some furniture, stock, etc., being

the committee intend to have pub

do much to direct immigration to
this county, and no trouble should
be encountered in .raising the nec
essary funds to secure them.
!vothing concerning the matter
of water supply for the city of Cor
vallis camo before the council for
consideration at ite meeting Mon
day night. The proposition made
by the local company some weeks
ago, which appeared at the time in
the Gazette, is still in the hands
of the special committee to whom it
was referred. A letter received
yesterday by City Attorney Yates
from Mr. Smith, the Portland bid
der, slates that bis company has
been giving the subject further con
sideration and he hopes to meet
with the City fathers of Corvallis
within the next two weeks.
Those who failed to attend the
presentation of the clever farce
comedy "Hello Bill" at the Opera
House, Monday evening, missed a
treat seldom enjoyed by local
theatre-goers. "Hello Bill" is one
J the brightest of late farce come
dies, and the cast presenting it are
all artists. 1 here is much in the
p'ay to remind one of "The Man
from Mexico," and a more appro
priate name than "Hello Bill"
would undoubtedly find its reward
at the box office. James F. Mac
donald as "Bill", has the drollery
and methods of Walter Perkins,
and is quite as clever as that actor
whe appeared as "Shaver" in the
first production of "My Friend
from India."
Concerning the Ciiamploaship.
Thanksgiving marks the end of
the inter-collegiate football sea
son 'but from the present out
look it is quite probable that one
and possibly two games,
will
have to be plaved after that date
to settle the cbamDiouship. At
present U. ot O., O. A. C. and
Albany College stand on even
terms for first honors. Albany
played Eugene a o lo o game at
the opening of the season. .u
gene and 0. A. C. played a score
less game last Saturday. In
both game V. of O. played on
the defensive nearly the entire
game, and it seemed at times
that nothing but good luck saved
her from defeat Reporter
Finch, of Albany, who witnessed
the game between Albany and
U. of O., as well as last Satur
day's contest, told the Gazette
man that" the latter game was al
most a repetition of the first, in
which the Albany papers claimed
that their team should have
scored once in each half. This
would make it appear that Al
bany and Corvallis were both su
perior to Eugene.
But games are not won nor
championships earned by articles
in newspapers. Actual contests
should aud do decide. The out
come would be far more satisfac
tory if a schedule of games could
be arranged for each season, be
tween the teams of the four or
five leading institutions of the
valley, making it compulsory for
each team to play at least one
game with each of the other
teams in the league, and fixing
the dates and places of meeting.
Because some such arrange
ment is not in vogue this season,
complications have arisen which
leave the championship in a
muddle, and give ; excuse for cer
tain newspapers to mistake abuse
of teams representing institutions
located at towns other than their
own, lor loyalty to tneir nome
team. An opinion of the merits
of the various elevens can be ex
pressed without showing feeling
in tne matter. Articles or mis
nature are necessary to awaken
interest and advertise the institu
tion which a team represents.
It is not necessary, however, for
a paper , wiiicn noias a contrary
opinion to abuse the author of
another article and question the
good faith of the management of
other teams, in order to convince
the public that its editor believes
that his home team lis a world
beater.
We believe that the individuals
composing the teams and the
gentlemen who represent the
management are all the best of
friends and have an amicable un
derstanding of the present situa
tion. All this newspaper talk about
O. A. C. being afraid or refusing
to meet Albany is without foun
dation. O. A. C. would far
rather play Albany than any
other team in the Northwest,
with the possible exception of
Eugene. Such a game would
draw a record-breaking ctowd
and swell the funds in the strong
box of the athletic committee.
An earnest effort was made to
arrange such a game early in the
season, but teims that were mu
tually satisfactory could not be
agreed upon. O. A. C. offered
to pay the expenses of the Al
bany team and give them fifty
dollars if they would plav in
this city; or they would play in
Albany if Albany College would
offer the same inducement. Al
bany refused either proposition.
She probablv had good and suffi
cient reasons for her action at that
time, and no one questioned her
willingness to play under condi
tions that suited her. But O. A.
C. had to look elsewhere for
games to fill the season's dates.
Contracts, were entered into with
Salem, McMinnville and Pacific
University. These, contracts
must be kept. After that, if the
athletic committee will give its
consent, the farmers are anxious
to play the winner of the U. of
O. -Albany College game which
takes place at Albany tomorrow.
While devotees of the game
realize that Eugene will not be
in condition tomorrow to put up
the contest against Albany that
she did with O. A. C. last Sat
urday, still the belief is general
in this city that the TJ. of O.
bovs will win bv a srood bis
margin.
G. M. Irwin in trouble.

nian contains the following facts

More About the Game.
The game of football played
in
this citv last Saturday be
tween Eugene and Corvallis has
occasioned great discussion, and
various are the opinions regard
ing the' "way it was and the way
it might have been." A Eu
gene correspondent to the Port
land Telegram has the following
to say of our team and 01 Albany
they play the latter tomorrow:
They treated us like mends."
said a member of the University
team, "and the gap which here
tofore separated the - two institu
tions has been bridged and we
hope to renew" our .athletic rela-1
tions with the Oregon Agricul
tural College.
'The University of Oregon
intends to win Saturday's game
with Albany. -We give Albany
the credit of having a strong
eleven, aud the nest ever put out
by that institution, but they will
find a different team than thry
played in Eugene the uth oTi
October :
"Dolph gave his tneti a light
practice last evening, and fur
nished a few pointers as how to
fall on the ball. He said that
the score with the O. A. C.
would have been different had
his men been able to retrieve
even a portion of their costly
fumblinsr. He intends to wrest 1
an easy victory from 'Albany Col
lege Saturday." -r
Today's Game.
The contest this afternoon be
tween O. A. C. and McMinnville
College is the last game but one
scheduled to be played on Agri
cultural field "this season. On
Thanksgiving day the farmers
play on the home field with Pa
cific - University. The latter
team is conceded to be one of the
strongest in the state, yet Mc
Minnville held it to a nothing to
nothing score in the first half 'of
the game played by these teams
at Forest Grove last Saturday.
The experience gained in that
game will be of great assistance
to McMinnville and a good hard
contest may be expected tomor
row. An interesting feature will be
the opportunity to get a line on
the team O. A. C. is to play
on Thanksgiving. , McMinnville
having held P. U. down to a 16
to o score, it will be interesting
to see what difficulty the farmers
experience in piling up as many
points.
Game will be called at 3:15
p. m.

hear of some fellow who sent to

harness or some lady sending
abroad for her shoes . This is all
very well where there are no har
ness makers or shoe makeis, etc.,
at home. But when they are at
hand it is almost a duty to patro
nize them. The only way to keep
an industry from the ragged edge
is to talk it on all sides and when
ever you need anything in its line,
patronize it. The industries are
necessary for the upbuilding of any
country and the more we have of
them the more prosperous will we
become as a class.
