BLUE RIBBON CLUB On last Sabbath, as previously announced in the Gazette, Dr. J. R. Bayley organized a Blue Ribbon Club at Willamette Grange Hall, on Muddy, some ten miles south of Corvallis. Several from the city and a large number from tne surrounding country, congregated at the appointed time. The meeting was called to order by Dr. J. R. Bayley and opened with prayer by Rev. J . S. Reasoner. After which the Doctor delivered a very in teresting address, which was well received. His appeals were irresistible, and carried conviction to the mind of every thinking person. His remarks were eminently prac ticable, and gave evidence of deep thought. He was followed by a few brief remarks by Rev. Mr. Reasoner, and a stirring speech by G. B. Smith, Esq., who, like the Doctor, announced that he was done voting for the whisky ring. Miss Cora Bayley then read that beautiful and touching temperance poem " Go feel what I have felt." After which the pledge was circulated, and fifty two persons enrolled their names as mem bers of the club. On motion, Willamette Blue Ribbon Club was adopted as the name of the organ ization. The following were elected as temporary officers : J. M. Currier, president ; Wm. Randies, secretary. On motion, adjourned to meet at the Grange Hall, next Sabbath, at 3 P. M. RESOLUTION OF THANKS.

On last Saturday the Chinese gra ders, at work in the vicinity of Locke's Gap, mutinied, and for a short time a very lively scene transpired. It seems that this gang is one of the laziest and most insubor dinate on the road, and on that day one of them refused to work, and was discharged by the foreman, when the whole band, some 45 in number, revolted and assaulted the boss Tjjith their shovels. He seized a shovel and retreated, and kept them at bay until the white teamsters came to his rescue and drove them away. In the evening contrac tor Ward visited the camp and discharged the entire gang, and drove them away, en tirely from the works. Mr. Sullivan, the foreman, showed good grit, but unfortunate ly neither he nor the teamsters were armed, and the Chinamen were not punished as they deserved. River Side, July 4. Jewish Sunday School.

They practice daily, and the score of the majority of them is splen did, and Lieut. Farrow intends making them hit a man at 1,000 yards before he gets through with them.

Hume, was on board and stated his intention to touch in here with the Duncan regularly once a month, or oftener if the business should jus tify. Connections will be made with steam ers at Astoria and at Crescent City or Coos Bay. Mr. Hume desires to accommodate the Alsea people, and will enter that Bay if there is produce or freight for that place. Yaquina is quite elated over the prospect and strenuous efforts will be made in aid of this enterprise. Mr. Hume is entitled to great credit for establishing: communication with these neglected bays along the coast, and it becomes the duty of every man to have something to fhip ; let us fill the wharfs with such produce as the county af fords, now that an opportunity is offered by which a market can be reached. The public will be advised fnrther on this subject as soon as rates can be obtained. Columbus Brown, Deputy Collector, was landed by the U. S. revenue cutter, "Tom Corwin," at Foulweather.

Campers are plenty more coming roads splendid. Rialto. Newport, July 14, 1879. ABSCONDED. The Oregonian of last Wednesday says : M. T. Ward, the contractor for the exten sion of the west side railroad, absconded from Independence last Saturday, leaving unpaid bills amounting to between 20,000 and 30,000. Saturday, early in the after noon, he collected SI 1,000 from the compa ny, and told the laborers that their pay was awaiting them. He then hired a buggy and drove out of town. It k supposed that he drove to Albany, as he took the train there for this city Monday afternoon. He proba bly secreted himself over Sunday. After Ward left Independence his clerk, W. H. Bennett, kept the office closed for two hours, and at half-past 4 opened it and com menced paying the men, as they came in, their wages in full. After paying out about 1500 he discovered that his coin was run ning short, and he then paid to each man only forty per cent.. of the wages due. The money was soon exhausted and Bennett was obliged to close the office- He was ar rested after a short time, but gave bonds for his appearance. Fearing personal violence he hid himself, but it is said that his where abouts is known. Intense indignation is felt and expressed against Ward by the 200 men in his employ, and if he is caught, and their wages not paid them, they threaten lynching. They have seized the shovels, picks, scrapers and wheelbarrows. The Chinese in Ward's employ had been secured by the railroad company and will lose noth ing. It is tBought that Ward came to this city Monday night, and that he has gone to the Sound. He has a wife and family .it Tacoma. Telegrams have been sent to The Dalles, Vancouver and Tacoma to intercept him. Since the above was put in type, we learn that Mr. Ward was captured at T.tcoma, on Wednesday. Closed Out. S. Friedman, of Salem, has been up for about ten ukys, and concluded to close out the new I X L store. Mr. Honig, who has been in charge of the busi ness, has shown himself a gentleman, and made many friends, and we regret to see him leave. But Mr. Friedman, after look ing the ground over carefully, has concluded that it is better for him to concentrate his business, so he returned, with goods unsold, by last Tuesday's boat, to Salem. Should times become lively, he may come to Cor vallis again. Mr. Friedman is a great favor ite with the printers, and he has found out that the judicious use of printers' ink is in dispensable in the mercantile business. Long may he wave. Harbor of Refuge. The board of en gineers, consisting of Colonel Stuart, Colo nel Mendell, Colonel Williams, Colonel Gil lespie and Lieutenant Payson, all of the U. S. A., will leave San Francisco on the 17th inst. , by special steamer, and visit all points on the coast as far as the Columbia river, for the purpose of selecting the most eligi ble location for a harbor of refuge. After the site is chosen the board will sail for As toria, and will reach that point about the 1st proximor Fine Wheat. Mr. Isaac Newhouse, who resides 12 miles northwest of this city, has left at our office some fine specimens of wheat, of the blue stem variety, which were raised upon his farm. This wheat is nearly six feet in height, has a very strong stem, with a large and well-filled head, and will yield about 45 bushels per acre. The spec imens were taken at random from a field of 40 acres. Blue kibbon Songs. Every Blue Rib bon Club should lie supplied with the Blue Ribbon Chorus, as used in California and other States.

The undersigned physicians of Albanj', having' seen the apparatus used in Ames process for preserv ing meats, etc., and heard the manner of its use ex plained, together with the chemicals used, will say, that as used, we do r.ot consider there is any danger to the health to be feared, either in operating the ap paratus, or in uslnt the articles preserved. Not hav ing seen a protracted test of the process of presen'a tion by the chemicals, as used in- the manner indicat ed, we will only say that the theory sounds reasona ble, and wc can assign no cause why the process should not prove a success. 3 A.
