CORVALLIS, OR., MARCH 22, 1889.
About the O. P. The Review
of Ochoco, dated March 16, con
tains the following: "Col. Eckle-
son, chief engineer for the Uregon
Pacific, arrived here from Albany
last Saturday, and left on Monday's
stage for The Dalles. He crossed
the Cascades from the front ot the
O. P. on foot. What mission the
Colonel was on we were unable to
learn, but he said something would
be known within one month of the
company's intentions. Col. Eckle
son says the company can complete
the road from Albany to the -Des-chuttes
river within six months
from the time active construction
is begun.' When asked whether
the road would be located through
Pnneville, Col. Lckleson said that
was a matter entirely with the
managers, and a thing over which
the engineers had no control, but
the object of the company was to
get ft direct route, and he thought
the most direct line was across the
desert. The Colonel said there
was nothing in the report that sur
veying party in the employ of the
Union Pacific were locating a line
on the summit of the Cascades."
A Two-fold Benefit. Probably
one of the best and most attractive
advertisements for a city and coun
ty, that has appeared in any news
paper in Oregon, which has no
real estate firm's name at the bot
torn of it, is the last three-col umner
of Ralston Cox's, the enterprising
grocer, which appears in one of
the papers of this city, and will be
inserted in the Gazette next week.
It not only shows what you can
purchase at his grocery, but it is
ver beneficial in the matter of
showing the progress in public en
terprise which is now going on in
Corvallis. It shows that a general
waking up is taking place among
the citizens and no longer will
persons and things appear sleepy
and droll-like. If all merchants
Mould do one-fourth as well in ad
vertising their business and the city
in which they are located, Oregon
would soon feel the great effect
therefrom.
The School Building. At the
meeting of the school directors held
on Last Friday evening, plans were
submitted for the new school build
ing to be erected here, but none of
them seemed . to be within the
means that the district has allowed
for the erection of the same. A
petition has been in circulation
this week asking the board to use
brick instead of wood in putting up
the building; the cost of a wooden
structure would be about $15,000
and that of a brick near $20,000.
If a majority of the taxpeyers of
the district are in favor of brick
then theboard will very likely
comply with- their request. A
meeting of the directors will be
held to-night also, and every Fri
day henceforth.
Without Music Those who con
eider Wizard Oil a panacea for all
the ills to which human flesh is
heir, are invited te make thir own
article. The following prescrip
tion is said to make the identical
mixture known as Wizard Oil, and
a pint can be had for about 75
cents: Take oil of cloves, water of
ammonia and sulphuric ether, each
2 drams; chloroform, 1 dram; tur
pentine, 4 drams; gum camphor, 2
drams; oil of sassafras, 1 ounce; al
cohol enough to make a pint Mix
and dissolve. Any druggist will
mix them properly. Statesman. .
On Time.-With its usual prompt
ness the Southern Pacific pay car
appeared in Corvallis yesterday
morning, having been brought over
from Albauy on the Southern Pa
eific track. An engine was in
waiting here to take it on down on
its mission of paying off the em
ployes of the west side. .
Board- or Recents. On next
Wednesday, March 27th, the board
of regents of the state agricultural
college will meet in Corvallis.
Bargains in all lines this month, at Nolan's.
A Good Move. It has come to
the ears of a representative of the
Gazette that the city ; council is
negotiating for the purchase of the
Episcopal church building and
moving it on to a lot belonging to
the city to be used as a city hall
in which to hold council and other
business meetings required by the
city. Another report says that
there is strong talk of the council
renting the room in the new court
house, designed for the county re
corder of deeds office, which is -located
in the northeast corner and
includes a fine vault, etc. This, it
is thought, would be a splendid
move, for a it now stands, the
room will not be occupied by a re
corder of deeds for quite awhile
yet as the last legislature failed to
create such an office. On account
of a sudden rush of work this writ
er failed to question any of the city
officers on this matter.
Still Fixing up. Mine host M.
A. Canan, of th? Occidental hotel,
is beginning to feel that it is about
time Corvallis should put on more
airs as a city, and now that he has
improved the outside of his prop
erty by putting down a new side
walk, he is having S. N. Wilkins
and W. E. Paul busily engaged in
putting a most beautiful design ot
fancy paper on the walls and ceiling
of his b rge dining room, office, and
parlor, which will make it present
as nice an appearance as any hotel
in the valley. In fact, there is no
doubt but that Mr. Canan is one of
the men you read about, and will
do his share, if not more, in seeing
this city push to the front in the
matter of improvement, and public
spirit. A few more such men is
needed. .
Hose Tested, Etc. Yesterday
some of the firemen took both hose
carts down to the 'hydrant at the
corner just across from the water
company's pumps and tested each
section of hose with ajwater press
ure of irom 70 to 95 pounds. Out
of the whole lot four section burst
ed, and there is now 1,250 ieet of
sound hose belonging to the fire
department. After doing this, a
portion of the hose was taken to
the hydrant at the corner of J. R.
Bryson's property, nine blocks from
the pumps, and a section attached
thereto, when the water was turn
ed on and a stream thrown 110 feet
with the water direct from the
pumps, and only about forty feet
when coming from the new tanks.
An Answek. The following is
printed verbatim from a letter re
ceived at the Gazette office since
the last issue, and it is supposed to
be a correction" to the item last
week headed "A Good Beginning."
It is printed without any reluct
ancy, as it is the desire of the pro
prietors to make corrections when
suah is desired: "But a Bad Se
quel. Allen Parker paid the costs
incured and danced to the tune of
two hundred dollars to the Deep
Sea Company's agent, W.T. Radir,
for overdrawn accounts for the
construction of the schooner Geo.
H. Chance."
At the Jetty. A report' was
circulated here during this week
that the storm of last week had
damaged the south jetty at Vaquina
bay to the extent of $5,000. On
yesterday a representative of this
paper-asked Mr.Buford if such was
true, and learned from him that
the water had simply made a chan
nel through the spit which project
ed out into the bay from the south
beach at the place where the jetty
starts out into the ocean. Howev
es, this may be washed in such a
shape as to endanger the jetty, but
as yet no fear is felt that such will
be the case.
On April 14th. The new Con
gregational church will be dedi
cated on April 14th, the second
Sunday in the month. Rev. P. S.
Knight will preace the dedication
sermon, Le having been the first
pastor under the organization of
the church here a number of years
ago.
Plenty of Logs. The Frantz
mill stuated at Bangs Valley, which
is now undergoing thorouh repairs
and furnishes a large quality of
lumber to the northern part of our
county, has 90,000 feet of logs in
their pond and enough adjacent
to run them through the season. .
Quarterly Meeting- The third
quarterly meeting of .theM. "E.
church in the Corvallis charge will
be held at Philomath on Saturday
and Sunday, March 23 and 24.

That Hail Storm. M. C. Starr,
who made this office a call during
the week, reports the' hail storm
which occured last week in the
southern portion of the county as
being very heavy. He. says some
of the hail stones were one and a
quarter inches in circumference
and were biscuit shaped. Several
teams ranaway during the storm
and everything presented a delap
idated appearance after it passed
over. Wm. Bundy, of school dis
trict No. 40, says he believes some
of the stones were as large "as half
Contract Let for Poles and
Wire. Mr. Hurd has let the con
tract lor furnishing the poles for
his electric lights to M. J. Erwin.
The Main street poles will be thirty
two feet in length and the rest
about twenty-eight. They are
brought from the farm of Mr. Eg
lin, north of this city. He has also
contracted for the wire necessary
lor stretching throughout the city,
and will push the work as fast as
possible. Some of the poles are at
the planing mill already.
For the Season. A. W. Carey
is in this city, having arrived here
on Thursday last from Salem, and
has the thoroughbred racing stal
lion "Glenbrook," owned by G. G.
Glenn, who lives near the capital
city, along with him. . Mr. Carey
expects to remain here during the
season's service. All persons who
wish to see a nice looking animal
should call around to Mr. Eglin's
stable and see Glenbrook.
The "IIoss" Parade. A parade
of stallions and fine horses will
take place at Corvallis on next
Wednesday, March 27, 1 889. This
will be the first of this kind ever
held, and it is to be hoped that all
horse breeders and lovers of fine
horses will be on hand. Come on,
all you farmers, and join in the
procession with your nice colts. A
good showing ought to be had.
Oh, Socks. "In order to know
how large a pair of socks . to wear
take one, double up a fist and wrap
the sock around it and if the foot
just goes around, the sock is just
the size wanted. It will- do no
harm to try it." Albany Demo
crat. Now look here, Mr. Demo
crat, you don't mean to say that
you ever had any thought of trying
it, do you?
Fifty Years. Mr. and Mrs.
David King celebiated their fiftieth
wedding anniversary on last Mon
day. It being the golden one,
many beautiful presents were
made, including a gold watch and
chain, pair of spectacles, gold head
ed cane, and numerous others.
The anniversary was held at their
home on Oak creek near Corvallis.
Jim't Suit. Jim Westfall re
quests us to state that his suit
against J. R.' Meyers & Co. calls
for about $6000 damages on ac
count of his contracts with them.
That the receipts given them was
for only a few payments by them
to him. Hon. L. II. Montanye, of
this city, is his attorney. Demo
crat. Heavy Weight Cattle. Miles
T. Starr, who livej near Monroe,
last week sold six head of beef
cattle whose total weight pulled
the scales down to 7,659 pounds.
The price paid per pound was
three and one-half cents. Some
up the amount and you will see
that it pays to feed cattlo as Mr.
Starr does.
To Albany. L. B. D. Ivancovich
better known as "Louie," who run
the Eureka chop house and dealt
in fish, oysters, peanuts, etc., in
this city, has moved to Albany
where he will open a confection
ary and peanut stand, with oysters
on the side, half-shell. Probably
he will run a boot black stand also.

MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS.
THE O. t. A-SD W. V. ft C. It. F- SToCf
HOLDERS ASKCAL' MKKTlKOv
On Tuesday, the 19iti inst., the an
nual meetings of ti e stockholders
of the - Oregon Pacific railroad
company and the Willamette
Valley & Coast railroad company
were held at the companies' office
in Corvallis. It is le.m?d that fully
nineteen-twentietbs of the stock in
both companies were present or repre
sented. ' Unanimity prevailed and
votes of approval aud confidence in the
direction and officers of the companies
were unanimously p ssed and the re
tiring officers were ail re-elected.
Taking the above account and plac
ing it beside that which lias been cir
culated of late by pern;s who hwve
claimed to know iure "bout the work
ings of these comp mies than they do
of their own movements a great con
trast is iierceptibla. Nat long since
certain newspapers in the state tried to
startle the reading public by Alleging
that a change in tin- management of
theae companies w is tioing t occur
to the benefit both of the c ountry and
in the further projr. . u( the exten-'
sion of the road. I Joe- the fueling that
predominated at tli stockholder:;' meet
ing on the above d.-te show tint there
is any truth in sudt nssi rtiunsl The
facts disprove it At no time in the
history of these railroad lines has there
been apparent a greater degree cf
good feeling an I confidence in the
present manageai -nt than just now.
During this week all adjusted claims
against these com. a.iief are being set
tled and paid up t March 1st The
general manager, Wm. M. Iloag, ex
pects to soon receive orders to com
mence the season's work on the east

the Oregon Pacific road to its eastern
connection is one f Viist im; crtance to
Oregon, and espec d!y to the Willam
