LOCAL LORE. THE FIRST GUN. HEWS OF CORVALLIS AND VICINITY TOLD IN BRIEF. In Republican State Campaign It was Fired at Corvallis Tuesday. The Comings and Goings of People Social Gossip, Personal Men-, tion and Other Items Public Interest. of ONE SUIT WITHDRAWN ' .Other to be Heard Tomorrow Jerry Henkle and Water Committee Agree. One of the iniunction suits brought against the mountain wat er system -is to be dismissed. It is -the one in which Jerry Henkle of Philomath, is the plaintiff, and -which will on the motion of Mr. HenkJe's attorneys be dismissed without cost to either, party. Pa spers to this effect were signed by Mr. Henkle at a special meeting of the Water Board held in the coun--cil chamber Tuesday evening. The withdrawal of the suit is the -result of a compromise between Mr. Henkle and the Water Board. Ne gotiations between the plaintiff and the sub-committee of the Board be : gan several days ago, whenthesub committee journeyed to Philomath and tendered Mr. Henkle $700 in cash as payment for such damages as he would sustain by the removal of such water from Rock Creek. The '-:3noney, which was in currency, was laid down on the counter in Mr. Henkle' s store. The reply 01 Mr. Henkle was ;that he was acting under the di rection ot his attorneys, and that he would not accept without consulta tion with them. That was on Sat urday, and on Monday Mr. Henkle 'visited Corvallis. He discussed the matter with various members -of the Water Board. He returned home and on Tuesday, notified the sub-committee of ' his -determination to accept, and to have the papers ready to be signed the same evening. After the papers were all signed. Mr, Henkle m-ide a siatement be -fore the committee saving that the sum was totally inadequate to pay the damages he will actually sus tain by removal of the water. He felt the water system, however to be of inestimable vilue not only to Corvallis but to Philomath. He felt that it would be wrong to take -any action that would withhold this water from the people of Cor 'vallis. .Therefore, he has made a For Sale. A few ton of good Vetch Hay. F. t,. Howe.

YATES, Police Judge, The republican state campaign opened at CoTvallis Tuesday night, wilh an unusually large demonstra tion.. It was one of the largest political meetings that has been held in Corvallis in several years. Many of the state candidates of the republican party were present, and several of them made addresses. The chief speaker of course, was Dr. Withycombe. for the launching of whose campaign the meeting was especially planned. The presiding officer was Mr. Westgate, the .ac complished editor of the Albany Herald, and state chairman of the party. Decorations of very fine artistic mould, with Cecil Cathey as the artist, was a-feature pf more than passing importance. The numerical feature pf the attendance was not less conspicuous, : all the extra c airs provided being filled, with standing room still at a pre mium. Many ladies and college boys and girls were in the audience College yells, called .for, by the chairman, added interest to the proceedings. The firing of anvils and music by the OAC; cadet regi mental band heralded the meeting, and music by a quartette composed of Messrs Fulton,. Cathey, Allen and Johnson was a feature of the programme. On the platform were many states men, local and otherwise. Among those from abroad, beside the speakers were State Superintend ent Ackerman, Judge Eakin of Eastern Oregon. Editor Hofer of ths Salem Capital Journal, besides many Albany and Independence republicans. The Albany, Salem, Independence and Dallas people were brought by special trains, which carried their passengers home after, the meeting. Very few re mained overuniil morning, but.ot course it was not because Corvallis is a dry town, the visitors being republicans. Among local citizens on the platform were Hon. G. A. Waggoner, Rev. T. T. Vincent, Hon. S. L. Kline and Hon. J. O. Wilson. The chief address of the evening was by Dr. Withycombe. At tha request of the chairman, the audi ence stood and gave three cheers for Dr. Withycombe and the whole republican ticket as the gubernator ial candidate was introduced. It was a very pretty reception to Dr Withycombe, as well as the other state candidates present. Speeches were also made by Mr. Mulkey. the short term candidate for senator, who declared that his father and grandfather were origin al Benton county people and that when he was receiving the election returns he tu ned first to see if Mulkey had been given a good vote in Benton. His speech was reple-e with witty remarks, but it had the misfortune of being too long and many left the room before and im mediately after he concluded. The other speakers were Frank W. Ben son of Roseburg, candidate for sec retary of state, and Mr. Hoff, nom inee for labor commissioner. The meeting from all standpoints w.s very creditable, and Bert John son, George Denman, and the other local leaders who planned it are en titled to the thanks of their party, personal sacrifice, and has accepted in his opinion, a sum less by $1,000 or more than he would actually be damaged. This sacrifice, however, he felt willing to make for the bene fit of the people of the two towns concerned. ' It is to be added, that from the first, Mr. Henkle has sought to settle by negotiation, rather than by suit, the differences between him and the committee. He began sev eral months ago to ask for offers from the Board, and by other means endeavored to avoid litigation. His relations with the members of the committee all along have been cor- j dial, and it was not unfil after ,a long period of waiting that he fin ally brought suit, and not then un til advised to do so by his attorneys. There is not the slightest doubt that in accepting the offer of $700 from the committee, Mr., Henkle believes firmly that he has made a large sacrifice in the interest of tne people of Philomath and Corvallis. Argument on the Farra ipjunc tion is to be heard by Judge Harris at Eugene tomorrow. The Coming Horse Show It is np to the farmers now to show what they will do for the coming horse show to be held in Cor vallist jane 1st. Tbecommittee in charge at a considerable sacrifice of time and business interests have completed all preliminary arrange ments, and the business men have contributed freely toward the ex penses of the show. It remains for the farmeis iq enter their horses and colts in competition for the various ptemiums offered in the pamphlets which will be distributed within a day or two. - We believe the farmers will at tend thoroughly to their end of the business. Any farmer who is not interested in good horses this spring when it takes a millionaire to buy one must be slow indeed. A mag nificent showing of horses and colts can be furnished by Benton and ad joining counties and not one good one should be left out. Entries can be made with Grant Elein. secre tary, May 16th to 31st. In addition to the interest dis played by Benton countv horsemen it is understood that I,inn county will be well represented here. Clydesdales will be shown from the breeding farm of Hulburt and Mil ler, and I. Oeling. Mr. Miller of Albany, has announced his in tention ot entering a ; number of Morgan colts, which expert judges report as very fine and there are rumors of many, others competing; About the only criticism that the committee has had' to meet, is on account of, confining the show to horses only. Many .farmers would like to include sheep, cattle and other stock. This seemed im practicable at present on account of the expense of securing grounds, buildings, sheds, etc. If sufficient interest is shown by .the farmers to warrant the expense a project is now under consideration to broaden the scope of the show another sea son and include all farm animals.
