There is no exaggeration in the state
ment that thousands of persons residing

ague regions on this Continent and else
where, breathe air more or less impregnat

ease, simply anu only because tncy are in
the habit of using Ilostctter's Stomach Bit

AN IMPORTANT ENTERPRISE.
EniTOn Begister : The attention of
the community is lie re by called to the con
templated enterprise of putting freight
boats ou the Santiam Ditcli, whieli will be
uudei taken by Mr. B. M. -Kent, provided
a contract can be effected with tlie owners
of the Ditch on reasonable terms ; and we
hope they will be liberal . In allowing
freight to pass over tlie Ditch at the lowest
possible rates, until eneb enterprise be
comes thoroughly established.
. When this is done, tlie tedious process of
hauling lumber, grain, and other produce,
can be obviated. Tbe best quality of lum
ber can be had at tbe mill of Messrs. Sct-
tlemeir & Dawson, and hauling a distance
of 4 miles will bring It to the planing mill
of Mr. S. A. Xickerson, where it can be
prepared for building, and from there be
placed on the boats with one handling,
then elide smoothly down to the terminus
of the Ditcli, and from this point to many
parts of town, it will cost the builder no
more than to haul from tbe Albany mills,
besides having lumber of the best quality
the country affords. Bough lumber and
cord-wood can be furnished to the farmers
in the vicinity of the Ditch, as well as to
the citizens of Albany, much clieaper by
Ditch transportation. To farmers the
question- of haalmg gram is-the most im
portant.
We suggest that a small investment In
lumber will build a platform and shade It
over, on tiie bank of the Ditch, sufficient
at least to hold the grain of one harvest
company, at a cost of not more than f 15-or
$20, and the lumber not be injured for
fencing or other purposes. And can we
not make arrange menu with persons de
siring to store grain, to receive our crops
on the bank ot the Ditch; cleaned and
sacked (if they want it so) ready 'for ship
ping t Or, if we store, with the mills, one
handling will place the . grain ou-the ears
from tbe boat, and will this cost the receiv
er more than to receive grain at Shedd or
Tangent Station, which they do, if I am
not mistaken, without cest to the pro
ducer r ' ,ty. "
Now what we want is to hear from the
man that will do this in case the boats are
put In. Who comes first to the front
Mr. Kent proposes to put fn two boats.
constructed ou tlie . flat-boat principle
coupled together, tlie capacity of which is
thought to be sufficient to carry one thous
and bushels of wheat, or that weight of
lumber. We can assure tlie proprietors of
the Ditch, and ail others Interested, that
Mr. Kent is an honest thorough going bus
iness man, and can be relied on with cer
tainty to fulfill his contracts, and thtt ex
perience gained while boating for the
kras Bro's., during tbe past two years, ful
ly qualifies Imn tor the undertaking of this
important enter prise. ? :

Handsome Monument. Messrs. Mor
gan & Stalger, a their marble yard on
Broadalbin street in this city, Iulto been
turninr out sorae ot tlie bandomest work
in their line we bare ever aeen on tb
coast. : ? A. visit te their establishment will
convince anyone capable of appreciating
beantiftrf work In marble, both ia deslga
and execution, that, no matter how rich
and costly the monument or obelisk we
may wish to erect : to the memory of the
departed loved Ones, Messrs. Morgan &
Stalger can execute the order as neatly ami
at as low a figure as elsewhere. , At re
cent visit to their place we particularly no
ticed a very handsome and elegant monu
ment, just completed, to be erected in
memory of the late Walter Monteith, Esq'
whieli we will here attempt to describe :
The lower enb-bise ot the monument is
two feet eight inches square; on this sit
another granite base, two feet square and
one foot six inches high, upon which rests
the monument, .which is of Italian marble.
The lower base of tlie monument or mar
ble column is hambotneTy molded, and tlie
family name, Monteith, is ricgimtly and
artistically carved on, ' In raised letters.
Tlie cutting of these letters is a work ed
no little labor and skill, requiring several
days of close application to complete.
Then comes an arched die with an octagon
molding eat on top, alter which comes a
beautifully finUlied octagon column rising
several feet, gradually tanerius towards
the top, on which sKa a heavily molded
cap, the whole crowned with an uni, on
which i carved, with the most exqnislto
taste aud skill, a cluster of roses, with a
ribbon twining among them, as it were a
wreath tied on to the urn. A more ele
gant and tasteful tribute to modest worth,
executed in marble, iias never been erected
h our cemetery; and the elegant sim
plicity which marks tlie work throngliout,
shows tlie possession of a high order of ar
tistic excellence by Mr. Gus. Stalger, nnder
whose hand the pliant marble assumed
shape aud Jbcanty.
