They are about our size, and we suggest one for Albany, with the established provision that no pie shall be brought less than a full inch in thickness between the crusts, and that dried apples he ruled out. O This practice of our neighboring cities of sending everybody out of employment to Albany is decidedly thin. Donation oyster soup is nowhere. It is resulting in ' this city being overcrowded by a horde of idle men. Housewives get their wit scared out of them nearly every day by applications for something' to eat () The N. W. races is the proper name for the State fair ; yet the exhibit of stock l always good, and what there i in agricul tural products is superior ; nevertheless, though, everything center around the races. O Booms are apt to be re-acting. Steady growth is what wc want. The machine shops now and something else soon after. A thousand a year for the national OMMM of 'y0 will do. " We must then exceed suOO. O It is repeatedly ailedged by many that the more bummers and drunkards there are around the streets the more business is be ing done. As a matter of fact it only in dicates business for saloons and police of ficers ; very little for groceries, dry goods merchants, and newspapers, except a source for items for the latter. Anyway deliver us from such liveliness. O The M. A. T. propose in a short time to go from Albany to the Bay by mil, and so will many others. The ability to do this is an evr-nt of much moment to Albany peo ple. After trains begin running on the W. V St C R. R. travel to Corvallis and places rcyond will be almost entirely by Albany. This city is bound to become the distribut ing point of Western Oregon. O The cash premiums offered by the State fair for horse racing; were $7,921. for Agri cultural products, etc- $76. No wonder the exhibit of the latter was slim, and there was little bedde the former. The idea of the State's giving $5000 towards running a horse racing show, permitting the most open kind of pool selling, U as ridiculon as a hog in a Mother Hubbard. A highly sensational dog case has been the subject of gossip reccently in the city, and very nearly the subject for a criminal prosecution, so" near that the J. P's. hadrnn opportunity to refuse to have anything to do with the matter. Its seems that a dog , it..: 1.1 . 1 . .1. ! 1 . i 1 nig ill uiuv. iu mi a inuu lit nig uh: onposite side of the block. . Of course the father was mad ; so he captured the dog, put it in a sack and threw it in the Willam ette. Tne owner of the dog put its value at $50 and tried to have his neighbor arrest ed for grand larceny ! Mrs Beese Mrs. Keese, who has been lecturing in different parts of Oregon under the aus pices of the W. C. T. U., will soon be in Albany, when she should be greeted by a full house. Mrs. Reese was the organizer of the Crusade in Ohio, and is one of the most sterling, pure minded, logical, temper ance women of the country, to whom it is a pleasure to listen. Admirers of Miss Wiilard, Miss White, Miss Leayitt and Mrs Foster should not miss hearing their older sister in this work, Mrs. Reese. The time set for Mrs. Reese's lectures here is Saturday evening, at 7 :30 o'clock and Sab bath afternoon at 4 o'clock, at the Opera House. Besides the lectures good music will be furnished for the occasions. Our citizens should turn out generally on both occasions and hear this eminent woman. On Saturday afternoon at 3 o'cloc Mrs. Reese will meet the members of the W. C. T. U. at their hall over F. M. French's jewelry store. itrath mf Lee Member? Last Wednesday morning, Leo, son of Mr. and Mrs. Moses Sternberg, aged 2 years 9 months and 1 7 days, was taken suddenly ill with spasms and died by noon of that day. Previous to then he had been well. The cause of his sudden illness could not be ascertained. Funeral services took place Thursday afternoon. Leo was a bright little fellow and his loss is a great one to his parents and brothers and sisters, who have the sympathy of all in their affliction. Accident at Peoria. last Friday Mr. John Coon, of Peoria, was loading a wagon with gravel, near that place, when an overhanging bank fell on him, almost literally burying him alive. Several men working near him dug him out in time to save his life. His left rm received three breaks and he was bruised generally in a severe manner. Latest re ports announce him as slowly recovering from the effects of the accident . t .t) tc ah t. Last Saturday Mr. H. Hulburt brought to the County Clerks office a large cayote scalp which he assisted in capturing on Friday. He received $5 from the county. In addition to this the citizens of his neigh borhood paid $20, on account of the great damage done to sheep in that neighljorhood by cayotes, a reward of that amount having been offered for each scalp. Irkct Plrkcd. Wm Gird, of Benton county, had his pockets picked of $175 at the State Fair.and David Froman, of this city, left the institu tion short $50 invested in the same way. We defy the public to narrate anything of the kind with a newspaper man as the vic tim. He is too sha poor to be taken in that way. owed ie. R. Lowell was arrested last Saturday at the instance of Ubbe Peters and taken be fore Justice Dorris. The charge was that he was trying to abscond without paying his debts, he being in debt to Mr. Peters in the sum of $10. His trial will take place in this city to-morrow (Saturday.) Cloaks.

Hill should be punish ed for criminal carelessness and sent to the penitentiary for life. Polks Oregon, Washington, and Idaho Gazettcr gives Albany's population as 1725 and that of Corvallis as SUM. It should sell out and go East. Albany has 5OO more population than Corvallis for fun or a new hat. A young man in the city from the coun try was boa .ting Monday morning that he came to Albany Saturday with a X X and Sunday evening he hadn't a cent left. He seemed to think there was something smart about it. The following dispatch from New York would indicate that the passenger agent re cently interviewed in Portland did not know what he was talking about : New York, Sept 2 1st The Oregon Pacific is nu.himr its wav eastward from Yaciuina h v. and will connect with the Chicago St Northwestern in Idaho in two years. A , PHUt nn W .lr.MH.v rnlnr of last week Jake Butts was driving his team across the R. R. track in front of an engine when the whole concern was struck about in the middle. Both horses were killrd.thc wagon was demolished and Butts had a col lar bone broken. The world bas to have ha careless men in order to make the drama of life complete. The project for the improvement of the entrance to Yaquina Bay is to build a brush and stone jetty about 4OOO feet long with shore protection, and to close the rock obstructed south channel and force the ebb against the reef of Yaquina head, with the view of providing a central channel of least depth of twelve feet at mean low water. The amount already expended on the pro ject is $150,000, and there has been built 2517 feet of jetty to average half tide, and 45O feet of high spur jetty for shore protection. The appropriation now avail able, $75,000, will be used for continuing the jetty on the present plan, and i expect ed to make the best depths already obtain ed more permanent Ex. Among the funny things said about Al bany U the following from the New, of Portland : "The Oregon Pacific railroad will give Corvallis the grand go hv," said a gentleman who has just returned from a trip up the valley, yesterday. "They will make Albany their headquarters, but they arc charging the town a big price for the luxury. Already they have been guaranteed the equivalent of $40,000 or $50,000 for bring ing the road to that town ; now they ask $14, ocx) more for the establishment of round houses, machine shops and repair shops, with every prospect of getting it. Albany has a better location than Corvallis, and there is more water in the Willamette there than at the latter town ; besides, its citizens display a greater amount of enterprise. Corvallis will be only a whistling station if its citizens do not show more enterprise.

Whatever has been said of the Fair any year In the past for many years, may be repeated this year j with the execp- tlon, perhaps. that the attendance was larger than usual, uncommonly fine weather bles sing the occasion. The principal attraction has always been the horse racing. That Is the cynosure of the affair. It Is the molass es that draws. It was the Drmockat man's fortune to be present on the great day of the week In this respect. We saw Repetla, owned by Matlock, run a mllc.iu a mile and a quarter dash, In t '44 ; and Comet, owned by Duncan, shoot around the track In a trot in 2:23V, the fastest time ever made In the N. W., If not on the Coast. This too was in the 2:4c race. Three heats were trotted ; In the first two by a big effort Com et's driver keeping her down to about 3 .? but he got provoked at the driver of one of the other horses, and, in order to distance him, let out the sorrel In a grand burst of speed, leaving Cora II. and Coquetta at about the three-quarter post when she cross ed under the line. This was a very injudi cious thing to do. A scrub running race.half mile, between two horses named for the oc casion, was a feature of the day, and had Its countepart on most of the other days. The exhibits at the pavilion had the merit of being good so far at thev went ; but there were so many empty shelves that It looked exceedingly slim. The display of cereals by George tic Is haw was the redeem ing feature of the exhibit. It was a magni ficent one, and cannot be surpassed in the 17. S. The display of apples was fine.so far as quality was concerned, and there were a few vegetables, nearly all respectable ap pearing. The front part of the building seemed to be used as a salesroom for differ ent things. As a whole there is no com parison between the Mechanic's fair and the State fair in the matter of the exhibition of the results of our stale Industries. The exhibition of stock and poultry did credit to the Fair. It compared with that of most any State Fair. We have blooded stock in Oregon, indicating a healthy taste in this branch. In the matter of premiums Linn county came in for a very small slice. W F Bar rows, of Shedd, took the first premium on a span of brood mares, his roadster stallion Jackson, farm team, and colt mentioned several weeks ago ; Elkins& Millard second premium on their Cleveland Bay ; Wm McCulloch second premium on horse of all work ; Frank Trite a first premium on his two draft stallions ; las Barrett the first premium on a yearling colt ; Jas Garrett premium on work stallion and roadster mare. Alfred Wheeler, of this city, had a fine ex hibit of blooded sheep, getting several pre miums, and Mr S W Gaines, of Sck. cap tured the cake on poultry .getting twenty-five first and eleven second premiums, C P Burkhart exhibited some broom corn in the pavilion, and Laura Vance several pieces of fancy work. A Blaker, of Shedd, received a diploma for cooling creamer, swimming churn and butter worker. Nearly all the exhibits were from Marion county, and of course most of the premiums were taken by Marion county people. Friday afternoon in a shoot at clay pid geons between D B Monteith, of this city, and Evans, the crack shot of Portland, the former won, the score being 34 to 31, the low score being on account of the manner of holding their guns. The Be v tow's vplntsa Following is the Ochoco Review i opinion on the Treasury robbery case there. As a great many in this county are interested in the matter we give It to our readers : Several witnesses were examined both for the prosecution and defense, but no evidence was brought out which, to us, appeared sufficient to warrant the authorities in hold ing them, or even to pointto them as being in any way connected with the robbery, yet the justice held them to await the action of the next grand jury, Backus In the sum of $1500 and Charlton $1000. Both furnished bonds. While, with all other citizens of the county, we are anxious that the mysteries of this robbery be ferreted out and the guilty parties brought to justice, we do not favor the accumulation of cost to the county by binding any one over on uch evidence as waa produced at the examination, and do not think an arrest should have been made on such frivolous testimony. We believe In the law being vindicated, but cannot justify putting tax-payers to extra cost or inconveniencing any persons by holding them under bonds unless something def inite can be proven. Since the action has begun these men, both express themselves anxious to have the matter full investigated. ! air wtttetf. The fellow who wrote to the Oregoniam from Salem, (it is thought here A. II. him self) intimating a "leak" in the money drawer of the ticket office, in charge of Mr J II Burkhart during the State fair, is certainly half witted, else he would have investigated matters a little before making such a serious charge. Mow the truth is a receipt was given Secretary Urcgg e ery moraine for the number of ticket- taken, and every evening the receipts and tickets were balanced, and when the lair closed the balance was correct,rendering any fraud impossible. If the correspondent had as certained this he could have saved himself considerable trouble. He was certainly very spiteful to make the charge he did without doing so. Mi. Burkhart has ob taincd credentials from the officers of the State Association showing the correctness of hi dealing with the fair and will uo to Portland with thern, when the Oregouum - mm will have to retract or a libel suit will fol low. There is considerable indignation ex pressed at the foolish charge. aeeMeatalljr abet. On last Sunday evening, Frank Dickens, living in the Forks of the Santlam, in com - pany with a young friend who was carrying gun was walking along where the fir brush had been cut and burned. Frank stepped on a fir pole which sprang up when he stepped off it and caused the boy, who was walking behind him, to stumble and fall, when the gun went off and struck r rank in the lower part of the heel, going through the lower or fleshy part of the heel, and coming out it entered and went through the ball of the foot. The wound though painful is not dangerous. inleldrd. Charley Smith, brother of Capt. Smith, of "The Three Sisters," well known in this city, committed suicide, at his home, at Sa lem, last Sunday evening and died Monday afternoon The act was performed with a case knife and morphine. At the same time Smith attempted to kill one of his children, who was present, but failed. He had been drinking hard, and that was the matter, r ew though who knew him. would consider him iruiltv of such a crime even when intoxicated. ray vp. We have placed accounts duf us on sub .

Albany must have them. aide Walk The greatest evidence of lack of public spirit among the people of Albany is the deplorable condition of her sidewalks. Al bany has in more than one way shown commendable enterprise, pluck and pro e w gressive tendency, but in this matter of sidewalks she is woefully mossbackish. Our city fathers ordered the walks all re paired last spring and many citizens im mediately put their walks In repair. Many others did not, and when we ask why the Council does not compel their repair we are told that that body has no ordinance under which these needed repairs can be entorc- ed. People on all sides are asking why the Council does not pass such an ordln ancc but no satisfactory answer has yet been vouchsafed. Any member of the Council has tbe floor "and may speak with out a motion. t'tty officers. A petition was circulated a few days ago among First Ward voters asking Dr. J. L.
