Prsprk .r. kd r. nmrnnu. Local setter. A rtae Tw fear old st allien. Last week MoKnlght brothers, of this city, purchased of Jay Beaob, at Salem, Oneoo, who trotted on the 17th inst., and made a mile in 3 minutes, the fastest two year old record ever made in Oregon or the Territories. lie won one heat and would have obtained the race but for an accident This young stallion comes from a magnificent stock. His aire was Alt amont, son of the famous Almont ; Gran dam, Geo D Prentice, son Msmbrlno Chief, sire of Lady Thome with a record of 18' j ; Great Grandam by Woodpeck er, sire of tho fsmous Grey Esgle. Oueo is dark bay with a apt Inkling of white hairs, and was foaled June 1st, 1SS1. His dam was Doble, who was by Erieson whose two year old record was 5:30 f the bent for lourteen years. Oneoo's grand sire, Almont was a half brother of the wonderful Goldsmith Maid, and was the aire of Governor Stanford's famous S9, 000 stallion, Pied moat, whose record is 2:17m also a sire of Vender bi It's team Aldlne and Early Rose, which made a mile in 21, alee Penny Withers poon with the same record, and tweo-y others, with records of 30 or better. Oneoo is we understand the first full blooded rare stallion owned in Linn county, and with the above re lationship something very fast may be expected from 1L There is no reason why Linn county should not have fast-stock as well as other counties In the State, and this purchase by IfoKnight Brothers would indicate that something will be done in this direction. Ilk mt mm Died to Halsey, SepL 22ud, Wn Mc Meekin in the eighty-fifth year of his age. Mr MoMeekin was born in Pennsylvania on the 24th of August, 1799. His early life was spent in Richard county, Ohio, whence hs emigrated to Oregon in 1851. His first settlement was on the prairie near Halsey, bat he soon after removed to Camp Creek, Lase county, and, returning to Linn county, purchased a farm near Hairisburg on which he lived several years. He also lived for some time in Walls Walla, W. T., where be was employed in teaching and as County School Superintendent He reside 1 in Al bany six or eight years and in Halsey the last year. He preserved his t rtivity and vigor in old age remarkably, and was about to remove to a new home en the Tsquina when the hand of death was laid upon him. On Wednesday of last week he had gone on horseback some ten or twelve miles east of Halsey en business sad wss returning on Thursday, whea within half a mile of home, he either dismounted or feU from his horse and was found lying in the road insensible and paralyzed, and died at 10 o'clock on Saturday. Mr MeMeekis was a man of energy and successful in life, a valuable citi tzen and an earnest life long christian. L W. C. T. s7. Settee. Mrs M. C. Leavitt is now in California and will visit Oregon, when through with Iter engagement there. The Rescue speaks of her ss the gifted sad eloquent apostle of -the christian women of America and says : "There is, of coarse, only one Miss Willard in the world, but those who expect to 6nd Mrs Leavitt ose ef the lesser liglits, or that she is not one of the brightest sod best e! the most eloquent sod sble speakers of the day will be mistaken." We hope she will be invited to all the towns of oar State, and that the cause of the W. C. T. U. as well as that of the other tempers ace organizations may be greatly helped, and that the largest amount of good may be accomplished throughout the State by this visit.

An interesting letter from Rev T B White, at Siletz, says : "Tbe booming tide at new moon was distinctly heard at this place, although we are in a Val ley and six or seven miles from the oeean.

Crops among the Indians pretty good." Alnseet a Conflagration A curious fire occurred st the Magnolia Mills yesterday morning just after sevea. Oae of the elevators caught on fire from the friction of the grain belt, and the whole elevator was ao:;o in flames. Fortunately there was plenty of help on hand as well as hose and water on each floor, so that it was soon pnt our, but not until the elevator was burned from the bottom nearly to the top. - Albany Mechanic' Band. m A city withont a band is like a with boy out a whistle, N. G , and if it is to have one at all it should be a good one, and should deserve being encouraged by tbe citizens of the place. The Mechanics' Band in this city has been lately reorgan ized by onr musical young men, and has the benefit of net only the old talent that used to make it so popular, but as well several new first-class players.

A son of Mr De Armond, at Jefferson, wss recently run over by a wagon filled with main, but fc -tunatelv no benes were frac tured, Dr Hill of this city attended him Allen k Martin keep constant? on band an endless variety of corsets. The "ever lasting," "unbreakable'' aad "corduroy," the three best corsets made, always in stock Mr Alfred Wheeler recently sheared bis famous Spanish Merino sheep. Ntoety-twe head averaged sixteen pounds, the best one giving up s fleece that weighed thirty-four pounds. Pendleton saloon keepers are being arrest ed for keeping open on Sundays. The citi zens there chum six days in tbe week is enough, and Pendleton is not a virtuous city either. Nearly everything now sells for $1 bushel. So striking is this tbe case tbst one grocery man talks of calling his place tbe one dollar store, aoeles. potatoes, tomatoes, etc., are J w e P ; w in the list.

A large crooked cane, looking somewhat like a stripped tree, trimmed with silver, was seen going along the street last Monday with a man hanging to one of its crooks. Naturally enough everybody stared. The losses reported in the Democrat last week from the stranding of the "Pacific," are not as great ss supposed, as many of the goods supposed to have been thrown over board have eome duly aad safely to hand. That vacuum motor is being manufactured at Oregon City and a maohins for it to run, this even before it has been demonstrated that there is anything ia it.

Ths first of ths we k Mr Johu M .llail very kindly remembered the Drmociat with a carious branch o? grapes ss hand some as if they grew ia California, together with a few stray bunches to be ussd prac tically. Ths duties on salt are net as high as they used to be. This is encouraging for Linn county people who buy their grtociss, and provisions of J L Cewan k Co., ai Lebanon, where one of the very best selected stocks is to be found. Thos L Wallace, at Lebanon, is the Demo crat r duly authorised sgeat to reeoive money oa subscription or advertisement. He can be found at the store of Dr Foley, in whose employment we are glad to know hs will be this winter. A Chinaman was arretted Saturday for sawing wood on a sidewalk. The cheek of the 0 lestial tribe was well illustrated by this one's insisting that the person he was sawing the wood for should pay the fine, and included it in his bill. Rev R L Stevens while coming down a ladder on his new barn at Waterloo a few days since met with s qar r aoo-dsnt. We are told he was doing it bead first, when his feet slipped, and hs fsll pu.-iug fear fingers ef his left head oat of joint. Opening dsy st which ths new m-llinory goods of Miss Msttie Allison will be esbib- 1 ted to ths public has been postponed until next week. Newest aad latest style of hats from San Francisco will be received. Due notice of opening day will be given. J P Gilmeor. of Miller's, has a big heart, for proof of which we cite the fact that he left in the Da oca at office Saturday s box of as fine eating apples as were ever raised this side of Maine. Better had a man be entitled to the name of the "Printers Knend" than that of Senator, Governor or Lobby tsL Last Satardey night a chicken w. stolen from the yard of J If Nolan, awaiting a Sunday dinner, d eeyerel wat-r asslewa from S B Young' y .rd.

Last week we stated that McFarlaod 4 Tompkins received tbe first goods coming to tats city by ths Northern Pacific. We might farther add that they sold the first stove to the first emigrant coming here both by that new and famous route. Ia the PayaUap Valley, Washington Territory there are 96 hop growers ; 723 acres of eld, and 423 acres of new hops, c 1. 145 acres ia alL Tbe old fields will prob ably average this year sbest 1,600 paands to the acre aad the new ooes shoot 400 pound. giving a total of 2,924,800 pounds.

A few days since we received s letter from Washington Territory sent under cover to St. Paul, Mian., and there pat ia the Post Office for its return trip to Albady. A fic titious name was signed as if from that .Isos. Ws knew tbe writer Well sad sbstl take pleasure in investing ting the matter suggest ed in his letter.

Brownsville educational matters are tak ing a boon. The daily attendance in tbe Graded school is upwards of oae hundred. Bumor bss it tbst a third teacher will be procured immediately. This week Moyer Bros., has made eighteen or twenty desks. Sitting accommodations fcr thirty-five or forty have thos been made ia addition to what was afforded heretofore. People come fiom every nock, crook, aad corner, within one hundred miles ef Albany to trade with Allen and Martin, the is because people will boy where they bay the best goods for the least money, dent buy your fall supplies until yon come snd Lees tbem if yon want to keep warm and be happy dnriag the cold winter. The trade at Allen and Martins is swelling SO boomingly that they have been compelled to employ anotner ttret class salesman to order to wait upon easterners. They have e - . , .a neen fortunate enougn to secure tbe service of tbe popular young gentleman, Mr. Fred Blnmbnrg so well known in oar midst. Business is fairly booming at this hoase. Mr J s uaonais nas sola bit interest in ths machinery snd lumber of the furniture establishment, recently run by Dannals k Woodin, to Mr Brink and R W Fisher, both for severs! years connected with that firm. It will now be run under the name of Wood in, nnnk 4 risher wbowill keep up the reputation of the oM f - by doing good work and furnishing the people of Linn county with as good furniture as is to be obtained in tbe Valley. See advertisement in another column. Some one suggests tnat omnibuses be rnn into Lebanon by electricity in order to take the hundreds of customers direct to J L Cowan k Co's store to purchase their i mense stock of new goods, consisting of dry goods, groceries, hardware, boots and shoes snd everything usually found in a first-class general merchandise store, of the best qual ity and at bed rock prices. The omnibnses will not be built, yet everybody will go to that popular firm, "all ths same" even if they save to walk and pack their goods horns on their backs. This is because they are giving bargains. A farmer near Lebanon who bss been taking summer boarders this season and treating them like members ot his own family was recently reproached for watering his milk. With a burning glance hs replied to this reflection as follows 1 "Go to J L Cowan k Co. at Lebanon and get yonr goods and yon will never be troubled with such creamatory ideas. They bays the finest stock of dress goods of all kinds in the coon ty, which I have proof they are selling st bottom prices, and there is no question as to the quality and durability of the goods.

It is ft feet 2 inches by 4 feet 9 mcbos and weighs lea than a ton, sad lsst four large ears of corn equal to anything ever ral ed ia Uliaois or Missouri, and ready for pick sag. It is a epleudid variety and shows what Oregon soil eaa do. Farmers desiring to try this can have a few kernels by callias st tbe Democrat office. On account of the wonderful fertility of his soil Mr Alphioe proposes to raise s Urge crop of the Btlleeger turnips so that tbey will be ready to vote ia the prr tdeati J eleetioa sad help carry the state, for the Democratic party. These specimens show what sod in its natural state will do ia Oregon for they were raised on land never fertilised by man ore or otherwise. Serieem Aeeisleat.
