THE DUTY CFTHE HOUR.
During our absence from the State,
for the past two months, we note
come very important changes in rail
road matters. It rejoices our heart
to learn that so many new railroad
projects, throughout the State, are
already inaugnra'ed, with a reasona
ble probability of successful comple
tion at an early day. We have no
fear of Oregon getting too many out
lets tor her produce or loo much com
petition in transportion. The more
the better. But, while flushed with
the certainty of prosperity that now
awaits our Slate, consequently upon
internal improvements, the citizens of
Benton and adjoining counties should
not forget that Yaquina Bay is the
natural outlet of Central and Eastern
Oregon, and that the early comp'.e
tion of the Willamette Valley and
Coast railroad from Corvallis to the
Bay. is one" of the most important
steps in this matter. Were this short
Jine of road in operation, as it should
be, an appropriation, by Congress,
for the removal of obstructions at
the entrance of this bay, would be
easily and readily obtained. No one
acquainted with the advantages and
capabilities of this harbor will doubt
this assertion for a moment. In view
of this fact, the all important duty
of he citizens of Benton and adjoin
instettaties is to take immediate
steps for for completing the grading,
bridging, etc., and laying thf iron on
the first ten mile section of this road.
It can be done with very little exer
tion and small outlay of cacilal.
Will we dojt?
Now is tie time to organize for its
successtijpomp!etion. ll is now
prettySetlain that an appropriation
will be brained lor the improvement

Our Senators and
Congress cannot
an important mat
fwe a duty to their
this matter which
or evade. All
eyes are now uporlhem, and every
word thgy trMer, or move they make,
is scrutinized by a constituency who
are read v to award to them the meed
raise tbey deserve. Instead of
they cannot shirk
heeding the prayers of this constitu
ency should they yield to the outside
pressures that are being brought to
bear upon them by monied interests
and grinding monopolies, it will be a
nail in their political coffin, and rivet
chains upon all portions of our State
that will take long years to remove.
Let them beware of outside influences
and misrepresentations.
We refer, in another column, to
the fact that'the desire for an appro
priation by Congress lor the im
provement of Yaquina Bay is not
confined to Benton county, or o?ie
local paper, and give quotation from
several papers to that effect. In ad
dition to the papers mentioned, the
following, in different portions of the
State, are outspoken in favor of such
appropriation, but want of space
prevents us from making further ex
tracts at present : The Portland Tel
egram, Willamette Farmer, Salem
Statesman, Salem Daily Talk, Eugene
Guild and Journal, Albany Demo
crat Register and Herald, Dallas
Itemizer, Philomath Crucible, Junc
tion Republican, Benton Blade, and
nearly every other paper in the Wil
lamette valley that amounts to any
thing. With such a backing from
the press ot the State, our Senators
and Representative in Congress can
not, and will not fail to do their duty
in this matter, and use all their influ
ence to secure a suitable appropria
tion for the improvement of Yaquina
Bay at the present session of Congress.
REWARDCF MERIT.
Eu of Gazette: Custom has made
it almost impossible for a public ser
vant to obtain the commendati in
of the opposite party, no matter how
much justice there might be in such
action. Sometimes the extreme bit
terness of party rancor goes entirely
tio far ; every effort in behalf of
measures in which localities are deep
ly interested is misconstrued; generally
credited to some motive of personal
instead of public policy ; such mean
ness in politics, frequently makes the
best results for the common weal ap
pear like the sham of a trickster.
In this connection the work of Sena
tor Slater and Representative Whit
eaker are worthy of notice. At the
urgent solicitation of leading citizens
of the State who had felt, for years,
the necessity of another outlet for
t fie vast and increasing products of
the Willamette valley and Eastearn
Oregon, one certain to afford lasting
and advantageous competition, these
Honorable gentlemen, like true ser
vants of the people (not the party
electing) personally visited and care
fully examined the route of the W.
V. & C. R. R. and the opportunities
for improving the bar st Yaquina
Bay, and becoming fully satisfied of
the practicability and advantage
such improvement would be to a
large portion of Oregon, they have
steadily followed public demand, and
no one can doubt the earnestness of
purpose displaced from time to time
as the session progresses. Well de
served success will, (I hope) crown
their labors. If so, what an immense
benefit will they render the monoply
ridden people of the Willamette
valley and Eastern Oregon. Such
action would be the truest economy
and the highest statesmanship.
Now considering what has been
done, and what there is to do, is there
anything criminal in commending
the course of our members, (not the
party's,) but the peoples) in expressing
a feeling of kindness for those who
stand up and battle for our (not the
jjarty's) but the people's rights ? In
the language of a patriot, who spoke
for liberty, "if this is treason make
the most of it." It is high time the
people of the Willamette valley and
Easters Oregon studied carefully
the situation and establish a prece
dent that meritorious congressional
labor is that which affords the great
est good for the greatest number,
and that no party lash can deter a
grateful people from honoring and
rewarding faithful service.

Corvallis, March 27, 1880.
Our Sentiments. The Junction Republi
can, of March 24, expresses our sentiments,
exactly, in the following manner :
"There is a good prospect, that Congress
will grant a subsidy for opening and im
proving the Yaquina Bay Harbor. Our
representatives in Oonoreaa are snlh? nn f hin
question and are laboring zealously in itsi'26, G. W. Qui vey, editor :

who has any political aspirations, that treats
this cfiort with mttitlerence.
Modesty Worth Rewarding. While
standing in the column of men awaiting our
turn for letters at the Portland, Oregon,
Post Office a few weebs since, a number of
ladies approached the box window, and el
bowing in. demanded their letters (if any)
immediately ; but we noticed one who had
the highest forehead and was the most intel
lectual of all those that approached the box
on this particular occasion, stood back and
awaited her turn in regular order ; it so
pleased all in the column that tbey unanim
ously voted her the most modest woman in
all that great city. She did not part her
hair on the side! nor did she have it hanced f

YAQUINA BAY.
Wc bear, from Washington, that
the opposition to the proposed appro
priation, hitherto chiefly confined to
innendoes and stealthy insinuations,
has at last taken definite shape and
this is the outcome :
" We are told, by citizens of Oregon, and
others having large investments in .the
state, that the agitation attempted to lie
gotten up in reference to improving Ya
quina bay is wholly at the instance of one
man, who is hoping to draw attention to the
little entrance at Yaquina, and in that way
dispose of his otherwise unsaleable property.
That under the most favorable circum
stances no vessel drawing more than 9"; feet
of water could enter the Bay. That there
is no considerable body uf people anywhere
in the state desirina an appropriation for
the Bay ; as an evidence . of that fact, the
county papers only mention the matter oc
casionally, when" called on by some small
locaf politician from the fishing village loca
ted near the entrance to the inlet. That
the only newspaper agitating the subject is
a Republican one, published in Benton
county, where the Bay or inlet is located,
and its object is to win favor in the county
a Democintic one by showing that Dem
ocratic representatives are neglecting the
interests of the county. That the other
papers in the county make only feeble men
tion of the so called harbor, because they
know there is no Bay to improve. "
The mountains have been in labor
and out comes this mouse. Look be
low and judge. Do the articles from
which these extracts are taken give
an uncertain sound ? Is this a sham
enthusiasm ? Could any one man,
however powerful and adroit, manu
facture this sentiment? Is this a
party question ? Yes, it is in this
sense : t hat whatever be the color of
the polities of the Oregon delegation
in congress, if they act heartily with
the peojile of the Valley, they will
earn the gratitude of the people, and
that the expression of that gratitude
will be felt at the ballot boxes. But
they will remember that nothing
succeeds like success, and that their
constituents will be apt to judge of
the earnestness ad energy of their ef
forts by the amount of the appropria
tion they get :
From the Ilanisburg (Linn coun
ty) Review, of March 1 2 :
Among several important
measures, the improvement of Yaquina Bay
is the most prominent. An appropriation
is required to remove an obstruction or the
bar at the Yaquina Bay. When accom
plished the Willamette villey will be no
longer dependent on one route or line of
transportation to the sea board. The Wil
lamette Valley & Coast R. It. will be finished
from Corvallis. to the Bay; it will probably
pass through this county on to Eastern Ore
gon, the shortest and cheapest line in point
of operation now before the public, we do
not say it will come to Harrisburg, or by
every man's door, but we do assert emphat
ically and without the least fear of success
ful contradiction, that this road will effect a
great and beneficial reduction in freight
and fare as compared with present prices
for such such service. It will afford a per
manent check in the future against exorbi
tant charges. If we
want cheap goods we invite competition and
the result is assured, if we want cheap
freight or fare to the seaboard, without go
ing half around the state to get there, work
for a line saving 221 miles of distance, and
one that will save the pilotage of 120 miles.
So much has been said, aud truthfully said,
concerning the general advantages and pos
sibilities of the proposed improvement, that
further remarks in that direction arc not
needed. Our delegation are in possession of
abundant ami substantial facts and fully un
derstand that this appropriation is anxiously
expected at this session by the people of the
Willamette Valley and Eastern Oregon, aud
we believe them to be earnest, and hope to
say in the near future, faithful servants of a
large and anxious constituency.
The Daily Oregonian of Jan. 28,
contains the following pertinent and
sensible remarks relative to the im
provement of Yaquina Bay :
Ppople of Benton county, as will be seen
by the memorials we print to-day, are mak
ing renewed efforts to bring before the at
tention of congress the importance and prac
ticability of a lilieral appropriation for im
provement of the entrance of Yaquina Bay.
Their petition is being circulated for signa
tures in nearly all parts of the state. There
id no citizen who would not like to see such
appropriation secured ; for though a printed
slip which accompanies fhe memorial seems
to be designed to set forth the view that the
movement is one of rivalry if not of hostil
ity to Portland, yet the fact is Portland is
desirous of witnessing the advancement of
all the interests of the country, general and
special, and is not so narrow as to expect or
desire to monopolize all the improvement for
itself. If a good port can be established at
Yaquina Bay, it will be an important step
in the commercial development of the state.
At the same time it will promote, assist and
increase rather than olistruct or diminish
commercial enterprise in Portland, and upon
established lines of commercial movement.
Our country is a vast one and capable of
great and complex development.
" The Portland Standard ot March
28, in referring to the recent survey
of Capt. Woods, says:
" Senator Slater's purpose is to nse these
data in support ot his effort to obtain a
. e .1 i i
large appropriation ior ine general improve
ment of Yaquina Bay, for which several
monster petitions have been forwarded to
Washington from this state. It seems that
at last we have secured a delegrtion in con
gress that is disposed to do something which
will be a last;ng benefit to the people of the
Willamette valley. Nothing will suit them
so well as an appropriation for removing the
rocky bar at the mouth of the Yaquina, and
if our delegation succeeds in securing it our
people will never forget them.
From the River Side, nublished at
Independence, Polk county, March
the same system of jetties by which Cap
tain Eades so deepened and improved the
channel at the mouth of the Mississippi ;
but experience and science equally demon
strate the fact that the shifting sands at the
mouth of the Columbia will never furnish a
solid, safe and abiding foundation for such
works. It will, therefore, be necessary that
another method be sought out to save to
the navigation of the world the waters of
our own broad and beautiful Columbia ; and
this plan, whatever it may 1 e, will have to
be something as yet unknown to the engin
eering world. The willows of Edes jetties,
with bags of sand and dirt used to hold
them in place, instead of deepening and
enlarging the channel of the Columbia at
the bar, would, in a very short time become
incorporated with the shifting, moving sand,
and assist in obstructing the channel.
From the above facts it is evident that
we must soon look for another ocean outlet ;
one on which we can depend at all times,
and in all seasons. Such and outlet we can
have at but a trifling expense to otir govern
ment, at the Yaquina Bay. The rocks at
the bar can be removed, and the harbor ren
dered safe and easy of success for the largest
class of vessels that visit our waters, for a
comparatively small sum. With this chan
nel, a harbor is formed which will never be
closed by drifting sands or changing bars ;
and inside the Bay there is safe anchorage
for a large fleet. Another point of superi
ority which the Yaquina Bay possesses over
the Columbia lies in the fact that it is never
subject to ice blockades ; and is available at
all seasons of the year. The W. V. & C.
R. R. is already projected, and a portion of
the road graded ; and this, when completed,
will connect the central and upper portions
of the Willamette valley with the ocean
beach ; reducing the distance and time from
those portions to San Francisco, nearly one
half. With the true man of business, time
is money, and this change of route would
effect a valuable saving of time, even to the
business men of Portland.
Our Senators and Representative in Con
gress are called upon to act for this one vital
interest of Oregon ; and they will succeed,
unless defeated by the railroad lobby. As
we have before ttated, we again reiterate,
this is a matter vital to the interests of a
large, populous and wealthy portion of Ore
gon ; is not, and cannot be in any way con
nected with politics, and defeated by parti
san methods, the ones responsible for such
defeat will be held to a strict accountability
by our people.
COLUMBIA BAR -AN URGENT MATTER.
It is time to speak plain words about the
Columbiariver bar. Yesterday a correspond
ent of the Oregonian did good service in this
behalf .and to-day anothercorrespondent does
a like thing. So far is it from being necces
sary to get np a scare and panic about the
alleged shoaling and increasing dangers of
the bar, that in fact these things may with
confidence be pronounced imaginary, and it
is therefore meet that we turn from unsup
ported conjecture to practical facts. That
the bar is shoaling we have seen no reason
whatever to believe; that the loss of the Dil
harree was due to blundering incompetency
and to the want of tugs of sufficient power,
is next to certain. The result of the inves
tigation before the British vice consul in this
city makes necessary an investigation by the
state borad of pilot commissioners, with such
further action as their finding., may re
quire. We have no doubt that there is as
great depth of water at the entrance of the
Columbia river as there ever was; and all
we want is intelligent and efficient service
there. And this the country must have.
The service at the bar, under the existing
law, is a monopoly which exists to make all
the present profits it can out of the com
merce of the Columbia, without regard for
the future. It is represented at every ses
sion of the legislature, and there makes a
fight for its own interest and for the defeat
of reform. At the rates allowed by law its
profits are enormous; and yet the service it
renders is extremely inefficient as compred
with the wants and importance of our com
merce. Our commercial men must take
hold of this subject. We must have power
ful tugs, lower rates of towage, and good pi
lots. When we get such service at the
mouth of the Columbia river as it is easily
possible to obtain we shall have an end to
disasters. Oregonian, March 27th.
From the above it is evident that
all the astounding statements relative
to the shoalinsr of the Columbia riv
er bar have been made for the pur
pose of inducing an immediate appro
priation for the improvement of that
bar. The truth is the State legisla
ture can furnish a remedy at its next
session.
Useful Knowledge. To transplant
trees, as soon as they are received, cut off all
broken roots, and all roots previously cut
should be recut, just above where they were
formerly, to freshen them. The branches
should be cut back half their length. AH
bruised parts, whether in roots or branches,
should be cm off. The hole for the tree
should be larger and deeper than the roots
require, and the tree should be planted two
inches deeper than when in the nursery.
Put the surface soil at the roots and the
bottom soil on the surface. It is a good
idea to dip the roots in a thin mud just be
fore planting. The land should be thorough
ly ploughed eight or ten inches deep, or sub
soiled and cross-ploughed, and then finely
pulverized. Do not plant any small grain
or alfalfa in an orchard under any circumstances.
The Astorian of late date, says : "Capt.
Flavel has been making personal inspection
of bar soundings for several days, since his
return from San Francisco, and is himself
fully satisfied that it is only a question of
very brief time, so rapid and broadcast is
the shoaling process, when it will be impos
sible for deep vessels to cross. The north
channel along Sand Island from the head, is
filling up fast as does the south channel.
This would indicate that the commerce of
our entire State must soon seek another out
let, or we, with the vast and constantly in
creasing resources of onr country, be bot
tled up and made an inland, and not a mar
itime State. The most-important and ah,
sorbing question iwtll the people of-ort.-land
and AatoriapwIpSfay, is how can tfts
shoaling and despoiling of onr great high
way to the outside world, be checked and
averted, we would nrst iook tor neip to

shipped ten tons of the Plummer fruit be

this year's product is worked up. He says
the Company has heard from their first
shipment to the same place, and feel very
much flattered over their prospects. The

much better than my other in th market
that it drew from several of the London
newspapers very favorable notices.

Editor Gazette : The Democrats held
their primary meeting here Saturday last.
The number of Democrats present were
eighteen, number of votes cast twenty -'one ;
three Republicans present either taking
part or else some jof "the Democrats voting
twice. The delegates elected to the county
convention were, Joseph Graham, Gaberiel
Long, Jas. Kibbey, Chas. Cooper and John
McGee. Everything went on quietly until
the meeting attempted to instruct the dele
gates. The instructions wished to be given
were to the effect "that the Corvallis ring
should not run the delegates or cast the votes
of absent members." During the discus
sion of this question, one Bourbon Democrat
got excited and with much energy declared,
that, " If Republicans are a runnin' this
meetin', I don't waut nothin' to do witH it."
The instructions were promptly voted down.
It is believed that the said Democrat is in
cahoots with said Corvallis ring.
The Republicans of this precinct are fully
wide awake and will seud up a good delega
tion to the county convention and a good
majority for the ticket nominated. As we
have a member of Congress to elect this
spring why cannot those who are interested
in opening up a commercial thoroughfare
through Yaquina Bay, unite and nominate
and elect some person who will work hearti
ly in Congress for this much desired end?
I believe any man of average ability elect
ed to Congress from Oregpn, at the present
time, who would make it a speciality .to la
bor for' an appropriation for Yaquina Bay
could beyond doubt succeed, unless the
present Congress should give the required
aid. The ojjening tip of Yaquina Bay is and
ever should be placed foremost among the
improvements in this State. Ajax.

CARD FROM MR. MULKEY.
To G. B. Smith, Esq., Chairman Green
back County Central Committee : Dear Sir:
I see by the proceedings of the. Greenback
county convention, held at Corvallis on the
11th inst., that my name appears as one of
the nominees of that convention for the of
fice of IJepresentative.
I was surprised to see my name used in
that connection, as I have never acted with
the Greenback party. And though, per
haps, holding some views not wholly antag
onistic to those advocated by the Green
back party, I am not sufficiently strong in
the Faith to be your candidate. am an
Independent anti-Grant Republican, 1 recog
nize among the active members of the
Greenback party in Benton county many of
my warmest personal friends, and I am not
unmindful of the confidence expressed by
your convention. But friendship is one
thing political integrity another. Some
of the financial theories advocated by the
Greenback party, I doubt not, are correct
in principle, but I fear that our children's
children will be voters and office-hunter3
long before they can be practically applied
to the governmental affairs of nations.
I have said this much, because to remain
silent would be to deceive yon and to be
dishonest with myself. Yours respectfully,
A. G. Mulket.
Corvallis, March 25, 1880.
We are informed that Mr. N. WThealdon,
also a candidate for representative on the
same ticket, has requested Mr. G. B. Smith
to remove his name from the ticket.
EXPLANATION WANTED.
Ed. Gazette : Why it is that a private
lettter, plainly addressed, put in the post
office at Philomath, Benton county, never
reaches Dixie, or Rickreal, Polk county, or
vice versa ? Seems to us that, in that short
distance, there ought to be no such trouble ;
still, to our positive knowledge, our dear
ones have mailed important news to us,
which we never have received, and probably
never should have known anything about
had they not tol i us of it when next we
saw them. They, in turn, wait and wonder
why we don't write. If any unfortunate
mail carrier on this route has had to use the
con t juts of the mail bags to kindle a fire to
keep himself from freezing to death, we
have not been so fortunate as to hear of it.
So it seems to us there must be neglect
somewhere, on the part of some one that has
something to do with the matter. Yours
respectfully, Sarah A, Iewis.

Ague Cure
Is a purely vegetable bitter and powerful
toiiii-, ami U warranted a speedv and cer
tain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills and
Fever, Intermittent or Chill Fever, 1 te
rn i t ten t Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical
or BUions Fever, acd all malarial dis
orders. In miasmatic districts, the rapid
pulse, eoated tongue, thirst, lassitude, loss of
appetite, pain in the hack and loins, and cold
ness of the spine and extremities, are only"
premonitions of severer symptoms which,
terminate in the ague paroxysm, succeeded
by high fever aud profuse perspiration.
It in a startling faet, that quinine, arsenic,
anil other poisonous minerals form the basis
of mo-it of the " Fever and Ague Prepara
tions," " Specifies," "Syrups," and "Ton
ii s," in the market. The preparations made
from these mineral poisons, although they
ar:i palatable, and may break the chill, do.
not cur.s, hut leave the malarial and their
own liu poison in the system, producing
quinism, dizziness, ringing in the ears, heatt
aciie, vertigo, and other disorders more for
mhlalda than the disease they were intended
to cure. AvF.it's A:rn Crur. thoroughly
eradicates these noxious poisons from the
system, and always cures the severest eases.
It contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
that could injure the most delicate patient;
and its crowning excellence, aliove its cer
tainty to cure, is that it leaves the system as
free from disease as before the attack.
For Liver Complaints, Avf.r's Ac.vk.
Cuijr, by direct action on the liver and bil
iary apparatus, drives out the poisons which
produce these complaints, anil stimulates the
system to a vigorous, healthy condition.
