That popular literary organization, wl ose members bare been engaged in the stud; of Shakespeare during the past few months, has arranged with Mr. Hannibal A. Will iams, a wetlknown Shakespearean inter preter, to give a recital here Monday even ing, Oct. iMth. His subject will be the ever popular play of "Honry IV. " Speaking of Mr. Williams' impersonations the . Ore Con ian of the 15th has the following: La;tnighta very large audience, repre sentative of the culture and education of Portland, was assembled at Arion Hall to hear Mr. Hannibal A. Williams, a well- tlirousIlOUt the State a", sncli ac- known Shakespearean reader and inter- tion by their leaders in Portland. Ipreter.of New York, in -The Taming of It will then be manifest to the riullest populist in the state that The Independence West. Sit!e and the Albany Democrat mildly attack Senator Mitchell because he will not promise to secure appropriations for Willamette riv er improvements without the recommendation of the govern ment engineers. They say that more has been spent in surveys than in improvements. The Dem ocrat believes that any river pilot can in for in the government of the necessary work to be done, and that the "surveying business is all rot." These papers are earnest in their advocacy of an open river. In common with the rest of the Wil lamette valley press they realize the importance of immediate and extensive improvements. They seem to attribute Mr. Mitchell's attitude to indifference, or even hostility, and while in no degree abusive, blame him for not an nouncing that he will obtain appropriations independent ot any engineer's approval. This paper can not assume to speak for Sena tor Mitchell, but it seems lather unfair to scold him for not prom ising to do the impossible. Unfor tunately, perhaps, for the. project in point, but luckily tor the health of the national treasury, there is not the slightest chance of obtain ing govern men tar aid for water way improvements unless-the gov ernment engineers recommend such improvements. The Oregon delegation is not bashful in such matters. They have a national reputation for tenacity and liberal ideas as regards their state claims, in the river and harbor appropna tion. - There is an actual necessity for an extensive campaign against the bars, cnas and threatened cut-offs of the Willamette. The whole valley is deeply interested. Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Hermann are both outspoken in their utterances and strongly favor an extensive plan that will insure a navigable river from Eugene to .Portland. We don't want the appropriations in driblets or installments.. The existing bars ought to be removed and the banks strengthened and kept from washing into the river to form new bars. This will require a great sum of money, but our delegation, " small -as it is numerically; has sufficient influ ence to obtain a liberal appropria tion. The engineers must be "ounched aid"- first : made to real ize the importance and necessity of an ooen river, and they will promptly formulate and recom mend the required plaus. " This is a matter worthy of agifa tion bv the Dress of the state, and the West Side and Albany Demo crat have commenced bravely, But it would be more effective to nresent facts and figures than to cive the members of the Oregon delegation an undeserved scolding. Whatever they merit elsewise, thev deserve no tault-hnding as regards appropriations for Oregon. The efforts of (Jorbett and Fitz simmons to find a place where thev may hammer each other un molested, are developing the fact that the United States has some verv enersretic -and de.termined governors. Culbertson of Texas finding the old law ineffective called the legislature together and had a new one made. Gov, Clarke of Arkansas, who seemed somewhat drowsv at first, has rubbed his eyes and is assumin the aeeressive. He has personally notified the principals that they will not be allowed to fight in the state, and savs that their very nresence in Hot Springs will be considered an overt act and treat ed accordingly. A healthy mora : sentiment seems to pervade the country, and -the morality seems to be of the "fitin" kind, and is not content with mere moral suasion. ; thair nartv is o.nnf rolled as l.ncl been rliarged, by those who pan der to the morbid desires"of hobos and criminals rather than giv3 Mipport to good local government and sound business principle?. The miVtake made in nominating ami electing Pennoyer governor was emphasized in a very marked degree by the governor himself during both terms of hi adminis tration. His attempts to domi nate the courts, his efforts to re suscitate the old dead and buried states rights doctrine; his dis courtesy and insults offered to eminent visitors; his encourage ment to Coxey's army in violating local laws, and finally his opening the doors of the penitentiary and flooding the state with a host of criminals, marked him indelibly as a man dangerous to a civilized community and unsafe at large unless kept in a. very subordinate position. Mawkish sentimentality and morbid sympathy with crime emanate from a weak intellect and me who betrays either is unsafe as a guide and dangerous as a ruler. That populists should seek lo make such a man mayor of Port land is an evidence of their folly and dangerous tendencies which it is hoped will not be lost sight of by the people of our state. G. W. the Shrew," the first of a series of recitals, J Mr. Williams is a man of pleasant address and of strong dramatic power. lie held the undivided attention of his audience for two hours, during which time he rendered one of the greatest of Shakespeare's comedies, partly in an explanatory and partly in a dramatic manner. The impersonations were admirably given, and the character descriptions were clever delineations. Mr. Williams is in his 14th season, during which time he has visited all the largest Eastern cities. This is bis first tour on the coast, and he has met everywhere with flat tering result.-. The price of admission has been fixed at 60 cents, students, however, will bo ad mitted at half price.

Henry Boyson, of Fall Creek, passed through our valley Saturday with 80 head of gnats. They were purchased in Polk and Linn counties. The Alsea roller mill is now ready lo- grind but owing to the low stage of water the proprietor cannot do anything but wait. The mill has been thoroughly remodeled. Messrs. Otto and Grover Hedrick cams- over Saturday to attend the funeral of little Crystal Ryecraft, who died Friday night. Crystal was the daughter of G. H. and Cora KyecrafUjlShe was abouU16 months old. Miss Mamie Oglesby, a successful young chool marni, while spending her vacation at her home on Fall Creek, had q-iite an ad venture with a deer a few days ago. A hound chased a spike buck into the creek near the Oglesby home. Her father being abseut Miss Mamio and her little sister Grace went forth to attack the buck .bare handed. She seized him by the horn with one hand and by the nose with the other and held him until Grace could bring a rope with which she tied him to a tree until her father came and killed him. What ehame has an unruly urchin with such a school mistress as this? Profs. Bristow and Holm held a very in teresting meeting at the south school house Thursday night. Prof. Bristow delivered a lecture on the subject of education, after which Prof. Holm secured a class and gave a few lessons in reading. The meeting was well attended and all seemed to enjoy it very much. Gkorok Mossback.
