' STOP ILLEGAL VOTING. Lee Nealley, the last of the five arrest- ?CV ivi UUU ttL LUC lt;i.lUb WIT I lection, was bound over Thursday to wit the action of the grand jury. It is J f the utmost importance to the people &i & . i r : 1 . V T.. I punished. The fact that this thing has been allowed to go on for years without ven an attempt being made to punish the offenders, is no excuse for the present culprits, whose friends are trying to work up public sympathy in their behalf in order that the grand jury might be pre vailed upon not to indict them. Some otherwise good and responsible citizens, who have personal interests in this mat ter, are saying that these cases should not be prosecuted on account of the expense to the county ; that this is a matter that concerns only the people of Corvallis, and that the taxpayers outside of the city should not be compelled to ssist in paying the costs of the trials. But the people of the county ontside the town are as much interested, if not more than the people of Corvallis, in the sup pression of illeeal voting. . It is a noto rious fact that a great many illegal votes are cast in this city at every election ; and that very little illegal voting is done elsewhere in the county. The fanners might well feel agrieved that their votes are offset by a lot of hired scalawags who do not belong to the county and have no interest in its affairs; . " As one citizen remarked the other day, "The right of suffrage is about the only right I have as an American citizen, and I don't care to have it annulled by imported hirelings." This illegal voting should be stopped, and the time to stop it is now. Men can afford to work for the county at smaller salaries if their campaign expenses do not cut such a heavy figure, and there will be smaller reason to spend money if bribery and illegal voting are summari ly dealt with. It is a shame to hear respon sible citizens make such remarks as "The grand .jury won't indict," "It don't amount to anything, anyway," "They have all done it," "It will cost the county a deal of money," "Iret them all go. Yet such remraks have been heard quite frequently on the streets, but generally emanate from friends of the accused. ...The great majority of people believe that the men should be brought to trial, and If proven guilty, be dealt with according to law. . Should the grand jury fail to act noon these cases the next election will be a farce. There will be a total disregard of the election laws, and the election will go to the shrewdest manip ' ulator of illegal votes. All this will cost money and the people will eventually pay the bill. THB fourth ot July will be generally observed in Oregon this year. The peo ple will come together in nearly all the important towns in the state to celebrate. There is a committee of seven, appointed by the eovernor. at work, in the state devising ways for raising funds for patriotic purpose, namely, the present ing of a suitable testimonial to the U. S. battle ship, "Oregon." The various ora tors who will address the crowds upon the fourth should comment upon this matter and acquaint the people with the motives that are prompting this effort It is the intention of the committee to . raise the necessary funds by popular sub scription, and the fourth of July would be the most appropriate time for the beginning. The people should be given , an opportunity on that day to contribute to the fund, and committees should be appointed to take up the collections to be sent to Hon. Henry Failing, Portland, treasurer of the committee. Such a col lection for a purely patriotic purpose surely would not be out of harmony with the spirit of the day. . WE find the following gem going the rounds of the press without credit: "Re member this, young man, be careful what you say about a woman's character. Think how many years she has been building it, of the toils and privations endured, of wounds received, and let no suspicion follow her actions. The purity of the women is the salvation of the race, the hope of future greatness and the redemption of man. Wipe out her purity and man sinks beneath the wave " of despair, without a star to guide his life into the channel of safety. Think, then, before you speak, and remember that any hog can root up the fairest flower that ever grew ; so the vilest man can ruin the purest woman's character." The Oregonian and its cuckoos, the Pendleton Tribune and others, are emp tying their vials of wrath upon the devo ted head of Secretary of State Kincaid. They want him to donate part of his earnings, as secretary, to to the state. It is not because they like the dear people the more but because they love Kincaid the less. They are not prompted by a spirit of public economy, but are trying to obtain a little revenge for Kincaid's refusal to stand in with the Dolph com bination during the last session of the legislature. Mr. Kincaid is an able and conscientious officer. People recognize the motives that prompt these spiteful attacks upon him and resent them accordingly. fourth of JuW suits at Nolan & Callo- THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER, . v TE OregoaCity .Enterprise imputi the -failure of ' the'' Const Carriage and Wagon Company to its. location at Cor vallis, and adds that had it been located at Oregon City it would have proved a financial success on account of transpor tation facilities principally, and also because of cheap power. But that paper is very wide of the mark in its statement that the company had ample capital. It was lack of capital solely that caused its present failure. -Transportation facilities are better at Corvallis than at anv other town in Ore- gon. Xhe principal field for the sale of , the products of the factory is California, and freight rates via Yaquina are very much lower than by the Southern Pacific or down the Columbia. The managers have no fault to find with the location. They certainly know whereof they speak when they say it was a failure of expect- ed capital to materialize that caused the embarrassment that is expected to be but temporary. Oregon City is "a very good manufacturing point for some purposes, but cheap power would not take the place of capital even at that point, and in the matter of transportation, the chief item to be considered, Corvallis has the advan tage of the falls town. Convenient sites ,. . , . .....has the advantage as to color from any a very high price. The difference in this 6 item alone would more than pay the dif- . ., . ference in the cost of power at the two places. The Oregon City paper betrays a repre hensible selfishnsss in its covert insinua tion that its town is the only place in the state where manufacturing enterprises can thrive. Such statements not only injure the various towns of Oregon but the whole state, including Oregon City. The statement of the carriage factory receiver demonstrates that the business fhas been a paying one, and had not the owners put all their money into the pur chase and improvement of the plant, leaving them no working fund, they would not have been compelled to under go this temporary shut-down. THE CRIME OF 1893. Corvauk, June 17, 1895. ' Ed. Gazettb: The. act of congress demonetizing silver is known as "The Crime of 1873." That it was a leading factor in bringing on the hard times is believed by a majority of the people' of all parties. That its direful effects on the business and prosperity of the coun try was not sooner felt is owing to the fact of the act of congress of 1878 requir ing the secretary of the treasury to pur chase and coin at least two millions of dollars in silver each month and making it a full legal tender, which act was in full force until 1890, when it was repealed by what is known as the Sherman law, which provided for purchasing and hoarding four millions a month, upon which silver certificates were issued, and which led to the crime of 1895. Under the act of 1878 two hundred and eighty-eight millions of legal tender silver dollars were coined and added to the circulation. Under the act of 1890 one hundred and forty-four millions were hoarded and silver certificates issued thereon, which, under the rules of both republican and democratic administra tions, were redeemable in gold. This enabled the rich men who control large amounts of money, to combine and make a run on the reserve fund of gold in the U. S. treasury until Mr. Cleveland and his secretary of the treasury deemed it necessary to sell government bonds .to replenish this fund. Instead of appeal ing to the people as did France when she had to raise the money to pay Germany the indemnity war demand, Mr. Cleve land and Mr. Carlile go into a combina tion with Belmont and Morgan and make a contract to sell them government bonds by which those money sharks are enabled to make the neat little sum of nine millions of dollars by .a turn of the wrist. This is the crime of 1895, upon which the people will pass judgment in due time. - It is claimed by the friends of the administration that Belmont and Morgan were the agents of Rothschilds and it was necessary to give them this little bonus of nine millions to stop their raids on the treasury. If this be true, then our entire financial system should be reconstructed, so that this country will not be at the mercy of the London Jews and their satellites in America. Mr. Carlile is a marvelously proper man to advocate a single gold standard and scout the idea of a bi-metallic currency as he did in his Louisville speech. The issues of "96 are being formed now. Both par ties have strenuously declared in favor of a bl-metallic currency, and the only question was how was the best way to se cure it; but we are told now by Cleve land, Carlisle & Co. that we must follow the English idea and have a single gold standard. Politics make strange bed fellows, but the strangest of all is to see Grover Cleveland in the arms of the Or egonian. ''.

Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mu cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless tho inflammation can be takeu out and this tube" restored to its normal condi tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Gazette: -S . Previous to seeding for the. future wheat erop, it would be as well to call the atten tion of the valley farmers to the importance of sowing a stronger variety of wheat than is generally cultivated. Uu fortunately the exporter has discriminated against tlie rud wlie.it, which is not justifible, considering its value for milling purposes. Hue is evi dent as Eastern buyer are now in the mar ket for that variety. ' : A change of seed is necessary, as a great deal of the wheat grown in this vicinity is absolutely worthless. Owing to constant cropping, it ha become fibrous and lack the essential constituent to make a first-class article of floor. Tb's deterioration has been gradual for a number of years and has made a marked difference in the price of valley wheat. Aud now, as the demand is for a stronger flour. Eastern Oregon whtat is tak ing the lead. It has been the aim of the Washington farmers to improve their wheat by introducing new varieties, such a the Bine Stem, Scotch Fife. This, with the excellent weather during the maturing of the grain, has increaned it valne. And it is not owingto the milling, hut tothe fact of an improvement as to color which was nat to be obtained by milling the club wheat which had by constant cropping become yel- 1 1 : . ? The valley farmer . , , is lackm? aud can only be obtained by in- traducing new seed from a different climate. No system cf milling ean overcome this de- feet iu the wheat berry. Jt rests entirely with the farmer to obtain the qualities desired. The milling interests are depen dent upon these particular facts, especially for a strong baker flour, and the farmer can easily obtain seed that will increase the value of his grain as the increased demand for flour will secure an extended market for a good article of milling wheat.
