A CANNERY AT ; LAST. More than .a year ago the Gazette began the agi tation of the canneiy ques tion. It seemed at times that the ag itation was going to be futile, and again theie would be encouragement to inspire renewed determination, in! or der to arouse the public ruind on the importance of the matter. So the Ga- ' zette has kept firing away.; aiid at last there are eyident indications of ap proaching reality. Sure enough Cor vallis is to have a cannery, lue parties responsible for .the scheme do not wish to have their names' mentioned at this time, but they assure us that the institution will be backed with plenty, of capital, and that it is gojng to be run on a first-class ' business JjasisV An evaporator-for. fruits and a jelly contrivance-will -bo among .the prominent features of the concern, As wcll.as vinegar and cider works and an arrangement for'pickling purposes. Parties, appointed for the purpose, are now away investigating other canner ies, to gain points of information that may prove quite profitable in the con struction of the cannery. The Gazette, as well as the other papers of this city that have assisted in pushing the mut ter ahead, takes a pardonable pride in the cannery movement, having been one of its staunchest advocates since the agitation began many months ago. It will do all within its power to further the interests of the movement, and hopes before the lapse of another year to see a first-class cannery doing a first class business in Corvallis. The Flag Raising. The childrsn of ihe public school manifested an unu sual degree of interest at the flag raising exercises last Friday afternoon. Supt. E. B McEh-oy, F. M. Johnson and T. Graham made appropriate remarks to the assembled-pupils in the hall, . which was filled to its-utmost capacity.- The rooms were profusely decorated with bunting and ornamented with flowers. Many recitations were listened to. Prof. McElroy said he was much pleas ed with the work, and the board ex pressed satisfaction. The children had a right to feel a great interest in the matter, as the $ag was purchased with their own money. Lessons of patriot ism to the youth make loyal men "and women in the years to come,-so these efforts have not' been wasted. Prof. ijianciiara deserves credit tor the suc cess of the occasion. : "- . More Manufactures. At the of fice of the secretary of state, Salem, last Tuesday,. David Morris, V, Q. Adams-and S. T. Jeffreys filed articles iucorpoiating the -Corvallis Foundry and Manufacturing Company, with the proposition to conduct and operate a foundry and machine shop in this , city representing a capital stock of $10,000. Immediate steps are being taken to ward the establishment of this import ant institution,"and Corvallis will soon be justly considered a manufacturing center, with the action on the "faet." Work on the new.fou&dry is now' an . progress, and it -will ! shortly be in a, throughly repaired condition and ready for operations. Mr. Adams "will-soon move up frQijn-Portlan.d wjtlhis -faini-r-ly and permanently, lc;ate.ih "Cforval- lis, where his time and attention will be devoted to the interests of this in stitution. Silly '"Sanctity. Rev. Morgan's new doctrinal disquisition on "Scriptur al precepts delivered by. him at the oi-. ei'a house in this city the past week called out unusual attendances of cu rious people. They made good music for many, of our citizen's, but it ap peared that they didn't make anything else. v He made very" little impression on his hearers, and ' his spurious ure- dictions will have vanished before the dawn of the coming springtime, when he says seven years of suffering for mankind will begin. Mr. Morgan ex alts himself above angelhood, for the Truth declares that of "His (Christ's) day and coming, no man "shall know, not even the angels in heaven." We deny hini the privilege of being . a prophet or the spn' of a prophet'. - - ' Increased Assessment. City As sessor J. M. Porter has completed the city assessment roll, and the extension of. the corporate limits of the city puts 1 11 ' ..-.'. considerable increase on me totais. The total valuation of real estate ag gregates $619,400; of personal prop erty, $328,234; total valuation of all property, $947,4 34; .. mJebtediie-s, $213,579; exemptions, 21,740, leaving the alue of the total taxable prrpr v $712,315. The tax levy,' which will be five mills, will run the total amount of taxes to $3,561.57, an increase over last year of $1,175.48. This will make a good showing in the city's exchequer for the coming year, and the money no doubt will be applied to beneficial requirements. Resuming River Traffic. The ecent rains are bringing tne river to a good boating stage. More . water is coming down every day, and it will but a few daysat the .present rate of rise, until there will be water suf ficient lor resuming river, traffic. The Three Sisters left Portland the other day and is expected to arrive at Corvallis at any time. This is the rs steamer to ply the waters this far this season. It is understood that the Oregon Pacific steamers will run reg ularly almost at once. There are arge quantities of river freight to be moved this year, and when the boats do get regulariystarted there .will" be plenty-of work to keep thein busy for many weeks to come. It is ordered by the decision of the circuit court that the Oregon Pacific railroad be sold at sheriff's sale," and the ninth of December ha beeii named as the date of sale. . The O. P. pay car went over the western division of the road to Yaquina Tuesdayj paying the employes for the mouths of March, April and May. The amount of this payment is. about 30,000. , , COLLEGE NOTES!. ' NEW STUDENTS CONTINUE TO ARRIVE, AND THE.ENROI.LMENT-19 SWELLINGS Mr. Zimmerman is seriously ill, and in consequence. haa'Tiot been able to at tend school during the week. - ' - George Paul has something in his eye. It is about 1G years of age, and George-will have a -tune removing .it if there is not a change some day soon.

YY ill not our exchanges take a -nart in assisting tins young lady in the search for her father, that, should he be found, a heavv burden will be lifted from a weary heart? , A Loyal Subscriber. Philip Philo came up in our sanctum the other day and renewed his subscription to the Gazette for-the year 1892. . There is nothing strange about that, but the fact that Mr. Phile has been a sub scriber to" the Gazette the past 28 years indicates his loyalty to the paper. This is his 29th renewal. We hope he and his devoted companion will en joy life twenty-eight years longer amid the pleasant-surroundings, that now exist - -.' ; - pThe discovery of black' diamonds is reported from Marion county.

A Pure Cream .Tartar Powder " ' - - - - .. .. -.-..- s ' 40 years tie standard. - . . - ;brv Price gives larger, ancl fuller-cans than those of any other Baking Powder ..manufacturer. - Above cut represents the comparative size of one pound can each ''Dr. Price's," Royal" and "Taylor's One Spoon." These cans were set side by side, then photographed .down in exact proportions to admit the plate in this space 'Ask your grocer to set a one pound can of any -other brand alongside 1 lb. Dr; Price's Cream Baking Powder, and observe the difference, as illustrated above. : Adulterated powders may usually be detected by their heavier bulk, as shown by the '6m'all cans,: and these scantily filled, often containing a circular to help fill out the cans.' -It is a singular fact that many of the ammonia and alum baking powders are advertised as "Absolutely Pure,". ' All official : examinations prove that it would be safe to reject all powder's labeled absolutely pure.-- . ' The economy in using Dr. Price's Cream taking Powder does not consist alone in. the fact that .much larger and .fuller cans are giyen, but Dr. Price's is a stronger, purer and more wholesome bak ing powder than any other known. Does better work, and goes farther, hence more: economical in 'every jvay. ; - - What woman would use an ammonia or alum baking powder if she knew it ? Such powders not only iindermine the. health, but ammonia gives to the complexion a sallow and blotched appearance. : y Dr Price's : Cream Baking f Powder "is reported by all authorities as free from ammonia, alum, lime, or any other . adulterant.

Editor Gazette: - Permit an bid resident of' Corvallis and neighboring Linn to resume the place of correspondent of the Gazette, which he vacated fifteen years ago last June. After' residing fourteen years in Northern New York and getting froze up eyery winter, and notwithstanding the extreme heat of summer, hardly getting thawed out,' we made up our mind to again come into the great Willamette valley. Taking advantage of the (Recursions gotten up by. A. Phil ips & Co., of Boston, and conducted by Messrs. WilleXt and Gaton, we had a nice time both in treatment and travolincr as these conductors used their best efforts in pointing cut noted places and seeing to our wants. We left Canton, St. Lawrence coun ty, N. Y., at 12:5CLp. m., Wednesday, October ldth, and. arrived, after stop ping over one day at Sacramento, in Albany on Thursday, the 22d. In the afternoon, we took onf grip and plod ded up the road in Linn, Corvallis ward, and on Fridny morning crossed the river on the new ferry (in place of the old bouys). The new mill came in for a passing glance, and as we .came to Main or Second street, we were al most persuaded that Alladin's lamp had been found and employed in building the numerous brick blocks whith met our1 view. Wishing to see County Clerk Wil son, we found him, not in the old court house where we. used to sit and almost tremble for fear of a collapse, but in the best looking court house we have been in, and which certainly "takes the cake." The public school and tho agricultural college then caught our eye. Corvallis is growing, and that at no snail's pace, and if sho con tinues for the next fifteen years as she has done in the past, she will be up to if not ahead of any town in the Up per Willamette. For fear of tiring the patience of yourself and readers, I will close. . Winning. WHAT IS GOOD BAKING POWDER. It is a well established fact that carbonate ot ammonia, is used by bakers in the prepar ation of the finest and most wholesome bread and cake,' Und has been from time ' immem orial. It. la among the oldest and at the same tinie most healthful constituents of baking powders. It is -all evolved in by the heat of the' oven, and leaves no trace of itself in thotd,'and it is this that gives it its great value as a leavening agent in the opinions of phisicians.
