Recognizing the fact that all our people are now affected by the hard times, and knowing that when they pay out money for newspapers they ot course want to get reading matter as possible, we make the following announcement and offer : 10 ail subscribers who will settle what they owe and pay us one year ia advance for the Dkiiookat, or to any new subscriber who pays in advance, we will send the following tree oi charge: XTn Cktcago I) cata A mm for six months, or the F jrmsrv' fitview one year. TBS CHICAGO SEW is an independent paper aboat the size of the Daxoc&AT, but it is printed in smaller type. and doesn't have over two columns of adver tisements. Each number is crammed full with the latest news of the world, miscella neous articles, and as it always has from three to five stories in it a home circle can not find anything else which would be more welcome?. For $3.23 in advance we will send it and the Democrat to any address for a full year. TBE FAKVEaU' KETIEtV is a 16-page menthly agricultural paper, aad is as full of departments as the government at Washington, and they all bear evidence of smosnal skill and industry in their manage, ment. Besides its agricultural articles it gives a great deal of miscellaneous reading and some splendid stories. It and the Dkkoceat will be sent on year for only $3. Remember that ws cannot make these of fers to any one but new subscribers who pay in advance, or to old subscribers who square up and pay one year in advance. It isn't every day that such an opportunity is offered to get two papers for the price of one, and yon would do well to improve it. ATBhaw TBI to Tear Xelskbor.-R CACCBT AT.LtKT. BchanTer. the Mxriea Bounty Kacea TklrT, Arrested Over ea liwp Creek. SchorTer, the man who was tried in the Circnit Court foe this county about a year ago for stealing wheat from W. K. Price near this city and then bringing it here to Albany and selling it, is again in the clutches f the law. After leaving here he changed his name to Wilson and went down into Ma rion county, and daring last September stole 2,600 lbs of bacon near Salem and marketed it about after the same manner that he dis posed of the wheat np here. After selling the bacon he decamped and Officer Minto, of Salem, has been on the hunt for him ever since. He went over to PrineviHe, down to Astoria, and over on the Sound, bat still he couldn't get on the trail of his pork-loving friend, bat when he retained he learned that Schoffer had been living quietly over in Ben ton county all the time under the as sumed name of Cocks. A warrant was seat ap and J. B. Herren west ever to Mr. Cowan's, on the Corvallia road, last Monday and arrested the nui and brought him to this city. Minto came up on the evening express, and went back in the morning with his prisoner. Oar "Bee Law." It begins to look like our city had at last secured a Marshal who intends doing his du ty, and doing it faithfully. Marshal Ander son has started in well, and if he "keeps np his lick" Albany and her eitizens will be (Treat deal better off at the ead of his term. His last act of importance was to announce that from and after the 8th of February he will commence the rigid enforcement of the ordinance relating to dogs running at large. This ordinance has been a dead letter in oar city laws for several years, and the conse quence is there is not such a canine-cursed community as Albany on the whole Pacifie . Coast Out some distance from our main business street every night is made hideous by the howling of these animals, and if peo will keep them they ought to be made pay a reasonable tax. We are glad te see the Mar shal moving in the matter of enforcing the "dog law," and although he may find many persons opposed to such action, he may count en us as one that will render him every assistance inoor power. Washington Grand Kail. We acknowledge the receipt of a compli mentary invitation to the 17th Annual Ball of that veteran militia company of Oregon, the Washington Guards" (Co. A, 2nd Bri gade).

This is the oldest militia com pany in the State, and we predict a splendid "blow oat" for "the boys in gray." . C'harch Dedication. The new U. P.

On Saturday of last week a lady of this aity, noticed that her little six-year-old daughter was not well, and upon questioning her was told by the little girl that their Chi nese cook had been tampering with her. Dr. Hill waa called Sabbath morning and after examining the child pronounced that the vat alllicted with the gonorrhea ef the worst form. The Chinaman was also examined Audit w.ts revealed that he also had' the same disease. This was taken as conclusive testimony, and the almond-eyed heathen was arrested on the charge of rape, and on account of tho threats of lynching made by citizens, he was spirited away from the hotel, tried immediately before Justice ralmer, found guilty, and not being able to give bail, was remanded to jaiL Great ex citement prevailed upon tho streets daring the day and along into the night, and loud threats were made ef lynching the Chinese brute, and all that was needed to enable the people to carry oat their threat waa the word from the father ef the child. Very few are the mea who would ever have allowed that polluted heathen the benefit of a trial in the Courts, and no jury in this State, or on this Coast, would have put any penalty upon the father if he had blown tho brains out of the fellow when he learned for a fact that he had almost, if net entirely, ruined his little girL We are not in favor of mob law, but we could not have condemned the father if he had killed the dirty brute, and we are told that he would have done so, but the of. ficers took the prisoner away secretly. A great many of oar citizens who have families now have Chinese help in their employ, and this affair should be a warning te them. There may be some of this heathenish raee ho are honorable, but they are scarce, and people who employ them and put them in their own household cannot be too cartful. emse-Breaklag aad Thieving;. On Friday or Saturday of last week while Mrs. J no. Irving was absent from home only a few moments, some one entered the dwell ing and stole a whole set of silver napkin rings. A Chinaman was seen in that locali ty about the same time, and it is thought that he was the thief. Still another case of the same character happened en Sabbath evening at Mr. Mans field's. Mr. M. aad his daughters had gone to attend Bronaugh'a lecture, and his wife and Will had retired, leaving the doors un locked, when some man entered the front door and passed into the sitting room. Mrs. M. saw him from her bed-room and at once lacked her door and commenced calling for assistance. Before any one arrived the thief passed on through the hoase and oat at the back door, stealing on his way $1.50 from old Grandfather Bollard, and also taking two or three lossres of bread. The next ease that we have heard of oc curred at the Severe House oa Tuesday af ternoon or evening. Henry Schlucter works at Foster's flouring mills from noon until midnight and boards at the above hotel, and while he was on duty last Tuesday some one entered his room and stole clothing to the amount of over $100. Ko clew has been ob tained te the perpetrator of the crime. Ko blame can be attached to the proprietors, as their house is public and parties are visiting rooms in their building at all hours. When inch cases as these are of almost nightly occurrence our people will do well to provide themselves with fire-arme, and be ready te give a warm reception to all such callers. A Bother Chlmeae Oalrma. Really, this Chinese business is becoming onstrous ! Scarcely had oar people recov. ered Jiom the consternation and indignation consequent upon the intended rape of a lit tie girl, than we have the whole city again shocked by the announcement of another oatrage. On Monday evening, just after dark, while Mrs. John Brown was doing np her household work, a Chinaman, with his face covered by a mask, entered the room, approached her from behind and threw his arms around her waist, but the brave little woman, realizing her peril, picked np a lamp chimney and broke it over her assailant's head. The villainous wretch immediately drew a knife and struck at her, fortunately, however, only catting a long opening in her apron. At this critical juncture, and while she was retreating from the villainous mon ster, her repeated screams brought to her as sistance some near neighbor, and the assail, ant fled. There is much feeling manifested still over this and similar outrages recently, enacted here, and if something isn't done shortly to protect our citizens, they are lia ble to "break out" Assaalt and Cattery. A case was np in Justice Palmer's court last Wednesday in which a man named Arm strong, 60 years of age, was convicted of as saulting a man named Humphrey, 75 years of age. He was fined $15 and costs, in all amounting to about $50. The assault was committed by throwing brickbata. Our Crops. The cold weather is gone and now we are having the regular old-fashioned Webfoot mist Farmers inform as that their wheat has not been injured at all, but a great deal of oats will have to be re-sown. kewb man klamath. prngue Hirer I'rotra Ovsr-Heerk Itavrd-JeaaseB Dead Tae Weather. Klamath Answer, Feb. 4. Editor Democrat: In your issue of the 24th ult. ia an item which says that Sprague River in this part oi the country has not been frozen over this winter. That is a mistake. On the 14th of January the Agent, lu company with his elerk, the iutorpreter and Doctor, went from this agenoy to Yainax ia a hack drawn by tour horses, and crossed Sprague Biver oa the ioo both going and eeming. The snow was nine inches deep at that time. Upper r.lamatb .Lake has been frozen over for sis weeks, and we new have good sloightus from Fort Klamath to Modoc Point, a distance ot SO miles. The weather is still cold, and has ranged for some time from 6 to 7 below tero.

Is Oar Hy Be4r-adJaar It may not be, and we earnestly hope it U not, but the facts which have come to light aunng the past week would justify us in eon cludiug that Albany, in regard to the num ber of inhabitants, is really retrogadino. few years ago Squire Arnold took the census of our eity and made the population 1,980, and withia the past week L. IL . Montanr. acting aoder authority of the City Council, has again taken the census and can enly fiud x,u4 insiao of eur corporate limits. There has evidently been a mistake some where. and although we woald a great deal rather find that tt wu made by the latter gontl man, we are afraid such is not the cat two thousand and sixty-four I That sounos very small after thinkingthat we had a population of at least 3,500. But then these are the f gores and we will Lava to stand by them until fuels Sam fixes the question up for as next year. Death ef Ilea. Matthew Feaataia. Hon.

The advantages to be derived from the change are obvious, and we believe the people will meet the proposition with favor. trapped Bead.
