&0rkIIi$ (Svelte. 6 Issued Every Tliu-!ay Morion by The Gazette Pub'isiing Co. B. W.JOHNSON,- ni'i'i CORVALUS. OUKOK r 27. 18:):, PATRIOTISM IN THE- SLiiUJLS. PATRIOTISM cannot be beaten into the people; it must be taught them. They must absorb it from very infancy. They must-gather it froiri their surroundings breathe it in from tho very air about mem. i irueiy patriotic people are a just people, loyal to their own institution;; they re spect loyalty in others; stout for defense, thev have no thought of conquests. The American citi zen of the future will be educa ted in patriotism and loyalty intensely American. The incul cation of patriotism is being made as much a part of public school work as instruction in the 'three R's." The school boy and school girl are taught to love our country and our country's flag. They are made familiar with the lives and history of the grand men of the republic. The American flag is ever before their gaze. They absorb patriotism; it is made a part of their very existence. Those who attended the exercises of the public school children last Friday in celebra tion of the birthdavs of Wash ington and Lincoln, could not but feel a thrill of pride and sat isfaction as the children lauded the government and its heroes. It was not a lip service merely; they spoke intelligently and from the heart. All over the land went up the chorus. In thous ands oi school houses and from hundreds of thousands of child ish lips were . spoken words of praise for The Father of His . Country- and the preserver of the republic. Corvallis is locally patriotic as well as nationally, and believes that the exercises of her school children, in senti ment, rendition, interest and understanding, were equal to those of any school in the land. grandeur in a soldier's death whether he receive the final sum . mons on the field of carnage or passes quietly away surrounded by loving friends when the thun der of cannons and the clash of arms have become but a memory. The glory of a soldier is still around him. Not alone his geni al qualities nor his sterling man hood called for the manifestation of respect and honor accorded Robert Erwin when all that was mortal of him was laid to rest last Sunday afternoon. He was a soldier an actor in the nation al tragedy of over thirty years ago a valiant defender of our flag and our union. Republics are not ungrateful. The people j honor the faithful soldier and in j the sad services of last Sunday they paid tribute to Robert Er- j win's noble qualities as a soldier and as a man. The old soldiers ! are fast answering the final - roll call. It will not be long before the last scarred veteran joins his comrades on the other side of the river, but these gray-haired boys in blue leave for a legacy to their children and their children's chil dren the grandest, proudest, best nation the world has ever known. Favors Hermann's Return. Editor Gazette: It seems that an organized effort is being made by some of the politicians and office seekers of the valley to defeat Hermann at the Albany convention. If Aermann has been unfaithful to the interests of the state, and has failed to do his duty as a public servant, then he ought to be turned down and a new man put in his place, but on the contrary if he has been a faithful servant and has done his duty to the state, as his long congressional record shows, then he ought to be retained. He is better quali fied now by long experience, great knowledge . of public affairs, and high standing in congress, to do more for Oregon than any new man could possibly do for years. While politicians are schemeing to defeat him, he is . actively at work to advance the interest of his state. The people ought to take a hand in this matter, attend the primaries and see that good, competent men are elected as delegates to-attend the'- cohven- '4tf nn-Si&ikwho will do the rip-ht thing and not b influenced by politicians, who usually work, for themselves and not for the pub lic good. If faithful,, successful work. for his state counts for anything,- thejn THeFfnann should be returned to congress. . ..... -- .. A Voter Elk City, Feb. 24, 1896. ' College Notes. There is considerable study among certain persons at; the col lege as to who the person, J. V. Belmont is. Does anyone know? The students of the college were pleasantly entertained in the college chapel Tuesday morn ing, by two violin solos, rendered by Prof. Yoder, of Portland. One of the selections was Wallace's Cornet Imitation (triple tongue). All the classes are preparing their programs for commence ment, each vieing for the best program, ihe sopnomore ciass will vary entirely from the usual program, and present instead the two act comedy-drama, "Hickr'y Farm." This is a new venture and they should be assisted as much as possible. The baseball game last Satur day, between the O. A. C. nine and the old college nine, was a very good game considering that it was the first of the year- The score resulted in a defeat for the O. A. C. nine, it being 25 to 36 in favor of the old college. There will, be a game next Saturday afternoon, the weather permit ting, between the old college and Cauthorn hall. The lecture last Friday even ing before the students of the O. A. C. and citizens of Corvallis, by Hon. Thos. H. Tongue, of Hillsboro, entitled "Genius and Plodding, ' ' was a very able essay. The chapel was well filled with students and citizens and all seemed to enjoy the lecture. We hone to have a number of lecturers with us dur ing the coming season. ' The classes are all organized at the college, the officers being as follows: Senior class President, W. F. Keady; Vice, Jos Smith; Sec, Bertie Linville; Treas., C. Iv. Owsley. Junior class Pres., C. R. Porter; Vice, R. E. Gold en; Sec, H. J. Elliot; Treas., Geo. Korthauer. Sophomore class Pres., E- W. Stimpson; Vice, Chas. F. McKuight; Sec, Miss Mabel Johnson; Treas., Geo. E. Weaver. Freshman class Pres., W. F. Patterson; Vice, Miss Fannie Getty; Sec, Miss Frankie Cauthorn; Treas., Miss L,eona Smith. The Sorosis literary society of the college had a program pre pared for Washington's birthday, but it was postponed for a week for certain reasons. It will be rendered Saturday evening as follows: Roll call, answered by quotations;' music, orchestra; Life of Washington, Carrie Ly ford; Eulogium on Washington, Francis Getty; piano solo, Millie Ulhman ; Description of Mt. Ver uon, Mary Simpson; Washing ton's Love Affairs, Hulda Hold en ; Ode to Washington, Frankie Cauthorn; music, orchestra. Only members of the society and faculty will- be present. After the program the members of the faculty present will be entertained by the society. Monroe Items. Mrs. M.' L- Barnett is troubled with neuralgia and toothjiche. Rev. Lee's son Joseph has gone to Astoria, Oregon, to commence teaching school next Monday. Preacher Lee is holding revi val meeting at the M. E. church, assisted by Brother M. C. Starr, of Salem. John Carpenter, who lives three miles east of Monroe, was in town Sunday visiting with his father, J. T. Carpenter. Mr. Wm. Wolf says he is go ing to grub up his hop yard and quit raising hops, and we hear of others talking the same way. Mr. M. L. Barnett says his wife had nuralgia in her head so bad that he could hot leave her to attend the lecture last Thurs day evening. Mr. Alexander, of Corvallis, who came here to make arrange ments for the A. P. A. lecture, is a good worker and made many friends. Come again, Brother Alexander, we welcome you to our hearthstone. Mr. Elgin, the proprietor of the new store at Dusty postoffice, seven miles northwest of Monroe, was in town and says he is about to close a deal with W. D. Kay for his store. Mr. Kay is well off and the owner of a large farm adjoining the town of Monroe. The A. P. A. lecture delivered by Rev. Frank Abram Powell, at the M. E. church last Thurs day evening, was listeded to by a fair audience. The best of order prevailed. A good many say . that Mr. Powell is the best and most forcible speaker they ever heard. It has caused men to stop and think where we stand today; and if we are not mistak en there will be a council of the A. P. A.' organized in Monroe in the near future. ""'. POLITICAL PLATFORMS. Parties and Politicians Arraign edA Plea for Clean Methods. The foregoing brief outline of the four political platform adopt ed in 1892, tends to show the drift of public sentiment on some ques tions. In many respects titev all want the same thing if one can understand the language used iu the platforms. I have been forci bly reminded of the methods e.m- ployed by our predecessors in pos session of this country by which they sustained their courage and their self esteem, when I have read the preambles and statements at the commencement ot some of these platforms, which' for want of space is not given here, but which can be found in almost any politi cal almanac; as shown, say in Cooper's "Praiiy" when Matorahee an Indian chief alter pointing out to his dusky squaw the difference between her personal charms and the beauty of a white woman, whom he wished to install in her place, and leaving her to meditate on this difference, which was not in her lavor, he turned away grunt ing, "Matorahee is very wise! What nation has so great a chief as th Dacotahs ?" One would think by reading the preambles to some of these plat forms, that the several parties were about on a level with this savage red skin, in some respects. This article is suggested by re marks, which I heard at a public meeting and address by a populist orator recently at the court house. There were present at that meet ing some ot the best citizens in this county. I understand that they adhere to the general doc trines in the populist platform. Some of them have talked with me on the subject and seem to be as sincere in their beliefs in that direction as any democrat can be to his political faith, or a3 I am to my political principles. It has seemed to me that repub lican papers in alluding to populist doctrines in an humorous or bur lesque vein are not following the method best calculated to draw the voters back to their former po litical allegiance, nor to prevent other voters from joining their forces. It is sometimes said, ''You cannot reform an old inebriate, so try to save the young." But it is not by burlesquing the liquor traf fic that you save the young. So it seems to me that it is not by bur lesquing the populist idea that you will prevent voters from joining that party when they come to the conclusion that their efforts to ward clean political management are in vain, I have yet to find a populist, who did not leave some other party because he thought it impossible to reform the methods of the party he had been in. Nor we find the Gazette oltimes speak ing in uo uncertain language about the manipulation of party ma chine work which has sometimes been calld the "Simon ring," if I mistake not. Is there any differ ence between a protest on part of the Gazette, and the protest made by the populist who leaves the party because he believes the 'Machin" allows eorruptiou to taint the platform we set out be fore the voters ? The only differ ence I can see is that the populist becomes discouraged of any thing better and goes into the other party hoping for cleaner methods there, while the Gazette sticks to its republican affiliations and fights for clean methods in the party. While we may suppose that many will not condemn . the populist from leaving a party which he has lost faith in, not bo much from the cardinal principles standing out in the platform as on account of the corruption manifested in some parts of ii; still more will be like ly to admire one who remains in the party and fights so long as he .has fighting strength left, for clean methods in party manipulation, rlK&br legislation which will pro tect all of the people and not only some favored classes. As stated at the beginning of this article, it seems to me that the place where the greatest at tention of all the people should be directed in the first place is on the platforms which the several par ties adopt, and in order that their wishes may be subserved in the framing of these most important utterances, it is necessary for the people to select carefullly at the party primaries the men they send to the conventions. For it is out of the delegates to conventions that the larger body of delegates come who meet in the higher con ventions, and who adopt the plat forms the parties are obliged to support if . they remain true .to their party allegience- The con ventions not only handle this the most important matter which affects the peoples' interests, but they also select the candidates whom they intend to support for election, and who are supposed to abide by the principles of the platform upon which they were elected, and not do as did a numer ous body in the last legislature, who impeded legislation, prevented its work, in the interests of the people of Oregon, and wrangled for the full term over the person ality of a U. S. senator. As if the individuality of any man who would be true to his party plat form, makes any differerence whvn he stands in the congress of the United Sutea, and supports the principles of his party, and casts his vote, without fear, or favor, for that legislation which is right in itself, and which is for the bene fit of all the people and not for any one class of people, whether railroad or manufacturing, or pro ducer, or what not. In the first place we must have our platform moulded so as to subserve Ihe best interests of all the people, snd protect no class. In the sec ond place we must have men in the legislature, and in congress who will stand by that platform, who cannot be bought by corpora tion money to vote for corporation interests, and who will insist that the legislature and congress shall perform its duty to the people of this great nation, regardless of the interests of any class to be pro tected at the expense of t lie brawn and sinew, thu devotion and pa triotism of the great mass of the people of this counlrw It makes one's blood boil, to use a figure -of speech, to witness the intermina ble wrangling, bickering and waste of time, money and energy which we see in every congress of this nation as it nioels from term to term, fighting over the forms of yielding to class " interests; the larger or lesser acquiescence in the demands of industrial, money or corporate, influence, some making their endeavors to restrain this 011 croachment on the rights of the people, and others exerting all their energies fo obtain for tho in terests, whom they . 'represent, the greatest concessions from the peo ples' representatives iu legislature and congress; paying, seemingly. no heed to the principles of our free government, no consideration lo the rights of the people who supply the very . wealth lh:y seek to wrest, by legislative methods, from them. As each vear rolls bv, we wit ness this spectacle until all ihe people actually groan, to use an other figure of speech, in ery anguish at the sight ol prostitution so abject, and betrayal of trust so great. Now this nation needs its Clay and its Webster, its Jeffer son and its Lincoln. Will the ex igiencies of the time raise others as great? Manifestly, it will not be out of the ranks of those who can see nothing better, uo greater use, no truer devotion to their great trust than to wrangle over the form of capitulation to the money or corporate influences which have at the throat of this nation and all its free people. The people of this nation can never rise above the conditions of vas sels until the will of tiie people can be incorporated in the legisla tion of the nation. When that is completely done then the United States of America will become what I verily believe she is des tined to become, the greatest and most powerful nation on the face of the earth. The united intelli gence of the people of this coun try will never be prostituted to corrupt purposes. One man's in telligence is as good as another's the world over, and especially is this true in this country, where all read and understand what they read. Single individuals, or small bodies of representatives, can in a measure, be influenced, an cor rupted. But corruption cbii never so much as touch the great body of voters who know what they are voting about, and that is what the citizens of this country do' know. There are several great cardinal principles in each of the political platforms. Perhaps the greater number, and safer in form, are in the republican platform. Long experience naturally tends to elim inate weak points and hold to strong ones. Ihe democratic plat form has also its great principles else how is it that voters will stick to it ? The populist platform has some good points, and the prohi bition doctrine contains a great moral principle. When the safe and sound can be conbined in one platform, the chaff eddying around the halls of congress will be blown away like fog before a summer breeze and the genuine American patriot will be found in congress enacting such legislation as the people who send him there, ask for, It is said that these principles will not combine. That they are antagonistic to each other. This I do not believe to be true. The principles will be found in har mony. The fallacies which sail under the name of principles will be cast out. It is impossible that principles founded on true econ omy, or on justice, or on patriot ism should be inharmonious. Such a thing is not possible. We find today in the Willam ette valley a condition of things which makes it almost impossible for the producers to live and meet ervous People should realize that the only true and permanent cure for their condition la to be found in having Pure Blood Because the health of every organ and tissue ot the body depends upon the purity of the blood. The whole world knows the standard blood purifier is larsaparilla And therefore it is the only true and reliable medicine for nervous people. It makes the blood pure and healthy, and thus cures nervousness, makes the nerves firm and strong, gives sweet sleep, mental vigor, a good appetite, perfect digestion. It does aU this, and cures Scrofula, Eczema, or Salt Itheum end all other blood diseases, because it Results prove every word we have said.

Others say they do not produce the right kinds of products. Others say it is because there, is no price for what they raise, which amounts to the same t'sing as no market. Cuiors say thai . rest is loo high. Now; all of the:-? people will admit that there is a great inequal. ity betw-'en the rate of interest that in contracted or and the pos sibilities of making it out of the soil. No one will deny that. All agree that in the first place these debts ought, not lo have been con tracted. But that .being contract ed Ihey shouid be paid as agreed upon. This inequality between the possibilities of tho productive energies of "Ilia soil and the pre vailing rate of interest is a subject for wise and prudent legislation. Perhaps, in order to understand what is best in this direction one has to take into consideration more than the state legislature and the lawful rate of interest. I do not pretend here to indicate what is the thing to do. But we all know that where there is an inequality so groat there must be an adequate remedy. And that remedy must be coming out ol the people them selves. - It seems to me that this is the point of divergence between the populist idea and the older politi cat ideas which we have been fol lowing for some years. I do not want to be understood as having any populist leanings, for such is not the case, but that makes no difference so far as this matter goes, because this is in relation to principles and not to individuali ties, and while' I can respect the populist who has left a party be cause he has despaired of ever seeing it become pure and subser vient to the will of the party vo ters, I the more respect those patriotic citizens who remain in their parties and fight to the last breath for clean and pure party methods, and for candidates who have the courage of their convic tions, and who can rise with the need of the times and apply the remedy the people demand, and insist that others shall do likewise. As we approach the coming elections, it is well to look care fully to the kind of men we send to the conventions, the kind of principles they put into the plat forms, the kind of candidates they nominate for the offices particular ly the legislative offices and con gressional offices which have to do with the making of laws, and the ministerial offices which have the enforcement of them. We need men of courage, and prudence. Men who will do just what the laws make it their duty to do, and men who will do just what the people electing them to office tell them to do. Men who have no principles, or those who are afraid to speak them out like men, for fear of offending some voter, I imagine the people do not want There are questions coming up before the next legislature, which require careful and prudent treat ment. We want good men there. The congress which is in a sad need of a political emetic will be affected by our votes. We need wise and above all honest men there. Ministerial officers should be chosen with care and a regard to their fitness and their willing ness to keep politics from interfer ing with their duty. Outside of those offices I care not how much politicians trade and scramble, but those offices all affect the peo ple and their rights and interests, and as I am one of those people those are the offices I want to see filled with the right kind of 'men. ; Joskph II.
