Last Friday John Gail came to Albany
and when be started for tlie country to
the evening about 8 o'clock was aa near
.drunk as a man ever comes outside of
Congress, lie stopped at the depot a few
minute previous to train time and began
running things in a genuine mining camp
style. Getting too unruly Constable Cal.
Burkhait attempted to arrest him, when
ho showed fight, and, getting outside,
picked up a big rock and hit Mr Burk
hart a severe blow over one of his eyes,
and started for Albany prairie, where be
had been taking charge of seme stock for
a few dsys, Io was followed, arrested
and placed in the city caliboose. Satur
day he was tak?n before Recorder lienton,
acting a Justice of the Peace and waa
sentenced to ttvsnty-tlve dsys in the
county j iil. Hs now form i one of a trip
let theie, Carnal and "jihet Iron" being
the other two.
Mr QaU claims that jast previous to his
arrest be bad $30 in a parse in his pocket ;
that when be was arrested several were pres
ent, one of whom, a stranger, he asserts put
his hand in his pocket, and. others say, made
the remark that he had money. When Gail
looked for his parse afterwards it was gone.
A little investigation would he proper. Gail
has had a good reputation in the country
where he has worked, and i said to be a
peaceable man when not crazed by liqaor.

A Big Oat Story
When it comer to anything big Mr Jeff
Creel will not take a retired seat for any
body, evei Thomas Alph:u. The first ef
the week he brought four bushels of oats in
two bushel tasks to Albany. Two bushels
weighed 114 pounds and the other two 116
pounds, an average of 57 pounds. The four
eushels, machine measure, were equal to
6 14-30 by weight. This it a big story, but
a true one, and Mr Creel defies the world
and the Forks of the Santiam to approach it.
The Ureal Trottlag Race.
The great trotting race between Syphon
and Jane L., the get of Hambletonian
Membrino and Altamont was tbe most
exciting ever held in Oregon, Four beats
were trotted, Syphon winning tbe second
and third and Jane L., tbe flrst and
fourth, Syphon being distanced In the last
heat. This of course, gave the race to
Jans L, Thirty or forty thousand dollars
changed hands over the result, which,
though, decides nothing, ss Syphon's de-
feat was due entirely to his breaking, The
time made was 2:32, 'l:WA, 2:3234, 2:31.
Through the sake.
Barring smeke and dust and heat and a

Brownsville road, into the heart of Center

with the Uscklemsn property on the loft,
one feels that he is in as rich and fertile a
farming country ts the sun ahtuoe on.
No route through Linn county presents a
greater number of well kept farms and
farm buildings than does what is known
as the Brownsville road. Among the
particularly noticeable ones, to the signs
at the corner of Mr. Canons place,
which lead "12 miles to Brownsville" and
"9 miles to Albany," are those of C D
Burkhsrt, the Kroman's, Joslah Fllnn,

lion of ths said railroad and wagon bridges provide at

In conauleratlon 4 the foregoing each subscriber
hereto contracts and sgrees with the cosupany to
tasks payment to them of Uis sum act opjioaite hia
analurs at the foot hereof, In three c.ul install

Ouc third when the railroad Is completed to ths
craealng place from Kenton to Unn county, provided
such place la within one mile of the city i4 Albany
and temporary meana of transportlug pasetngera and

One-third when the construction of the permanent

In case of the subscriptions In land, or water pow

$60,000 seems like a large aum: but
when it is closely observed bow it is to be
made op it is not extravsgant. For in
stance, a perpetual water power for tbe
car shops will be accepted as a part of It,
and tho Railroad company would not con
sider 10,000 unreasonable figures on that
Uem.tben there will be land for the shops,
which it will be necessary to have ss lrte,
st least as 200x800 feet, aud rights of way
and land for ths railroad, items which will
count up so thst the amount of cash sub
scriptions will not be very Isrgs, provided
sf course the people of Lino county sis j
liberal in granting laud, water powers and
rights of way at fslr figures. Tbe valuta
to Albany snd Linn county of this rail
road wbsn completed through to bores
city cannot well be sstinuUed. It will bs

Kpirti. it taxes enterprise to build up a
country. Now is a good tlmo to display
it.
rlallo ar Alfcaay.
With two or three exceptions the pa
pers of Oregon havo not noticed tbe popu
lation of the cities in which they are pub
lished, although the census lass been com
pleted some time. The figures have been
givon only in tbe case of Astoria, Portlsnd
sud Eugene. The reason of this in most
cases Is because the population has not
come up to the expectations of tbe people.
In otner words hats fallen off, the coun
try having gaiool what ths cities nave
lost, the press not liking to msks a poor
snowing for their cities. The Democrat
is published to give tbe news, and benoe
at its first opportunity gives tbe flguron
on Albany for 1883, Here tbey are : 1050.
In 1880 tbey were 1867. This is easily ac
counted for. There are not quite as many
people hero ; but tbe difference Is not as
much as ths figures abow. Over 50 In
dians In the census of 1880 do not appear
in that of P485 and quite a number of
others can be accounted for in a manner
to show that the real population of tbe
i...u I hoi. ir
v.j u o iiowiiviawu t oi j iiuie, 1 1 auyi
Though the figures are not as lsrge as we
would like to see them it is a fact that tbey
are larger by 100 to 200 than a year and a
half ago. For Its size Albany is a prosper
ous, live city. But if It would inorease its
population materially its citizens may as
well face the fact that it must be by some
new influences, Astoria has its fisheries,
Salem its insane Asylum, penitentiary
and Capitol and Eugene its State Univer
sity. To these a slight inorease of popu
lstion can be traced. Albany must have
something now, and manufactories are
wh at they must be, woolen mills, car fac
tories, etc. We have a good start in this
line. Let us increase it. It pays to call
spades spades. Nothing is gained by
claiming 2000 population if It is 1(150. Tbe
census wjll be published and the correct
figures wiU speag for themselves.
A Horrible Triplet Tragedy.
One of the most horrible tragedies in the
history of the Willamette Valley occurred iu
tho Mohawk Valley, near Eugene,last Sunday
night. Tbe circumstances in the case were
about at follows, at nearly at can be ascer
tained from facts and circumstances. About
two yeart ago a Mrt Evans was divorced
from her hatband. Shortly afterwarda David
Hoggs sought her hand in marriage. She con
tented ; but meeting D W Church, from
California in the meantime, the went back
on Hoggs, and married Church. Hoggs was
jealous and the two yean which have elaps ¬
ed only added to the fire in hit botom.
About two weeks ago he and Church had a
quarrel, bitter aod unrelenting. Last Sunday
night Hoggt went to Church's houte, and
rapped heavily on the house with the butt of
his rifle. Church came out, when Hoggs
ttepped between him and the door and shot
him through the back, killing him probably
1nttantly. Then Boggt went into the houte
and assaulted Mrt Church, probably with
his gun, driving her out doors, in her night
apparel, several rods from the house, where
he assaulted her with a large ttone. Their
bodies were found on Monday, Mrt Church
still being alive, though not expected to live
Hoggs' shanty was visited and broken open
when his body was found hanging from a
beam, dead as a mummy, appearance indicat
ing that he had goue directly to that place
from the scene of ths murder.

A Child Killed and several Injured on

Last Monday noon the excursion train

tho Summit, for dinner. A new nnglneor
who had gone down from Corvallla to
meet the train and brinU back to Corval

water tank, and after getting water started
back to couple to tho train. In going up
the grade It took considerable steam, so
that when the onglne began on tho down
grade towards the train It had oblalnod

Just returning from tho first table. AS
together very fortunately only psrt oftne
excursion psrly were on board. Tho
shock cauNed by ths contact of tho engine
with the cars threw those on tmsrd pro
mhcuously over the train. The cars I ic

Parrlsh, of this city, was sitting ou the
front seat of ono of the. uilddla csrs, with
s Ave year old daughter by her side, or In
her lap. The shock threw them forward
past tho end of ths oar. Mrs Iarkln saved
herself, but her llttln girl roll through to

not seeing the approaching engine, did
nothing to protect blmseir, lie was
thrown violently against the post, aud

his isce in-big badly mutillatod. An old
lady from Halem, Mrs, Fettljobn was Just
getting on a oar. Hho was thrown to the
ground, but received no serious injuries.
Another .'ady received several bruises,
Otherwise thsit this ilttlo dsmsge was
done. Several Albany people, among
others Alf Marshall snd Hsrry Noel

this city were st olnnsr.
Previous ti the accident the party bad
been one of life and happtneess. They
wore havlug a bilarlotta lime, Just such a
