Booming of cannon and promiseuoas dis-
chargs of fireworks ushered in the glorious
Fearthas ninal. " Ths morning was dark
and heavy clouds overcast the sky, indica
ting that the day would be a rainy one, but
this did not ssam to. deter the patriotic of
Corvallis and vicinity from carrying ; out
their plans to celebrate with us. Nor did
the unpropitiousness of ths weather dampen
the ardor of those who came, for a more en
thusiastic obssrvancs of the nation's birth
day could hardly havs bseit expected nnder
the most favorable circumstances. - The
committee of arrangements had worked
hard and enthusiastically for the success of
the day's exercises and the efforts of its
members wsre thoroughly . appreciated.
They have the ' satisfaction of knowing that
every event arranged for was earned oat as
advertissd, and those who celebrated here
will long remember the Fourth of 1895, aa
being one of the most pleasant days ever
spent ia Corvallis. Of course the weathsr
was not such as would tend to promote the
enjoyment of all, yet the ahowsrs were not
heavy, and during the afternoon the sun
came out and scattered ths clouds for several
hours, affording an opportunity for the im
mense crowds to witness the events of ths
afternoon without being ia danger of drown
ing from the drippings of somsone's umbrella.
The parade was to have formed at 9:30,
but a gentle shower at that time caused it
to be postponed until promptly at 10 o'clock
when it moved south on 4th street, ia the
following order: Grand marshal and aides,
Marina Bsad, national colors, carriages con
taining officers of the day, float containing
Goddess of Liberty, Hook & Ladder Co..
libsrty oar, : Yonng America Engine Co.,
float representing the navy, Young America
Hose Co., wheelmen, citizens in earriages
sad on horsebaak.
A conspicuous feature of the procession
was the handsomely decorated 'liberty car,
containing a bevy of prettily attired little
girls representing the states aad. territories
of the Union. Ths selection of the girls aad
their arrangement was nndsr the charge of
the ladies' special committee, of which Mrs.
L. Kline was chairman, and excellent
taste was displayed. Another feature al
most as attractive as the liberty oar was ths
float containing Miss Lillian Pomerey, who,
elegantly attired, and vary creditably repre
sented the goddess of libsrty. and Miss Eva
Wiley, who caarmiarly represented our
own stats, Oregon. The fire apparatus was
tastefully decorated aad added much to the
attractiveness of the pageant.
Owing to the rain the procsssisn did
not eover the ground that was intended.
The original plan was to march dowa' Sec.
ond street to Jackson, and thsnce west to
the court bonse square, where the oration
and other literary exercises were to take
place.: On reaching Madison street, how
ever, the parade moved west to the opera
house. Here the exercises were held.
Seated upon the stage were the little girls
representing the different states and tsrri
toriee, and othsrs who wsre to take part en
the program. The exercises began with an
overture, "The Silver Bell, by ths Marine
Band, followed by prayer by ths chaplain,
Rev. Geo. F. Plrmmer. Then the children
sang in a spiritsd manner, "America," after
which Miss Mildred Linville read in a clear
voice, with excellent expression, the Declar
ation of Independence. When ths children
had finished singing "Red, White aad Blue,"
President BIoss introduced ths orator of the
day, Hon. C. K. Wilkinson, of Eugene.
Mr. Wilkinson is, perhaps, ths youngest
orator in the state. In 1893, he was nomi
nated on the legislative tioket in Lane
county, several months before his 21st birth
day. "Although Lane is a strong republican
county, Mr. Wilkinson, a democrat, was
elected by a good majority, rnnning some
450 votes ahead of his ticket. He proved
himself a competent. legislator, and earned
tor himself an enviable reputation as an
orator. His address here was indeed a mas
terly effort. While his oratory was hot of
the spread egle sort, his address abounded
in lefty thoughts and patriotic sentiments
aad there was muoh in it ef practical worth.
The wrapt attention paid the speaker
throughout the thirty minutes consamed ia
delivering the oration, was an evidenoe thst
his remarks were heartily appreciated " by
the vast assemblage. When Mr. Wilkinson
had finished, ths band playsd another beau
tiful seleotion, and the audience, was dis
missed. ' ' - ' ''

The anticipated departure within a few
weeks of Miss Leon Louis for her Indiana
home was made the occasion of a pleasant
party given by the "Maids of the Mist" on
Monday evening. Miss Louis bad organized
this social and literary club, and acted as its
president during the winter. : The members,
with s few gentlemen friends, met at Miss
Aimee Ly ford's at half past five snd from
there walked ever to the grove across Marys
river. - Here a lunch was served under ths
trees and a happier party never gathered
about a sylvan board. After respects had
been paid to the refreshments, toasts wsre
ia order, and the original poem detailing the
history of the "Maids of ths Mist," rscited
by Miss Louis, captured the hearts of her
hearers. As the shades of night were gath
ering, Chinese lanterns wsrs lighted and
hung among the .frees, stories and songs
filled in tha interim uutil the moon arose,
when the party wended its way homeward
A. C, True, director of all the government
experiment stations, with -headquarters at
Washington D. . C, :arrived in .Corvallis
Saturday; rsmaining- nntil . Tussday noon.
Mr. True ia chief of the sub-division of the
department of agriculture having control of
the experimental station work throughout
the country, and is now on an official tour of
inspection of the differeut stations, number
ing in all fifty-three, xhe hrst one visited
this trip was ths . Minnesota station.
Coming westward, hs has inspected the
work at the stations in North and. South
Dakota, -Montana, Idaho and Washington.
From here he goes te Utah, tbance to Den
ver to attend the annnal meeting of the asso
ciation of Amsrioan agricultural colleges
and experiment stations, that convenes tha
16th inst.
Prof. True is very much pleased with Ore
gon, especially the Willamette valley whose
green foliage and waving fields of ripening
grain, famish a striking contrast to the bar
ren,' sandy deserts which he has recently
traversed. When asked regarding the work
at the Oregon experiment station, ha had
no criticisms to offer. The result of bis in
vestigations would be reported in detail to
his superiors; such information as hs had ob
tained, not being deemed proper matter for
publication at this time. He, however,'
ssemed to be pleased with much of the work
carried on in Oregon. . On acoonnt of our
favorable climitio conditions, this was an
exceptionally good field in which to carry
on experimental work, and Prof. True anti
cipates that . the world of agriculture will
derive much valuable information from tha
scientific investigations that are now being1
carried on here.
The work of the agricultural colleges and
experiment stations has already resulted ia
benefitting the agricultural interests of the
country to a great extent. These benefits
will increase as the investigations which
have only begun, are carried on to a success
ful termination. Mr. True believes that
changss in the personnel of the faculty
should rarely be made. Much pains, how
ever, should bs taken in the selection of ic.
struotors, to secure the best men obtainable.
Those connected with the station work
should bs especially well qualified fer the
duties thsy are required to perform. Those
experienced in scientific research and inves
tigation will accomplish mors good for the
institution and be of far more value to the
agricultural interests than ths inexperienced
ones. The demand fer ths ssrvicss of the
former class is growing eaeh year, snd, with
this increased demand, there has been a
steady advance in salaries, so that now, to
attain the best possible results, colleges,
particularly thoss in which the scientific
course is made most prominent, are required
to raise ralaries rather than decrease them.
Mr. True says that the salarias paid in Ore
gon are much lower thaa those paid at most
of the agricultural colleges of the country.
He also stated that in establishing these in
stitutions the federal government expected
the different states to bear a fair share of
ths burden. So far the states havs not done
this, although in some few instances, they
have made liberal appropriations for the
oarrying on of experimental work. In any
avent they are expected, since they receive
sash magnificent endowments from the fed
eral government, to furnish the needed
buildings and apparatus. In this regard,
Mr. True intimated that Oregon bad been
somewhat neglectful of hsr duty. Before
returning to Washington, Professor True
intends visiting the stations ia Utah, Colo
rado, Wyoming, - Nsbraska and, perhaps.
Kansas. The duty of inspecting the work
at the other stations will be delegated te
assistants.

The merchants of Corvallis generally are
to be complimented upon the attractiveness
of their Fourth ef July decorations this
year. There seemed to have been more
pains taken with the decorations in honor
of the occasion this' year than formerly,
nearly every business house in town making
a liberal displry of flags, festoons of bunt
ing and patriotic emblems'. A detailed de
scription of the decorations would require
columns of spaoe to do them . justice.
However, the stores that were especially
noticeable for the attractiveness ef their
displays were these of S. L; Kline, Hodes
k Hall, F. A. Alexander, the Gazettjs of
fice, and G. F. Cecil, the decorations of the

There is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the lasj, few rears was
supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease, and prescribed local remedies', and
by constantly failing;' to: cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitutional dis
ease and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufac
tured by F. J, Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio,
is the only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars reward for
any case it fails to cure. . Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address,
