Greed is generally the cause of war, on one or both sides. The irresistable desire for gain will cause one people to encroach up on the rights of another until checked. It is noticeable that when a nation becomes greedy enough to do' another nation a great injustice nothing less than a war will give check to an of fending nation. It was King George's greed that caused "taxation without representation" in this country and brought on the rebellion. Later the desire of the slave holders of the South to profit by slavery led to our war of the re bellion. Spain preyed upon the Cubans for years, aye ! centuries, using damnable oppression and exquisite tortures to draw the flow of life itself from the in habitants of the Pearl of the Antilles. That Spaniards might wax fat the blood of Cubans was drawn- This led to our war with Spain, and to our credit may it be said that we were merciful it the matter, not mercenary. The desire for power, for ter ritory, for a Pacific sea port, for future conquest far in excess of the wildest dreams of every day mortals led to the present strug gle between Russia and Japan. In this great clash of arms the war gods rebuked the Little Fa ther most severely. .In looking back over all these wars and the causes that have brought them about the convic tion that right will prevail is forced upon one with unusual force. Ultimatety right must triumph in all affairs of earth. Spangler in a vocal . number cn-, titled. Without Thee." She received a hearty recall, to which she responded. No more graci ous compliment can be paid her effort than to say that her sing ing was in keepiug with the usu al excellence of her work. "Trouble at SaterJee's" was a farce in oae act. All those par ticipating in the play did most excellently aud provided genuine entertainment. Miss Laura Pratt; as an Irish maid, was a decided success. The physical culture drill was very nice and awaken ed considerable enthusiasm. Eight young ladies were in the drill and they went through all evolutions without a hitch. A pantomime, "The Storv of a Faithful Soul," was by Miss Alice Wicklund, to the reading of Miss Crawford. It was a task requiring a conception far beyonfi the average person attempting this class of work. The mono logue entitled "The Green-Eyed Monster," by Miss Wicklund, was a most trying role and she displayed no mean ability in her interpretation. In certain parts of the monologue are' climaxes calculated to 'test the ability of any one, and in these she was not found wanting far from it. In all, Miss Wicklund was on the stage four times and her work in every way was of a high order. In emotional parts she is unusual ly strong. From start to finish the enteitainment was an enter tainment and a good one, too. Favor Sengert. i Additional Local. Judge 0. H. Stewart, of Albany de cided the habea corpus matte tried be fore him last week, in favor of the peti tioners, John and Elizabeth Senger, this place. This gives them the care, custody and maintenance of the baby girl, Wilma Ruth Warren. . As stated previously in the Gazette, the child was given to its icrandparents when the mother, Bessie Warren, their only daiuhter. died, Ian. 15, 1904, by lip r and her husband, Luthr Warren, tli(y kv 't it until com time in last January - The father at that, tim-rame to Corvallis and requested the uraiid- tnother, Mrs. Senger, to take the babe and go to his parents, who live, on a farm seven miles southwest of Browns ville, in Linn county, that he and they might visit with the child, promising to return the bahy in three or four weeks. Mrs Senger did as requested, but about a wppk af:er her arrival nt Mr. Warren's Bh- vmiii t I5rnwnvi If or a -li"iit visit an.

A habeas corpus proceeding was insti tuted for the recovery ofthe child, in the county court ot Linn county, with the re sult as above stated. . It was admitted at the trial, and it is known to many here, that Mr. andJMrs. Senger were good to their little grand child, and the question before the court was principally a legal one, whether the father could give away his ch Id and afterwards change his mind and re take it. - It is a case that has attracted a great deal of attention "both in Brownsville and Albany " wnere botn ; couples n grandparents are well known, and m stated probably to be a new new case of the kind in the state. Great Clubbing Price! CAUSES SORENESS. Just at present it appears that Germany is rubbing France's back the wrong way, so far as relates to which of the two coun tries shall be the ''most favored nation" in Morocco. Of course every utterance of the min isters of the two countries is couched in the most up-to-date language, but through it all there is evidence of unusual friction. It is hardly likely that war will be the outcome of this difference, as the cost of the war has been made very plain to the people of these countries in the struggle now progressing between Russia and Japan. Nevertheless, it is like the reopening of an old sore in France for the Kaiser of the Fatherland to turn the trick and receive the stand-in as the "most favored nation" with the Saltan of Morocco. ; Very Pleasing. ' A good audience was in at tendance at the Opera House last Fiidsy evening m the occasion of the entertainment ly- Miss Helen Crawford's class in elocu tion at.d physical culture. AU in all, it was one of the most pleasing ever given by this de partment, and' was a credit to Miss Crawford, and OAC as well Assistance was rendered by the department of vocal music. The singing of the Ladies' Chorus was very gcpd and made a favorable impression. The reci tation "In May'r by Miss Margar et Miller was well received and should be accepted as a iesson worth while for young ladies to -remember. Schumann's "Two Grenadiers" was yerv acceptably sung by Miss Mabelle Keady. The recitation, " "Mask and Dominos" by M''-s HelleBonney, was a number .nding im- periousness of manner,-"combining heartlessness, rich as is dis played by a cat playing with a mouse, and craftiness. This was an excellently rendered number. This was followed by Miss ItVi , local news. George Parsons arrived with his orchestra, yesterday, to play for the Junior hop. Mrs. Grace E. Hall has so far recovered from her recent attack ot appendicitis that she was able to be on the streets yesterday. If you wish to see a "Honey moon" properly interrupted occupy a cuair at the Opera House this evening. The senior class of OAC will do the interrupting. Miss Myrtle Shonkwiler, a grad uate or uau, nut at present a teacher in the public schools of Ore gon City, arrived yesierday to at tend the commencement exercises. The public exercises given by the Alumni will occur in the Armory tomorrow evening. After the con clusion of these exercises members ot the alumni and invited friends will repair to Hotel Corvallis where a splendid banquet will await them. There will be a big picnic next Saturday, the occasion being the annual Union Festival of tne Ply-, mouth and Corvallis Congregational churches, at the grove on the Coop er homestead southwest of this city.

"The Central Willamette Medical Association, composed, of doctors of the counties of Linn, ' BeDton and Lincoln, met at Hotel Corvallis .at Thursday evtning in quarterly session. The meeting is highly spoken of, Dr. Wallace being credit ed with a uiott interesting paper on the heart. A tine banquet was pro vided those present and the meet ing was a decided success, both socially and' educationally. The association will hold its next session in Albany in September. The sermon Sunday evemngjto the Congregational church as the ser mon in the morning to the college by Rev. "Elwin L. Housp, of the First Congregational- church of Portland, was a master piece of thought, erudition and eloquence. The congregation that filled the church to its utmost capacity was held by the preacher in high ten sion from the first to the last word. Many remained after the services for a warm hand shake and ex pression of gratitude. The choir maintained its h'sh record in -the musicil part of the service, and all connecting features were of high order. '. , Closing Out.

CECELIA STOWE, Orator, Entre Ncas Club. 176 Warren Avenue, Chicago, III., Oct. 22, 1902. For nearly four years I suffered from ovarian troubles. The doc tor insisted on an operation as the only way to get well. 1, however, strongly objected to an operation: My husband . felt disheartened as well as I, for home with . a sick woman is a disconsolate place at best. A friendly druggist advised him to get a bottle of Wine of Cardui for me to try, and he did so. I began to improve in a few days and my recovery was very rapid.
