c5 Weekly Coryallis Gazette. FRIDAY MORNING, AUG. 14. 18SS. OFFICIAL PAPER FOR BENTON COUNTY Entered at the PostolMcc at Corvallis Oregon, as secoud-ulass matter. THIS PAPER will be found on file at the following named places, where advertising niav be contracted for at our regular rates: C. W. l.OMLKK it Co., Advertising Agents, Portland, Oregon. L. P. FISHER, Advertising Ager t, San Francisco, California. QT.O P. ROWELL & Co,, Advertising Agents, Mo 10 Spruce Street, New York City. J. H. BATES, Advertising Agent, 41 Park Row, New York Citv. H. W. AYER & SON, Advertising Agents, Philadelphia, Pa. One of tb best and most useful ini provemeuts that could be made lor Benton couutv is a draw bridge across the Willamette river at Oorvallis, so that teams, horsemen, footmen and all other class of pedestrians can pass over the river at pleasure. This improve ment would unite the business inter ests of a large portion of Linn Comity with Benton county. Benton counts is new out of debt and got money on hand, would it not be a favorable time for our county court to take into con sideration the question of building a bridge as indicated. The larger element in the demo cratic party,including those who have been considered the tried and faihtful of the n li tv.lor time imemorialare becom ing highly disgusted because President Cleveland ignores their claims, to the effect that democrats should be ap pointed to the places occupied by Re publicans. They claim that the elec tion of Clevelatl 1 meant, that there I should be a change in the officials of the government clear down the line, which is very consistent from a demo cratic stand point besides d tiring the cam paign Cleveland made so many profess ions, order to catch on to the popu lar favor.that he almost professed so much, that it took him clear out of the bounds of the democratic party.

If profess- Although there has been thousands of appointments made under these cir cumstances, yet the most notable per haps, and about which there can be no doubt of the motives which led to the appointment is the re-appointment of postmaster Pierson ef New York city, a Republican, who in order to favor Cleveland on the day of election kept the post office open and all the em ployees running on full time the whole day, which prevented several thousand votes being cast for Blaine. After Mr. Cleveland was inaugurated he very promptly re-appointed Pearson to the position which the latter held when he proved traitor to his party and the principles which he had al ways represented. Anothercase about which the doubt is wmeved is in the case of the intimacy between Henry Ward Beecher and Cleveland which grew up on account of the fellow feel ing which existed between the two because of their similarity of experi ence, one with Mrs. Tilton and the other with Maria Halpin, so warmly attached were they under the circum stances that Beecher a pretended Re publican did all in his power for the ejection of Clevelaud, and- soon after the latter had taken his seat be appoin ted the son of Beecher as collestor of customs on the Sound in Washington Territory. Is there any doubt that these appointments were made through political favoritism and f r the valua ble services rendered to the election of Cleveland? While Republicans do not question the rightful privilege of the president appointing whomever he pleases to fill the various positions in this mournful event were to be accep ted as evidence of patriotic feeling, the south might be regarded as the most loyal section of the country. Some outspoken ex-rebels, especially one who is a member of the Georgia legislature have not attempted to assume the role of sorrow which they do net feel. But as a rule the outward show of mourn ing is a little more ostentatious as to the south than at the north. It will be recollected that the most eloquent and touching funeral oration in congress, on the occasion of the death of Charles Sumner, was delivered by Senator Lamar, of Mississippi, now secretary of the interior in President Cleveland's cabinet. But thee was not enough patriotism and loyalty in his eloquence to educate the people of Mississippi, and the politic 1 1 massacre est Machinery) IN THE WOELD. ; Mccormick twine binders, gCHAMPlON TWINE BINDERS, at Hazelhurst, in Copiah county, in 53 that state, showed how little the senti mentality of Senator Lamar tended to temper, chasten and humanize the po litical brigands who formed the bulk of his constituency. f .,.!. .... ... . . ....... . ...

A Nice Line of The route for a water ditch, which if completed would brin-; an abundance of water from the Vs'illamette river, several miles adovv to C rvallis tt run any amount of machinery has been sur veyed by two different engineers, and the cost of the itnproveni.nt carefully counted and found that it will not cost over about twenty-five or thirty the u- sand dollars. For this small sum of money, this town and eounty can n6t afford to do without such a valuable improvement. It would prove a bene fit to every citizen of this county, because it vould encourage manufac turies to come and start business in our midst which would afford opportuni ties for people to get work, and at tract people here, and in time the pro ducers would thus get an opportuity to sell their produce to them. The present administration was put into power by several elements, all working to affect the election of Cleve land. English money was lavishly spent to elect him, with the expec tation that when elected he would do all in h is power, ,t8 bring about as near as he could.free trade between England and this country, and do all he could to favor the carriage of American pro ducts in English bottoms. John Roach a strong protective tariff man, one who was carrying on the only suc cessful ship yard in the United States which was likely to prove to be any thing like an opposition to English shipbuilding, had been conducting a large and successful business for many years. He had advocated for years that by proper action on the part of this government, ship building in the United States could be carried on so successfully as to be able to carry the foreign shipping of. the United States in her own home-made ships, which is a proposition that England on no account if possible to prevent it, would permit being carried out. Mr. Roach and his American ideas had to be disposed of and buried as far out of sight as possible. In order to dispose of them the contracts which Mr. Roach had with the government were repudiated by Attorney-General Garland, Mr. Cleveland's legal adviser. This so frustrated Mr. Roache's business cal culations that he was unable to meet his obligations, because Mr. Garland's decision in the matter led the govern ment to refuse to pay the money toMr. Roach on the contracts forlaborwhich the latter had already jierformed. Thus Mr. Roache s ship yard is closed up, in the government service, yet they do ; 0f the great soldier hive borne fruit j question the right of any man to pre-1 among them, and that their express- tend to do one thing, while at the same j i(ns Qf sorrow at his death are some-1 time he does the opposite of what he j thing besides surface grief, and tb j pretends, and thus plays the part of a I hyp 'critical semblance of mourning.; contemptible hypocrite. A Few DAMNABLE 'HE Facts for fa rents ta Keaa and Fonder Over. You say you have a fortune to leave them. O man and woman, have vou not learned that like vultures, like hawks,like eagles, riches have wings and will fly away. Though you should be successful in leaving a competency behind you, the trickery of executors may swamp it in a night; or some officials in our churches may get up a mining company and induce your or phans to put their money into a hole iri Colorado; and if, by the most skillful machinery the sunken money cannot be brought up again, prove to them that it was eternally decreed that that was the way they were to lose it, and that it went in the most orthodox and heavenly style. Oh, the damnable schemes that professed Christians will engage in until God puts his finger into the collar of the hypocrite's robe and rips it clear down to the bottom! You have no right because you are well off to conclude that your children are go ing to be as well off. Have you noth ing better than money to give your children? If you have not, and send your daughters into the world with empty brain and unskilled hand, you are guilty of assassination, homicide, regicide, infanticide. There are women toiling in our cities for two or three dollars per week who were the daugh ters of merchant princes. These suf fering ones now would be glad to have the crumbs that once fell from her fathers table. That worn-out, broken shoe that she wears is the lineal de scendent of the $12 gaiters in which her mother walked; and that torn and faded calico had ancestry of magnifi cant brocade that swept Broadway clean without any expense to the street commissioner. Though you live in an elegant residence and fare sumptously every day, let your daughters feel it is a disgrace to ihem not to know how to work. I denounce the idea prev alent in society that though our young wmen may embroider slippers and crochet and make mats for lamps to stand on, without disgrace, the idea of doing anything for a livlihood is dis honorable. It is a shame for a young woman belonging to a large family to be inefficient when the father toils for her support. It is a shame lor the daughter to be idle while her mother toils at the wash-tub. It is as honor- and a formidable rival to English ship able to sweep house, make beds or The freedom and security of the elec tive franchise at the south would con stitute the best monument that the southern p op!e can rear to the rr3 11 ory of General G ant, of -vIiosu cam paigns in war an 1 a I 11 'lustration in peace it was the guilin.j principle an 1 most essential object. Spring Wagons AND ilia OK lacts Roach's Contracts. We have taken pains to ascertain the about John Roach's dealings v.-ith the government. From 1S65 to 1S85, exclusive of the cruisers still un finished, he received less than $3,000,-1 000 from the government. During 1 the same period the entire amount of j work done by him on contracts was I $6,000,000. His government contracts j formed not more than 5 per cent, of i the whole volume of his business as a j shipbuilder. We have not estimated j his work for th; g.ivenvnm' daring ! the war period, as that was an extraor dinary period when all shipbuilders j were impressed in:o the service.

"From north to south, from east to west," remarked a Belfast lawyer, "in all the expanse of this isle and in every home, when you touch America, you touch an Irish heart." It is astonishing to note the enormous number of old people and children, as compared with the j-oung men and won:en, who give to n nation its life. The latter study the details of eniigrati on for the past two-score years. Every train bound for ports of embarkation is alive with those who are seeking in a new world the home and fortune that ought to be possible to them here. Many a gmy-baired old man and woman told me with pride of a son or a daughter "doing well" abroad in Michigan or Idaho, for ex ample -and wondered mightily that I never had heard of them for they have the vaguest ideas f the distances in the United States. Old men who go about with sticks and aged crones long since past active service assured .lie with the utmost solemnity that an other year at the farthest would see them in "Ameriky" soon as ever John or Norah sends them money enough for an ocaan ticket. Poor souls, it's a happier place than "Ameriky'' I'm hoping they will see. It would make you smile to hear the earnestness s STEAX aw MiilO AND Mill Machinery.
