In our imaginations wc sec long rows o! brick along Second and Third Street and add another thousand to the price of our property. Thi U line for lover of excite ment ; but It Is going to take, bcidc the machine shops, jajinrlal and other Indus trie to keep things at the present water mark. I O Peop'.c on the corners generally place Al bany's population ft 3,000. Certainly a large number of strangers arc seen on our streets. But It should be remembered many of them are on'.y transient boarders and are feeling their way. O The square in front of tho Court House will make a good location for the Oregon Pacific office. It will always be regretted though that the city did not long ago pur chase the property and make a permanent public park of it. O Some little stir in foot racing matters is reported from different part of the county. Few know what they are betting on when they bet on a foot rice. There are more eel and suckers in the bag than trout cr salmon. O The demand for property in this city U almost entirely In a southeast direction from the business center of the city. What in crease there has been in price I to be found mostly In the Second and Third Ward ; yet some of the best homes in the city are in the First Ward. o Albany now has two weekly, a semi weekly and two daily papers, and yet the price of wheat cannot squeeze above 63 cent. O If shooting galleries were only patronized by Chinamen we wouldn't kick at all ; but It is mostly the boys who support them and that isn't nice at all. O The M. A. T. understand the Oregon stone, with several other State stones, it h ing neglected in a wood shed near the Washington monument. Sometime it is to be placed in position. O A few days ago we heard an old settler boast that Albany was booming with a ven geance, a property is now within 25 of what it was in 1870. Think he is on the wrong side of the mark . Taken t lava Asylaae. Last week we suggested that an old man named Luke Crandall, residing west of this city, was in a bad way mentally, and would leceive the treatment he needed at Salem. Saturday he was taken before Judge Whit I rey and examined by Drs. Wallace and Mi ton and declared mom compos mrmtis. He is now residing at Salem. After a fashion Crandall was a poet. The Democrat sev eral months ago published as a curiosity one of his poems, entitled "The. Song of the Hammer," an effusion containing several good point. One of the sad events of Crendall's life was the desertion by his wife several years ago, she "going off with a handorner man." la elarra California. A letter to a gentleman of thi city from Rev. E. T. Lockard, who was President of the Albany Collegiate Institute for awhile, announces his settlement at Capenterie, a place about twelve miles from Santa Bar bara, in Southern California, where he has the pastorate of the Presbyterian Church Land there sells for as higfi as $300 an acre for agricultural and horticultural purposes. Lima beans are the great staple. English walnut and apricots are also largely raised there, as well a other semi-tropical fruits, like oranges, lemon, lime, olive,etc. Rev. Lockard' friends in Albany will rejoice at his pleasant situation. ' o Important Hales. Since our last issue important real estate Coles In this city were the Smead property, 53 acres, in the suburbs of the city, o W H Goltra for $8,000 ; the Gradwohl block, by Geo E Chamberlain to N H Allen, for $'4500 ; a few feet front of Baltimore prop erty, just east of Deyoe & Robson's to Judge R S Stratum, for $800 ; the 8chmeer cor ner, from Johnny Schmecr to William Vance, for $61 00.

Cass Creek Vt-grtaStea. When Matt Scott, of Center Precint, and W 8 Peters, of this city, returned from Camp Creek, beyond Prineville, the latter part of last week they bought with them a good selection of vegetables for the Demo crat office, in order to show what can be done in that country. Linn county gard ncrs will not have much to boast of after examining this supply. It consists of a cabbage of immense magnitude, a very large rutabago turnip, a mountain of a beat, a big carrot, and onions that would make Elder Shea think he was called for. For this winter's supply we are under obligations to L N Liggett and Sam Cowan, both former Linn county boys, sympathizers of editors' small pickings. These vegetables speak for the fertility of the soil at Camp Creek. Cloeesl Is, A Scio precinct subscriber tells us that they are having a heap of fun in the foot hills beyond Scio over the predicament one of the citizens there is placed in by being shut off from the main thoroughfare. His land is back from the road, which he has nbeen reaching by a lane through a neigh bora fields, but worked by the county. Recently the neighbor, on account of some personal grievance shut up the lane, and now Mr. Clark the inside gentleman, 14 ntstling for an opening into the outer world. It is probable the County Court' will be called upon to throw oil on the troubled waters. The College. The ollege is again fortunate in secur ing a instructor of music, Miss Anna L. Peabody, recently from New York City and Chicago. Mis Peabody is a musician of large experience and unquestioned skill. The Art Department In dharge of Prof. Mftchell U filling up rapidly. The College now offers advantages equal to any Insti tution in the State and we are pleased to know that the number of students is m- creaainir dailv. Quite a number are from anroaa. 0 ee Work ea the B. . Rails have now been laid to within short distance of the bridge at this city, and will reach the bridge in a short time, when the piers will be ballasted with gravel taken from the river at the end of the switch, to be built, grading on which Is being done We ore often asked about now rnucn ox ' W- W . . a, a the road will be built beyond Albany this vear : but must admit that we are not rrateri in the matter. X nere are vanou - . m. 1 rumors in reference to It. It is probable some work will be done. ' 4 Kilted a Bear. Last Monday morning "Billy Mack," the barber, returned from a hunting expedition in the foothills, and immediately hastened to the County Clerk's office, where he re ceived a bounty on a bear's scalp. Billy killed it himself. Chasing it up a tree he filled it with buckshot and then relieved it of its topnot. It was not an old bear ; but a young and timid one. Cloak 1 Cloaks ! Don't forget that N. H. Allen k Co. have lust received a large stock of the latest styles in cloaks from New York, which they oiler at unheard of low prices. Beet aad Shoes, N. H. Allen k Cj. bare in stock a full line of boots, shoes and rubbers, which will be sold at very low prices. Tares, Go to N. H. Allen & Co. for your knitting vara. Thev have in stoofc a large line of German knitting, Saxony, etc., in all colors. Heap ef fnlselised, When the Ortgomtan published Secretary Gregg's statement, given In the Democrat last week, In reference to the "leak" at the State fair, It said that anyway it got it In formation from the President of the Agri cultural Association and Chairman of the H nance committee. The following letter from Mr. Apperson, the President, will show what an enormous falsehood this watt The long and short of the matter Is this: Six years ago this fall Al. Holman, Associate editor of the Ortgomian, was in Albany at the scene of the death of the Linn County fair. At the time he and Mr. Burkhart had a "falling out," and since then Mr. Holman has been waiting for an opportunity to show his spite As it didn't come worth a rent he manufactured an opportunity and tilled It with falsehoods. We give Mr. Appcrson's letter in answer to the following tuctlon I I. Did you tell Al. Holman that you thought that the shortage on gate receipt wa at the railroad irate t a. Did you men tion mv name in any connection with the shortage or "leak W 3. .Did you tell him that you thought or susnicioned anything wrong at the railroad irate ? 4. Did you tell Holman that you thought or suspidoiied me of being accountable for the, shortage on gate receipts f Orroon City, Sept. jyth. 18S6. . . limrkkort ; Dbar Sir I am in receipt of yours of the 37th Inst. I would have met you In Portland, but I had agreed to meet Judge Boise on that day, and could not go to Port land. A to each of your questions one, two, three and four, I can say without any hesitation .."' to all. Mr DeLashmutt was present and heard all that I said to Holman relative to the gate receipts not coming up to last year, and from the attend ance this year compared with last year. I was satisfied that we did not get pay for near all the persons in attendance. I had no more ground to charge you with being dishonest than I had to charge anyone of the ticket-venders or gate keepers of dealing dishonestly with the society. I can say that I don't believe that you or anyone who had charge of the tickets or gates are chargeable with the "leak." You will remember that I spoke to you and the other gate keepers during the fair about the apparent discrep ancy between the gate receipt and the number of people apparently on the ground. I had no thought then, or since, of you.or any one whom we cmployed,dea!ing unfair ly with the board. I think that we came to the proper conclusion when we decided our fences were bad and that large number got in on one ticket each day. I regret that Mr. Holman should attempt to gratify his per sonal spleen against fou, and at 'the same time leave the Impression that I at any time hould have aid anything against you or either of the persons 'in charge of the gates. I am,respectfully, J. T. ArrKRaox. Will Be lesatei Mere. Last Wednesday a citiaen's committee consisting of J. L. Cowan, A. Hacklcman, John Crawford.!-:. J. LantUng, W. L. Vance and Milton Hale, took the subscription pa per for the location of the machine and car shops of the 0. P. at this city, to the man agement of the road at Cory alii. Of the $15,000 required ficsooo was subscribed. In cluding the $&aoo subscribed by Mr. 1 tack sman. In order to complete the matter the officers of the road agreed to contribute $3,000, Messrs. Hacklcman and Crawford added $1000 each to their subscription, Mr. Vance $50 and Messrs. Lanning and Hale each $100, leaving the sum of $750 to be raised. This amount was raised yes terday and the matter was to be settled with the Company last evening. Work wilt be begun on the shops in a few day in oroer to nave a place here for the com J pany s rolling stock during the coming winter. The Drmocrat has already en larged upon the advantage to follow from thi action. It offers our city the oppor tunity to take the lead among the cities of the Valley. Temperate action and good judgment wilt bring about fruitful results. We must keep adding to what we already have, giving those who come here some thing to keep them In our midst. Certain ly our city's prospects are very bright. Will MMMl y Ifce . r. The Oregon Pacific continues to do the bulk of the freight business of this part of Oregon, extending north to Salem and south to the very limits of the State. Each trip of the "Yaqulna" U followed by the receipt of large consignments from San Francisco, distributed at Albany to differ ent parts of the valley. The promptness of the company has been marked in the de livery of freight, commendably so ; the present low condition of the water and the long period between freight trains on the O. & C., though, has somewhat retarded mat ters, but unavoidably. Other transporta tion lines have reduced rata op account of the O . P. The merchant and farmers of (he V alley appreciate these facts, and, even could they get equal rates, will now stand by the Oregon 1'acthe, because It U the road that has stood by them. It has added several cents to the price of wheat ; ha re duced the price of goods by reason of low freights, and will continue in the line it ua iakcn in the past. The freight department Is being well managed and this tact will continue to do much to make the road al ways popular among business men. K4 Very unjustly somebody has been telling around that Albany was booming at a terri fic rate. There is some mistake about this. We are not booming ; but we are Improv ing at a very encouraging speed. There is considerable building going on in the city ; but the amount is exaggerated by r ortiand papers. A correspondent to a Portland paper said that board was so high that strangers could not stand it. This wus a falsehood. Board is just about the same as it has been here right along, $4 to $6 a week. Strangers are not being imposed on in the matter as they are in booming town. Knowing the liability to reactions from big booms, having already had experience in the matter.our citizens regret very much seeing the idea go abroad that we are boom ing. Evidently some one desires to injure us. This fact, though, is worth digesting. Ws have begun a healthy, reliable growth, which we propose to keep up.
