Editorial Comment.
Reports from J panese sonrcfr
ioasived at Tokio says that a
sranill Russian txpedition from
ELxmcbaika v'sittd Scnshn I.--Jjttxd,
north ot the Island of
KSiiaido, and in the absence of
tbseimen, filled the women ai d
ciriiidren and burned the houses.
2!Ixs seems incredible, but is on
afcjpar with the action of Russian
fra-ces, both on land -and sea,
dusting the present war and is
EiSaehy true.
XheTig strike of the meat
fwtfkers in Chicago has signally
filled and most of the men have
ggtme back to work. The strike j
rHTolved some 53,000 persons
auati cost the strikers about!
3&,ooo,ooo and the packers a loss
7,500,000. The company
practically refuses to recognize
atiry union, and while the skilled
'iut?n will be taken back the pres
ent! force of unskilled men will
lea-etained. As usual the families
at ithe strikers are the .greatest
sarSferers.

Ji Seattle Judge has handed
down a decision which virtually
sacs'that a drug store has the
light to engage in the sale of
leer to the same extent as a
saloon and they can not be prose
oiled for not having a city liquor
license. Under the ruling if the
oraaggist'has a state license all he
Ekas to do is to register the sale of
satSbottle of beer as for medicinal
purposes and he is not guilty of
as offence. This i a hint for
ttsr druggists after the local
optionists have closed up the
saloon?. Put in an extra book-
feoeper to keep tally and sell all
yau please.

A Saddened Family,
Sorrow and sadness reign - su

iniits above Philomath,- because

Gracie swallowed several sweet
ccated pills and in less than an
hour her lifeless form lay stretch

it all happen that the sympathy'

girl, thankful that it "was not her
own that dud. ..' ,r
The family were moving from
their house above the mill to oue
nearer. In the chaos that nearly
always prevails ou tuch occasions
the box of-pills was left on the
table and the little girl, being at
tracted by the rattle of theboxes,
opened themtnd, thinking them
candy, ate "them. It is supposed
that she took, about 15, enough
to cause death to several psrsons.
When Dr. Newtb arrived from
Portland an hour after the med
icine began to take effect, the lit
tle girl lay silent id death.
The parents, when they realiz
ed that something was wrong,
gave the child sucn remedies as
they thought best, but nothing
availed. The pills were Dr. Hec
kle's cascara compound, besides
cascara, containing strychnine,
nuxvomica and belladoaa, all of
them poisons. One is consider
ed a physician's dose.
All Rright! Go Ahead.
Henry Ambler, of Philomath,
has the best display oi farm pro
ducts in Benton county. Strange
that there is not a single place in
Corvallis, where strangers may
see samples ..of growing grain,
fruit and -vegetables. ' Is it be:
cause our real estate - men lack
enterprise? A display ; of this
kind is an absolute essential and
one of the prime requisites of a
growing community. Mr. Arab-
let is talking of moving his dis
play to the Ambler & Watters
headquarters at the Hotel Cor
vallis. This we believe will be
01, more service to toe nrra ana
being in a location where new
comers will see it and it will also
be of more value to the county
than at Philomath The princi
pal article in Mr. - Ambler's dis
play is a huge cone laden branch
of the noble fir from Marysr Peak
for which Mr. Ambler paid a
round sum. His samples of
growing grain are tne nnest in
the Willamette valley the heads
being well filled and some of the
stalks are -nearly seven feet in
length. His fruit and vegetable
display is also excellent and con
sists wholly, of Benton county
products. Mr. Ampler Has cer
tainly arranged a display that is
very attractive and valuable.
Fred and Carrie Porter, ot Bell
fountain, were married in Albany
Aug. 31st, and when they re
turned home from their honey
moon trip a few cays ago every-
struments, a horse fiddle or two,
and a number of oil cans, cow
bells, etc., made up the band on
the night of the serenade. Fred
and Carrie are very highlv es
teemed young people and have
the best wishes of a wide circle of
jfiiends at Bellfountain and else
where, as they start on their
journey of wedded life. '
