Corvallis Times. Official Paper of Benton County. BORVAIXIS, OREGON, APR. 11, 190a. ' HIS FAIR CHALLENGE. " " Resident Roosevelt offers open "battle to the democrats on a fair eld next year. Twice in public address since his t Western ; tour began," he has declared that there is to be no tariff revision until after tiie presidential election, which in terpreted means that there is to be no revision at all by Mr. Roosevelt's party. The utterance is a frank, open challenge.to the. democrats to iight next year's battle on the tar iff issue, and, at a time when the disadvantages to ' the republican position -are most : manifest. It -is the issue upon which the democrat- ic party has survived lor a hundred years, and upon which,; it is stron gest and best united. It is the is sue upon ; which its greatest, tri umphs have , been won. If s the democrats choose to accept the challenge., Mr. Roosevelt will have! to .fight enemies, not only in front but in the rear. There is a great schism in his own party, , and for two years great newspapers and leading statesmen therein ; have been urging a revision of the tariff withi intelligence and determination.. To profess a wish to curb or con trol the trusts and at the same time to demand a high tariff for , these monster organizations of aggregated wealth and watered stock to feed upon, will place Mr. Roosevelt in a -position both inconsistent and inde-. fensible. Until American people can buy American made goods at ; prices as low as they are sold , for ip Europe and elsewhere, trusts and tariffs to enrich trusts, . cannot be successfully defended. . ,Yet , Mr. Roosevelt is frank, fair and open. He offers to fight the democrats on the, very field that they Ought to be most eager to select. MR. HERMANN'S GHOST, x "It seems strange that the' Eu: gene convention should have : turn ed from the bright and blameless v young men offered as candidates, to name Mr. Hermann for congress. Mr.' Hermann is ever a genial per. son, and time was, when he was a , , useful congressman. But a stalk ing ghost follows him now. It points an accusing finger and asks, " constantly, '.'Why, Mr. Hermann, did you quit office under the Roose velt administration?" V . i Apparently, the Eugene dele gation did not see this ghost; yet it is to be reckoned with. Either Sec retary Hitchcock was wrong,' or Mr. Hermann as commissioners was ftwrong. The president retained Mr. Hitchcock, and Mr. Hermann was sent home wearing scar and blemish; i For an Oregon convention under the circumstances to insist on returning hira to Washington, rehabilitated and clothed with new power, is, ; at least, unexpected. More respect would seem to be due the adminis tration. . i . ; BILLS ALLOWED, Clairtfs Ordered Paid at -- JAst Week's ,M drerin of Commissioner's Court.'! i ;t . ' r.? ; - " .

The Times fell into' it ; through the statement of an Independence man I who was in Corvallis. V Iast -' week . JN. wilkins circulated a petition asking the railroad company to grant the service, and secured many signers. The petition was forward ed to ; the company at Portland. In addition, W,; E. Yates, M S Woodcock and H. W. Hall, while in Portland about the same time, called on Manager Koehler and had an hour's conversation with him on the subject of the proposed train service., They urged-with the best reasons they . could command that the better service be extended "Cor vallis. ' : J Mr. Koehler was kind, and ap parently anxious to accommodate. But, he quoted figures without limit, setting forth the expense which the scheme would put his company. The impression that he gave his callers was that the South ern Pacific was hardly likely to put on the train. Mr. Koehler said the easiest and cheapest way for Corvallis- to be served with a morning' and ev ening train was over the C. & ; E. from Albany. . He said he had urged Manager Stone of the C & E. company to put on a morning and evening train, connecting with the seven o'clock local from Albany into Portland. Mr. Koehler ' also indicated that the reply " of Mr. Stone was, that such a train had been operated for a time between Corvallis and Albany, and that it did not pay. ..". . 1 Meantime, Corvallis deserves the morning and, evening train, if not via one, then over the other route. Effort, unitedly arid persistently ap plied by many people, can accom plish wonders. Progress does not come to a town that sits down and waits for it. , If the agitation now 'on is continued, doubtless a way will be found for.securing this train service. Its establishment on a permanent basis, would be one of the very best . things that could happen, to Corvallis.' TO KEEP RECORD NOW. Of JByer? Birth?, Every, Death., and s JBwial Qertificaf es ' of Burial, t ; V f' - " -, ' 1 It U necessary now tot make- offi cial rfcc(rd of every birth and every death. A new law that is already in effect, requires every ; physician, midwife or head of the family to give notice by the end of the month to the county, health, officer of any birth that . occur .under his :; or her charge. Every physician mid- wife or head of a family must give notice to such health officers within 48 hours of every death. No burial can take place until a proper burial certificate has been made out, and transmitted to . the county health officer. , U All these requirements are the result of the act creating .the stateJ board of health, which passed the last legislature. . It ,s contained an emergency clause, and took" effect on its approval by the . governor. It creates a county, aa well as "a state health board. The county board,is - the . county judge and county physician. If there is no countv ohvsicianvas is the case in 1 Benton, then the county judge r is the county board of health as -well as the county health officer. i- To this officermust b e reported "all infectious diseases, deaths, causes thereof, places of burial of every person, s that dies in said county, and in the case of birth V of any child give name of parents, their residence and their occupation. : Power is given the County Boird of Health to quarantine against in fectious diseases in other county or counties of the state, to quarantine any case or cases of infectious dis eases within said county, and to call upon all police officers, sheriffs H and constables'to enforce such quar antine.
