Benton county seeirs to bo favored in this respect, since no re- po- ts of this nature have reached us. Rev. Dr. Lindsley, of Port and, will hold services at the Presbyterian church in this city ne .t Sunday, morning and evening, being the cooc'ud'nge::erc'ses of the Benton county Sunday School convention, which begius on Friday at the court house grove. De';nqueut tax payers find a limit to Sol's endurance, as will be seen by our advertis- iog columns. This is as it should be, as it is a well known fact that the finances of a county depend on the coHect'oo of its taxes. F'om a private letter received f -om Will M. Kiik, we learn that the trip was made fromCorral'is to Co'ydon, Iiwa, in s;.c days and si:: hours.

The Grand Army reunion and mil;tary tournament to be held at McMinni ""e on toe 15th, lfith and 17th of July next, prom ises to be one of the grandest events in the history of Yamhill. It is on the same plan that held at Portland last year. Posts om all parts of the state will be in attend ance, several pieces of artillery will be brought up, and the Governor and staff will hono the Post with their presence. Several companies of infantry and cavalry will be organ: .cd and fully equipped for the occa sion in various parts of the county and state. J. W. Webb, of California, lectured at the city ha'l Ipst Monday evening on the temperance question. Mr. Webb had just returned from the Bight Worthy Grand Lodge of the world, recently held at Wash ington, D. C, and was in possession of facts and figures wbi. hnade his lecture one of unusual inte' est. Mr. Webb is undoubt edly the peer ot any temperance lecture that has ever visited Corvallis. Deputy county clerk, J.O. Wi'son started for the Buy last Monday, to remain for a month or mo.-e. Daring his stay he will erect dwelling hone, and were it not that we are reliably informed that it is for his father, we would suspicion that "Oph'" was contemplating matrimony. He returned to Corvallis, Tuesday evening for repairs, hav ing broke a spindle of his wagon. Evident ly a deputy clerk requires some time to become an expert teamster. A street fakir armed with a license from the city to sell soap appeared on the streets of Corvallis last week, and under the pro tection of this license was successful iu robbing the people of a neat little sum of money by means of a lotteiy, or bunko schpme, whe-ein soap was a slight conside ration. In an enlightened community, such a fraud is a disgrace, and it is strange that it should be permitted. The raising of sagar beets in Denma-k promises to become an important industry. But in the raising of dead beats the United St..tcs still stands at the head of the class.

The result of the city election in Portland Monday was a complete victory forh'gh 1 cerse and the friends of law and order, says the Orcgonian. The cheap whisky men have been foiled at every point. The desperate efforts made to secure a reverse of the decree of the Circuit Couit for Multnomah Ounty in the Supreme Court have ended in failure. All the schemes and combina tions made to endeavor to offset the action of the Supreme Court by electing to the Council friends of cheap whisky who would repeal the high license ordinance have re united in iguommious defeat, m fact, it was a regular v ater loo lor the free whisky man. The high license ordinance is just beginning to develop its beneficial workings. The number of saloons is decreasing, and it is i:o longer possible for any scallawag who cm procure a jug of whisky, two barrels and a board, to blossom out into a "well respected liquor merchant" and become a powe- in' the land. There were polled 3819 votes. Commencement at FnUomath. The exercises will begin at 9:"0 on the morning of June 25th. The "juniors will offer a programme on the commencement grounds west of Pbi'ornath, in the forenoon, in the afternoon Prof. J. B.
