"These questions li.ave all . been pretty well discussed and Jhere will lje no excuse fur any : person to go to the polls with out being thoroughly informed on every point. This will be an election, m iwhieu reason and judgment will un doubtedly riilu. If you think it best tor all interests that these improve ments. should be made, vote for them; if, on the contrary, yon believe it bet ter for this not to be done, then vote against them. But, whatever way you vote, abide by the result without kick ing. Remember that there are people who hold opinions different from youf own; these people have just as much right to their beliefs as yeu have to yours, and if they should be in the m jority, just accept their decision as final and for the best, all things con sidered. ' Inform yourself on all points and then vote conscientiously and if you find that your neighbor is not so well informed do all you can to make matters clear to his mind, and then accept the result philosophically, re flecting thf.t Corvallis is right in the swim and is bound to go ahead do matter what is done. Following are the voting places: First ward, the C. B. Starr house on the west side of Second street, between and .Washington streets: second ward, the council room m the court house; third ward, Jas. A.

Grant & Wells are" in the field for business and hope by fair and honorable dealing to merit a share of the public patronage. We jotn their friends in wishing ' them the success they deserve. . (.,. Money eor the College. The state treasurer received Monday from the United States government the sum of $18,000 which is appropriated un der an act of congress August 30, 1890, for tTie benefit of colleges of agricul ture and mechanics. The law pro vides that either the legislature or the governor shall designate the college to receive the benefit, and as the Oregon legislature was not in session, Gov ernor Pennoyer has given it to the state agricultural college at Corval lis. Under the conditions State Treasurer Metchan does not feel au thorized to place the draft in the state treasury and receipt for it, as there, would be no way to get it out again.so he has decided to pay it direct to the college. : A draft of $15,000 was re ceived by this" state from the same source about wp years ago and yester day the Washington treasurer received $18,000 to be used in the same man ner.

The Homestead, Cceur d'Alene, and the switchemn's strike at Buffilo have fur. nished column after column of news for the daily and w sckly papers of the country. Even the newsboys have caught the fever. ; A dispatch from Portland, dated the 16th mst, says: The newsboys refused to sell the Ore goniau this morning or allow it a be sold on the streets. They claim that the Orogonian had raised on the price, charging them three cents a copy, whereas they, had . been getting seven copies for 20 cents. They demand the paper at 2 cents per copy.. The Oregonian states that there had been no advances,.- The boys had a street demonstration with banners and tin hoini The discoveiy has been "made that on one .side of the new quarter-dollar there ar thirteen separate representa tions of the number thirteen. It was probably the intention of the designer of the new. silver piece to have the number thirteen - to' occur thirteen times, and thus break the thirteen su perstition, but there are few people who have noticed this fact. There are thirteen stars, thirteen letters in the scroll held in the eagle's beak, thirteen marginal feathers in each wing, thirteen tail leathers, thirteen parallel ljnes iu the shield, thirteen horizontal bars, thirteen arrow heads in one foot, thir teen leaves on the branch in the other foot, and thirteen letters in the word "quarter dollar." Direct Road Tax. The following irom tne woodburn World tells ot a matter of a good deal of importance to cities paying road taxes that are spent entirely outside the limits of the city oilverton is after the county court and wants its money paid out in direct road tax, about $500, refunded to the city for use upon the streets. Wood burn should take similar action. An application should be made for the money. In all probability a test case will be made by the city of Salem, and if decided favorably to the city then Woodburn would receive the money paid out by its citizens in direct road tax. IcnntinpiM: of ..F.n i . . w v i " --- v-j-w nwjawrc rr duel, iawt.oaal exhibit at the worfdV fain Orenian: " The Albany Democrat thinks it is about time Yaquina bay had its sea serpent story if it would become dis tinguished in the eyes of the world." Newport and Yaquina bay do not need a "fake" or sensational story to boom it as a seaside resort. Its many genu ine and popular attractions for pleasure seeker is its best drawing card as is demonstrated by the immense crowds of summer visitors continually pouring in every day from all parts of the slate, It has been estimated that fully 10, 000 people have visited this popular resort already this season, and tho sea son is only abont half over. .Watch Drawing Last Monday, as advertised, the drawing for the watches took place at, Nolan's clothing store. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon the tickets for the silver watch were placed by a committee in a box and thoroughly shuffled. Little Sophia Beck then drew out the winnimg ticket, No. 149, held bv Geor mompson. lue process was repeat ed in drawing for the gold watch, captured by R C Kiger with No. 570. Both watches were at ouce turned over to the winners. Professor Condon at Newport. Professor Thomas Condon, of Eur?ue. - o state geologist, is spending bis vacation among the rocks and tertiary deposits at Newport, Yaquina bay. Professor Condon is an enthusiast in his study, and -is gathering a most valuable col fectioa in his researches. Among the specimens lie is most proud of are petri fied clams that grew to an enormous size; and were in existence before the The excursion to Yaquimi bay last Saturday by the Second Regiment band of Salem, was the largest one whicl has gone over this season. Nearly 300 people went, yet Newport accommoda iou an oi mem witn ease. The one going from here on the 27th ought to be and probably will be fully as large Many who are unable to spare the time from business and professional duties eagerly embrace the opportunity to spend a day at the seaside which these excursions afford,' and as the prices are quits low, almost everybody can afford to indulge in the pleasuie, . . For the World's Fair. A. J. Johnson, of Astoria, is visiting the Cascade.; and C.ist, ranges of moun tains for the purpose of selecting orna mental trees and shrubs indigenous to this portion of the state, which are to be sent to the world's fair. Last week he visited this city, and ascended Mary's peak, where he made several elections. He expects to returni'in about six weeks to dig them up and ship to Chicago. ' They aie to ' be planted on the roof of the women's building, which will be made to rep resent a miniature forest and flower garden. The Astorian says , of Pro Shaw, chemist at the Oregon agricultural college, who has been attending the general assembly of the Chautauqua cir cle recently in session'at Astoria: "The assembly is greatly iudebted to Prof. Shaw, who shows how much instruc tion in the truest science can be- given by a few simple tubes Hi d reagents when a genuine teacher is behind them. Probably no man in the state has a more accurate grasp of the prin ciples of chemistry, or a more excel lent gift of setting them forth. Marine Band Excursion. An ex cursion to the bay will be given on Sat urday, August 27th, by the Marine band of this city. An effort is being made to get the bands of McMinnville and Independence to participate in the affair, which the boys , are deter mined shall not be eclipsed by any other one vet given.

" .. , ;43$ I As state laat week.it waar'oar good for tune to become guest oTbavid Knble and his estimable family, rturinj our stay-in the pretty little town of Waldport. Mr. Ruble was among the first of those" pio neois who braved the trials and hardships of crossing tne plains with . his falriily .tq build np a home for them in this great Wil. lamette Valley, now the eldorado of the north Pacific coast ; He first settled, ia the town of Eola, Polk; county, at one time the capital ot the state. Oil bis old homestead, now owned by O. P. Beardsley, is growing one of the finest peach orchards and most ex tensive nop yards in tbe state, , Some g5 years ago; Mr. Ruble moved to Benton county, and located at Waldport, at that time a portion of the Indian reservation, and has made that, and Alse valley his home ever einqe. . The old Indian graves, the numerous shell mounds and curious re! ics, stone end flint' knives, chisels, arrow and spear heads, etc., ed, perhaps, by the Indians a cents ry ago, to be found in all the country surrounding Waldport, afford a mine of pleasure for the geologist tmd the curiosity seeker. Some of the finest speci mens of these tone tools and implements, made and used, by the.Bavages long before the advent of the white settlers, are to 'be found aud picked op at this place. Waldport is situated on the south side of Alsea 1 bay, near . its entrance, and is the trading point for all that section of the country south along the coast to the Sius law, some 40 miles, and from the settle ments along the Alsea river and its tributa ries, from Alsea valley to Tidewater. On tne north side of the bay are two stores, owned by Mr. Lntgens and Mr. Sheppard respectively, which catcli the trade from this section. The poatoffioe of Lutgens, and two canneries are also located here. One of the cinneries being the pro perty of Henry Nice, well known in Corval. lis. The fishing season had just commenced aud tne cannerymen and fishermen were busily engaged in ; preparing and. caring for the season's catch. The returns from this industry alone, has brought in to the people of this section more than $40,000 during a single season. Alsea bay, before many years, is destined to become one of the important harbors of the Pacific coast. : It is about tke same size as Yaquina bay, and could b; made a safe harbor for large vessels, at a conservative cost for government improvements; as it is, vessels drawing from twelve to fifteen feet of water can eome in aud out with perfect safety. No vessel has ever yet been wreck ed while crossiug ia or out over the b;ir, TJrgant steps have been taken by the resi dentf and those interested, to secure an ap propriation for the improvement of the-harbor, and have succeded, through the efforts of our Oregon representatives, in having an item inserted in tbe river and harbor bill, which became a law durirjg the session f congress just closed, providing funds for a survey of the harbor, and aa estimate of the cost of such permanent improvemanta as may be ceeeesaryf - . . Two steamers, the Chance and W. H. Harrison, make regular trips from San Fran cisco to Waldport and other coast points, the latter vessel being built at Waldport some two years ago, by Harrison Bros., who own a large saw mill there, and carry on an extensive trade iu spruce.and cedar .lumber. The development of the vast natural re- simrces of this section of Benton county hs been greatly ret irded for want of good wag on roads, and better means f access to the i surrounding settlements. Tho people living -along the upper river, rely altogether upon scows and email row boats as a me-ins of travel and transportation of their freight and provisions. During the present summer, Mr. Sheppard has fitted up a trim little steamer, which, carries passengers and freight to and from "the head of ' tide, a great convenience to the settlers. The en tire produce of the country is eicher shipped by steamer to Sail Francisco, or hauled by teams 14 miles ap tbe beach to ..Newport. Through the tireless efforts of the citizens of Waldport aud the settlers of Alsea valley they have secured, an appropriation for a Wagon road from upper Alsea to Waldport. All ths road has been built, with the excep tion of about sis or seven miles, from the head of tide to Waldport, this will be com pleted aud opened to the public by next summer, thus affording a direct route to the markets of Corvallis. This road, will be the means of developing a large amount of coun try iu Benton couuty, heretofore almost iu- accessaule. Aonther road of great .impor tance to the bay district, is being opened from Tolsdo to tbe month of the bay,' on the north side-. While the people of Waldport and Alsea bay are not favored with many of the convenient improvements, such as railroads comuuications, etc, as we of the older settled distii ti of the Willamette valley, they seem, as a class, to lead an easy life and to be contented with their lot; ami why not t the bay faruisbes thorn with ai abundance - of clams, "oysters aud fish, and the hills and mountains, with plenty ot game, bear, deer and elk; and the flowers with the finest . honey ' produced in the world, of which thousands of pounds are exported annually. - .T ..

" ' The principal exports of, Waldport is spruce and cedar lumber, live stock, salmon, butter, bides, potatoes, honey4 and cranber ries. ' ' -The country surrounding Waldport differs from that of the Yaquiua country from the fact that it is more level and much of it is covered with a dense growth': of greeu tim. ber spruce, fir, cedar and hemlock, which some day when manufactured into lumber w ill add thousands of dollars to the wealth of Benton county. . ...... At present the only saw mill on the bay is that owned by Harrison "Bros., at Wald port. At the time of our visit they were busy gsttiug out the timbers for a bridge, the contract for which was recently let by the county court to Gideon & Uul.Ie, to be built across the Slough at Waldport, end iu turning out 4000 salmon cases for Henry Nice's cannery, also lumber for several new dwelling bouses, among which was that of James Doty. . After a two days' visit at Waldport we concluded to continue our journey down the coast. But just before leaving we ran across Uncle Jimmy Collins, the old war veteran and politician, Unle Jimmy, al though not hale and hearty as he used to be, 8 atiil the leading authority on all political issues of the day. He feels confident that Harrison will be elected by a handsome ma jority, and thiuks that Cleveland should be dropped out of the political, areua for bis actions ana gross insults against the old soldiers during his administration.
