weekly ramus Corvallis, Oct 7, 1881. -EDITED BY- YANTIS & WOODCOCK, ATTORNEYS AT LAW. OFFICIAL PAPER FOR BENTON COuKTY- YAQUINA BAY. THE PRGBABLE COURSE CF PRESIDENT I YAQUINA BAY IMPROVEMENT FUND -For. the last several issues of the Gazette we have teen suggesting through Us columns the propriety of the people of the WiHameUe valley - putting forth a united effort by way ' of each person subscribing a small amount to be used in continuing the present force of workmen in the ha bor improvements at Yaquina qay We have not made these suggestions because we are interested in this matter any further than owing to our long residence in this our adopted State for the last twenty-eight years; - wo feel a deep interest in the general well tare and developement of our r.t ' Durinor all ot this time we have observed the difficulties, em barrassments and the large expense that have thus far allways had to be borne and paid by . the producing class of our people in transferring (heir produce down the valley to Portland and thence to sea by way of the Willamette and Columbia rivers.. This large expense is much greater than many are aware of un less they have carefully thought of tli matter. The coat, of tranoport toj wheat from Portland out to sea by itfct route has scarsely ever been less itSta from ten to fifteen cents per tfntihd on the entire portion of theorojtof this valley which is trans ported to foreign markets. Which in the aggregate would probably amomtt on live present crop to not less than $400000 per annum. This enoraius sum of money must for . over be paid by the producers ol Oregon bo long t they are compelled to rely opop that long circuitous route to get their produce to the pea ward. Wo have a good harbor At Yaquina bay and when the pres ent improvement is completed vessel 'larger than usually come to Portl and .run enter and care off the nruduce of ithe Valley. From almost any point in Ahe valley freight can be taken to Yaqnina bay, when the present Ore gon Pacific rail road is completed to rthat place, or" lew money than ia -charged from here to Portland, thus saving the rati re annua! tribute of abont $400,000 per annum which the producers of Oregon have to pay to get, their grain from Portland to the . ajOuth of the Colombia river. ' The evidence to the ean did mind -that the Oregon Pacifio will be ready to earry wheat from the Valley to .'the Ocean at Yaqnina bay in the near fnt ore is overwhelming. It appears to be as ehure and certain as any - other of the more usual and ordinary business undertakings of lite. The -contribution suggested will insure a .1 much earlier completion of the ini- - provement of the harbor than can be -done without it. If the neonle of -the valley genearlly contribute, it will also exhibit to Congress the great need of an early completion of the work, and will thus no doubt in sure a much larger appropriation from the next Congress tba n can be obtained without it. As we have often said before three or four dollars given by each person of the Valley who are directly inter ested in this improvement will insure money enough to keep the work in progress until after the meeting of next Congress. In view of all the facts, we are most assuredly forced to the conclu sion that all persons who are able and who refuse or neglect to donate, the small sum needed to this enterprise, arc certainly failing to do what is most to their interests. But in this . .matter, like all others, each person must judge for himself as to what is in st to do and then act accordingly In accomplishing this object it wil be found highly important and neces sary for committemen to go forth ir the country and interview each and every person, and give each one per sonally an opportunity to subscribe. Many people who are busy will not come to town for the express purpose ' of giving, and unless their presence is. sought many subscriptions wil nevar be obtained, which under olber circumstances could be had. Again we call the attention ot our readers to this matt ; Whilst the general reception of the request for subscriptions has been moat gratify ing, and whilst the movement has already gone far enough to prove that it is to Be an entire success, yet we are told that some of our fellow cit;- zens avert yet do not fully understand the matter. Bear with us a little, then, whilst we labor once more to hrinir thn Rubied home tO nV who 1 - have not yet contributed. First anl toi emost.it is not in any shape the i-nilu-nv tnuanis wllleh VOlir aid IS asked. The money is to be expended solclv in continuing the harbor im provement under the exclusive man agement of the U. t. Engineer? Under the sanction of the Secretary of War the U. S. Engineers control and direction of the work is to be Continued as long as the funds are subscribed. And the vouchers for ah money entrusted to him are to b rendered to, and will be published by, the commit te named by the citi- z'ii!. 1 lie sno!uripiiouB iciu w expended during the ensuing winter and spring in keeping in good couni tion, and continuing the progress of, the works already advanced nearly 500 feet ont of the total of 2000 feet contemplated. How necessarv it is tor our citizens w-,. i." , - " ' to join one end all, heart and poii', in this common effort will be known at one from the fact that out of the $50,000 appropriated by congress only enough now remains to continue the works until the end of this month of October. Should these works pres ently be stopped every one can see what irreparable irjury might result The first heavy storm might make an inroad on the work, such as could easily be stopped if competent men and sufficient material were at hand but which if neglected would expose to destruction all that there now is to show for the 50,000 of appropria lions. In this business it is fit that Benton county should take the lead. Oh own county is that nearest m point of distance, and best informed as to the progress of the railroad wh'ch urill in n verv few short months re- nlace the hillv road now alive with i teams and travelers. There are no parties or politics in ihin? evervone. without a single ex -y rf,r. - .seption, is deeply interested. Whil the railroad-divinity now at Portland is issuing his oracles to his bowing urn.-Hhinpni- and savins "the river nnust be improved," we of the valley ti!!inst do our work. We all re- tnjnl.r the method by which Mr. Smvpers" uuDils studied. "Spell bot ; a a - any,' saFd he to his class. 4,B-o t, bot i n, tin, ti-y, bottinny," answered the trembling urchins.

A great deal of speculation is lt circulation as to what president Ar thur will do in regard to changes in cabinet officers, who are likely to be is appointees, and whether he will attempt to encourage and follow the Granf-Conkling" system ot displa cing from and appointing to office. It is true that under all the circum stances that Arthur has entered upon the discharge of his present duties at tended with more embarrassments than any other president before Kim. While he has been for a long time a politician in sympathy with the Conklirg element, yet the duties ot president require him to look alter and care for the good "of all, and above all to shape the future of his administration so that its effect will result in the greatest possible benefit to onr common country and not use his high position for the purpose ol promoting the selfish ambition of Mime faction, when such a course in likely to prove disastrous to our re public. Dti ring the late unpleasant ness in the senate of the United States, the disgraceful proceedings in the late legislature of New York, and the tragical death of president Garfield, the people have so unaiii mously expressed themselves unfavor able to the Gian';-Conkliiig manm-i of manipulating the offices that Ar iliur cannot now he mistaken as to what the sentiment of the American neonle is upon this subject. It is not doubted but what Arthur is a sensi ble man. It is therefore reasonable to presume that he will take a sensi ble view ot the whole situation and endeavor to conform in his practical results to the desire of the American peopie.

We have beui repeatedly asked of ate what work was being done on the Yaqnina .railroad, and these par ties are always a little surprised at the answer. We will therefore slate for the benefit of inquirers that there are between eight and nine hundred men on the pay roll rf the company all ht whom will be paid in full for he past month's services to-day, and alt of whom are satisfied with their wages. In addition to this force whieh is all the company can conve nightly use in grading at present,' there will be three hnn'fred more commence work at the other end of the route next week. The rtompany also have four saw mills moving and one more in course ot construction that will be ready for work next week. The above statement doe not in clude the large forces now at work on the tunnel and on the bridge and trestle work which are separate and individual contracts and entirely out side of the company's pay rolls. neither does it include the contracts for ties to be furnished, or four large contracts for hewn timbers now being gotten out in the timber along the line. The above statement, which made understanding, ought to sat isfy the most skeptical that the Ore gon Pacific Railroad means business, aud that their road will be buil. as soon as men and money can accom plish the work. It is a noted and curious fact that no president from Washington to Garfield was born in a city, and that only the second Adams was even nominally a resident of a city when elected. it is wrong to shoot Guiteau, says tu New York Herald. Every hemp field on the continent cries -out against the outrage. Let everything do its ordained work for the good of the world. Not a very great while ago it would have been an act of treason in England to suggest publicly the idea of a radical change in its funda mental form of Government. In gen erations gone by men had been drawn and quartered but for the entertaining of a thought in that direction. The audible expression of but a single sentence has been sufficient to the consignment of a head to the block. Within a century, and siuco thirteen of her American colonies broke loose from hT and established a successful Republic, a J ream of release from t he ties of monarchy has been vaguely cherished by no inconsiderable num ber of people. The wonderfnl growth of the United Stales in territory, ma terial weak) , strength of national position, and development of itellect ual resources, have had their influence in the mother country that is gradu ally enlarging and steadily and sure ly unfolding to an ultimate result. It has often been uttered, by way of an ominous rumbling, that nothing revo Intionaiy would be attempted during the existing reign. There is signifi cance in such bold expression of for bearance. The popular feeling against, the House ot Lords is -not concealed, but it is repressed, except in occasional muttering. The as sassination of President Garfield has stirred the hearts of all English- speaking people to their depths. What indirect influence it is destined to exert with such common race can only be matter of conjecture. The London Spectator, a newspaper of long standing and of substantial in fiiience, in its last issue took the op portuuity, in an article on tn presi dent's death, to refer to the millions upon millions who havo mourned over it, and to nay: "This fact may yet have an effect in the history of the world. All Englishmen arc in terested in the only Englishman who reigns by election, and solicitous that he do nothing to lower an office that halt of them teel must one day exist in England." This is suggestive language indeed. That one-half of the englishmen living in England are in favor of a Republican form ot government is a declaration full of surprise. Yet it comes from a source that should know approximately of what it speaks. If the ball that so short a time ago commenced rolling, has al ready gathered to such a volume, it may be taken f r granted that it is still gathering, and when the event- lut oav, now cy tne spectator so ardently anticipated and so conn denlly predicted, arrives, the resis- tence to it will be weak and of short duration. Still, notwithstanding the sanguine expectation, it is hardly conceivable that the dominent classes of England would yield even to the inevitable without a desperate sti ng gle, even to the extent if necessary, of a resort to arms. The termination of the contest might be a foregone conclusion as regarded them; but intrenched in the traditions' of centur ies, it wooid be expected that hey The bodies of .the five men drowned in the Columbia on the 16th have been recovered. New and rich discoveries of silver mines are reported on the north fork, of Lewis river Idaho. A valuable marble quarry has been dis covered near Seattle. A ledge of chalk two feet thick was re cently discovered in sinking a well at Ceourdalene mission W. T. New Tacoma machine shops are crowded with work and now they want a rolling mill. The St Charles hotel at Portland, has changed hands. Thos. Guinean recently from Sacramento now has charge. Great damage was done to standing crops near Grand Ronde in. Yamhill county by the rain of the 23d and 24th. A musk mellon over three feet long is boasted of in Salem. Next comes a cabbage head at Vancouver weighing twenty-seven pounds. The Dakota on her last trip from the Sound took tea tons of pump logs and 640 tons of barrel timber from Olympia. The railroad grade from the Dalles to the Cascades is reported cempleted. The board of Underwriters of San Fran cisco offer $250 reward for the conviction of any person of arson in Portland during the past six months. ' Villtfrd and his party arrived in Portland last Friday, i 126 citizens of Tacoma signed a paper requesting a sewing machine agent to leave town, because he maligned Lincoln, Grant, and GarueM, calling the latter a scrub and windier, He left accordingly. A dog was accidentally locked in a mason ic lodge room in New Tacoma and fasted 28 days before he was discovered. Strange to relate he survived the fast and fully re covered. The government work at Coos bay ex tends from the shore into the biy 1,300 feet. At the outer end the water is 26 feet deep. The Dalles boasts of two pound apples and English walnuts native grown. A large tooth was recently found on Chehalim creek in Yamhill county. It weighs 11 lbs. 13oz. upper jaw. The tooth is from the j iw of a pachydermatus, or thick skinned animal. Second crop of blackberries reported in Douglas county. Second crops are quite fashonable of late. PostofHce department has ordered the mail services to be changed from tiro stage routes to the newly opene I line of the N. P. U. R. through as far a3 Spokane bridga. Buena Vista potery is troubled with a ghost. Mountain streams in California are dam- ageing agricultural . lands, by depositing alluvium brought from mines above. Next congi ess will be asked to devise some means of relief for them. A piece ot alder wood over an men in length was extracted, from the leg of Georgo Tillotson in Dallas last week. It had been imbed ed there twelve vears and gave him trouble occasionally though be was not aware of its presence till recently . Twenty-four Boston women have married negroes in the past year. Blue 'stockings and black legs. There are 585 Chinese children in the S; n Francisco -public schools.

Borgman, of Josephine county, this week -showed us some nuggets taken out of the Silver creek mines, that were beauties One of them weighed $85, another $05 and He expresses tne opinion that back, having passed through the body.

For some timo past a ghost has been said to haunt the premises upon which the B-T.ua Vista pottery is situated, and more than once Chinese laborers have quit work thre and no inducement could persuade them to return. For some months past bis ghostship has kept out of sight, but last week his visits were resumed and again the teeth of the Chinese servitors hive been made to chatter. The last exploit was a terrible shaking of -he floors of the building. A correspondent from that place says: On Friday night, while burning kiln, an appa rition was seen by the man burning. The specter had the appearance of a white calf. The person who saw it tried .to investigate it but could find nothing tangible. He approached the spot where it appeared to be, but could feel nothing. Then opened the kiln doors to throw light upon it, and it would vanish. Then, after a time, when the lights was taken away, it would appear again. 1 1 was one of the staying kind; it stayed until daylight caused it to vanish. The person who saw the apparation is per fectly reliablf, and is not superstitious in any way; consequently we ask, what was it? All agree that the apparition seems to be purposeless and harmless, yet it gives the credulous in the t n.mnnity a general shaking up whenever it appeals. Telegram.
