SEEM' CORVAUIS GAZETTE. Oorvallis, Aug. 5, 1881. -EDITED BY- YANTIS & WOODCOCK, ATTORNEYS AT LAW. OrFIEIAL PAPER FOR BENTON COUNTY THE FARMER AND THE SPECULATOR. But alas ! This poor unfortunate in dividual has not awoke to the realiza tion ot the fact that a railroad can be built to any other place on God's green earth," except it be to Astoria, or that .a steamer, the sole business of which is to convey tonnage from one point of the compass to another, could be induced to carry railroad iron to any other place on. the Pacific slope. The quantity, quality ard price of wheat is of such vital importance that if materially effects every busi ness interest of the whole country. The supply this year bids fair to be abundant and the quality gooil, yet it rs- by no means certain that the price will be as much as it should he. In fact the same causes which ruleil the price of wheat below living rates last year are no douht actively at work to accomplish the same pur pose again. The unusual scarcity of tonnage on this coast last year, together with the fact that speculators could safely charter all vessels at a high figure on account df such scarcity, and then hold them to be re chartered by others at 'figures one-third higher than they gave, had strong tendency to reduce the price of wheat. Specu lators could rot sal'Iy have done this in advance of their loas being purchased, had not other matters have conduced to render it safe for them to do so. After vessels had been chartered, as above stated, if the situation of farmers and warehousemen had been such as to prevent them from selling at any price offered them, no matter how low, speculators could not have re-ebnrtered for the high rate; and in that event the farmer would have re ceived the difference in the price of this two different charters added to the price of his wheat. A'few farmers early in the fall sold their crop and nearly all the rest of them were owing the warehousemen for the years sacks, and they in tnrn were owing parties below for the same, which came, due before most farmers were willing to sell their grain. The warehousemen, in order to save themselves from pressure by parties to whom they owed for sacks, shipped a quantity of wheat to se cure payment of the amount, and these parties to whom the wheat was shipped loaned it to exporters with which to load the highly chartered vessels. We do not pretend to say that all warehousemen done this, nor do we pretend to intimate that anv particular ones did so, because we have not taken the trouble to learn who did it, but we bre informed upon good authority that a sufficient amount of wheat was thus shipped and loaned eo as to keep the supply in excess of the demand and thus prevent it from advancing in price. This same state of affairs will no doubt be brought about again during the present year if the circumstances are such as to peimit it to be done. In order to prevent this unprofitable and ruinous condition it no doubt would be better for farmers to buy their sacks and pay for them prompt ly or immediately after the wheat is stored if they purchase from ware housemen. By doing this it will relieve the warehousemen from the pressure of having to ship wheat below where it can be loaned in order to- comply with demands of parries there, and thus ruin the con dition of the market and render the labors of the farmer for the year almost fruitless. This is a matter which is liable at any time to seriously effect all busi ness interests. We therefore invite farmers to carefully consider the same to the end that they may be able to a!! work together in avoiding! the sack pressure. SKEPTICISM. OREGON PACIFIC RAILROAD, Th keptical man of the Weekly Astori;:u says: We don't take any stock in the tel egram which informs Air. Nash that three steamers are en route to Ya quina Bay from Cardiff with' 6000 tons of iron for the Yaquina Bay rail if: d. In the first place, steamers eapad'eof carrying 2000 tons of rail road iron would be unable to get into Yaqniua Bay; and again, steamers woui i probably not be engaged in Mich business. It is a very improb able story. It is said that men eannot help their partienlar faith, and we suppose it is so with some poor mortals. But in many cases their belief is controled entirely by their inclinations and der sires. If the telegram had beento the effect that railroad iron had been shipped as stated to Astoria ibr the j-nrpose of constrncting some railroad leading tO' or from that place, he would have -swallowed it down with ihe utmost eagerness rnd promulgat ed such news with unbending faith, j pletion of the O. P. It, R... from ibis From the Philadelphia "Public Ledger," under date of July 13th, in its commercial columns is contained the following well timed and .truth fid statements: "The Oregon Pacific Company ex pects to have 130 miles in operation by the beginning of next year, cov ering Benton, Linn, Polk, Marion and Lane counties, which produce three quarters of the Oregon wheat crop. The company will be an active rival of the Oregon Navigation Company and is expected to reduce freight and passenger rates over 50 per cent. Steamers will run in connection with the road to San Francisco and barges on the Willamette river. The com pany will ultimately build to Boise City, Idaho, connecting with the Northwest and Union Pacific Hail road." We simply give this quotation so that the public may see Jhow journals of unprejudiced surround ings speak of our railroad which is of such vast importance to the oeoule of Oregon. The "Public Ledger" is an old and reliable paper of long standing, and its business success or failure does not depend upon the smiles or frowns oi Vil lard's Oregon Railroad and Navipa- tion Company monopoly. It don't seem to doubt that railroads can be built from mere than one place on the globe or that a steamer can be hired to carry railroad iron to any port where it is paid for so doing. " Corvallis is not unlike all other small places in which you will genet ally find a few unprincipled wretches who have little ot their aflairs to attend to, and occupy considerable time in smelling around and sticking the outward' end of their nasal ex tremity into other peoples' business. Ever since we purchased the Gazette a lot of these pestiferous nincomwoops have been constantly meddling with the printing department of our busi ness. The last interference which has come to our knowledge is with a young gentleman who has been in our employ ever since we took hold of the office and to whom a. lot of these contemptible busy bodies have been running to lately and falsely telling him that we had already made arangements or that we were soon going to discharge him. We would reccomend to these social pess to hereafter attend strictly to thair own affairs as we. have known of people who have became independ antly wealthy by simply doing noth ing else except that of minding their own business. For if we are annoyed any more by their interference we shall devote to their benefit a 6 months advertisement free so as to acquaint the community with each of their names. YAQUINA BAY. The late rains have made it disa greeable for campers. The hotels are full-, and people from all parts of Oregon can be i-een talking in groups and pointing towards Ford's Point as the future city of the Bay and Ben ton cpunty. The O. P. R. R. survey ors have reached Toledo in less than four miles. The same point is seven miles by the road and nine by the river, the grade is easy and avoids the necessity ot trestle work. Everybody is interested in the progress of the Government works here. It should be borne in miud that all of this kind of work consumes a great deal dY money in preliminary preparations. Much has been used necessarily in bnying a tug, building scows and towing others from Coos Bay, building wharves, the purchase of anchors, chains, buoys and other indespensable material to be assd in the future. There has probably been mistakes, such as will occur in the private management of an undertak ing involving the outlay of 150,000. The failure to make a small "crib stay in place was probably a fortunate thing, for if a small crib loaded with stone could be displaced how could it be expected to keep a larger one with vastly increased buoyancy in position unuci aiiuuar cuuuiuous. j. tie ex perience gained necessitated a change, one that commends itself to all can did men. With a tramway there need be no delay, no waiting for tides, the material cheap and abundant. can be, carried rapidly to place, and the work can be poshed with "celer ity, certainty and surety.' Now that there is no donbt of the early com- valley to the sea, the question is "shall this important work stop?" Shall all the costly outfit become scattered and wasted, the jetty be come rent in places by the action of the winter storms, or shall it be kept intact, a stubborn resistance to the encroachment of the waves, all the equipments kept in use, order and re pair. It requires an organisation to handle ibis question and the Grangers ever alive to the best interest of the producer, and consequently the coun try need to advisers. They are shrewd, far-seeing men, and conver sant with the subject ot freights, fares and monopolies, and realize how much depends on improving the har bor at Yaquina Bay. The tug "Escort," Captain- T. M. McGee, from Coos Bay, entered the Bay yesterday at half tider drawing 10 feet. Owing to the absence of long continued northeast gales this season, the south channel has re mained almost closed, throwing the volume of water into the middle channel. This is precisely the effect of a jetty. The water is better on the bar 'this year than ever known before. Once confine the water in its natural channel and the pieces of deepening by cutting away the reef, can be commenced, and the re sult no sane man doubts, a harbor for deep vessels, vessels to carry fhe grain and commerce of Central and Eastern Oregon to all parts of the world. Riitro. Newport, July 30, 1881. FKIL0MATH, Ed. Gazette: Our quiet and pleasant little village is enjoying a good degree of peace and prosperity at present. The prospect of the early completion of the railroad to the Bay puts new life and energy into the people. A number of families are moving into town for the purpose of schooling their children. The large and commodious school house that is being built here will be completed for the fall term of school. . With a good college, one public school, PhiTdmath will afford excellent facilities for educational pur poses. The unusual rain storm that is now going on makes the farmers very un easy about their crops. A few more damp and rainy days will sprout and spoil a good deal of grain. Benton has a splendid prospect for an abun dant harvest this year. A number of our citizens are over at the coast rusticating and enjoying the grand scenery of old ocean. Among whom we may mention Bish op Castle, President Walker, Rev. Wood, Prof. Sheak, J. E. Henkle and their families. Notwithstanding it rains a little the y are having a grand time. The bivalves, fish and clams are disappearing by thousands. Jerry is digging for clams and fishing for whale. Prof. Sheak, while riding on a wag on near the ocean, was knocked from his seat by a large wave into the water and came near being picked up by a huge shark. Mr. John Latin, with his family, have gone east of the mountains to make a permanent home in the "bunch grass" country. Mrs. Per man Henderson, who has been dangerously ill for more than a month, is slowly convalescing. T. C. Felger, with his newly elect ed bride, have bought them a nice lot of furniture and have gone to house keeping in good style. Tom is one of those kind of cautious boys that gets the cage before he catches the bird. May other young mert go and do likewise. May their happi ness flow as a river and their future be crowned with success. The health of the community was never better than now. Correspondent. STATEJIEWS, The residents at II waeo are preparing for a grand clam bake soon. - The Astoriau positively denies that there is any small pox in Astoria or that there has been any except one case on the 4th of July. The fishing season on the Columbia is practically closed, a large number of the fish ermen having left. Senator Orover has gone east to be near the national capitol in case of an extra ses sion. The Bedrock Democrat says: We learn that the timber has been partly delivered to the O. R. & N. Co. for the purpose of erecting the trestle bridge in the canyon this side of Union. Quite a heavy force of hands are at work on the Siuslaw wagon road, and have com pleted it across the summit. It is expected that the road will be fiinished to the ctoast by fall. Upwards of 100 people have passed over the trail this summer. It shows what the travel will be when a good road has been constructed. The greater part of the people living at the month of the Siuslaw River have come into the valley, where they will work in the harvest field. Journal.

L Under the super vision of attending surgeons Professors Bell and Tainter thia morning made another ap plication to the patient's body of the elec trical apparatus known as the induction balance, with a view of completing the tests of Saturday, and ascertaining definitely and certainly the loca Jon of the ball. It is now unanimously agreed that the location of the ball has been ascertained with reasonable ex actness and certainty, and that it lies as heretofore stated in the front wall of the abdomen, immediately over the groin, about five inches below and to the right ot the navel. The ball must bs within two and a half inches of the surface. The surgeons don't intend to remove the ball at present. An attache of the Chinese legation said to-day that only Chin Lan Pin was to be recalled. Chin Lan Pin returns at his own suggestion and desire. He is uow over 70 vears old. and is very anxious to return to his native country before he dies. A youger man will be sent to take his place. The amount of 6 per cents continued at 3J per cent is $178,000,000. Coinage during July aggregated $3,896, 20082.000 double eagles, 2,250,000 stan dard dollars. London, Aug. L There was a large at tendance in the house of lords to-day for the second reading of the land bill. All the leaders were present except Granville who is indisposed. Carlingford, liberal, moved a second reading of the bill and made a long speech. Lord Salisbury followed Lord Colliugford, and was received with loud cheers by the conservatives. He most severely criticised the bill, and reviewed past legislation for Ireland. Ihe government, he said, sought to make the report of tha Richmond com mission the basis for a bill, but the main point on that bill was that tenants' improve ments were endangered. According to the bill, landlords could not even select the site for cottages. He became a sort of mortga ges of his own estate, with uncertain secu rity, a sort of head agent for a land com mission which had bias hostile to the land lord's interest Lord Silisbury's speech can be summed up as follows: He agrees to the bill under the circumstances, but will stand by amendments for the insertion of a clear definition for fair rent, for exemption of estates managed on the English system, and tenantries of over one hundred pounds year ly from the operation of the bill, and for maintenance of inviolability of leases. The marquis of LantlesdWn liberal) said that he regarded the bill as an attempt to quell agrarian aggression by indiscriminate concession of proprietorial rights. English vessel will be safe. He said any warefare was good enough for England who did not conduct honorable warefare herself and couldeut expect others-to do so. If she diden't do justice to Ireland every English ship would be sent to the bottom nntil the people no longer dared embark in them, every government building would be torn down and a system of terrorism began. Little Rock, Aug. 2. The story goes that J udge Harris and three citizens were assassinated in the streets to-day. Troops have left for the seat of war, by a boat, reaching there this afternoon. More troors have been ordered to Perrydale. Lord luchquin (contervativa) condemned the bill. strong'.y The Marquis of waterford, conservative, said that the bill was one of confiscation without compensation. The whole history of the bill, he said, showed that it was really an answer to the land league agitation. He hoped that the house would very consider ably amend the bill in commitee. Lord Lytton said that the bill was a rev olutionary concession to threats of rebellion and a step onward in a course that must end in either dissolution of connection be tween England and Ireland or civil war. London, Ang. 1. In the commons Har tington, secretary of state for India, gave details concernrng subsidies supplied the ameer of Afghanistan after his succession. He added that there was no reason to be lieve that the Indian government intended to afford the ameer further assistance. It had made no preparation to employ Anglo Indian forces in Afghanistan. Parnell was "named" for offensive language and for dis regarding the authority of the chair, and Gladstone moved his suspension for the remainder of the sitting. Parnell rose, and interupting Gladstone said that he would not go through the farce of awaiting a vote as the speaker had interfered with the free, dom of discussion. He then quitted the house. Jotion for his suspension was car ried, 112 to 14. Parnell was named for persisting in spite of the speaker's ruling in raising the Question ot Irish political nris oners, and declaring that the. authorities of the commons were always on the side of power. Parnell, leaving, said: "1 call the public to witness that you, Mr. Speaker, have remseu us treeaom oi discussion. Paris, Aug. 1. Three battalions of foot, one battalion of rifles and two batteries of artillery have left Toulon for Algeria. The reply of Minister Camacho to Barth holemy St. Hilliar's last note declares that outrages on Spanish colonists in Algeria and loss of French subjects during the civil trouble in Spain and Cuba do not admit of analogy. Thos. H. O'Connor is expected to start ten days hence on an American lecturing tour in the interests oi tne irisn land ag itation. The prospect of Parnell's crossing the Atlantic grows daily more probable. Helena, Mont., Aug. 1. Vice President Oakes, of the N. P. R. R. Co., and party arrived here on Saturday. Mr. Oakes has been examining the different passes through the main range of the Rocky mountains in company with several ot his engineers, in cluding General Anderson, engineer in chief, who met him here. Twenty miles of gra ding has already been completed in Hell Gate canyon on the west side of the range, and the work will be continued till the sea son closes. Every preparation is being made to push the road at all points. The Oakes party have been examining into the mining and other resources of Montana, and express themselves surprised at its extent. The party leaves here tomorrow for Bozeman and the National Park. The N. Y. Times says: Batchers in this city struck yesterbay morning for an in crease of wages. There was no time tor argument as orders must be filled and no way except agreeing to the terms of the men. Bosses were rendered helpless from the fact that the deserters refused tb work with any bat anion men. Trio Ann- 2. P. IW.

He says that after September 1st no ONE 11 ON EST 31 AIT. Six men sat around a stove in a De troit tobacco store. There had been a long period of silence when one of them rubbed his leg' en 1 remarked : "That old wound feels as if it was going to open again. I shall always remember the battle of Rich Mount ain." There was a slight stir around the stove, and a second man put bis band to his shoulder, and observed : " And I shall not soon forget Brandy Station. Feels to-day as if the lead was going to work out " The interest was now considerably in creased, and the third man knocked the asbes off bis cigar and said : " Yea, those were two hard figbts, but you ought to have been with Nelson at Franklin. Lor', but wasn't I excited that day ! When these two fingers went with a grape-shot I never felt the pain !" The fourth man growled out some thing about Second Bull Bun and ; saber-cut on the bead, and the fifth mai felt of his left side and said he shoul dways remember the lay of the grounfi it the Yellow Tavern. The sixth mar vvas silent. The other five looked at bin; iud waited for him to speak, but it wan i long time before he pointed to hi mpty sleevo and asked : "Gentlemen, do you know where! ;ot that?" Some mentioned one battle and som. inother, but he shook his head sadh aid continued i "Boys, let's be honest and own ligh ip. I lost my arm by a buzz-saw, ant1 now we will begin on the left and givi every one a chance to clear his con science. Now, then, show your wounds. '' The five men leaned back in theii diairs and smoked fast and chewed hard tnd looked at each other, and each on; w ished he was in Texas, when a runaway horse flew by and gave them a chance to ash out and get clear of the one-armed lOiiu. It was a narrower escape that any one of them had had daring the Bucklen's Arnica Salve.
