Outo.ms manta ;n D cember au I the appropriat;on bill as a matter of fact, ia nsnallc not put through until the latter part of the sesoion which is late in the spring or summer. Al hough the people of the Willamette Vail y have carried this lockage burden longer than most other p ople wculd have done, they will not ex pect the:r new congressman to ac complish the impossible. However, Mr. Hawley will find enthusiasm in the Willametta Valley, for his return to congress, to be in propor tion to his prospects for securing sid for lifting the embargo. Edi torial Ex.

Mr. Bates has informed viiss Alda Metcalf, who won the trip for Benton county; that the party will not leave before the 15th of next month, nwincr t.r delayed tiaffic on the various rail roads hich has caused so. much confusion and annoyance that it has been impossible to secure rates and make other necessary arrange ments with the officials in time to start on the original date. If you do something praiseworthy or worthy of emulation you may rest assured that someone else will follow your example. When Virgil Watters purchased a 260 acre farm near this city a week or so ago, t divide into small tracts to be sold as fruit farms, the Gazette prophe sied that his example would be fol lowed by others, and now from Monmouth come? the etory that Friday tue Frank Lucas farm of 160 acres, two miles north of Mon mouth, sold to F.
