An A'.banv gentleman Km invented a way to prevent wife killing. It It to take the hutband at toon at he makes hit first threat and hang him at once. Thlt will save the life of the innocent wife and get rid of a very bad man. "The time to correct a btunder It before It it made.M O If any one would like to hire the Man About Town for thirty dart and nay him a kernel of grain the ffrat day, two the next, four the third, doubling It each day for the thirty day, half a million grain to be esti mated at a buthel,they can do to by calling at once. Kind of work not much of an ob ject Responsibility of party everything. O An Albany gentleman who came here from Southern California lest than two yea rt ago told hit property there for about five thousand dollars. It hat since been ttruck by a fearful boom and can now be told any day for twenty-five thousand dol lars. Our friend down First Street should faint just to make the affair tragical. O Btds at an auction are sometimes raised In a peculiar manner. At the buggy auc tion Saturday fifty-nine dollars was being offered, when a gentleman yelled "tick" at a dog. "Sixty dollars I'm offeredV'cried the auctioneer, and the bidding went on. O The Man About Town observes that there are about ten who follow in the wake of the red appareled Salvationists. It hat been repeatedly asserted that this It a free coun try, and we have always treated the S't well ; yet the M. A. T. candidly admitt this week that he believe they are a first class nuisance. Genuine religion is never carried on ones body ; but in the heart or mind. We are sorry people re being ap parently deluded In' thlt matter. We have in Albany several churches whose pastor we know to be men of irreproachable char acters ; why not go to them for religious counsel. These Salvationists are importa tions, and their appearance certainly is not Inviting to people who are judges of human nature. Do not be deceived. Mills. The Woolen Mill meeting announced for Thursday evening of last week was held at Wolverton St Irvine's office ,nd was attend ed by several ptominent citizens. Articles of incorporation were adopted and Judge L Flinn, J L Cowan, Ashby Pearce and D B aionteith named at incorporators. The committee on articles of incorporation was alto appointed to prepare subscription pa pers and open books for stock for the mill. C E Wvdrerton and E J Lanning were ap pointed a committee to correspond with outside capital in reference to purchasing stock in the mill. Chairman Cowan was directed to appoint a committee of six to twenty to secure subscript iont of stock in the enterprise. Those woo have hold of the matter are thoroughly in earnest, and If tne citizens of Albany and Linn county generally aill come to the front in this they hae In other enterprises there can be no doubt of the success of our woolen mill project. The Chairman on Monday announced the following committee to solicit subscrip tions of stock : K I Lanninjf, Chairman, W II Goltra. J W Cusick, S Young, Geo J" Simpson. Oeu C Chamberlain, UBUon teith, U G Burkhart, It -.tcrnburg, Mrauder Froraan, N P Payne, I D Miller, E L Bry an, M II Wilds, B W Cooper. Deputy Sheriff George Humphrey went to Ashland the first of the week and arrett ed V. R . vie Daniel, of Harrisburg, on com plaint of creditors, it being charged that he was leaving the State to avoid the payment of debt. Me was brought to this city Wed nesday morning, examined and discharged. having satisfied the Court fully that he was simply tfoins; to California to visit a sick relative. Mr. Mc Daniel was recently post master at Harrisburg and a few months ago made an assignment for the benefit of cred itor. Contract Let. Last Friday the contract was let at Cor allis for the grading of the Oregon Pacific, forty mile beyond the Mantiam.to Mr. Nel son Bennett, an N. P. contractor. He will begin work at once and push towards the foot hills and for Eastern Oregon. From this time on at weather permit there will be active rail toad work until Boise City it reached and the Oregon Pacific and C. & N W. become a great transcontinental line, the shortest from ocean to ocean by four hundred miles. The Berry Crop Poer. The berry crop around Albany has been uncommonly poor. Strawberries were about a third of a crop, black and red rasp berries, not any better, and blackberries arc so scarce that it will take rustling to get enough in bulk to fill half a dozen jars. This is a bad showing for fruit canneries as well as for individuals. Important. The post office department has advertised to receive bids up to July 24th for carrying 1 the mail from Albany post office to the de pot of the O & C R.R, and also from O Si C depot at Albany by Lebanon branch of O St 0 R R to Lebanon For further par tic u ar inquire of P.

HOW EKLTV WAS LYNCHED The report circulated here last week just previous to our going to press, and referred to In the Democrat In reference to Oscar Kelty's being lynched at Dallas, proved true, He was most thoroughly strung up to a tree. It happened something like thlt. About two o'clock Thursday morning thirty men, more or lest, rode Into Dallas, up to the county Jail, broke In the outside door, went up stairs, where the prisoner are kept. and after a half hour's work broke in the door approaching the cells, and appeared be fore Depew, the guard, who had been sleep ing In an adjoining cell. "We want our man," said the leader, who of all the crowd was the only one unmasked. "I suppose ou want the keys" said Depew On be ne answered in the affirmative he handed them to the spokesman, who unlocked the door to Kelty's cell. In the meantime ou hearing the noise Keltv knew what was up. and cried "they've come." He acted fran tically and demanded a knife of the guard. l pun being refused ne oroae nut tamp, which he was allowed, and with the pieces of glass desperately tried to cut his throat and then the arteries in one of his legs, only succeed ing in cutting himself severely. When found by the mob he was lying on the floor In his undercloths, with considerable blood on his body. A regular hangman's noose was made by the leader and slipped over Kelty's head, when he was dragged out of the building with his arms tied behind. The rope was thrown over the limb of an oak tree in the yard, and the body of the miser able wife murderer was soon hanging In the air. After twenty minutes, being satisfied that he was dead, they left him hanging and rode swiftly away. Depew immediately notified the 'Sheriff, a Coroner' Jury wat called, and the body given to relatives and taken to McCoy. The Sheriff in the morn ing began searching for the lynchers, whom it Is surmised live In the vicinity of McCoy. Besides Depew two or three others witness ed the affair, but remained silent . The lvnchlmr of Keltv is simnlv the re- f ar y w suit of the law a delay's and short coming! in the Saunders case, who after having a fair trial wat given another on a foolish technically that was Immaterial to the merits of the case. The people of Polk county feared a repetition, hence the lynch, inc. The Democrat has alwavt taken strong grounds against fudge Lynch, who Is a frontier Court of the most dangerous nature, J as dintAvMnUr sam onom Ia iawt euw4a t a a v -v n, v vuvuif w vsw awwa stws The mob did banely wrong and should be severely censunsd ; yet yet there M no doubt that justice has been done, and in thi citv, the truth niut be told, the news was received with satisfaction. It Is to be re p retted that our Courts of Justice do not do their duty so well that such an event as this would be impossible. Nothing should be done rashly, though. Justice I an impas- sionate executer. A PO RTL A N D ERS COMMENTS. The following from the Portia Democrat is a sample of the way outsiders look at At- bany : Albany is destined to be a great manu facturing centre and will be an important city. The possibilities In the Santiarn ditch are immense. Its water supply Is tapped al ready in many places to supply power for the various grist and other mills on the banks of the Willamette and it can furnish any amount of power for almost any num ber of factories. A large woolen mill en terprise is now being inaugurated with a capital stock of $100,000. The present Superintendent of the Brownsville Woolen Mills will probably take charge of the new enterprise. About $500000? the cardial stock Is to be taken by emerprWnr citisens of this place and air.' Kay, and his brother in the East, will probably take the balance and have a controlling interest. Mr. John Crawford owns the Santiarn ditch, and it Is likely he will take a large Interest In the mills. He is one of the wealthiest and en terprising citisens. Judge Flinn of the Na tional Bank and Mcssr. Cowan and Cusick of the Linn County Bank are expected also to put their shoulder to the wheel. In fact Albany is fortunate in having a large num ber of enterprising men, and the rising tide of prosperity in this country is stimulating them to active effort, Albanians credit the Oregon Pacific with a large degree of their prosperity inc uding the important advance in the' price of their wheat which now sells for at good price at at Portland. Albany is growing visibly. Brick stores are going up Tn many places, and even the Wizard Oil man and' fakir birds coin plenti fully. Everybody is repainting and fresh ening up his'premiscs. The Revere House, kept by Charley Pfeiffer Is as fresh and clean as a new dollar, and the city is mov ing northward. The Oregon Pacific round house is being rapidly erected, and I em ploying skilled workmen from every quar ter including Portland ; among these is Harry Gurr who is getting $6 per day as a brick mason The signs of vigorous pros perity are seen at every turn in Albany not alone in its new brick bui Idings but in the hopeful and buoyant faces of its citizens. SENATOR DOLPH, Of Oregon, was in Albany last Wednes day, on his way to Portland from Yaquina Bay. In the evening a serenade was given him at the Revere House, the Mechanics Band furnishing the music for the occasion. After a couple patriotic airs C. E. Wolverton introduced the distinguished gentleman, who came into Oregon on foot, when Senator Doiph delivered fifteen minute response, referring in encouraging words to the gov ernment work at the Bay, the hopes of an other appropriation next winter, Albany and its grand prospects as a railroad center, a well as manufacturing city, and the general welfare of our people. The Senator did not touch on politics, though he did remark that when the next appropriation bill is passed Congress will not adjourn until it either becomes a law by limitation or is vetoed, "when it will become a law anyway." The serenade was unpartizan, as was evi denced by the fact that an old time Demo- Crat took up the collection for the band School Report The following is the report of the school at Vlillers, District No. 32, for the term com mencing April 4th and ending June 23rd, 1887 : Whole No. days taught, 60 ; whole No. days attendance, ; whole No. I days absence, 242 whole No. cases tardi- ncM 30 . whole No boys enrol led, 2 1 ; whole No. girls enrolled, 16 ; total No. enrolled, I 37 average No. belonging, 32 ; average No. attending, 28.
