The Red Crown Mill of this city hare been grinding tome that would take the griddle away from much found in the East branded AI. The M. A. T. speaks from experience O Seventeen out of thirty-four candidates for Alderman in the recent N. Y. City elec tion were liquor dealers. City elections now -a -days are manipulated almost com pletely by whiskey men. O Some one has made the facetious remark that the more lawyers there are to retire from practice in Albany the leas is the amount of business per capita. Lawyers, though, are used to having such remarks made about them. They have been accus ed of taking the kernel and giving their client the shuck so much that it has become a part of the profession to smile at such digs. O If all the dogs in Albany were taxed a neat revenue would be raised. As it is $25 will cover the receipt There was a time when Albany was noted for its low down dives. The M. A. T. has heard the remark made recently that in its worst Five Point days the lowest saloons were equal to some in Albany now, gamb ling tables being run nightly, infants and Chinamen being on a par with men. We are only posted from hearsay, and this mav be an injustice ; if so the M. A. T. will re tract for those who have nude the state ments, if some one will step up and defy the "aJ legator." O In behalf of many farmers the M. A. T. will say that some "city" hunters had bet ter look a little out this winter about how they trespass on other people's property in order to waste powder on . ducks and mud hens. Many Oregon hunters are outrage ously careless and some farmers do not re joice at running the varied risks contingent on miscellaneous hunting. Mu ileal mm4 Literary One of the finest local musical and liter ary entertainments of the season will be that given by the members of the Presby terian Church this Friday evening.

"Would you mind helping me out at the convention next week, come now." Would a cannery be supported here. Would it not be a good idea to shovel the moss off our backs and houses. Moss backs and moss houses are not wanted. Would you mind liquidating for your subscription. We want to buy our children some Christmas presents, cheap ones. deads that are Steeds. Stewart & S3x are displaying remarkably good taste in their selection of cutlery, knives, forks, etc., and are bound to work up a good trade for a first-class kind of goods. It pays to get the best. Their dis play of knives, forks, carvers, etc, is the best by many per cent ever seen in Albany. An examination will convince any one of this fact. If you want goods In this line that can be relied on call on S. & S. By the way get a Crokinole board of them. It is the best parlor game ever play ed. No exception. erses sVletl.

Situated on the north fork of the Santiam, reached either by way of Mehama or Sck). Formation porpheritic and granitic, with some sllicious slate. Veins supposed to be long to the Jurassic age. Quarts abundant, and "float" is found in most of the mountain streams. Dr. E. O. 8mlth,of Portltnd.once of Albany, claims to have discovered the mines, particularly the White Bull. That and the Canal Fork are the principal loca tions. The former has produced the Inest specimens of arborescent native gold in the world. The product of the White Bull has been somewhere between $5,000 and $60, ooasjust where la speculation. Work carried on spasmodically. Two mills have been built and both ' burned. About $25,000 were expended in machinerv,roads,etc. The mill was run in turn by stockholders. Rock said to assay $80 to the ton, milled only $5. The leads on Santiam noted for high assays. Mill did not run long. Several have since tried to run It, with variable success. An other mill was built about two years ago, and both were burned. Mine now aband oned. . In the Canal Fork mine some of the rock milled $30 to the ton. Lower down galena is found that assays $200 per tori In silver. Total product of the mine, $xxx Expense of working it, $.10,000. A 1 a-horse mill has been used. In other places leads, heavily sulphurated, exist, which have assayed as high as $1 jo per ton ; hut nothing has hcett done with them. On the little North Fork is the Capital mine prospected some. Con tains galena to a large extent Some assays 600 ounces per ton. Nearly all these claims are abandoned, "hvcry miner or other person who goes to the district comes back fullv satisfied with the idea that it is a rich country and there's millions in it." These things would indicate that the Santiam mines are mostly on paper at the present time. awe I Stall, Following are the completed footings of the assessment roll of Linn county for the year 1886.

Of a social nature ft was enlivened by a most enjoyable program gotten up on short notice. Misses Vesta Mason and Esther Marshal were heard in a piano duet, well executed. Miss Helen Crawford recited "How he gafsbped from Ghent to Aix." in her popular manner. Eva Cowan made the the birds jealous when she sang "Hie away, Oh, Satan." Prof Lee read "The Knight and the Lady," slightly adapted to our own barbed wire period, in an attractive manner. Rev P rile hard received the good will of the audience by singing a solo. Remarkably melodious voice. Miss Lena Whitson re cited "The Miser Fitly Punished" in an ex- Eressive manner, and Prof Lee sang "The Lings Champion." Powerful base voice well controlled. Several lively College songs, games and conversation followed un til ten o'clock. President Thompson spoke during the evening on behalf of the school. The College now has between seventy and eighty as bright students as can be found in any school on the Coast Great progress is shown, and the school is rapidly growing in popular favor. It ranks with any in the Northwest in the thoroughness of its in structions. An Elegant Stack ot llday tieests.

Turkey day cornea on press day with most Oregon papers. This should be stop ped. A great injustice Is done. The A t war Courier, of Portland, has the following at the head of its column : "For President in 1888, Henry George." Most papers are willing to await the action of their nominating convention. No telling, perhaps. Her Moat may get the nomination Wc could come about as near being Presi dent aa Bclva Lock wood. Will the U. S. ever get Its money back cm Alaska, mat it the question.

Ul course It is a lie : "Two sports men out hunting are a.leged to have killed two ducks and knocked over a rabbit. Sup posing the rabbit dead they put him in the sack with the ducks. While plodding home the rabbit suddenly left his prison and scampered into the brash. The hunters ex amined the sack and found that the rabbit had devoured the ducks." Our ex's are hereby authorised to steal all the items they please from the Dkmo caat. We have stood it for years, recipro cating as often as possible. Corvallis furnishes another proof that the "world do move." The city dads publish the ordinances by posting them on telegraph poles, instead of patronizing their local pa pers. In olden times there were no tele graph poles. Portland Nvj$ , Ditto. Dallas Jtemixer. Albany goes one better. They don't publish them here at all. This week Joe Watt and Mr Coulter, in behalf of the grange of Amity, induced farmers of McCoy to place 20,000 bushels of wheat in a pool, and the farmers of Ferrydale a similar amount In the same pool, making 40,000 bushels from these two points. The price paid was very close to if not exactly 6c cents per bushel. This is a good price, and the farmers in the northern part of the county feel good over their sale. E. The above price is paid in Albany, nearly twice as far from Portland, without any pooling at all. A big mass meeting was held at Corval lis last week to raise the remainder of the $25000 required to keep the Agricultural Cxjllege there. Ex-President Arthur was buried last Monday with unimposing ceremonies. A new Republican daily is talked of in San Francisco to run the Chronicle out of existence. It. will fail to do .so . An Eastern Uregon paper showed up a subscriber (?) because he didn't pay his sub, and then it turned out that the man never ordered the paper. That It was a forced subscription. We have been told of a on per over fifty miles from Albany whose big circulation, ft is claimed, Is made up mostly from such forced subscriptions. According to the story the editor takes the assessment roll, and makes every responsible man a subscriber, and then bulldozes the pay out of them. If true this is a mean way of do ing business. It is now charged against Hcnrv George, that once on a time he was a real live black flag pirate and roved the seas. The Koseourg mew is publishing a poem containing 560 stanzas. An Illinois man refused to accept a nom ination for Congressman until he had con f erred with his wife. His action caused general astonishment. A Prinevllle peper accused an East Port land paper of stealing a "Labor 'editorial from it. Investigation proved that the article came from the San Francisco Alfa.

Although we published at the time an extract giving a full account of the parade, our readers will excuse us for publishing the following from the Glob : "It waa as If Boston for the moment waa some European city of the Middle Ages.and 10 wrucn ine orave unignts ot old had re turned in holiday costume. The standards, with their bright colored heraldic devices. and an tnc smning insignia of the great truer. una oroer, glistened mile after mile in the sunlight, and made the line aa it moved a long succession of daxaling pictures. Pol- lowing the military came the civic part of the procession, presenting a body of men of fine and substantial appearance, evidently drawn from the ranks of our intelligent and Industrious citizens. Altogether it was a grand human host, well worthy of the warm welcome which Massachusetts through her Governor and Boston through her Mavor and city officers, extends to it. The people generally manifested as deep an interest in the event as the parading brethren, lining the whole route of their march with rowa upon rowa of spectators, who cheered the various diviskma as they passed with a hearty good will that must have made their marching easier. It wa in every respect a successful celebration. The- visiting Odd Fellows will certainly carry home with them pleasant memories of their reception in the Hub." I Br part.
