Among other things he said: "It U the Intention to com plete every mile that can le till stopped by the storms of whiter. Contracts have been let up to the tunnel, for a distance of forty -hi x miles from the present end of the road, which will make the total length of the road some 150 miles. On Saturday next the contract for the 400 foot tunnel will he let. It i the Intention to endeavor to have this tunnel finished In as shu" order as possible. The reason for thlt Is that if the fall Is a late one that we may Sdld beyunu the tunnel for some distance Is season. Men to the number of be tween 600 and 700 are now at work on the several contracts, and In a short time aooo men will he at work. I have alwavs re frained from stating what road we w(ll con nect with. In the spring, at the earliest possible moment, work will be resumed and pushed in the year 18811 us fast as men and money can do the work. At the pres ent time our engineer is engaged In plat ting our property at Yaqulua and this iook aa though It might he plat eil on the market. Somk Sknhk. Mr. C. II. Lewis, of Port land on being interviewed on the wheat question talked in the follosing sensible manner : "No, sir." '! have no information to give. To tell the truth, I am not in favor of such prognostications as I nee in the OrrgoMMH and other papers, and I k;iow of great harm w hich has been done bv them. Iliousands of dollars werr lot last fall bv farmers in this section through hone's which proved vain of a rise in the market. These hopes were raised by articles of crop speculation which appeared In the pre. Linn county farmers had better look sharp this year as there is too much at stake. Work Betas. Mrs. Stewart, Mrs. Burmestcr and daughter and the Missea A lthouse returned from the Bav Fridav. af sr A Dkmch rat man learned from them that work had been begun on the south jetty, the break made during the winter being re paired first, previous to more active opera tions. During the season the north icltv will be begun. It will run directly through tbe place now devoted to bulbing, and ! hence will drive that pastime on to the north beach, where by the way there arc severa; tine place, anJ as there is no un- dertoa , it is just aasafe. The large appro priation will make It possible now to push work on both jetties. Fiftiuxo Pakiy Homk. Messrs. MaMin Payne, Nimord Payne, J. W. A It house and Prof. W. II. I,ce, arrived home Wednc- dav afternoon from the mountains, after a healthy and pleasant experience. They put in their time fishing and caught an im mense number, bringing home with them several kegs of fiuctrou put down for fu ture use. They did not attempt to hunt deer or bear, and tell some very reasonable fish stories, so that they are really entitled to a chrotno. It Pays. An advertisement In the Democrat pays because it Is read by so many people. I he large number of small ads. for lost animals, wants, etc.. have proven successful to the advertiser in near ly every case during several months. A day or two ago a gentleman ad -ertiscd for a girl to do general housework. A farmer saw it and sent one hi immediately. In the meantime several others arc hunting vain ly through other sources for help. Machine Shoi-h. -In answer to a qucs- tion asked in Portland Manager IIoat said "It is the intention to enlarge our shops al J Yaquina and the steamer which is coming from New York will bring the necessary machinery to do thia work." This reads rather strangely when it is remembered that the Company has agreed to locate the shops in Albany and It was for that pur pose the seventy-five acres was purchased from Mr. Hacklemau. We would like to know what is meant anyway. A Stretcher. 'the following from the E. O. of Pendleton we'll wager is stretched several seconds : "The jolly 'Clippers' arc great runners. In their trial drill Saturday evening they ran 600 feet, laid 300 feet of hose, and got water in thirty-aix seconds by the watch. They were compelled to 'yank' a 1700-pound cart, but this seemed a trifling impediment as they careered swiftly down the streets." They could just about run the distance in that time. Wir.i. be Fikst-Clas. Albany will have a first-class restaurant when Mr. Parker begin business in the 8trahan Block. A paper at his former home says : "Mr. Parker understands the ways and means of giving his customers the best of meals and if he don't get a big run, it will be because the people up north don't know what good eating is." Sold Out. Mr. Crossen, of Crossen & Allen, has sold his interest In the dray and express business in this city to his partner, who will run the business alone hereafter. He is a prompt, reliable gentleman and will keep up the reputation of the old firm. Mr. Crosscn on next Tuesday will go cast on the G. A- R- excursion, and on his re turn will probably go into business of some kind here. Branch Office. The Farmers' and Merchants' Insurance Company of this city will soon establish a branch office at Chicago. J. K. Klderkin, Sectetary will take charge of it. He will remove his family to that city in about three weeks. Combustion'. LastThursday an Albany gentleman was walking along when his vest blazed out in flames, and a hole as big as several silver dollars was burned. The only things in his pocket were some chlo ride of potash tablets and a small bunch of matches, only the tail ends of which were burned, the sulphur not being touched. What kind of combustion was it any way. Carelessness. At Sumner Tuesday nrght A. R. Walters and J. S. W. Banks, two camper, were preparing to retire when Walters, in attempting to take his rifle out of a wagon, discharged it.the bullet passing through his shirt bosom and strik ing Banks on the right temple, entering the brain. Banks died Wednesday morn ing. "Not Loaded." "Wednesday forenoon the 11 year old son of J. T. Phillips, the blacksmith, was playing with a pistol, "that was not loaded," and before he knew it, it was accidently discharged. The ball struck the left hand at the end of the little and third fingers lacerating the flesh consider ably. Dr. Applewhite wa6 called and dressed the wounds. Gazette. Died. Thursday afternoon, Aug, 30th, 1888, four miles from Albany, Nora, daugh ter of Thos. Froman, died at the age of 14 years of diphtheria. Thi is the second of Mr. Froman's children to die of this disease within a few week. Pitcher's Cattorla. An Incident.- A little episode occurred In the emigrant car oi the upbound over land, while the train was running between Jefferson ami Marion, Wednesday night that nearly ended the life of one small pas senger. A 11 emigrant who was traveling with hJs wife and baby, hoggishly pre-empted the lowcfr berth, at bed time, compelling the partner of his joys and sor rows to climb in the upper berth with th Iwby. The woman thoughtlessly placed the baby on the outside, and about the time he tell asleep the Infant tumbled out and it on the floor with a hang that called the attention of several passengers and a brake man to the spot. The child was knocked senseless by the fall, and when the brake- man picked It up and showed It to the woman ahc fainted. She was shortly brought to, but il was not until the train had paaaed Albanv that any aigns of ani mation appeared fu the baby. There was considerable growling amongst the pas scnger? at the husband, whose selfishness had caused the mishap - - VitUtt; Sroftun Power -Mr. S. il. Allen, of the Electric Light Co., Is Investigating a matter that Is probably one of the greatest things of the present generation. It Is a storage battery . Power Is stored in a bat tcry so that it can be used entirely separ ate from the source of the power. It has already been used to run street cas and machinery of dlferent kinds. The idea ia one to stagger one. You store your power away and use it when you wish, and are not dependent on any main force. It Is a splendid thing particularly for running electric lights, as It can' be used with greater availability in residences, atores, In fact anywhere and can be operated at high noon if desired. In the matter of small machinery It Is particularly dcairable, as It I not necessary to get up steam or wait for the evening water gate to be lifted. Mr. Allen expects to get a quantity of these wonderful batteries In time, and they wih prove A big addition to his already fine plant, and will alo bring out divers new uses for electric power in the city. West Sum:. The idea of extending the West Side road to Junction Clry Is being revivcd.The following Is from the Indepen dence paper : It wilt be good ncws.lf true, that preparationa are being made to extend the West Side railroad through to Junction City. Reports have it that this is to be the case.and they arc baaed upon the fact that the Southern Pacific railroad has several hundred ton of steel rails at Junction City, and is bringing more. When all the im migration which passe through the valley goes past our door Instead of over on the 1 EmI Side aome chance will rxUt for set tling up Polk county with settlers on mal! farms- Now don't go and draw all vour lauds fron market on the strength of thia report, but still. If you want to sell, do so, and go and buy s jiueone else's farm. Oreoon BkAi tv ton Sale The cur rent number of the New York differ .con tains an advertisement for the sale or leac of the famous mare.Oregou Beauty, which was killed by lightning on Coney laland on June ttfc lat,and;which ha since been mounted for exhibition. The proprietor, M. D. Reed, states that her value before her decease was $xvooo, but he does not aay how much he wants for her now. The mane of the Beauty Is now claimed to be ten feet in length. A'i Immense Cm asm The discovery ia announced of another natural phenomenon near the Rogue river falls. Residents in that vicinity have long been familiar with the beauties of "blue canyon, which the south fork flows for a through consider- able distance; but it has only recently been announced that that picturesque canyon merges into a far deeper gorge or rift in the mountain, through which the south fork finds its way to the main stream. There are no roads through that section, and but one trail, from which traveler seldom stray through the heavy timber and dense un- ucrgrowtn, anil this marvel of the upper country has hitherto been unnoticed. The deepest portion of the canyon U about 700 feet, sheer descent, and the chasm at the top is but about twenty feet acres. Jack sonville Timet- New Use for Melons. "It ha been practically demonstrated by Mr. E. J. Ramsdcll," aay the Grant't Pass Courier, "that a number one syrup can be made 1 from watermelon cider, she having experi tncnted in this way. From two gallon of cider made from the pulp of two or three small melon, a pint of a fine flavored syrup was made a one could desire. That from which svrup can be made will also produce sugar, after undergoing the usual process, and melons, it is authoritatively stated, will produce about tour times a much saccaharrino as that from the sugar cane. Cf Course. The latest authentic infor mation concerning the mooted question is from a well-known hat-firm of San Francis co, which write to J M Rosenberg & Co., of Salem, that the pearl hat with the black band, is positively the only genuine Harri son hat. und all others are counterfeit. They say that the San Francisco rcpubli cans, headed by Mike We Young, and In cluding the famous Lirigo and Harrison clubs, have adopted the black band.and that ought to settle it ; which it probably won't do. statesman. Detectives. Postmaster Roby and the postal inspectors at this place aay they are continually botherd by applications from would-be-detectives, who want employ ment In hunting up the lost $10,000 regis try package. All kinds of tramps, from the gilt edge street fakir to spirtualistic medi ums, call at all times of the day and night, with "dead sure" schemes to catch the thief, One young man said he could lay his hands on the money in a few days, but as he was so willing to tackle the job on a small salary and a large amount of notorie ty, his application was laid on the table.- Tele am. For Health There is more truth than fiction in the following, from the Pendle. ton E. 0.y when applied to summer trips general 1) : "It has been noticed by a sta. tistloal individual that about one-half the people who went to the mountains this season were brought home sick. He ha also noticed that a majority of the unfor tunates who have been or are now ill in 1 Pendleton from typhoid fever or other dis ease had spent a week or two in the mountains, while those who stayed at home escaped. It would be hard to explain this anomaly. A Pair. Mr. Zephin Job and Capt. Bo gardus took a two hours hunt last Satur day afternoon. Zephin killed nine bird without missing a shot The Capt killed eleven; but missed two fair shots. This is probably the best hunting team that ever shot over Oregon ground. Capt. Bogard ua spoke highly of Zeph's shooting. The hunt was conducted in a sportmanlike manner, each taking only his own ide. Leader. TAX PAYKKH.

People have been told that thi a free country so many time that they sort of get tired of it. Every once in about six months the Man About Town make it a point to make this statement and then follow it up by taking our citizens to task for patroniz ing tramp tailors, and other in different lines, when we have better one at home who spend their money here and help build up the community. It doesn't seem to do much good either ; but we propose to keep at it. When the Man About Town finds that he can't gel good enough things of home merchants, he will pack up and go where he can. n 11 A gentleman in this city well posted In wheat matter says the trouble at Corvallis (that the warehouses are forcing the mills up. The latter giving two per cent prem ium, the warehouse bids hig'h, as there is little to risk, and the mill does the buying. In Albany there U a complete harmony between the mill men and warehouses, both of whom are purposing to offer the hiifhest price the market justifies. The Democrat doesn't pretend any longer to understand the matter completely. What ever the cause it Is a Met that Corvallis just now is leading the market. Our ware housemen and mill men, are square busi ness men, and we do not see how the dif ference cart be laid at their feet. N I! The business of the draymen is a pretty good indication of the business of a city The Man About Town is reliably informed that the business in this city has probably doubled In the last year of two. The num ber of drays has aUo doubled, and all of them are generally kept running. More reasonable prices also are charged here than in most other places in Oregon. We un derstand that in Salem the charges are nearly double those in Albany. Santiam Minks. Mr. Ryan McClerant president of the Portland Mining and Mill Company, has just returned from a ten. days' sojourn at the company's property on the Santiam. He reports a satisfactory progress in the main working tunnel, it now being in fifty feet. Mr, McCleran brought some handsome specimens of a new discovery. In fact, he says, the the mountains are full of prospectors, who are making new and important discoveries every day in all directions. It may be safely said now that the Santiam district has fully entered on its second life, which, from all appearances, will have a brilliant and prosperous maturity. Oregonian. Notice. Mr Charles Metzger haa been appointed agent for J R Meyers & Co, also for Searle & Dearie, contractors on the O P R R. AU men who want work must apply to him at his office in this city. Pitcher's Castor la KXPI.A NATIONH VVA NTKIl. The free whisky organs have been In x Ited several time to explain these things, say the Cleveland Plain Dealrr, but they don't respond : Why republicans In 1873 favored putting alt and lumber on the free list. Why they have changed their minds. Why In 1884 the republicans favored re ducing tariff tases. Why they have changed their minds. Why the republicans placed hide on the free list In 1873. Why the tanning luduitry was not ruin ed thereby. Why no pauper made leather or shoes of Europe came over. Why the leather Industry prospered more than evr before. Why more workmen were employed. Why they got better wage. Why, In short, the republican tariff the ory tlitln t work. Why the price of wool has steadily de clined under a protective tariff. Why the reduction of duty on wool in 1883 was followed by an advance In price instead of a decline. Why 1 he lowest point In the price of wool was reached under the highest tariff Why sheep In Ohio have decreased in I number right along for seven years under a protective tarid. Why the sheep In Ohio decreased over 300xwin number during one year,t88i-3, when the highest wool tariff existed. Why the price of wheat haa declined right along under a protective tarid. Why the price of corn has declined under a protective tarid. Why wage have declined under a pro tective tarid. Why strikes and large bitter conflict be tween employes ami employers have been common under a protective tariff. These are only a few of the many point that the people would like to have the ad vocate of high tariff blessedness explain. It may not be a etsv as to bowl about rebels and rave over the bloody shirt and cry out that Great Britain is upon us but it would be vastly more sensible. From the pencil of Th. Nat come a very suggestive cartoon representing two "protected" American manufacturer din Ing In one of the most aristocratic hotel In London . The dining room I fitted up In the most gorgeous and costly style, and waiter dressed in costlv livery stand at all 0 sr points waiting the beck and nod of the two 'protected" gentlemen, who are on their annual trip to Europe. The cartoon is ! named "American Ii.fant Monopolist Abroad.' One of the diners says to the other : -We arc Intensely American, you know, but if our infant industries arc not protected to the fullest extent,we can't live in England, you know. Just think how degiading it would be to be obliged to go home and earn a living." Mr. Natt's car toon are all for Cleveland and tariff reform. MISS OF WP.A1.TH. Albany, Aug. 31st, 1888. Edit or Democrat : In 1850 the total value of the entire wealth of the country wa $7,000,000000. Of this value the farmers ow ned $4,000,- ooo,oon. in isoo the total wealth of the country was $10,000,000,000, of which the farmers owned $8,000,00,000. In 1880, after twenty years of protection and repub lican rule, the natianai wealth had increaa ed to $43j,ooo,ooo. Thefarmc' share was $13,000,00000, a little over one-third of the entire sum. Why this loss of wealth to the farmer ? Will some republican farm er who expects to vbte for Harrison and protection stand erect like a man and tell the plain truth about this matter ? What "wizard hand" wrought this robbery ? Can the same ratio continue twenty years more and the tiller of the soil continue to be it owners ? These are grave problems and now Is the time to consider them. If the present opportunity is lost, it will not soon return again. Justicr. IMKS IT PROTKTT ? Albany, Sept ist, 1888, f" Editor Democrat : Hoe protection protect ? That Is the burning question which the overtaxed la borers ought to have answered clearly and satisfactorily before voting to rivit the chains of vassalage upon his sturdy limbs forever. The last census report shows that the average yearly wages of the toilers in the great protected iron industry is $3-5-The same authority shows that multitudes of other tollers, whose labor is in no man ner protected,earn upon an average a much larger annual sum. The average annual earnings of blacksmiths is $623.35 J brake men, $508.60 ; bricklayerR,$637.6o ; bridge builder's, $737.40 ; butchers, $514.70 ; car penters, $552.44 ; coopers, $532.18, and so on. Now let it be shown in what way a tax on the consumers of iron in any of its forms for the benefit of the manufacturer in any manner aids the laborer. On the contrary, do not these figures thow that he receives less by reason of this vaunted pro tection than he would if he were not weighed down by fraudulent pretences about wages and protection ? Else, how is it that multitudes who are not "protected," outstrip him as wage earners ? 8. Trusts and tariff protection go together.
