h. Communication Full of Sound Advice
and Valuable Suggestions.
Editor Gazette: I noted
with satisfaction, the remarks of
a "prominent citizen," in your
last issue, touching the subjec4
of "advertising this vicinity."
This gentleman has certainly
touched a chord that should find
a response ia the minds of our
best people, and produce a vibra
tion in the acts of every citizen
in t'no community, whether
prom:nent or not.
The writer Of these lines was
a resident of Corvallis twenty
years ago, returning now after a
lapse ot two decades, it is but
natural thai many comparisons
between then and now are con
stantly suggested to the reflec
tive mind, and to the imagina
tive, pictures of what might have
been, or may I say. of what
should have been, had the busi
ness men of this county been
awake to their own Interests,
even to the extent of letting the
people of the less favored corners
of creation knew the truth about
Benton county. When I say
"business men" I mean men
wbose business is the prodntion
of food stuffs, and raw material,
as well as the manufacturer,
merchant or banker.
Corvallis tweaty years ago
was very near its present stage,
in point of population ; that there
have been many commendable
improvements, both in public
and privato property, is a matter
not to be overlooked, ana among
the many county capitals of Ore
gon, Uorvams occupies no mean
position; but during this same
score of years, see what human
energies have done for newer
towns, located where the natural
advantages and possibilities are
scarce a tithe of what is here
apparent.
The writer ha9 been privi
leged to make his observations in
all parts of United Mates and
Canada, and in trutn lie can out
say that considering everything,
Northwestern Oregon is the slow
est of the slow. Even the pro
verbially deliberate South, is
making rapid strides that will
put to shame the most enter
prising community in this state.
The great "wild and woolly"
state of Texas, will at the pres
ent rate, soon have five ot six
cities-, similar ia size to our Pert
land. What Oregoniaa will ad
mit that Texas is a better coun
try than this?
Twenty . years ago, Seattle,
Spokane and Los Angeles were
villages like this; what has
made them the important) cities
that they are today? Men and
human energies, nothing else.
These locations all presented
many advantages, , to be sure,
will any ne admit that Corvallis
had less advantages presentable
twenty years ago, or that it has
none or few today? True, all
Oiegon has lost much prestige
by its Rip-Van-Winkle sleep,
nevertheless, if it9 different com
munities will even now awaken
and da something and keap-a-doing-it,
they may speedily bring
this glorious country to the front,
fill it np with a race of thrifty,
cultured, enterprising people,
who will develop Its many re
sources, now scarsely recognized
It is painful to note the dense
lenorance in tne minas of
Eastern people, those supposedly
well informed, regarding Oregon,
and especially touching any of
the inland or smaller towns.
They know of California from
Mexico to 2nasta, they ara
acquainted with Washington,
from the Puget bound to the
Blue Mountains, bat when you
tell them the truth about Ore
iron, their eves bung out with
wonder, that these things can be
and they knew it not.
It is easy to see how with
proper financial baekingj a board
of trade, or an organization un
der any other name, a man of
abilitv as its secretary, can col
lect and publish such facts,
figures and illustrations touching
this vicinitv, as will attract a
large number of tha best class of
men to it; men with , means to
invest and a mind to be of value
to the community in which they
settle. Attracted only by the
vivid, and I may say conserva
tive, portrayal of the truth, find
ing the reality as good or better
than the representation, these
new-comers at once become well
satisfied citizens, and both the
state and the man reap a benefit
May I be permitted to express
the hope that the business men
of Benton county will at once
push this matter to a successful
issue, and let tne world Knew
that here is as good a country as
lie9 out of doors, and that it in
habited by highly Civilized
wide-a-wake mea wae wish to
share their good fortune with
.others of their kind.
The writer could experience a
just sat 'action in seeing this
county take a leading place. It
was his first adopted home, the
home of his youth, and through
the years that have intervened,
hzs ever stood ont as bys nature,
tlie favored spot of a favored
country. Yours Truly, -

Corvallis, Feb. 25, 1901.
Regents' Meeting.
New Road Laws.
All the members of the col
lege regents were present at the
special meeting Wednesday ex
cept Governor Geer and Secre
tary of State Dunbar, who sent
their special regrets for being
unable to attend. The main
object of the meeting was to pro
vide for expenditure of the funds
appropriated by the recent legis
lature for that institution. There
were two funds appropriated,
first, $20,000 for the present and
$25,500 annually thereafter.
- It was resolved by the, beard
to" expend this money in accord
ance with the relative needed
improvements at the college.
1 Toilet rooms; 2 heating of
Armory building; 3 erection of
a station building; 4 painting
of the two dormitories; 5 water
supply for the building and
grounds. A committee consist
ing of President Apperson, Sen
ator Daly and Mr. Weatherford
was appointed to manage this
expenditure.
The other appropriation was
$10,000 and the 620 acre farm in
Union county bought by the
state for an asyium a few years
ago, now turned over to the
college for experimental pur
poses. The institution of an ex
periment station at this farm
and the management of this fund
was delegated to tha executive
committee of the board with the
Eastern Oregon member, J. M.
Church, added.
A resolution was unanimously
adopted by the board that it is in
hearty accord with the action of
the legislature in thus establish
ing an experiment station in
Eastern Oregon and that it in
tends to aid it as much as possi
ble.
Architect Burgraf, of Albany,
was present with drawings for
the agricultural building, which
probably will cost when finished
$40,000, and no doubt will be
very creditable.
There were some other rnat-
i ters discussed but they were of
minor importance. The meet
ing was very harmonious and
encouraging for the college.
Most ot the visiting members
went to Albany in the evening
in a carriage.
Two bills relating to the collec
tion of road taxesj which have been
signed by the governor and are now
law, are house bills 103 and 205. .
The . former law requires courty
courts to levy a road tax of - not
more than 10 mills on the dollar,
based on the previoes year's as
sessment. The fund thus created
is to be expended under the direc
tion of a county roadmaster, who
has supervision of the supervisors.
Upon the petition of 12 free
holders of any road district, ap
proved by the roadmaster, for the
improvement of any road, the
county court shall consider the
petition, and, if approved shall ask
for sealed bids for the performance
of the work and furnishing of the
material -needed, and let ' the con
tract to the best bidder, provided,
however, that the court may reject
any and all bids. The court is also
authorized to purchase rock-crushers
out of the road fund. The tax
provided for in this act is in lieu of
taxes heretofore made oollectible
under other acts.
House bill 205 requires the col
lection of a road poll tax of $3 from
every re ale inhabitant over 21 and
under 50 years of age, unless by
law exempt. The tax must be
paid either in labor or cash, but
the county court may require that
it be paid in cash. If any person
refuses to pay the tax a suit may
be brought in the justice court to
collect the same, and the wages of
delinquent may be levied upon to
collect any judgment recovered
The tax must be expended upon
the roads of the district in which
collected. The act contains an
emergency clause, and : goes into
effect immediately. The tax be
comes due on March 1, and may be
collected between March 1" and
December 81 of each year.

as Capt. Walker . ot the Gray
Eagle anticipated, but swung in
against his craft. The weight
of the moving rafts was so great
that,, aided by the current, the
poor old Eagle was pushed up on

of all efforts, she remained there,
