TRANSFER OF C. & E.
To Be Made Within Two Weeks
Interesting Facts.
Within two weeks the Corval
lis and Eastern railroad will be
formerly taken over by the Har
riman interests and operated by
officials chosen from the Harri
man ranks, says the Oregonian.
A. B. Hammond, president of
the road, tendered his resigna
tion at the meeting of the dir
ectors in Albany on Monday.
His successor has not yet been
elected but it is expected that J.
P. O'Brien, general manager of
the Harriman lines of the Pacific
Northwest, will be president of
the road. It is said that the Cor
vallis & Eastern will be operated
as a separate line and will re
ta n its name and individuality.
The date has not yet been set
for a meeting of the directors to
choose the next president of the
road, but it is expected to take
place within the next two weeks.
At that time the property will
be formerly taken over.
It is understood that G. W
Talbot, now general manager
and treasurer of the C. & E.,
will be made vice president and
general manager, succeeding J.
K. Weatherford of Albany. Mr.
Talbot will probably retain his
Portland officers.
J. A. Shaw is now secretary of
the road, and his successor has
not yet been decided uron. It is
probable that H. F. Connor or
W. R. Litzenberg, of W. W. Cot
ton's staff of attorneys, will be
elected to that position.
The Corvallis & Eastern is 142
miles long, extending from Ya
quina, on Yaquina Bay to Idan
ha, in the foothills of the Cas
cades, Connections are made at
Albany with the main line of the:
Southern Pacific. The line op
erates 18 "locomotives, 10 passen
ger cars and 302 freight and mis
cellaneous cars.
Wedded Wednesday.
. There was a quiet but pretty
wedding Wednesday at rhe home
of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Brown,
several miles south of this city,
when their daughter Miss Ella
was united in marriage to Hugh
McFadden. The ceremony was
performed at high noon, Rev. G.
H. Feese of the First Methodist
church officiating. Only the
family and a few intimate friends
were present. The bride was
prettily gowned in white.
Following congratulations, a
sumptuous wedding dinner was
enjoyed. The groom is a son of
Judge and Mrs. W. S. McFadden
and with his bride will reside in
Corvallis.
Will Build Town.
A Eugene dispatch Wednes
day says:
Honore, Palmer, the financial
head of the Storey-Bracher Lum
ber Company, which will erect a
large sawmill a short distance
nortnwest of Eugene, has pur
chased a 100 -acre farm from
Charles Severson, immediately
adjoining the mill site, and it is
said that he will lay out a town
site there and either sell the lots
or build dwelling houses and rent
them to the employes of the
mill. The location is an ideal
one for a small town.
The Willamette Valley Co. will
probably build an electric line
from Eugene to the new mill and
village, when it is established.
The work of laying off the
grounds for the mill is now un
der way. and actual construction
work will . begin inside of two
weeks. The Southern Pacific
Company has made surveys for
side tracks from the main line to
mill site, - and just as soon as
possible will send a craw of men
here to construct them.
ATTRACTS ATTENTION.
Benton Livestock Show What
An Editor Says.
An editorial in Tuesday's
Portland Journal tinder the capt
ion "Oar .State's Own Field" is
of general interest in Benton. It
The farme.s of Benton county,
according to a dispatch, went
home from their county livestock
show at Corvallis declaring that
next year they will beat the
prize winners of this year's show.
Therein is displayed striking evi
dence ot the incomparable value
o. livestock shows in awakening
competition. The man who won
goes home determined to win
next year, and so does the man
who lost.
The race for something better
is what lifted the primitive man
out of barbarism, and that, day
by day, carries forward the tri
umphal . car of civilization.
When there is an incentive jor
better livestock, and when the
competition to produce it be
comes keen, development of the
best is as sure to follow as that
dav follows night.
What makes extraordinarily
beneficial results inevitable, is
that when the better animals are
involved, vastlv greater profits
must accrue to the husbandman.
A farmer at the Corvallis show
sold a colt but a lew weeks old
for JjSioo. He knows now, and
nis neighbor knows, that a new
avenue to profit is open and that
it lies not in the broncho but in
the thoroughbred. It is a con
dition certain to result in new
energy, new study, and new in
spiration for a new industry for
which Oregon has resources be
yond those of any other stat .
The Willamette valley, which
grows prolifically every product
known in the temperate zone, is
capable alone of sustaining 3,
ooo,oao head of cattle. It. is a
field that Oregon must get ready
to occupy, for she must largely
supply the O.ient and Alaska,
and when the Panama canal is
opened a few years hence, Eu
rope will lie .at her doors, and
will demand at large prices a
heavy portion of her horses and
export meats.

The Oregonian says : The big New
York firm of Benjaoiin Schwarz & Sous
evidently have plenty of faith in the
future of the hop market, for Joe Harris,
their Oregon representative, has in the
past week or more taken on for them
about 1100 bales. This buying is re
garded as wholly speculative, and would
not be indulged in. it the firm did not
think they were , going higher. Two
years ago Schwarz was heavy buyer
when the market was hi the same condi
tion as it is at present. The result did
not justify his expectations, but this
does not prevent him from speculating
in hops now.

We would frequently see things in a

sometimes .given a newspaper by a reli

many respects and some one immediate

assistants are humbugs or worse, and
that the error has been purposely pub

hasn't. Sometimes a word or a look is
misconstrued by some one who is more
hasty in passing judgment than in ex

At a recent meeting of eastern physi
cians there was some vary forcible talk
against the ; carelessness ia spreading
tuberculosis germs among people, Oi.e
physician declared that a "don't kiss the
baby" sign should be displayed in eyery
home, to be strictly observed by number
less aunties, cousins and callers who
'juat must', give the new-born being a
few smacks. Another, one of the dele
gates said the kissing babi' is as danger
oaa as the house-fly in scattering the
long disease, and he condemned the use
of carpets and the wearing of the long
skirts by women on the streets and in
public places. Still another doctor was
bitter against the filthy condition of the
Pullman cars, which are "next to cof
fins." Ex.
The harry and bustle, the worry and

of many studeat feet is heard no more, ,
and the echoes as they grow fainter and
fainter may be the last that Corvallis
will ever hear from some of thosa who
are leaving. The annual passing on of
the classes is in a way pathetic : their
constant going is a continual snapping
asunder of ties that to many mean more
than the word "commencement." Yet,
knowing that without this steady, on
ward march there is no progress, we
could not wish it otherwise, and as the
last senior of 'U7 waves a goodbye from
the the car window, Corvallis will forget
to mourn, and extend a cheery "good
bye." The 3Iodesiy of Women

l very common rauit witn a large
number of sheep barns Is poor arrange
ment both for the animals and feeding,
writes a Michigan breeder In National
Stockman and Farmer. The barn
should be so arranged as to afford the
most possible space for the flock and
at the same time supply easy facilities
for feeding. Stationary racks, unless
built against the siding, are inconven
ient and obstructive. Arrange the sheep

sharp corners and poorly lighted places,
as such are deleterious to the best in

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, whicn. 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

the aristocracy tolerate it without com

Impossible to flog anybody but the son
of a peer. And the other fact is that
public school boys have often felt a
special affection for the masters who
have punished them most.
In Westminster abbey stand side
by side the tombs of a master and his
pupil. The master was Dr. Busby,
who was head master of Westminster
school for so long a time as fifty-eight
years. Nobody ever flogged so many
boys as he. The pupil was the theo
logian, Dr. South. It is told I am
sure the story is true that when South
came as a small boy to Westminster
Busby greeted him with the ominous
words: "I see great talents in that
sulky little boy, and my rod shall
bring them out." If so, he was no
doubt as good as his word. But when
South lay upon his deathbed it was
his last prayer to be buried at his old
master's feet, and the master and the
pupil now rest side by side. Nine
