OUR STOCK SHOW. The stock show is over. It is the second show of this charac ter in Corvallis and was a gret success in every way, ! The pre mier show ot the kind in this city was undertaken a year ago, when everyone was pleased with the result. It is safe to say that the show of last week almost eclipsed the one of a year ago. A3 a matter of fact, these stock shows should be made an annual affair. Should such be the case the exhibit of stock would be on a larger scale and the animals would look better, as stockmen would have a year in which to prepare for the event instead of but a few weeks, as has been the case during the period of our two shows. Main street is scarcely the place to exhibit the stock and we suggest the selection of a suit able site and erection of sheds, etc., for showing and caring for the animals. The chances are that an early notice of the show and a knowledge that we had good stock accommodations would bring more stock and more people to our fair. Finer stock than was seen in Corvallis last week cannot be found in Oregon, and in some in stances it would have been hard to have found finer or better bred animals in the United States. So it will be seen that this section of the state has become pretty fully awake to the value of fine stock. The advantages of a stock show are many, indeed . A show of this character stimulates com' petition of a healthy sort. More pride is taken in the animals and they receive more care and at tention. Perhaps one of the greatest advantageous features lies in the fact that the attention of stockmen throughout the country is drawn to Corvallis and they will come here to buy good animals. Corvallis as a re sult becomes a recognized stock market and every man in this city is benefitted. Let us deter mine to hold these shows an nually and give notice to this ef fect right now. APPEAL TO REASON. Of all the damnable "rot" it has been our ill fortune to see in print the issue of the "Appeal to Reason" of May 18 is certain ly the worst. It is the champion of Moyer, Haywood and Petti bone It is revolutionary in all its utterances and appeals only to the baser qualities of man. Anarchistic ideas are advocated. It hopes to profit by creating greater strife between capital and labor rather than by words of hope, encouragment and wis dom such as would be calculated to establish closer and more har monious relations between these two great favors in the world's destiny. The "Appeal to Reason" boasts of a circulation of 287, 292. Of these subscribers we blush to state that 7,039 are claimed to be, Oregonians. That common sense is so lacking on the part of so large a number of our fellows, and mental and moral depravity so general and so monstrous seems almost in creditable. Yet there are evi dences which convince us that such is true, or very nearly so. Still, despite the openness of its revolutionary and anarchistic tone, its defiance of all establish ed principles of law and order and good government, the auth orities of the United States al low it circulation through the mails. This seems almost in comprehensible for all wise men must know that it blights the ' natural patriotism of the youth of the ' land, that either igno rance or purest "cussedness" rules its destiny, that from the character of every utterance it seeks to tear down and destroy our government, and that: in no instance has it ever faced an issue on fair and broad princi ples. It was suppressed in Can adawhy not in the United States? Are the minds, morals and manners, of our people less deserving protection than our Canadian cousins? In the issue of the "Appeal to Reason" referred to is an article from the pen of Eugene V. Debs. In this article the be nighted but unblushing Debs has the effrontery to offer "For President, William D. Haywood: Platform, Labor and Liberty vs Capital and Kidnapping." A self-respecting class would be insulted by such an offer, and yet this paper has more than a quarter-million subscribers is this not significant? Despite the present quarters of Messrs. Moyer, Haywood and Pettibone, in disregard of their woeful plight and the many crimes charged to them by the author ities and a self-confessed accom plice. Debs undertakes to com pare them favorably with such men as Patrick Henry, Sam dams and John Hancock. He would have them go down in history as martyrs, whereas, if they are not worse they cannot hope to be thought better than political agitators, labor bosses and the lowest and least worthy class of "undesirable" citizens. In concluding his reprehensible article; Debs says: "For fifteen months William D. Haywood, in Ada county jail, ready to die for the working class, has proved himself worthy to live for his class in the white house of the republic." Yea! Verily worthy to live for "his" class, but we sincerly hope that "his" class will not be confounded with hon est men and women be they cap italists or working people. Are we so far'ahead of Russia? Some of the events for the Fourth of July celebration will be: Ladies' foot race, with $1.51) box of bon bons as a pri?.e from M. T. Starr's coofeotionery store; hose race, boys' race, 100 yard dash, free for all; hurdle and sack races; tug of war, potato race, greased pig aud other features. Gold medals will probab ly be awarded in the principal events. The business bouses will closs on the Fourth from 10:30 t? 4 p.m., by an agreement of the Merchants' and Groc ers' Association. This is a sort of a topsy turvy world. No one seems to be satisfied. One man is struggling to get justice, and another is flying from it. Oue man is saving up to buy a house aud another is trying hard to sell his dwelling for less than it cost, t3 get rid of it. One man is spending all be can earn takiag a girl to a theatre or show and sending her valuable presents in hopes he may eventually make her his wife, and bis .neighbor is spending all the gold he can get trying to get a di vorce. Une man keeps a pistol to pro tect himself against burglars, while his neighbor doesn't keep one for fear of shooting himself or some member of his family. One man pays for his paper in advance bscausj he cau read it with greater relish, aud another takes it four or five year without payiag oae cent for it, and enjoys it hugely ail the while. Surely a queer old world this is. Ex. The armory was packed to the doors Sunday morning with an interested audience (lathered there to listen to the annual baccalaureate sermon, the open, in g event in. the college commencement week. The speaker was Rev. Jonah B. Wise, D. D., ol Portland, who is a very sincere, impressive and polished speaker, who not only holds the attention of bis audience but leaves in the minds ot his hearers food for reflection and the con-' viction that the utterances of the speak er are from the heart. Rev. Wise eulo gized Oregon as "a place where the pleas ant things of earih are gathered togeth er," and where men have the best of opportunity and enviionment to develop into noble, powerful factors in the affairs ot the state and nation. A large mixed chorus, composed of the best vocalists in th e citv, tendered splendid music for the occasion, with Prof. Taillandier as pi anist. The armory was profusely deco rated with cedar boughs, and several ministers of the city occupied positions on the platform, and participated in the exercises, Key. G. H. Feese offering the invocation, Rev. Haadsaker reading the scripture lesson and Rev. Armstrong ' pronouncing the benediction. President jatch presided. i THESE WON CUPS. Great Success Attends Livestock Show In Corvallis. Success far beyond the fondest expectations of the promoters of the affair attended the big horse and livestock show held in Cor villis Friday and Saturday. It is estimated that five or six thousand people were in Corval lis both days and the streets were thronged from erly. in the morning until the shades of eve ning fell. Parties present from other cities and other states, and who have attended many horse shows for business purposes, daclare the Corvallis show to have been one of the largest and best that tbey have ever witnessed. Benton co'inty certainly has reason to be proud of her fine stock, proud of the big show, and twice proud cf the energetic, public spirited cit izens who made the event what it was. On accotmt of the condition ot the books which had not yet been written up by the secretary, it was impossible to obtain a complete list of first, second and third prize winners iu time for this issue of the Gazette.

Tele gram, There was a splendid game of baseball out on O iO athletic field, Saturday after- no n, betw -en OAC and the University of Oregon aine from E.igene. Owing to the stock allow, horse races and various Other attractions the crowd was not what it should have be n, but it was a spirited contest, and resulted in a score of 6 to 4 in favor of Corvallis. Very interesting services were held Sunday evening at the M. E. church in honor of its graduate members. Special music by a young people's choir led by Dr. Cathey, a solo by Mrs. Carroll Cum mings, addresses by Waldo Colbert, Prof. Cnmmings, Virgil Watters and Prof, Horner, made np a program of nnusual merit which was greatly enjoyed by a large andience. A change was made in the S. P. time table, Sunday, by which the Port land train arrives now at 11 :30 instead of at II :45 as before, and the return train from Corvallis will leave here at 1 :05 p. m. instead of at 1:10 o'clock, Portland bound. A change has also been made on the C. & E.," by which the two noon trairs depart from this city 15 minutes earlier than heretofore. The mornirjg and evening trains run on the same old schedule. LeRoy Gssner, whose home at present is in Salem and who returned not long ago from four years' study of the violin in Europe, was in Corvallis, Saturday. It is possible that the gentleman may play a recital in this city in t' e neai future and in such event we urge music lovers to attend, as Mr. Gesner has un usual talent, has enjoyed exceptional advantages and will play the world's masterpieces for the violin in a most artistic manner.

Oregonians. A Forest Giove dispatch of Friday says: "A Farmers' Institute was held hsre yesterday under the auspices of the Orpgon Agricnltural College. Professors Withycombe, Kent, Cordley and Brad ley represented the college and J. W.

This morn ing the party went out to Banks, where an institute is being held- today." Stomach's Importance.

From the earliest days of the ring the knock-out blow was aimed for the jaw, the temple or the jugular vein. Stomach punches were thrown in to worry and weary the fighter, but if a scientific man had told one of the old fighters that the most vulnerable spot was the region of the stomach, he'd have laughed at him for an ignoramus. Dr. Pierce is bringing hou to the public a parallel fact; that thq stomachis the most vulnerable organ out ofhe prJe ring as well as in it. We protect burha8s, throats, feet and lungs, but theArabhve are utterly indiffer ent to,. until disehMinds the solar plexus and knocks us ouC" Make vour stomach sound and, strong byjt he use ofDogtnr you protect voursejrin your most vulner able spot.

Wall Paper ar.d the Sick. "I am glad the trails of my bed room are not papered," said the in valid. "Xobodv but the sick knows: how nerve racking it is to lie all day long looking at the wall paper that doesn't match. It matches well enough, you understand, for people who are well. They never would notice where the flowers fail ed to hitch or the stems met too far down the fraction of an inch, but we notice it and worry over it and cry Bometimes because it worries us bo. My wall is painted light blue, the color of the skies. It doesn't hurt my eyes at all to look at it. It doesn't worry me. When the cur tain is down it is the very softest kind of blue, so gratifying that I fall asleep looking at it. Oh, yes; the only- thing to do with the walls of the sickroom is to paint them light blue." New York Press. The Age of Fishes. The normal length of life of our common small minnows rarely ex ceeds four or five years and may be much shorter, but there are few sat isfactory observations on this point. No general rule can be laid down re garding the age of fishes or the re lation between age and size. It is known that the salmons of the Pa cific coast, which enter the rivers in such immense shoals, live to be four or five years old and then invariably die after . once laying their eggs. One Japanese fish died when one year old. On the west coast of Eu rope there occurs a small fish which is like an annual plant that is, all the individuals die each year and only the eggs i. e., the seed re main to produce the next season's crop.
