The annual meeting of the Corvallis Poultry Association was called last Thursday even ing, for the ' purpose of electing officers for the ensuing year and perfecting arrangements for the holding of their annual exhibit in Corvallis, which will occur in the Opera House, November 30, December 1st and 2nd. The following officers were elected : President, Bowen Lester; vice- president, A. L. Knisely; secre tary and treasurer, Gene M. Simpson; assistant secretary, W. G. Emery; superintendent, J. G Horning; members of executive committee, Henry Ambler and W. J. Kent. A vote of thanks was given the retiring officers for their untiring efforts in holding last year the most successful poultry show in the state. Not only those direct ly interested in breeding fancy poultry, but the business men f Corvallis in general, aided mater ially in making the last show a success. No other town in the state has been so advertised by its fancy poultry as Corvallis. Scarcely a show ot any promin ence on the coast has been held during the past few years with out at least a few birds from Corvallis beine the winners of blue ribbons. The books of the association show about $30.00 on hand from last year, and the amount of in terest being taken again this sea son insures a rousing big show for Corvallis this year. Some big special prizes will be offered, i the nature of which will appear in these columns later. Last year Corvallis advertised "the first and largest poultry show in the state" and delivered the goods. Again the fall show sea son on the coast is opened in Corvallis. Our fanciers realize the advantage of holding the first show of the season. The catalogue of last year's show was the neatest thing ever gotten out on the coast, and was printed in this office. A com mittee consisting of Henry Amble, J. M. Porter and Prof. McKellips was appointed to get up trie catalogue lor this year's show. It is the general custom of poultry shows to wait until in tending exhibitors write for a catalogue, giving ruks and pre mium lists, etc., but to keep up the reputation of Corvallis for doing things" the Coryallis As sociation mails a catalogue to every poultryman on the coast, from an alphabetical list made up every year by the secretary. C. G. Hinds, of Alameda, Calif., who officiated last year, will judge this year's show. His rep utation as a poultry judge is too well known to need further intro duction. This year's show will have many new features. Watch these columns for particulars. INCREASE IN AMOUNT TAKEN TO EUROPE BY AMERICANS.

The recent gold exports, small In volume as they were, are sug gestive of the relations which this mar ket bears to those of Europe and serve to recall the fact that one of the po tent factors in shaping the course of ex change between New York and Euro pean centers Is the summer expenses of Americans sojourning in Europe. This is an item which naturally does not appear in the reports of our for eign trade, but it is" of sufficient impor tance to materially modify the balance of trade in our favor representing the excess of exports over imports. These expenses of Americans in Eu rope go on of course in some degree all through the year, but the amount spent abroad-is naturally largest in summer, and it is during this season that the effect of this particular feature of the international exchange situation is most felt. "With the increase in travel to European countries the amount spent in this way by Americans has largely increased in recent years. It is of course impossible to estimate close ly the amount of money hich is an- nually lost to the United States in this way, but that the amount is large is universally admitted. On the other side even closer attention is given to this particular phase of our foreign rela tions than we ourselves give to it. A New York banker who was recently abroad largely in connection with im portant exchange transactions, in dis cussing this question the other day stated t that while in Paris he met a French banker who had made careful investigations with a view of ascertain ing so far as possible the actual amount of this particular factor in the exchange market. The estimate finally reached by this banker was that the amount spent annually by Americans traveling in Europe was close to 80.000.000. or $40.0,000,000. This is fully 5150 000.000 in excess of the estimates that have been current for some years. This is one of the things which explains why. despite the large trade balances in our favor, the New York market is frequent ly placed in the position of a debtor abroad. This item and perhaps an equally large mount annually paid to foreigners for height and insurance charges on ocean traffic make up a sum which it takes a Tery large trade bal ance to offset.

Rate, residing near the city limits, has fought unaided the Big Spring & Beaver Valley Turnpike , company, whose road passed his prop erty, and which, he maintained, was a public nuisance. His victory has final ly been won, the court having just or dered the turnpike condemned. As far back as 1888 Rate first began condemnation proceedings against the company. The latter resisted, and a suit resulted, which Rate won; but the decision was reversed by the supreme court. Rate then refused to pay toll, and threatened to tear down the gate house, thereby inviting another suit to test his allegation that the turnpike was a nuisance and an unnecessary public infliction. 7 Again he was prosecuted, and won the suit in the lower court, only "to be again reversed. Still unrelenting in his determination to close the toll gate, Rate, with the assistance of his neighbors, began an agitation for the easion of South, Duke street. It was finally opened to a point beyond the company's tollhouse, enabling trav elers to get into and out of the city with out paying toll. This was a practical victory for Rate, for the company's business was in time almost completely destroyed. The road was soon in a deplorable condition, owing to lack of repairs, and then Rate again took steps to have it condemned and the toll gate removed. 1 These have at last been successful, and the turnpike is now a free public highway. Nearly the entire length of the turnpike was within the city limits. New York. According to the final es timates of th6 commissioner of taxes and assessments, New York city this year is worth $5,812,156,227 and will pay taxes on this amount. This is an in crease of $271,613,570 over the assessed value last year. Of this increase $06 12u,522 is charged against real estate and special franchises, the latter, under the law, being charged as real estate The balance, $65,493,038, represents the increase in the value of the personal es tates of the resident's of the city which the commir.3ioners have been able to place on the tax rolls. This increase will cut the tax rate of $1.51342 on each $100 of last year to $1,46885 this year. The reduction tb year, the las: ot Mayer McUiellan-s pres ent term Co mayor, does not equal thr rate in 1303, the last year of Mayo; Low's administration, however, when the tax rate was $1.41367. Andrew Carnegie still leads the list on the personal tax rolls, being assessed at $5,000,000 on his personal estate. In addition Mr. Carnegie's residence on Fifth avenue and Nineteenth street is assessed at $2270,000, He will be re quired to pay a bill of $107,000 when the tuxss fall du3 ver.t October. John D. Rockefeller is second on the personal list with an assessment of $2,500,000, and Russell Sage is third with an assessment of $2,000,000. inmimuumtM.'Uu iniiiumiii Afegetable Preparationfor As similating theFoodandBeguIa ting theStoinactis andBowels of Promotes Digestion.Cheerfur ness andRest.Contains neither Opium,Morphine nor Mineral.

Unfit Marriages. An eminent physician, writing to the London Daily Mail, demands legis lation which will prohibit marriages between persons afflicted with either mental or physical diseases. He as serts that his investigations show that a large proportion of the inmates in hospitals and insane asylums are com mitted to those institutions because they inherited their affliction. "In savage races," he adds, "natural selec tion remorselessly cuts down the dis eased, the race does not become con taminated, and thus a high standard of health i3 maintained. We, on the other hand, surround the weaklings with an artificial environment, and we struggle with all our strength against the law which condemns the unfit to extinction." - Tonsorial Geniuses. Some time ago an English author, George R. Sims, invented a new hair restorer. Now Gabrielle D'Annunzio has distinguished himself by concoct ing an essence for the perfuming of the bath. The exploit has led one of his commentators to hint that "one sometimes feels his need of a per fumed bath after the perusal of his unexpurgated works."
