Several little incidents transpired to
mar the pleasure of the presidential
party in Oregon, but those rude por
trait sketches of its members which ap
peared in a number of the papers after
their departure, were the most unkind
est cuts of all. The ladies of the party
will never forgive us for those.

W. H. Barbour, a Lebanon mer

remained away from home until his
friends became alarmed in regard to
his whereabouts. Last Sunday his
body was found in the river, his head

There seems to be no doubt that he
was murdered and robbed.

building, and expects to be ready for
business about the first of next month.
Matt has had much experience in the
hotel business and there is reason to
believe that he will prosper in his
latest venture.
City Election. The notice of city
election which occurs on May 18th is
given in another column, officers to be
elected, clerks, judges, polling places,
etc. This will perhaps be the most im
portant city election which Corvallis
has ever held from the fact that the
subject of extensive public improve
ments in the city will be discussed by
the next council; the question of city
ownership of electric light plant and
water works will come up and the
voters should know something of the
ideas of the candidates m regnid to
these matters. The city, doubtless, is
in favor of a progressive council, and
the voter should be sure that the
councilman he is voting for is one
which will reflect advanced ideas in
the councirdiamber. The unseemly
scramble for the paid offices will be
largely avoided in the next election,
as the treasurership is the only elective
office to which there is any compensa
tion attached. The marshal and re
corder will hereafter be appointed by
the council. But there is danger that
candidates for couneilmen may be
voted for on account of their prefer
ence of certain ones for the appointive
offices instead of on account of their
position in matters of greater import
ance to the city.
Eugene People Disappointed.
About two thousand people were stand
ing in the rain at the Eugene depot to
see President Harrison. But the train
pulled in and moved out, no one was

disappointed. But if you buy your

A VISjIT FROM A. D. BARNARD.
The old settlers of Corvallis were
gratified this week to tueet Mr. and
Mrs. A. D. Barnard, who 1 were promi
nent in this city and county in the
early days. Mr. Barnard came to
Corvallis in 1852, and was for some
time employed in the stote of J. C.
Avery, then the leading merchandise
establishment of the upper valley.
Mr. Barnard afterward went into busi
ness on his own account and built the
first brick building in this city, the one
formerly occupied by Jacobs & Neu
gass and now owned by Jake Blum
bsr. He owned a number of good
farms in this county at one time,
among them the one upon which the
Agricultural College is located. About
twenty-three years ago Mr. Barnard
took up his residence in Ventura,
Southern California, where he en
gaged in fruit-raising and has since
resided. On his farm he has 125
acres in orchard containing 25 kinds
of fruit and many varieties of each.
He left at this office a package of
fruit grown in his orchard in which
were many of the ordinary California
varieties, soft-shell walnuts, and two
clusters of the Japan fruit, a very
fine-flavored fruit somewhat resembling
a crahapple. The soft-shell walnut is
especially adapted to the use of con
fectioners and is much more valuable
than others on account of (he ease
with which the shell is removed. Mr.
Barnard is confident that walnuts
could be grown successfully in this
state, judging from what he learned of
trees planted here for ornamental pur
poses. The trees, he thinks, require
only cultivation to insure a heavy
yield. "There is a fortune in the
fruit for the young man and a fortune
in the wood for the old man," says Mr.
Barnard.
Mr. Barnard entertains no fear tint
the fruit market will become over
stocked, and would urge the farmers
to turn their wheat fields into orchards
as soon as possible. He is enthusi
astic upon the subject of fruit-raising
and does not allow the fruit pests to
discourage him in the least. "Preper
care of the orchard will," he says,
"overcome them."
Mr. Barnard is certainly a good or
chardist. His qualifications combine
intelligence and energy. He has
made a great financial feuccess of fruit
raising and his bearing is that of a
prosperous business man of the city
rather than a tiller of the soil. It is
to be hoped that the time is not far
distant when the fanners of this state
will become as prosperous and con
tented as Mr. Barnard through the
same agency.
Minnie and Annie. Minnie Wil
son is a semi-respectable individual of
questionable nationality, but who has
strong aboriginal propensities. She
sometimes falls into bad company and
becomes inordinately boozy. It was
under these circumstances that she
was arrested by Deputy Scraffbrd on
Sunday evening near the O. P. depot.
She remonstrated vigorously and it be
came necessary to send for a dray upon
which to convey her to the city jail.
On Monday the recorder fined her five
dollars for being disorderly. "Little
Annie Rooney" had been with Minnie
a short time previous to her arrest and
was suspected of having provided her
the means of becoming intoxicated.
Little A nnie was also arrested Sunday
evening and placed in. the county jail
for the night. The following day she
was liberated, the evidence against her
not appearing to be sufficient to war
rant further detention. She, however,
gave information which may lead to
other arrests.
For Rent. A neat 5 room cottage
on line of street railway, 7th street, at
$10 per month. Inquire of S. N.
Wilkins. s
A Chance for a Cheap Farm. A
bargain for some one. A farm con
sisting of 115 acres, 85 acres in culti
vation, balance timber, fine orchard,
house and barn on the place, situated
4 miles north of Monroe and 12 miles
south of Corvallis, adjoining Finley's
warehouse. Will be offered for a
short time only at $14 per acre. En
quire at this office.
Many years' practice has given C.
A. Snow & Co , solicitors of patents at
Washington, D. C, unsurpassed suc
cess in obtaining patents for all classes
of inventions. They make a specialty
of rejected cases, and have secured
allowance of many patents that had
been previously rejected. Their ad
vertisement in another column will be
of interest to inventors, patentees,
manufacturers, and all who have to do
,' with patents.-
PRESIDENT HARRISON IN OREGON.
The train bearing the presidential
party crossed the line into this state at
a little before 7 p. in. on the 4th, and
readied Ashland at 8, where there
was a large gathering and where the
party was met by the legislative com
mittee. The committee entered the
president's car and President Simon
delivered a formal address of welcome.
In reply the president said:
I esteem it an honor that the legislature
of the state of Oregon has taken this notice
of my visit, and I receive with pleasure this
welcome you have extended to me. I am
very glad to greet you and it will give me
pleasure to see you further before leaving
the state.
President Harrison then addressed
a few words to the citizens of Ash
land. Postmaster-General Wanna
maker and Secretary Rusk also d
livered short addresses, and upon be
ing called for Mrs. Harrison and Mrs.
McKee made their appearance.
The party was enthusiastically re
ceived at Mediord and Grants Pass.
There was no demonstration at Rose
burg on account of the hour at which
the train passed that point. The
president had not arisen when the
train passed Eugene and the people of
that city were greatly disappointed
upon being informed that he could not
appear. Eugene had made arrange
ments to receive the president in a
becoming manner and their disappoint
ment and trouble for naught was occa
sioned by the non-receipt of a telegram
sent to them to the etlect that the
president would be unable to see them
at the early hour at which the train
passed through their city.
At Albany the train was to
make a stop of ten minutes, and the
citizens of that place prepared to give
the party a becoming welcome. A
special train of the Oregon Pacific
company, conveyed to that city about
300 persons from Corvallis, including
the cadets of the Agiicultural College
under arms commanded by Colonel
Letcher, and the young ladies of the
College in charge of Miss Snell. At
8 o'clock the presidenti 1 train arrived
amid cheers and the strains of "Hail
Columbia," the cadets meantime hav
ing been drawn up in batallion front,
and presenting arms as the train came
to a stop. - Mayor Cowan delivered
the address of welcome, to which the
president responded m the following
words:
My Fellow Citizens: It gives me great
pleasure to see you, and to have the testi
mony ot your presence here this wet morn
ing, to the interest you take in this little
party of strancers that are pausing only for
an moment iu your midst. We do not need
any assurance, as we look over an American
audience like this, that upon some things, at
least, we are of one mind. One of these
things is that we have a Union which is in
dissoluble; that we have a flag we all honor
and that shall suffer no dishonor from any
quarter. While I regret the inclemency of
the morning, I have been thinking that
after all there was a sort of instructive moral
force in the uncertainty of the weather,
which our friends in Southern California do
not enjoy. How can a school boy or young
woman be well-trained in self-denial and
resignation who does not know what it is to
have a picnic or picnic dress spoiled by a
shower, or some fishing excursion by a
storm.
In closing, the president introduced
Postmaster-General Wannamaker and
Secretary Rusk, neither of whom had
time to address the people. Upon be
ing called Mrs. Harrison presented
herself. The assemblage presented
the party with many floral tributes,
among them a U. S. flag beautifully
constructed of red white and blue
flowers. As the train pulled out the
distinguished visitors waved adieu
which was responded to with cheers
from the gathered throng.
At Salem, where the party remained
an hour, Mayor D'Arcy, at the state
house formally welcomed the presi
dent to the city of Salem. Imme
diately afterward Governor Pennoyer,
as its chief executive officer, on behalf
of the people of the state of Oregon,
welcomed the president and extended
to him the freedom of the whole state.
The . president responded in well
chosen words. Messrs Wannamaker and
Rusk s'poke briefly. There were large
delegations from surrounding towns.
Great crowds gsithered at every sta
tion between Salem and Portland, but
the only stops were at Chemawa,
where "Harrison Institute" is located,
and at Oregon City. Arriving in
Portland at 12 o'clock, noon, on the
5th, the president and party were en
thusiastically received. Preparations
for the reception had Ween m ide on a
grand scale and notwithstanding the
rain the programme was carried out
in full. Upon arriving the party en
tered six carriages and with a proper
escort drove across the river to Port
land, where the procession was formed
in five divisions. The first was a
military division. Four mounted'
police rode in advance to clear the
streets and were followed by. a platoon
of police. Then came the marshal of
the day ar.d aids, the fourteenth reg -ment,
infantry, three companies t f
infantry from the Bishop Scott acade
my, First regiment, O. N. G., Battery
A, First regiment, O. N. G., all fol
lowed in the order named. The other
divisions were composed of a number
of the societies of Portland, State
Board of Trade, Chamber ot Com
merce, Builders' Exchange, a number
of the trades unions, G. A. R., cavalry
from Vancouver, U. S., state and for
eign officers, paid fire department,
veteran firemen, etc., etc. Brass
bands led the various divisions. The
review took place from the postoffice,
and the party dined at "The Port
land" at half-past 5. The speeches
were made at the Exposition building,
all of which were expressive of a
hearty welcome on tho part of the
citizens and of high appreciation on
the part of the visitors. The party
left for the Sound at 1 o'clock a. m.
on the 6tn.
There is more catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put to
gether, and until the last few years was sup
posed to be incurable. For a great many
years doctors pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and by con
stantly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional dig
ease, and therefore reqires constitutional
treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufac
tured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio,
is the only constitutional cure on the mar
ket It is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a te'aspoonful. It acts directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address,
