WAS IT GRATIS?
For the past month the Times
has made every effort to make po
litical capital out of the fact that
Clerk Watters has employed no
extra deputy to assist in the regis
tration of voters. It has told in
its own yivid style, how Mr. Wat
ters and his deputy, have-worked
far into the night to accomplish
this work, and has given out the
impression, by insinuation and
direct assertion, that Mr. Wat
ters has. been doing this work
personally in order to save the
taxpayers of Benton county the
expense of having a deputy per
form the work; that Mr. Watters
was registering the voters of
Benton county gratis, and Mr.
Watters has permitted that im
pression to prevail.
In its last issue the Times
says: "Watters has not re
ceived a cent for registering
voters." Why did it not add,
No one engaged in registering
voters in Benton county has re
ceived a cent for this service.
This would have been true.
The law provides that a fee of
ten cents shall be allowed no
taries for each name registered
by them and voted. Should a
party register and not vote, the
notary receives no fee, therefore,
payment for this service cannot
be made until after election,
when the records will show who
voted and what each notary is
entitled to. Now, Mr. Watters
stands in the same position as
the various notaries who have
done this work. We have Coun
ty Judge Woodward for authori
ty, that it is the understanding
of the court that Mr. Watters is
to be compensated for the work
of registering in the same man
ner as the various notaries.
This understanding was arrived
at when Mr. Watters asked the
court for a deputy to assist in the
work of registration. He was
denied a deputy, but the under
standing was that he was to re
ceive ten cents for each name
registered by him where the
party voted. The court expects
Mr. Watters to put in a bill for
this work, which will be allowed.
Now, it may be that the court
is laboring under a misappre
hension on the question. It may
be that Mr. Watters believes the
understanding between himself
and the court to be that he is to
receive nothing for his work in
registering voters. It may be,
as the Times would have the
taxpayers of Benton infer, that
Mr. Watters saved them the
expense of this work : We hope
this is true, for it will mean a
a saving of $100 to 150 to the
county.
There is one way to settle the
question, however. Mr. Watters
may make affidavit that he will
ask no compensation from the
county for either himself or
his deputy for registering vot
ers and publish- the same in
the Times. All doubt in this
matter will then be removed.
Tf MV rrpz tint rln fliic
the taxpayers have a right to be-
lieve that they will have to pay
Mr. Watters and his deputy for
the work done in registering
voters.
Another point, too, which
must not be overlooked, is that
Mr. Watters and his deputy took
time from their regular duties
for which they receive a salary,
to do some of this work, and were
therefore receiving double pay.
For several years the demo
cratic party managers in this
county have traded every other
candidate on their ticket for votes
to enable them to elect their clerk
and sheriff. The same tactics
are being prepared by them for
operation in the present election.
Only a few days ago one near to
the party managers approached
a republican offering to vote for
a certain republican candidate
providing that the republican so
approached would vote for the
democratic clerk. The republi
can who allows himself to be so
humbugged by the political
jockey will practically lose his
vote. The political vote jockey
approaches possibly a dozen or
twenty voters on the other side
and offers to vote their way pro
viding that they will vote for a
certain man whom he names,
and thus if the pledge is kept by
all he perhaps gets twenty of
the other side to vote for his clerk
while he gives one vote to a re
publican. Republicans certainly
must have better judgment than
to be drawn -into such traps.
Under this and similar tactics
the democrats have been able to
elect sheriff and clerk with re
publican voters. For some time
they have offered to trade off pop
ulist nominees on the fusion
ticket to get republicans to vote
for democrats.
Miles Starr, the republican
nominee for treasurer of Benton
county, was born in Diamond
Springs, Calif., and at an early
age his parents came to this
state. His boyhood davs were
passed at different points through
out the Willamette valley.
When he had arrived at early
manhood he settled in this coun
ty, and has resided here for the
past 24 years. The greater part
of his life has been devoted to
general farming and the dairy
business', and up to last summer
he was ever active in this line.
But he was the victim of a sad
accident during haying season
and received a bad fall which
has left him a cripple and ren
dered him 'unable to follow his
life's work. He is honest, thor
oughly qualified for the office for
which he is nominated, and in
view of his past there is no room
for doubt as to his energy when
there is anything to be done.
Let all republicans cast a straight
vote for the man they have nomi
nated, for lie is worthy in every
sense of their support
Casper Zierolf, candidate fr
county commissioner on the re
publican ticket, resides about
five miles north of Monroe, on
his fine farm, where for over 25
years he has enjoyed the happy
distinction of being a prosperous
and successful farmer, enjoying
peace and plenty accumulated
under his careful and conserva
tive management of his own
affairs. He has been a life-long
republican of unswerving integ
rity and highly respected by all
his neighbors and acquaintances
His careful and conservative
methods in the management of
his own affairs, indicates beyond
question that he will make a
first class officer of the county
court to guard and assist in pro
tecting the counties business.
Mr. Zierolf will make a first class
county commissioner.
All told the Gellatly family in
cluding J. A Gellatly, present
candidate for county clerk, since
their twenty-eight years resi
dence in Benton county have
paid taxes into the county treas
ury $4269.02, as shown by the
tax-rolls. J. A. Gellatly yet
owns his fine farm near Philo
math. Three fine farms are also
owned by others of the family.
The name of Gellatly has always
been famed for honesty, integ
rity, fair dealing, free from all
dissembling or sharp practice.
Johnny is peculiarly fitted by
natural qualities and education
to make one of the best county
clerks which Oregon has ever
had. The voters will not per
mit his opposition to throw sand
in their eyes on this important
subject when going to vote.
A MATTER OF COMPARISON.
The strongest thing urged
and in fact the only thing urged
in Mr. Watters' behalf for re
election is that he has been an
obliging and economical officer.
When either quality is mentioned
a comparison
is implied. Com
pared with some other standard
Mr. Watters is obliging and eco
nomical. Compare then Mr.
Watters and Gellatly. All who
have ever had business dealings
with either man will say frankly
that each is equally anxious to
accommodate and oblige. On
this point there is no choice be
tween them.
Let us consider the other ques
tion, however. The opportunity
is excellent. Mr. Watters has
been recorder of Benton county,
and Mr. Gellatly has held the
same position. Mr. Watters was
the first recorder elected to this
office after it was established.
After entering upon his duties as
recorder he established the prece
dent of having a deputy for that
officer at $20 per month, to be
paid by the county. In the court
records for the May term, 1895,
we find these words: "At this
time Virgil E. Waters, county
recorder cf Benton county, Ore
gon, reported to the court that he
had appointed W. A. Buchanan
as his regular deputy; and that a
deputy was necessary to carry on
the said office properly and per
form the duties thereof; and that
the said W. A. Buchanan had
agreed to perform .the duties of
dermtv recorder for the sum of
twenty dollars a month." The
court ordered that there be al
lowed for deputy hire for the said
county recorder the sum of twen
ty dollars per month in addition
to the salary fixed by law for the
said recorder. This order was
made at the regular July term of
the court for 1894, but "through
inadvertance was not entered in
the journal of the court, and on
motion of the said recorder it is
entered now for then and it is to
have the force of a nunc pro tunc
order." Here was Mr. Watters'
idea of economy, a deputy at
$20 per month at the expense of
the taxpayer.
During Mr. Gellatly' s term as
recorder the county has not been
to one cent of expense for deputy
hire for him. He has had a dep
uty, it is true, but he has paid
for that deputy OUT OF HIS
OWN POCKET. Here is a
saving of at least $240 a year to
the taxpayers. Mr. Gellatly re
ceives the same salary that Mr.
Watters did; as much, if not
more work has been done during
Mr. Gellatly' s term, and has been
done at least as well. We do not
hesitate to say that Mr. Gellatly
will demonstrate to the people of
Benton county that he will be as
courteous and economical in the
clerk's office as he has been in
the recorder's office.
Every voter in Benton county
who has the interests of Oregon at
heart will cast a vote for Thomas
H. Tongue for congress. Every
attack upon his record in congress
has been met and dispelled. He
is recognized in Washington as
one of the most" able members of
the house, and he occupies a place
on many important committees.
including that of the rivers and
harbors. He has the respect and
esteem of his associates and the
confidence of the administration.
The entire country is looking to
Oregon for her verdict on the
great political issues of the hour,
and Mr. Tongue's majority will
be taken as an evidence ot the de
sires of the people of this district
in regard to these issues.
There is our old friend, J. B.
Irvine, republican candidate for
coroner, whose jolly, rollicking,
friendly and genial qualities ren
ders him peculiarly fitting to
relieve the moaotony and solem
nity of so solemn a profession.
If the expected corpse had not
quite passed away the tendency
of friend Irvine's kind genial
disposition wonld tend to enthuse
the last moments of the departed
with a few moments longer of
life. He is peculiarly and well
calculated to do honor to this im
portant office.
The Eugene Guard has been
figuring again. It says: "Dr.
Daly alone lost not less than
$30,000 worth of property, with
out any insurance." (Dr. Daly
is the union candidate for con
gressman in this district. Ed.
Guard. ) Now, Dr. Daly gave in
his property to the Lakeview as
sessor at only $1,800, and that
official only raised the assessment
to $7, 800. Does the Guard wish
to insinuate that Dr. Daly tried
to defraud his own city in the
matter of taxes?

The Times says the republi
cans took up a collection to hire
the band to play for Populist
Howard "and thus the republi
can party falls into the alabaster
arms of the middle-of-the-roaders
in love-lit and lip-locked
fusion." When Populist Harry
Tracy spoke in Corvallis last
week Mc. and the entire demo
cratic machine performed the
hardest two hours' work they
have done in years, in an attempt
to raise $10 to hire the band.
The result of their efforts was
numerous "promises to pay,"
much fume and vapor by the
lawyer, amusement for the pub
lic, and no band.
G. H. Waggoner, republican
candidate for county surveyor,
resides on the old homestead two
miles west of Monroe, son of
Thomas Waggoner for 25 years
a resident there. He has been
born and reared on this farm,
but educated and competent for
thesurveyorship. He is a young
man of industrious habits, and
will make a good county sur
veyor. A Genuine Populist.
Those who heard the address
of ex-Congressman Howard, the
brilliant populist orator, at the
court house last Tuesday evening,
pronounce it the ablest exposi
tion of the principles of populism
ever heard in this city, and Mr.
Howard the peer-of any orator
they have heard in years. To
say the least his address is ex
haustive and absorbing, and he
has remarkable forensic ability
He does not espouse republican
ism, nor does he advocate in any
measure, whatever, fusion with
tne repuDiicau party. Jtie op
poses fusion with the democratic
party, and holds that there is not
a single basis for fusiort between
the democrats and populists
Mr. Howard takes up each ot
the issues made by the democrats
in the present campaign and
holds that it is immaterial to the
populists whether democrats or
republicans win, the result being
no nearer accomplishment of
true populism in the triumph of
one than of the other. "You
democrats out here censure us
because we oppose fusion," said
he, ' 'and say we are paid by
the republicans and Mark Hauna.
Mr. Osborne and myself are the
only ones here in the interests of
straight populism. 'Cyclone'
Davis, Tim Weaver and two
other prominent fusionists are in
the state in the interests of demo
crats. According to the same
logic there must be at least two
mark Hannas in the democratic
party as four of their speakers
are supported here." His ar
raignment of democracy was
scathing; He said: "Democ
racy in the West is a vague
reaching-out lor something in
the nature of a reform; democ
racy in the East is an organized
appetite for office, and democ
racy in the South is a thing op
posed to everything, something
that never learns and never for
gets; it is bourbonism."
In 1802 and 1804, before
fusion began, the populists had
majorities in Nebraska and Colo
rado and made an excellent
showing in Oregon and Califor
nia. Since then Nebraska has
passed into the republican col
umn, Colorado is a doubtful
state, and the populist vote in
Oregon and California has been
sadly lowered. The populist
Jonah is in the bowels of the
democratic whale, but the
straight populist section will
make such a commotion in this
campaign that his whaleship will
disgorge.

George W. Den man.
The subject of the following
skekh needs no introduction to the
people of Benton county for it is
doubtful if there is another person
Su well known to every man, wo
man and child fn this coumy as
Geo. W. Denman. This brief syn
opsis of his work in behalf of our
schools and their patrons will be of
interest to every one:
Born in Missouri 1871, he came to
Independence, Oregon, when 7
years old, and has been a resident
ot the state twenty-two years,
twelve of which have been spent in
Corvallis. He received his educa
tion at Independence and Corvallis
under the tutorship of such able
and prominent instructors as Prank
Rigler, city superintendent of Port
land schools, ex-Sup't W. E. Yates,
ex-Sup't R. F. Robinson, of Port
land, ex-Presidents B. L. Arnold
and John Bloss of O. A. C. On
completing his common school edu
cation he assisted his father who
followed his trade of stone mason,
plasterer and brick layer. Many
of our citizenB will remember George
assisting h s father in building Mr.
Pole Avery's store, juetnortof Hus
ton & Bogue's. After helping his
father for a number of years he en
tered the Oregon Agricultural col
lege, in 1889, graduating therefrom
tn 1893 with the degree of B S.
While attending college he was com
pelled to work evenings and Satur
days to pay his expenses. By clos
application and untiring efforts he
completed in four years the B. S.
course with honor to himself and
credit to his parents. After gradu
ating from college he began teach
ing, in which he was unusually suc
cessful, having taught for six suc
cessive terms in Dist. No. 93, in
which place he was still teaching
whan elected county school super
intendent. As county school superintendent
his record has never been
equaled by any other superintend
ent of our county. He has devoted
his entire time and attention to
building up the educational system
of Benton county until it is sec
ond to none in the state. He was
the first superintendent to attempt
grading the country schools of the
county. Through this scheme the
pupils of the country schools were
enabled to graduate in their home
district and receive a graduation
diploma wleich admitted tus bearer
into the O. A. C. without further
examination. This filled a long
feit want and has saved the citizens
of our county many dollars.
He managed the local teachers'
institutes of the county which have
been the means of arousing such in
terest and enthusiasm never before
experienced in Benton. Of all the
large number conducted he has
been more than successful in every
instance. It was he who held the
first and only school officers con
vention or institute ever held in the
county.
To improve and make more regu
lar the attendance in the county
schools he has arranged monthly
contests between each district. The
district having the highest per cent
of attendance each month holds a
satin banner, purchased by himself.
A school on winning the banner
three times receives a county roll of
honor nicely framed. Each pupil
who is neither absent nor tardy for
three successive months receives a
certificate of perfect attendance.
He was the only county superin
tendent in the state who arranged
a program for the schools on the
anniversary of Dewey's victory.
While the law only compels the
county superintendent to visit the
schools once a year, he has made
two visits every year, spending on
an average two hours 10 each school
He also instituted the union pic
nie plan and each year holds them
all over the county. He held last
year five of such picnics. At these
gatherings he pays out of his own
private funds many dollars for
prizes and the like.
By his constant hard work and
untiring energy has beco ne the by
word of every school boy and girl
in the county, and we doubt not if
each pupil jn the county is not on
familiar terms with him. So effi
ciently did he perform his dutiey
during his first term of office, that
in the last election he carried ever
precinct in the county except Lobs
ster, and received the handsome
majority of 66 1 over his opponent.

CORVHLLIS,
Dscorction Day.
The Grand Army veterans, members
of the Woman's Relief Corps and sol
diers of the iate war assembled iu body
at the Evangelical church together with
the congregations of other denomina
tions last Suuday to hear tho eloquent
pastor of that church excel himself in
his memorial tribute to our heroic dead.
The church was packed, the standing
room and all available space being filled
with a devoted audience. Rev. Myron
Boozer made a most profound appeal for
the preservation of the American Sab
bath and our American system of free
public schools, as the principal factors
and agencies for the preservation of our
republic and christian civilization.
Upon the rostrum were assembled the
clergymen of all the other churches of
our city who participated in the devo
tional exercises of the service which
were interspersed with appropriate music
well rendered .
In the evening the Veterans and Wo
man's Relief Corps by invitation of Dr.
Thompson assembled ia body at his hos
pitable church. Rarely has the Presby
terian church entertained a more rtrictly
representative audience than appeared at
that service. Upon the church walls
were hung the banners and flags of the
Grand Army as their offerings in com
memoration of Memorial Day. Dr.
Thorn dsou is always eloquent and im
pressive, but never more than on this
occasion when he paid his rich tribute to
our heroic dead and to the noble patriotic
women who have organized themselves
all over our land to perpetuate their
memory. He discoursed on "Memor
ials," calling atteation to the historic
memorials of ancient as well as ot modern
times memorials in art, science and lit
erature, memorials which give distinc
tion to the great events of every historic
epoch both civic and military.
Wednesday, Decoration Day, the regu
lar memorial exercises were conducted
under the auspices of the G. A. R. and
Spanish War Veterans. This is the first
time the latter organization has obseryed
the day, and their presence gave greater
significance and added interest to the oc
casion. Promptly at 2 o'clock the parade, com
posed of the cadet band, cadet battalion,
Woodmen, school children, G. A. It.,
Spanish War Veterans, W. R. C.and
citizens, formed at the G. A. R . hall and
moved to the Crystal Lake cemetery.
Here ths beautiful service Of the Grand
Army was performed ; a firing squad of
cadets saluted with three volleys, and
the bugle sounded taps.
In the evening an appropriate program,
consisting of music, recitations and an
able address by Superintendent Denman,
was rendered at the Methodist church;
concluding the exercises in the observa
tion of this dearest day to all Americaus.
W. D. Kay.
V. D. Kay, a prominent citizen
of Benton county, died at his home
one mile west of Monroe, Saturday.
The cause of death was cancer of
the stomach. Mr. Kay was born in
Louisville, Ky., March 27, 1835,
and came to California in 1858. In
1859 he started for Oregon on the
fated ship Northener, and was one
of the few survivors of the memor
able wreck of that vessel at Cape
Mendocino. During the excitement
attending the foundering of this
ship Mr. Kay jumped into tne surr,
was immediately caught around the
feet by a man much larger than
himself, and swam to shore with
his burden, where both exhausted
and almost lifeless, were soon re
stored. May 13, 1866, he was
united in marriage to Mrs. John M.
Davis, and to this couple six child
ren ere born, two are dead. Those
living are H. Ed Kay, W. Hugh
Kay, Mrs. Sidney Evans acd Mrs.
Mel G. Evans, all of whom reside
near Monroe. The wife survives
him. Mr. Kay was a member of
the Christiau church and of the
Grange.
