WILKINS- NOW ASHAMED OF EACH OTHER Everybody is ashamed of'Asham ed-ot-his-name. The exposureoff - - - - , . i his lies ha3 iniured the cause in hich they were told. Gellatlv . - himself realized this and in yester day's Gazette acknowledges that WatterB did not buy the $30 record. Of course Watters did not buy it everybodyTinew that when the Times published the original bill. And of course every - other charge brought against Watters is equally false, and nobody knows it better than Gellatlv. .Gellatly is the man who started all this book talk, for the promulgation of which Asham-ed-of-his-name has only been the vehicle. Yet it turns out that dur ing four whole years the Portland firm in question has sold Watters $83 worth of books, and has sold, Gellatly during the same time, $81 worth of books. Watters $83; Gel latly $81 $2 difference. Now why does not Gellatly, and his ' man, Ashamed of-each-other, own up to the truth? -Whether or not they own up is immaterial, since the people understand the facts. r WHAT JUDGE WOODWARD SAYS ABOUT : V': -II , - '- : ."- Much has been said in this cam paign about alleged , improprieties in the riUTchase of blank books for tVeo.ujity. '-As a matter of fact the whole controversy about the -books from first to last has been an at tempt to make somethiog out of nothing. - Here is tha proof; i " Yesterday afternoon,- a Times writer asked Judge Woodward this question: "Judge, who bought: tha i ".' $30 record?" With some reluctance Judge Woodard consented to reply. This is what he said "The parti cu 1 arblank book 17 you refer to as costing $30, was a printed blank book lor the recorder's use; but .'.by whom it was ordered I cannot stale only that it was not bought by the present county court." Continuing, Judge Woodward said: "Following the custom hereto fore adopted, the present county court has not been ordering blank Tx)oks for any of the county officers, Each officer himself gives the order for such as his office may require. and the county court, aiier proper and careful consideration, allows the payment of the bill, or such of it as is deemed just." In answer to a further question. Judge ; Woodward said: "The quanity of blank books which has been purchaseed : during .the . past two years has been comparatively .email." :.'u;'..; .;-l--..-T"".',"' Then the reporter asked this sig nificant question: "Judge, has there Vvbeen any extravagance in the pur chase of books or blanks by any of the county officers"? This is what Judge Woodward said in reply: "NO; I. think the county officers have all shown a-commendable epirit in trying to get along with as few books and. blanks .as possible". Thus is brought , out the exact facts in the case. No one, - fori a moment, will question Judge Wood ward's statements. He is a repub lican and is interested in the suc cess of the republican ticket, but he has a conscientious regard for the truth, and does not consider it prop er to permit ; false impressions in this book matter to be spread broad cast. This settles the whole book controversy. . " Tor Ribbons. : Of course you know that ribbons are in high favor ; again and that manufacturers spurred on by the increasing demand have vied with each other in producing the most attractive and realiable goods since the. opening of this industry. A large stock of ribbons selected with care from the leading lines awaits the inspection ot our customers. We are certain that the styles and pri ces will be satisfactory. . : F. L. Miller. Tor Gloves. ' Kid gloves for spring are now on display here all the correct shades in complete line of sizes. Hardly necessary to say that the quality will prove reliable, and if a pair happens to prove defective we re place them with a new pair. Our kid glove; trade demonstratesour leadership in this line. We handle the P. Centmeri. F. L. Miller. for mens furnishings.. " . The old idea that dry goods stores could not supply up to-date furnish ings has been thoroughly exploded. Some of the best men's furnishings department in the country are loca ted in dry goods stores, of which our own is a convincing object les son. Buy men's furnishings here and you will" get right styles at right prices. - F. L. Miller. Tor Shoes. Shoe business comes our way be cause we have the kind of footwear that people Want at the prices they are willing to pay. We are now i closing out our lines of winter shoes and opening the new spring stocK. If you want good shoes at cut prices or the newest styles at low prices you can get them here. . F.F.Miller In an article over his own signa ture in yesterday's Gazette, Mr Gel latly , acknowledges that County Clerk", Watters did not buy the $30 record. In his article Mr Gellatly , ascribes the purchase of the book to the county court, This is what .he says: "The book was needed in my office, and I so Informed the - book agent, and referred him to the county court." v In an ; interview - to be seen elsewhere in this paper' Judge Wood ward says.: "The blank book referred to was a printed "blank record for the recorder's U3e; but .by whom ordered I cannot state, only that it was not ordered by the connty court." When-a man goes to pay his taxes, he likes to know that the man behind the counter is reliable and trustworthy. He likes to know that the. hard-earned dollars paid in are to be credited to the right man, and that the tax account for which the money was applied will be forever squared. He wants every thing con nected with the transaction to be correctly done, so that he may go his way in peace without fear of be ing called upon to pay the same ac count a "second time. And it is right in this particular that Telt Burnett, as an official, is a sure shot. His business methods are so correct and careful that his books are absolutely free from error. Tax money paid to him goes exactly to the account where it belong?,- and the payer is never called ; upon to pay a second time. It is .hoth a pleasure and a relief, to have be hind the sheriff's counter such an official with whom to do business. With a clean record in this particu lar for the past four years as deputy sheriff, what; continued . excellence the office? Under such conditions, ; Given away . to cash buyers only, piece by piece, and how can men have - doubts as to continued until you get a complete set. Set consists of cups whom to vote for? - ' and saucers, pie plates, brerkfast plates, dinner plates, sauce ,,,,..

Jill tbe Coud Calk About Xbe Best Place to Crade." : Might be very confusing ; and misleading if people did not have a good test to apply and that is judge a merchant, not by what he says in his advertisement, but by what he does in value giving. That's just the basis upon which we ask people to judge this store. ' We like to have our advertisements read because they are our store news, but we don't ask people to take . them as proof that we give best values, that proof awaits our customers at the store, Cow Prices make easy Selling; ; When they represent the right kind of mer chandise. That's the reason this store continues to show such'a surprising growth. We distribute more dry goods than many of the leading: mer chants in towns twice the size of Corvallis. This shows that we not only, supply the dry goods needs of the majority of our town's people, but draw trade from a large territory round-about. These are the goods and priees that attract trade.

Corvallis Oregon Last fall I sprained my left hip while handling some heavy boxes.; The doc tor I-called on said at first it was a slight strain and would soon be well, but it grew worse and the doctor then said I had rheumatism. It continued to grow worse and I could hardly get around to work. I went to a drug store and the druggist recommended me to try Cham berlain's Pain Balm.- I tried it and one- half of a 50-cent bottle cured me entirely: I now recommend it to all my mends P A Babcock, Erie, Pa It is for sale by Graham & Wells " . , . .. - ; - , We have saved many doctor bills since we began using UnamberJain's uough Remedy in our home. We keep a bottle open all the time and whenever any of my family of myself begin to catch cold we begin to use the Cough Remedy, and as a result we never have to, send away for a doctor and incur a large doctor bill. for Chamberlain's Cough Remedy never fails to cure. It is certainly a medicine of great merit'and worth. D. S. Mear-. kxe. General Mercnant ana - fanner, Mattle, Bedford county, Pa. For sale by Graham & Wells. , XHice To Creditors.
