FRIDAY, NOVKMBER 4, 1897. The Itauk. Newspaper vindictiveness was never more openly displfiyed than in a publication here last week through the medium of a hired cor respondent. After the usual num ber of misstatements about the hank here he winds up by saying that the Portland banks are assess ed at $1.25 per share, and leaves the inference that this means per share of $100, but he overreached himself for everyone knows better than that. The truth of the matter is that he refers to the First Nation- ail Bank of Portland, which has a pud-up capital of $500,000 and a surplus of over $600,000. (VVe have not the exact figures.) It is assessed $1.25 on its capital and not at all on its surplus, which makes its assessment about 55 cents on the dollar, pn its capital. If the correspondent knew what he was writing about he knew this. The newspaper that published it must have known that it was false. The essence of lying is deception, and a lie may be told by silence. If the object of these attacks is to hold up the bank, why don't you set a sun and do it like a man ? After all this talk the truth remains that the First National Bank of Coavallis is paying more tax now on its capital and surplus than any other bank in the state. The stat utes say that "taxation on all prop erty shall be equal and uniform," and again that "all property shall be assessed in equal and ratable proportions,'' and yet the First Na ' lional Bank is assessed higher than any property in Benton county. The contention of the bank here is not that it is assessed too high, but if it is to b assessed in its cash value, it wants other property to be assessed in like manner, and this is the law. It wants to be assessed as other "people are assessed, just this and nothing more, and surely there is nothing unfair about this. A prominent democrat said in our hearing this week that there were a dozen men in Benton county worth more than M. S. Woodcock and yet "Woodcock paid twice as much tax as any of thein. If this is true can it be justified on any ground of fair play? We are contending for what we know to be right, and we don't care whether it is a banker or a beg gar, if he is wrong we will condemn him, but if we think he is wronged we will defend him. McKinley. The sale of the Union Pacific to a syndicate for the full amount of the government claims against it both principal and interest is en tirely due to the successful manage ment of the McKinley administra tion. Now the Central Pacific has to be dealt with, but with this set tlement as a precedent, there is little doubt that it too will be set tled in a satisfactory way. Rail road lobbyist who have labored to prevent a settlement ot Union Pa cific affairs while they lined their pockets have been utterly defeated, and the road placed in the hands of people who will conduct it properly. What a clean healthy showing the McKinley government is making, every promise it made has been redeemed so far as time has been permitted for it. Our affair's with foreign powers are being conducted with dignity and success. The sil ver commistion is an exception, but that was a promise made to a fac tion at home, with no hope of suc cess. Our affairs at home are faft assuming the genuine stability that befits a great nation, and if the future of McKinley may be judged by the past he will rule the most prosperous people ever ruled by a president or anj'one else. Edward O. Wolcott and General Jackson Payne members of the monetary commission or in other words our free silver missionaries to Europe having utierly failed in their efforts to Bryanize that coun try, are on their way home on the steamship Campania. All of the candidates recom mended by the Oregon delegation have so far been appointed by the President. Our Country. In ihe July Ladies' Home Jour nal is the following facts about the United States. The area of the United States wiUi Alaska is 3,(502, 990 square miles equal to the area of all Europe with Italy and Tur key excepted. Texas its largest state is two hundred and twelve times the size of - Rhode Island. Texas might invite every man wo man and child now living in the world to settle within its territory, offering each individual a plot of ground fifty by one hundred feet. The state would not be reallv crowded, for each individual would 7 If - . - nave iuui uuira wic ejjciuc ictB.cn uy each person in New York City. England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Italy aud Portugal could be trans planted to Texas and still there would be a good sized promenade where curious Americans ould walk while studying this bit of Europe, Three of the cattle ran ches of Texas cover as much terri tarv as the Sandwich Islands. A new kind of counterfeiting has cammenced and the wonder is that it has not been done before. The 3ilver in our dollar is worth less than forty cents so that a good profit can be made by making counter feit dollars of genuine silver, the following is from a Washington dis patch to the Oregonian : "Counter feit dollars of greater weight and fineness than those turned out from- Uncle Sam's mint are the latest in the counterfeiter's art. For the last week St Louis bank tellers have been accepting the counter feits in question without hesitation. It was when they reached the St. Louis su treasury that their spuri ous character was detected. United States Treasurer Small sent one to the mint for assay. According to Colonel Small, the coin weighs 13J grains more than the genuine, which weighs 412 grains. ls fine ness is 94 per cent, while that of the genuine is but 90 per cent." Henry George 'is dead, he died as he had always expressed a wish to die; suddenly and fighting for what he conceived to be right. He was in many respects a remarkable man with a firm grasp on himself. In the Comstock boom days in Cali fornia when everybody was gamb ling, he never gambled, when every body was drinking he never drank. He worked hard in those days and spent his leisure time in writing and study, and so brought out the best there was in him. His pecu liar hobby of single tax he believed in firmly. It may live or may die now that its great apostle is dead, but the nane of Henry George will live and it is high up among the nation's honest men. Oregon has an appropriation ot $20,000 for public land surveys next year, and settlers on nnsur veyed townships should write to the U. S. Surveyor General at Prot land for blank applications, if they want the land surveyed. Tne blanks will cost you nothing and from what we know of the surveyor general and his chief clerk, you will get all the information you want from them cheerfully and without cost. The wheat and flour shipments from Portland during the months of September and October exceed anything of the kind in its history. The total cash value of those ship ments for September was $1,278,- 875 and for October it was $1,751,- 165. Yaquina Bay. The papers throughout the valley generally are doing good work urg ing upon our delegation the neces sity of action in the Yaquina bay improvement matter. But some thing more than this, should be done. Our Senator and Congress men, are willing to do all they can for us in the matter, and in a recent conversation with both congressmen we were impressed with the difficul ties by which the matter is beset. Boards of trade in the towns of the valley should meet and pass reso lutions; mass meetings, if possible, should be held and everything pos sible done to strengthen the hands of our representatives The farmers and merchants of the valley are facing the problem of their lives, for if this appropriation fails, it may be years before the matter is taken up again and in the mean time their grain market will be in the hands of the Portland Mills Co. jand their freight will be donbled. We wish we could make every far mer and merchant in the valley feel what we know will happen if this appropriation fails. A FRIEND. Jack was 10 years oM, one of seven children and his parents were poor. One night the father came home from town with news that the biggest merch ant in town wanted Jack to work ia his store. It was a large department store, wholesale and retail, and every boy in town would have gladly accepted the offer, so Jack's firther was proud and his mother happy, while his brothers and sisters looked on liim w ith a kind of awe. This may ail seem trifling but it was big significance for Jack. It was full of touching events too, but as this only aims to relate one of them we will hurry past them all and find Jack after his first day in the store, standing in his neat litl? d.oom over the store after having I Tint ir. iUa tvtrtcf ntrott f ful Atr -vf i:frt 1 puuiu HIV. IJIUDt, V,l.lll.lUl UO Ul 11 AC jje j)a(j neyer bee a day away from home before and this was to be his first night away, and remember he was only a child. He opened the window and looked off across the roofs and through the church, spires glistening in the moonlight in the direction of the cottasre that contained everything and everyone he loved. His little brother bed fellow would sleep alone tonight for tne first time in his life, and lie knew he was I thinking of him ; his gentle mother and loving sister he knew were thinking of him ; and he realized too that lie had left childhood and boyhood forever. fc!o there was a lump in. ins throat ana a great sob in his heart which he bravely kept down as he turned from the window. He took off his shoes" and then as lie had done before every ni,jht of his life, he knelt down by the bed-side to say bis little prayer, and somehow that night Jack felt a little nearer to God than he ever was before. While he was still on his knees lie heard footsteps approaching the door; they stopped for a minute, then the knob was turned and the door partially opened. Jack never stirred, but finished his prayer in some way, got up, and there with a lamp in his hand, stood a tall, gray bearded man whom Jack had not seen before. "You are the new boy," he said as he approached Jack and put his hand on his shoulder. "Yes sir," said Jack. "Well my boy, I was passing and seeing your light I was afraid you had gone to bed and lett it burning so I opened your door, and I am very glad I- did. I see you have had the right training, and my boy, never, never forget your God. He is the one triend who is always near, and let nothing ever prevent you from praying at least every night and morn ing." Much more he said in that kindly strain, and his gentle manner and kindly voice opened up the floodgates in little Jack's heart, 'till his tears fell like rain. The man was the head book-keeper ; bis name was Cameron, and he had been a professor in a Scotch university. He was a bachelor and .lived in the store and that night he made a compact with Jack which he kept religiously till Jack 12 years later followed him to his grave, with as genuine sorrow as he ever felt in his life. All his education, every good principle, and.' vastly more than he could ever tell, Jack owed to that noble Scotchman. Do you think that was an accident? No! things with such mo mentuous results don't happen by acci dent. The foundry people desire to say that Wednesdays and Saturdays are the special days set apart for sharpening plowshares.

Your attention is again called to the law, which requires all teachers holding state diplomas or state certificates to have tiie same registered in the Supt's office. A certificate of either the above class is not valid in this county, unless it bears the Supt's stamp of registration. Very Truly, G. AV. Denman, Sup't of Benton Co. The eleotions in the East passed off quietly and the results are much as was anticipated. Greater New York was given over to the Tammany democrats, and the state went democratic by 50,000. Ohio is very close but the republican state ticket is elected and a majority of the legislature which insures a republican senator. Maryland is in doubt with the chances in favor of the republicans. Towa, Massa chusetts and New Jersey have gone republican and Nebraska has been handed over to the populists. Ken tucky and Virginia are democratic Every communication from Alas ka, from all kinds of people, and from all parts of the country, con firm the news of the extraordinary richness of that place. It is har4 to guess what its population will be in a year.; probably 250,000. The Portland Bank clearings f ;r 1897 exceed those of 18 -f 1,166,-712. SILETZ. .

Reautiful, weather, everyone busy. There will be a revival service com menced in the old church cn Thankrgiv mg. A large audience was in attendence at the morning service last Sunday at the new church. Mrs. M,-Vicker, president of the Junior C. E. gave a candy pull to the Juniors on last Friday evening. All had a pleasant time Our school is progressing finely. The scholars rendered a short program last Friday of declamation and oration and all did well. The funeral of Ed. Schiver, of Cherry Grove, was held at the cemetery last Sat urday at 10 o'clock. There was a large attendence, Rev. McVicker conducted the services. The funeral of Ed. Schiver was con nected with a sad accident. On last Thursday he was assisting to move a logging donkey down to the Luckimute to pull in logs they had in front of the Pee Dee school house and having lengthened out the cable and planted the pole and lasienea me caDie to it, another man assisting Ed. lo hold the pole, in some manner they could not hold the pole and it broke away from them throwing Ed. about sixty-fivefeet killing him instantly. Surely the proverb is true, 'In the midst of life we are in death." Ed. was twenty seven years old and leaves a ctippled mother, one brother and two sisters. VVe are sorry to hear of the death of Mrs. R. F. Mathany. Gilbert Mason, of Shot Pouch, was in our valley on Monday last. The new store at Blodget is completed and adds considerable to the appearance of the place. There is a hall above the main part of the building. Miss Rena Norton went to Philomath to enter school at the Philomath college. Divine service on Saturday evening Nov. 13th at the Blodgett school house by Rev. T. T. Vincent. Miss Nellie Gormley closed her school and has since gone to Monmoth to enter the Normal. She has taught four and one-half months in the Mountain Top school with good results. Mr. RaLton, of Yamhill, a very promi nent dealer in stock of all kinds, was through heie Monday. He received a large number of cattle at the King's Val ley scales on Monday and Tuesday. There is considerable excitement over the gold mine, at Little Elk. Several men from here went over there last week and report a large number of claims taken. There are some hopes that it will extend in this direction. To Trade For Corvallis property, house and four tots in Waldport. Will pay difference in cash. Inquire through P. O.

The fact is now so generally admitted it needs no argument to convince those upon whom the duty rests, that life insurance is the best protection for a man's family, his estate ar.d his old age. The question with most men is, what form of policy will best discharge the duty and in what company to place so sacred a trust. The Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance company otters to persons needing insur ance an insurance policy of the most definite character perfectly adapted to all legitimate wants, conceived and admin istered in perfect equality, guarded by ample and undoubted security, at the lowest cost that economy and" good man agement can accomplish consistently with absolute and perptual safety. A policy which after two "or three prem iums paid becomes by its own terms and without surrender, fully paid up for an amount each year stated in printed table upon the policy. A policy which, at the end of 10. 15, 20. 25, 30, 35, etc., years, may be surrendered for a cash sum stated in a table printed in the policy. A policy participating in the surplus earned which there are no stockholders to share, so that each member's insurance costs him only just what it costs the com pany. A record of fifty-one years of business economically, conservatively and success fully managed. Its strength and stability are unquestioned, its reputation unsullied, the care and economy with which its business is managed and the resulting benefits to its members unsurpassed. It invites investigation. Since organizatiou in 1846 the Connecticut Mutual Received in premiums 192,111,805 65 Returned to policy holders or their represen tatives: For death losses and endowments 102,683,616 37 For surrendered policies 23.803,729 22 ror ujviuenus &6,966,763 64 Total returned to nolicv holders i82.4ri4.inQ s necervea irom policy holders in excess of amount returned 9,657.695 72 Received from interest, rent, etc.. 84,.t32,"!i3 65 jixpeuses oi management si taxes.
