and by-laws tor the club. Carrried Messrs.
N. B. Humphrey, J. H. Foster. Coll. Van

appointees.
Motion made and carried, that when this

next Saturday evening, Sept. 16th, 1376, at
the Opera House.
Motion made and carried, that the pro
ceedings of this meeting be published in
tlie Albany Register, and that other pa
pers be requested to copy.
On motion it was ordered that the Fi
nance Committee be instructed to collect
funds by subscription to defray the ex
penses incurred by this Club.
Sjieeches being in order, N. H. Hum
phrey, Esq.. was called upon, and." "in his
rtsual pointed n ess ot diction, it took htm
but a short time to show where and orf
what grounds the two parties stand at the
present day.
The Chairman, Mr. J. F. Backensto,
Plkasast. Monday afternoon, in company
with Messrs. J. Blevhis and A. J. Johnson," we
took a spln-lnto the country, seated In one of '
Ans. Marshall's handsome turnouts. Barring
the dust, which was deep enough In places,
the ride was exhilarating and. most enjoyable.
At Mr. C. P. Knighton's we fouud that excel
lent thresher, the "Invincible," under super
intendence of Mr. W. 8. Reedor, turning out
wheat in the most satisfactory manner. -Mr.
Knighton informed us that bis crop wonld fall
considerably short of an average one. He has
a large and weL" cultivated farm, and Is a most
liberal gentleman. In the garden near bis
comfortable residence he has one of ths largest
blackberry patches, of the Lawton variety, In
the valley. Upon visiting the patch we found
the fruit, large, ripe and luscious, in great
abundance in fact the bushes were literally
bending nndet their tremendous load of ber
ries. With a good appetite for berries, we un
dertook to thin that crop somewhat, bnt after
doing our "level best." we were compelled to
retire without having made any appreciable
begincment on that patch. On each side of
the road as we passed along men and machines
were busily engaged securing the golden har
vest. Leaving Mr. Knighton's, we crossed the
Calipooiaand were soon at the fine farm of Ble v-
ins Bros., one of the best ranches in old Linn,
where we found "Stick," aided by a two-horse
thresher, turning out wheat at the rate of a
bushel in sixty seconds. And here we struck
another bonanza in the shape of Bartlett pears,
plums and red-cheeked apples. Returning to
ward the city we noted improvements here
and there, giving evidence of thrift and indus
try on the part of our agricultural friends.
Charley Boargardes lias erected a fine-looking
two-story frame, house on his farm, besides
making other Improvements adding to the
looks aad conveniences of his beanttf ul place.
At Uncle George Hughes' we notid quite a
little band of Celestials who, we were told, are
engaged in "grubbing" and clearing new land
for the plow, giving evidence that Uncle
George, although getting along in years, has
lost none of his energy and push, but is still In

Tili'en and Hend ricks, and why Hayes
and Wheeler were his choice. Simple
facts were so forcibly given that every one
present could not help seeing- his views
were sound.
The frpeak'ers were frequently applauded,
and a general feeling of enthusiasm seemed
to prevail throughout the entire audience
during the meeting.
Enthusiastic. A good crowd turned out to

After a temporary organization, speecnes were
