Thursday's Oregonian contaius a long ar ticle in which it declares that it is probable W. W. Saunders, who murdered Charles Campbell in Albany about nine years ago, is to be pardoned by Gov.

Eglin effected a sale of the Wm. Druschel farm of 254 acres located three miles south of Philomath, to Hans J. Swonsen. a recent arrival from North Dakota. The price paid was 3,650 of which amount $2,700 was cash. This is the largest real estate deal that has been consnmated in Benton county for sev eral months, and all concerned feel elated over the result. Frank Moore, who has been conducting a sawmill on Greasy for several years, died at the home of his brother-in-law, George Ma son, last Saturday. The deceased was in his 55th year, and a veteran of the civil war. He had been afflicted with chronic liver and kidney trouble for years, which caused his death. The remains were laid to rest in the Pleasant Valley cemetery near the residence of AndrMr Gellatly. It is reported that Herron brothers have received an offer of ten cents per pound for a car load ot Italian prunes, green. The fruit was for eastern shipment and the offer was made by the Portland Fruit Union. As the crop had already been contracted to H. M. Stone the Portland proposal was not accepted. This is the first season the or chard has borne, and the crop will net the boys $80 per acre. "I consider Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy a specific for croup. It is very pleasant to take, which is one of the most important requisites where a cough remedy is inte nded for use among children. I have known of cases of croup where I know the life of a lil tlo one was saved by the use of Chamber lain's Cough Remedy." J. J. LaGrange, druggist, Avoca, Neb. Fifty cent bottles for sale by Graham & Wells. M. P. Taylor returned from Eastern Ore gon Sunday evening bringing with him the remains of his son, wha died at the home of Med Moore near Prineville several years ago, while Mr. Taylor and family were cross ing the plains to Oregon from Iowa, by means of a prairie schooner. Ou Monday, Mr. Taylor and family and a few friends followed the body to the Peoria cemetery, where the remains were interred. The county court made a wise move, and one that will meet with the approbation of the taxpayers, when they refused to accept the bid of the Pauly Jail Company for re constructing the old jail, provision for which work was made in their bid of 3,750. They however, received the contract for furnish ing the cells for $1,940. The other $810 in cluded the cost of doing the work, which W. O. Heckart contracts to do for $245, thus saving the county $565. Under the improssion that a marriage li cense would be granted in any county in the state to residents of Benton county, provid ing the contracting parties were of legal age, W. A. Malone, of A.Isea valley, made a trip to Albany one day this week with the inten tion of securing a permit to wed Miss Mag gie Wilson. On making his wants known to Clerk Nedham, that official acquainted the young man of his mistake, whereupon he retraced his steps to Corvallis, where the necessary document was secured without further trouble. Perhaps some of our readers would like to know in what respect Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is better than any other. We will tell you. When this remedy is taken as soon as cold has been contracted, and before it has become settled in the system, it will counteract the effect of the cold and greatly lessen its severity, and is the only remedy that will do this. It acts in perfect harmony with nature and aids nature in relieving the lungs, opening the secretions, liquefying the mucous and causing its expulsion from the air cells of the lungs and restoring the sys tem to a strong and healthy condition. No other remedy in the market possesses these properties. No other will cure a cold so quickly. For sale by Graham & Wells.

J. R. Markley returned from Prineville Sunday evening by private conveyance. He states that the people of Crook county are very anxious for an early extension of the Oregon Pacific, and if it could be made now, residents of that section would give the com pany a good deal of assistance. There was a time when extensive stock raisers of that locality were opposed to any enterprise that would develop the country, and increase the population, but that time has passed and they are now unanimous iu wishing tor some plan thit will afford a favorable and less expensive outlet for their commerce, than via Tho Dalles. Word of the sndden death of Father Smith reached town Wednesday afternoon. He was in his 83rd year, and for some time had resided on the island above town with the family of his son, Mier Smith. Tues day night he had complained of a severe pain in the breast, but in other respects was hale and hearty as usual. Wednesday af ternoon he was missed from the house by Mrs Smith, and a neighnor who was pass ing was asked to look for him. Ou going to the barn, he found the old gentleman lyiug on the hay, cold and stiff in death. The funeral occurred yesterday afternoon from the fernily residence. Senator Joseph N. Dolph and a party of friends were bayward bound passengers on yesterday's O. P. train. The senator is ou a tour of inspection to the various points in the state where improvmeuts are going on under federal appropriations. The funds secured for Yaquina were largely the re sult of his persistent efforts, and he natur ally takes considerable pride in looking over the work as it nears completion. Besides Judge O. N. Denny, Senator Dawson, of Linn, and Representatives Cooper and Daly, of Benton and Lincoln counties, the party includes several prominent citizens form va rious parts of the state. They will return tomorrow. Governor Pennoyer has issued instructions to the several district attorneys of Oregon, to file a bill in equity against every banking house in their district, which compels each bank to answer, under oath, certain inter rogatives prepared and furnished by the state's attorney general. The proceeding is for the purpose of ascertaining whether or not the banks hold in their possession any funds of deceased persons who have died without heirs. If any such moneys are found they are to be transferred into the es cheat fund of the state treasury, where same belongs. : The int&rcsfc on this money goes into the state school fund. There is thought to be a large amount of such funds deposi ted in the banks throughout the state. A. F. Alexauder, recently from Seattle, has moved to Corvallis with his faraiiy and is comfortably settled in the Wm. Crees property in Chase's addition. Mr. Alex ander is a wideawake business man and has come to stay. About the 1st of October, he will open a New York Racket Store in the Ray corner and intends keeping a large and well selected stock. The goods have already been shipped from the well known house of Charles Broadway Uouss of New York and are daily expected to arrive. During the past four and one-half years Mr. Alexander has been receiver of the Huron Lumber Company of Seattle, whose busi ness affairs have just been settled up. Prior to coming to the coyst, he was iu the mercantile business at Fremont, Nebraska. President J. M. Bloss returned last week from an extended trip to Eastern Oregon in the interest of the Agricultural College. He says the attendence for the coming Schol astic year will be greatly increased by pu pils from that section of the state. Lectures on the college and station work were deliv ered by him at Pendleton, Weston, Union, Ln Grande and Baker City. At the last named place he was tendered an informal reception by former O. A. C. students. In all, twenty persons were present that at some time had attended the college, and five of the number were graduates. The party included Lulu, Charles ami Marvin Chandler, Lois Stewart, G. W. Palmer and Mrs. C. II. Whitney. This meeting of old friends and pupils was indeed an agreeable' surprise to the president, and he thoroughly appreciates their treatment and kind offices toward the institution of which they cherish many pleasant recollections. John McGee, of Wrens, was in town this week aud teemed considerably puzzled over the action of a Philomath justice of the peace, who caused the arrest of John McGee Jr., on a charge of contempt of court. Prior to the arrest no papers had been servWl on the young man, and naturally enough, he feels that the law is dealing unfairly with him. From Mr. McGee it is learned that tho trouble grew out of an attachment suit recently brought by John W. Ingle against Mrs. W. B. Kitchen, of Blodgett valley. The attachment was levied upon the defend ant's wheat, against which McGee & Co. had an account for threshing. This bill Mr. Ingle agreed to settle, but as he failed to do so, the company retained in their possession sufficient of the attached grain to cover the account for threshing. Believing that young McGee held possession of the wheat, the court issued a warrant for his arrest. He was brought before Justice Bowles last Mon day and released on $100 bonds to appear for trial Wednesday. How the case termi nated, we have been unable to learn. Letter List. Following is the list of letters remaining in the Corvallis postoffiee, unclaimed Sept. 21, 1894. When calling for same, please say "advertised." Miss Bertha Forstner Jesse' Holder C. M. Lane G. S. Miss Amallia Clark Georgia Johnson . O. C. Ramsdell Miss Octavia Tutt C. . Moor, P. M. A. L. Weaver (2) Or. Price's Cream Baking Powder World's Fair Highest Award. For a third time, J. M. Nolan was the successful bidder for furnishing the O. A. C. students with uniforms. Bids and sam ples of cloth from varions firms and mills were examined by the executive committee of the board of regents last Saturday at Albany, and as a result of their delibera tion, Mr. Nolan was awarded the con tract for the ensuing year. This shows push and enterprise on the part of the suc cessful bidder, and indicates that be is fully up to date in his line of trade. The cloth used in the manufacture of these uniforms is to be furnished by the Thomas Kay woolen mills of Salem. The body of Arthur Langell, who was recently murdered in Klamath county, was buried in the cemetery near his home, but will be remoyed to Corvallis shortly for in terment beside his wife. . Mr. Langell was one of Oregon's pioneers and was known and highly respected throughout the Btate. He settled in Klamath county in 1849. At the time of his death he was the owner of 3,000 acres of land and considerable prop erty in Seattle, all valued at 00,000. In 1SS2 he was married to Margaret Knotts, of this county. Six years later a son was born to them, at which time the mother died. Recently the boy's father made a will, in which Wm. Knotts was named as executor aud the boy. as sole legatee. Mr. Knotts left for Klamath Monday to assume the duties of executor of the estate. George Waggoner, who returned from tho Belfontaine neighborhoodjlast Saturday, tells of an interesting bear hunt that was attended with rather serious resuks. The hunters wesr Arthur Hawley and Mr. Thompson, foreman of the Excelsior prune farm, who were accompanied by several dogs. These were started on the trail, and after a long chase, they succeeded in sur rounding Mr. Bruin. As the dogs kept in range, it was a difficult matter to get a good shot at him for fear of injuring one of the dogs, but after each of the hunters had made five or six shots they were rewarded for their pains by seeing the bear drop to the ground, a corpse. On arriving at the scene, however, it was discovered that during the fusilade, one of the best dags had also been killed, notwithstanding the sportsmen's efforts to avoid such a result. Assessor Alexander, has completed the roll for this year, and it goes into the hands of the board of equalization next Monday. This board is composed of Clerk Hunter, County Judge Hufford aud Assessor Alex auder. Its object is to adjust grievances as to assessments, and anyone who thinks he has been assessed too hih can coma before the board and have the matter looked into. Mr. Alexander is anxious that everyone who can, should come in and satisfy themseves that no errors have been made. Notice of this meeting has been given in the local pa pers for several weeks. The county court is not disposed to make any change in as sessments after the meeting of this board. It was formerly customary in this county for people to disregard the meetings of the board, and -when they jame to pay theh taxes and found some supposed mistake they would get the -court to change it. The court is no longer disposed to grant any such concessions and persons who fail to ap pear next week and have their grievances adjusted, must forever hold their peace. BIODGETT VAUET. Joe Brown bought quite a number of sheep in this valley last week. Hurrah for Maine and a republican house and senate next congress, when vetoes will be in order. The Gellatly Bros, finished a 29 days run with their steam thresher on the 9th. The average per day will reach about 2,000 bushels. The readers of the Gazette will do well to be on the lookout for a new serial story entitled, "Jump of Joe," by the former cor respondent from Mountain Top. Walt Brown has so far conceded to the burnt woods custom as to wear one gum and one leather boot. He denominates one "free trade" and the other "cheap labor." It. B. Blodgett sold his match gray team last week to a Mr. Learmont. Suffice to say that the price brought did not equal the price of one of them under republican rule. Threshing is over in this valley, and the grain stved in good condition. The yield came up to expectations generally, but the prices are so low that farmers are both mad and discouraged. A party who ran with the Gellatly Bros.' mengearie says, that as chief of a ghost dance and dervish company, Leo Wells is a success. That Fraukie Williams striving for a happy medium, downed an old man and a kid. lhat Johnny Gellatly was heard to sing, relative to the big sorrel mares, "Though lost to sight, to memory denr." Homo. The Land of Promise Is the mighty West, the land that "tickled with a hoe laughs a harvest;" the El Dora do of the miner; the goal of the agricul tural emigrant. While it teems with all the elements of wealth and prosperity, some of the fairest and most fruitful portions of it bear a harvest of malaria reaped in its fullness by those unprotected by a medicinal safeguard. No one seeking or dwelling in a malarial locality is safe from the scourge without Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Emi grants bear this in mind. Commercial travelers sojourning in malarious regions should carry a bottle of the Bitters in the traditional gripsack. Against the effects of exposure, mental or bodily overwork, damp and unwholesome food or water, it is an infallible defense. Constipation, rheuma tism, biliousness, dyspepsia, nervousness and loss of strength are all remedied by this genial restorative. .Notice to Taxpayers; Notice is hereby given to the taxpayers of Benton county, Oregon, that on September 24, 1894, the board of equalization will at tend at the office of the county clerk of Benton county, - Oregon, and publicly ex amine the assessment rolls, and correct all errors in valuation, description or qualities of land, lots or other property. Said board will continue in session for one week, and if no errors are found, all assessments will remain as entered upon the roll and no corrections or alterations will be made by county court thereafter. A. B. Alexander, ' Assessor for Benton County, Oregon. Dated September 3, 1894. THE CARRIAGE FACTORY. A Gazette representative called at the Corvallis Carriage works Wednesday and found Manager Gleim in the midst of preparations for a few days absence at the state fair. On being asked if there was anything new in regard to the pending sale of the factory, Mr. Gleim said: "You may say to your readers that Mr. Brace left San Francisco Sunday night for St. Louis, where he expects to meet Mr. Lyford. . Everything has been arranged satisfactorily for a transfer of the property. The factory is shut down this week for the purpose of lining up the shafting and a general overhauling of the machinery, preparatory to beginning a steady run. "A large list of material, needed in the various departments, is being made for large orders to be placed in the east. This material will be coming along very soon now. We expect to work the stuff up this fall and winter into finished jobs. In dications for trade are good. Understand this is not the season of the year for an in creased trade in Oregon, but our California business i3 now opening up and bids fair to be quite a large trade. We are already re ceiving many inquiries from that section for catalogues and prices. What has been said about the future of the plant has brought numerous enquiries for positions, so that we fear no difficulty in securing help as the business is increased. "Mr. Uhlman and myself are goiug to Salem today to look after our exhibit at the state fair, where we have 19 vehicles car riages and buggies on exhibition. Our head painter, Mr. Sicafoose, is over" there now and is going to give an exhibition of scientific striping." .. MARRIED.
