Issntd Every Friday Horning by fke Gazette Publishing Co. 3. W. JOHNSON, - Business Manager. CORVALLIS, OREGON, April 23, 1897. A YAMHILL SPHEX. Mr. Cooper, the Yamhill sil verite, is busily engaged in lock ing the doors ori his forces, that none may escape. He is orga nizing and evidently believes that his organization encircles the hosts that voted for Bryan. Acloque, the naturalist, tells us that the Sphex wasp innocu lates crickets' with poison, drags them to the edge of its nest, and then visits the inner gallery to see if all is ready for their re ception. . Then, . dragging its victim in, it seals up the open ing. If, however, while the wasp is examining its inner cell, the cricket be removed, "the Sphex at first shows great anx iety, turns around and rushes miner ana uiuner. rinany, it returns to its burrow and sets to work conscientiously to seal up the opening, as if the cricket were within." Mr. Cooper is a political Sphex. Present signs strongly indicate that the cell he is so busily sealing up, is empty. U'REN, the patriot, like many another good man, has found that "a prophet is not without honor save in his own country and in his own house." Hav ing failed to receive the endorse ment in his own county that he expected, he is now holding meetings in other parts of the state, going as far away as South ern Oregon, he having a meeting advertised for the 23rd of this month at Jacksonville. Mr. U' Ren will find that the anar chists and hold-up sympathizers are as scarce in the other coun ties of Oregon as they are in Clackamas and that his revolu- j tionary tactics will be denounced as hard as they were here. If Mr. U'Ren was a wise man,, he would do as his partner, Mr. Si mon is doing go home, keep quiet and wait for the storm to, blow by and the people to for get his connection with the late boodle-yielding hold-up". - Ore gon City Enterprise. 'f J. Sj Smith, populist repre sentative from Linn county, and one of those who refused to perform their duty, has purchased and edits the Albany Imprint. In, : his salutatory he says: ".'Ivive and let live' shall be our motto and we shall endeavor to follow the 'golden rule' as far as it is possible for a member of the 19th biennial session of Elie Ore gon legislature to do" so." If Mr. U'Ren speaks correctly, Mr. Smith followed the "golden rule" quite successfully at Salem. Pdssibjy, however, it was green backs. Watson populists have- an nounced their determination to hereafter control the party. Na tional Chairman Butler refused to call the national committee together at their request, so at a recent conference of leaders held in Kansas, it was decided r to call si-irli a mpptinor for Tn1v- it1i A majority of the national com mitteeman are said to endorse this movement. Our populist friend . whose views appear in another column, evidently has "friends at court." Republicans of Benton county heartily endorse the pleasant things that the press of Oregon is saying of Hon. T. T. Geer. Mr. peer's name is prominently mentioned in connection with the collectorship of customs for the port of Portland, and his appointment would give genuine satisfaction throughout the state. He is a tireless and effective worker for the party and an honest, intelligent and capable gentleman. To compare the vote of either Chicago or St. Louis in the re cent municipal elections, . with that of last November, in an en deavor to prove a partizan gain or loss, is very far-fetched. Hard politics were lost sigh of in both citieSj and- the howling of "Dingley- bill" or something else is all out of place. The people voted for protection and they are going to get it. Hepp ner Gazette. U'Ren is not meeting with much success in his Southern Oregon tour. Saturday, at a meeting of Jackson county pop ulists, resolutions were adopted condemning the action of the populist members of the recent legislature in forming a coalition to prevent the organization of the house. '". . . A consulship is a far more suitable position for a man with xx. xi. minci a Lasics auu ciluuu- inents than the presidency of a college. . His wise friends will not regret his separation from a work for which he is not fitted. A POPULIST PROTESTS. Metalism is not Populism- False Gods and Evil Doc trines. Editor Gazette: I am glad that the populist leaders in Oregon have declared against entangling party alli ances. The fusion business may suit populists-for-office, but it disgusts populists who are such from principle. Pcnnoyer poli tics are not palatable to a genu ine populist. Let us maintain our own organization and refuse to consort with spoilsmen in the hope of a temporary victory. There is something that jars, however, in the cry that "popu lists are bimetallists. " It seems to me that many of our leaders, fresh from political conflicts, are unconsciously governed by mis taken ideas of expediency, rather than by principle. It is too much to expect that old-time populists who have been work ing and voting for years against the bungling, unscientific and unsatisfactory system ' of metal money should now devote their energies to the cause of perpetu ating that system, in a slightly changed form, from that we at present put up with. Most of us were carried off our feet last fall and shouted for silver. Toward the last of the campaign, I fancy, the old-time populists had a lost feeling and were somewhat apologetical. We realized that every respectable ar gument advanced in the cam paign either favored the gold standard or credit money. The populists have to face the fact that enthusiasm has misled them. But it was an honest mistake on the part of the masses and one that will not easily happen again. - It is a mistake, this attempt to overthrow the metalic money system by giving an artificial value to silver and voting power. into 'the hands of silver mine owners. We cannot advance by fortifying the enemy's' position. Let us hew to the line. Metalic money is an expensive means of exchange. We have only to consider the armies of men engaged in prospecting tor the precious metals, the armies engaged in digging out the ore and in all the processes by which gold and silver is converted into coin, the expensive machinery, the real wealth consumed, in producing this sham wealth, to realize how costly hard money really is. Besides these are the immense fortunes piled up by our gold and siver barons, and all must be paid for by those who use this money. But money is necessary -for trade and barter, and in doing away with one system, we must have a substitute ready. The populists (real) propose a govern ment paper issue sufficient for all demands of business. This money is to be backed by the wealth of .the nation. The objection has been raised that this plan would work only for an issue equal to the dues payable to the government. That when a man wished to realize on his paper money, the govern ment could hardly hand him over a farm, a business block, or whatever he wished, and that the people, knowing ' that the wealth of the country did not, in reality, back up the money, would not accept, it. This ob jection, while a valid one, is eas ily overcome. The government can keep a reserve of gold and silver bullion, and can pay the holder of the governmsnt paper iu bullion, at the prevailing mar ket rate, whenever he desires. Only a small amount of bullion would be required. The govern ment, to balk speculation, could temporarily suspend bullion payment when it became advisa ble. This plan does not make gold and silver money. It does, in deed, somewhat modify the pure ly "fiat" theory, but it disarms our critics of their only logical objections. Money, "backed by the wealth of the nation, is, of course, a mortgage on that wealth, and if the money is to be good, the mortgage must be forecloseable, for a lien that cannot be enforced is of no value. The plan of a bullion reserve recognizes this truth and conforms to it in a practical way. The reserve need not be large, for the very . will ingness of the government to exchange bullion for paper would cause people to prefer the legal tender paper issue. I do not desire to inveigh against our politician populists, for I recognize politicians : as a necessary evil, but it is neither the part of wisdom nor honesty to attempt to again lead the pop ulist party away from populist principles and make it a catspaw of mine owners.

Parties niter, ested in said change are hot per- mitted to see the petition. Prof. Sheak, Mrs. Lylle, O. V. While, Ethel Bradford, George MeDonald, Luella Dixon and Grace Boles attended the C. E. convention in Corvallis Saturday and Sunday. . Pro!' Sheak, Mrs. Ida Sheak, Mrs. L. S. Buoy and W. H. Boles were appointed a committee to solicit funds to purchase pulpit, chairs, new carpet and song books for the use of Philomath College chapel. The Easter services Sunday ev: ening by the Junior Endeavor and Philomath Sabbath school was a decided success- The little ones showed that they hud been under careful training and all per formed in a creditable manner the parts assigned them. ' COLLEGE OF PHILOMATH. Elder Stewart started on a trip over his district last week. Geo. McDonald and Guy While, of Philomath -College, made our cChool a pleasant call last- Wednes day. , . . The .Misses Tena "and Winnie Mull, accompanied by Miss Jessie McOullough, spent Sunday at their home, near Bellfountain. The recitations in elocution aud history of philosophy 'were dis missed Friday, to make reoth for the spelling eontest, in 'which H. C. Wyatt won the houors. Robert Clark was a welcome visitor among his fellow students this week. Robert has about re covered from his recent illness and we were ali pleased- to see him with us again. W. Tv-Wyalr, W. O. Wilson and the Misses Ida Wilson, Emma Haines and Winnie Sawyer rep resented our Endeavor society at the County Endeavor Convention. They report an interesting and profitable session. MONROE ITEMS. The Monroe public schools will close two months from last Thurs day. The Monroe roller mills are now running day and night to fill orders already placed for their out put. Prof. E. F. McElroy's orchard of prunes is now in full bloom and an abundance of fruit will be raised there, if one is to judge from appearances. Services were held at the M. E. church South, four miles north of town, on Sunday evening. A program was rendered by the Btu dents of the Sunday school, we are informed. Burt Barnett has lots of grit- at least, he displayed , a , large amount of it ohe week ago last Sunday evening. It was over an aching tooth, and only; those who saw him can describe his nerve. . . . .... W. C. Belknap expects, to be in attendance at the Salem District Epworlh League Convention, also the meeting of the Eugene Dis trict League. Dr. Berry will lec ture in Eugene during the con vention at that place. Easter was properly observed at Simpson's chapel Sunday at 11 a. m. Rev. C. E. Graff conducted the services and $25 missionary money was raised. In the even ing at Monroe, over $20 was sub scribed to the mission fund. Skeep . shearing will be com menced in a few days if this weather keeps up. Although the average farmer is way behind in the rest of his work, he will shear his sheep on time, so - as- to reap 1 113 benefits to be derived on ac count of the present administra tion. -; Dusty is in mourning. That "bob-tailed rooster" is no more and those who are in grief over his ashes are not few. While a living fowl, he was the pride and joy of the school urchins, and it seems that his charms went even further than his mere appearance, fcr one unlucky night he disap peared, and only those who were at the impromptu banquet can testify (as to just how toothsome a dainty he was when served with bread, butter and salt. Of course we were not of the favored in this case, but, perhaps, wish it had been otherwise. However, W. D. K. sits on the top of the deserted coop and wails for his lost treasure. Ethel. DUSTY ITEMS. Mr. Jenkins was out from Lob ster last week oil business. . Aunt Margaret Howell is still very low with heart trouble. Mr. Hoge is improving and his complete recovery is expected.

He was assisted by S. C. Starr's bear dog. There was also a bear among S. W: Hawley's sheep Friday night. The dog should, be taken over to that neighborhood. Last Tuesday some of the la dies of this place spent a very en joyable day at Mrs. W. S. Humph rey's, quitting and sewing carpet rags. The quilt was finished by twelve o'clock, when dinner was served, to which all the ladies did justice. The afternoon was spent in sewing carpet rags and we think all indulged in a "little" in nocent gossip. . Samantha-.; PHEASANT VAUBY. Leslie Fink is working down at Wells Station. r . Geo.

Allen & Woodward. Our Fs and T Our I's are' just as strong as they were fifty years ago, when we have cause to use them. But we have less and less cause to praise ourselves, since others do the praising, and we are more than willing for you to see us through other eyes. This is how we look to S. F. Boyce, whole sale and retail druggist, Dulutli, Minn., who after a quarter of a century of observation writes : "I have sold Ayers Sarsaparilla for more than 25 years, both at wholesale and retail, and have never heard any thing but words of praise from my customers ; not a single complaint has ever reached me. I believe Ayer's Sar saparilla to be the besf1 blood purifier that has been intro duced to the generat public." This, from a man who has sold thousands of dozens cf Ayer's Sarsaparilla, is strong testimony. But it only echoes popular sentiment the world over, which has ' Nothing but words of praise for Ayer's Sarsaparilla." Any doubt about it?
