THE CORVALLIS GAZETTE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 2S, 1891. ISSUISD EVKHY FRIDAY JIORN1NO BY FRANK COIDTO'VEIR.. SUBSCRIPTION RATtfr Per Year 2 00 8 x Months, 1 00 Three Months, 75 Stag le Copies e Year (when not naid in advance! 2 SO Thrre is a good demand at pres ent in Corvallis for carpenters and mechanics and building is going ' on at a rapid rate. There is another "sure cure" for drunkenness announced', but the trouble in this locality seems to be that the drunkards don't want to Be cured. Jerry Simpson has come out for Springer for Speaker and that is thought tr have settled what lit tle chance poor Springer had in the race. It is hard to reconcile the oft re peated statement in the democrat ic newspapers of bitter enmity ex isting between the President and J. S. Clarkson and the fact that Mr. Clarkson was recently a guest for several days at the President ial cottage at Cape May Point. H. Seton Karr, a member of the English parliament, has been investigating the Harney Peak Tin Mining Company, and he found the outlook so favorable that he made the prediction that the United States would soon be ship ping, tin to England. Tin's is ter rible news for those who are op posed to American industry. Ex-Representative Kelly, of Kansas, who is charged with hav-ifig-left the republican party to become- a- member of the People's party for the purpose of getting the geat now so ably filled in the United States Senate by Preston B. Plumb, will not only have to wait a long while, but he will have to do lots of growing, before he can fill tlie seat. The world is getting upside down. Ex-Senator Ingalls has been most cordially received in the South, where he has been lec turing; and the- fire-eating news papers which have for years repre sented him as a sort of nineteenth century political Mephisto, ever ready to devour the Southern Gretchen, received his lectures with the most fulsome praise, several of them declaring, in the flowery language peculiar to the editorial columns of that section, that he was the ablest orator of the age: The alleged friendship between Governor Hill and Mr. Cleveland does not' prevent the friends of these gentlemen from rapping each other over the head just as often as a chance occurs, and there aTe reasons for the belief that each of the gentlemen named has in his possession a large and keen knife which he proposes to use upon the other next year, if it becomes necessary. The knowledge of these facts is the foundation of the Gorman boom; his friends calcu late that Cleveland and' Hill have killed each other's opportunities and that both sides will support Gorman. But will they? The English newspapers are full of wails because of the trade lost to that country and gained to the United States through the McKin ley. tariff law, but the democratic newspapers of this country still persist in their absurd efforts to convince people against the evi dence of their owTt eyes, that the law is injuring the United States. Prosperity was ever the poison of the democratic party, and for that reason - its newspapers oppose everything calculated to make this country more prosperous. On the contrary" the republican party has ever thrived on prosperity ancVftas every reason- for believing that the present wave of prosperity will in 1892 put it again in control of all Branches of the government. INVEST NOW. The Northwestern Financier gives a little timely advice in the following: Now is the time to invest in the west. In twenty years active ex perience in the investment busi ness we have never seen better opportunities for safe and profit able investment in Western secu rities than are to be had at this time. There is no inflation of values. Real estate valueations are now on a conservative basis much more so than for two or three years prior to 1891. The present good crops all over the west are sure to improve prices and create more demand for real estate. The depression has culmi nated. We do not look for any rapid recovery, but firmer prices. There will be less property offered for sale and more buyers. Farm ers who are unable to meet pay ments will be able to sell their farms. At the present time, when all speculation and inflation are eliminated, there is absolutely no excuse for accepting insuffici ent securities. The investor buy ing securities now from any of the leading and well-known reliable investment companies takes less risk than at any previous time during the past five years. The demand for money is good, and by a class of borrowers who want money, not for speculative purposes, but for legitimate im provements, and who have the ability to pay interest and princi pal. Many good school, and other municipal bonds, are being offered throughout the Northwest, which are sate as Government bonds. The laws are stringent governing these issues, and only a limited amount are authorized by, law. No instance of default in this class of securities in the Northwest has come to our knowledge. The Financier will take pleasure in answering any inquiries on this subject, and give more definite in formation to any one interested, or refer to reliable parties who will do so. Wheat is steadilv on the rise. with good prospects for a dollar a bushel. OREGON WEATHER REPORT. FOR WESTERN OREGON, FOR WEEK ENDING SATURDAY, AUGUST 22. 1891. Rain fell on the night of the 17th and on the 18th, throughout this section in amount of from .10 to .20 of an inch except in Jose phine and Jackson counties where only a few drops fell. The tem perature was below the average in tha fore part of the week, but rose rapidly towards the close un til to-day when it was from 90 to 100 degrees, except along the coast. CROPS. The rain did no damage to the grain, but delayed harvesting and threshing for one daj There was some slight benefit in the rain to corn and vegetables. Winter wheat is all cut and most of it threshed; spring grain i3 being cut. Some smut exists in Douglas and Jackson counties. " Grain is yield ing better than was expected in every county; 56 bushels per acre from a 16 acre field is reported from Yamhill county; in Polk county the wheat generally aver aged over 30 bushels per acre; most counties have an average yield of from 25 to 35 bushels per acre. The wooly aphis is doing damage to orchards in Yamhill county. The onion crop was in jured by lice in Washington coun ty, but as the acreage was increas ed the total crop will be above the average. Hop growers expect to gather a very fair average crop. In J Douglas, Jackson and Curry coun ties the first crop of figs are over and the second crop is now setting. The early peaches are about over and the second crop will be ripe next week, several car loads a day are being shipped from Jaekson county. Josephine county is ship ping three car loads a day of wat ermelons. Fruit frying is in pro- i;it.-ss. Generally speaking it would make little, if any, difference to the average republican or to the party at large whether Wilkinson Call be recognized as a senator from Florida for the six years be ginning with the 4th of March '91, or whether it be some other demo crat, but circumstances have given Mr. Call's case an unusual interest The governor of Florida has stated that he proposes refusing to issue a certificate to Mr. Call, taking the ground that he was not legally elected to the senate, although he received a majority of the whole number of votes cast at a joint ses sion of the Florida legislature held on the 26th of last May. Mr, Call's election is claimed by him under the federal statute of 1866 governing senatorial elections. The hearing of this case by the senate committee on elections, of which Senator Hoar, an able con stitutional lawyer, is chairman, will be one of the interesting events of the next session of Con gress, and its decision will doubt less serve as a precedent in settling future disputes of a similar nature.
