KERRY COW" COMING.
Joseph Murphy's Famous Play7k
the Opera House Friday Night.

Kerry Cow is -typicaIly,
Irish. 1t tells of Dan O'Hara's S
love for pretty Nora Drew: He is
a farrier, warm hearted and honest.
While he does not claim to be btil
liant, he is gifted with that wit and
acumen which help Irishmen
to high places in the world. The
Drews are being pressedfor a mort
gage which was gotten by Valen-
tine Hay, scoundrel, who has the
presumption to declare his love for
the Innocent Nora. When he is
refused, Hay leaves no stone un-
turned to crush the Drews and 'O'
Hara. He uses henchmen to hide
pixies in the ford of the farrier, and
gave out the story that O. Hara was
making those pixies for the rebels
.O'HaIa is arrested, but. his. inno
cence is proven after his escape.
Beaten in this plot, Hay intends
fo1eclosing, but the younger Drew
has a thoroughbred, which will sell
for enough moEey to clear the debt
provided the ho1se wins. Hay
secures the best Tacehorse Of the
day, and the contest is between the
two animals: Drew's hoIse wins,
the mortgage is paid and Nora and
the farrier close the story with a
kiss, after Hay and his henchmen
are dragged to Jail for conspiracy.
The story is itself worth anyone's
attention, but Mr.. Doone has en-.
riched the play with the sweetest
touches of nature. and dressed all
with the truest bits of Irish seen
cry. The Drew farm is a delight
full country picture, and the smithy
offers every opportunity for natur-
alness. which opportunities are ia
ken advantage of by the entire
company. Mr.. Doone and his
helper make music on the anvil
while beating red hot iron into
horseshoes, and the chatter and
singing and dancing ale so true to
Lite that one forgets himself and
t,elieves that Mr.. Doc ne has taken
him into his own little shop. Then
the race is made exciting by the
fact that the news is carried by car
rier pigeons. "Kerry Cow is
natural, it is beautiful. This play
will be seen here next Friday night
land it will be exactly the same pro-
duction as was given at the Heilig
theatre, Portland; on Tuesday
night. Seats now selling. ,SssF

CORVALLIS, OREGON,
TUESDAY EVENING, JAN. 8, 1907
For a Pumping Station.

It is, as always has been the be-
lief OF the TIMES that a pumping
station should be added to the
mountain water plant for use in
case of accident to the pipe line.
The occasion may never arise when
a pumping station would be requir-
ed. Engineer Miller, at the time
when the plant was constructed,
opposed pumping station as un-
necessary. He declared that the
danger from landslides and other
wise to the pipe line is in6initesmal,
and that in case of accident The res
ervoir would supply water until the
break could be repaired.
Nevertheless, the time might
come when the ability to pump into
the mountain water mains might be
of priceless value. 1t would be a
measure of safety that would al.
ways be reassuring, if never need
ed, and never used, as has been the
case with the Portland pumping
station, no harm will be done. Life
insurance is not the less valuable in
case the insured doesn't happen to
die for long time.
These are reasons on which the
TIMES favors pumping station.
It was very handy last Friday when
water from DR.. Farra's mains was
available. In the same direction a
permanent pumping station might
be cheaply and permanently pro-
vided.

AS In PIONfER DAYS.
Lights in Houses no Better Than Tai
low Candles es-1he Long Fran
chise.

The electric light plant in Cor
Wallis is more Of problem than
ever. Private consumers have
been inconvenienced during thepast
week to an extraordinary degree.
I hey are helpless in,the premises
and must take what they can get.
A person standing under 25-candle
power light and holding a news
paper to within a foot or two of the
light in order to see to read, was a
spectacle in a Corvallis home the
other night. A light of the or
dinary power is little or no better
than tallow candle, and in many
case, not as good. The grouping
of two or three lights together in
order to get light enough for read
ing has been resorted to where
that means was practicable tits a
fact that on account of the bad
light reading has been abandoned
in many homes at times during the
past week on account of the poor
| quality of fthe lights.
In the midst of our boasted civil
ization, we are back to the starting
point so far as house lighting is
concerned, unless there is a coe1
oil lamp in reserve, for otherwise
a candle gives the better light and
costs less. 1t is condition that
Corvallis cannot point to with pride
It reflects no blame on the local
officials who regret the condition
as much or more than anybody
else. They are powerless to rene
fdy it, because they cut but little
ice in the 5000, 900 corporation
that now has Corvallis lights in its
grip. They say and higher Off
cials of the company say the lights
are better and that they are to be
made still better, but the fact re-
mains that during the past week
they have been worse rsthan at any
time since Johnson Porter sold out
to the present company. During
the dozen years that he was in con-
troll of the plant, the lights were
standard. They were infinitely
better than candles. A ten candle
light under the Porter regime af-
forded full and beautiful illumina-
ton for reading purposes. Ten
candle lights afforded more light
than does IS candle light or even
fifty candle light now.
People are wearying of the con-
dition and they have a right to do
so. A great hue and cry went up
recently for thirty years franc hise
to be voted, SO the present corpor-
alton could get it. The TIMES
opposed the granting of that fran
chise. It did not then, and it does
not now expect to see good come
of it. The result has so far been
anything but satisfactory. Its ef-
feet has been to deprive Corvallis
homes of excellent light they used
to have and to substitute therefore
a light no better than they had in
pioneer days. It isn't the natural
thing with a big corporation with
| long franchise Of 80 years, Longer
than the life of a generation to give
whoop whether its customers are
suited or not. The council thai
gave them this long franchise ough1
to compel the corporation to give
the citizens of this town proper
| lighting.
