A Corvaliis business man prophe
sies mat tnis city will have a popu
lation of 5000 before the close of

be realized, as the town is certainly
enjoying a marvelous growth, both
from the point of business enter
prises and residence increase. A
prettier "home town" can not be
found than Corvaliis. and with an
increase in business life there will
no doubt be a corresponding in
crease in population as predicted.

judges awarded first place to Ever-

given second place in the contjst.
The winning oratrr, Mr. Jonas,
spoke on '"Principles of Citizen
ship." The decision of the judges
was unanimous in favor of Albany's
representative. Four colleges were
represented in the state contest
last nightAlbanv, Dallas, Mo
Minnville and Philomath. Ex.
Congressman Hawlev thinks it
thiuld not be expected of hi
cure an appropriation for the lifting
o the embargo at Oregon City be
fore the cai.p.-n for his second
t.-rm is made. 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

Adam Wilhelm, Jr., and Clifford
Ralls, bolh of Monroe, returned the
last of the week- from a several
dayo' visit in Portland, i where they
pu.rcnasea all tne machinery to

established at Monroe. An ice
plant is also to be : started, and a
deal ia on for the purchase of the
equipment of a Eugena plant.
f ailing in tnia, tbe necessary
machinery will be purchased in
Portland. Monroe is . certainly to
be congratulated upon her enter
prise, and there is no doubt that
the project will meet witb success.
There ia another case of scarle
fever in Corvalli-". The patient is
l.ttle Glenva Gray, daughter of Mr.
aud Mrs. F. O. Gray, and the resi
dence was quarantined Friday The
little one was very ill for a couple
of dys but is improving and no
serious trouble a anticipated.
Every precaution has been taken
and it is hoped the disease may be
prevented from spreading. Mr.
Gray has been for several mouths
in Idaho, and Mrs. Gray ia alone
with the little one during the quar
atiue, Miss Greeta, the elder daugh
ter, wh is in college, having gone
elsewhere to board before the fever
had deveiopej. .

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
