H. M. CAKE. Hon. H. M- Cake, republican candidate for nomination as Uni ted States Senator will address the voters of Corvallis and Ben ton county at the court house on Tuesday evening, March 17th, at 7:30 o'clock. Mr. Cake is a very entertaining speaker and as this is the first speech of the cam naijrn we bespeak for him a good audience. To a direct vote of the DeoDle is now left the selec tion or election of a Senator. Go and hear him that you may vote intelligently. should not worry for anything. Whether, then, one be a pagan tri nr a devout christian he dis credits the founder of his school of philosophy, the philosophy of life, when he worries. Seeing the foolishness, the fu tility and harmfulness of worry everyone should avoid it. This may be done by becoming an non- est stoic or an earnest christian ; hnt if vou embrace the latter s DhilosoDhy, be watchful lest the former's practice present his as the better philosophy. NOT TO BE RESTRICTED. WHY WORRY? Of all foolish and hurtful things wnrrv should head the list. It is foolish because it never did and npver can do any good. It's m fluence is harmful, and only harmful, not only upon the one who worries, but upon all with whom he comes in contact. The thines over which men and women worry are mainly those which do not transpire. Thev exist only in imagination. They are untoward things which the imagination pictures as most imminent, and which the false logic of a disturbed mind declares cannot be avoided. The victim of chronic worry worries over things past, things present and things to come. This he does in spite of the truth that the cast is beyond recall, and however ill its legacies we must accent them. The future none can know, none foretell. We know no more of what may transDire an hour hence than of what may occur a thousand years hence. As to the present, that is but a little moment which comes freighted with joy or sor row and is cast before we can -i -. - 3 i . rasD ana"3Tnaeroianu wiiai -l brings. Whv should we worry ? The wnrlH ia ruled, even our destiny fixed' it may be, without aid or counsel of ours. A blind relent less Fate rules ani directs all things or a benign Providence does. If blind Fate rules, let us become fatalists. Let us accept and practice the philosophy of Zeno become stoics. Better so, more rational than to worry. It is ea-y. On board a ship at sea durinar a terrible storm which dis mayed the mariners Zeno ob served a swine quistly feeding "There," said he, ".s your true philosopher." Certainly the an imal was not worrying. Why should man, a rational being, worry ? But a beniurn Providencp, rath er than Fate may rule and direct all thinsrs. If so, He says to men come into harmony with me ' 'and I will guide thee continually. "Take no heed of to-morrow, what ye shall eat nor wherewithal ye shall be clothed." Here is a philosophy which teaches that men have, or easily may have divine care and guid-1 ance. All that is necessary for man to have such care is to place himself in harmony with the divine will and purpose. He has divine help and guidance even in this work to continual gui d ance. Surely if men are guided and their lives ordered continually by infinite wisdom, beneficence and love there is no cause, can be no cause for worry. Yet christians, believers in the christian philos ophy of life are those who worry most. It must be that such chris tians are not quite in earnest, do not accept and practice the ten ents of their own philosophy. NAfrhino- ran he more rational than the conclusion that a man I whose life is divinely guided Senator Penrose of Pennsylva nia, has introduced a bill which, should it become a law, would make the Postmaster-General a censor of the press of the whole country. It would empower the Pnct-nffice "Department to ex clude anv issue of any periodical from second-class mail privile ges," when, in the judgment of the Postmaster-General such is sue should not be distributed fchroucrh the mails. The law as it now stands, ex eludes ohscene. vicious and im moral matter of whatsoever class and provides for the apprehen sion. indictment, public trial ana, upon conviction, the severe pun ishment of- those who use trie mails for the distribution of such matter. There is no censorship, for the law specifies what shall be excluded. There are no Star- Chamber proceedings, for trials must be Dublicly conducted. It is true the present law does not exclude certain ultra-radical and pernicious publications, though it is probable that the mass of the American people wish such periodicals Jwere denied the u se of the mails. But since these are devoted to the dissemination of social and political theories, even though radically wrong and destructive they have been ac corded the privileges of the mails rather than that we should seem to restrict the freedom of the rnntation is established and all . - . there is to do is to grow tne ap ples and teed these clamoring markets. The market for apples has been iound, and the spot or. the plan where the best of ; them can be produced has been located, declares ine j onioai, -v. w j . It is Oregon, and her selling place is to the rich people of the whole world. It Is a circumstance to give pause to the owner of Oregon land. Is it an opportunity to be allnoprl to nass unseized? His revenue from grain growing is $io an acre; from apple growing hundreds an acre. It is worth for grain production, $30 to $40 per acre; once set to appies u in demand at several hundred. Wouldn't he better grow the ap- n a onH lr the man wuo cannoi jrrow them raise at least some of o the gram? MUSIC AND FEASTING. Splendid Program and General "Good Time at Beltefoun- tain Meeting. A BLACK EYE. : 1 AN OLD SOLDIER GONE. Has Joined Ranks on the Other Side William Wilcox. Dress. We will not consent that the press of the whole country shall he nlaced under censorship, espe cially when it easily might result in muzzling it, and preventing its full, free discussion of all pub lic questions and its fearless crit icism of parties and the conduct of public officials. Our determination to preserve a free press and free speech has caused us to condone much un seemly abuse of these rights But the American people justly reerard these rights as the Palla dium of their liberties and they will not consent to anything that may impair and ultimately de stroy those rights which are pre servative of all their rights Sometime we shall find an etfec tual way of dealing with those who abuse the freedom of the press and free speech but it will not be restricting the exercise of the rieht. Publishers of radical and per nicious theories of whatever sort must learn that the guaranteed exercise of a rig nt does not license the abuse of such right. The funeral of the late William R. Wilcox was held at the fam ily residence at 2 o'clock Tues dav afternoon, the services being conducted by Kev. u. tx. .ueecn of the M. E. church. The G. A.

With his parents he moved to Michigan when a small boy, and In i5 was mar ried to Miss Sopnrona w imams. In 1859 with his lamily, Mr. Wilcox crossed the plains to Cal ifornia and after residing there three years returned to Michigan, where his wite died soon aner. Tn i?6a deceased enlisted in the Civil War and served until the close of the conflict. In Octo ber, 1866, he was married to Miss Frances Hunt by whom he had eight children, five sons and three daughters, all of whom survive. One son resides in Denver, one daughter is iu Reardon, Wask., and two sons and two daughters reside in Nebraska, inewiaow and the ether sons are residents of Corvallis. Mr. Wilcox ioined the M. E. church about 30 years ago and - f lived a consistent cnnstian me until the call came. to come ap higher.

WILL BUILD HOUSE. Oregon Apples. Oregon Newtown apoles are bringing iS shillings a box in the London market. The best California Newtowns bring only 10 shillings a box. That is a wide margin in favor of Oregon. But there is a wider one in tne case of the Maine apples. The best ot tbem brintr but 10 snni- ings a barrel, or one third as much as the Oregon product. Here is food for reflection in Orecon. It is also food for con- gratulations. Nearly twice as much lor Oregon as tor Cali fornia aonles. and full three times ' as much as the best Maine apples means that Oregon apples are kins. Thev are the best, and so much the bt st that those able to pay fancy prices are determined to have them. They are sought fjr the. tables of the rich. Thev are demanded in the home., ot luxury, where prices are a minor consideration. They are lord ot the markets, and of the best mar kets in the wide world.

Thejse gentlemen, however, failed to enclose a certi fied check, as refiuired. and as their bids were far below any of the others, the ne;Kt lowest being over $3,000 it was considered that some mistake must have been made.

There are oeoole in this world who seem to be totally lacking not only respect tor law, out to have absolutely no sense of mercy or humanity. Such a person was abroad last Sunday and with gun and dogs chased a deer in defiance of law and order, and not only that, the deer was a poor old doe which came bounding over tne piowea field of a farm north ot town, one fore leg shattered and broken by a shot from the gun of the mer ciless hunter. ' The animal was poor and nnfit for use; it is the closed season for deer and does arc mnterted bv law at all times. all of wVuch makes the incident of more than passing importasce. Common decency, if nothing mere, should have stayed the arm of anv sportsman when such an animal appeared, but some peo nle anDear to lack this element.
