Mrs Maggie Osborn died oa Friday of last week and was buried Saturday at Ya- quiua City. She leaves a child with her" mother there and a husband in Walla Wal la, Tho deceased was about 18 years of age. One thing this city can boast of, should all these couuty slashing schemes succeed, is that the corporate limits of Corvallis woald be about identical with the boundaries of Benton county, and it isn't every town that can be as big as a whole county. It is said that catastrophe, cri mo, legisla tive madness, etc., all run ia contagions, and it looks as if the horse whipping fever might be included in the list, it having ex ... . ... .... - teuaea rrom .aioany to uorvams witbin a few days. Nobody hurt here, however. The whist slub held their regular weekly . meeting Saturday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. M. Jacobs. Mr. Arthur . holgatefand Miss Sarah Jacobs were part tiers and made 57 points, this being the - highest score made during the entire season.

The Corvallis Congregational church is . making preparations therefore for the meet. ing of the association, which takes place early in April.- , William 8. Stock, a Corvallis boy whom . the Oregonian compliments as "a competent prescription pharmacist and chemist, having . recently graduated with honors from the California college of pharmacy," has accept ed a position with the LacerDavia drag company, of Portland. The man whose boast was that he "had done business for years and never adver ' tised" now looks on while a receiver will do , the adertising for him. Looking askance, the namo of another oue or two is Labia soon to appear in the same category. - Another crowd of Corvallis men went to Salem today to oppose division. They have the maps show ing conclusively the disad vantages of division. These division schemes are generally pre.naturc, often started by men wanting offices Albany Democrat. 'Doleful titlei are told regarding the state road leading out from this place. Jt is said that travel upon it is j list about impossible .even with a strong (earn and a liht buggy, and that its condition never was so bad be fore. The Gazette gives it up. Suggest- ions are obsolete, bo long as tne present system of road making remains, s long will the couutry be without remedy. Attention is called to the advertisemeit of 3. L. Kline in this issue, whore he offers, a horse, siddle and bridle to the lucky boy who buys a 5.00 suit of clothes. Call ear ly and learn the particulars. Mr, Kline always appreciates the patronage extended to his clothing department and will givo every purchaser of $5.00 worth of clothing a chance to take a horseback ride this sum mer. It looks as if the taxes of this county, which should have been in course of collec tion since the first ol January, will be gath ered some time after a while iu the sweet subsequent. They were completed lorg ago up to those matters to be shaped by the state board, and now that hts been met with the injunction action, tho getting of the rolls into working order will be still further delayed. At a meeting of the democratic state cen tral committee at the capital on grouud hog dav it is stated that the object was to har monize all factions of the democratic party, and not to fix np anything about the federal offices. The proposition is a paradox on the f ice of it. The committee scorched Peu noye'r pretty savagely, and signed their names to itW. That will look big before G rover Cleveland, yon know. A delegation consisting of Judge Burnett, G. A. Waggoner, D. A.Osborn, W.ILHart less, Robert Johnson, J. K. Bryson and E. Skipton were constituted a committee by the citizens' meeting to go to Salem and oppose the county slashing uusinees going on in the legislature. Quite a number of other citizens went along to bear a hand. Nothing had been heard from them con cerning the situation yesterday evening. Report comes that Representative Bel knap and U. A. Waggoner bad a personal difference in the committee room of the state capitol last evening, which would have resnlted in violence but for the intervention of friends. Tho current version is that in a discussion Belknap gave Waggoner the lie, when the latter sprang to assail the repre sentative, but was prevented as aforesaid The affair broke np the committee meeting. Notwithstanding the special holiday do mand is over, Greffoz is still there with the gems ia jewelry. The neatest designs in plate, tho finest diamond-set and plain gold witches and rings, chains iu all varieties ; elegant searf-pins, ear-rings, cuff-buttons, studs, etc., either plain or with solid stone or diamond sets, silver and ailverihe watch s, gold pens and pencils, spectacles in fact anything usually found in a first-class jewelry store is to be had at GroffozV Civilian candidates, for the position of Indian agents will be left. The Indian ap propriation law of July, 1392, placed the Indian ageuoies of the United States fa the I iwar department to be filled by army officers According to the service rule governing them. The bill originated in the honse and was slightly amended in the senate with a clause giving the president the power under extraordinary circumstances of sot ting aside tho law and appointing a civilian. Services at the Presbyterian church next Sabbath morning and evening. Preaching -by the pastor.

Services of praise at 7.30 p. 111. A kind welcome to all. The Albany Democrat drives tho' center squarely when it articulates the result of its observations in the following words and figures, to wit: Iu Oregon people, in and out of politics, scheme to see how much free advertising theycau get out of a newspaper. It is different in San Francisco. After tho recent election the board ot election commis sioners audited and allowed the following bills for. printing nominations. Oregon papers print for nothing.: Examiner, $13. 200; Chronicle, $13,200; Call, 13,104; Post, 811.850; Report, $11,000. Senator Dolph having learned that there are on the 'house calendar several bills to ratify agreements with the Indian tribes; t j cede portions of reservations and open them to settlement, which cannot be con sidered because they contain provisions for appropriations of money, and are objected to by Mr. Holman and others, last Tuesday introduced an amendment to the Indian ap propriation bill, providing for the ratifica tion of the agreement with the Indians up on the Siletz reservation, in DnnAn VI , V.W,.U. ill. I will try to secure the adoption of the amendment, but will have to overcome the opposition of the committee on appropri ations and upon Indian affairs, who object to eucn legislation upon appropriation bills. EXAMINATION OF TEACHERS. " superintendent Bryan's Civil Service Bnreau for the examination of applicants for teachers' certificates is sitting in this city. Examinations began Wednesday and will probably be concluded to-morrow eve ning, so that the duties of determining the standing of contestants will be continued into next week. There are thirty-eight applicants, comprising teachers from every section of the county. There are ten or a dozen misses from Philomath, mostly attendants of the college at that place who have como down, as a friend of them stated, Just to try themselves to see what thev couia no, ratner man with any expectation 1 1 . . of teaching." Some of them will evidently realize their highest anticipations. Alto gether they form about the livliest, chirp iesf happiest and most musical aggregation of bucolic feminine sweetness that has had possession in toe Occidental hotel this. waiter, lucre now! - A' PROTEST AGAINST THE DIVISION OF BENTON COUNTY. At a mass meeting of representative citizens and taxpayers from all parts of Bentcn county, at the court house in Covvallia, Tuesday evening, Febru ary 7, I893, tlje following resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas, The division of Benton county stated in tho two bills now pend ing have been sprung upon tho citizens ol Benton county without any previous Investigation or discussion, and with out any opportunity of obtaining the expression of the opinions of the citi zens and voters of the county. There fore be it TiAtnlved: 1st. That tho area of Benton county, being about 30 miles from north to south and 42 miles from east to wont and sparsely populated, ought not to be divided and no portion of tho same should be cut off either od tho west or on the south. 2nd. That we are opposed to any change in the boundary lines of Bon ton county, or to any division of said county whatover. 3rd. That as three-fourths of the voters and taxpayers or this county nrfl onnosed to any division of tho same, that it is the duty of the mem bers of the legislature from thia coun- tv to opposo said division. . 4th." That both bills now pending before the legislature for divisions of this county and providing for the ere ation of Lincoln county on tho west and Blaino county on tho south are detrimental to the best interests of Benton county and should both be de feated. 5th. That our members of the leg islature, Chas. Crosno, Senator, and E.Belk'nap, S. T. Jeffreys, members of the house, are requested to work ana vote against said bills. 6th. That said members or tne legislature were elected to represent Benton county, and it is their sworn duty to protect and guard her inter ests. When they fail to do so they be tray the trust reposed on them and ought to resign. 7th. Besolvcd; That a copy of the resolutions be published in its county papers and sent to each of the mem bers of the legislature. NAVIGATION UNDER DIFFICULTIES. The Hoag reached her dock at this place on time last Sunday morniui;, her principal freight being 35,000 feet of lumber from In dependence. She discharged her cargo and aud started on Op the river, intending to roach Nicholas landing a mile or two this side of . Harrisburg, where a load of wheat awaited her coming. Sueh a trip is 'out of the ordinary for late steamboat navigation, but the Hoag proceeded all right till she reached Cummings', about five miles below her destination. This point proved "a corker," and although several hours of hard labor were spent in the attempt to got through all efforts proved in vain. The river here is ia a sharp bond cut up iulo a maze of ..channels practically useless for navigation and is full of snags. The Hoag was finally obliged to turn about. Her trip was not a truitlees one, however, for she found another 100 ton lot of Wheat she o uld get to, and which she took aboard and brought on down. After loading tons of flour at fisher's mills, the Hoag took her departure for Portland Tuesday morning, carrying quite a number 01 passenger! ior different points below. DEATH OF MISS HERRON. Mies Mary Elizabeth Herron died at the residence of her father, Hugh Herron, near Monroe cn Saturday last, Febrnary 4th 1S22. She wss 22 years years of age on the 28th of last November. The young lady liad been in failing health for some mouths with a pulmonary affection from which she sought relief bv spending last summer in California. All efforts to secure permanent improvement were of no avail, however, and she quietly sank to rest on the'.date staf ed above. The funeral took place at Monroe on Sunday last and was attended by a large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends, Wfth the parents are left three brothers and two sisters to mourn the abscace of their beloved child and sister. Two brothers, R. C. aud C. H. with their cousin J. W, Herron are attending the normal in stitute at Monmouth and came home on the sad mission of attending the funeral of tho dead they all had most dearly loved. They returned to their studies on Tuesday last. LEGISLATIVE SPARKS. Gullixson's bill appropriating $40,000 for uuiforming the militia, passed both houses and coes to the governor, who has said he will veto it. Governor Pennoyer has vetoed the World's fair appropriation bill passed and the assembly may pass it over tho veto. Myers has introduced a mew bill abolish ing the state board of equalization. Upton's bill to repeal the act of the board of railroad commissioners failed to pass, 17 to 34. Ford's bill providing for the foncinjr hf railway tracks is on a fair way to become a law. The people want it and the railroads are not making serious objections to it. The mortgage tax law and indebtedness clause have been repealed by both houses and await the governor's signature. The state agricultural college bill, passed the senate Tuesday. It carries an appropri ation of $26,100 for new buildings, etc., for the college at Corvallis. A bill to prevent cruelty to animals; which contemplates the shooting of tame pigeons at tournaments, ceck-Sghts, etc., has passed the senate. The only Pure Cream of Tartar Powder. No Ammonia; No Alum. - Used ia MillionsTof Homes 40" Yejs the Standard LEGISLATIVE VISITORS. The long expected visit from a consider able body of legislator to the Oregon Agri. onltnral College was at last realized on Sat urday last. A delegation of senators and representatives to the number of about thirty, accompanied by quite a number of ladies, formed the party, who were chape roned by Representative Jeffreys of Benton . . M 1 - A " - 1.1 c unty. fcmt-rgiug irom me ir.nu. mey were mat by President Bloss and Secretary Wallii Nash of the board of regents, and escorted to the college buildings to the music of the college band. After lunch at "Cauthorn hall," the party visited different departments of toe institu tion; witnessed recitations 11 several rooms; admired the works of art and substantial handiwork to be seen iu many places and evinced a lively interest in nil they saw and heard. Some who are allied with the edu cational profession were highly enthusiastic. Later a banquet was served at the "Cau- thoru hall," after which, toasts and responses held sway for some time between several students and a number of senators and representatives which was a complete foa3t of reason and did honor to all cou cerned. The grand culmination cam9 in the even ing at the the colleee chapel which was crowded with people to witness the exer eiscs of tho literary socitites. Following these came speeches by representatives from various sections. Representative Bishop of Portland made the telling speech pf the evening. Representative Daly of Klamath was iu favor of a larger appropriation than had been asked for. but necessary to erect ueeded buildings. Representative Upton, the populist from Curry, the chronic kicker of the House, as usual kicked at most everything except the college and a "horny handed toiler," one of whom he was ! which. . Wilkinson of Lane spoke heartily in favor of aid for the college and Staats, of Polk, openly pledged his vote in- the same direction. The good will universally manifested by all legislators iu their visits from first to last has been a hopeful omen of the result to come, and the fact that the bill appro priating $26,000 has passed the Senate with' out trouble with no opposition in the lower honse in sight, virtually settles the mater in favor of the Oregon Agricutral College. HOW IT BECAME POPULAR, When people find an article much superi or to anything ot the kind they nave ever before used, they are almost sure to tell their friends about it, and especially if they know of some friend needing such an article, Dealers also soon learn the true value of their goods, and when they have an article of unusual merit they will almost invariably mention the fact to their customers. This accounts in a great measure for the large sale of Chamberlain's- Couah Remedy, Here is an instance: W. L. Noedhain, prominent citizofi and business man of Orrs- burg, Mo., has been selling Chamberlain Cough Remedy for sovoral years and recom mends it to his customers, because in his ex perience it has proven to bo the best for colds, croup and whooping oongh. He says it La the most popular medicine that he ban dies, and eives the best satisfaction. 50 cent bottles for aale by T. Graham, drug gist. A CARD.
