Strawberries Are
Ripening
Received First Diploma to
Be Given at O. A. C.
Robert M. (Uncle Bob) Veatch,
fermer state senator and the last
of a family of 16 children, several
of whom were pioneers of 1853,
He
died at 6:25 this forenoon,
had been seriously ill for some
time with an ailment which failed
to yield to medical treatment. The
faneral will be held at 2:30 Friday
afternoon from the H. H. Veatch
home, A. R. Hpearow officiating.
The Masonic lodge will be in
charge of the services at the grave.
Mr. Veatch was born June 5,
1843, in White county, Ill., and was
aged nearly 82 years. His father,
Isaac Veatch, served in the war
of 1812 under Andrew Jackson and
his grandfather, Elias Veatch, in
the Revolutionary war under Wash
ington. He crossed the plains in
1864 and came to Lane county the
following year, this ever after be
ing his home. Mr. Veatch’s life
after reaching Oregon was an active
one. Although his education as a
boy had been meager, he succeeded
in entering Willamette college,
Salem, and was a member of the
first graduating class from Oregon
Agricultural college in 1870, five
years following his arrival in Ore-
gon. He was the first of the class
to receive a diploma and had
planned to attend the approaching
commencement exercises at the col
lege.
Mr. Veatch taught school in Eu
gene, studied law there under J. J.
Walton and was admitted to tho
bar, although he never practiced.
He was married March 14, 1872, to
Miss Hurphina Currin, of Cottage
Grove, who died February 28, 1885.
In polities Mr. Veateh was a
democrat and was elected to the
Oregon assembly upon the ticket
of that party in 1882 and was
reelected in 1884. In 1886 he was
advanced to the senate, being re
elected in 1890. He was appointed
by President Cleveland as the firgt
receiver of the land office at
Roseburg and in 1900 was a
delegate to the democratic national
convention in Kansas City.
Surviving children are H. H.
Veatch and Mrs. J. E. Young, of
this city, and John C. Veateh,
prominent Portland attorney. There
are eight grandchildren, Raymond
Veateh, Eugene; Margaret, Joseph,
Muriel, Katheryn and Lillian Young,
Cottage Grove and Lillian and
John Veatch Jr., Portland, and
scores of other relatives.
Strawberries are beginning to
ripen in this .favored section of the
famous, fertile, fruitful Willamette.
Mrs. Alfred T. Beidler pieked a
few on April 29 and on May 5
had enough to serve. Mrs. James
Plaster served strawberries yester
day. Both live in the Thornton
Corners neighborhood, from which i
section the first berries usually are i
reported.
These berries will continue to
bear until October or November.

Had Disobeyed Orders in Being in
Position to Be Pitched For
ward to Death.
Circus day was marred by the
tragic death of one of the employes
of the Al G. Barnes show. Wesley
Alloway, 692 east Ash avenue, Port
land, was killed instantly under
the wheels of one of the cars of
the show train.
Alloway and a companion were
watching the unloading of the show
and were standing on top of a
wagon which was about to be un
loaded. They did not note that
the signal had been given to move
the train and when the locomotive
moved the train the two men
pitched forward onto a flatcar
ahead of them.
Alloway ’ b eom-
panion slaved himself but Alloway
rolled between the two cars and
onto the rails and the wheels passed
over his abdomen, cutting the body
in two.
Alloway was employed as a dish
washer and was aged 16 years.
A large number of the citizens
of the city, who had gathered to
watch the circus unload, were wit
nesses of the tragedy.
Alloway had been with the show
company bnt a few days and Mr.
Barnes stated that he had diso-
beyed strict orders by being any-
where on the train.
The body was shipped to Port
land where the funeral will be
held tomorrow.

Prominent Pioneer and Legislator
B.
Dennis Visits Quicksilver
Mines and Talks Upon Leg
islative Matters.
The Oregon senate is to blame
for the fact that an effort is being
made to invoke the referendum
upon the bus and truck tax law of
the recent session, in the opinion
of W. B. Dennis, of Carlton,
highway legislative encyclopedia,
who was a visitor thiB week at
his Black Butte quicksilver mining
property.
Mr. Dennis was a member of the
special roads and highways com
mittee
appointed by Governor
Pieree which reported at the reeent
session. Mr. Dennis was at the
state eapitol during most of the
session and took a prominent part
in drafting the bus and truck tax-
ing bill that originated in the
house committee.
According to
Dennis, had the senate left
rates provided in the house
there would have been no effort
to refer, but when the senate
doubled the rates of the house bill
the referendum was invited. Dennis
is not, howover, upholding the at
tempt to refer.
Dennis is of the opinion that the
governor ax-ted unwisely in vetoing
the special election bill, thereby
further inviting, the attempt to
invoke the referendum.
Dennis is encouraged by the up
ward trend in the price of quick
silver and expressed the opinion
that a slight further advance would
warrant the resumption of opera
tions at the Black Butte mines.

A feature of the meeting was an
address by Corporation Commission

have been handled and who eneour-
aged stockholders to believe that
they have made a safe investment.

the oil company guaranteed to
bring in a well or refund the price
paid for stock having expired, it
was announced at the meeting that

est upon their investment.
No
one at the meeting made a demand
for a fulfillment of the guaranty.
The stockholders voted to in
crease the price of shares to non-
atoekholders to 50 per cent above
the price to stockholders.

Harvests 1»24 Potato Crop.
London,
May 5.—(Hpeeial.)—
J. E. Banton has just completed
harvesting his last year ’» potato
crop. He did not let this work
wait because of a disinclination
towards work, but because the
ground upon whieh the potatoes
grew, being so low, became so wet
by the time the potatoes had ma
tured that it was impeasihle to get
upon it to dig the tubers and the
ground has only recently dried out.

STEPPING ON OUR CORNS.
Even preachers are not exempt
from the necessity of treading
lightly or not at all upon the toes
of those from whom the dollars
come. That is a startling state
ment that was made Sunday eve
ning by A. Raiph Bpcarow, pole-
vaulting Presbyterian pastor, whose
resignation recently was accepted.
The statement is startling, not
so much because of expressing a
new idea as because expressed by
one who has been recognized as a
successful preacher.
Hpearow was not singling out
his own church ns the object of
hie remarks, nor the churches of
Cottage Grove. Tho remarks were
meant to apply to churches every
where.
If preachers find it necessary to
omit to say things that they often
would like to say, few of us are
in a position to criticize.
The
criticism of preachers because they
often do not dare to speak their
own minds is equally true in every
other walk of life.
The business man keeps to him
self things that he would like to
"ay—things that he believes really
should be said—because he doean’t
care to offend a customer.
Ho
feels reasonably certain that should
he speak his mind his competitor
would take advantage of the ill
will created, even though that com
petitor might think the same thing
but had the good judgment to keep
his mouth shut.
The public official who is also
in business, and may be giving
valuable time without coat to his
community, suffers in a business
way every time he exercises his
judgment in a manner to offend
someone; therefore he often lets
his judgment as a public official
be influenced, perhaps unwittingly,
by what will be the results to his
business. As a public official he
must eome out in the open, while
his cometitor keeps his month shut,
although his opinion may be the
same, and reaps the begefit of
discretion. Incidentally that is the
main reason why it is so hard to
get business me« to accept public
office—and why there is so much
dissatisfaction with the things our
public officials do. It is no an-
eommon thing to hear some dis
satisfied person say that some per
son who has offended by his act
as a public official will get no
more of his business, while the
person getting the business may get
it merely by keeping his opinions
to himself.
And even preachers must think
of the almighty dollar. They get
so few of them that it would seem
to be useless to worry about them.
Anyway this is something that
can not be charged to a new age.
Thia condition always has existed.
If anything we are a trifle more
liberal, a trifle more charitable
than we used to be.
Nor should we greatly blame the
preachers who are subject to Hpear-
ow's criticism. They aie merely
doing what we make it necessary
for them to do in order that they
may carry forward the great work
in which they are engaged, in
which they accomplish much de
spite the many obstacles placed in
their way.
If any of us feel that we could
do better, there are plenty of
preaching jobs for us.
A Virginia man has secured a
wife through a poem he wrote.
Writing poetry never did appeal
to us as a manly form of exercise
and, so far as we are concerned,
the man who employes his time
that way can take tho conse
quences.
All Are Kids IK hen
Circus Comes
There are no grown up folks
when the circus comes to town.
Schools in the eity and in the
rural districts were dismissed Tues
day afternoon in order that the
pupils might attend the Al G.
Barnes show, which was here that
day.
Mins Vera Kimball, teacher in
the Cedars district, treated her 14
pupils to tickets. In the eity a
friend of the kiddies, although he
has none of bis own, furnished
tickets for a number whom he
thought might not otherwise be able
to attend.
The kiddies do not
know the name of their benefactor. 1
The street* of the eity were I
crowded throughout the day and j
the mercantile establishments did n I
large business. A number bad put
on a special sale for the day.
Many of the children between
the ages of 6 and 60 were at the ;
station to watch the unloading of
the big show in the forenoon and
to watch it reload after the eve
ning’s performance.
NUMBER Gl
Street Improvements Walt Action
of Voters Upon Proposed
$3,000 Bond Issue.
Next Tuesday is the day for the
special election to vote upon an
issue of $25,000 in bonds for the
erection of a water storage reser
voir and upon an issue of $3,000 in
bonds for paving street intersection.
The need of the water storage
reservoir is apparent to all patrons
of the water system, and it is an
ticipated that there will be little
opposition to the issue. It is pro
posed to build a resorvoir that will
store a million gallons. With such
a reservoir the water that is now
wasted during the hours that the
water demand is low would be
stored for the hours of peak use.
The present reservoir is inadequate
for the .dry seasons of the year.
In ease the bonds are voted, con-
atruction work will be rushed in an
effort to get the reservoir ready
for use this fall.
The demand for street improve
ments has been so great this yonr
that the eitv is short of funds with
which to pave the street intersec
tions and somo street improvements
will have to be carried over to next
year unless the $3,000 bond Issue
is authorized.
The $25,000 issue will be a charge
against tho water fund and will be
paid from tho profits of the opera
tion of tho water system. Tho
$3,000 bond issue will be paid by
future levies made for the general
street fund.
WATER USERS MUST PAY
Tardy Ones Will Bo Disconnected
From City System.
Water users who do not promptly
meet their rental payments will
be disconnected from tho water
system, according to orders which
have been issued by tho water
committee of the city council, A
charge of 50 cents is to be made
for cutting tho water on again,
AU those wishing to use city
water wiU be required to make
application therefor, This applies
to those now receiving water as
well as to new patrons. A penalty
is to bo provided for those who
