Issued ETry Friday Moraine by ftte Gazette Publishing Co. CORVALLIS, OREGON, May ar, 197- JACKSON AND THE MILITIA. The average populist de nounces the militia. In Oregon lie urges the withdrawal of state support for our national guards. The average populist also swears by the memory of Andrew Jack son. In the recent campaign we heard great professions of devo tion to the principles of Jackson, and Bryan was proudly likened to "the hero of New Orleans." Jackson had positive ideas con cerning the militia. He said: "The bulwark of our defense is the national militia, which in the present state of our intelligence and population must render us invincible. As long as our gov ernment is administered for the eood of the people, and is regu lated bv their will ; as loner as it secures to us the rights, of per sons and property, liberty of con science and the press, it will be worth defending; and so loag as it is worth defending a patriotic militia wil cover it with an lm penetrable aegis. Partial inju ries and occasional mortification we may be subjected to, but a million of armed, freemen, pos sessed of the means ot war, - can never be conquered by a foreign foe. To any just system, there for, calculated to strengthen this natural safeguard of the country, I shall cheerfully lend all the aid in my power." TOWNS AND COUNTRY. Monroe Will Celebrate. Some Decidedly Personal Paragraphs. MONROE ITEMS. rye and wheat is The Lincoln Leader is politely informed, for it is a courteous pa per, that the Corvallis newspapers opposed Mr! H. IB. Miller as pres ident of the Oregon Agncultura. Colleee. not because they., dis liked Mr. Miller, but because lmd a- deeo interest in the welfare of the institution. The j Leader is also gently reminded, that the local papers have been quiet on thisi .'subject for some time, because Mr. Miller's -connection with the college will cease in June. He will repre sent this country, if his expecta tions are realized, at Munich, Germany, and the Gazette , has nothing but the kindest . wishes in feeard to his future career. He certainly has many qualities recognized as necessary in a sue cessful diplomat A GREAT deal of irresponsible talk is now heard concerning an alleeed political-combination in connection with the future, maur asrement of the Oregon Agricnl "tural College. These rumors are started by industrious but truth- lacking small fry politicians', and have not the slightest tounaation in factrThe regular June meet ing of the board of regents will doubtless demonstrate that a ma jority of the members are an xious to upbuild this splendidly endowed institution, and their action in regard to the presidency : of the college will, without ques tion. satisfv the true friends of the coUege. ' Those'" people who are so industriously threshing man of straw are-but blinding their own eyes. In a recent speech at Philadel phia, John Wannamaker an nounced his. recent discovery of the republican party's inefficien cy and his belief in the necessity of forming a new party. Brother John is rather a good sort of fel low in some respects, but one can hardly escape wondering why he did not make his discovery before ; the republicans of Pennsylvania smothered his senatorial aspira tions. v of Sun Rulers of The City. The general city - election last Monday was quietly conducted, and alight vote was cast. There was no excitement and the. usual workers were "but little in evi dence. E.

There was no party politics in the election although a remark concerning "black republicans" made votes for certain candidates who happened to be republicans, ' Of the officers chosen, five were republicans and four democrats. One of the latter voted for Bry- ' an. one for Palmer and two for McKinley. - Fall sowa heading out. The Price roal west of town was opened Friday.

The people of Monroe and vicin ity intend to celebrate on the Fourth. Nothing definite has yet been done in the matter but it is presumed that a good program will be rendered here on that occasion. The band boys, of Dusty, will J T- 11 t a ? give a picnic at ceiuoniaine camp ground on Friday, June 18. Don't fail to be out with your best srirl. and if tou haven't one of witnesses who have heard v the noise which a pig will sometimes make when being killed, and later have seen a large pool of blood at, or nearly at the place from whieh this noise came . inis is tne same man who quite recently, with the aid of a daughter, sought to levy blackmail against a well respected young man of Dusty In fact the young woman herself gave the "snap" away by telling a bosom riend what she intended to do with the money "after she got it." Part of it she intended to give to "papa" for helping her get it, and the rest was to be used to enable her to "attend college next year." If we are to judge lrom past ac- tijns, she has a pretty fair "collage education" already along certain Ines. We ascertained the above from reliable men whose word is unquestionable and whose veracity and truthfulness is not to be doub ted, and give the facts as stated so that others may be on the lookout and avoid unpleasantness by giv ing such people a wide berth. - Ethel.

The Harrisburg band gave pieniG last Jfriaay on uie river west of that plac. A good crowd was in attendance and one or two numbers on the program, together with the music rendered by the band, were extraordinarily well received. The day closed with hall eiven bv the band in the C3 r evening. Near Dusty there is - a certain sawmill man whose last initial is Martin. There are also in his 1m mediate vicinity several farmers who own small bands of sheep. hogs, etc., and it not unfrequently occurs that that a sheep or hog suddenly disappears and al about the same time the family . 01 the aforementioned Martin is liberally suDDled with fresh meat. Now the coincidence of these two cir enmst&nces- is strengthened fur ther bv testimony of eye and ear The Blue and the Gray. Both men and women are apt to feel a little blue, when the gray hairs begin to show. It's a very natural feeling. In the normal condition of things gray hairs belong to advanced age. They have no business whitening the head of man or woman, who has not begun to go down the slope of life. "As a matter of fact, the hair turns gray regardless of age, or of life's seasons ; sometimes it is whitened by sickness, but more often from lack of care. When the hair fades or turns gray there's no need to resort to hair dyes. The normal color of the hair is restored and retained by the use of Ayer's Hair Vigor. ayer's Curebook, " a story of cures told by the cured.' - 100 pages, free. J. C. Ayer Co., Lowell, Mass..
