There was a fair attendance at the Court House last Tuesday evening at the mass tem perance meeting, the program for which was published in our last issue, which though, was not carried oat as published. The ques tion, "Is the liqnor license system beneficial t the country f was discussed by Revs. Browiieon and Judy on the affirmative, and Revs. Harris and McAllister, on the negative. Interspersed through the debate were three interesting songs by the Band of Hope, two of which were "Dare to do Right," and "Keep to the Right," and a well rendered duit by Mrs J H Burkbart and Miss Luln S- John. Death mt a Wesis-er. One of Linn county's tint pioneers, Mr. Silas H sight, died at his b ame, uear this city oa last Tuesday meraing, May 12th, at an advanced age, leaving behind him many rela tives and friends to mo tiro bia detth. Mr. Height came to Oregon from New York lat in 1845 and to Linn county in 1S47. Since then this has been his home continually. Mr Haight obtained a good name for honesty, fair dealing and uprightness. Oae by on ear earliest pioneers are leaving m, there being very few left of so early a date as '47. tire Hear Albany, i Last Saturday night about ten o'clock a bright light east of this city told of a tire somewhere ; but whre, the numerous conjectures failed to place, The next morning it was learned to be a barn be longing to Mr Newton White, being on bis farm, about two and a half mile from Albany, rented by Mr Jaa A Miller, The building was entirely burned, together with a lumber wagon, threshing power, other machinery and some hay and otet Total damage about $800. school Ste part.

The first of the week Charles PfeiSer, Harry Waiters and Tom Curran returned from a several days fishing excursion be yond Crtwfordsville, where they had fair lack catcbiag the fiuny tribe, known as trout, and as well spent a most enjoyabl e time In their rusticating trip. They bag ged 125 or thereabouts. About the same time W B Scott, J J Dubruille, C W Watts and Mr Fuller ar rived home from Crab tree Creek, with a record of 480 trout caught. As this is a very mild number it can be relied on. Ba1 Yoatbs from somewhere. Two of the most ornery looking boy tramps often seen were in the city last Monday. Taey refused to pay any fetriage coming a JTOs the river, helped themselves to oran ges along the street, and locked daggers generally. Whether they were pintes, Kit Carsons or the Boy Avengers of Red Gulch, could not be ascertained, but it took uo ex pert in dime novels to judge that they were bad youths from somewhere who left their influence along the dirty line of their trail. Tall Bye. Last Tuesday Mr A Iviu Marks brought to the Democrat office a bunch of rye, raised on the farm of his father, Mr James Marks, this side of Lebanon, which is the highest yet to rear its head In our presence, 7 feet 9 inches tall, containing 4o stalks, all from one grain, it presents a picture of produc tiveness net often seen outside of Ore gon ; yet its counterpart is seen here on occasions.

Last Saturday Mr Haupert.of Sod villa, was brought to this city, charged with be ing insane, and taken before Judge J J Whitney. A com mi-talon of physicians, consisting of Dr W F Alexander and Dr J P Wallace, was called. An exsminstion f several witness-, indicated that llau- pert km len a pretty "naughty" man. threw-in g axes around and making bia neigh nor very uncomfortable ; but such testimony, with the examinations made by tho physicians, failed to prove, that be waa iusatie, aud he was discharged. Ac cording to tbe testimony Haupen has had a large number of epileptic tils, dating through tllieen to tweuty ye ire, snd when under the influence of such couvulsioos lost octroi of himself in suuh a manner as to do oiue very peculiar and weak minded acta. For tustatico, it is said thst oa oae occasion be rushed tmin Sodaviile te Lebanon giving awsy twenties te nearly everybody whom he met, noon dhtpodng of I50 in that manner. Certainly an in sane sign, but not complete proof. Again, Haupcrt is the gentleman who discovered the silver mine at Sodaviile, which eaueod a ripple of excitement a couple of years ago ; but mere than these and a general ugly disposition there seemed to be in sutlicient grounds to impriMon him in the insaueaylutn. He certainly needs treat tueut llf his convulsions, for, as seam Saturday, be waa a comp.ete wreck of a man. and, eveu if he may be weak iu the upper story, aa was alleged, that alone could not send him to Salem, else the asylum there would tie foil. state earn ef Isamls-raites. A Salem paper charges the State Board of Immigration at Portland with being a Kail road iaatitution. with interests in favor of only certain sections. It seems that Col ! Reed, of Salem,, was seut there in the inter est of Marion county, but the Board refused to allow him a seat.although it had previous ly agreed to do so. On the face of it this was a most unfair thing to do ; but, of course, there may be private circumstance which woo id militate against the charges. It looks diiTerently though When the Board was first started an Eta tern Oregon paper accus ed it of being a Portland institution in the interest of the railroads and that city, and the editor w as c tiled a long eared donkey for his pains. One thing is certain, if ths Board would obtain the will of the people outside of Port land, it should take a decidedly different coarse from that already pursued. It has reached that stags where the country expects as favors from Portland, and vice versa. This is to be regretted. No section of a state can afford to werk against another. In this re spect the policy pursued has been a poor one. The appointment of a State Board of Immigration offered a grand opportunity for the healing of old wounds ; but the Portland managers, from the accounts given, have failed to appreciate the position, and, instead, are widening the gap. Cannot something be done to change theae facts, at least the ap pearance ? Mack trass Little. Two msn in Washington Territory, James Grimes and James Irwin recently while going to their homes a few miles from Walla Walla got into a dispute about driving, Irwin in sisting that Grimes was drtviug too fsst. In order to step it hs reaches ovsr from the back seat, where be was sitting, aud took hold of the lines. This incensed Grimes,and both men were soon having a rough and tumble tight, which terminated in their drawing their knives and Grimes giving Irwin a fatal stab, from the effects of which be died soon after. A murder trial will take place at the next Court held at Walla Walla. Verily a small flame often spreads into a conflagration. That two lives should be mined over one man's style of driving is ex tremely ridiculous. Hot Forgotten. Mr Daniel Jones of this city has shown us a latter which he has received from John C Black, whom President Cleveland has ap pointed Commissioner of Pensions. Mr Jones was in Black's regiment during the war, and thinks he was one of the truest and best men in the service. He supposed Black had forgotten him long since, but when he learned that Black had been ap pointed Commissioner of Pensions, he wrote a letter congratulating him oa bis appoint ment, and in due time received an answer which shows that Mr Black has not forgot ten his old comrade in arm s. A Mixed up Writer. A writer from California to an Eastern Agricultural paper states that California reaches from British America to New Mexico. The fellow has an exalted opinoin oi his State which we of Oregon are un able to appreciate, not yet having learned that this S'ate waa only a California coun ty. It has higher aspirations than that,in fact hopes sometime to rival even the State itself, which its never failing crops, fine oil mate and natural advantages give its inhabitants a right to hope for, DMAH4TK The A ears at sYMwasvMe. Thejllrst act of the "Last Loaf was not concluded till the audience was delighted, "No former playing has excelled this," whispered the Brownsville public. Ths Hall, a large one, was crowded, and all ths stand ing room taken up. The energy of the Browosvitle Amateur Club of dramatists and comedians has become a wonder and de light to the citicn of our town, and ons success after another has been the Club's history. New scenery, new lights, and all the luxury of stags furniture are due te their pluck and talent. Here is the east, Mark Ashton was played by Mr Matt Farleigh. The following are his points iu tragedy. First, he has a keen and correct conception o: situations. NMfl an artist, he frames himself into a scene like a picture. He has a good voice ; and has svi lently had some good training. He has an alert, electrical movement, to the two comedies that followed, he played the part of an Irishman. The curious mixture of harsh ness and courtesy, puguacity and tenderness. that characterise the Irish, he allowed to perfection. He waa supported by Mr Qraut Johnson an lick Hustle. Mr Johnson has a good voice, and an attractive manner. He is adapted to noble parts in which fraukness, honesty, and heroic success are presented. The audience heard all he aaid. Mr Hart WiWou appeared as Chuhbs in the first play. He is a natural humorist ; the only criticism being that he stammered fearfully. Hut the audience understood. At Chubhs, he ought to stammer. (See play.) Mr Younger took the part of Hairy, and he made & tine im preseioa. Miss America Kirk played Mr. Ashton. Mirs Kirk has a commanding pres ence, and is a graceful player. She arose to the spirit of the play like a professional. Lilly was played by Miss l.ibbie Kay. She is a general favorite, and where the character is one of gentleness and amiability, she is charming. Miss lens Galbraith played the servant girl to the Ashton 's. Besides a good voice aud pieaaaat manner, natural sincerity and a strong countenance eahance Miss Hal brsith s acting. She played all her parts well. Iu the comedies that followed, several others appeared to a very doe advantage. Among these were Masters Dellie Johnson and Willie lialbraitb. Miss Gertie Mariatto, and ('apt Von Hagen. Your reporter omitted to say of ( apt. Von Hagen. that, in the "Lest Loaf,' he showed a decided aptness for siuister characters. He sustained Caleb Hanson very well. Miss Mariatto is s neat actress of very considerable promise. In parts requiring the selfish or coquettish she Is hue. Master .al brsith made a most satisfactory negro Mr Pheney sustained his parts well He acted the Heathen Chinee. The proceeds of the evening go toward some local interest of ths city, snd for these considerable, as well aa for the refined diversion, all the people wish the best of success te the amateurs. MtCsn. The tiara r I. Tina week wheat may be quoted at 44 cents iu Albany, tie. in Portland, H7c. in San Francisco, 'Mz in Chicago for August, Dealsrs in New York predict an advance of lo cents by July 1st, on account of the great shortage in fall wheat ; hot aa the spring wheat through the East is only just sown and nothing can be predicted about it, no great reliance can be placed on such prophesies. Oats are 3o cents in Portland. In Albany flour remains the same as last week, to.braa fit, middlings $16 ; some hams are marked at 16 cants retail, strawberries sell rapidly at Ik cents, with sales for 400 or 500 boles a day. 10 cent bunches ef radishes sod ooions increase in six. Asparagus, a most health ful plant, does not seem U be appreciated, 3 bunches for 25o is the price fer it. Batter at 10c and eggs ditto hardly pay for thir handling, yet a gentleman the other day frees a southern state said be need to gat g cents, so that 10 cents seemed fair to htm. b Mart! with Straw brrrlr. Strawberries arjour weakness, and this is a faet Mr. Wiillsm Peacock has known for several years. Having a generous heart and feeliog for the hun gry editor, laot Friday he deposited In oar keeping as many boxes as there were men who made up the majority In the celebrated Electoral Commission of '76 ; and such straw kernes, large luscious.enticlng stomach fillers. Kpi iurus himself would approve them. Specimens cf the same may be son at aoy time at Conrad Meyers. May Mr. Peacock live long and raise many straw. berries. Since writing the above Mr Peacock brought two more boxes to our office, both of the Sharpies variety In one there were only seventeen strawberries, two of the nam ber measured 6 inches in circumference and nearly all of the rest between 5 and 6 inches. making them aa large as ths avsrage hens egg. Cockadoodledo, A Big FST far a Oregoa last llutisn. The Brownsville Woolen Mills, of this county, were awarded the geld medal at the World's Exposition at New Orleans fer their splendid exhibition ef woolen goods. This is an honor deserving of some crowing over. Coming from such a source it puts a feather in tiie cap of these woolen mills which en titles tbem to stand beside any mill in the Ucited States. There are hundreds of mills with greater capacities, but nene which turn oat better work. It is this fact which is giv ing them such an extended reputation on the Pacific Coast. Oregon people, particularly, should take a pride ia wearing clothes made of Brownsville woolen goods.

The "Eugene Guard" gives the fallow ing account of a aerloua affray in that county : Monday, May 4th, Oscar and Frederick Funk met Thomas Anderson on a trail, all being reeidenta of Indian Creek in the western part of Lane county on the road to Lewr Hlualaw, when they assaulted him with clubs, the parties having had a dispute oyer some laud a short time pre vious. On Wedneaday, May eih, the twe Funks and a man named Holt went to the ranch of a Mr Duncan, where Anderson and Duncan were putting iu garden when Frederick Funk and Holt commenced clubbing Anderson and Oscar Funk as saulted Duncan. In the affray that fol lowed Anderson ahtbbed Frederick Funk, when Holt and Oacar Funk ran.
