest of
the middle states tennis tournament. The
challenger was outplayed In the first and
second set by the defending champion. Clar-
ence Hobart. 1t was lawn tennis of the
most rapid order. Hobart winning the points
from Alexander at the latters favorite
method of volleying play. But two sets of
this sort of work began to tell on Hobart
and he was compelled to slacken his pace
This gave Alexander his opportunity, and
he took the third and fourth sets by COM
paratively easy scores In the fifth and de-
Gliding set Hobart made a grand rally. He
was at times within point of taking the
match and retaining the trophy. From his
side of the net Alexander held him off. and
finally won by the score of PC. 4-6 Cd,

I'm both of these localities this game
was called town ball. In FOUNDERS as
originally played in England-I played 1T
there as child in Devonshire-the field
was In the form Of square, and in order
to put out the runner it was essential to
hit him with the ball while he was running
between bases. These were the two dis
tinctive features of town ball, as any one
who has played 1t, or seen 1t played, can
easily recall. The diamond-shaped field
was not known until its introduction by the

ALEeAt NEWSPAPER

III kilt Dfct tuitOitdA ditIAC blot during some time hau found space in the Nogoles Daily Neps, that delectable sheet, which is one of the sorriest specimens of the topographic art ever turned off from press, last Monday took decided exceptions to state ment appearing in THE OASIS of last week that under the Arizona law a newspaper must be publish ed continuously during period of one year, in order to be lawfully entitled to do legal print ing. In the article to which allusion is here made 8 paragraph of the law is quoted to show that only publications and advertise ments that are to be paid for out of public funds are intended.
 Now while he was president ot the Arizona Press Association the editor of THE OASIS had a hand in the drawing of that law. and 1t was intended to apply to all publlca- tions of legal nature; the bill was SO construed at the meeting of the Press Association from which it was taken and introduced in the legislature hy two members who were also legislators, one in each branch, and it has been since so construed by all who were then members of the Association.
 But granting that the claim of the Ners is correct-that the law applies only to publications or adj vertigements that are to be paid for out from public funds, then the records of Santa Cruz county convict the Nelos of having been illegally allowed a certificate of in- cebtedless upon the county treas ury for money which that paper would nave been excluded from taking had the law been enforced.
 At the meeting of the Board Of Supervisors of Santa Cruz county, April 3d, 1905, there was allowed demand for nine dollars from the N0qales Daily Neaos for publication of notice to delinquent taxpay- CTS. The demand is dated April lst, and Is Number 95. It is en- dorsed by Phil Herold, Clerk of the Board of Supervisors, by NJ. Mar stellar, Deputy Clerk, as filed April Sd. 1t is further endorsed Allow ed and ordered paid to the amount of $9, out of the expense fund, April Sd, 1905, J A. Harrison, Chairman of the Board of Super visors The record book of such certificates shows that Certificate of Indebtedness No. 95 was issued to meet that demand as allowed
 The records above quoted show that the law as construed by the Neaos has been set at naught by that paper To brand TIE OAsIs as an alleged falsifer the Ne,os falls into trap of it's own setting, and it cannot claim to have improved

was sfvle-has long since gone out of fashion Whenever any man mounts the editorial tripod and assumes to purycy news and opinion to tbe public, he becomes possessed of the right to criticise others, but possession of that right does not shield him from becoming the subject of criticism. And when one who has chosen that profes- sion meets criticism or ridicule, by retorting with epithets and vile language, he simply exhibits a paucity of intellect and a moral obliquity that should shut him out from the pale of respectable asso- citation. As instanced elsewhere in these columns, newspapers com ing to the exchange table of HE OASIS every week, show various newspapers engaged in eontrover- sies over their own respective merits and demerits. To criticise one another is a right that news papers exercise everywhere. Criti- cism is one of the provinces of a newspaper That is why the pub- lie grants them support. And a man who cannot stand criticism is out of place in the editorial chair of any newspaper.
 TIE OAsIs has always dealt very
 leniently with the Neles. Why 1t
 was established has been always a
 mystery. There was already in
 existence in the town one feeble
 daily which was supported in part
 bY other business carried on by its
 proprietor. The excuse put forth for both was that the people want ed the latest telegrams. Both the Tidettc and THE OASIS had always known that there were not sufficient people in this field who wanted
 telegrams to pay for them, or one of the two would have long since es- abolished a daily to meet that
 want. for time the Negs sup piled its readers with Associated ! Press telegrams, but it dropped
 the service some time ago. Since
 then it has clipped it's telegrams from outside dailies. (It seems also patent that the Times is doing the same thing). Then the Neies has filled it's columns with boiler plate
 that has been used over and over again. For many days it had the
 space always devoted in we'll reg i ulated newspapers to original and Interesting editorial filled with boiler plate, while its local news
 was the scantiest. And typo 1 graphically it's appearance has ] been a disgrace to the printing art Such newspapers are useless oum- berers, and anywhere else they would be ridiculed out of existence. But TIE OASIS has gone along on ! the even tenor of it's way, and has
 not said anything about all these
 facts. Yet both these freak daily
 newspapers of Nogales have de-
 voted their attention to efforts to cut into the business and revenues of The OASIS. (When the Times
 showed itself particularly vindic-
 tive and venomous in failure to lent in one particular direction. it

PAYS CASH NOW.
Benton Again out Of Debt Treasur-
er's Calf Today Cancels a1l
Warrants.

Benton county is once more out
of debt. The notice of Treasurer
Buchanan published in the Times
today, calls in and cancels all out
standing county warrants. Until
the issuance of this call there were
warrants outstanding since Novem-
Der I, 1904, a period o1 nearly five
months, and aggregating about
$1,000. Besides paying off the en-
tire Indebtedness of the county,
there is still in the hands of the
treasurer sufficient sum to pay
current expenses for possibly
couple of months. In addition,
the sheriff is still collecting taxes,
and something more will yet be adj
ded to the stock of cash in the
treasurer's hands. It will not suf-
fee for long, however. as provision
was only made in the levy for a suf-
fcient collection to cancel the debt
and leave the county free to oper-
ate on cash basis for a month or
two.
Last spring the county enjoyed
similar relaxation from debt for
a short period. All outstanding
warrants were called in March 2oth
and business was conducted on a
cash basis until July 9th, when
warrants began to be issued again.
The present call for warrants is the
third since tax collecting began.
The other two called in all warrants
issued between July 9th and Nov.
,,ember I, 1904.
/ The condition of county finances
ought to be source of satisfaction
to all taxpayers. Figures recently
published by the secretary of state,
show the county to be one of the
most economically managed of any
county in the state. Its current
expenses were less for 1904 thar
the expenses of all other countie:
in the state, save eight, and of the
eight, all were small inconsequen
tial OF new counties like Curry
Wheeler and the like. The con
dition reflects much credit on Mr.
/ Waters, Mr.. Rickard, Mr.. Irwin
Mr., Jolly, and perhaps other menb
ers present and past of the county
court.

E RURAL WORKED.
But old Line Didn't When the Doctor
was Wanted-An Incident.

Editor Times:-Wi1l you kindly
allow me space in your valuable
paper to say a few lines in regard
to the service the people here are
receiving from the Pacific States
Telephone Company.
It seems that when their service
is most needed they are off duty or
asleep or at least deaf to our calls.
On the 23rd inst. between the hour
of one and two o'clock a. m. we
were at the Hoskins Office for one.
half hour endeavoring all that time
to get call through to doctor at
Corvallis. and was compelled to
abandon the attempt. Resort was
had to the rural line which involv-
ed the awakening ofthe two switch
tenders between Hoskins and Cor
wallis and yet within ten minutes
we were through the switches Of
DR.. Luther's and J. M. Stats and
communicating with the home of a
physician in Corvallis. The aid
of doctor was much needed and
yet the great Pacific States Tele-
phone Company was deaf to our
calls.
Here we wish to say that it is a
great blessing to the people that
they have their eyes open and
learning that they can build and
operate their own telephone lines
and by so doing receive a much
better service and cheaper one to
them than they can get from the
Pacific States Telephone Co.
And yet they take or least seem
to take great pleasure in travelling
over the country and telling the
people that they are it and through
them the only real telephone serv-
ice is to be had. Yes. that sounds
well, but such is not the case as we
have been in position to know
for some time, to get fair idea as
to which of the two systems are en-
deavoring to do justice by the
people, and we have found that in
our locality the Independent system
is held in much higher esteem.
Much credit is due the rural
line switch tenders for their prompt
ness in attending to the switches
Yours for the Rural Telephone,

JURY TRIED IT.
Suit Against E. W. Strong-Lans
County Heirs, the Plaintiffs.

One of the jury cases in the pres
ent term of the circuit court was the
Palmer heirs of Lane county, YER.
sus E. w. Strong of Benton. In
November, 1901, according to the
complaint, Strong contracted with
the Palners to take all the milling
timber off of certain 100 acres of
land on Hutchinson Island, near
the mouth of the Mckenzie river.
By the contract, Strong was to pay
$3.50 per thousand for maple logs,
S. for ash. fifty cents per thousand
for white fir and balm, and Is cents
for red and yellow fir. By July,
1903, all timber Of the above var
ieties on the island that was ID
inches in diameter at the top and
eight feet long had to be cut and
removed. The sum of 500 was
paid down, and was to be a part
of the last payment. On a certain
date in 1903 a settlement was had
and $515.75 was paid by Strong to
the plaintiffs for logs cut from the
island. Plaintiffs claimed Strong
cut the cream of the timber and left
all the balm ard the poorer timbet
of the other varieties still stand
ing. Plaintiffs claimed Strong
owed them $1oo and interest, and
Strong claimed he didn't. The
case occupied a part of Monday and
| Tuesday. The jury was ou
when the Times went to press.

He BEAT LILLY.
In Lawsuit = Got big fee for Selling
Hopyard- ireland as Real Estate
Man.

A jury in the circuit court gave
to G. E. Ireland Monday a fee of
$3.50 for selling the S. N. Lilly
hop yard to D. B. Taylor. Accord
ing to the complaint and testimony
Mr.. Lilly himself was not willing
to pay the fee to ireland. The
complaint declares that it was
agreed between Mr.. Lilly and Mr..
Ireland that the latter should act as
an agent for the sale of the hop
yard. The original terms by which
the sale was to made was that the
place, with the lease held by GER
tain Chinese tenants cancelled,
should go at $12, 900. Taylor, the
prospective buyer examined .the
farm but returned to Independence
without making a purchase. On
the witness stand, it appeared in
evidence, that afterward, Ireland
went to independence to see Tay-
1or. Lilly had given Ireland the
privilege to sell the place, with the
lease of the Cinnamon in effect, for
$4,000. If he made the sale on
these conditions, Ireland was to re-
ceive a fee of $500. Taylor himself
testified that but for the efforts of
Ireland to induce him to do so, he
would not have purchased the hop
yard. The testimony of Taylor is
said to have been one of the facts
that foored the jurors and they
brought in verdict providing fo1
a five per cent commission on the
sale price of 50, 900 and interest,
aggregating $45e. There was tes-
tinony to the effect that after the
sale, Mr.. Lilly offered Mr.. Ireland
$40.

WATER COMMITTEE MET.
Some Committees Namsd-construe-
ton Work This Year If Possible.

A meeting of the Water commit
tee was held in the First National
Bank parlors Monday night. The
lam creating the committee does
not become operative until May 18,
and the proceedings were informal.
being confined mostly to discus
sion of plans. W. R. Hanse1l,
of the council committee, for selec-
ton of an engineer was present.
Robert Huston and J. R. Smith of
the water committee were appointed
to act with the council committee
in securing a suitable man to make
a preliminary survey for the pipe
lines. Mr.. Huston, Mr.. Avery,
and Mr.. Smith were appointed a
committee to correspond with all
towns that are operating water
plants under municipal ownership
for the purpose of securing data for
use as required.
It was the unanimous expression
of those present that a water plant
of permanent and substantial char
acter should be the guiding motto
of the committee, and that nothing
cheap in the way of material or
plans should be employed. It was
also the general idea that construc-
ton ought to begin as soon as pos
sible in order that work might be
in progress, during the Lewis and
Clark Fair. 1.-THE work ought to
be going this year. said Mr.. Mil
ler of the committee, when the
Lewis and Clark Fair is in prog
ress, so that the Eastern visitors
who come to Corvallis may see that
the town is alive and in the act OF
bringing in for domestic and other
use; mountain water known to be
the best the country affords" The
same idea is held by all the nemb-
ers present, and the expression
general that the actual work of con-
structing the system would be the
best advertisement Corvallis could
put out, and the most effective in
ducement that could be offered
homeseekers to locate in the town.
