CORVALLIS, OREGON,
"TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 28,
1907
Mayor Lane.
It will be short-sightedness, if,
In the municipal election in Port
land next Monday, Dr. Harry Lane
is not re-elected mayor. Whether
or not he will be, is another ques
tion. The public is not prone to
give deserved reward to faithful of
ficials. That is the reason why the
best men so infrequently accept
public place. The good things of
ficials do is mostly forgotten. That
in turn is a reason for such men as
Schmitz and others of his type. It
is a reason public trusts are prosti
tuted as private snaps and the peo
ple plundered unmercifully and un
reservedly. It is the explanation
of how it is that bribers find their
unholy enterprises easy, and why
they are able to enrich themselves
out of public franchises that they
obtain for a song through corrup
tive processes. When a public of
ficial is loyal to his people he
should be re-elected. That is ac
knowledgment of fidelity and faith
ful service. It is notice to the best
men that public office is not a thing
to be shunned like a contagion. It
is a signal that if faithful service is
given, it will be recognized and re
roar!v1 That is what ought to
haoDen to Mayor Lane, for nobody,
not even his opponents in the very
heat of the campaign even hint that
he has been other than an excellent
and most honorable mayor.
Judge McFadden.
Governor Chamberlain has done
'many wise things. His appoint
ments to office are notable for their
. fine discrimination. He has been
applauded alike by political friends
and foes for his unvarying good
judgment in his use of the appoin
tive power. His appointees have
been and are universally men who
have reflected unquestioned credit
on his administration. His selec
tion in the case of the new district
attorneyship for the second judicial
district is full and complete vindi
cation of his record. judge Mc
Fadden is all in ability, in high
character and in good American
erit that a district attorney ought
to be. He is a clean man and a re
doubtable exponent of public order,
He will be an official to whom by
reason of his known reputation, the
people will look for a vigorous ad
ministration of the law, and they
will not be dissappointed. Govern
or Chamberlain and the people are
to be congratulated on the appoint
ment.
The Boise Talesmen.
The talesmen up at Boise are re
sorting to every sort of subterfuge
to escape iury duty. They did it
in the Reuf case at San Francisco,
and are doing it in the Schmitz
trial. They do not want to serve
because of the interminable length
to which trials have come to be
drawn out. A dozen weeks in the
Thaw case, eight weeks to merely
get a jury in the Reuf case, and the
prospect of unlimited weeks of con
finement in the great trial &t Boise
are experiences men worth while
and with things to do in the world
do not turn to with pleasant anticl
pption. And the confessions of ig
norance, stupidity and colorless
opinion that men must make to be
considered as suitable for jury duty
in a ereat trial are . such that many
men would rather plead guilty to
horse-stealing than make them.
Who Will?
One drinking fountain" has been
donated to the city of Corvallis. It
is on the public school block, and
was given by S. L. Kline. There
oueht to be others. A stream of
- beautiful water gushes from an on
sijrhtlv hvdrant at the corner of
. o , .
Jefferson and Second. It is the on
ly spot on the main thoroughfare
of the town where there is evidence
that Corvallis has the best moun
tain water in the state, pure and
crystal trom the snows of Marys
Peak. Won't some of our well-to-
do citizens give fountains to the
citv? What is money for, if it
isn't to do good with?
KNOCKED PORTLAND SILLY.
With big Demand for Gold and Silver (
Caps' and Medals Corvallis
did it.
Corvallis knocked Portland out
of the water Satui day. It happen
ed this way. Next Saturday, the
college students give a high school
track and field meet. Twenty sev
en medals, 14 gold and 13 silver,
are wanted for that. Also two sil
ver cups. On the 7th and 8th in-
st. , the town is to give a great live
stock show, and 50 silver cups are
wanted as prizes tor that.
iS. W. S. Pratt was commissioned
by the college students as minister
plenipotentiary and envoy extraor
dinary to make the purchase of
their medals and cups. 20 in all.
Mr. Pratt fas also commissioned as
grand purchasing sachem and am
bassador saleratus to make the
purchases of the cups for the live
stock -show, 50 in all. The whole
business meant nearly a trainload
of gold and silver, possibly a. little
less, fashioned into cups and med
als; at least, that is what the Port
land dealers seemed to think about
it when' envoy extraordinary and
Ambassador Salaratus Pratt ap
peared before them and read his
requisitions in duplicate, triplicate
and otherwise.
Figuratively speaking, the fact is
tnat t je Portlanders went straight
up at the Corvallis man's modest
request. "Did he think they were
exclusively in the business of run
ning a world's depot of silver cups
and gold medals?" was their ejacu
lations. The . reply was, that he
didn't know what kind of a depot
they were running but that Corval
lis is a dry town and has turned its
attention from spirits fermenti to
silver cups and gold and silver
medals, and that he wanted 79 in
all, that he had the money to pay
for them, aggregating in all. some
thing less than $1,000.
The result of the trip is that the
Portland silver cup supply is ex
hausted, and the ambassador sa:
eratus got home with but ten cups
The other 42 are being made Under
a rush order, and will be in Corval
lis in due time, which will be in
good season for the events for
which they are required. He
brought back only a part of the re
quired medals, but the rest will be
here before next Saturday, which is
the date when they are to be
awarded to the visiting athletes,
All the cups and medals that he
brought home are on exhibition in
Mr. Pratt's show window, and they
are a pretty sight to see

JUDGE McFADDEN NAMED.
To the New District Attorneyship by
Governor Chamberlain.
Judge McFadden of Corvallis
has been named for the new district
attotneysbip of the second judicial
district. The appointment was
made yesterday by Governor
Chamberlain under authority of a
law passed by the last legislature,
creating the office. The new law
provides that the appointee shall be
a resident of either Lane, Lincoln
or Benton, and that his official
duties shall pertain to those coun
ties. He occupies, in fact, the same
relation as does the new judgeship
to the district. The " office carries
a salary of $2,500 a year, and it is
provided that an elective encum
bent shall be named at the next
election. Judge McFadden' s com
mission arrived this morning, and
he will enter at once upon the dis
charge of his duties. He will
serve unni nis successor is eiecxea
and qualified nearly . two years
hence. v.v.
The appointment is one of the
best that could havo, been made.
It brings to the position a man of
splendid ability, and a fighting na
ture that means that there will be a
vigorous administration of the
duties. The appointee came to
Coivallis when little niore than a
boy in the early seventies. He
was without "means beyond his re
sources as a newly admitted law
yer, but with that as an asset he
has successfully fought the battle
of life in this community for more
than a third of a century. He has
attained a state-wide reputation as a
criminal lawyer, and deserves the
fame. His appointment is well re
ceived and heartily commended in
his hometown.
MANY ATTENDED.
Residents of Southern Benton
Dis-
' cnssed School Affairs.
It was a fine meeting of school
patrons held at Bellfountain last
Saturday. A large crowd assem
bled for the day's festivities. The
program was full of interest from
the beginning to the end. Mrs. J
H. Edwards had charge of the
musical features. The vocal duett
by Mrs. Edwards and E. H. Bel
knap and the solos of Wilbur Starr,
Miss Dean and Mr. Dean were ex
celient. A snort literary program
was rendered. J. H. Edwards,
chose for his subject, "The Labor
er is Worthy of his Hire " The
speaker showed the present condi
tions, and the demand upon each
citizen caused by the same. He
showed how the intelligence of the
individual citizen had rendered him
fit to face the present conditions
and solve them successfully. Rev.
Feese took as his theme the "Home
Life..' ' The speaker eloquently
and classically portrayed the scenes
and responsibilities of the present
generation. . With flowery lan
guage, with excellent feeling he
brought the home close to the
hearts of all present. This was
mastertul ettort. Mr. eese was
congratulated by everyone on his
effort. Prof. Sweetzer, of the State
University, spoke on the Boys and
Girls and completely won the hearts
of his hearers With his love, sym
pathy and earnestness he pleaded
for the parents to pay more atten-1
tionto their children. Sacrifice
wealth, position, yes everything if
need be, for your boy or girl," he
pleaded. E. H. Belknap snowed
the greatness of the age and the
need of the hour. He condemned
the shortened method pursued by
some to secure a commercial educa
tion. The best is not too good
for the humblest children," he
urged.
Sup t. Denman gave a short talk
on the Jbair. .tie urged the south
ern part of the county to look well
after their past laurels. He im
pressed them with the reputation
they held for educational advan
tages and standard. He said if you
are not represented in a creditable
manner you will be ashamed when
you admire the exhibits from other
districts. The basket dinner was
pronounced by Rev. Feese to be
the best he ever attempted to van
quish. Prof . , Sweetzer was also
unable to make his address imme
diately after dinner. In compli
menting tne ladies he said he was
like the news boy after one of the
famous newsboys' dinner who on
being urged to eat more, said,
work my jaws although I cannot
swallow." ; It was one of the best
efforts ofthe good women of Bell
fountain .

uation exercises and a parents
