SUBSCRIPTION RATLS r Year SS 00 Months, 1 00 ree Months. 75 Mle Copies c Yor (when not paid in advance). 2 50 CORVALLIS, OR., JULR 12, 1889. A GOOD ST10JVIJVG. The present administration is going right along with its duties to the American people. It finds no difficul ty in reducing the surplus and doing it Honestly and in the best way for the general good. During the month of June the public debt has been reduced $15,000,000, the largest reduction in any one month for several years. Under the circul a- of April 17, 1888, the treasury department has purchased bonds amounting to $148, 501.250, at a total tost, including premiums, of $172,170,550.28. From August 3, 1887, when the department first began purchasing, to and includ ing to-day, the total amount purchased is $172,824,600, the cost thereof be ing $199,374,273.76. Had they been allowed to run until maturity the cost would have been over $235,000,000. The governor has therefore saved over $35,500,000 in interest alone. It is easy to see how utterly baseless were most of the charges made by democrats during the last campaign against the purposes of the republican leaders in case they came into office. No attempt has been made to run the government expensively or otherwise than for its best interests. It is in the hands of honest and capable officials, who have the broadest ideas of the policy upon which such a nation should be conducted. Sullivan completely knocked the stuffing out of Jake Kilrain in Missis sippi on last Monday. Seventy-fiv e rounds were fought and at this end of the last round Kilrain threw up the sponge. The fight was for $20,000 besides 60 per cent, of the net receipts of the tickets sold and the loser getting 40 per cent. There are a gt eat many who thought the fight "awfull" yet they would like that money and the physical condition of Sullivan and very likely they read the full report of the mill. The Pacific coast has suffered fear fully from fires within a few weeks. First Reno lost $250,000; then came the awful conflagration at Seattle, with $15,000,000 consumed. Van couver came next. Then Grass Val ley Lad a turn. Carson City saw a handsome business block go up in smoke, and a few days following Hailey, Idaho, was almost completely destroyed. Then comes Ellensburgh, and the entire business portion of that little city was swept away. Each city is fearful that it will be the next to be visited. It was quite the custom for the Democratic press to remark that Har rison would not have much influence with this administration, when the eabinet was being formed. The re cord of the last four months has made quite a radical change in their estimate and opinion. Harrison's head is now admitted to fill his grand-father's hat Cull of brains. The Society of Locomotive Engin eers was the most serious sufferer from the great- "Q" strike of last year. It has lost fully 1000 of its members and ao retrograted in power and influence that it will take ten years to build it Up to its standard before the strike. The organization is a good one and should survive if it would let strikes alone. "With the connection of the 0.& C. K. west side at J unction and then to have the Astoria road connect with the same line at some point below, or light here, would give Corvallis a great deal of prominence as a city, then placing her on two transcontinental lines. A $20,000 schoolhouse, two new brick store buildings, and a few nev esidenceiv besides the agricultural college, dorakory, shops and barns, is the amount of buildings hi. progress now in Corvallis I I. . . in Business in the advertising line of the Gazette nofe being so brisk as formerly the original size of the paper has been adopted that of a C-col-uroner.. i THE KINDERGARTEN. Published by Request. . Some women have the mother in stinct largely developed . by nature. They feel they must "mother" every thing that is weak and needs help. To their natural gift they have added knowledge. They learnt much from their own mothers, and much from their own experience gathered in youth ful years. They' have learnt from wise words, and wise books, andthey have thought out their own thinkings. They have looked back to the wants and yearnings of their own childhood, and their warm sympathy makes them apt learners in the school of life, in which little children are mostly found. Such women, if blest with firmness of will, and persistent methods, can nurture their children well. They will care for the little body as to ita health. They will provide activities for its rest lessness, soothing it the while with mother song. Its active plays will soon merge into real occupations, that means something useful to mothers while she is about her houbehold du ties. All the time the mind is being awakened through the work of little hands. Every. little incident at home, and every fresh sight in the garden or abroad is, as it were, a parable, whereby she teaches her child something fresh. She wakes up love in its heart to all that lives, thereby kindling in its spirit a warm iuterest in what it learns gradually to observe, and she points through nature to God the creator. This is the ideal mother. But many mothers have this instinct but partially developed; and what they have is over laid with many thing's that are forever taking up their time and attention. The last chapter in their school life has been omitted; they have never had a lesson how to become wise mothers. The precious words "mother", which, in all European languages, comes from the old Aryan root, and means to "meas ure" to "manage." She should meas ure the capacities of the child's three fold nature, body, soul and spirit, and manage to draw them out in their natural order, (i. e. according to the law of their nature,) using the one as a feeler, so to speak, to the other. But our mothers have to much house keep ing, or society keeping or decorating for society, to spend their time drawing out the baby's powers one by one, moulding them the while for the good of his whole future-life. Froebel spent the longest period of his lite studying the real and ideal mothers smiong his German neighbors and counted up the number of those who for one reason or other could not 'iLOtber" their children when, they were past early infancy. From this scientific study in the warmth of his large heart he invented the system of the. Kindergarten the garden of Eden for childhood. So we may call the Kindergarten organized motherhood. L DOCTORING IH THE DARK. No sensible surgeon will attempt the performance of an operation involving human life in a room secluded from the proper amount of liht. A practitioner will not attempt the diagnosis of a com plicated disease unless he can see the sufferer and m ake an examination upon which to base his opinion relative to the courre of treatment necessary to bring about a complete restoration of health. Notwithstanding thd impropriety of such action there seems to ba a great deal of doctoring done in the dark. By this it is not intended that a literal meaning be infeirert, but that , a great many mistakes are committed because of the darkness which is the result of ignoi ance. It needs no illustration to demon strate that gros ignorance has caused many fatal mistakes to be made in the treatment of diseases by those who pro fess to be learned in the art of healing. In many diseases several organs are more or lees implicated and what seems a primary ailment may be one quite re mote. For instance, a severe headache may have its origin in a disturbed stom ach. On the oiiier ban I, sicknest at the ptotnach may be causod by a blow on the head. The seat of typhoid fever i in the upper part of the bowels, but most of its worst symptoms are oltea in the brain. Symptoms' of dissaseas well as diseases themselves are oftentimes followers or concomitants of some unsuspected organ ic diseaso and this is peculiarly true of lung, liver, brain and heart diseases in general, for it is now known that they are the result of kidney cfispase, which shows its presence in some such indirect manner. Several years a-jo a gentleman became xmvinced of the truth of this and through his efforts the world has been warned of kidney disease and as a result of contin ued effort a spacific kiown as Warner's Safe Cure was discovered, the general use of which has show n it to be of ines timable benefit in all cases where kidney treatment is desirable or necessary. When consumption is threatened see to it that the condition of the kidneys is immediately inquired into and if lhey are found diseased, cure them by an im mediate use of Warner's Safe Cure and the symptoms of lung decay will rapidly disappear. There are too many instances already recorded of the terrible results produced by a lack of knowledge concerning the cause oi disease, and human life is of too much importance to be foolishly sacrificed to bigotry or ignorance. Corvalli's board of trade evidently has been traded c'ff. Or, probably, it has been washed away by the water ditch: question. Lookout how your chimneys are.
