A MAX usalT Taw. The most humiliating charge ever made ugainat the Man About Town is that he put his shear around article from a cer tain SuiuIat paper. He deniet it emphat ically. He never steals an article, even Oregomiam dispatches. He does do what all enterpriaing journalist do, gets newa wherever he can get them, even out of Sunday papers and aa fur as that goe favors 'arc even. .

A. T. has failed to stumble against them. It knocka u man toper turvey, ao that he doea not know for certain just where he does stand on even the common proprieties. Recently while going through with the performance the M. A. T. did numerous circus acts like wiping hi nose with his watch case, taking out his hand kerchief to find the time of day, etc. 0 Probably the iwxt uncomfortable posi tion In the" world is that of a Common Coun cilman. He gets kicked like a foot ball for every step taken. Some times he deserve to be. Frequently he is misunderstood and often it serves him right. He is found fault with for doing too much and for not doing enough. By the way, confound the up and down sidewalk on Ferry street. Think of gntnding 6th street, ugh ; and that side walk on Ninth street ; and the awful silence on the Keady liquor law ordinance ; and the ditch, and that eight foot side walk, and so forth. Lots of smoke and a little fire of course. rep Prospeela. The best news for the farming commun ity i that the wheat prospect is first -class Strictly it is not news, for it is known al ready, but in newspaper language it is news of a high order. From all part of the count v the report is the same. Cereals of a m all kind look fine, and if the present weather program is carried out there will be a harvest that is a harvest next fall Eastern farmers may receive forty to fifty per cent more for their wheat than Oregon -ians, but Oregonian can raise one hundred percent more to the acre, which leaves the balance in our favor. We have heard the remark made by men of careful judgment that there is more money in wheat here at 60 cents than on the Atlantic Coast at 9O ! cents. A lon as there is to be a differ- ence we would of course prefer the figures ! should be IOC and 13O ; but it paya to make j the best of it and accept the inevitable. In Old lossi Bilk.

On last Tuesday evening the editors of the Democrat were serenaded by the Al bany City Band, their coveted instruments sending forth on the evening air harmon ious strains of music, to charm even editors breasts. Of course the boys furnished the power. They are doing some good playing, are a gentlemanly set of young men and deserve the best support of our citizens. They will please accept the Democrat's thanks. &09 Majority. The neatest and sweetest place in Albany is Hoffman & Pfeiffer's. Their stock of candies Is immense. Try their taffy. Their soda water is running. Splendid line of oranges, lemons, figs, dates, etc. Every thing in season. Their stock of groceries is good.

It is now May 7th, just two weeks later, and yet none have appeared in any quantity.

Call and ree samples. following account of an episode at that place about as interesting as you often read about this side of Mexico : A lady.who ha been residing here for some time past, moved to Waterloo a few day ago, but, aa ahe had not payed all of her house rent, some of her furniture wa attached until the rent could be payed. What ahould happen a few days after but that a Conatable.Mr. Wood, should come to arrest Mr. Keenan, the gentleman who had attached the furniture. Mr. Keen an was not quite so easily taken as one might have supposed, so Mr. Wood deputi ed A. 1). Leedr and 8. Wilson to help him. In the meantime, however, Mr. Wood re- . i . - tr. l ft I I - . t turned to wiuerioo. uuring nis aosence I the bovs decided to have some fun, and laid their plans accordingly. So when Mr. Wood returned in the evening Mr. Keenan was nowhere to be found. A search was immediately hegun.and soon something was thrown out of the barn, which, In the dark ness being dressed In Mr. Keenan's clothes,) looked very much like a person. All start ed for the suppoaed Mr. Keenan.but, just at that moment.a revolver was fired. S. Wilson cried out that he was killed, and fell heavily to the ground. Mr. Wood and eeverat others carried the dead man to Mr. Davis's, and It was found he was not quite dead, but had received two wounds and would live but a few hours at most, Mr. Wood returning to the place where the shooting took place.was accused of having done the deed, but he de nied having any arms of any kind. The boys were unwilling to believe him, so hi person was searched, but with no aucccsa, when some one suggested that he might have thrown the revolver away. All hands begun looking for the revolver, which was soon found lying on the ground near Mr. Wood, where he was accused of having thrown it. The excitement was now in tense, and the Constable was glad to escape with his life. He returned to Watcrioo,told them a man had been almost killed and was probably dead by that time. The next morn ing he heard that S. Wilson was just alive and that was all. Mr. Wood's position waa now a very peculiar one, so he started to Lebanon to see what could be done, still with the illusion that the man was about dead. Arriving In Lebanon, about the first person that Mr. Wood met on the street was none other than S. Wilson the dead man. We will leave them here, with Mr. Wood looking his surprise better than we can tell it. Tangent Srhssl aUpvrl Month ending April loth.

Albany has the best water power of any place in the State, without Oregon City should be excepted Albany is the center of a magnificent farmning country.

Young people should not perambulate the streets evenings with arms around each other, particularly when followed by big dogs to give them away. Our people should not leave a stone un turned that would help build up our city. Our city fathers ahould not hesitate to grant all the rights of way asked for. Many a city,as big nuisances as some rights of way are, have been built up by liberal policies in such matters. A Carious Admission Fee. Last Monday evening several ambitious youths gave a select minstrel entertainment at some place in this city, attended by a select audience of other youths. The show was of course infantile, but amusing. The admission fee was ten pins, a sound kero sene oil can or a whiskey bottle ; all of which are convertible into cash. Harrow In 2 Accident.

To the Ttmftmnce feofte 0 Limit county ; Dear Friends : By the Executive Committee of the State Temperance Alii ance I have been requested to call a con vention of Temperance workers in our county, to consider and if approved, to adopt the proposed constitution of County Temperance Alliance. I therefore give you notice tlutt such Convention will be held in the city of Ah bany on Tuesday the abth day of May, 1886, at 2 o'clock, p. m. Under the new constitution you are au thorized to send one delegate to represent you. The objects of the County Temper ance Alliance are as follows : First To collect, collate and publish in formation as to the progress or hindrance of the general temperance work in county. Second To obtain and classify Jnforma tion a to the enemies of temperance work in general, or in detail, throughout the county. ' Third To set in motion in the count v agencies of various kind in aid of temper ance for Instance. (a) To prosecute or cause to be prosecut ed, through the proper public omcer, ol fenders of all degree against temperance laws or ordinances. (b) To obtain and arrange for, or support, as the case mav be, public effort of all tem perance societies, Sunday schools, lodge. Women' Christian Temperance Unions, or chure hes.b v way of lectures, public religious services, pledge circulation or temperance literature circulation throughout the county. Fourth To report, generally once a year, and from time to time, a circumstances demand, to the State Temperance Alliance, through its executive committee, all mat ters of interest occuring in Linn county which relate to temperance legislation, or need, or have received, judicial decision. Fifth To support generally the policy and action of the State Temperance Alli ance in its work, and especially to raise by special efforts in county the ' quota asked for from that county by the finance committee of the State Temperance Alli ance, in aid of the expenses of printing, of the annual meeting of the State Alliance, and for the necessary expense of maint in- tng that organization. If the convention adopt the new Con stitution, and becomes the County Temper, ance Alliance, the officers for the first year will be elected, consisting of President, Vice President, Secretary, Corresponding Secretary, Treasurer, and an Executive Committee consisting of the above officers. The Alliance will also elect delegates to represent our county at the meeting of the State Temperance Alliance in Salem on June 18th, 1886 ; the number of such dele gates will be twice the total of our county's representation in the lat Legislature of Oregon. You will readily see how important it is that all the various bodies to be represented in the Alliance shall not fail to elect their delegates. The power for good depends on united and harmonious action. Yours Fraternally, TJ. Wilson Slrajed Liberal steward Offered.

Tuesday evening wa marked with nothing of Npecial Interest, a the road lie in the wood for a considerable distance, and therefore the uulnpirlng mouotory of hills and hollows, timber and bruh, log and stumps, accompanied by an oppreive sb. sence of inliabitants,much of the way. The almost painful monotory receives a sudden and delightful transition, for we are ushered into ti e august presence- of the grandly magnificent Columbia, with it environ ments of mountains , overwhelmingly im pressive by reason of their imnieuencs in everything that is necessary to constitute first class mountain ; altitude, perpendicu larity, obliqueness, earth and rock. Simple and intermixed, vegitable growths, barren wast, over hanging cliffs, pecially impres sive because of their dangerous appearance, now and then a stupendous rock, tired of its imperial hight has sought an humbler place, by leaping Into the mighty Columbia. Now, Mr. Editors, you see I have been trying to describe, but 1 know you really think a pen o inadequate to such a task had better, for the credit of its holder, atop right away off ; and I cheerfully heed your suggestion, and only add, the wide, deep, rock hound otd Columbia, with It moun tain sentinel i "right smart purty" to a lover of the grandly sublime. The last observation of thl evening worthy of special notice is the Cascade Locks 1 all that could be seen from the train wa the very extensive excavation for the channel, and tremendou piles of rock for walls I suppose. The Dalle i readied about 9 p in., nothing special U vUiblc here but the t 'matilla House and the new Col umbian Hotel ; both of which structures would lie an ornament to mot any western dty. C. 1.

An Albany lawyer on remarking that hi wood pile was gone wa asked by a neigh bor why he did not call on him for some "I would," he said, "but It is too long." How did he find it out i the query. Mrs. Folsom says she will not confirm the engagement of her daughter, hut the trous ecu is made. Innocent old lady. A Salem correspondent of a Portland paper has an antidote for ring rule in the practice of holding convention away from Portland. W sav ditto In reference, to Salem also. A big fight is being made for the eight hour system all over the East. It will never touch the fourteen hour a day clerk or the fifteen hour a day farm hand, though. " ' a Waterloo ttefcswl.
