LINN AS A STARTER.
Corvallis G. T.:
Professor Horner returned from
Tangent this morning, where he gave
a lecture before the high school las!
evening, lie says that Miss liculah
1'ecler of this city is doing splendid
work in the school, where there are
.already three teachers employed.
There is talk of erecting a four-room
-grammar and high school building in
.Ihc near future. All over the county
he schools arc advancing under the
supervision of Superintendent Jack
son, who is raising the cduaclional
standard as rapidly as circumstances
will permit. .Many of the greatest
men ot Oregon were educated in good
old I. inn. Many others got their start
by teaching in that county, among
-whom were Senators Mitchell and
Dolph, who taught under certificates
issued hty Hon. lames K. Weather
for.i, president of the O. A. C. boar.d
of regents.

DO YOU?
Do you as a 'denincr.it wan I lo help
' nominate the 'democratic candidate for
president? Most certainly you do.
Mow often do we hear democrats say:
""Well, if 1 could have my choice I
would nominate A. It." Now, so far
as the state of Oregon is concerned,
..every democrat can express his prefer
ence at the primary election lo be held
mi the 19th of April. Of course he
must register or swear in his vote on
- flic day of the primary election. The
Salter could not be easily dune for in
uery'feiv precincts could six freehold
ers be found together to swear in a
totcr. The registration for the pri
mary election will close April 9th.
The very best time to register is now.
Do you know that one vote in Linn
county might determine who the dem
ocratic candidate for president should
'tie? Well, it is true that it might.
What an immense power to be excr-
. riseil by one man. For example: If
. ,.ii mjjnrily of the democrats of the
stale ot Oregon vote at the primary
election for Wilson then the Oregon
delegates to the National Democratic
Convention will vote for Wilson. Or
of a majority vote for Clark then the
. delegates will vote for Clark. Or so
. nl any other candidate. Who is your
, candidate?
Well, then register at once and be
v ready to vote for him at the primary,
" .The delegates from Oregon voting
for Speaker Clark or for Governor
Wilson might be the casting vote to
nominate one or the other. Do your
.only.

when cont'ulential friends may aid u
if liny know our al't'aits, but so oiten
-when we are so thoughtless as to
.snejk our whole miinl our neighbor i
just as careless in repeating and soon
annoyance and even trouble result?

The principals meet tonight a 8 in the
W. C. T. U. hall, and all adults are
called for general reheasal tomorrow,
Wednesday, night at 8 o'clock in same
place.
Last night's rehearsal showed good
results. The voices blend well and will
do justice to the beautiful opera.
For the benefit of singers who have
been prevented from attending the first
two rehersala, it has been decided to
receive more new voices Wednesday
night. Adult singers of any voice are
invited to join at that- time, especially
altos and tenors.
Although the opera as a whole is not
yet plain to the participants, all who
have interested themselves in it realize
that nothing similar to it has been at
tempted in Albany for many years.
The performances are to be Feb. 27
duel 'ii.
The ensemble of the juvenile ballet is
completed and includes over a hundred
children. This feature, as testified by
the people of Corvallis, is in no way at
an similar to tne ordinary children a
performances.
Nor is the opera as a whole at all
similar to some of the theatrical per-
lormances occasionally tiirust upon
tllf) public.
Great enthusiasm prevails, among
inose luentuieu wun it.
