rUE CORVALLIS GAZETTE Published Tuesdays and Fridays by Gazette Publishing Company. . . . -. : n., for eeveral years has beea. aad remaios, I $2 per annum, or 25 per eent discount if ' paid in advan. e. . i - ' MUST AROUSE. Whatever may be the cause, it seems that there is some lack of public-spiritedness in Corvallis. In many ways we have forged ahead in the last ten or fifteen years, but at present it seems more difficult, than : formerly to arouse an interest in matters of a public nature. , ;v - : ; It is an old ' saying that one's life is what, we make it. In many instances this is true, ; but 'tis not always so. There are exceptions to all rules. Let us presume that rule supposed to work individually be transferred to a community of-people. If herebe any truth in the above old saw, then Corvallis is what, the people make her. At present a few are exerting themselves to have the place 'make a creditable showing on "Corvallis Day" at the Exposi tion. They find a lack of inter est the greatest hindrance to what they have undertaken. . It seems hard to be obliged to face and acknowledge such a truth, but harder still to dwell upon such a condition. , A committee soliciting funds wherewith to defray the5 ex penses of securing flags, banners, and many other items necessary . for decorations in connection with the excursion to Portland and the parade after the people reach the metropolis, report that their canvass has been rather disheartening in several instan ces. . Can anyone give a good reason why this should be the case? ' ' ; " Assuming that the. ' town is "what you make it, why cannot we make it better ? It can be done in one,- and one way only. The people must be united for the public weal. .What is for the public good is for the benefit of i the individual in the end. So let all feel a responsibility in. this . matter and come to the front. Many are very generous, -very zealous and to them fall the larger share of the public' burden." Let all assist and the load is light! . The opportunity of a life-time is at (hand. - Now, take hold of it and hang on. " GOING DEMOCRATIC. A democratic governor, a dem ocratic sheriff in Multnomah county, and a democratic mayor in the City of Portland ! - And yet there are those bold enough to declare this a republican state. Prior to the city election in Port land, last Monday, few could have been found itt Corvallis who ; would have expressed a convic tion, that Dr. Harry Lane would defeat George M. Williams for maycr of Portland. L v.v; . Those well informed on the early history : of Corvallis slat e . that Portland's mayor-elect was born in this city and that he lived here tiutil about 12 or 14 years of age. --That he will make "a good major Was ceitiinly the opinion ot the majority of Port land voters. : He was elected by a majority of something more than 1,200. This is not a great ma jority for a city the size of Port land, but invt.be- lace of a sup posedly large republican majority it is indicative of no; inconsider able strength. -V bjme way, it seems nard, mT deed, to have Oregon's "arand old man", turned down, too, by the people of a community that he more than,; any other shaped the destiny 01 with the uneras ing labor of a life time. - - It sure ly seems like ingratitude on ' the part of "that peop'e ai.d thereis nothing that so 1 urts as ingrati tude. wiiuams made a good mayor; there was nothing radically wrong with; his administration, v Dr Harry Lane will probably make a good mayor, but praises be tc tiveasGeo. H. Williams. - : Why was : Williams turned down? For the same reason that has caused so many- republi can defeats in recent years dis- rr . . . . a ... .7 r " lanecnon among me pany. u:m- ocrats will fight like furies amocg themselves, but on election day they are at the polls to a man and vote democracy to a hair line. When republicans tollow the tac tics of their opponents they may "hope to win. - .A Good Recital. The Methodist church, South, was filled with an appreciative audience on Tuesday evening, who listened to -an interesting and well rendered program, given by the music pupils of Miss Mamie Cauthorn. With the ex ception of three, the class appear ing was composed of very young girls, yet in techinque and es pecially in expression, the ability of the teacher to de velope her pupils, as well as that of the class to interpret the composer, was very clearly shown. The audience was highly; entertained and Miss Cauthorn has reason to be prond of her work and her pupils."

The picnic at Rider's Grove, Saturday, wat well attended. v Many people were there from all parts of both counties, numbering from four to five hundred all told, and from the number of summer costumes that were worn by the ladies no doubt they expected an ideal day, but so, they were sorely disappointed, for shortly after the noon hour the rain be gan to poor. The men began to hunt overcoats and the ladies were seeking shelter wherever it could be found. Those who had covered rigs soon found shelter from the storm,: while those who had open rigs were compelled to Stake their medicine gracefully, which they did with that hilarity of spirit that would lead one to believe that there wa3 nothing like having a picnic in June.
