"Linn County Council P. of H. met Saturday with Sand Ridge Grange D. H. Bodine, presid ing. "Several granges were repre sented. The reading of the mm utes of the previous session held with Crowfoot Grange, showed that a resolution was adopted to the effect that the president of ' the OAC to be select to succeed- President Gatch lately resigned, "Should be a man in touch with the farming interests of this state, and not a member of the present faculty. "Albany Her-ald. There seems to be a diversity of opinion regarding what is re quired to fit a man for president of OAC. So far, two classes have been heard from, and their opinions are not so wide apart as they might be. One class, to judge from the opinion voiced, seem to think something in the line of a country school teacher would be about right; while the other class evidently prefers a farmer. As a matter of fact, if OAC is ever to become a great education al institution, she must be guid ed by a broad-guage man- The field is here, and the necessity of having the best should be appar ent to all who are in any wise posted on the needs of the in stitution. The man selected as president to succeed President Gatch should posses - an educa tion not furnished . by the com mon schools of any star,e; he should be scholarly, a good dis ciplinarian and a good business man, as well as a man of good address. These qualities are of utmost importance. There is no man too good for the position, and let us have the best. FOR HUMANITY'S SAKE. In this period of business ac tivity and everlasting hustle for the almiihty dollar there is dan ger that the commands and pre cepts of tne Almighty himself will be forgotten, the wee, faint voice of conscience be stifled. Man owes to all his kind a duty which he should not attempt to escape when the debt must be met. It comes due in the form of alleviating sorrow and suffer ing for your distressed neighbor yea! for all mankind. Nestled among the sublime mountains of Colorado is an in stitution founded and maintained by men and women of the high est intelligence, and whose lofty aim is to fight and cure the "great white plague," the most appalling scourge of man. That they do cure consumption is an assured fact. This institution has been working in a quiet way for years and there is not one cent charged patients, who by the misfortune of the dread mal ady are forced under its hospi table roof. It is absolutely free to all who are poor and diseased. No one is denied its good offices. This is known as the "Nation al Jewish Hospital for Consump tives." Quoting from its by laws we find the statement: "There shall be no charge of any kind to any patient admit'.ed to the hospital, either for med ical attendance, drugs or for his care and maintenance while in the hospital." "There ia bat this 'open sesame to the sun-kissed and mountain-pillowed hospital poverty ad disease. "It is only for those who fail ly the wayeide, famishi d, ill, heirless. "Yon who have the quick-thinking mind and the bouyancv of health, you who teem with vitality and strength, you in the shelter of a happy home, in the embrace ol. lored ones give but a little i art of the prosperity God has dow-red yon with." 1 Is there not someone in this community who feels like doing I something for suffering human jity? Some person conscious of the spirit, of , man's humanity to man, with a desire to contribute their mite to farther this work for the poor and diseased? If so, please leave such contribu tions with S. L. Kline, this city, who has been a contributor to this institution for years. ALL ARE ACTIVE. Interest Increasing in Big "All Benton Fair." There is no reason to doubt the success of the proposed "All Benton" fair that is scheduled to occur iti Corvallis next August. 11 over the county the school children are enthusiastic in re gaid te the p!an, which means ihat parents are also interested or will become so at any rate through the activity ot their young folks. . Sometime ago Superintendent Den man sent to each teacher in Benton county a circular letter, stating that , he depended upon the teachers to get their pupils in terested in the tatr and to parti cipate in it. Sun't Deb'msn in htse circulars offertd ten sug gestions to teachers, as follows: i See to it that every , hoinr in your district is represented in the contest. 2 Give little talks in the norning, showing the beneficial results to be attained by enter- 3 Impress upon your school the importance of mining a cre ditable showing at the fair. 4 Impress upon your pupils i he necessity of putting forth theii best efforts in anything un Jertaken in life. 5 Impress upon them the in jury of only doing things by halves. 6 Show your pupils by vour -wn interest that you want them o enter and to win. 7 Impress upon your pupils hat now is the time to com nence, and not a month from now. 8 Do not have it said of your school when the tair is over that vour school was not represented or that only a s-mall number ot yonr pnpilsdid anything. 9 A creditable showing at the fair will rtflict credit upon vou as a teacher, provided you were instrumental in having such a result obtaintd. 10 l"n closiug, let me say, I cannot do anything unless every e icher does her part in this un dertaking;. If every teacher in charge of a school will urge, ad vocate, and suggest to their pu oils the way to get results, we can all do something. There fore, without a concerted effort on part of every teacher and every school, the fair will fall far ihort of what might have been. We, as teachers must show to the patriotic and liberal citizens of the countv who have put up the cash and premiums, tat we appreciate it. The profession cannot overlook this generosity to further oar work. I desire a report from your school to be printed in the county papers. showing what you are doing, and will do at the .air. Send me this report as quickly as possible with your name sign ed to it. It will appear in the papers just as you send it to me. We are doing this to keep up the interest in the fair. A good re port from you will interest your district more than anything else ia it. So remember to send me the report as soon as possible." The first district to send in a report is number 49. , The teach er is Miss Lillith McKenney, and she writes the superinten dent as follows: "The pupils of the Band Bos school are taking an active in terest in the Benton County Fair. They are making great plans with their flower beds and garden plots and are anxiously waiting the time when weather and seeds will permit them to see more immediate results of their efforts. ''Each one is hoping to be the proud winner of some of the val uable prizes which are offered." Subscribe for the Gazette, 1 - Record 2:11 1-2. Reg. J382. ' : .

J. C. Croft, Owner and Man., Corvallis, Ore. THOUSANDS ARE COMING. Tide of Immigration Sets In "All Roads Lead to Oregon." 'AH roads lead to Oregon" is the cry that is being sent up from all sections of the state this spring and Eastern echo answers back "to Oregon." And to Ore gon they are coming by the hun dreds, to seek homes in the state where cyclones and , blizztrds come not to fret the inhabitant. The cheap colon st rates went into effect the first ot March, and that they will be fr- itful of re suits is certain. Residents of Oregon have been writing to eastern fritnd, "watch tor the cheap rates," ana thev have wait ed and watched and now the time is at hand. Corvallis will receive her share of thfs immigration. The Citi zens' League has all aloug " done its full share towards directing at tention to Benton countv, and from the fl od of letters that has resulted fiom this advertising there i no ref son to donbt that Corvallis and Benton county will be the Mecca toward which many an Easterner will . head when he buys his tickets at some little way station in Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas or the Dkotas. These rates are being alvertised bv the various railroads throughout the United States, and this, augmented by the spec ial effort of the Portland Commercial Olub-Oregoo Development League cam paign, will certainly put this State to the forefront and result in a largely increased population. Beginning in the latter part of F ebru ary, citizens of Portland and other places in Oregon were buying tickets for their friends in the East, and this can be accom plished by depositing the cost of the tick et with any agent throughout the entire State of Oregon. The business men and property hold ers of the city of Portland are exceeding ly enthusiastic relative to these low rates and are liberally subscribing their money to advertise the resources of Oregon. Large display cards "ALL ROADS LEAD TO OREGON" are being shown in the windows of the stores and offices of Port land, which give the details and particu lars of the colonist rates, and there is no other subject that is being more thorough ly discussed. Never, until the present occasion, has Oregon taken fall and com plete advantage of this opportunity to get increased immigration, and now that the rates are available from such a vast portion of the country, every commercial organization in the state will certainly improve the chance, by inducing the people of the state to write letters to old friends and old home papere, in ' which they will give good and Sufficient reasons why Oregon is the State in which taeet tle.
