THE SOUTHERN SECTION.
Personal and General Notes
From a Rich Portion of Ben
ten County.
Ed. Gazettb: Having bad occasion
to visit on business the northeastern part
of the county during the last week, the
opportunity was improved to talk with
quite a number of the citizens of that lo
cality, while taking a cursory view of
the grain fields, orchards and gardens of
that locality.
To be frank, this region has almost
been a "terra incognito" to the people
residing in other parts of Benton county.
Among the reasons for this is that the
territory lies contagious to Albany, where
most of its people get their mail and
have done in years past most of their
trading. Another reason is, our mer
chants have not made the effort to be
come acquainted with and secure by per
solicitation the traie of these people.
Still another reason is given by those
who live there, which is that in county
affairs they have been neglected and
their wants and needs overlooked or dis
regarded, which has had a tendency to
estrange those who, being citizens of
our county, do not feel the interest or in
clination to become a part and parcel ef
the body politic that they naturally oth
erwise would, had a different course been
taken in the past
How true these statements are, the
writer has'.no means of knowing, but the
statements are made by very reliable peo
ple, who would not be likely to make
any statemement that they did net be
lieve to be true.
Several parties were working on the
road between Granger and Albany and
on the road leading from Albany back
through the hills to the Oak Grove
neighborhood and the complaint was
.general among them that our county
court would not make any appropriations
to aid them in making good roads and
bridges, citing one instance in particu
lar, when our county court refused to
make any appropriations to make the ap
proach to the bridge across the Willam
ette at Albany and it was done at consid
erable expense to the taxpayers by dona
tions of work.
These people pay their taxes ungrum
blingly and are loyal citizens of Benton
county and if there has been any neg
lect on the part" of the county court, it
ought to be at once remedied not by
lavish and useless expenditures of public
money, for economy is the watchword
along all lines of endeavor, but in a just
and equitable manner. The t writer has
confidence in our county court and be
lieves it is composed of honorable men,
who intend to look after the public busi
ness in a eareful and intelligent manner
and will not consider these people
"chrenic kickers" because they dare to
mention what to them seems an injus
tice. One other thing was mentioned
by several well-informed and public-spirited
citizens of the locality referred to,
which was that there is too much truth
in the criticism that in politics Corvallis
has iu the past demanded and taken the
lion's share of the officers or dictated
who should, be nominated -in opposition
to the wishes of those living in the rural
districts. In short, these people feel that
the officers should be better distributed,
that extravagances should be cut off, sal
aries reduced and a general scaling down
entered upon and strictly adhered to.
' The action of the county court in caus
ing the officers' books to be experted and
shortages made good wa warmly com
mended. It seems to be the desire of
these people to become better acquainted
with the different parts of the county,
to get in touch with all its varied inter
ests and to intelligently uphold its insti
tutions and loyally maintain its dignity
and standing among the counties of the
state.
Many kindly expressions were heard
in favor of our merchants and business
people and a lively interest was manifest
ed in the work of the Agriculture) Col
lege and Experiment Station located
here. It is believed by the writer of this,
that much trade could be divert
ed toward Corvallis from this part of the
county if our business people made the
proper effort It is, at least, worth try
ing for.
The country along the Albany road,
about- Fairmount, opposite Albany,
around Oak Grove, Wells and all the ter
ritory lying east and north of Wells, that
was visited, is peopled by an intelligent,
moral, frugal and industrious class, rank
ing easily among the best of the coun
ty. ;
Altogether, the trip was very enjoyable
and conducive of a better knowledge of
the want, aims and objects of this esti
mable class of citizens.
Among the many persons met by the
writer were Prof. -Lake, manager, and
Mark Brownson, foreman, of the big
prune orchard at Granger, comprising
160 acres of Italian prunes. This or
chard, Under the skillful treatment of
these gentlemen is doing finely. The
ground is in good condition, the trees
are in good condition and the borers
have been eradicated.
. Levi Joy, postmaster at Granger, "Is
still at the old stand, happy in the
knowledge of duty faithfully discharged.
Geo. W. Young lives on 100- acres of
the Walden farm. It is all under culti
vation and is a good place for hops, fruit
and grain. Not being a farmer, Mr.
Young wants to sell.
Anton Luther aud Mr. Monosmith oc
cupy part of the old Walden place.
They have good crops and are happy,
Julius Miller, livijg on the old Ken
nedy farm, is all right - He has 32 head
of Colswool sheep that will shear not less
than 10 pounds of wool each.
I met a number of men working en
the Rainwater grade, under the intelli
gent direction of A. McKechnie, road
supervisor of Dist No. 48. Mc. is an
old railroad man of thirty years experi
ence and knows just how to make a road
and he does not shirk the work, either.
He was pretty wet with perspiration, as
were also his men and teams. All of the
men gave Mc. credit for being the best
supervisor ever appointed in the district.
Among those working with him I noticed
J. B. Chitwood, who, by the way, has a
fine place a littly north of the road. His
home is in a very sightly place, overlook
ing the river, valley and mountain scen
ery, grand and beaHtiful, and has a view
of five railroad tracks crossing the val
ley. He has 35 acres in hops, all in fine
condition, with hop houses so located oa
the side of the hill that by driving on
the upper side, the hops are rolled into
the dryer and keep on going down hill
and come out on the lower side, dried
and baled. He also has some fine Jersey
cattle, several of which are registered
in the "American Herd Book." This
gentleman and his estimable wife live
in comfort and entertain ye traveller in a
hospitable manner.'
Henry Hector, Charley Voss, Wm.
Rainwater, - Fred Stahl, who has two
acres in melons, besides lots of other
vegetables and fruit on his little farm
near the Albany bridge, Will Abram.
Pres. Walton, Arthur Helms, Mr. Shew,
and several others whose names I do not
now recall, were working with Mc. The
road bed was being graded and covered
with about ten inches of gravel which
will make a roadbed hitherto almost im
passible, safe and solid. .
Among the gardeners aud fruitgrowers
in the vicinity of Fairmount, I met Ja
cob Shew, who has in ten acres of corn
and says he Vaised a fine lot last year and
expects an equally good crop this year.
W. B. Shannon, the king of rhubarb
growers, Mrs. E. J. Phillips, engaged in
gardening and fruit growing, Air. Pea
cock. Mr. Kelly, A. A, Hawley and Mr.
Wygant, whose places were all neat and
showed evidences of thrift and careful
and intelligent effort All these people
are highly favored in locality, the Wil
lamette river each winter overflowing its
banks and with the backwater sets over
these places, leaving a fine, rich sedi
ment, enriching the soil without effort on
the part of the owners.
On the road runxin from Albany to
Oak Grove. I found a number of men at
work on the road and doing a gooa
job under the direction of Louis Weutz,
road supervisor, whose methods were ap- j
proved by his men, anion whom were ;
T. B. Williamson, A. Swart Mr. Thomas
and a number of others. Near by, ou a
little farm., was Mr.- Chas. P. Thomas
! at work with horse and cultivator among
his potatoes.
In the vicinity of Oak Grove I met
with an old G. A. R- man, John M.
Comacklin, living on va 13-acre fruit
ranch, all planted to prunes, apples, pears
and grapes, J. F. Mayberry, engaged in
fruit raising aud gardening, A. L. Coop
er, growing fruit and vegetables, and H.
J. Moore, who has 55 acres in fruit and
nut-bearing trees, consisting of apples,
pears, cherries, small fruits, almouds,
pecans, chestnuts and French walnuts,
commercially known as English walnut".
Part of this orchard has been set three
years, a part two 2 years and a part one
year, and is well cultivated and pruned.
I also met in this neighborhood, R. W.
Williamson, who has 15 acres in hops,
all in excellent shape, and W. G. Wil
liamson, a young man with 100 acres of
good land, 60 of which are in grain. He
is building a house and a little bird hint
ed to me that ere long he would mate
with some fair daughter of Eve fand be
gin life with her oa his beautiful farm.
Over night we were entertained by
Senator - Garter and his estimable wife.
It is a pleasure to meet this-couple of pi
oneers, whose life for fifty years has been
speut together on the old home place a
couple of miles east of Wells. Here
they have toiled side by side, raised a
family of intelligent and moral children,
who are all married happily and now
they live alone. A competency has been
secured by frugality and the old farm is
still retained by them. . They owe no
one a dollar and are spending their de
clining years ia plenty, respected and
loved by all. May no shadow cross their
threshold! May they live many years,
an example of devotion to each other,
and finally rest in peace in the little
cemetery ou their farm, near the church
they love,' where the last rays of day's
departing glories gild ' the. scene and
paint a picture of rural beauty seldom
equaled. "2
In this vicinity is the farm of Mr.
Pagenkopf, a sturdy German tiller of
the soiler, whose home is one of culture
and is made cheerful by his charming
daughters, who are successful teachers in
the public schools.- One of the daugh
ters was met at Mr. Temlinson's, where
the writer was entertained by several well
executed selections on the piano by this
young lady, who was on her way by
wheel to Buena Vista to give music les
sons. (To be continued next week.)

Card of Thanks.
I take this opportunity to extend
to the citizens of Corvallis my
heartfelt 1 hanks for the cordial
support trj veil me in the city elec
tion on Monday last.. It, shall be
my endeavor to so fulfill the
duties imposed upon me so as to
merit the support I have received,
and to give none cause' to regret
my election. It would be egotism
to attribute my success to my own
merits or to anv demerits of the
lefeated candidate, and this but
ncreases my debt of gratitude to
my supporters. My menus did
obly, and I can never forget
1 hem. My enemies too contri
buted involuntarily to my triumph
:'iid vindication. To none of
iliese am I more indebted than to
.Mr. B. F. Irvine, the editor of the
Corvallis Times. His unprovoked
;ind scurrilous attack did more to
1 waken the people to an under
standing of bis real opposition to
ne than anything he could have
done. It showed' his grievance
was a purely personal one, He
i cuses me ot calling him a
Meat her head,'' and seems to have
I nought the people should have
punished me for it. I do not re
member to i ave made the remark.
Experience has taught me that it
s sometimes best not to publish
the truth. It appears the people
tl ought the remark, if made at all,
was justifiable and in self defense.
nut it be continues to betray a
lack of wit and display a surplus
of spleen, he will prove to the
satisfaction of every one that the
remark he complains of, if made
at all, was without malice and
could not fairly be censured.
