In the Lebanon Express of the 17th in stant, I nee that the prohibitionists liave used my name as one of the Central Com mittee. Please correct, as I never author ted the use of my name, as I am a candi date on the Democratic ticket for Treasurer of Linn county. Although I am a temper ance man I have always been a democrat have never asked anv favors of the party until now. Now I offer my name for Coun ty Treasurer subject to the action of the Democratic Countv Convention ; as I am ruptured and not able to work. Anv favor anyone will render me will be thankfully received. Jons Burnett. MAN ABOUT TOWN. Notices posted in different parts of the city ordering property owners to clean their alleys, within sixty days should be respect ed. Our citizens should go further, and clean their front and hack yards, clean everything ; it Is a good time. . .a The number of busmos house-, m A. barn Is a third more almost than a year ago Gradually thev are spreading eastward. Why not southward. O The Man About Town is willing to wager that there are at least two cows in Albany that will unlock anv safe with combination lock, in the Valley. Aeother Fia Hon. Nothing pleases the Democrat more than every addition to the blooded stock of Linn county. It means much for the fu ture. Blood will tell everv time. Last week Bruce McKnight and Fred Blumberg of this city .purchased of Jay Beach his trot' line stallion Altaeo. as tine a horse as wa ever imported to this countv. With Alta mont as his sire, and Maggie Arnold, with a record of 2 .-35, as his dam, he has a pedigree equal to any Oregon horse. Altago was entered in the State fair races last year and made a three year record of 2 43 , one second slower than the record for the Northwest, and without sufficient training. He was afterwards trotted in several special races, winning, we believe, all of them. He will stand during the coming season in Linn county, for particulars of which watch the columns of the Democrat next week. Street Hallway. At a special meeting of the Council held on Friday evening last, the Street Rail way ordinance, after amendment, was unani mously passed. The company has opened its books and stock is being taken. If there are any who think this project is simply on paper they will soon find themselves mis taken. Business is meant. Running along First Street from end to end, a distance of fifteen blocks, and from First 8treet to the depot, nearly ten blocks, It will prove a con venience of sufficient magnitude to command considerable business. Besides it will be the means of doing a way with hotel busses, the hotels presenting their guests with tickets, which will be quite an item towards its suc cess. As a permanent institution for the city with the best prospects in the Valley, it is one our citizens should support with their encouragement and pocket book. An Eventful Expedition. Two Harry's and a Fred helped them selves to a boat belonging to Wm. Shields one day last week, and, with a big army re volver in their possession, sailed down the raging waters of the Willamette until they reached Independence, which they did in safety after several hair breadths escapes from Indians, boa constrictors and grizzly bears along the way. They commanded the citizens to surrender without restrictions and were about to storm the fort, when a posse of men armed to the teeth, after a des" perate and bloody struggle, succeeded in arresting them, the immediate charge being 1 arceny of a boat, a dispatch having been sent from this city to capture the runaway boys. Being somewhat subdued, a further tumult was caused in the boys camp by the pretended arrest of one of them tor carrying concealed weapons. They were sent home on a big river steamer, and have since been restored to citizenship. A Dead Dog. Yesterdsy morning about 8 o'clock a cnl- tis dog that hod been causing congregations of dogs generally along First street was. with sevsrsl other dogs, obstructing the wsy at the corner of First and Ferry Streets, when Marshal Hays appeared on the scene ami ordeied ths cultis dog to move on. Not complying be was shot as dead as a spike, and carried off. This act meets with general favor by our citizens, and deserves to be followed by the slaughter of several other non-taxed dogs that have been proving them sslvso terrors to the goods of merchants dis played on tho street. Fire at HarrbibarK. About 9 o'clock last Tuesday morning a Are was discovered in an old building at Har risbarg formerly occupied so a restaurant. Bapidly spreading three other old buildings, one May Sc Bonders wsrehouse, were consum ed. Thsy were owned by Mr Msy, W Church ill and Perry Hyde. The damage was nom inal. There was a close csll tor ths adjoining buildings. The drag stock ef Mr J P School ing was damaged some, ss well as the build ing and contents of Geo Butler's saloon. The bucket brigade are ssid to have done splendid work. A big fire iu th Dily Union. o!Ii m, in Springfield, Mm , list Wednesday resulted n about fifteen people, mostly attaches of tho office, being burned to death. It wan a horrible affair. Empsror William, ef Uonn my, is reported to be dying. Over 90 years of sge bis career has been a remarkable one. COUNTY TRACKERS INSTITUTE.

Suit In equity . Mind Culture. Some time ago a class was formed in Coryallis for the study of the Loisette sys tem of mind culture. The results were so satisfactory that another class oi ten has been organized. A friend who has joined the second class, in writing from Corvallis In reference to the work of the first class, which, by the way is a secret, says : "if it will do a tenth for me what they claim far it I will be more than satisfied." The ob ject of the system is to improve the mem ory, and the results are said to be remark able. Those who would like to be mem bers of a class of ten, for that number is necessary in order to obtain reduced an d reasonable rates, will please confer with the local editor of the Democrat. location i will make no difference.
