Oorvallis. Times. Offldal Paper of Beaton tioutr. VOKYALUS, OREOOIT, ArBII 16, 19. MR. WOODCOCK'S MENAGERIE. Woodcock's newspaper menager ie, with its imported aggregation of stellar editors, one for the political sideshow, one for the main tent, and one for the popular department of tare old plates, still admits the mid night conclave, the job. and victims for the slaughter at the convention next day. Nobody in the show as yet realizes that the admission is damaging to the candidacy of the great and goad "Granger" Yates for senator, but when that well known pillar in the grange (for political purposes) once grasps the situation there will be a rattling of dry bones in the animal cages, and perhaps a denial yet, of the . caucus and its slate. Why not deny? It can be done with safety, and for the sake, of that grand old "granger" (for po litical purposes), whose name is a household word, wherever patrons of husbandry is known, a denial should be made. It was easy for the star performers, under the di rection of the ring master in this famous troupe of acrobats to change the tenor of the sacred resolutions the convention passed and to print them in a form different from that in which they were adopted, and by that change to give them a sense entirely different from that in which they were worked , through the unwilling convention. It was easy for them to falsify the records in one instance, and it will be equally easy in all cases hereafter. A denial can be printed with per fect safety. "The Gazette or its owners are in nowise responsible for anything that may be said in this department." (See sideshow page, Woodcock's circus, April -5th.) When the owner of a news paper publicly proclaims in bold type that he will not father what appears in his paper, why not de ny? If the owner publicly adver tises that the stuff in his paper is unreliable and that the "Gazette or its owners are in nowise respon sible for anything that may be said in this department" then, indeed, it is easy to deny the truth or to tell a lie. Deny? Why, of course deny , heaven and hell and the angels, if necessary to help the cause of the ' great and good "Granger" Yates (for political purposes).

For many years he had exhibited to visitors in Benton county what industry and up-to-date methods can accomplish on an Oregon farm: His home was like a garden spot among the hills. The word welcome seemed to be inscribed" over the gateway. Mr. Wilkinson was a large hearted, public spirited nd truly generous man. No worthy cause appealed to him in vain. .
