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.

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. ''. Junius. -
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. 1 here is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. 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.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any caso of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

CHANGE
IN SEED
WHBAtf '
Ed. 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-

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.

beca over on such an eceasioa knowb what
that means a good time for all who attend,
And w are going to have a picnio worth
coming to on the fourth. Are you coming ?
We shall expect to see you here.
Those who came from the ontside, and
were disappointed oa account of the bad
weather which prevented the exercises of
the picnic were partly compensated for
their trip by . attending the dance at the
residence of A. L. Clark, Saturday evening,
It was an impromptu affair, gotten op on

grand success. '

The chiet function of the kidneys -.is to,
separate from" the- blood, in its passage
through them, of certain impurities and
watery particles which make . their final
exit through the bladder. The retention of
these, in consequence of inactivity of the
kidneys, is productive of Brighl's disease,
dropsy, diabetes, albuminuria and other mal
adies with a fatal tendencies. Hostctter's
Stomach Bitters, a highly sanctioned diuret
ic and blood depun-nt, impels the kidneys
when inactive to nuitsw their sifting function,
and strain from th vital current impurities
which infest it and threaten their own exist
ence as organs of tho body. Catarrh of the
bladder, gravel and retention of the urino
are also maladies arrested or averted by this

Bitters, which is also speedily beneficial to
