THE DREAM CITY.
We desire to again call atten
tion to our very liberal subscrip
tion offer outlined previously.
That it is most acceptable is proved
by the fact that we have already
received numerous responses, and
those who have in possession the
handsome volume of sixty-lour
World's fair views are most enthu
siastic in its praise. The work is
issued in the highest style of art,
with an elaborate stiff cover in
gold and colors, and the engrav
ings are printed on highly enam
eled paper. The -pictures are
10x11 inches and the pages are
11x13 inches in size, and the vol
ume is an ornament to any home.
We send it free, postage paid, to
every new subscriber; to any old
subscriber who renews for one
year and to any prison, subscriber
or non-subscriber, who sends us
one new subscriber, the remittance
for one year's subscription to be
forwarded itf each case.
A NATION OF REPUBLICANS.
Republicanism pervades the na
tion. Democracy has been over
whelmingly routed. The former
doubtful states are now in the
republican column and several
hitherto democratic states will
herealter be classed as doubtful.
The next president will surely be
the republican nominee, and the
next senate will be safely republi
can. Such are the facts demon
strated by the recent elections.
The new house of representatives
is overwhelmingly republican, so
that after the 4th of March, 1897,
the republican parly will take the
helm of government and guide I he
-shij of state awjjy from threaten
'ing shoals L and into the haven ol
Bafety. v
The people are. dissatisfied with
democratic management, or rather
mismanagement, and will have no
more of it. This is the simple
explanation of nnr political senti
ment. It is true that in some in
stances the republican party was
aided by local issues and by differ
ences among the two wings of
democracy. But on the other
hand in some states and notably
in New York, local issues militated
against the republicans. The
division in the democratic party
will very likely prove permanent.
There does not seem to be even a
6traw for drowning democracy to
clutch at.
The republicans in the East and
in the South are determined and
aggressive. They are not con
tented with half-way victories.
They believe in republican rule
and that what is good for the
nation is also good for the state
and the county. Herein we may
find a lesson for the republicans
of Benton county.
A year ago last June the repub
lican state and legislative ticket
had about 200 majority in this
county, yet the democrats received
the principal county offices. It is
said sometimes that there is no
politics in local offices, but that is
a mistaken idea. The possession
of such offices as sheriff, clerk,
etc., strengthens the party and in
creases its influence. Republicans
should be ali e to their own inter
ests and should possess enough
party pride and spirit to see that
next year the principal offices in
a republican county are not filled
by democrats.
EVERYBODY ENCOURAGED.
(The Corvallis Times possesses
a very sanguine sort of democracy.
In commenting unbn the late slato
elections it remarks: "There is no
occasion for democrats lo feel
discouraged at the result of last
Tuesday's elections." Democracy
has a reputation for fighting better
in adversity than when things are
coming its way, and if it can find
the slighest consolation in Tues
day's elections its fighting powers
must be of the bull dog variety.
It is a rather pathetic picture, or
be it a beautiful one, this rose of
hope springing up in the desert of
defeat.
There really is, we must admit,
no occasion tor democrats to feel
discouraged at the result of those
elections. Democrats, as citizens
of these United States, ought to
rejoice as heartily as any other
citizen over the prospects for this
nation that are augured by Tues
day's results. Every man who
feels a pride in being an American
citizen and who loves his country
has cause to be glad, for the pres
ent, reck'ess, extravagant, unbusi
ness 1 ke, un American manage
ment of our national affairs will
soon come to an end. Then we
will appear to the world in our
rightful position the foremost na
tion on the face of the earth.
There is no occasion for demo
crats to be discouraged. Democ
racy has shown its incapacity and
will be forever banished from
power, but the democrats may
v'njoy the blessings of an enlight
ened and patriotic administration
as well as the blackest republican.
Council Proceedings.
At the council Monday evening
I he petition of Corvallis saloon
keepers ft r a reduction of licenses
to $400 was reported adveisely by
Messrs. 11 a it less and Blakeslee of
the finance committee, and the
report was adopted, so that the
fee for conducting a tippling house
in this city will remain at the
former figure, $500. Those who
favored the reduction pra3'ed for
were Oouncilmen Flett and Sam
uels. The petitions of the fire compa
nies asking for a monthly allow
ance of $5 each was made the sub
ject of a report by the fire and
water committee which recom
mended a quarterly allowance of
$9 for each company, but a
motion to adopt the report failed
to carry. -
Hills were allowed aggregating
$331 on the general lund, and $44
on the street fund.
At the October meeting of the
council the fire and water commit
tee was instructed to confer with
the water company relative to
securing somo favorable basis
upon which to increase the city's
water supply. - During the interim
several sessions were had -with t he
company, and as a result five prop
ositions were submitted to the
council Monday night, upon four
of which the committee reported
adversely. Each proposition
required that the city give the
company an exclusive franchise,
and each included a provision that
the city be entitled, free of charge,
to water for city hall and sewerage
purposes. The acceptance of any
one of the propositions would
increase the cost of the city's
water supply. ,
In proposition number one the
company offers to lay mains and
furnish whatever amount of water
the city mayi need within the ter
ritory bounded by the river on
the east, "B" street on the .south,
Ninth street on the west, and iay
lor street on the north, at an annu
al cost of $1,500 per year, the city
furnishing ils own hydrants and
placing as many as it may see fit
within the prescribed territory.
Special agreements are to be made
for hydrants outside these limits.
Proposition second proposes lo
lay adequate mains in the princi
pal part of the city and place not
less.! han 25 hydrants at $5 each
per month. It the city wishes to
purchase and keep in repair its
own hydrants, $4.50 each per
month will be charged by the com
pany. The mains are to be ex
tended lo other parts of town as
the consumption of water justifies.
The third proposition is to place
certain additional hydrants, toft he
number of five, where most nec
essary at present, and charge $5
per month each for the same, and
a like amount for hydrants already
in use, for which the city is now
paying $3.
The fourth proposition is similar
to the third except that the rate
for hydrants now in use shall
remain as at present for four3ears
hence, the date at which the com
pany's franchise and contract shall
expire. The company agrees to
run a main two blocks for each
additional hydrant taken. The !
city is required to enter into an J
agreement not to reduce the pres
ent water rate to consumers.
Fifth, it is proposed that the city
be bonded for $30,000, this amount
to be turned over to the company,
with which it is to put in a com
plete water system, including a
reservoir on the Catholic ceme
tery hill, the city taking a mort
gage on the entire plant. Iu con
sideration of the payment of the
interest on the bonds, whatever it
hiay be, the company agrees to
furnish any number of hydrants
the city itself may choose to put
in, provided the city does not
require the company to extend ils
mains to the extreme outskirts of
the city for three or . four years,
except to Wilkins' addition for
three or four hydrants. The com
pany proposes to repay the city in
installments of $5,000 every five
years, and the interest on the
amounts so liquidated shall be
payable to the company at the
bond rate. This also involves the
agreement on the part of the city
not to interfere with established
rates to consumers.
In all (he propositions the price
for suppling cisterns with water is
to remain as at present, $3 each
per month.
Death of Mrs. John Wiles.
- The funeral of Mrs. John Wiles,
an Oregon pioneer of 1845, oc
curred yesterday at 10 o'clock in
the Presbyterian church of this
city. The services were conduct
ed by Rev. E. J. Thompson, and
were unusually impressive. The
building was well filled by friends
of the deceased, many of whom
were old pioneers, and the profus
ion of floral tributes testified to
the universal esteem in which she
was held. Between the hours of
10 and 11 the many business
houses of the city were closed out
of respect for the deceased.
Martha Ann Wiles was the
daughter of Joseph T. Huggard,
and was born May 13,
1S33, in Calloway county, Missou
ri, in which state she resided until
1845. During that year with hei
parents she came to Oregon with
the St. Ciair company, and upon
the arrival ol the family in Ore
gon they settled near Philomath
in this county. Soon afterward
her mother died, leaving her a
child of but 13 v'ears, with the
care of a family of five children.!
To add to her cares her older mar
ried sister, Mrs. Greenberry Srvilh,
died, leaving two small children,
whom she reared and cared for up
to the time of her marriage. June
8,1851, to John Wiles. At. this I
time the family were living at j
Wells in the north end ol the:
county, and here she resided with '
her family until ISS5. when she.
moved to Corvallis. At the time)
of her arrival in Benton county
there was but one other family
here, that being J. C. Averv's.

Thomas Ivirkpatrick, of San Fran

Wiles, of Wells, Benton county.
Her death was a quiet one and
just prior to her passing away she
called her family about her air1 lo
each gave parting vV.Vds of coin
fort and advice. Mrs. Wiles had
been a -member of the Baptist
church for many years and was'a
conscientious and earnest Chris
tian. The interment occurred at
the Locke cemetery.
The College Dairy.
It is only necessary to glance !
through the press ol the state to!
see that the Agricultural college
this year is attracting widespread
attention. This is particularly
true with regard to the experimen
tal work now being carried on at
the institution. Previous to this
year, criticisms of the college were
frequently noticed iu some of the
state papers, but now Uiat a more
thorough understanding of the
benefits accruing from its experi
mental work is had, the college is
favortioly mentioned whenever an
opportunity is afforded. The fol
lowing from4he Northwest-Pacific
Farmer, indicates the popular feel
ing toward the new daily:
"Professor French, of the Ore
gon Agricultural College, was in
the city last week, and expressed
himself as highly pleased with (he
prospect for having a fine dairy
and dairy herd at the college.
Professor Kent opens his class of
instruction this week in the new
creamery building with a class at
tendance of about seventy boys
and girls. The new building is
well equipped with all the neces
sary aparatus tor conducting first
class practical experimenls. Pro'.
Prench is on the outlook for some
resiistereu Jersevs. in comD nance
with a resolution passed by the
board of regents recently that all h
slock purchased for the station, 1
should be animals subject to regis-!
try. This means that the college!
is to have one of the best dai.yj
herds in Ihe state, as the professor
says he intends to lay a good foun
dation so the herd will always be
good. There are already two fine
Jerseys on the farm, lliese are
the two heifers which took first
and second premium at the stale
fair last year and which were if we
remember correctly, the best ever
tested in the state, one of them
giving about seven per cent butter
fat. This heifer which was named
"Corvallis Beauty" now has her
second calf and is giving 2 gal
lons of milk. Among the object
lessons in the dairy class will be a
ten-pound jar of butter, and placed
along on the same shelf other jars
containing the amount of butter
fat, milk sugar, water, etc., that
would be obtained from a like
amount of butter, as well as jars
containing the amount of milk
from which made, and the butter
milk and other residue. Each in
gredient will be iu a different jar."
