CORVALLIS, OREGON,
FRIDAY EVENING, JAN. 11, 1907
Mr. Teal.
A no'.able address at the Albany
Shippers convention was by Joseph
T N. Teal. He is a Portland lawyer
who diverged enough from the du
ties of a crowded legal business to
become interested in the ethics of
transportation. Those who heard
his address at Albany know he is a
master of the subject. There is
perhaps heredity in it, for his
father took the first steamboat up
the Willamette to the city of Eu
gene. He was the late Joseph
Teal, one of the prominent figures
in early Oregon, and well known
to all pioneers. He was a factor
in the Willamette River Transpor
tation Company, which ran a line
of steamers on the Willamette for
years. The maternal side of the
house was one of the Lane county
Colemans, a woman of noble and
. substantial character, still living in
Portland. One of the sons is Ben
Teal a brilliant man who stands in
the foreground among the dramatic
managers in New York.
Incidentally, men , of the Teal
type are of highest value to a state.
Their mentality gives them an ex
tended horizon. They see the light
and are broad enough to help show
it to others. They have grasp on
the rights and hopes of men and
willing to make a struggle - for the
good of all. Mr. Teal has spent
generously of time and money in
efforts at alleviation of transporta
tion conditions. He has twice at-
' tended the - Rivers and Harbors
congress, and the last time he and
Governor Chamberlain" made the
principal addresses. He, more
than any other man, has led in the
fight for opening the upper Colum
bia to an unfettered traffic.
In the Albany speech, he struck
blows right and left in behalf of an
open and free Willamette. He is the
type of man that, for the sake of
communities, the regret is, that
there are not more. -
Mr. Teals subject at Albany was
' 'Transportation , Conditions' ' and
his theme the advocacy of a rail
road commission. His knowledge
ot the subject is complete, and his
presentation masterful. The right
of the state to actually fix rates
and the necessity for the i state to
either control the railroads or be
controlled was established. The
clearly defined attitude of the courts
in authorizing regulation was made
plain and the urgency for the citi
zen to enter upon that function was
made vividly apparent.,. The ad
dress left no doubt among those
who heard it, the urgency and the
efficiency of such a commission as
. Mr. Teal proposes. 1
Merchants Carnival. .
Addison waxed most , entbusias
tic oyer the Carnival Venice and so
will every one who attends ; the
Merchants carnival at the ; opera
house next Monday an I Tuesday
evenings.
Corvallis has a state wide repu
tation for the beauty of its ladies
therefore when anything is under
taken where forty five of them are
sutably represent the myriad sorts
of wares earned by the local mer
chants. The beauty color and ar
tistic arrangement will be one that
conld only be treated in the sup
erlative Every feature will be new and
original consisting of brilliant and
wonderful electrical displays . pan
tomimic features that are "really
funny'', laughable situations .strik
ing representations, little girls in
Delsarte and many other features
equally meritorous.
The price has been made very low
in order that all may attend ''both
nights and the seat sale opens Sat
urday morning at Graham & Wor
thams drug store and it might be
well to suggest that all those who
desire choise seats should get in
line early as the advance sale will
no doubt be heavy." Admission 25
and 35 cents. Remember the time
and the place Opera House Monday
