POSSIBLE CtUB.
Ever since the strange disappearance
of James Eglin, various theories have
been advanced regarding the matter, but
so far no definite, reliable information
hrs been furnished on the subject.- Sev
eral clues indicating foul play have also
been worked upon, but so far nothing
startling has been developed. Yesterday,
the Gazbttb received a communication
from A. F. Luther, who lives near
Granger, containing some information
which he thinks perhaps has a bearing
on the case. Relatives of Mr. Eglin
were shown the letter, but they consider
the information contained therein of no
especial value.
The letter is as follows:
"I have today found a lace shoe about
100 yards from my house. Its size is
about six or seven, and as I took it to the
house, I was informed by my wife that
our tittle boy had found a pair of rub
bers shortly after Jim Eglin disappeared.
The rubbers fit the shoe exactly and the
rubbers contain some dirt such as cannot
be found in this neighborhood. Please
inform Jim's relatives about it. . As my
place is only half a utile front what is
called Dead river, it M possible that Jim

A rOPDUST IK ARMS.
Last June, the populists of Scio placed
upon their ticket the name of J. W. Pat
terson for constable and when the ballots
were counted, he was found to be the
successful candidate. As a further mark
of esteem, he was appointed deputy
sheriff by Sheriff Gaines. He donned
the trappings aud the suits of office and
awaited impatiently for an opportunity to
display his fitness for the proud position
and, incidentally, to show the old parties
a populist's notion of how the business
should be haudled.
Last Saturday his opportunity came.
An escaped convict, one Pepperlin, was
thought to be in Albany, and to Patter
son was assigned the task of capturing
him. Buckling on his armor, and throw
ing over his countenance a look of sav
age determination, he sallied forth. His
conscience told him that the glittering
grog shop was the most likely place
wherein to seek his prey, aud suiting his
action to the thought, he hied him
there. His man was not in. but the con
stable, unwilling to doubt the prompt
ings of the "wee sma' voice," decided to
await his coming. . The period of his
stay were punctuated with sundry mugs
of ale, which so worked upon his imagi
nation that he began to . believe
that he was a populist member f
the legislature and must hold something
up. This he proceeded to do. Mount
ing a convenient table, he drew his trusty
weapon and in stentorian tones unreeled
his drunken vocabulary, and as he call
ed the roll, the dozen or more men pres
ent tumbled over one another in their
frantic efforts to escape. The bartender
telephoned for Acting Marshal Wilmrm-
son, and after a desperate strugglaJhe
offender was disarmed 'and hustled' off to
jaiL -And now, as he chews the cud of
reflection, and expectorates at the nail
holes in the floor, the thought comes to
him that even a populist must obey the
law.

aches," writes C. P. Newman, Dug Spur,

Every . member-elect of the
house -who has taken the oath, of

the Benson house, as the Orego
nian terms it, not only has a ma
jority of all the members elect
ed, but has all the members that
are so far legally entitled to act
as members. The senate, under
standing the" situation,; Sis;-ready
and willing to "reccmize' .the
house.- Simon, however, declares
every movement in this direction
out ot ordeh As the recoarni-
t36.h'eement hasn't a two-thirds'
majority, appeals from his deci
sion would tail. - oimon can

the manifestation of j ust ice and
public spirit. However,: the
days of miracles are past. i
Populists .admit that Bourne
is tneir leacer. oourne is a
gambler politics to him are no
more than a game or cards. His
stakes now are furnished by Cor
bett and Simon. The very pop-
ulist headquarters in the Elridge
block -are part of Corbett's ex
pense account. Our Mr. .Whita
ker may not be disposed to credit
this statement, but our Mr. Whit-;
aker is neither Mr. Bourne's
bookkeeper nor cashier. He is'
simply one of Bourne's legisla-"
tors'. -Bourne's expenses are nec
essarily heavy. Bourne, as ev-'
eryone knows, has no money of A
his own. The principal contnb- j
utbrsi to Bourne's fund are the
Portland street railway compa
ny,"' the O. R. & N. 'company,
the S. P. company, Cyrus Dolph,
Donald Mackay, the First Na
tional bank and other wealthy
men and corporations. r Lord,
Kincaid and the various com
missions are taxed for the outside
expenses.?
The sole purpose of these peo
ple, of course, is the accom
plishment of economical and re
medial legislation. The Port
land men,: besides, don't wish
any .man who has ever had free
silver ideas to hold any -public
office in Oregon. They wish to
elect Mr. : Bourne speaker at all
lazzards. ' The populists are de
termined that the next senator
from . Oregon shall be a man of
means 'and will do all 'in their
power to delay organization un-,
til Mr.Corbett has his senatorial
plans developed." Kincaid is de
termined that the secretary of
state shall be called down in the
matter of fees, so he returns
much of his milkings to the
people through their representa
tive, Jonathan Bourne. Mr.
kincaid is to be the populist
nominee for secretary of state in
98.
Governor Lord was closeted
yesterday for a couple of hours
with Johnathan Bourne and Joe
Simon. The object of the inter
view has not been made public,
but it was doubtless for the pur
pose of devising some scheme for
benefitting the taxpayers. Gov
ernor Lord is perhaps to be sena'
tor.

Just as the Gazktth went to press, an
exciting altercation occurred on Main
street between H. B. Miller, president of
the Agricultural College, and J. Fred
Yates, one of the leadiug Corvallis attor
neys. It seems, that Miller hunted up
Mr Vates this morning and accused him
of circulating certain reports derogatory
to Miller's character. Yates demanded
of Miller his authority for making such
accusations. The latter at first declined
to give the information and finally said
be did not know.
"Now, Mr. Miller," said Mr. Yatts,
"do yon presume to come to me and de
liberately accuse me to my face of
misrepresenting you, without being able
to give any satisfactory ground for the
accusation? Tell me who told you I mis
represented you, and we will go to him
right now.". -
The conversation grew more ezcited
and Miller told Yates "You are a liar!"
Yates promptly knocked the president
over. Iu falling, he grappled Yates and
the two tell in the street Yates broke
loose and continued to thrash his oppo
'nent until separated by friends. -
. Mr. Greffoz, the jeweler, who witnessed
the affair, states that the above account is
correct Mr. Miller could not be seen by
the reporter, but Mr. Yates said he re
gretted the affair sincerely. The difficulty
was not of his seeking,, and he felt called
upon to resent the insult offered. Mr
Yates has the reputation of being apeac-
able gentleman, and the citizens of Cor
vallis, without exception, consider that
he was justified in his vigorous treatment
