The team of Clyde Beach indulg
ed in an animated spin last Satur
day at noon. Mr. Ueach had just
unloaded some milk and cream at
the Corvallis Creamery when the
whistle of that institution announced
th hour of twelve. This was too
mnch for Clvde's fractious steeds
and thev started on a tour without
their owner's chaperonage. They
laid their course due north and had
only proceeded as far as the Sheas-
oroon and mix ton mm. some iiuy
yards or such a matter, when the
wncron turned so nearly over mat

The" horses broke away from the
vehicle at this point aud continued
their flight, to be captured later.
The harness was pretty badly used

for Mr. Beach, but he mav
be thanktul that it did not turn out
even more disastrously.
For the first time in the his

A special train bearing these
gentlemen arrived in Corvallis
Friday morning. They were
met at the depot with carriages,
whence they were taken to the
college farm, where they were
shown the various buildings and
about the grounds. A public
meeting was held at the city hall
at ii o'clock, at -which time Mr.
McKinney addressed the business
men in attendance. The speaker
was introduced by Prof. E. R.
Lake. Mr. McKinney began by
saying that he was familiar with
the climate and resources of all
the states of the Northwest and
that Oregon surpassed all others
in both particulars. For a num
ber of vears it was his business to
enrnin-nore immigration . to the
state of Washineton, and no lit
erature concerning the state of
Washington was ever permitted
to come to light daring that time
if he could prevent it. "There
has been a systematic effort,"
said he, "to keep Oregon in the
background, but her opportunity
is now here. All that is neces
sary to have this state make
great bounds in commercial and
industrial growth is the co-opera-tmn
nf her teonle in the work
proposed by the Harriman syndi
cate. "
Mr. McKinney is the head of
the immigration bureau of the
rTarrimnn railwav svstem. and
his headquarters will be at Chi
cafro. The plan ot operation
will be this: Agents will be
the cities of Des
Moines. Indianapolis, Chicago,
Pittsburcr and Louisville. These
cities will be their headquarters.
From them thev will visit tne
various towns in their territory,
and become acquainted with the
namfs' nf nersons who are con-
temolatinff a change of location
L .
T.ists of these names will be sent
to Mr. McKinney' s headquarters
at Chicago, and the prospective
immigrant will have placed in
his hand literature setting forth
in general terms the advantages
offered by the state of Oregon.
Literature setting iorth the ad
vantages of any particular sec
tion must he rrovided bv tne
people of that section. For in-
stance, if the people ot .Beaton
t
county wish to attract setllers to
this locality, they should have
printed 50,000 or 100,000 pamph
lets descriptive of this county
and its resources and turn them
over to the agent of the S. P.
company at Corvallis. They
will be sent to Chicago and dis
tributed free of charge. No
such opportunity has ever bean
offered to the people of Oregon
Mr. McKihnev predicts tnat
within the next five years 100,000
that he was going west, he did
not stat at the time the exact
point oi his destination, nor
definitely his business.
It appears that a complication
had arisen over the right, title
and possession of the grain ware
house at Philomath. - The ware
house was leased bv the C. & E.
R. R. Co. to W. A. Westgate, of
Albany.' Ben Felger was the
local agent for Mr. Westgale,
