CORVALLIS, OR, MAY 24, 1905.
DOWN AT ALBANY.
When cur Boys get prank There
, Do They Have.Jreedom of the
. Gty.
It is only eossip, but it may be
told here. Since the state author
ities- so severely shook up those
who tried to turn an honest penny
by trading in wet goods, it hae
been awfully hard, if not wholly
impossible to get tarantular juice
in Corvallis. Only the dearest,
Sparest friend will trust a drop or
two of the "crayther" to another,
and sometimes even this is not done
The blind pig business did not pay
The current report is that Jake
charged steep prices for the
stuff he sold, but it totfk a lot to
make up the $50 that his fine cost
him. Besides there is the govern
ment yet to settle with, possibly,
for it is certain that Jake had no
government license. All that stands
between him and stiff trouble with
Uncle Sam is the fact that perhaps,
since this is the . first offense, no
one is disposed to report his doings
to government authorities. The
fact that he pleaded guilty and the
fact that there was lots of good
fitrone' evidence to convict him or
he wouldn't have pleaded guilty,
puts him in bad shape in case the
internal revenue officers hunt for
Jacob.
And as Jacob is now, so all others
who dare to sell tarantular may be
hereafter. Its a dreadfully shaky
business, for in the sanctum sanct
rum of the district attorney's
office, where a witness is put under
' 'oath and subjected to a searching
inquisition, it is simply impossible
lor the secret of illicit- traffic in
. booze to be kept hidden. If, under
oath there, a witness makes false
statements, perjury stares him in
' the face, and few men care to per'
jure themselves to save a man who
is making a business of violating
. the law in an effort to cheat the
- community. Indeed, the man who
does at,, stands an excellent show
of getting into the penitentiary,, for
the laws are severe with respect to
perjury committed under such con
dftions. - With all of this staring

authorities bent upon a strict en
forcement of the law, men hesitate
to deal in the "crayther." It
hazardous in the extreme, for as a
matter of fact, if the business is
conducted in a small town like
Corvallis, it is practically certain
to be discovered, and when discov
ered it comes high, that's all.
--Accordingly, many a tnroat is
' parched, and many a tongue dry,

queer and . made people so drunk
can't be boueht any more. So the
brethren must eithersend abroad for
looze or eo abroad after it. And
'his is where the gossip comes in,
The story is told as a fact, but like
many an alleged fact, it may be an
error. They say that when the
r oys go down to Albany for ; a
' ime the authorities there, out of
of respect to the hardships and
trials the Coryallisites have to en
".ure as to booze, give them the
freedom of the city. These author
ities, so the story goes, reck not if
our own and only boys under ; the
inspiration of good old tarantular
lo a few of thvse stunts that are
invasion of the peace and dignity
of the municipality of Albany. In
stead of thrusting our boys in jail
'" with a cold and heartless thrust,
the tale goes on to the effect that
beds areound for them, and care
taken that none shall pay a fine or
be afraid. It is a fond and i frisky
sort of a welcome that our boys are
said to appreciate ... from the bottom
of their long suffering hearts. :
, Such is the story, but whether
it is all true or not is something
the reader will have to find out for
. 1 r . ii.2 1
mmseu, rnougn 11 is positively
, asserted that last Saturday night
five of our boys, limber and lushful
with tarantular, were taken to bed
at one time by one police officer in
Albany.
Big .Hook Tore out of Log and Struck
Him on the Head Unconscious
. , .... for Hours. i
Bark Price;a well knowiw Ben
ton countyt3tizen, . met with a ser
ious accident Friday noon, and as a
result is lying in much pain in his
logging camp two miles up the riv
er from Hoskins. Ir. Piice has
maintained a logging camp in the
vicinity for a year or two. A donkey
engine with wire cable is used in
the logging process. What the
loggers call a "swamp hook" had
been attacned to a huge log, and
the engine was pulling. The cabky
was under terrible tension. Mir.
Price had got behind a stump as a
precaution against accident. Sud
denly, the big hook slipped and
with a terrible . recoil under the
heavy strain it struck against the
stump. The hook swung round,
and though the force of the blow
had been largely countered In the
blow against the stump, it struck
Mr. Price with sufficient force in
the back of the head as to render
him unconscious. He remained
unconscious until next morning,
and for a day or. two was unable to
speak. A wound in the : back of
the head and another in the side of
the head are visible injuries. At
last accounts he was , improving,
though when asked as to pain, he
had a habit ot putting his hand on
his left breast as though he had
sustained internal injury there. Ac
cording to a phone message to the
Times yesterday, there was much
solicitude in the valley as to his
condition. Dr. Pernot, of Corval
lis was called in the case. 7- '

The Rose Fair, held in 'Miller's
hall Saturday by the Presbyterian
ladies, was in every way a success,
There were roses of every size,
color and variety, and the display
was one of the prettiest ever seen
in Corvallis. .The hours were from
5 to 9, and that the affair received
most liberal patronage is proven by
the jreceipts which amounted to $64.
Ten cents was the pries' of admis
sion to. the show,.a.nd,luncheohwas
served for 15 cents.
The exhibits were : divided into
six classes, and the prizes were paid
in cash. Twenty two exhibitors
entered choice specimens from their
gardens, with the following results:
First prize, on eight named var
ities of roses, Mrs. Rose Selling;
second prize, Mrs. Tedrow.

A pleasing event in the closing
hour of the show, was the return
to the Pfesdyterian ladies, of , four
of the cash, prizes that had f been
awarded the exhibitors. This free
will offering came as a surprise,
and was heartily appreciated by
the ladies who managed the affair.
At the Methodist" church Sun-1
day evening, the pastor : made a
brief reference to the - late city el
ection. He said he did not wish to
be presumptuous and did hot care
to dictate as to what should be done
in city matters. .r There are some
things that concern all, and espec
ially those on the watch tower to
nota passing conditions : and ev
ents. :- ', -A
most noticeable feature ' ob
servable in the late contest seemed
to be that representative "citizens
generally were anxious that good
men, regardless of party . politics,
should be elected. . It is a good
sign that in municipal elections no
party spirit should be displayed,
but that, good, V clean, progressive
government should be the domin
ant motive, t , i:s''"
It seemed that ; representative
citizens generally desire -the new
order of things maintained in Cor
vallis. The liquor - interests in
Portland in a letter by one of their
officials recently, gave it out that
the saloon interests must stand to
gether, regardless of politics, and
know their candidates to be on the
safe side before a vote be cast for
them. In Corvallis it seemed to be
the view that the interests opposed
to the liqutr traffic take ; a " similar
view and the desire is to keep the
issue clearly drawn and - fight it
squarely and fairly on its own mer
its and demerits. -' A
Rev. Feese referred to the con
tinuance of saloon fronts - on some
of the buildings formerly occupied
as saloons in Corvallis, " and
said the people ot Benton county
must see to it that the day of: sa
loon in this shire is passed forever.
Some prominent business men, Rev
Feese said, "who were opposed in
the beginning to local option are
now in favcr of it because of Jthe
better business conditions that have
resulted. Rev. Feese commended
the effort of Deputy District Attor
ney Bryson for- what he had so far
done in enforcing the law, and ap
pealed to the people to stand be
hind Mr. Bryson and aid. him in
further efforts he may make in that
direction. " r -vy :
