It has been asserted by Demo cratic writers and speakers that a progressive falling off in the revenues of the government in dicates a decline in' the general prosperity of the people. The government's principal sources of revenue are custom duties paid on importations of foreign products into the United States and import duties, known as Internal Revenue taxes, laid opon articles of our own produc tion. This latter tax is laid almost wholly upon the manufac ture' and sale of liquor and to bacco. During peace, under Re- rw-hhPflTi administration, ine& ' sources supply ample revenue to . meet the expenses of the govern ment. The receipts of the gov ernment are carefully estimated and, after payment of interest on .the public debt and the cur rent expenses of conducting the government, congress by appro priation bills determines what sums shall be expended on the army, the navy, improvement of rivers and harbors, etc. If the revenue collected exceeds the ex penditure, a surplus remains in the treasury. This surplus has .uV.vays marked Republican ad ' ministration, but the amount of it is r ot a right criterion to judge possible to create a large surplus even when the people are not prosperous. The heaviest custom duties are placed upon luxuries which, for the most part are consumed by the rich. The mills may shut flown, mechanics .and laborers be idle, and yet those having ac cumulated wealth can continue to purchase and consume articles of luxury. The idle workmen msy consume more liquor and tobacco because of their idleness, and congress may cut down ap propriations and through these means show the government prosperous in spite of general Repression of industry. The true index to the condi tion of our industrial life is found in the clearing house transac tions in ourjgreat trade centers, ami in the business done by the savins banks. These are the linanehi pulse-beats which indi cate tha condition of trade and industry. Never before have all the con ditions of healthful prosperity been so long continued and so altogether desirable. Men every where concede this. Republicans justly claim that the unmistakable prosperity of the country is the result of pur suing Republican principles, and recall the different conditions under the last Democratic ad ministration to prove the claim. No one imagines the people de sire a change which would de stroy their prosperity. The business world is satisfied the Republican party will be con tinued in power, so we have the most unusual conditionm a year of presidential election of unin terrupted business. This itself s a fortunate condition. NO DANGER. In our correspondent's column we publish a letter from Henry Sheak, of Philomath. Readers will see hat this is a plea for prohibition, especially directed to the voters of Corvallis, and, as we believe, made in terms which will not commend the cause of prohibition to our people. The slur cast upon those who "stand for the license spstem," lost its point if it ever had any, long ago through constant use. The i finding - of many parents who "could not afford to subject their ehildren to the temptations of the saloons of Corvallis" in order to avail tnem selves of the educational advan tages of the OAC may be dis creditable to the parents or to the saloons, as it depends very much upon one's view point. There are those though, and good temperance men, too, who resent the imputation that Cor vallis, either, because of its sev eral saloons or from any other cause presents temptations and pit-falls for, the young of either sex who come here for an educa tion or for any other legitimate purpose. The citizens oi Uorvallis are moral, upright and exemplary. No city of its population has more well-attended churches, nor more caref bl, conscientious pub lic officials. In no community of equal population is there less drinking, less drunkenness, less disorder. The high moral senti ment of our people precludes these things. No where is there a college having a faculty more careful of the conducts and morals of its students than the faculty of the OAC. Altogether there is no college town where the environ ment is so free from temptation to evil in any form as in Cor vallis. Parents who have given their children proper home train ing up to the age at which young men and young women usually enter college need feel no sort of fear in sending them to Corvallis, nor for that matter to any col lege, even though the tempta tions to evil "and the opportuni ties for it are ten times greater than here. In striking contrast with the statement of Mr. Sheak, "The faculty of Philomath College has been put to more trouble from drunkenness caused by liquor ob tained from saloons of Corvallis than from all other causes put together," is the uuqualified statement of President Gatch, of the Oregon Agricultural College, who says, "For the past two years we have had no trouble with our students because of drunkenness." Other corrobo ratory evidence of the truth of our statements is not necessary. Mystic Midgets. With graceful dances, beauti ful costumes and charming songs, the "Mystic Midgets" will .be presented at the Opera House Friday and Saturday evenings. The entertainment is given for the benefit ot the Athletic Union of the OAC The rehearsals are progressing finely and everything points to a unusually fine per formance. Prof. Collins spares no pains ' to made everything a success. Over a hundred children from Corvallis homes are in the cast, while the leading parts are filled with popular young people of the town and college. Real Estate Transfers.

Many really bright children are voted dull and indolent by their companions and teachers when it is a case of eye fctrain and all that is necessary is to consult a graduated neurologist and optician who un derstands how to measure eye strain and fnrnish repression glasses to remove the cause. Dr. Lowe's skill and superior glasses will work wonders in these cases. Marys Peak Circle W 6 W had a notable meeting last Tuesday even ing, made so by visiting ; ladies.
