The bicycle repair business seems

name is C. F. Hawkins, and Berry
says he can do anything from
mending a puncture to building a
bicycle or an automobile. Mr.
Berry has made a remarkable rec

early in the season. He has sold
oyer 30 wheels and the season is
yet hardly open. He handles the
wor'd-renouned Rambler.
Some of the new comers, r.re in
clined to find fault with our little
city on account of the condition of
our sidewalks in certain portions of
the town. Also with some unsight
ly old "shacks" that adorn Main J
street. We have no apology to of
fer for these things as a large ma
jority of us are as anxious for im-j
provement as any of the new ar-
rivals. However, R me was not
built in a day, and it takes a little
time to get around to the various
things that demand attention. We
have not had time to make prepa
rations for our visitors, and now
that they r.re here, we expect them
to assist us in tidying things up a
bit. It is safe to predict that in the
course of three years there will be
great improvement here in town, as
well as throughout the county.
Furthermore, we are abreast of any
town or county in the state today.

COMEDY Of IPM2S.
Ast Absurd Attack cpon tie Gazette, Put
Down fcy a Plain Tale.
In its last issue, the Times devotes fi
two-column article and an alleged editor
ial to advertising the Gazette, and em
phasizing the importance attached to the
utterances of this paper hy the citizens of
Corva!Ii3 and Benton countv. The com
pliment is dulyappreeiated. Some dis
crepancies in the context, however, call
for correction. Ct course the editor of
the Times, while measurably respon
sible, ia not to be held accountable
for what that paper said in its last issue
In matters of thia kind he ia the creature
of his legal and political mentor, who
pat him on his addlepate and urges him
into a state of indecent exposure.
The a tides referred to oncern what
the Gazette has had to say in the inter
est of good roads; the quickest method
of obtaining them, at the smallest cost,
and in such a way that the burden will
not come all" af once, but b9 distributed
over a number of years. In thia connec
tion the Gazette presented an idea,
which it said deserved development It
asked the people of the couaty to consid
er this plan and express their opinions
concerning it merits..
For reasons best known to itself, the
Times takes these articles as the basis for
an attack on the Gazette. At the out
set it said: '"The Gazette -is owned and
controlled by the Corvallis bank." Now,
the only thing wrong with that statement
is that it isn'true. .- The Corvallis bank
doesn't own or control the Gazette any
more than it owns or controls the Times.
Following this lead, it makes' the
statement that the Gazette's articles on
road improvement were inspired' by the
bank in order that benefit might accrue
to that institution. Another error in
the indictment. No perBon connected
with the bank in any manner or form
had any knowledge that the Gazette
ever intended saying anything concern
ing roads until they read the articles
when tLey appeared in this paper. No
one interested in the bank, directly or
indirectly, has ever endorsr d these arti
cles. The plan outlined in the Gazette has
been approved by farmers and business
men. They have come iato this office
voluntatily and expressed such approval
and urged us to keep the plan as set
forth in these columns, before the public.
Such prominent farmers as County Com
missioner Richard Irwin, Thcs. Cooper,
P. A. Kline, A. R. Brown, and numerous
others, have spoken favorably of the
plan outlined in the Gazette. They re
alize that no matter what plan is pursued
in the improvement of roads, the tax-
pavers of this county must pay the mil,
and they see in the plan outlined in this
paper'a way to get the best results for
the money expended.
Our fretful contemporary states further
that the Gazette urges the immediate
issue of 50,000 or JS0.C0J worth of bonds
for road improvement. But the Gazette
i3 not so ignrrant of the law as to urge
anything of the kiud. Under the consti
tution of the State of Oregon, no county
is permitted to create any debts or lia
bilities which shall singly or in the ag
gregate exceed the sum of $5,000. So it
will readily be seen that action by the
legislature would be necessary before
this countv could issue bonds in exqess
of 5,000.
In an excellent article, which appeared
in the Gazette of April 18, 1902, Mr. F.
P. Morgan, present candidate for state
senator on the prohibition and the social
ist tickets, endorsed the plan suggested
in the Gazette, and outlined a bill
which he promised, if elected, to present
to the legislature, asking for permission
to bond the county so that sufficient
funds might be raised for road improve
ment. The most foolhardy will not ac.
cuse Mr. Moman of being a party to the
indictment outlined by the Times in its
last issue.
' Mr. Geo. Smith, the present roadmast
er, had discussed the idea, of bonding
the county to raise money to improve
the roads, with farmers in all parts of
this county, before the Gazette had said
anvthin? on the subiect, and he found
them all htartilv in favor of the plan.
Now, the Times says Mr. Smith ia in
favor of bonding the ceunty, because he
will be insured of a good job at $3 per
day, That shows you what a call will clo
when you give it enough rope. Under
the plan which the Times is so frantical
ly espousing, Mr. Smith would draw a
salary of $3 per day as long aa work was
being done on the roads. But under the
plan as set forth in the Gazette aud en
dorsed by Mr. Smith, that gentleman
would be shut out of this job at $3 per
day. In other words, Mr. Smith is so
conscientious in hia efforts to secure good
roads that he is urgiug a plan which will
deprive him of a salary, in 1'ipu of the
Times' plan which will yield him a sal
ary of $i per day.
Far from pushing the bonding or any
other plan, as tho Times asserts, the
G azote has pursued an opposite policy.
It stands in the matter right where Mr.
Morgan does, when he says that he is for
this plan, "provided the legal taxpayers
of the county shall vote in favor of said
bonds at a special election."
Filially, for the Times to say that the
Cor.-allis hank would invest $50,000, or
anything like that amount of its capital
in anyone kind of securities is a foolish
reflection on the business conservatism
of the management of that institution.
If the bonds were issued in denomina
tions of $100, in a sum not to exceed
$50,000, and drawing interest not in ex
cess of 4 per cent, as Mr. Morgan sug
gests, they would he taken up by farmers
of this county, and citizens generally of
small means, w ho would eee an oppor
tunity to make a safe investment, and at
the frame time assist in giving Benton
countv the best roads in the state.

The Installation.
The installation ; of Rev.' An
drew Carraci. as castor ofte
First Presbyterian church on
Thursday evening- was a. very
pleasant and . enjoyable occasion.
A large congregation was pres
ent when the service were open
ed by the choir rendering ah an
them .in . such a manner . that it
caotivated the audience." This
was followed, "'after 'the opehizg
service';' by the male quartette
rendering one of their best se'ec
tions in fine style, - .
The Rev. H. X'. Reed, of Al
bany, presided and. preached, a
erand sermon, after which, he
propounded the constitutional
questions to the pastor elect and
the congregation.' Then came
the Rev. W. T Wardell, of Dal
las, who delivered ' the charge to
the pastor which was one of good,
plain everyday common sense,
which, if followed f will work
him a success. Rev. J. E. Sny
der, of Brownsville, , charged ;the
congregation, and he did it with
out mincing matters in the least,
and in such a way that they all
understood the meaning of his
remarks and if the church ad
hears to them and acts with the
pastor the affairs of this church
will move along in a successful
manner, Ihe addresses were an
first class, of a high Christian
tone, and delivered in such a
way that they will . be helpful to
pastor, congregation, and the
community at large.
Alter the installation services
were completed, came its recep
tion, to which most of the large
congregation remained; although
the hour was late. ' The time
was spent ia social converse and
in becoming acquainted with
Rev. and Mrs. Carrick, after
which light, refreshments were
served . by the ladies, , of ihe
church; when all : retired, voting
the evening a grand success
Bicycle Paths.
The question of the advisabili
ty of working the-" "various bicy
cle paths leading frbni Corvallis
is beginning to agitate the minds
of "bikers," If is. .quite likely
that a contribution wilPbe solici
ted of bicycle riders for the pur
oose of working paths'. There is
considerable discussion regarding
the best means, ol building paths.;
The wet weather renders it a
hard matter to cousfcHiet a path
that will last. . Anotfyer bad fear
ture is the stoekr that runs "at
large. Some- one. has suggested
the plan of running a- smooth
wire along' the1 outside- of the
path in 5h6pe' of keeping the
stock off bf;Jhe ' path. - But those
vvho have 'suggested this plan
see this objection to it: that
some old cow. m i'g h t get
started in, at one end of the path,
and some rider coanng.-alaag be
hind her, she might; have a run
for her - money for ten miles or
such a matter. ' If- during the
course of her tour she chanced to
meet another bicyclist it might
take a column to chronicle the
event. So . . this -W.ill not work.
There was alss; talk of a plank
walk, but this idea was abandon
ed because it is altogether too
expensive to be considered seri
ously. Beyond a doubt some
thing in the way of running a
scraper over the various paths
will be accomplished, and this is
about the only thing within the
reach of those who are willing to
contribute at present.
The Water Question.
The problem of securing water ia hold
ing the attention of thosg who lately se
cured residence property on College Hill.
Last year the college authorities made
an attempt to secure more water and
bored down to a depth of something like
125 feet. They Jdid not improve matters
to any particular degree. At
this depth they were still J" boring in
clay soil and concluded to desist for the
time. President Gatch recently started
Mr. Creighton at work to secure water
and struck a meagre supply at a depth of
about S5 feet-. Miss E. : J. Chamberlain
is having Mr, Weitman "sink a pipe for
her. He passed through the same water
suppiy that Mr. Creighton. struck, but
as it was deemed insufficient, proceeded
to bore to a greater depth. Sat.orday be
was down to a depth "of 90 odd feet and
wa9 boring in clay, yith bis bpring ap
paratus he will be able to go to a depth
of about 203 feet. There i'.s considerable
interest manifested in this undertaking
aud if an abundance of water is secured
by Miss Chamberlain it is altogether
likely that a crusade of well boring will
follow in short order. '
City ot Philomath Won.
The supreme court of this state lias
handed down a deci&ion in the case of
The City of Philomath, appellant, vs. J.
W. Ingle, respondent. The opinion is by
Justice Moore, and reverses the decision
of Judge Hamilton.- The effect of this
opiuioa is that the case is remanded back
to the circuit court of Benton county,
with ' instructions to the Judge to.
reverse his .decision. This ia a - victory
for the city of Philomath, and Mr. Ingle
will be left to pay the costs, which are
now in the neighborhood of $200, and
lose the amount originally sued for. It
is no less a yictory for Attorney Ed. L.
Bryan, who has conducted the case for"!
the city of Philomath in all its meander
ings and "vicissitudes from the justice
court to the supreme tribunal of the state.
"The case is one wherein J. V. Ingle
sued the city of Philomath to recover
$1.75 on an account sold to him on an
assignment for the benefit of the credit
ors .of Nichols & Holm.
The case was tried for the Erst time in
Justice Brysou's court in the fall of 1399.
The jury returned s. verdict for Mr. Ingle
but failed to fix the amount. The mat
ter was reviewed in the succeeding April
term of circuit court. Judge . Hamilton,
held that the verdict was bad and sent
it back to b3 tried again. The case was
again fried on its merits, this time be
fore Justice : Holgate. Judge Ho'gate
rendered an opinion, giving Ingle judg
ment in the sum of $rMo, and for costs
amounting to $109.70.
The writ to review the case in the cir
cuit court was returned by Judge Hamil
ton, and the case "was dismissed. The
city then appealed to the supreme court
with the result as above stated.
