From Nebraska to Oregon by Team.
In these days of railroads when but four
days are required in making the tiip from
Omaha to Portland, it is not often that in
tending settlers make the long tedious
journey by team. Yet such a mode of
transportation was employed by O. II.
Harding who arrived here on the 12th inst.,
from southwestern Nebraska. Four mouths
lacking four days would seem a toug trip to

Jharlee, and his mother, now 72 yeurs of

A Tale. Its Consequence and Moral

altercations ensued. By the time they ar

annoyance of Mr. Franklin's household.
At this point the teams were stopped while
an attempt was m-ide to settle the dispute.
The continued use of abusive aud indecent
language hr tight Mr. Frauklin to the scene
with a polite, but earnest, request that the
icrowd move on or else stop their quarreling.
This riled White who see-ned of the opin

rest of White who asked that his trial be
set for Monday billowing, at which time he
plead guilty to. the charge of assault and

Dr. Dumont Lotz, in a recent letter to
Arlhur St. Clair says he will visit "Maple 1
Brook Ranch'' about the first of August for
a two-weeks deer hunt in the Coast range. '
It is understood that Mr. Lotz has ac- j
cepted a position as chemist with a large
wholesale drug firm in Portland, and will
begin his duties there about tbe first of
September. This will be pleasing news to
tbe many warm friends made by the ex.-
station chemist during his eighteen months ;
residence in Corvallis among whom bis
siugular resignation on accounf of "ill
health'' was so unanimously regretted.

Mr. Thomas Batte, editor -of tbe Graphic, j
Texarkana. Arkansas, has found what he
believes to be the best remedy in. existence j
for the flux. His experience is- well worth
remember in g..:. He ssys: "Last summer I
had a very severe-attack of flux. I tried
almost every known remedy, none giving
relief. Chamberlain's Coiicr Cholera and
Diarrhoea Romedy was recommended to me.
purchased a bottle and received almost
immediate relief. I continued to use the
medicine and was entirely cured. I take
pleasure in i recommending this remedy to
any parson suffering with such a disease, as
in my opinion it is the best - medicine in
existence." ' 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale

CHINAMEN OUTCLASSED.
A Steam Laundry the Newest
Project in Corvallis.
The newest thing, iu Corvallis business
jircles is a movement toward the establish,
tnent of a steam laundry. A. J. Achison,
1 laundrymau of ten years' experience, was
1 here this week consulting with our business
men regarding the scheme,, which, he sas,
met with general approval. Mr. Achison
has built and operated laundries in Danville
and Rockford, Illinois, and is now manag
ing the one at Independence. There ill
be no contributions- asked', but every house
will be canvassed in order to determine the
probable amount of work that could be got
ten in the event the plan succeeds. Mr.
Achmou. believes that a, plaqj costing from
$1500 tn $2000 will be necessary to care for
the business iu a place of this size. Such a
concern as he has in mind will furnish em
ployment to ten or fifteeu hands,. a majority
of whom will be women.
In order to get the laundry started it will
be necessary tn secure a guarantee for work
after the business is once established.
Every person in totvn will be asked to
promise a certain amount of patronage,
whatever thy cau aff rd from one dollar
: uPWirl8. aDl when the laundry is once
completed and in operation, to pay to the
company in cash, the amount subscribed or
' guaranteed. This is only considered an ad
i vance payment for the work the company
4 are pkdg1 to furnish iu return. Au ac-
fc ...ill 1 J 1
1 count will be opened with each person upon
the payment of his or her subscription.
That is, they will be credited with the
amount paid and as the lan nil ry woik is
furnished iu return, its cost w.U be charged
against their account. The prices will be
about the same as are quf paid to the
Chinamen fur plain work, while starched
clothes will be a trifle higher.
The cost of the plant will be determined
by the liberality of the subscriptions. For
instance: If f5Q0 is guaranteed a plaut
.,, , , ... . . ., .
mX cosmic iuw win De ouilt; Uut II JflUUU is
subscribed $2000 will be invested iu the
enterprise. The lattei amount will be suf
ficjeiif with which to complete such a
plaut as will be required here, and would
have a capacity of turning out $300 or $400
worth of work per week. Should the en
terprise receive the proper encouragement
work on the building will begin immedi
ately. This will be 30x40 on the ground,
and two stories high. Only the most ex
pensive and latest improved machinery will
be purchased, and when the plaut is once in
operation it will bs complete in all its de
details. Already something like $400 had
been guaranteed and when the public un
derstand the matter thoroughly there is lit
tle doubt that the other $00 will be
promptly subscribed. Mr. Dow, a brother-in-law
to Mr. Achiso'i, will be interested in
the enterprise, although it will be under the
personal rnpgryjsion of the latter. From
the fact that there are so many advantages
. to be derived from the establishment of
such an enterprise it is hardly probable that
it will be allowed to go by the hoard for the
' want of encouragement on' the part of our
citizens. When once in operation its pay
roll should aggregate not less than $500 per
month. This money will pass iuto the or
dinary channels of business and do the
community some benefit, while under the
present lauudry system only a very small
1 portion of the cash paid each month for
washing is disbursed within the county,
j Mr. T. M. Hamilton of this city is per
sonally acquainted with Mr. Achisou and is
familiar with his . work and says that he is
. perfectly competent and thoroughly reliable
j and any pledges ha in ly make will be car
! ried out to the letter. Let us have the
steam laundry. Mr. Achison will call on
you next Monday aud expluiu the matter
thoroughly.

Nearing the Grave.
In oldage infirmities mi weakness hasten1
to close the gap between us and the grave.
Happily scientific research and pharmacal'
skill have allied themselves in furnishing us;
a reliable means of ameliorating the ailments:
incident to declining years, and of renewing;:
waning physical energy. Its name is Bos
tetter's Stomach Bitters, a widely compre
hensive remedy in disease, and an inestim
able blessing to thu elderly, the feeble and'
the convalescent. Rheumatic ailments.-
trouble with the kidneys and lumbago are'
among the more common ailments of the'
aged. These are effectually counteracted by'
the Bitters, which is likewise a prevention
and curative of malarial complaints, dys
pepsia, constipation and billiousness. It is
highly promotive of appetite, sleep and the'
acquisition of vigor.
VV. O. Nisley, the piano tuner, was here
during the forepart of the week. Since his
last visit to Corvallis Mr. Nisley has se
cured a patent on a practice piano which he
has been working on forseveral years. It
has an ordinary sized keyboard with a per-.
feet piano action and js designed especially
for the use of teachers on the pianoforte.
The instrument is cheap about $40, and
better than all it is entirely noiseless when
iu use. Think of what a boon it will be to
suffering humanity when its use becomes
universal.
Catarrh Cannot be Cured
with local applications, as they cannot reach
the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a blood
or constitutional disease, and in order to cure
it you must take internal remedies. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and acts
directly on the blood and mucous surfaces.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine.
It was prescribed by one of the best physi
cians in "this country for years, and is a regu
lar prescription. It is composed of the best
tonics known, combined with the best blood
purifiers, acting on the mucous surfaces.
The perfect combination of the two ingredi
ents is what produces such wonderful results
in curing Catarrh. Send for testimonials
