A vote is to be taken on the "state flower." Dr. F. M. Carter one of the dele See display in! gates to the republican county conven tion was among the callers at this of fice last Tuesday. The doctor has for the past 13 years been in the active service of the government as a phys ician at the Siletz Indian agency. He has recently resigned his position there and removed to his ranch at Elk City where he will reside in the futuie. Mm. Lafe Wilson and family, ac companied by Miss Lena Briggs, left to-day on a visit to Arthur St Clair's ranch near Chitwood. Arthur has purchased 160 acres of land of M. L. Trapp on which he is establishing a poultry ranch. He has imported a large number of blooded fowls and proposes that in the future Beuton county shall be in a position to carry off her share of prizes at the poultry shows. Arthur s numerous friends unite in wishing him every success in his enterprise No Official Exhibit.- The world's fair 'commission ol the state chamber of commerce has decided that Oregon will not be represented officially and as a state at the Columbian exposition and unless private enterprise takes the matter in hand there will be no move ment made in the matter at all, with the exception of the state board of horticulture, and even they are not ab solutely confident of success in this line. The cause for this official back out in that the efforts and suggestions made by the commission have failed to en I is t sufficient co-operation and finan cial support to warrant further effor by the committee to this end, and be lieving that if it is understood by the people of the state that no further at tempt will be made by the committee, private enterprise, if heartily enlisted in the works, may produce measurably creditable results. They have, there fore, made public announcement of their withdrawal from further action in respect to canvassing for contributions for providing for such an exhibit as they have vainly labored to secure, and relegate the work to private enter- REPUBLICAN CONVENTION, WHAT.

A very neat 40 page catalogue has just been issued by the Corvallis Carriage and Wagon Co. It contains illustrations and des criptions of more than thirty different styles ot vehicles winch tliey are pre pared to supply from their factory in this city. Special mention should be made of a buggy made after their own particular plans to which the name of the Corvallis buggy has been given, lis a vehicle fit for royalty itself. The following is an extract from their war ranty: "We wanant all vehicles manufactured by us to be made of good material, and should any break age occur within one year from date of purchase from us, by reason of de fective material or workmanship, repairs will be furnished to same free of charge." These catalogues will serve another useful purpose, too. It will advertise Corvallis much better than many times the number of pam phlets describing our climate and soil People do not always believehe state ments in nicely written articles about the advantages of a locality, but the carriage company's catalogue contains convincing proof of the reality. In the way of facilities this factory is in a position to compete successfully with any, other concern in the country. The equipment in the way of tools and machinery is not equaled by any other manufacturery in this line. Then again, the immense floor space gives ample room to carry along the work slowly in the painting department, allowing plenty of time between coats, and insuring a durability to be obtained in no other way. Forgery at Independence. The Independence National bank has lost $192 by a clever forgery last week. A check was presented and cashed which purported to be signed by W. E. Wil liams. It has now been proven that Mr. Williams did not execute the check.

Keadt for Representative. The republicans of Multnomah county have nominated W. P. Kealy for represen tative. There is not the slightest doubt that he will be elected and his past ex perience in. the lower house will make him a wheel horse next January. Keady was formerly a Benton county man and has a large number of friends, here, where he is known to be a good politician. The republican county convention was ailed to order Monday at 11 a. m. by Sol King, chairman of the county central com mittee. W. S. Hufford was elected tem porary chairman and J. H. Wilson tem porary clerk. Committees on credentials, order of business, and organization, ap pointed and the meeting adjourned until 1:30 p. ni.

Crosno, J. J. Winant, Geo. A Wagoner, T. H. Cooper, Lee Henkle, Miles T. Starr and J. H. W ilson.

J ustice Applegate, of Salem, last Tuesday sent the fiftieth boy to the reform school. The lads name is Guy Osborne. This last addition brings the number of in mates at the reform school to the limit of its capacity. The building cannot accommodate more than it now does and the question now arises, what shall be done with the boys who will be committed between now and th convening of the next legislature ? Use Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder. IF YOU WISH TO AVOID THE TWIN DRUGS, ALUM AND AMMONIA Dr. H. Endemann, for twelve years chemist of the New York Board of Health, in his paper read before the American Chemical Society at Washington, in October, 1891, states that an ammonia baking powder acts on the gluten of the flour, altering its chemical properties, and cites numerous high authorities to; prove "its injurious effect on the stomach and kidneys. 1 - Liebig the great chemist says: "The use of alum in bread is very injurious, and it is very apt to disorder the stomach and occasion acidity and dyspepsia." The- following, powders are" known-to . contain-either ammonia- or alunr or--both: Royai;..aucago Yeasty Calumet, Bon m,.TayM's- One .Spotty Unrivaled Forest' Ci,Snow JBa, Probably Akotiikb Cokventioji. The indications are that the people's party mass convention that was held in Salem on Fri day had their work for nothing. It will be remembered that there were only sixty-one advocates of this cause present at this con vention, which according to section 32 of the Australian ballot lav was not sufficient by thirty-nine members. A part of this section says: "An assembly of electors, !iL! . il . ... . nuiu me meaning ot tnis act, is an or ganized body of not less than 100 electors of the state or electoral divisions thereof for which the nomination is made." This is the law as made by the past legislature and it cannot be construed differently. - In re gard to the prohibition state convention held at Portland on Thursday where there were only fifty persons in convention, the Telegram says: "The new Australian bal lot law is likely to make trouble in the pro. hibition camp. In fact, it has done so already. The law nullifies the so-called county convention which they held at the Masonic, hall on Wednesday of last week. It was not a county convention because the prohibitionists did not have a warrant to hold one as they did not poll their per cent, of the county electors in June, 1890. Neither was the meeting an assembly of electors within the meaning of the law, as there were not 100 electors present, only fifty-two being enrolled. A ticket, how ever, was not chosen that day, and the meeting adjourned sine die, but before do ing so it empowered the committee to make up a ticket. In doing so it delegated a power which it did not possess, on ac count of its own deficiency. The prohi bitionists now realize the situation they are in, and steps are being taken to rectify matters. It is not known when this will be done, but Chairman Weister. of the state committee, says that a full connty ticket will be nominated. A new conven tion is about the only way out of the dif ficulty, and it will be called at an early date, so say those most interested.'' A representative for a San Francisco tailoring house took a number of orders this week -from men in Roseburg for suits. Tle Plaindealer believes a little protective tariff in the shape of licensing such agents by the town would be a good policy. There are two tailoring establishments here, and they pay their just proportions of school, county and state taxes, while the San Francisco house pays nothing. The same suggestion would be applicable to Corvallis. The re cent experience of one of our prominent citi zens with an irresponsible traveling agent is ample evidence that such men have no re gard for their promises and representations so long as they get their money. The home merchant has a reputation at stake and as a rule will furnish such articles as you may desire even if he does not carry them in stock, at a more reasonable price than agents. The merchants should be protected in all legitimate enterprises. OH THE WAR PATH! We are on the war path for the Clothing and Men's Furnishing trade of Benton county.
