Orin Hamlin, a driver on Hns
ton's dray line, committed suicide
in Albany, April 1st. Unrequited
love is said to have been the cause
of his trouble. Hamlin spent his
boyhood days in Corvallis, where
his father died years ago. He was
a. hard-working fallow, cbout 25
years of age.
About two years ago a Harvest
Souvenir, descriptive of Corvallis
and Benton county, was gotten out
in the Gazette office. The adver
tising committee of the Citizens'
League desire to secure as many as
possible of these souvenirs for dis
tributien, pending completion of a
pamphlet whieh the committee is
preparing. Parties having copies
will perform a service for the coun
ty by leaving them at Bryson &
Woodson's office.
Squire Kycraft was in Corvallis,
Saturday, on his way home to Al
sea, after an absence ot three and
one-half mouths in Indiana, whither
lie had gene with his brother, who
desired to spend the remainder of
his life with his sister. The old
gentleman is dissatisfied with In
diana, however, and contemplates
moving to California. Mr. Rycraft
reports a great movement of immi
grants toward the Pacific North
west. Nearly 2,000 were on the
same and other sections of the train
that brought him west.
Albany is in a peck of trouble
over the wagon bridge across the
Willamette at that place. The last
legislature amended the city char
ter by making the bridge across the
Willamette a toll-bridge. At a
meeting of the city council the
bridge wag ordered repaired, pre
paratory to beginning the collection
of toll, at an expense not to exceed
$4,000. Last Tuesday, J. B. Tillot
80B, a contractor, commenced suit
against the city, asking for an in
junction preventing the collection
of toll on the ground that it is a
free bridge; also to prevent the re
pairing of the bridge except by
contract, and stopping the city from
going further in debt. As the coun
ty will not keep up the bridge, the
suit puts the oity in an unpleasant
position.
Professor Frank Rigler, city
superintendent of the schools in
Portland, and Prof. Burnham, of the
same system of Schools, have been
engaged to take hold of the summer
normal school work at Newport
this season. Both of these gentle
men have a national reputation as
public school men, and they will
give character to the work they are
about to undertake at the seaside.
Their school of methods will be by
far the best on the northwest coast
this season and it is believed will
attract from Washington, Idaho,
Montana, and the northern part of
California. Prof. Smith, of the Or
egon Stale Normal, will give invalu
able assistance to this werk. The
round table instruction, consisting
of painting, music, amateur photog
raphy, etc., will be placed in charge
of competent instructors, and the
seaside course of tec lectures will be
immense. The summer normal
will, probably open about the 15th
of July, while the lecture course
will begin about the 2nd of August.
This is an opportunity to perman
ently establish a great summer
school at O regon's noted watering
plaoe.

The liberal premiums offered for
county exhibits at the Oregon State
Fair this year will afford every
eounty in the state an opportunity
to exhibit her resources. There is
no question about the great num
ber of homeseekers coming to the
state this year, and the State Fair
will afford them an excellent oppor
tunity to judge tor themselves of
our resources. For this reason
alone every eonnty that makes any
pretension to general agriculture
should make a good showing. The
premiums offered on eounty ex
hibits is $1,000, divided into five
parts as follows: First premium,
$300; second premium, $250; third
premium, $200: foutth premium,
$150; fifth premium, $100. The
bouthern Pacinc Company hauls
all exhibits to and from the fair
free of charge, and a very liberal
rate is made on all other lines in
the eastern portion of the state.

Not War; but Business.
If farmers continue to bring
egg to Corvallis in anything like
the quantity they did last Satur.
day, they wont have one to bless
themselves with Easter morning.
Last Saturday 2,330 dozen
27,960 eggs passed into the
hands of Corvallis. merchants.
Every dozen of these eggs brought
15 'cents and as a result the
farmers went home with $349.50.
They did not take this amount
of money out of Corvallis, how
ever. That isn't what they
came ta town for. After they
completed their shopping, it is
highly probable that they carried
away $500 worth of merchan
dise, groceries, etc., leaving in
exchange eggs and other produce,
for a good part of which Port
land merchants will in due time
send a money equivalent to
Corvallis.
The observing will understand
why our merchants are paying
15 cents a dozen for eggs when
other places are offering but 12 x2
cents. It's business. It is not
cut throat competition; not war j
but a business proposition. They
believe that the farmer is en
titled to 15 cents for his eggs;
they are able to pay it and make
money in the long run. There
is wisdom in their course. The
fact that the merchants are pay
ing 15 cents per dozen for eggs,
has been so widely advertised
that farmers are attracted here
from Peoria, Junction, Harris
burg, Halsey, and numerous
places in Linn, Lane, Polk and
Lincoln counties, to do their
trading, who, heretofore, have
never traded in Corvallis. Let
us repeat again: Corvallis mer
chants are friends of the farmer;
not enemies of one another.
' Oui, Oul, Monsieur.
When a man is the vietim of a
ciroumstance that has a tendency
to blight his life for a time, he
is about the last person on earth
to relate his experience. A gen
tleman who visited the Paris ex
position last year recently told
of an amusing experience he had
in "Gay Paree." While passing
along the street one day he con
cluded that, he had better get
shaved. Accordingly' he en
tered the first barber shop he
came to and took a chair.
While arranging the prelimi
naries for ''skinning" the barber
harangued our fellow-townsman
with a lot of unintelligible "gib
berish." Oar citizen, not car
ing to admit that he did not un
derstand French, vigorously re
sponded "oui, oui, monsieur,"
when the barber concluded his
remarks. The barber then
touched a call-bell and in a mo
ment a number of singing girls
appeared on the scene. During
the time he was getting shaved
he was. entertained with music,
both vocal and instrumental.
Paris stock went up in the esti
mation of the Corvallfsite, and
he made up his mind that a
Parasian barber was the "real
thing.',' The barber was very
polite in his attentions and our
friends heart warmed up con
siderable, so much, in fact, that
when he got ready to leave the
shop he handed the : tonsorial
artist a franc (20 cents), despite
tee tact that tae price of shaving
was only about 10 cents. Then
the barber waxed violent and
demanded 20 francs. Our towns
man understood just French
enough to know that this was
.. Protest on hi9 part was in
vain and he paid the bill rather
than take a chance On his anat
omy. To this day he holds
Parasian barbers and their meth
ods in contempt.
Citizens' League Meeting.
The regular monthly meeting
of the citizens' league oceurred at
the court house Monday evening.
Many members were present and
much enthusiasm prevailed. The
committee who have charge1 of
the preparation of the pamphlet
advertising Benton county, re
ported progress.
E. E. Wilson, who. was in
structed at a former meeting to
continue correspondence with
parties desiring to establish a one-
set woolen mill here, read a letter
from these parties stating that
they would visit Corvallis in the
near future.
. The committee appointed to
confer with the county court
relative to the settlement of the
boundary line between Benton
and Lane counties, reported that
an understanding had been
reached between the courts of
these counties and the matter
was on the eve of a solution.
E. R. Lake, E. E. Wilsonand
W. H. Curran were appointed to
co-operate with the county court
in preparing an exhibit at the
state fair. Last year- Benton
county took third place and a
prize of $50. Five premiums
will be offered this year: $300 for
first; $250 for second; $200 for
third; $150 for fourth and $100
for fifth.

Defends the Doctor.
We recently noticed in an
Oregon newspaper a statement
that prominent farmers of Clack
amas county have criticised Dr.
Withycombe's objections to the
summer-fallow system whieh
prevails in the Willamette Val
ley. An examination of the
oriticisms offered shows that
they were the resnlt of not know
ing the position taken by Dr.
Withycombe. If these farmers
would arrange for institutes in
the neighborhoods in whioh they
live, and get Dr. Withycombe
to come and have a friendly dis
cussion on the question with
them, they would find that he
does not dispute the claims they
make for the summer-fallow
system, bat points ont the ulti
mate weakness of tha system,
and advises the adoption of a
system which will proye at least
eqnally as effective in Imme
diate results upon the yield of
grain crops and at the same time
keep up the supply of humus in
the soil and maintain permanent
ly its productiveness. The bare
sommer-fallow acts npon the
land as a stimulant. It increases
the yield of the following crop,
but it does so at a great sacrifice
of the elements of fertility in the
soil. Rural Northwest.

Third: Is the price reasonable.? Che;

Why? Because they never givealii
