A union meeting of the Cicer

A company of Los Angelos
capitalists are operating a coal
mine near Toledo at Mill No. 4,
and will market the product in
Los Angelos, Calif. The tunnel
is now 170 feet deep and the vein
thirty-three inches wide, from
which is taken a mineral that an
analysis made at the suggestion ol
Mr. Wallis Nash several years ago
shows the i arae to be a fine quali
ty of lignite. The company have
leased a tract of about 500 acres
and about the first of the month
intend putting on another shift of
workmen. II. A. Bensel has
charge of the mine during the ab
sence of Capt. Ayles, the manager.
The attraction in the window of

last vas a large bromine print of
the O. A. C. football team, sur
mounted by a handsome frame,
the picture being the artistic work
of Prof. Peruot, of the college,
and the frame that of A. F. Peter

there was displayed a beautiful
silkzn banner college color up
on which were the words "Champ
ions of Oregon," and a neatly ex
ecuted monogram of the letters
O. A. C. This by Mr. Leo Stock.
These will be valued additions to
the trophies of the football champ

novel sent The Gazette publishers
an unique reminder of St. Valen

seems to be original and owing to

"THE GAZETTE."
Charley McCullough, the well-
known engineer of the Corvallis
Water Co. has nearly completed a
steam barge which he intends using
as a transport boat for wood and
other farmers' products from upper
river points to Corvallis. lhe
barge was formerly used by Mr.
McCullough as a piledriver. The
engine and new wheel will be
placed in position soon and "The i
Gazette" will be in readiness for
operation by the first of March.
This enterprise will doubtless be a
convenience to many up-river
farmers having wood and other
marketable stuff during seasons of
bad roads when they are unable to
reach the city with teams, and will
also prove a commodity in other
ways. We hope Mr. McCullough
and his associates in the owner
ship of "The Gazette" will be suc
cessful in their new venture, and
that all who avail themselves of
the scheme will be benefited.
Cheap fuel wilf be the result.

A PIANO RECITAL.
Few social
events have
been
given in Corvallis that were more
thoroughly enjoyed than the mus
ical affair given last Saturday
evening at the residence of Mr.
and Mrs. Thomas Callahan. For
several months some fifteen of the
musically inclined ladies of this city
have been associated together in
a musical organization for the pur
pose ot systematically studying the
compositions of the old masters
It has been their custom to meet
Saturday afternoons at the home
of Miss "Hattie Friendly, at which
time parts were assigned to those
who had been appointed for duty
at the next regular meeting. The
study of Schumann occupied their
attention during ' the early fall
while of late their time has been
devoted to Chopin, and at the
meeting in question those present
were entertained with selections
from thee two composers, those of
the latter predominating. In the
rendition of each number ability of
no mean order was displayed and
also evidenced earful study and
lamiliarity with the author's style.
After the musical program had
been rendered the remainder of
the evening was pleasantly spent
with cards and at 11 o'clock dainty
refreshments were served, after
which jokes were cracked galore
Those present were: Mr. and Mrs.
Thos. Callahan, Mr. and Mrs. John
Burnett, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Hus
ton, Prof, and ftlrs. Berchtold,
Prof, and Mrs. F. L. Wa hburn,

A DEMOCRATIC PRAYER.
The following is a prayer uttered
at a democratic convention in Col
orado some time since, and at the
repeated requests of various read
ers of The Gazktie it is repro
duced :
Our almighty and all-powerful Cleveland,
who art in Washington when not fishing,
thou who are the father of Ruth and Ruth's
sister, and of Maria Halpin's boy,-vOscar,
ani the godfather of the democratic party,
(its father wouldn't own it if it were here.)
We hail thy name as the great political
prophet of the century. We bow down be
fore thee in humble political obedience.
When thou say est go, we go; when thou
sayest come, we come. We hare no desire
but to serve thee. If thou sayest black is
white, we will swear to it and lick the ever-
lastiu' stuffin' out of the man that disputes
it. When thou takest snuff we will sneeze;
when thou sayest free silVer, we will echo
thy words; when thou sayest gold, then
gold it is. We are all democrats after the
improved modern type. Our business is to
vote the ticket and vote 'er straight. What
is it to us whether we have free silver or
not? We are but dogs that eat the crumbs
that fall from our master's table. When
the crumbs fall we wag our tails; when they
don't fall we stand aud wait until they do.
This is democracy. This is the kind of de
mocracy that elected thee, our great and
alinighty Cleveland. Oh, most adored mas
ter, we love thee for what thou hast not
done for us. We love thee because thou
art Cleveland. We humbly surrender our
selves to thee. Do with us as thou wilt.
Though wheat is but 40c. a bushel, we love
thee; though cotton is low, we love thee;
though business is dull, we love thee;
thousands, millions, are out of employment,
still we love thee; though, our children are
clothed in rags, we love thee; though our
wife, the dear companion of our bosom, is
scautily dressed and looks so shabby she
cannot go to church, we love thee; though
we are sinking deeper into debt and poverty
is knocking at the door and hunger is star
ing us in the face, we love the still. This
shows our great faith and love for thee.
Our wives and children are willing to sacri
fice, even as the Hindoo mother sacrifices
her offspring by throwing it under the crush
ing wheels of the Juggernaut. Oh, mighty
Cleveland, Words cannot express our love
for thee. " We loy our party too. What
We' know it promised, free silver, nd '-we'
know it won't give it to us, bat we lied
when we said it. We thought that we had
some manhood about us but we aint. We
have no independence. Thou, oh, mighty
Cleveland, hast all the manhood and inde
pendence in the party. . We are fools, liars,
lickspittles, mudsills. We have no business
to want anything or to say anything. Last
year we favored free silver, and now , we
are to oppose it. We favored it then because
we thought it was right. We oppose it
now, most adored mooter, because thou
tellest us to. Aint we a honey of the first
water? Did ever dog serve his master more
faithfully? Did ever dog get less for it?
Oh, mighty master, we are ever ready to
serve thee and party. AH the pay we ask
is to be patted on the back by some local
politician and called a good democrat. We
aint got any sense. We don't want any;
ouly enough to vote the ticket. It don't
take any sense to be a good democrat.
What a joyful thought! We don't have to
worry. Our work is all mapped out for us
All that is expected is to do what we are
told to do. We thank thee, oh, Cleveland,
that we are democrats. We thank t hee for
the panic. We thank the for the idle men
and women in the land. We thank thee for
low prices. We thank thee for the banks
that have busted and the thousands of busi
ness failures since thou hast come into
power. We thank thee for the hard times
for the clothes our wife needs and caa't
get. We thank thee for what thou hast
done to the banker and what thou hast not
done for the people. We thank thee for aU
of these things because it is our duty as a
good democrat to'do bo. It may be against
the grain, but we will take our medicine.
We will work our wives to death, starve
our children, sacrifice our homes, crucify
liberty and kill property, but will never go
back on our dear old party, and on thee,
our most adored Cleveland. Thou art more
account than- all of us put together. Thou
knowest more than the South and the West.
Call us fools, spit in our faces, wipe your
feet on us, we will love thee all the more.
And now, our great political father, we
leave us in thy care. Do with us as tbou
wilt. Pitch silver into the middle of next
century; give more privileges to the national
banks; issue more bonds; preserve the Mc
Kinley bill; establish state banks; foster
trusts; bribe congressmen with patronage;
fish when thou carest ' to, and we will en
dorse everything thou doest, carry Cleve
land roosters, campaign torches, and for
ever sing thy praise. Amen.

on Wednesday evening the recip
ients of a genuine surprise party.
Instances where such parties were
a success in every detail are in
deed rare, but this one proved an
exception. Some twenty-five of
Mr. and Mrs. Spencer's, friends
concluded that it would be fitting
to in some aonroDriate manner
commemorate the 39th birthday
ol Mrs. bpencer, which would oc
cur on the 16th inst., but as that
was the date of the Julius Caesar
performance and Thursday even
ing was Jesse's lodge night it was
decided that Wednesday evening
would be the most convenient.
Those invited, met at the residence
of A. R. Pygall, from whence they
proceeded to the Spencer man
sion and after making a hasty
reconnoisance the. citadel was can-
tured. Finding the inmates were
absent a courier was dispatched
to lammany Hall for Jesse and
another on to the neighbors in
search of his wife; they soon ar
rived and from then on till mid
night a most enjoyable time was
had. No detail of the affair had
been forgotten and before the
guests departed for their homes a
sumptuous lunch was served.
Those present were:
Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Soencer. Mr.
and Mrs. W. S. Hufford, Mr. and
Mrs. J. M. Porter. Mr. and Mrs.
Thomas Whitehorn, Mr. and Mrs.

Preliminary lines hare beer run

has been abandoned for the winter i
but Mr. Nicholson is of the onin-
ion that it will be resumed early
in the spring and the road com
pleted to Roseburg, a distance of
: miles, before tha rainy season
sets in next fall. The line t,aps
several fertile valleys and runs
through a rich agricultural section.
The road's completion will prove
boon to people living along the
line as it will open up a new line
of transportation with San Fran
cisco and in a measure relieve the
residents of Douglas courty from
the clutches of the Southern Pa
cific, who, at present, have an ab
solute monopoly on them.
A TRIPLE SURPRISE.
One Evening this week at a
meeting of the ladies' society at
the Congregational church Mrs.
Thomas Graham suggested the
idea of eivine a receDtion in t,ha
church to Mrs. Norris Humphrey,
ot Eugene, who is visiting in the
city. She was formerly an active
worker in their church. The tlan
met with hearty approval and it
was decided to make arrangements -
at their next meeting. At this
next meeting, however, Mrs. Gra
ham was absent and tha ladies
thought it a het.fpr nl
0 w X" w ta w
out that their original idea had
been dropped; secretly they set
about arranging that the reception
should be given at Mrs. Graham's
without the iatter's , knowledge.
While Mrs. Humphrey was at
Dr. Robert Wilson's for tea her
many friends were assembling at
Rev. Kantner's and at eight
o'clock marched in on Mrs; Gra
ham, to her complete surprise. At
Dr. Wilson's it was suggested that
their party should call on Mrs
Graham and the second surprise
was perfect. Later Tom Graham,
returning from his ' lodge, found
u: l j : e n
emy and he surrendered at once.
About thirty guests were present
and'' a very pleasant evening
passed. . ,
