T. suggests that our Courts of Justices Institute The Dalles system of punishing dead drunks, vagrants, etc In stead of putting the city to great expense by tending them up ten da vs. they simply talk them to death. At a result crime ft greatly decreasing. O The Justice Court business in Albany has been remarkably good during the but few weeks, fhe commission of atsaultsjarceny and matrimony hat kept our J. Ft busy. 0 The number of tat and blocks changing hands hi Albany it a big straw of what may be expected next year. We would not be surprised to hear the eaglet screech. O The new Flinn Block in this city, one of the finest in the Valley, will be occupied by the First National Bank, Klause St Klein, boots and shoes, and Wallace St Thompson, groceries, on the first floor, and Curran ft Montelth, real estate, J H Burkhart, job printing, and others on the Second floor.

Salem It the capital of the best State in the union. And what about Albany, the center of the Willamette Valley, the junction of two railroad systems, each over three thousand miles long, surrounded by a magnificent farming country, possessing a splendid wa ter power, growing, thriving, the best place hi the beat State outside of Portland. Are we to be put off with a ten minute stop, hardly long enough to see the steam horses come tearing down from the Coast range on the west and the Cascades on the east ! Last Monday the case of the State agt, Case,adjourned from Thursday of last week, was tried before Justice Dorris, when the prisoner was discharged. The evidence went to show that Case loaned Spccdie $6 and took the watch for security with the agreement that if the money was not paid inside of a certain number of days it should become the property of Case At it was not paid Case sold the watch. Mr Case having had a speedy trial it entitled to the speedy acquittal he received, while Mr. Speedy certainly showed himself to be a curious sort of a case. Aatl Prehl. S. H. Harrington, one of the members of the State Legislature who opposed the tub mission of the prohibitory amendment, lec tured at the Opera House in this city Sat urday evening.

The upp.r and wuoden social, given by the Albany A . R. c. at the W. C. T. U. and (J A R. Halls, was an event worthy of the success with which it met. Nearly everybody attended. The supper waa a sumptuous one, noticeable for variety, its tatty arrangement, and the comeliness of the waitresses as well as the alacrity with which they supplied the wants of the guests. The social was a hbzhfv eniovable affair. games and conversation being the order of the program. Quite Origfaal. ' The most original show window ever aeen in Albany Is that of L E Blain's.

Some hops were sold In Eugene last week for 10 cents. Anti-prohibition ists have been endeavoring to make votes by assert ing that if the amendment is lost Oregon hops will be boycotted, a mere scare ; if they are to remain at to cents it wouldn't make much difference anyway.

S. of America. Gloomy. A reporter of the Democrat hat had an interview with Hon C. P Burkhart who has just returned from a visit to hit old home in Iowa. From him we learn that the outlook for business in that State is gloomy. Times are binding, money very scarce, crops very short, and, notwithstand ing this fact, everything the farmer has to sell is low. Young cattle that are worm from $10 to $12 here sell there for $5 to $0. Yearling Holstein's that would bring $18 to $20 here sell for $7 to $8 there. Un the 26th of October snow in central Iowa was 8 inches deep.

Reserved teats at Blackman's. The On says : "Love and Law" drew a fine audience last evening, which testified by the most en thusiastic applause its appreciation of the artistic effort of Milton and Dolly Nobles and their most excellent company. In the role of Felix O' Part, the clever Irish attor ney, Mr Nobles has abundant opportunity ior the display of hit essentially sj gtmrti ate noes. His shrewd Hibernkism and quick-witted speeches kept the audience la splendid humor throughout, and his easy. natural manner, avoid of any straining af ter effect, always fits Into the action de manded by each recurring situation with an appropriateness that never fails to please. At timet, however, Mr Nobles falls Into a habit which, in a man of his cleverness, certainly easily overcome, namely, that ot so telescoping hie words together, particu larly at the close of a sentence, and thev are entirely lest to the audience. This should not be, for so welt do his auditors enjoy whatever he says that they want to hear It all. Dolly Nobles renewed the pleasing ref lections of two years ago in her fathful and delightful portrayed of the persecuted Ital ian street singer, Ritta, and In her scene with Contl in his den displayed a dramatic force which shows her the true artist. Hci tweet toned, sympathetic voice was heard with delight in two charming songs In the third act Miss Luutie Jeremy made a very easy and graceful Helen Montague, and Mary Daven port in the duel roles of the garrulous Mrs Taroox and the Italian crone Rosa, was thoroughly artistic. In the latter role es pecially, In make up, dialect and action she was particularly strong, and heartily ap plauded. The Giovanni Contl of Louis F Howard was a capital piece of acting throughout. His make up was fine, hit dialect true, and he threw into his rendition of the part all the cunning and vindktiveness of which it ia susceptible. Mr. Charles Can fie Id, as the Baronet Sir Randell Burns, was natural and equal to the situations. Mr Charles Morrell did a clever piece of work in the old bachelor lawyer Septimus Sawyer, while John H Reedy'e personation of the cockney thief Jimmy Nipper, was a good bit of character acting. The remainder of the cast filled all the requirements, and the play went smoothly throughout, being well staged in every scene, particularly the den of Contl and the boudoir scene in the third act A Corona Letter. Mrs Judge Denny writing to a Union county lady from her Corean home, among other things has the following to tay of in terest to her many friends in Linn county I The country b said to be very rich in con and mineral wealth, including gold and silyer. In regard to the people, my heart aches for thtra. They are so helplessly and hopelessly bound by old cutom official squeexing as it is caed ; which is thorough ly corrupt ; and ' the superstitious regard of the masaes of trie people for old customs and traditions, that they must necessarily move slowly. Korean standpoint the king hat already made great strides. On ac count of all this my husband's position here is a very diffiu'.t one Indeed. Ho far Amer ican influence predominates. The political situation is truly kaleiposcople, usually more or less exciting and always interest ing. We have what may be termed polit ical typhoons not infrequently. They come upon us from an apparently clear sky and since the occupation of Fort Hamilton by the English they are much more frequent than before. If the politics ot the country would only become settled It would be a lovely place to live. There are fourteen ladies here now and all are very nice.

Judge McCown, of Oregon City, lectured at the Opera House Saturday night to large house on the prohibitory amendment, and presented some strong, practical argu menu that even a drunken man could not fail to appreciate. He was introduced by C. E. Wolverton, who prefaced the Introduc tion by some timely remarks on the amend ment. The meeting was one that cast con siderable influence on the minds of uncer tain voters.
