Stein was introduced and made a few well chosen remarks, after which Hon. A. S Ben nett, of The Dalles, the principal speaker of the evening was presented to the peo- pu. Mr. Bennett made an able and elo quent speech, utterly exploding the re publican fallacy that the tariff is the cause of the present hnancial panic and business depression that is prevalent all - .t- T - : . . 1 . . . !owr the United'states. Mr. Bennett has thoroughtveanvassed the Willamette valley and he says the outlook i very encouraging, and' that Eastern Oregon will undoubtedly send in at least 3,000 majority for Bryan. The meeting was a success in every particular and at the conclusion of bis speech Mr. Bennett proposed that the audience give three cheers for Wm J. Bryan, which were given with a will. Our chairman, Hon. M. A. Miller, then proposed we give three cheers for Judge Bennett, to which the people responded as heartily as they. did for Mr. Bryan. We are gaining eround here every day, and with the hearty co-operation "of all the reform forces, we believe our cause will triumph and that liberty will again be restored to the people. Bryasite. Stole into the House. Editor Democrat: Oak Creek, Oct. 5th, 1896 "He that entereth not by the door, but climeih up some other wav, s a thief and a robber." John 10:1. The Savior at one time had occasion to use the words above quoted. Thisscrpt nre was fulfilled at our school house last Friday night. The republicans had agreed to hold a meeting at the school bouse without the consent of the directors. When the crowd (three or four boys and about that many men) arrived the door of course was locked. A certain pentle man (?) climbed up and went in by the window and unlocked the door ineide. This man stole his way intotheShouse, and he robbed the directors of their con sent :o use the house. So there is a cer tain class that is trying to steal tbe lib erties of the American people and rob them of one of their metals that they nee as money. Hurrah for Wm. J. Bryan. A Bhvanitk. Vert Ixsa.vk. Mrs Oelia M. Hart, of this county, was declared insane this forenoon, upon examination by f)r. Clara M. Davidson, committed to the asylum and taken there on the afternoon train.

Ttllotson entered the iudees room. Mrs Harts eyes flashed and she attacked the gemleman phys ically and madly. Of course be was glad to escape whole. Good treatment may restore her retson.

So meeting the so called dude on Main rtreet. with very little ceremony, he landed bis nst on Clarke's chin, knocking him down and bruising his homely lace, reopie ot Corvallis do not usually approve of fight ing, but all who witnessed this affair say that it was proper and necessary.

Gnat Tired Feeling Makes you seem "all broken np," with out life, ambition, energy or appetite. It Is often the forerunner of serious 111 neas, or the accompaniment of nervous troubles. It Is s positive proof ol thin, weak, Impure blood; tor, if the blood is rich, red, vitalized snd vigorous, It im parts life snd energy to every nerve, organ snd tissue of the body. The necessity of taking Hood's Barea par ilia tot that tired feeling Is therefore apparent to every one, and the good it will do yon Is equally beyond question. Remember Sarsaparilla - .

An awful ac cident happened on the S. P. R. R. a mile south of Greens, this morning be tween 6 and 7 o'clock. It seems that when No. 16 (the south bound oveiland) left Koeeburg Conductor r red Wall for got some of his tickets and at Dillard side tracked the train, cut the engine loose and started back to Roseburg to get the tickets. On the engine were James rorter, Fireman Geo. Happersett and Brakeman Ben Lohr. Conductor Wall acted as flagman. In the meantime the officials at this station discovered that tbe tickets had not been taken, and sent them after the overland train on a light engine with orders to overtake the train at Myrtle Creek. On this engine were Engineer Bob McCaulley, Fireman Jack McGonigle and Brakeman J. Toy. There was a dense fog, and the engines ran togtther about a mile south of Greens. t iremftn McGonigle and brakeman Toy were killed by the boiler running imotue tank scalding and Durning tbem iireman Happersett had both feet mashed. One lee was afterward amou tated just below the knee and the toes of the other foot. Enineer McCau.ley es caped with a sprained ankle Engineer Porter the same. Conductor Wall was also bruited. Porters engine after col liding broke loose and ran about two miles. An inquest will be held this af ternoon. ANOTHER RALLY SOXG. Oh shout the cry of battle, boys, Let us sing another song. The democrats are going to rray Just where they NOW belong. Yes shout for Biyan from the Platte, Help the good cause along, And prove that Mister Craw ford And doggerel both are wrong.

Our man will feel the tidal wave, You also do ns tell, You never spoke a truer word, He'll ride high on its swell. You say the people want a change, And will not hear the facta. Yes, those who inspiration draw From gold, not silver tracts. The democrats don't want a change, xney ii stay just where tbey are, And in November ride you down Like Amnion's iron car.

There is a vsry about hoi marked difference of opinion things are poing this year everywhere, in Linn county, as well as elsewhere Reports to me uemck-rat indicate an increasing-i ly strong Bryan sentiment in the county outside of Albany, and here it is holding its own.

We clip from tbe Sa'em Statesman a repub lican view of it, which will be read with interest : "Albany, Oct. 5th.

Green and others of the national democratic party filed a protest before the secretary of state late Satur day night against placing the names of N. L Butler, Harry Watkii.s, N. L. Ol in stead and E. Ho tor on the oilkial ballot as democratic electors. At the democratic convention held in Portland April 0. lS.Ki, K. Killfeather, J. M.Carroll, W. W. Ogle-by and J. J. Whitney were nominated as democratic presidential electors. None of these, ex cept Oglexby, who afterward withdrew, ever qualified by filing ttu-fr names and acceptance with the secretary of state; neither were the names filled by the chairman and secretary of tbe demo cratic convention.

Olmstead in place of Killfeather, Carroll and bituey, who failed to accept, and Oglesby, who withdrew. The protestants nrst claim that Starr and Stout have no authority to act. but that they first should hsve been en powered "by D'Arcy and Noland, chair man aud secretary of the democratic convention, and were not so authorized. It is also claimed that there could be tti substitution nntii the nominations aud acceptance were firU filed. fortunately Oregon has a secretary of state wbo will see that the will of the people is done, and the tickets will con tain tbe following names: McKinlov: John t Caples, TTGeer, FL Smith.

This morning upon complaint Judge Hewitt appointed a receiver for the Al bany Woolen Mills. The plaintiffs are J. M. Mover, L. D. Cole, E. D. Moyer an Mrs. F. F. Craft, owners of 06 shares of stock in the Al bany Woolen Mills Co., of the value of 148,000. and constitute the whole board ol directors. Tbe Indebtedness of the mill is given as $120,000; and the value of the entire property, mill, goods, notes, aceounls, etc. at $140,000. The complaint states that owing to the great and unusual scarcity of money and the indispotition to loan or invest the same by those having it, the great depre ciation in tbe market value of properties, securities and demands and threatened continuance thereof for an indefinite period the defendant has not been able to secure funds to meet the indebtedness of tbe company and that it has no money on hand to pay said claims and will not be able as they come due, that threats to begin suits and attach tbe property have been made and on account of the situa tion it is impossible to continue tbe buc- inecs at the present time, that a large amount of goods are in process of man ufacture. Theiefore a settlement of the estate of the delendant is asked for and pending the same tbe appointment of a receiver of the property. Hon. L. Flinn was appointed receiver, and has given bonds for $25,000 with S. E. Young a security. The appointment insures the ablest and best management possible of the mill and its affairs Tbe present action was precipitated bv the attachment of the property of J M Sfoyer A Co.. of Portland, for $8,000 by an eastern firm, and desiring Ui treat all alike the directors took this course. It is an interesting fact that tbe eastern firm is one of the debters of the Albany company for $6000, ao Mr Moyer reports. An application will be made to Judge Hewitt at once by the receiver for an order to run the mill until the stock on band shall be used op and the orders filled, and it will no doubt be granted.
