Formu- las copyrighted January 14th, 1890, by W. H. Brown, Entomologist, P. O. Box, 2237, San Francisco, Calif. Mention this paper. Newport, Or., Feb. 12. (To the Editor.) The correspondent from Eugene signing himself "Willamette Valley" says Her- mann claims credit for every- thing, etc. Is there any reason why he should not? Does not all bills appropriating money of J necessity have to originate in the house? Was there any other member in the house from Ore- gon siuce 1885, but Binger Her- mann? Mr. Ellis has been there to participate in the appropria- tion bill of 1894.. Now, for the purpose of economy in time and space, I will take some (not all) of the most important river and harbor measures, giving all that has been appropriated in each before 1886, the year Hermann commenced his work for the state, and I will except the year 1894, when we had two members of congress, and we shall be able to see how much Oregon owes to Binger Hermann's tact and abil- ity in the house, and to or Dolph and Senator Mitchell in the senate, since, and includ- ing the year 1886: Coquillo Kiver and Bar Before 1886 they had $ 29,999 63 After 1886 they had 125,000 00 Mouth of Columbia river Before 1886 they had ? 100,000 00 After 1886 they had 1,587,750 00 Upper Willamette river Before 1886 they had $54.xsx 95 After x886 they had 30,000 00 - Cascade Locks Before 1886 they had $ 950,000 00 After 1883 they had 1,487,903 00 Coos Bay Before 1886 they had 9 105,642 28 After 1886 they had ; 421,107 72 Siu'slaw after 1886 95,000 00 Yaquina Bay Before 1886 they had - $ 160,000 00 Alter 1886 they had 475,000 00 Compare the work of all the representatives and senators Ore- gon ever had previous to the year 1886, and see the result. Before 1886 Oregon had received on these several public works the total sum of $1,399,793.92, while during the ten years (not includ- ing the year 1894) of Hermann's service in the house, and or Dolph and Senator Mitchell in the senate, we have the mag- nificent sum of $4,126,760.72, or to be plainer, $2,720,900.00 more than the combined efforts of all previous representation in both houses were able to secure for us. Nearly three times as much money has been appropri- ated for Oregon since and includ- ing 1886 as there was altogether before that date I doubt very much if half the people in the state ftilly understand the full extent and benefit Oregon has de- rived from the active, intelligent and efficient labor of our delega- tion. W. V. is informed that Mr. Hermann did not iurnish these, or any other figures; they are correct, howeyer, and I chal- lenge W. V., or any one else .to disprove their correctness. They are taken from the official records of the war department. If Mr. Hermann entered the ring by telegram, against the caucus nom- inee, it was unwise, but there are many republican politicians who did the same thing in person, and would like to be recognized as Hermann's successor. I said some of these appropriations were raised in the senate by or Dolph and Senator Mitchell's influence. I shall try and obtain the exact amounts, and give it to the public later, as it is no part of my intention to deny full credit where it is due our public servants. The first consideration with me is " the best interest of the state; second, the ambition of my political friends. Who- ever receives the nomination at Albany will be heartily support- ed by R. A. B.

Corvallis, Feb. 14, '96. Editor Gazette: As we approach a general elec tion the mind naturally reverts to the cause of, and necessity for legislation, the character of which determines our political affilia- tion. We may suppose that a life- long republican, or a life-lon- g democrat, will vote the party ticket without question, the masses leaving it to party lead- ers to frame the platforms, and indicate the attitude of their several parties toward the nation- al and local issues which have to be met. This confines the treatment of national and local issues to com- paratively a few persons in each party. At this point, it seems to me, there is a great danger that self-intere- st may be brought in contact with public interests, and whenever this occurs public inter- ests are in danger. There are incorruptible men, and there are others who can. be" reached through their cupidity or ambi- tion. It is not often that men are found who cannot be per- suaded that things which are black are not black but only are not quite pure white, and that, it being impossible to obtain pure white, the public interest demands taking something not quite purely white. Such men often, ignorantly, or carelessly, or blindly, accept . what they think is not pure white, but the best they think they can get in the public interests, and in reali- ty get the blackest kind of cor- ruption through legislation, in exchange for their birthright, a freeman's yote. The principal methods by which the sovereign voters of a free country can protect them- selves against this danger, are to support at the head of their par- ties only such men as those who are wise and honest enough to avoid the "dangers of corruption or ignorance; and this is well-nig- h impossible because men go to the front of their own volition and not as a choice of the peo- ple, and the unerring tendency of human nature is as well defined in men of great political energy, as it is in men whose energy is expended in other fields of labor, and we know the pre-- , ponderance inclines to self-int- er est; besides political methods, as too often practiced, gives an impetus to the natural tendency that way owing to the deceit, duplicity and corruption attend- ant on professional political work. Or the voters must themselves, comprehend the effect of legisla- tion and elect men to legislative office who will support the plat- forms they are elected upon, and themselves prepare those plat- forms and see that they contain the principles which will protect the interests of all the people and not simply some favored class who have been fortunate, or dis- honest enough to command the influences which can mould a platform in their interests alone. It is plain that no class of inter- ests can have a platform framed to protect themselves regardless of the interests of all the people, unless the framers of the platform acquiesce in their desires and vote in state and national conven- tions to frame their platforms that way. We find independent party journals all "over the land protesting against "ring" ma- chinery. Perhaps there are political organizations existing now, and 'that there have been such in the past, which are free . 'infmences in the rr of platform utterances. I will not venture to say that all political organizations are not free from it for my experience has been very limited. But one does not have to actually pass through a convention to under- stand where the platform of a free and self-governi- ng people has been moulded in, or modified to meet the interests of persons, or classes of persons who derive great pecuniary benefit from the legislation, resulting from the election of men who make laws in harmony with such platforms. Whenever a party platform is thus framed to protect class inter- ests, regardless of the rights of all the people, and legislation results therefrom which carries out the intents of such platforms, then the free citizens of America, who do not happen to fall within the protected class, are far from enjoying the inalienable rights of freeborn American citizens. At present there are four polit- ical parties in this nation enter- ing into the discussion of what The Gazette Pub'isiiiig Co. fi. W. JOHNSON,- - Uusiit- - Manager.

There is an organized effort afoot to down Mitchell. and Her- mann in Benton county. Pre- posterous as the idea, may seem to those who are aware or the overwhelming sentiment in fa- vor of both those gentlemen, the scheme is not a:i impossible one. It can only safely be frus- trated by determined and intelli gent actions of republican voters lat the primaries. Send no Idoiibtlul delegate to the county invention. The people are of- - en misrepresented not irom heir lack of intelligence, butbe- - ause of their carelessness. It not too early now to begin dis- - ussing the proper men to repre sent your precinct in the conven- - on. It is not necessary at this time explain why Benton county Ivors benator Mitchell ; and pngressmau Hermann. It is hough that it does so. What now needed is care that the bsires of the vast majority be bt thwarted by the trickery of Inning politicians. Wire pull- - s have a variety of means for -- Jcomplishing their ends. They are not narapesed by conscienti- ous scruples. Success is their heaven and failure their hell. They are in politics for revenue only. To manipulate the party machinery against the party's own candidates is '. to them but the most refreshing joke. A few Benton county opponents of Mitchell and Hermann are sim ply puppets controlled by shrewd er and more powerlul men They, however, have their little tncks and will work them for all they are worth. They will attempt to trade the .nominations for county offices for the delega tions to the congressional and state conventions. They are not asleep. It is . very probable, however, that they will discover that the republican voters are pretty early risers themselves. Voters are discussing the prospects for a lively political campaign this spring. Two years ago there was a general expres- sion in favor of a clean, harmo- nious campaign, devoid of un pleasantness. Glee clubs were organized and we had some nice music, recitations and speeches, and everything gave evidence of brotherly love. Republicans and democrats gazed at each other with affectionate eyes and all went merry as a Philomath dance until the canvass fairly opened. Then the music and speaking still continued, but they were minor notes in the grand chorus. Republicans, democrats and pop- ulists were on the rounds with large sized hammers and ringing fire bells, The search light of history was turned on the darkest and furtherest corner of every candidate's character, and there was a general scramble for mud. There is a general desire for a decent campaign in the county during the coming election, and it is possible we shall enjoy that luxury, but it will be a safer proposition to "copper" than to play "straight up." The signs of the times point to a real live, interesting campaign. The only argument that those who propose to turn Mr. Her- mann down, can use, is that he did not get the chairmanship of a committee. It is very flimsy thread, and one that should not for a moment prevail in the minds of considerate people. Those who wish to succeed him would find it would take them many a day to get as far up the ladder as Mr. Hermann is at the present time. Transcript. The Times, touched to the quick by our casual mention of its "cuckoo" propensities, sneers at the Gazette, asserting that it reprints from the Times. The charge is a master study in the art of revenge. The accusation that the Gazette relies upon such source for its information, is designedly cruel. Money to Loan. I have money to loan on improved farm ands in Benton and Linn counties, in any sums of from 500 up to $10,000, on very fa vorable terms. For particulars and blank applications write to C. G. Burkuart, American Gattiolics and the A. P. A. By Patrick Henry Winston.

Dolph Farley is spoken of by some as our next assessor. Will you be kind enough to al- low space in your paper for a few items. Farmers are faking advantage of the nice weather by commenc- ing to plow. Preacher Lee ought to be proud of the new fence built in front of the parsonage. The A. P.

Thompson has been troubled with sore eyes, caused by useing some kind of medi- cine for the headache, but was better at last report. There has been a subscription paper in circulation here for the purpose of building a flouring mill at Monroe. We need a mill here and also a railroad. Albert Aloerson and Miss Millie Stevenson called on the justice of tha' peace. J. T. Carpenter, who made them man and wife on short, notice, and they went on their way rejoicing. We wish them much joy and happiness, with prosperity, through life. Mr. Short informs us that R. W. Nickles, who lives four miles southwest of Monroe, has found a silver ledge on his farm that as- says away up in the hundreds. Worfc will begin on t!ie ledge in a few days. If it proves to be a bonanza it will surely be a boom to Monroe. Mr. Nickles was seen since Mr. Short was in and he says he has had some of the rock assayed and it is rich in silver. Greenback. A PEN PICTURE OF CALIFORNIA. Lou Akgei.cs, Cal., Feb. 13, 1896. E Gazbttk: With your permission, we will give your miny readers a slight account of our doings and whereabouts, since leaving our own beautiful little city, January 27th, by the popular Yaquina route for San Francisco This was our first trip over the O. C. & E. under the present management, and we note with pleasure the many and substantial im- provements. After two days sight seeing at Newport, and laying in an abundance of ro;k oysters, wc turned south on board the splendid steamer Farallon, Capt. Kobarts in command, a pleasant and courteous gentle' mm. In all our travels, we have never met with more pleasant and courteous officers and crews than 'on the Farallon. Every thing possible was dona for our comfort and pleasure. Capt. Kobarts informed us his last trip north was made in forty-tw- o hours from dock to dock. We entered the golden gate Saturday, and what a gate it is, Well may Sdn Francisco be proud of her harbor. Sunday we turned our faces sonth for Los Angeles, where we arrived early Monday morning, to tho joy of our friends. It seems almost incredible tbe progress this city has made during the last few years Sinco '92, when we visited here, thousands ot modern residences and miles of street car lines have been added to the city. The change is so complete that my wife could not find her former home, after an absence of only three years. Whsre there was then only a few scattering houses, we found it built up almost solidly with fine res- idences, and solid, substantial business blocks. Property here that was ottered to me at $70 per front foot is now held at $500. At that time thero were no oil wells in exis- tence. Now the first of tho present month reports has 375 in the field with a daily out- put of 2,200 barrels of 31 gallons. About 1,500 barrels of this is used inside the ci ty, fie remainder is shipped mostly to San Francisco.. Thero is activity in the oil busi- ness. Wages are good, $2.00 to $2.50 per day. But, mark you, there are thousands of moi here seeking etnploj-mcn- t and the chi'icss for gettiiis it are nominally no btt- - piffST-ciifls- s pwrifoG 3 Unsurpassed in Quality, Style, and Finish. n? en E IIP yJE print everything in any color, in all shapes, in any quantity, on any quality of paper, and with any style of type desired.

The Prohibition Party, whichwas founded on a great moralquestion, is found advocating:The suppression of the traffic inliquors; the right of women tovote; an increase in the volumeof money, to be gold, silver andpaper, to be issued by the gov-ernment only, and so arrangedthat 110 individual or corporationcan make any money out of it;that tariff should be levied onlyagainst foreign governments levy-ing tariff against our products,revenues being only incidental ;

taxes to be raised on what peoplepossess instead of on what theyconsume; railroads, etc., to berun by the government; immi-

Newport, Or., Feb. 12. (Tothe Editor.) The correspondentfrom Eugene signing himself"Willamette Valley" says Her-mann claims credit for every-thing, etc. Is there any reasonwhy he should not? Does not allbills appropriating money of J

necessity have to originate in thehouse? Was there any othermember in the house from Ore-

gon siuce 1885, but Binger Her-mann? Mr. Ellis has been thereto participate in the appropria-tion bill of 1894.. Now, for thepurpose of economy in time andspace, I will take some (not all)of the most important river andharbor measures, giving all thathas been appropriated in eachbefore 1886, the year Hermanncommenced his work for the state,and I will except the year 1894,when we had two members ofcongress, and we shall be able tosee how much Oregon owes toBinger Hermann's tact and abil-

ity in the house, and to or

Compare the work of all therepresentatives and senators Ore-

gon ever had previous to the year1886, and see the result. Before1886 Oregon had received onthese several public works thetotal sum of $1,399,793.92, whileduring the ten years (not includ-ing the year 1894) of Hermann'sservice in the house, and or

Dolph and Senator Mitchellin the senate, we have the mag-nificent sum of $4,126,760.72,or to be plainer, $2,720,900.00more than the combined effortsof all previous representation inboth houses were able to securefor us. Nearly three times asmuch money has been appropri-ated for Oregon since and includ-ing 1886 as there was altogetherbefore that date I doubt verymuch if half the people in thestate ftilly understand the fullextent and benefit Oregon has de-

rived from the active, intelligentand efficient labor of our delega-tion. W. V. is informed thatMr. Hermann did not iurnishthese, or any other figures; theyare correct, howeyer, and I chal-

lenge W. V., or any one else .to

disprove their correctness. Theyare taken from the official recordsof the war department. If Mr.Hermann entered the ring bytelegram, against the caucus nom-

inee, it was unwise, but there aremany republican politicians whodid the same thing in person, andwould like to be recognized asHermann's successor. I saidsome of these appropriations wereraised in the senate by or

Dolph and Senator Mitchell'sinfluence. I shall try and obtainthe exact amounts, and give it tothe public later, as it is no partof my intention to deny fullcredit where it is due our publicservants. The first considerationwith me is " the best interest ofthe state; second, the ambitionof my political friends. Who-ever receives the nomination atAlbany will be heartily support-ed by R. A. B.

Parties and Politicians Arraig-nedA Plea for Clean

Methods.

Corvallis, Feb. 14, '96.Editor Gazette:

As we approach a general election the mind naturally revertsto the cause of, and necessity forlegislation, the character of whichdetermines our political affilia-tion.

We may suppose that a life-

long republican, or a life-lon- g

democrat, will vote the partyticket without question, themasses leaving it to party lead-ers to frame the platforms, andindicate the attitude of theirseveral parties toward the nation-al and local issues which have tobe met.

This confines the treatment ofnational and local issues to com-

paratively a few persons in eachparty. At this point, it seems tome, there is a great danger thatself-intere- st may be brought incontact with public interests, andwhenever this occurs public inter-ests are in danger. There areincorruptible men, and there areothers who can. be" reachedthrough their cupidity or ambi-tion. It is not often that menare found who cannot be per-suaded that things which areblack are not black but only arenot quite pure white, and that,it being impossible to obtainpure white, the public interestdemands taking something notquite purely white. Such menoften, ignorantly, or carelessly,or blindly, accept . what theythink is not pure white, but thebest they think they can get inthe public interests, and in reali-

ty get the blackest kind of cor-

ruption through legislation, inexchange for their birthright, afreeman's yote.

The principal methods bywhich the sovereign voters of afree country can protect them-selves against this danger, are tosupport at the head of their par-ties only such men as those whoare wise and honest enough toavoid the "dangers of corruptionor ignorance; and this is well-nig- h

impossible because men goto the front of their own volitionand not as a choice of the peo-ple, and the unerring tendencyof human nature is as welldefined in men of great politicalenergy, as it is in men whoseenergy is expended in other fieldsof labor, and we know the pre-- ,ponderance inclines to self-int- er

est; besides political methods, astoo often practiced, gives animpetus to the natural tendencythat way owing to the deceit,duplicity and corruption attend-ant on professional political work.Or the voters must themselves,comprehend the effect of legisla-tion and elect men to legislativeoffice who will support the plat-forms they are elected upon, andthemselves prepare those plat-forms and see that they containthe principles which will protectthe interests of all the people andnot simply some favored classwho have been fortunate, or dis-honest enough to command theinfluences which can mould aplatform in their interests alone.

It is plain that no class of inter-ests can have a platform framedto protect themselves regardlessof the interests of all the people,unless the framers of the platformacquiesce in their desires andvote in state and national conven-tions to frame their platformsthat way. We find independentparty journals all "over the landprotesting against "ring" ma-

chinery. Perhaps there arepolitical organizations existingnow, and 'that there have beensuch in the past, which are free

. 'infmences in therr of platform utterances.I will not venture to say that allpolitical organizations are notfree from it for my experiencehas been very limited. But onedoes not have to actually passthrough a convention to under-stand where the platform of a freeand self-governi- ng people hasbeen moulded in, or modified tomeet the interests of persons, orclasses of persons who derivegreat pecuniary benefit from thelegislation, resulting from theelection of men who make lawsin harmony with such platforms.Whenever a party platform isthus framed to protect class inter-ests, regardless of the rights ofall the people, and legislationresults therefrom which carriesout the intents of such platforms,then the free citizens of America,who do not happen to fall withinthe protected class, are far fromenjoying the inalienable rightsof freeborn American citizens.

At present there are four polit-ical parties in this nation enter-

ing into the discussion of what

NOT AN IDLE SCARE.

There is an organized effortafoot to down Mitchell. and Her-mann in Benton county. Pre-

posterous as the idea, may seemto those who are aware or theoverwhelming sentiment in fa-

vor of both those gentlemen,the scheme is not a:i impossibleone. It can only safely be frus-trated by determined and intelligent actions of republican voterslat the primaries. Send noIdoiibtlul delegate to the county

invention. The people are of--

en misrepresented not iromheir lack of intelligence, butbe- -

ause of their carelessness. Itnot too early now to begin dis- -

ussing the proper men to represent your precinct in the conven- -

on.It is not necessary at this timeexplain why Benton county

Ivors benator Mitchell ; andpngressmau Hermann. It ishough that it does so. What

now needed is care that thebsires of the vast majority bebt thwarted by the trickery ofInning politicians. Wire pull- -s have a variety of means for

--Jcomplishing their ends. Theyare not narapesed by conscienti-ous scruples. Success is theirheaven and failure their hell.They are in politics for revenueonly. To manipulate the partymachinery against the party'sown candidates is '. to them butthe most refreshing joke. A fewBenton county opponents ofMitchell and Hermann are simply puppets controlled by shrewder and more powerlul menThey, however, have their littletncks and will work them forall they are worth. They willattempt to trade the .nominationsfor county offices for the delegations to the congressional andstate conventions. They arenot asleep. It is . very probable,however, that they will discoverthat the republican voters arepretty early risers themselves.

Voters are discussing theprospects for a lively politicalcampaign this spring. Two yearsago there was a general expres-sion in favor of a clean, harmo-nious campaign, devoid of unpleasantness. Glee clubs wereorganized and we had some nicemusic, recitations and speeches,and everything gave evidence ofbrotherly love. Republicans anddemocrats gazed at each otherwith affectionate eyes and allwent merry as a Philomath dance

until the canvass fairly opened.Then the music and speakingstill continued, but they wereminor notes in the grand chorus.Republicans, democrats and pop-ulists were on the rounds withlarge sized hammers and ringingfire bells, The search light ofhistory was turned on the darkestand furtherest corner of everycandidate's character, and therewas a general scramble for mud.There is a general desire for adecent campaign in the countyduring the coming election, andit is possible we shall enjoy thatluxury, but it will be a saferproposition to "copper" than toplay "straight up." The signsof the times point to a real live,interesting campaign.

The only argument that thosewho propose to turn Mr. Her-mann down, can use, is that hedid not get the chairmanship ofa committee. It is very flimsythread, and one that should notfor a moment prevail in theminds of considerate people.Those who wish to succeed himwould find it would take themmany a day to get as far up theladder as Mr. Hermann is at thepresent time. Transcript.

The Times, touched to thequick by our casual mention ofits "cuckoo" propensities, sneersat the Gazette, asserting thatit reprints from the Times. Thecharge is a master study in theart of revenge. The accusationthat the Gazette relies uponsuch source for its information,is designedly cruel.

A PEN PICTURE OF CALIFORNIA.Lou Akgei.cs, Cal., Feb. 13, 1896.

E Gazbttk:With your permission, we will give your

miny readers a slight account of our doingsand whereabouts, since leaving our ownbeautiful little city, January 27th, by thepopular Yaquina route for San FranciscoThis was our first trip over the O. C. & E.under the present management, and we notewith pleasure the many and substantial im-

provements. After two days sight seeing atNewport, and laying in an abundance ofro;k oysters, wc turned south on board thesplendid steamer Farallon, Capt. Kobarts incommand, a pleasant and courteous gentle'mm. In all our travels, we have never metwith more pleasant and courteous officersand crews than 'on the Farallon. Everything possible was dona for our comfort andpleasure. Capt. Kobarts informed us hislast trip north was made in forty-tw- o hoursfrom dock to dock.

We entered the golden gate Saturday, andwhat a gate it is, Well may Sdn Franciscobe proud of her harbor. Sunday we turnedour faces sonth for Los Angeles, where wearrived early Monday morning, to tho joy ofour friends. It seems almost incredible tbeprogress this city has made during the lastfew years Sinco '92, when we visited here,thousands ot modern residences and milesof street car lines have been added to thecity. The change is so complete that mywife could not find her former home, afteran absence of only three years. Whsre therewas then only a few scattering houses, wefound it built up almost solidly with fine res-

idences, and solid, substantial businessblocks. Property here that was ottered tome at $70 per front foot is now held at $500.At that time thero were no oil wells in exis-tence. Now the first of tho present monthreports has 375 in the field with a daily out-

put of 2,200 barrels of 31 gallons. About1,500 barrels of this is used inside the ci ty,fie remainder is shipped mostly to SanFrancisco.. Thero is activity in the oil busi-

ness. Wages are good, $2.00 to $2.50 perday. But, mark you, there are thousands ofmoi here seeking etnploj-mcn- t and thechi'icss for gettiiis it are nominally no btt- -
