St. Patricks day passed quietly
in our city, only one alternation
taking place. As usual it was
whisky did it. Al Waugh made
the assertion that Jack Allphin
drank 138 drinks to celebrate the
day. Jack denied it and a scrap
would have ensued if it had not
been that Sam Owen was present.
He told Al he was mistaken and
told also where the mistake was
made in the count and this averted
a bloody encounter and the con
sequent breaking of an old friend
ship. r . .

Pass in a few weeks, and also to

This. gentleman and his estimable

years continuously and feel that a
change of climate for a year will
greatly benefit the health of both,

a necessity if he would benefit his
eyes. Hence the change.
Perry Belmont, president of the
Democratic club of New York City,
and Col. WvJ. Bryan are having a
wordy tilt over which one is the
better democrat. They are as far
apart as the antipodes, yet both
claim Jefferson as their patron
saint. Meantime the world reads
their telegrams and smiles. A re
organization of the democratic party
must soon take place and when it
does, the Bryanites will go with
the Populists and ten years hence
they will be found in some other
party with a new name and a new
hobby. This is their past history
and it will certainly repeat itself.
The board of directors of the
Corvallis school district, at a special
meeting last night, accepted an
offer from a San Francisco invest
ment company of a reduction of 1
percent on the interest rate on out
standing school bonds. The amount
jof the outstanding bonds, not in
cluding one bond of $i,coo, for
payment of which provision has
been made, is $12,000. The offer
comes from the corporation that
now hqlds the bonds, The present
interest rate is 6 per cent., payable
semiannually, and the reduction
makes it 5 percent. The reduction
is the result of an agitation looking
to the refunding of the debt at a
lower rate of interest. The reduc
tion to 5 per cent was made by the
bondholders to prevent loss of the
investment. Stolen.
