Issoad Every Friday Morning by Cke Gazette Publishing Co. IORVALLIS, OREGON. July S3, i897- OUR SPECIAL. This number of the Corvallis Gazette is not an attempt to over praise Benton county and its institutions. The aim has been.in arranging.for the descrip tive articles, to secure oniy ac curate and reliable information. The aid of both pen and picture has been invoked to make this edition instructive and attractive. The Gazette presents this sriecial number to its readers as a sonvenir of the dawn of better times. May they all share in the blessings that the smiles ot na ture and the good sense of Am erican citizens have established. SPECIAL CONTRIBUTORS. Judge M. h. Pipes, now one of the leading members of the Portland bar, reviews in this is sue the history of the litigation that so vitally concerned the Or egon Agricultural College. The happy separation of the school from church control could not have been accomplished, but for his careful and intelligent com pilation of those matters in the church records that pertained to the school, made In the early his trtrv of the case. Other attor neys figured prominently and ef fectively in the suit, but he laid the foundation that made ulti mate success possible. W. E. Yates, secretary of the board of regents of the college, himself a graduate of the school, writes of its resources and equip ment No one could do it better. Prof -'F. Berchtold. dean of the faculty, explains in a general way the several courses of study that can be followed at the col lege. Prof. Berchtold has been' connected with the institution longer than any other member of the faculty. Prof. J. B. Horner gives a comprehensive description of Benton county, written in his usual happy style. While com- " paratively brief, it is probably the best "write up" of the coun ty ever published. Judge John Burnett, who is himself a part of the history of ..Oregon, and who has had much to do in shaping her political and social destiny, indulges in some verv interesting reminiscences. The story of Corvallis' brief claim to the title. "Capital of Oregon," is well told. - Jos. H. Wilson, who writes of the railroad to Yaquina, is 9. prominent Corvallis lawyer, and a son of Bush Wilson, who for ' thirtv vears was county clerk of Benton county, and who origina ted the idea of a road to the sea. Mr. Jos. Wilson has been con nected with the road in several capacities,' during its construc tion, and is familiar with its his tory. Prof. E. R. Lake, one of the most prominent and successful horticulturists of Oregon shows what Beaton is doing in the mat ter of fruit growing. He is an authority on the subject and speaks plainly. Supt. Geo. W. Denman, who has accomplished splendid re sults in his management of the public schools of the county, de scribes their present status. A young lady who has taken the course in household economy at the Oregon Agricultural Col lege, pleasingly explains its ob jects and benefits. GUATEMALA. The letter of Mr. Pearse pub - lished in this issue, describes the existing conditions in a country -where free silver has been fol lowed by its natural successor, unredeemable paper money. It is true, specie payment in Guate " mala is supposed to be only tem porarily suspended, but the les son is the same. A permanent suspension would certainly not lessen the discount on the "fiat' money. Mr. Pearse clearly shows that the laborer and the farmer are the greatest losers under the op erations of a free silver law. The price of their labor and pro ducts does not rise as the price of the unstable money falls. Ut course Lruatemaia is a mis erable, half civilized, poverty stricken country, while the Uni . ted States is rich, and civilized and powerful; but that is exactly the point A poor monetary system is both a sign and an in strument of degradation. The populist who complains that free silver is being tried only by the poorer nations, is surely related to that Irishman who made the im portant discovery that a navig able river fortunately runs by all large cities. For Sale. On Friday, July 23, at r p. m., E.

Under this heading an infan tile, but promising contemporary, in its second issue, published a three-quarter column editorial laudation. Now, the last thing the Ga zette thinks of doing is to tram ple on a man when he is down. Mr. Miller is "down and out." The Gazette is satisfied and did not propose to give any more time or space to discussing his doings. As to epithets, 4 'active, ' ' "energetic," "liberal minded," "of rare business and executive ability" all these, and as many more as the writer ot tne arncie . . . .. . 1 in question could find iu his dic tionary, might pass unchalleng ed bv us. But, from generali ties unfortunately for him this writer proceeds to particulars. Here we have to draw tne une, ; and we fear, spoil some ot these rosy colored touches. Tnis one-year president, ana one-year regent, arrogates -u himself as his special work, not only the labors of the faculty, but cf the board of regents, past and present Let us see what some of these claims to admira tion amount to. Stop, though. The writer says that Mr. Miller 'inaugurated" all these improve ments and more. "Inaugurate" that is to "introduce or invest in office," according to Webster. ; The "insectiary" "inaugura ted" by him. This is a small glass topped shed, containing some breeding cases for insects, Professor Washburn provided the insect cases and started insect breeding years ago. Professor Cordley continued this work. President Miller . probably sane tioned the expenditure of a few dollars for labor and material on the shed. "He established a station li brary." Begun, however, when the station first came into exis tence in President Arnold's time, seven vears ago. and added to annually ever since and no spe cial additions made last year. "He added essays, orations and oratorical contests to the Eng lish work-." But in this, contin ued the work of development be gun by President Bloss. And yet left a very wide gap for the board of reeents to fill at their recent meeting. "He added appliances for elec trical engineering." Still to be provided, however, as soon as the board of regents can decide how much money is available, and on what scale such appliances can be arranged for. "He secured a plant for cheese making, and provided a library and laboratory for the study of plant and animal bacteria What would Mr. Killen say to this first claim, who has been in stant in season and out of season to have improved the facilities for dairy study and practice. As to the second claim. The library and laboratory in question is now only taking shape after a careful investigation by the board of re gents of the suggestions of the professor, endorsed, it is true, by the president. ' "He organized the college un der the control of a dean, and his choice of a man was accepted by the board." But, why was a "dean" wanted? Mr. Miller was not competent to "control" the college, and had the grace to admit that he was not. So the very competent Professor Berch told was chosen by the board, not selected by the president "He instituted new methods of business, and a practical sys tem of keeping accounts. " With such success so far as the nov elty went that for the first time in the history of the college there was serious difficulty in ad justing and segregating the va- rious accounts. The "system" is that furnished by the TJ. S. au thorities at Washington. "He established the short course for farmers." Yet we seem to recollect two previous "short courses" under President Bloss' auspices. "He held twice as many insti tutes and issued double the amount of bulletin matter with less cost than before." The first proposition may possibly be true, if qualified by saying that he at tended personally twice as many institutes as previous presidents had found compatable with their more onerous duties at Corvallis. The second proposition is based, of course, on the treatise on prunes and prune culture recent ly issued, a valuable compila tion by Professor Hedrick, with a short introduction by President Miller. Outside of this we ven ture seriously to doubt the term "double the amount" - The "cost" of the bulletin matter was governed by the resolution of the board of regents, passed prior to Mr. Miller's presidency. The "cost" of the printing and issuance of the bulletins is direct ly controlled by the board not by the president of the college. "He recommended a complete new course of study and instruc tion, which was adopted by the board and will be carried out by the newly elected president" But the changes from the old to the new course . were the work of the faculty, not the president, and underwent serious modifica tion, as we are informed, after careful examination by the corn- niittee of fjie board of regents, j Then follow a few inorewner alities about about abili ty and discretion. With these' matters i of opinion we have nothing to do: t " r " We trust that with the selec tion of Fresade.it Lratch the era of valuable development of the educational and experimental sides of this most important in stitution will continue and. find extension. . We regret to have been forced to make this examin ation and expose of Mr. Miller's pretensions. It has been made necessary by the attempt to claim for him and for- his one year of office all the good results ot plans of work laid down by former boards of regents, and de veloped and extended by former presidents. The State Agricul tural College of Oregon Was a treat and growing institution o - "... . " before Mr. Miller's name as re gent or as president was heard of in its councils. The best that we can say of him is that he has done better -in his unaccustomed and untried work than many feared would be the case when, year ago, he gained the presi dency by the same slight major ity of one vote by which, in the whirlirir of time, he has now lost it The Newberg Independent has been awe-struck by the intellect ual editorial ability of this pa per, and plainly says so. We are admonished to let our light so shine among men. that they may see our good works, but to imitate the lightning is to take license from liberty, and we wil endeavor to veil the brilliancy of our searchlight, when it flashes in the Independent's direction, That paper is somewhat peevish from the stroke, and complains that the Gazette, having dis covered that the silver cause is dead, inhumanly persists in dis turbing the corpse. It is thus that noble actions are often mis construed. The Gazette has simply called upon the friends of the lost cause, to decently bury the poor inanimate body. Jt, living, threw boquets this way and when respectably interred will be discreetly forgotten. ' Evidences of prosperity's turn are about us. With re the assured security of our monetary system, and the rearrangement of the tariff on protective lines. capital has been satished and seeks investment. Naturally there is a growing demand feu labor. On top of - this there is the as surance of an abundant harvest and good prices, and the gloom of the past few vears enfolds u no more. - SOME COUNTY NEWS. Item Fishers Pull in Whales .

Howard was up from Albany last week, looking after things in general out at the faun. New books have been ordered for use at the song service on Sunday evenings. They will be on hand lor the coming Sunday. Wednesday evening last, Mrs. Welsher entertained a number oi friends at her home. A dainty lunch was served before the guests departed. The little daughter of Mell Evans' was burned quite severely on the hands sometime since, by falling onto a hot stove. The little one is beginning to recover at present. Song service is held every Sun day evening in the M. E. Church. New books have been ordered, and fifteen minutes or more will be devoted at each meeting to the study of the elements of music. Threshing will begin about Aug. 1st. The farmers are rushed this year more than common, si nee haying and binding comes right togsther on aceount of the late rains.

Pfouts. , Con sequently Mr. Maude has decided to sell his farm implements and household effects at public sale on July 23rd. At the same time and place, A.. Wi I helm and sons will sell 30 heifd of horses to the high est bidder. 'Monroe is to have a Sanitari um." 'Such is the statement made byiDf.SBand, the Monroe druggist. Continuing on this : subject the doctor said: . "I bought a tract of land in Eugene, at a fine cost or $ 2U,uuu when 1 came from I he east recently, and had expected to erect a modern invalid's home pon it, and have5 my patients where they could receive proper food, care and nursing. When the subject was talked of among Eugene's physicians they were jealous, in fact I hey seemed to think tlie new enterprise would injure their business. Having thus no encouragement to go into such tlnng in their town I concluded to look up a more suitable loca tion. And although this is not on a railroad, it is a healthful place, and Ishall build somewhere near here." It is to be hoped t In-. t such an institution will be ocated here, and those who have seen the usefulness of such homes will be only too glad to help such a cause along. No services will be held in the M. E. Church at Monroe next Sunday morning on account of the quarterly meeting of Monroe and Junction (Jity circuit whien is to be held in the new church in Junction City on that day.- The following taken from the Junction City Times may be of interest to many Gazette readers: "Jmday, 23. 8 p. m. address Rev.

Our good neighbor, Mrs. Kelly, had the misfortune to fall Saturday evening and hurt her foot so bad ly as to render walking one of the impracticables. We hope she will soon be around again. The bridge across Thornton Lake is finished as far as the bridge proper is concerned, -but the ap proaches . wait on some one. Meanwhile the traveling public are sorely put out as none but foot passengers can cross, and they with difficulty. The road north from the bridge as far as the foot of the hill is nicely graded with rock from the. quarry, with a good layer of gravel on top of that, which will be a boon to many next winter. Some of the road is graveled even beyond the foot of the hill. Alma. John Griffin, of Zanzesville, O., says: "I never lived a day for thirty years with out suffering agony, until a box of De Wiit's Witch Hazel Salve enred my piles."
