FATHERS 9TH CHILD.
Chicago Man Is Happy Surrounded b,
Babiee-Noise Does Not Worry
Him.

Chicago, Jan. 17.-m a big leather
easy chair, seemingly unaware of the
noise which eight of his children made
with their new Christmas toys, Jona-
than Allen Monroe sat in his home,
meditating deeply upon the fact that
for the tWentY-SeVcnth time he was a
father.
An atmosphere of home pervaded
the house when a reporter, coming to
interview the father of twenty-seven,
was announced.
Mr. Monroe arose from his chair to
meet the visitor, and. with a significant
dizziness born u .n5 experience,
slightly raised his hand.
In an instant the children gathered
up their toys n were gone. You
see" said the happy worker of mira
cles simply, they obey me-
The youngest of the twenty-seyen
children of Mr.. Monroe, who is a cat
tie buyer At the Union stock yards, ar
rived at 5:34 a. m, January 4. It is
a fine, bouncing baby boy, and the
proud father declared that in all of his
experience he had never seen Il better
one.
Mr.. Monroe. who Is SO years old, is a
bitter opponent of race suicide, and a
long time friend of President Roose-
welt.
II knew the president in Albany. N.
Y, many years ago" he said. But,
pshaw, l won irnDose upon his good
nature by telling him of so small an
aff"ir as the arrival of a t~wenty-sev-
enth child"
Fifteen of the children are still liv-
ing. and all but three remain at home
with their father. The three who have
left home are married daughters. none
of the sons even having been married.
All are given an education and a
start in business.

said his uncle's condition was hopeless

A Public Accommodation.

Ask and ye shall receive
there seems much truth in the
saw. During the recent past we
have been :sking a little and
have been receiving. Few towns
the size of Corvallis can be found
in Oregon with railroad facilities
such as ours. This is the termi-
nus of the West Side and the c..
& E. passes through the city
from east to west. Aside from
this we have several trains be-
tween Albany and Corvallis
daily.
Heretofore if any person had a
desire to go to Independence on
freight they were compelled to
get a permit. Sometimes
PERSONS notice was so short that
there was not time to secure such
permission to travel on the
freight train and much incon-
yenience resulted to the Corvalli:
public having business in 1nde-
pendence, Dallas, or way points
The same trouble was experien
ced bv those who resided in the
last mentioned towns.
Recognizing our needs ane
wishing to improve condition
here, B. w. Johnson, presiden
of the Citizens League, took tn
matter up some time back witt

Pipe Organ Recital.

A two manual pedal pipe or
gan will probably be installed in
the college chapel during the
week. Prof. Taillandier is bring
ing this instrument to Corvallis
at his own expense for the pur-
pose of giving one or more public
recitals, and the organ is to be
used for concert purposes.
Prof. Taillandier announces an
organ recital to be given Friday,
May 25th, at $500 P. m. Tick
cts will be so cents each, as the
expense for getting the instru-
ment is considerable, and the to-
tai costs for rental, transportation,
insurance, setting up, etc., will
be nearly one hundred dollars.
The organ is practically new,
having been in use only for a
very few months. Fuller partic-
ulars will be given later.

AFTER THEM.
All Veterans of the Civil War Will
Be Urged to Join g. A. r.

In a recent general order issued
fl ON the headquarters Of the Grand
Army of the Republic at GAINESVILLE,
Ohio, the comrades are urged to &C.
tivity in securing members of the
organization-in fact the g. A. R. is
to have a recruiting service of it's
own, like the active war and navy
departments. 1t is suggested that a
complete list be made of all honor
ably discharged soldiers, sailors and
marines in the vicinity who are not
members of the post, and that the
lists be read in the open post meet
ing at least three times at success
sive meetings for the benefit of the
active members; that the post COM
mander visit all the persons named
and urge them to join the post, and
that a committee be appointed to
cooperate with the post command
or in recruiting. 1t is recommend
ed that csmpfres and reunions be
held each year for the purpose of
recruiting these men. The order
states that it is lamentable fact
that not one-half of the surviving
soldiers and sailors of the rebellion
are members of the G. A. r.
For the benefit of the aged and
infirn members of the posts the adj
infant general recommends that
eout posts" be esta blished as meet
ing places for the men who are un-
able to attend the regular post
meetings. These out posts will be
authorized by the department COM
manders. and may be held in the
home of some veteran. The parent
post will fix the limit within which
the members Of such an out post
NAV reside, pass upon the fitness Of
the applicant and fix the amount to
be paid in dues.
The same order Of the adjutant
general contains the news that post
department commanders and past
most commanders may, by late
rulino be entitled to the same rank
and privileges in different depart
ments TO which they may remove.
This is a ruling that has been earn
estlv worked for By many OF the
veterans Of Iowa.

MUST FILE STATEMENTS
Candidates For Office Must Make
Statement of Campaign Expenses.

All candidates for any office, either
at the primary or general election,
will have to file statement of all
money expended by them for cam
paign purposes and failure to do SO
will cause arrest. This applies to
all candidates for nomination or
election, whether successful or not.
The law limits the time to thirty
days after the general election and
candidates who fail to comply with
the law will be prosecuted. Several
district attorneys have correspond
ed with the attorney general on
several points of the law and an
official opinion from him follows:
Your letter of the 10th inst. ask
ing for my opinion as to the con-
struction to be placed upon Chapter
500 of the laws of 1905, relating to
filing statement of expenses made
and incurred by candidates for of
fee, received.
Replying / will say that the
phraseology of this chapter relating
to itemizing expenses of candidates
is not as clear and plain as statutes
imposing penalties should be writ
ten, and yet think the intent of
the legislature may be gathered
therefrom without great deal of
difficulty.
The first part of Section 1, of the
act provides,
Every person who shall be
candidate, etc. shall, etc make
out and file with the proper officer.
etc. a statement IN writing sub
scribed and sworn to by such candi-
date, setting forth in detail each
item in excess of $500 in money, or
property contributed, disbursed, ex~
pended or promised by him.
From this it seems quite clear
that each item IN excess of SIS. 90
must be set forth In detail, that is
all facts relating to such item re-
quired by the statute to be stated,
must be given and if the expendi-
ture is made up of minor items they
must be as fully expressed in de-
tail as the statute requires, but
that no detail is required as to
items of five dollars or less. In
other words, all expenditures in ex-
cess of $500, the date when, and
the persons to whom and the
purposes for which, all sums were
paid, expended or promised, must
be shown in the itemized state
melt, but as to items of IS. 90 or
less, these particulars are not re-
quired by law to be stated.
AS to the latter part of the sec
ton, which reads as follows:
And the total aggregate sum
paid, expended or promised by such
candidate in any sum or sums
whatever"
This in my opinion refers to the
total of all sums paid. expended or
promised by any candidate, in
Guiding both items in excess of
S.. 90. and those of $500 or less, the
aggregate amount of which must be
given.
I trust what / have said answers
your inquiry, Yours truly,
L. M. STURDEvANT,
Attorney General.
