They are getting aroused to the importance of good county roads up in Baker county. The whole state will be awake to this ques tion before Ion?. Then something will be done. Statesman. The following is a summary of the business transacted at the cus tom house in this city during the year ending June 30th: Vessels entered from foreign ports, 83; ves sels cleared for foreign ports, 123; vessels entered from domestic ports, 195; vessels cleared for do mestic ports, ' 153. Receipts from all sources. $617,511; expenses, $46,166. Oregonian. "West Virginia claims to have a greater variety of hardwood tim ber than any other State in the Union, and intends to make a mag nificent display of it at Chicago. The State building will be con structed on plans which will admit the use of nearly every kind of lumber produced in the State and is expected to be one of the most attractive buildings of this kind at the fair; Now the South comes to the front with a cyclone that wiped out a part of Baton Rouge, La., and blew down the state peniten tiary, killing people promiscu ously This is another good ad vertisement for Oregon, where we rest in perfect security from such disastrous disturbances of the ele ments. It seems that no section east of the Rockies is safe from cyclones. The Oregonian is again whoop ing up the Ooos bay country and Marshfield and its suburbs will, in twenty-five years be as big as Portland is now. But there are there Oregon coast points of which the same may be truthfully said and certainly predicted but which the Oregonian overlooks; and so do the people of Portland, the result being that San Francisco is getting their trade. Statesman. An Indiana farmer recently com mitted suicide, and the coroner's jury, composed of his fellow-farmers, brought in a verdict that he killed himself "in a fit' of despond ency over the increase of taxes un der the new democratic appraise ment law of the state." If that appraisement law is so se vere upon the farmers as would appear from this, we may con fidently look to see a heavy repub lican majority in the Hoosier state this fall. Ex. The practicability of telegraph ing without wires has recently been demonstrated by the success of experiments. Not long ago Mr. Preece, the head electrician of the postal telegram system in England, succeeded in establishing commu nication across- the Solent to the Isle of Wright, and telegraphed also across the river Severn with out wires, merely using earth plates at a sufficient distance apart. It is now proposed to make a prac tical use of this system in com municating with light ships. The first work in the actual con struction of the World's Fair build ings at Chicago was begun on Fri day. Some people may think this was unlucky but it is worth noting that the building on which the work was begun is to be the wo man's building and was designed by a woman. This is another proof that women don't let a superstition interfere with them when they make up their minds to get ahead of men. Any day will do for them 60 long as they get there- San Jose Mercury. In the death of Hon. T. E Cauthorn Corvallis loses an honest and respected citizen. A man who has devoted his entire life as a public beneiactor. , lie was one ot Oregon's most able and usel'u citizens. A staunch and true friend to the State Agricultura College, and every legitimate pub lie enterprise for the good of the community in which he lived Although his political views dif fered from those of the Gazette his place at the wheel of action which moulds our city, county and state government will be hard to fill. Corvallis has made a long stride forward in the establishment of the carriage factory here. Al ready other manufacturing enter prises are being talked of, some of which are assuming a definite shape and will no doubt come in due time. Many of our farmers are beginning to see the need of a cannery here, and are falling into line and are willing to take stock in such an enterprise. Ere another season rolls by it is sate to say say that this enterprise, on a solid financial footing, will be establish ed in Corvallis. An ice factory, and starch factory are talked of, and there is reason to believe that before many seasons pass a large agricultural implement manufac tory will be established here Manufacturies is what we need to make Corvallis a live and pushing city. They bring outside money here, furnish employment to la borers, turnisli openings lor new business, and enhance the value of our property. Hence every citizen and every business man should lend a helping hand to every le gitimate enterprise that offers to come here. If you cannot aid it financially yourself, you can speak a kind word for it and use your influence among your friends who can help it along. TORTURINGECZEMA! Editor Iowa Plain Dealer Cured of In suffrrable Itching; and Fain by the Cuticura. Remedies. No Lena Than Fire Physicians Consulted. Their Combined Wismom Followed Without Jinnefit. I am sixtv-six years old. In August, 1889. was trnubled with the peculiar skin disease to which people of my ae are sub ject, known among medical men as eczema. Its tint appearance was near the ankles. It rapidly extended over the lower extremi ties until my legs were nearly one raw sore; from legs the trouble extended across the hips, shoulders and the entire length of the arms, the legs and arms greatly swollen with an itching, burning pain, without ces sation. Although the best medical advice attainable was employed, no less than five physicians of the place being consulted and the prescriptions bi'in2 the result of their combined wisdom, the disease, though ap parently checked, would recur in a few days as bad as ever; during its progress my weight fell away about twenty-five pounds. As an experiment I began the use of Ccti cuba. following the simple and plain in structions given with the Remedies, and in four weeks found myself well, with skin soft and natural in color, the itching and pain entirely relieved.

The efficiency with which the Bureau of Animal Industry of the United States Agricultural Depart ment is now conducting the super vision of the live stock exported from this country has been re cently very strikingly illustrated. Some weeks since the British authorities at Liverpool condemn ed two steers shipped to that port from tins country, giving thefacts and stating the numbers on the tags borne by the animals. The bureau at Washington at once set about tracing the steers. Both of them were shipped from Baltimore. One was traced to the Pittsburg stock yards, and thence to the farm where it was bred in Ohio; the other was also traced to the farm where it came from in Mary land. The promptness with which this was done shows that the bureau has now a more thorough watch upon cattle shipped from this country to Europe than Eu rope has upon anything which she sends to us. It may also be noted that upon investigation no conta- . A r 1 the cattle on the larms where these steers came from, nor has there been any such disease known in the sections where the farms are for many years past. San Jose Mercury.

It is a relief to pick up a new hook that is at ODce thrilling, romantic, wholesome, pure and true. Such a work is "Footprints ot the World s History, the latest and greatest work of the two celebrated histor ians, John Ulark fSidpatli and Wm. S. Bryan. These distinguished gentlemen, having won their laurels by independent writings, have co operated on this work. and produced a gem "of the purest ray serene. It is not a dry uninteresting statement of the iIain facta, but rather each of the most important events of his tory has been' taken up and described by a master of language, who holds the reader entranced as he wends his way along the path of history, following carefully in the footprints of progress. VVe are delighted with this superb vol ume. Perfect in thought, superb in style, and magnificent in execution. The bind- ngs are sumptuous, as are also the many llustraticns and colored plates. The Pub lishers have rightly concluded that such a gem should have a rich setting. it is a valuable addition to iiterature. It is a book for the old as well as the young; the married as well as the single; the gay as well as the grave. Everybody will read it with equal eagerness and profit. It is sold only through agents, and the publishers' ad vertisement appears in another column. THE BRAVEST FIVE HUNDRED. Very few people know that in the late civil war, out of the thousands of heroes on the rolls, but five hundred were awarded the coveted distinction of the medal of hon or. The record of many of the exuloits for which the medal has been given shows that they have been as grand as any in the a; of chivalry, and that they shed a brilliant uster upon our national escutcheon. A new work just published tells the story of many of thee heroes. It is grand, thrill ing, exciting. Among the stories told by the boys iu blue themselves are the follow ing: "A Minnesota Bov's First Battle." "Fighting Joe's Men," "A Hero of Autie tain," "Foiling an Assassin," "The Soldier Scout's Story," "Three Thinking Bayonets," "The Salient at Spottsylvania," Mars and Cupid at Gettysburg," "At the Cannon's Mouth," etc., etc. The work is beautifully illustrated with battle scenes and war pic tures, also portraits of the gallant men who won the medal. Such a work is sure of an enormous sale in any community. Everv old soldier's heart will beat with pride in reading it, and those who love deeds of daring and adventure will be infatuated with the modest, manly way in which these brave nieu tell their story. The work is called "The Bravest 500 of '61." It is sold only by suliscription, by the well-known l,ubJlshlDg house, The History Company of San Frant:iaco. VVe call attention to their advertisement jn another column. ARRIVED! A GAR - LOAD OF Flano Binders, Mowers, Hay Rakes Best Goods! BOTTOM PRICES! Call and Examine Samples now on hand.
