On page 40 of the Oregon State University catologuc will be found the law in respect to county scholarships. Eveiyonc should ex amine well into these "vquircmcnts lefore making application.

Church assisted by sonic of the members of the Christian Church will discourse sweet music for the benefit of the large crowd expected at Snowdcn Springs at the grand celebration. Mr. John McAllister and family w ill remove soon to Cottage Grove. ; How sorry we will be to see them go. The Misses McAllister have gained many friends during their short slay here who will deeply regret their dcpaV ure. The revival conducted by Rcy. E. Gittmgs and Rev. T. L. Jones is indeed a glorious meeting. All is progressing nicely with the exception of a few young scamps who have persisted in their "fun" until last evening when they concluded it best to no longer disturb. Prof. Thomas Condon who has been on a geological survey between Oregon and Call fornia, returned home Wednesday. A speci men obtained by him and left in our possession which was taken from i conglomerate mass now formed into solid rock goes to prove that the country which now comprises Oregon was at one time in complete inundation or in other wo4ds formed the bed of the sea. The speci men is a petrified shell perfect in contour from which the fish had not escaped previous to petrifaction. Around the fish il is filled with sand also now formed into rock, but looking as fresh as if but placed there yesterday. In one place on the mountain side on a previous trip Prof. Condon discovered an entire acre of dif ferent shells, imbedded in sandstone and con glomeration. Surely Oregon affords great study and ofl'cis great inducements to gcolo-eists- Oksim. CotrH Circus. From fhe St. Louis Dispatch we learn that this show began its exhibitions in that city on May 4th, and hundreds could not find sitting room. If Mr. Cole would come this way U)iis season he would find a lanjc patronane? Many of our citizens would like to see a first class circus and menagerie. Below we give an extract from the Tost I lispatch. "The performance last night was, taken altogether, the best first class performance which has been given here. There was scarcely a hitch, and all the important acts went smoothly and with fine effect. Mr. Cole has kept every promise he made, and in the two hours and a half occupied by the show the finest aggregating of attractions that has been seen here was given. Instead of doing with as little as possible Mr. Cole gives more than any one could possibly expect for the price of admission. In the big tent one good thing after another is done and there is not on tfie entire programme an act or a feature which may be called weak or poor. All arc excel lent, and some are wonderfully fine, exceed ing all previous efforts. There are two large rings in which acts arc given simultaneously, and a center stage. The spectacular pageant at the' opening exhibits fine horses, suberb. male and female equestrians, rich costumes and caparisons, making a gorgeous sight. Following the pageant there are splendid exhibitions of trained horses of educated stal lions by T. B. Mclntyre and Ernest Cooke. The baltoutc leaping displayed some wonder ful work, particularly by John Worland, who accomplished a double somersalt over, the backs of all the elephants. Frederick Wat j son's leaping dogs was an attractive feature, the most wonderful part of which was the dog "Hero,'' thatturned flip-flaps back and for ward like a tqfiined arobat. 1 Smjnr Pine Hons. 1 The Rftif.w is always anxiously looked lor anil welcome.

We are sorry that we are soon to lose some of its most useful members, Mr. Ed. Weekly goes to Eastern Oregon and Mr. Welters to Looking Glass. We are still hoping that a minister will come and preach lor us we do not know o aDy place w here me is more needed than in this community. Anomymovs A. XEPVBLIC THAT FEARS ITSELF CAXA'OT Siritrit E. A few days ago the French Government saw fit to expel from its territory to Scions of the Houses of Orleans Bourbon and Bone parte. The decree was a perpetual exile and for what? Simply because the Count of Taris and his sons were born of the Orleans Bour bon House and Jerome aud his son, Victor Boneparte were related to the great Napoleon Boneparte. As a citizen of a great and wise Republic we look upon this action as fraught w ith distress lo France. The Count of Paris was known as the most inoffensive and forgiv ing mar. that lived w ithin the province of the Seine., His sons were quiet, good, honorable citizens of France. There was no cause of fear from them. Of Jerome Boneparte there could be no concern whatever. He iscssenti ally a literary man and under the name of "Plon Plon," has written much that is inter esting. He was without aspiration. As for his son, Victor il is different. He is disposed to be aggressive. Under the will of young Napoleon, who died in the English Service fighting the Zulus, he was nominated suc cessor to the Imperial throne of France. He believes that he is entitled to it and he enjoy his expulsion because of the attention it invites, His farewell was characteristic of the Great Napoleon. It sounds much like the voice of Cataline "I go but lo return." The Napoleon or Boneparte House is not legitimate as that of the Count of Paris but it is far more popular In no house or hut in France outside Paris is there the absence of the likeness of Napo leon the Great. His picture is almost worship ed. With this cause in the hands of the phcky Victar it is not improbable he will return again and with England that overthrew his great uncle backing him will remain until France ceases to be a nominal Republic. As great as might have been Jeff. Davis' offenses the Republic of the United States could not aftcrd-to punish him and prevent it its philoso phers like Horace Greely and Gcrnt Smith rank abolitionists but devoted patriots rushed lorword to give him bail and liberty. France has been unwise and in a few years will find that her improvident fright will be fraught with disgrace, dissolution and decay. In a few years Bismark and Gladstone will pass away and then there will be a rcadjugdmcnt all around and woe to the Republic that fears itself. II OX. J) A VID It A IIS. In the death of Judge Davis, of Illinois, who breathed his last on Saturday morning, at his home in Bloomington, Illinois, another of the old school politicians of the country has passed away. His death was not unexpected. Several weeks ago he was reported to be seri ously ill with a carbuncle, and when first at tacked he expressed grave apprehensions as to the result. He was a native of Maryland, and a little over seventy-one years old. He was one of the early settlers in Illinois, locating in Bloomington in 1836. He was a Whig in politics in his earlier years, but his political life was mainly confined to holding judicial posi tions, lie was made Judge of the Supreme Court by President Lincoln, the appointment being purely a personal one on the part of the President, who had the greatest confidence in Judgo Davis's integrity and political conserva tism. Judge Davis was elected to the United Slates Senate in 1877 by a political combina tion which, it was afterwards asserted, was a Republican trick in order not to have him chosen as a member ol the Electoral Commis sion, as it was generally conceded he would be if he remain on the Supreme bench. The Judge never became a very active Senator, though at one time he filled the position of President of the Senate and cx-officio Vice President. He generally voted with the Democrats, though occasionally he acted with the Republicans., He always seems to have regarded himself as a kind of conservative influence necessary to preserve the equipoise between the partisans of both organizations, ami usually did his .best to hold things level. He was immensely wealthy made so by fortunate investments in early lite in Chicago and other Illinois real estate. lie w as one ol the largest landholders in the state, lie leaves a wife comparatively young in years, whom he married a short time belore he retired from the Senate. News. A tt'isa ItcforiH. The habit ol administering quinine in pow erful doses, as an antidote to malarial maladies, was once dangerously common. Happily this practice has undergone a wide reform. Not only the public, but professional men have adopted, not wholly, of course, but largely, Hosteller's Stomach Bitters as a safe botanic substitute for the pernicious alkaloid. The consequences of this change are most import ant. Now fever and ague sufferers arc cured formerly their complaints were only for the lime relieved, or half cured the remedy event ually failing to produce any appreciable effect, except the doses were increased. A course o the Bitters persistently followed, breaks up the worst attacks and prevents their return. The evidence in favor of this sterling specific anj household medicine is Of no ambiguous charac ter, but positive and satisfactory, and the sources whence it proceeds arc very numerous. - Hi letter Items. We are going to have an exhibition. Our school will close in two weeks. The farmers are busy making hay. Blackberries are ripening nicely. Our Sunday school is progressing with Mr. Sol.

Johnnie Rice ran off of "Fatal Grade" last Sunday with a hack full of young ladies. No one was hurt, however. It was really amus ing to a philosopher to sec how little attrac tion there was lor them till they reached a level plane. Our school is quite a success. Miss Case- beer, our teacher is universally liked. Sue will have finished a four months school in two weeks. We never have any trouble with our teachers. Our uncle "Hard to Please" died a short time ago and his wife, "Envy" and her oldest daughter, "Jealousy," and all the children that knew more than the teachers can know after six years hard study, have gone to Congress, I think, I do not know exactly where they moved to but w c are glad they have left. M. ; Have You Taken S. L. R.? Then can you do good by communicating to others an unfailing cure for Dyspepsia, Consti pation, Headache, Biliousness and Kidney af fections.

June 10th, 18S6. Mr. David S. West, dear Sir. I am now trying to make up a party lo move to your state, and would be glad to get all the information about your portion that you can give me. I guess two of the party will be out d urine the summer to look at the coun try. We do not intend to have any one with us except those who have some means. Those who will be some advantage to a coun try, instead of a drawback. The individual capital represented will not be very large, but every family will be self sustaining. They will have from $3000 lo $30,000. Will be glad to hear from you. Respectfully. II. A. Rogers. I7e Xejet Legislature.

The:c rates can be obtained at the Com pany's Station in Corvallis upon presentation of proper certificates for which apply to your Post Commander. Place your name on file as soon as you determine to go as there will be a rush at the last moment. ERRATA. Our proof in last issue was not as perfect as it might have been. When in our leader wc wrote that the President had appointed in Oregon a few untainted Democrats to barely remunerative offices, the word "basely" takes the place of "barely." This was not right, no good Democrat ever accepted anything that was base. We also used a Latin quotation which translated into English meant "to go slow in order to make speed." When it ap peared in the paper nobody could determine whether it was Greek, Latin or Sanscrit and in fact it is no manner of language wliateveri We are glad of this mistake, for no intelligent writer editing a paper to be read by English speaking people ought ever to use any other language. It is rich enough to supply every reasonable demand and really contains more words than the average editor comprehends. In our local notice of the arrival of Mrs. Dr. Matthews of Louisville Kentucky, we are made to say that she was the mother of Dr. Graham of this City whereas in truth and fact she is the mother of Mrs. Graham. We are glad of this mistake also, because it gives us an opiwtunity to say that Mrs. Matthews is still with us, is delighted with our climate and is improving in health. What a blessing- it is to have an opportunity to correct mistakes. . , The Most stfreeabte.

June 2lst 1SS6. The summary disposal of the tariff bill dur ing the past week is taken by many to indicate that the Congressional session w ill be of shorter duration than w as supposed a week ago. But it is not impossible that the tariff bill may ctime up again. It would be strange indeed if the forty or fifty Congressional Boanerges who have spent both time and money in the composition and purchase of speeches will be content to carry this pent up undelivered eloquence; but, unless the pent up fjlood of tariff talk shall be let loose in the halls of Congress, the session will probably bo shortened by from two to three weeks. The weather has been exceed ingly warm, and members and senators aic very anxious to get away from the city. The Senate is not disposed to give the Presi dent any rest but keeps sending up to him bills by the basketful, for his examination and ap proval. Saturday when he went to bed he had on his table 54 bills, the constitutional lime for his examination of which expires on Mon day, and he has not looked at one of them. There is another lot embracing as many more that will become law s on Tuesday unless he vetoes them, and still more on Wednesday, ami it is scarcely possible for him to read their text. Thursday and Friday the Senate passed 212 bills, about half of which have gone through the House, and they w ill be dumped on his table to-morrow. Some ol these bills are saved by their numbers. They would cer tamly be vetoed if the Prcsi.lent had time to examine them. There is still considerable talk in political circles about changes in the Cabinet. There is a rumor, I give it for what it is worth, that Don M. Dickinson, of Mich,, is to Succeed to the place of Attorney General Garbjnd. It is thought that the recent visit to the 'country of Hon. Robt. M. McLane, our minister to France, if connected with the Secretaryship ol the Treasury Department, and that if, when Secretary Manning returns, he is compelled to tender his final resignation, Mr. McLane may be his successor. The Treasury Department j is very ably managed at present by Assistant Secretaiy Fairchild who is carrying out many reforms that were commenced by Secretary Manning. The clerical force in the Sixth Au ditor's Division of this department has been much reduced and there will be a still larger reduction on the first of July. It was at first intended to allow the dismissed clerks the fif teen days due them up to the first ultimo, but then it was thought that this time would be occupied in efforts for reinstatement, so, in or der to prevent all annoyance and lother, the dismissals and appointments ol successors will be made on the same date. The Civil Service Commission has furnished a list of names w ith w hich to fill the vacancies that will exist in the office on the first of July, so that the Auditor will be able to say to all those seeking rein statement, that the vacancies have already been filled. The number to be dismissed is thought lo be twenty-six at present to w hich number more or less will probably be added by the expiration of the month. Since Mr. McConvillc has been the Sixth Auditor, there have been upward ol eighty dis charges in his office and the twenty-six or more yet lobe made will bring the total up to over one hundred and six a third of the cn tire force. This is by far the best record of dismissals yet made in the department. Last week Mr. ftoar, of Mass. submitted a resolution proposing a constitutional amend ment to provide, that the term of the Presi dents office and of the next Congress shall be prolonged until the last Tuesday of April 1SS9 al midday; the Senators whose present terms would otherwise expire on March 4th, 1S89 shall continue in office until noon of the last Tuesday in April succeeding such expiration. The last Tuesday of April shall therefore be substituted for the 4th of March as the be ginning and ending of ihe official lerm of the Prc-ident, Vice President, Senators and Rep resentatives in Congress. The most noteworthy social events during the past week were the two receptions given by the President and his wife, the first being a card reception to the army, navy, diplo matic and other officials, the last to the general public on Friday evening, which was proba bly the largest reception ever held at the White House. No other announcement was made than the one in the daily papers and in these the hours named were from nine till eleven, but at that hour there was such a line of eager faces anxious to shake hands wilh the President and his bride, that Mr. Cleveland sent word that he wou'd see them all if it look until daybreak. This was the last reception Mrs. Cleveland will hold until the opening of the next season and until then she will be at home only to sec her personal friends. Dentil of a Rhinoceros. New York, June 27. Bombay, the $5,000 rhinoceros that arrived in this city a week ago died suddenly last night at 8 o'clock, "in the pen al central park. A post mortem examina tion w ill be made. He had not yet been paid for, and had not been approved by the park commissioners, Consequently the loss will not fall upon the city, but on Thompson the im porter. The dead rhinoceros, Bombay, weighed two and one-half tons. Three cle phants this morning dragged the carcass from the iron cage where it lay, and onlo the truck which carried it to a retired spot where the post mortem was held. The brute died of pneumonia. The skeleton and stuffed hide will le placed in the museum ol natural history. OAK LA XI ITEMS. Wild blackberries are getting plentiful. Peter McGregor returned home Saturday. Robt.

Dear Friend: You will no doubt be glad to hear from me and other excursionists who arrived at this place only a few days ago. You know I exjected-to sail on the steamer "Dem ocrat" from Roseburg on June 8th but owing to a misunderstanding with parties in Multno mah county, the aforesaid vessel did not sail and as I was ticketed "through'' and fare paid there was no use "kicking" so I had to "change loats," I tell you it was ''agin" thegrain, not so much against the boat, but the company I was forced to keep. There was T. Cornelius Judge Waldo, Krcwson. Metz, and others whi insisted on going in the same stale room w' a me, I tell you il w as mighty hard tobunkVith a man who never had a shirt washed, but it w as so decreed and Thomas was my chum. You know there is a large immigration from Oregon here this year, every county in the state Is represented, the cabin passengers were my self, Col. Cornelius, N. L. Butler, Judge Wal do, Krcwson, Waite, Arrington, Burnett and Davis and Stecre passengers loo numerous to mention, I can only recall the names of Gus Taylor, John Stearns, Tobias, Lamb, Sacry, Tliiel and Shelly, wc had a very rough voyage and a great deal of sicknesa aboard you ought have been on hand. The third day out we picked up the crew of the "steamer Prohibi tion" who had been wrecked off the coast of Intemperance near the Island of. "Ruin" and a sorrier set you never did sec. Their com-" mander, I louston, w as lost and second mate, W" F. Owens was in command. Third mate Jas. Chenowclh was in a deplorable condition. The Stewardess, Miss Annie Kent was the only one in whom there is any hope of future success; The cargo was saved, it consisted c 1700 cases of soda water, 2700 kegs ol Mil waukee queen-charlotte and four cases of Hos tettets Bitters. Owens insisted that the cargo should lie saved and Chenoweth said the bit ters were private property. We steamed into port and Owens was sm-prised that no band met us. He proposed to raise means to de fray expenses and proceeded lo bill the town for "ThcLtltlc Brow n Jug" for 1' -ighls only. Metz is canvassing the to that popular work "What I know about Politics" while Shelly has started a Soda fountain, Stearns is retailing Geo. Jones mineral water on 4th street, G. W.
