The two story residence of Mrs. James
Jacobs, a widow lady living in Job's Ad-
ition, was burned to the ground togeth
er with most of of its conteuts, Tuesday
afternoon. The alarm was turned in
about 2 o'clock, but upon the arrival of
the department, the building was a mass
of burning embers. The fire is supposed
to have caught from the kitchen flue, and
when dicovered by the family, who were
sitting in the shade on the north side of
the house, the roof was enveloped in
flames and it was with the. utmost diffi
culty that a small amount of beddiug,
wearing apparel, and other contents of
the house were removed to a place of
safety. Mrs. Jacob's children had been
blackberrying and only the clothing on
their backs was saved. The loss will ag
gregate probably $1500, but fortunately
Mrs. Jacobs had a policy of insurance on
the property which carried $700 on the
building and $300 on contents. The
policy was in the Continental Insurance

AND
The nomination of Wm. J. Bryan, the
boy orator of the Platte, did not arouse the
most intense enthusiasm aoiong the old line
democrats of Corvallis. They cannot dis
cover wherein the platform adopted savors
of the political principles they have followed
for years, and they look askance at the new
stylo of democracy that Bryan represents
Tbey are inclined to view this new move
ment in thcliKUtof a blow at the stability of
the government. . A great many of them re
fuse to express an opinion for publication
doubtless awaiting the action of the great
body of sound money democrats of the coun
try.
Mr. Gibson said he bad nothing to say for
publication as to his intentions. He consid
ers that governor Flower properly summed
the situation when he said the platiorm wag
a "crazy quilt ef anarchy," and the outcome
of "incompetent and brainless fools." He
denounced man of Altgeld's and Tilmnn's
stamp as "mischief-breeders and schemers
to ruin democracy."
N. B. Avery, whoso family name has been
synonomous with iteriinr democracy in
Benton county for years, said "Bryan is the
hist candidate that could hare been selected
to run on such a platform. The platform is
the worst ever put feefors the American peo
Die by any party of standing. It is unamer-
ican, undemocratic and promises disaster.
E. Holgate, wh- believes in the democracy
of Jufftirson, Jackson and Tilden school,
while declining to state how he will vote, has
no hesitancy in denouncing the platform.
He said, "I am not a believer in the type of
statesmanship represented by Altgeldt, Till
man and their associates. Democracy has
unfortunately been troubled with demago
gues and visionaries mors than the republi
can partv. While I am a gold standard
democrat, the adoption of the silver plank,
might have been condoned, but when the
convention went out ot its way to endorse
political innovations that are tinged with an
archy, it asks too much of genuine demo
crats. I believe the first and best thing to
do is to secure and preserve a stable govern
ment. The platform of Chicago panders to
'lawlessness."
M. Schmidt of the Occidental Hotel, de
clares that be is for '-Schmidt and ptutnes.
I have always been a democrat, but I am
now tor McKinley for I believe in proptec
tion and sound money. Protection is tho
thing."
Adam As roll, has been a democrat and be
lieves in free silver, but he is for McKinley,
believing that the great need of the country
u the return to the republican principles of
protection. He believes in more money, but
be thinks the first thing is to put iu circula
tion what money we have by setting the
factories to going.
Jesse Spencer, tho democratic war horse
and Tammany caioftan doesn't ' believe in
hiding his light under a bushel. He asys, "if
the populists have a spoonful of honesty in
their catcascs, which' I very much doubt,
they will flock out of the woods to vote for
Bryan and the so called democratic platform.
The platform is pjpulislic and tho can didate
is a populist. This country has experiment
cd with politic until the people are about
broke, and anothor dose will about finish
things. I don't know what I am going to do
yet, but w'nl probably find soms way out of
the wood." Spencer is glad that old Mis
souri is not disgraced by haying a Missou
rian running on such-a platform.
Louis Wilson says he thinks he will try
being a republican for awhile. "I have
found out by recent experience that protec
tion isn't such a bad thing after all, and
sound money we must have."
S. L. Henderson is out of town but he ex
pressed himself before leaving as disgusted
with the platform and the candidate.
John Ray in the Times, says: "Demo
crats having respect for themselves and coun
try will never submit to be coorced into vot
ing for a candidates or platform dictated by
Altgelt, Taubeneck, Butler, and Coxey or
any such men."
J. J. Flett says; "I bavn't gotten my
bearings yet, and like many other old line
democrats, am waiting to see what real dom
ocracy does.' ' He considers that the Chica
go convention was an assemblege of populists
masquarading under the name of democracy
and that it has no claim upon the support of
genuine democrats. -
W. S. McFadden, the democratic leader,
believes that McKinley will b elected, and
while he isn't a McKinley man, he seems to
regard Bryan's candidacy in an unfavorable
liht He is no desciple of the Tilman-Alt-geldt
school of democracy, and unless he
changes his mind as to the fltneu of things,
will not likely give his endorsement to. all
the ics and ism of the Chicago platform at
the election in November.,
A L. McFadden, who made an unsuccess
ful run for joint representative on the popu
list ticket, and who was a democrat before
he was a populist, charges the recent demo
cratic convention with thett. In a voice
ringing with indignation, his eye suffused
with team of political emotion, he wailed:
"The democrats have stolen our platform."

PRESIDENT B&USS AT SAtEM.
Mayor Gatch then stepped forward and
presented the orator of the day, Hon. J. M.
Bloss, ex-president of the Oregon State Ag
ricultural College at Corvallis, af gentleman
of fine attainments and scholarly presence.
Mr. Bloss wa3 original euoueh to depart
from tbe huckneyed platitudes of cheap
"Fourth of July "oratory, and took for his
theme the superb contributions of American
womanhood to tbe glories of tbe nation. He
paid ample tribute to the, achievements.of
the-nation's great men, soldiers and states
men, but claimed a modicum of it all for the
mothers of those men. He dwelt with pa
triotic fervor on the consecutive steps of pro
gress through which America bas risen from
a condition of colonial dependency to tbo
magnificent level of the dominating nation
of the earth, and urged the transcendent ex
amples of its leaders, men and women, upon
the "young Americans" before him, but no
where in his interesting story of American
successes or his discussion of American des
tiny did not forget to honor the women of
the land.
The distinguished speaker, as became a
college professor and president, was happily
partial to tho tremendious part played by
popular education in all this panoply of pow
er and pride and achievement, and he showed
conclusively that American schools had, and
would-continue to bear largely and with po
tent results upon the grand future of this, the
most advanced race on the globe.
Tbe address was most enjoyable and the
speaker was repeatedly interrupted by ring
ing applause. States man.1-

What Does It Mean ?
Has the Southern Pacific a
cinch upon Oregon as it has upon
California? This the question up
permost in the minds of many
Oregonians since the sale of the
O. R. &N. last Thursday. Of
course it is possible that the facts
will not warrant such a conclusion,,
but there are many potent reasons
for believing that the railroads of
Oregon, with one exception the
O. C. & E. are under the control
of the Huntington system. If this
is so, it is a matter of regret and a
matter which will result in lasting
injury to the state.
There is no positive evidence
that Mr. Huntington was directly
interested in the recent purchase
of the O. R. & N., it is true, but
there is a deal of circumstantial
evidence to indicate that . the
Southern Pacific had a finger in
Ihe pie, and will hereafter control
freight and passenger rates within
the state. Just previous to the
sale, Vice President Stubbs and a
number of other Southern Pacific
officials arrived in Portland and
remained there for several days.
It is generally understood that Mr.
Stubbs is very close to Mr. Hunt
ington and that no other person
than Mr. Stubbs would likely be
sent on such a mission. The party
while in Portland was in close con
sultation with O. R. & N. officials,
and tbe object ol their visit was
kept from the reporters, as of
course it would be indiscreet to
herald to the world the fact that
the O. R. & N. nad been absorbed
by the Southern Pacific, if such
was the case.
However, as a result of Mr.
Stubbs visit the recent' rate war
has been declared off, to take effect
July 21. The fact that the two
companies should have reached
such an adjustment of their affairs
at this particular" time, after the
rate war had been going on since
last October, is passing strange,
and gives color to the generally ac
cepted rumor that the two corpor
ations have been consolidated un
der one management.
If this theory, that the O. R.&
N. has been purchased by the
Southern Pacific, be correct, the O.
0. & E. is the only competing line
left iu the state. Mr. Huntington's
next move will likely be to gain
control of the local line and then
he will have Oregon as fully with
in his grasp as he has the state of
California. The people there re
gard the S. P. as a veritable octi
pus, and it is devoutly to be hoped
that Oregon will escape the fate of
her sister stale.
Speaking of Mr. Stubbs' visit
the Oreg nian of Saturday has the
following:
"Day before yesterday a private
car ot the Southern Pacific arrived
in Portland, bearing Third Vice-
President J. O. Stubbs, Assistant
General Passenger Agent H. R.
Judah and Assistant General
Freight Agent William Sproul, of
the Southern Paeinc, together with
Mr. Ed. Goodall. of the Pacifiic
Coast Steamship Company. Mr.
Stubbs remained quietly within the
confines of his car, and the fact ot
us presence was not known out
side of a small circle. On his arri
val, the officials of the O. R. & N.
were notified, and a general con
ference was held between the par
ties named, representing the South
ern Pacific, and Reciever E. Mc
Neill; !)is assistant' J. G. Wood-
worth; General Passenger Agent
W. H. Hurl burt, and General
Freight Agent B. Campbell, of the
O.R.&N.
'Evidently the matter had been
thoroughly canvassed beforehand,
both in this city and in San Jbran-
cisco, and an agreement was reach
ed which was acceptable to both
parties in interest. I his agreement
was duly ratified and signed, and
the same evening Mr. Stubbs and
his party took the night train for
their return trip to San Francisco."
The valley people have cause
for rejoicing that they yet have a
competing line. The O, C. & E.
has successfully coped, with the
two big corporation, and notwith
standing the sharp competition of
the O. R. & N. and the discrimina
ting tariff of the Southern-Pacific,
has done a fair business. The re
cent turn in affairs will most like
ly prove beneficial to the local
company, as the public will be in
clined to favor it as against its big
competitor.
Did Tou Ever Make Money Easy?
