Recent events demonstrate that the Cubans are not main taining simply 4 guerrilla war fare, but are pursuing an- organ ized, regular and systematic cam paign. They are doing every thing possible to deserve recogni tion from the powers as belliger ents. When the United States government formally " rec&gnizes the Cuban republic, the success of the revolution will be assured. Spain is bending every effort to retain control of the ' island, but she realizes in this conflict that her cower has been wasting and waning. There are PTave doubts as to the advisability of this govern ment annexing Cuba, but the sympathies of the. people of this nation are with the Cuban patriots and there is practically but one sentiment in regard to the matter of their being red nized ks citizens "of an , indepen dent government. . There, is no fixed period in the growth of revolution under the law of na tions when the revolutionists are entitled to be treated as belliger ents and not as rebels. The matter seems to rest wholly with the various nations, according to their several and indi vidual views and ideas. The United" States has at this time a perfect right to treat with Cuba as a free and independent nation. Spain, her self, has furnished a precedent in her recognition of the south ern states as belligerents, during their rebellion against the red, white and blue. ! It is but natural that the citizens of the United States should so deeply sympathize with 'the people'of Cuba in their en deavors to rid themselves of the Spanish yoke. The spirit of ly6 is still strong in the American heart and thrills responsive to the ca-1 of a brave people, strug gling amid , like difficulties and against like oppressions: BiNGER HermXnn, according to his wont, is visiting the va rious sections of his district ac quainting himself with the va rious requirements of the people he represents. Mr. Hermann has an enviable reputation as a tire less and effective worker in be half of his constituents and earns and deserves the popularity he enjoys. Mr. Hermann firmly "believes that the Willamette river can and ought to be made navi gable as far up as Eugene. He is going to use every effort to secure sufficient appropriations for the purpose, and from his influence with the river and har bor committee he will doubtless be successful. This will mean much to the people of the valley. He understands that this matter effects most directly more of his constituents than any thing else he will be called upon to look after in his capacity as represen tative, and he will give it his at tention accordingly. J,665 The" idea, however, is it purely patriotic one. and will be carried out with or without the aid and cooperation of the state press in general. " "Newspapers are not' supposed to be merely mercenary advertis-i irig circulars. 3 They owe it to themselves and their "patrons to give an occasional exhibition of unselfish enthusiasm for worthy ojects. It is easier to be cyni cal, but enthusiasm is more interesting. CENSUS FOR X895. Assessor Alexander yesterday turned over to the county clerk his census, retrtrns. of the, state of Or egon for 1895. The figures com plete are as folloTs: . Legiil voter? 18,009 Males, over 21 and upwards..: 18,009 Males, under 21 and over 10 782 Milw. r.nder 10 ' .

Lincoln county haa now a total pop ulation of 3,325, which added to Benton's 6,292, give a total of 9, 617. This makes a gain for the two counties in five years of 1,367, "or 16$ per cent. AT THJt THSATRB. Owing to numerous other attractions, the Pay ton Comedy Company did not receive the patronage they justly deserved during their . .second visit to our ' city, last week. The most successful bill of the engagement was the strangely novel drama "Trilby," which is just now having such a run in all the large cities of the United States. "Jack o' Diamonds" held the boards SatmrW night, and the following evening "Falsely Accused" wai presented. The success of these performances was mainly attributable to the work of Miss Lucy Payton and Messrs. Sentor Fnyton and F. C. Molyneaux. Mr. Payton achieves a new claim to popular and critical applause with each appearance. Of all the actors who have appeared in this city of late, there is none from whom an intelli gently conceived and nicely finished perfor mance can be more confidently expected. There is always an approximate certainty that from him at any rate will come some new gratification and delight to the theatre goer. "We commend his company to the amusement-loving people of sister cities. .Letter List. if Following is the list of letters remain ing in the Corvallis postoffice, unclaimed Oct. io, 1895.

Hood's SarsaparS.ia Is the Only True Bleed Purifier Prominently in the public eye today, IDLE SCORNING COMES CHEAP. Mr. Dodd and the rest of the 'testimonial" . committee are really not designing: the over throw of the government They are not secretly conspiring for the accomplishment 01 some untoward purpose. It must be gently insisted upon that they are not at all malevolently in clined, but are as mild-mannered and soft-hearted as can be desired. Neither is the idea of bestowing the proposed gift upon the naval namesake of our state, vicious nor . particularly ill-conceived. The motives are patriotic. There are good precedents for the move ment. Everything is to be vol untary there will be no "hold ups," no coercion. Some of the state papers, how ever, seem to regard the move ment as a very sinister one. They apparently fear that there is a stinger at the business end and are either hotly abusive or coldly critical. They fail to give any reason for their hostility, leaving the committee no oppor tunity to explain or refute. It expects to be at practically no expense, and will have no money for advertising, so, of course, there is "nothing in it," for the papers from a selfish standpoint. COHEGE SQUIDS. New students are continually coming in. A number of professors have attended the fair at Salem. Thus far the classes have not been divided for the purpose of pursuing the usual liter ary course. The entertainment held in the college chapel last Friday evening, was in every re spect a complete success. The many colored flags of the signal sta tions have not yet been unfolded to the breeze; as a result, fair weather still con tinuos. The Eecond year agricultural boys will have six months of blacksmithing this year They have not been accorded this privilege heretofore. , The instruments for the second year mechanical drawing class have not arrived, consequently there is quite a number of- studants without employment in that line. Material from various departments of the O. A. C. was taken to Portland this week, to be exhibited during the North Pacific Industrial Exposition now being hold there. The Eugene football team is anxious, to meet the O. A. C. boys on the 26th inst. She will pay' expenses and give one-fourth' gate receipts. At last accounts no definite arrangements had been made. . Lieut. Dentler is giving all the officers a course of lectures, with the object of in suring uniformity in the movements of the battalion. In our present conditions, with four well-officered companies, there is no reason why we should not be the best drilled cadets in the state. '. Tuesday morning the "great book" at the O. A. C. showed an enrollment of 308 stu dents. When the winter term begins, there will be another increase, and then we will show nearly 400. This speaks well for our institution, which is yearly becoming more widely known, and which is now one of the leading colleges of the northwest. PHILOMATH ITEMS. Mr. James Sheak and family moved out of town Monday. The new flour mill is rushing business in order to supply the demand as fully as pos sible. ' " About fifty or seventy-five Japanese haveJ been at work in and about town for the last few days. Of course their labors have been confined to the railroad, and the appearance of the track is very much improved. Huge bales of hops are to be seen on our streets nowadays. These bales are pleasing to the eye, for they mean that money is really in existence and that we poor Wcbfeet are to have at least a part of our share. It is remarkable how interested the people have become in elocution. Even the learned professors are learning to gesticulate in the most graceful and amusing way. Still a per son who is unable to speak in public is con sidered poorly educated. We had a train-wreck on a small scale on Monday of this week. .'While making a fly ing switch, the engine of the worktrain ran violently back into a flat car, throwing the car into the air and smashing in the water tank at the roar of the tender. - The flat car was thrown off the track, but not seriously damaged. Nobody was injured so far as we have been able td learn. O. I. c. Unlaundried white shirts, re-enforced back and front, linen bosom, 45 cents each. or $5.00 per dozen at F. L. Miller's.
