Tne Pennies are Coming.
Mr. Hoult, the originator of, the 4 cent
per mile railroad bill which became a law
at the last legislature, probably did Dot
think that in drafting and securing the
passage of his act he was to da more than
perhaps all the men in Oregon before him
have done to introduce pennies iutj general
use. Such is undoubtedly the case, howev
er, In a few days every railroad station in
the state will be stacked with pennies, and
if a man travels three miles and gives the
aeut 15 cents he will receive 3 cents in re
turn so long as the pennies hold out This
small circulation illustrates the way in
which many dollars per day in pennies be
put in circulation. While the station
agents do not like the pennies becaus they
cause much additional trouble in making
confutations and change, and though the
typical western man thinks one cent pieces
too small for any one but Chinamen to use,
still uewcomers from the east will he glad
to see the familiar little coppers come into
general use. Eoeniny VAijram.
B.ow to BuUd up a Town.
Horace Greely said: "II you want to
keep a town from thriving don't erect any
more buildings than you can conveniently
occupy yourself. If you should have an
empty building, and any one should want
to rent it, ask three times the value of it.
Demmd Shylock prices for every foot of
land that God has given you stewardship
over. Turn a cold shoulder to every me
chanic and business m m who seeks to make
a homrt with you. Look at every new
comer with a scrowl. Ruu down your
workman. Fail toadvertise in or support
your home paper. Get your job printing
done abroad. Wrap yourselves with a coat
of impervious selrishness. There is no bet
ter way to kill your town."
The Sexteth Club.

M. Cosper, Thos. CaUahan, Root. King and
W. Lyman. It is not their intention to re

A Harrisburg correspondent to the Alba
ny Bulletin says: On last Sun lay our town
was enlivened and our people highly inter
ested in a contest between the knights of
the bat of Cor alli3 and Harrisburg. The
game was contested on both sides with sur
passing proficiency. The Harrisburgers
played with seeming perfection, but from
luck or science on the other side they were
just "left" a little. One or two slight acci
dents occurred but the kindest feeling pre
vailed. The most of the Corvallis boys
partook of the capital dinner set at the
Copia, some of them went to Mrs. Isham's
boarding house. The moral standing of

The effect of the recent rains upon the

has established beyond question the proba
bility of an abundant harvest. Everything
in the way of vegitation looks fine and pros
perous. The Yaqnina Po-tt says that Judge Kelsay

they can work it up to eighty pounds, which
will be equal to that of almost any steamer.
From Portland, for some time past, par
ties have been shipping by the carload
strawberries way .p into Montana and
other points. This is a help to parties
growing berries in the Willamette valiey
and a satisfaction to parlies several hun
dred miles distant to get strawberries at a
time of the year when it is yet cold, where
they are eaten and enjoyed.

thoughtful subscriber doesnt do it the pro

before deciding to come here to Locate. j
J G. Clark of Alsea was in the town

The San Francisco steamers for several
weeks past have been carrying potatoes both
ways. Oregon potatoes going down by
thousands of sacks, and the California reach
ing here by the like new product. One day
last week ou Front street, Portland, the
sidewalks were piled with new spuds from
below, and an adjoining pile ready for ship
ment by" the departing steamer. California
potatoes were quoted at 1 cents per pound,
which is the same as 90 cents per bushel; ii
is expected the quotation will fall to fo'O
cents this week.
Owing to the continued rains and high
water nothing is being done to the stranded
steamer City of Salem, lying in a partly
submerged condition near Rock Island.
Steamboatmen who have examined her say
that she is not materially damaged, antl
that 2500 will pay for bringing her down
aud putting her on the ways. According
to a carpenter who has examined her hull,
it will not cost more than 230 to repaii the
damage after the boat is on the ways. She
is now securely fastened, and when the
water subsides the boat will be raised.
A great many iniinigr. Hts are traveling
throughout tfiiferant parts ot the valiey
looking fer fnvorable opportunities to pur
chase farms, but very few of them purchase
however, until they have run into every
nook and coi ner of the whole-, state. The
cry of real estate agents from every quarter
in speakiug of such immigrants is unani
mously to the etieco that such immigants
have a soft thins.'; in being driven around
without expense as well as being dined aud
feasted by real estaie agents that they al
most give up the idea n. purchasing at all
in order that they may be able to continue
the guests of real estate agents and receive
their free rides.

Wm. Allen, the Boot-Black
The death of poor Wm. Allen the loot
black of whom mention was made in the
last issue of this paper, occurred under very
peculiar circumstance, ami t Mime it
might seem suspicious cm uint;.iii.es of fool
play. This poor owl Mn.i , like in t j
all inebriates, was Wont t hin el1 ihali to I
any other person. Al-out n.u or tt n e .rs
ago he was iu CorvabM one wiio.er
and performed the terv.tcs of boot-black
and general choring al ..tit Mi. lii.ford I
barber shop. He final:.! disappeared oud
was next found in Sao to where be la Iw en
for several years in the same old bui - "i
book-black and doing chrt jt iiernliy. Iu
the mean time his habits oi at.-ou dr.i.k
and drunkiiesH had been carried to i ach an
extent that he would sometimes l,.ke fits
while under the influence of liquor. A few
weeks ago he returned to CorvaJlie arfd took
up his old business. After remaining a few
l.tV a party here one morning wax heard to
lay that be would paralyze the old boot,
black, so be was enticed into a saloon where
it M said liquor WTM poured down him and
before nine o'clock at night the old bootblack
was certainty p.i.;-a's.e I, beomse be wan
lead, ami the parties bo were hoard to s y
that they won, d paralyze him certainly at
last found when it was too late that the old
man really was peralyzed. It w;o claimed
that these parties made the old man drink
his fill of liquor of different i-.iiids no 1 went
so far as to hold him and pour it iown bun.
It is sufficient to say that enough of the
villainous cbraimpds had been force I down
the old man to throw him into Sits ir'un the
effects of which he died soon af:erwards.
Alter aii this hud happen-d and in a civil
ized country, no inquest was had. no exam
ination was made to acertuiu how the man
came to his death, and the parties who
helped the old man to so much drink that
day are still on deck aud no one knows who
will be the next man iu the community who
will be paralyzed.
Paralyzers of human beings are dangerous
elements in society, and officers of a com
munity, where a person dies suddenly from
paralysis of ,this kind and whoso far neg
lect their duty as to fail to hold an inquest
and in iiiire into snc'i irregular cases of par
alysis .should step down i nd out of the of
dce, resign and let persons be appointed
who will conform to the common decencies
of humanity in doing their duty in such
cases.
