Skrkxaokd. Wednesday night about to
o'clock Mr. and Mr. W. B. Shannon, who
were united In marriage in thla city yeter
day afternoon, received a call from the
groom' many friend residing for many
block around hi residence. Mot of them
were young men who wanted to show their
great appreciation for the gardener and
express their admiration for his expeditious
and enterprUing way of getting a wife-
The happy slumbers of the bride and groom
were broken at the hour mentioned by a
gentle fusilade on some tin pans, that float
ed through the crisp night air into Shan
non's residence. Then a hor c fiddle took
up the refrain and the general effect of the
tune wa set off bv cvcral well appointed
discharge of fire arms. Several pieces were
played at intervals during the remainder of
sweetly across the placid waters of the Wll
lamettc that our ctticn heard. We have
not heard whether the groom set up the
watermelon or not.
PiCTtRKSQi'B. An Oregon city paper
spreads It wings as follows about a Linn
county canyon: "The road I being buiit
up the canyon af theSantiam, which at its
uppei end is a deep gorge whose sides loom
up portentously to the workers below, to
whom it is always afternoon, except at
night, when they have retired to thdr
bunks and the so'ft tickling of millions of
lice and fleas, plus an exuberance of dirt.
Hut the dasoe from Italy a- wril a the
Chinamen from China don't mind such
slight hindrance to solid comfort and
cling to the job. The scum of Europe and
the scum of Asia meet and mingle in Ore

Dw; Eat Chinaman. The sequel to the
tale of the Vancouver Chinaman who had
his toes cut off at the depot Is very touch
ing. A hungry dog happening to come by
aw the toes lying by the side of the track,
and without waiting to inquire whether
the)' were Caucasian or Mongolian, pro
ceeded to make his dinner off them, thus
saving Ah Sin the trouble of burying them,
wtio sagely remarked : "Dog eat China

The Flavor. Quite a discussion U
going on about the flavor of Oregon fruit,
and whether H is equal to Eastern fruit
some pleople sojourning here occasionally
declaring that it is not. Wc declare that it
is equal, if not superior, and there is cer
tainly no comparison in appearance. Many
of the fruits in the East seem insignificant
and dried up when placed beside our Ore
gon apples, pears, plums, prunes, etc.
High. After readingthe followingfrom
a Prineville paper our readers should rush
for Crook county with their fruit, particu
larly pears : Willamette Valley fruits sold
in Prineville this week at the following
prices : Green apples, $1.50 per bushel ;
green pears, $200 per bushel ; dried apples,
pears and plums, 12 cents per pound.
Bad Runaway. Tuesday evening while
near McKinnon's, on their way across the
Cascades, Mr Henry McDowell and sister
and little boy were run away with,their wag
on overturned and they were thrown on the
ground. Mrs. Cary was injured in the back,
the little boy's head was bruised and Mr.
McDowell's face was badly cut up.
Born. On Friday evening, Oct. 19th,

store for a day or two, until the father
gaine control of his nerves.
The Price of Pork. The fruit of the
hog has not been so elevated In Albany for
a great many years. About the following
prices can be obtained in this city : Hams
16 cents ; sides and shoulders 14 cents.
Lard is quoted at 12 to 15 cents.

Bold Rommkry. About 12:30 o'clockl
Saturday Nhrhtwatch McCtaln whllJI
w w .
stindinirou the corner by Montelth VS
Seltenhach'a aaw three men standing In the
door way of W, C. Tweedale's store. After
a alight noise they started leisurely down
First Street. Going towards the store Mr
McCtaln found the door open. Following
the men he captured two of them near the
Revere House. The other disappeared up
an alley. These two men made no resis
tance, just let 011 like Tom Sawyer a If
they wa-rr taking an evening walk. They
were taken to the county jail and locked
up. The fellow who escaped had the
"wag," which It was ascertained consisted
of twelve raxors and nine jack knives. The
door to the store, which was not bolted at
all, the holea for the bolts not having been
made, had simply been shoved open, and
the ahow cave standing near quickly re
lieved of the article mentioned. It was a
very bold robbery ,a the nlghtwatch could
be plainly aeen by them.
Thk Pkvkrr CAstv -The jury In the
case better known as the "Peyser case,"
brought in a verdict Thuraday In (avor of
the Northwest Insurance Company. A
there were two defenses by the defendant,
to-wlt, that the claim of the plalntlff'a waa
fraudulent and that the building wa fired
by the lnurcd the verdict tell It own atory
ml leaves no place for comment. The
case I said to have been a very strongly
contested one and the closing arguments
pointed affairs. The testimony of W. B.
Scott, who had a More next door to Peyser,
and who lost all he had, i eald to have been
of a ve.'y outspoken nature and of a char
acter that .not even the Attorney could
hold within bound. Mr .cott had some
remarks he wanted to make, and he steam
ed them out at a one minute gate. The
asc ha attracted considerable attention
here.
Not Tmi h. The following from a Salem
paprr in reference to bridges along the
Santlam near the Oregon Pacific is an un
j wt attack on our Linn County Commis
sioner. The only bridge asked for there
ha been built : "Everywhere Marlon
county commUsioner rre praWed for their
wlllingnes to make requisite Improve
ments, while the Linn county court i
grumbled at for reluctance and refusals.
One man, whose ranch is nearly alt on the
Linn count y line, threaten to move over
to ours, because he want to five where
there is more disposition to dispense the
revenue Imparllallv. G real complaint arc
heard about .Stay ton because there Is no
bridge, and again, Linn county is blamed
for being the stumbling block, as it is un
derstood that Marion county stand wilting
to do her part." Bah !
On thk Rivkk. -Yesterday's Salem
Jamrmal says : It is learned that the Ore
gon Pacific people purpose running the
Hoag" and "Bentley" three times weekly
between Portland andCorvalll during the
winter, and the "Three Sister ' wl.l ply
between Corvalli and Harriaburg. Among
river men the opinion prevail generally
that the amount of wheat awaiting ship
ment down the Willamette, stored In the
warehouses of the valley, exceeds that of
any of many previous year, not excepting
he productive eason ot 1004.
Cm mil A iior tion mini- Following
are the ministerial apportionments for thi
year (apart t support Presbyterian ser
vices : Ashland, $400 ; St John (Portland)
$800 ; Independence, $550 ; Phoenix and
acksonvllle, $500 ; Eaglcport, $200 ; Cor

$700 ; Oregon City and Clackama (Beaver
Creek), $800. The Albany church is self
supporting, a fact over which the members
arc to be congratulated.
A Linn Co. Team.--Louis Kuhn, man
ager of the Northwestern Foundry, at the
penitentiary, yesterday bought of John
Long the fine team of trotting horses he
lias been driving about the city during the
pat few months. The animals are four
year olds, of fine blood, and were original-
ly from the stud of the late C. O. Barnes,
In Linn countv. The price paid was $io.
Miserable, The Democrat office ha
been made miserable lately by weekly prop
ositions from one Dr. Swavne, of Philadcl-
phi. i, who wants to advertise at about a
tenth of our regular rates, and from several
Ife size portrait houses. If we had the men
here we would hire some one to kidnap
the n and put them in some store that
doesn't advertise so that they would know
what it ft to be miser able.
The Mechanics' Fair. As from fif
teen to thirty buy tickets from Albany to
the Mechanics' fair every day the Demo
crat doesn't pretend to keep track of all
who attend. Those who have been say the
air is as it has been in the past, a creditable
exhibition : not only of the wares of Port-
and merchants ; but as well the products
of the glorious northwest, in which respect
t is far ahead of the .State fair.
Anothkr Trial. The Democrat it in
formed that Mr Peyser will begin a suit in
the Linn County Circuit Court against the
NW Insurance Co. in his own name. He
wants it tried at Albany where the wit
nesses for the defense are known. He holds
the policy and will bring the suit on that
nstrument.
Foot Race. A race was run Saturday
afternoon at the fair ground between Phil
pott andjangdon. They came to Albany
from different directions to make a race
with Cameron, but falling, arranged one
between themselves for $100 a side, 125
yards. Langdon won in 12 3-5 seconds
with ease. It was on the square.
The Biggest. Alpany has several
stores in different lines noted for the large
stock they carry. In the stove and tinware
line Mr G W Smith takes the lead, prob
ably this side of Portland. Ills stock is a
very extensive one, and big stocks always
mean better prices.
$30,000 Wanted. G. W. Hunt says his
railroad will not go to Pendleton unless
$30,000 is raised, and that city is having
quite a time over the matter. It looks
somewhat as if it will not be raised, as the
time is passing for a decision.
Tin Horns. Some one who knows says
there are eighteen or twenty tin horn
gamblers in Albany ; but of course they
do not gamble, as our laws forbid that.
Portland, Astoria and one or two other
places have recently made it quite tropical
for this particular class of leeches.
Died. At Lebanon on Wednesday, Oct.
17th, 1888, Genevieve, daughter of Mrs.

M ANOXIC KKCKPTION,
Editors Democrat :
Wednesday wa an occasion long to he
remembered by the Masons of Albany,
when the Grand Master M. W Brother
Jacob Mayer, paid the two lodges an official
visit. After the lodges were opened a com
mittee eonkialliiu nl Mm II t U.un i
w w wwwa a w we a e im i "mi a
O. M , Ilro. Ja. L. Cowan P. M. of Lcb
ancn lodge, and Bro. Geo. Humphrey P
M. of St. John lodge, waited on the Grand
Master and Introduced hlrn to the lodge,
who received him with the uual formall
tie of the craft.
After the necessary examinations of the
records of the two lodge to gether with
their financial standing had been made
the Grand Master read his address to the
brethren congratulating them upon thdr
happy and prosperous condition, and ad-
Mfionisting them to be ever faithful In the
performance of their masonic duties. The
lodge were then cloasd and the brethren
immediately repaired to the St. Charle
hotel, where they found In waiting thdr
families and Invited guet who came to
participate in a "grand banquet" prepared
and given In honor of the Grand Maste r,
who after having been introduced to all the
ladles preent, led the way to the banquet
hall and was seated at the head of the table.
The table were oon filled and a fine a
supper ever pread soon disappeared.
The addre of the Grand Master was, by
request reread for the benefit of the ladle
who cheered lustily, especially that part re
ferring to the cultivation of the eocial ele

gon is largely Indebted for the proud posi
tion she occupie with sister jurisdiction
throughout the L'nlted State k In which
he congratulated the people of Albany upon
their prosperous condition, and predicting
for them a grand fnture both for the city
and country in general.
Toast were responded to by Bro. Geo. E.
Chamberlain, (.rand Orator, Bro. J. K
Weatherford and other. Our Grand
Master extended his grateful thanks to the
masons and thdr families for the grand
ovation they had tendered him. After
which the party dispersed feeling that the
Grand Lodge had made a wise selection
for their Grand Mater, who, be Id uni
form courtesy, manly bearing and great
generosity, had endeared him to all.
D.
WitoMtftsrATKft. The Salem Stateitiv
ay welhUstated geographical fact when
we said Salem Is not on the O. P. and thet
it is not as good a point as any through
which the Atoria road could pa. the
reason being that we didn't know any bet
ter. The Salem Infant should learn the
course of f tie road In Tillamook county and
tudy the geography himself before mak
ing such impudent remark. A urvey
will show that Salem I not thirty mile
nearer Astoria than Albanv on the line of
the proposed road through Tillamook
county, passing Grand Rondc. That 1 an
egregious misstatement and we have six
map to prove It.
Not Paid. A Benton county farmer
put up $500 in a check In a game played
in Portland for fun. The gambler pre
tended to tear the check up, but did not,
and )rcented it at Corvalli for payment ;
but it had a auspiciou appearance and wa
not paid. The oid farmer appeared two
hours after It presentation and "thanked
God" when he found It had not been paid.
Rooms Entered. On going to his
room over hi restaurant Friday night
Hermann Dierk found a trunk open with
the things scattered around the room. The
appearance indicated that some one had
gose through the trunk on a search for
money. The city I full of upiciou
characters and our citizen need to be on
the alert.
U s m h 1 1 NATE. Mr. KeuUton, whoae
wife was drowned In the Sluslaw, has been
a yictimof cruel misfortunes since his ar
rival in Oregon about two years since. He
lost two children by death, and one suffer
ed for a long time with a broken hip, and
now his devoted wife I taken from him.
He is an honest, hard working man, de
serving of better treatment from inexorable
fate. Limard.

WHY, AtiAIN?
The main prop which republicans de
pend upon 'o support their tariff theory I
that protection regulate; and secures high
wages to laborer. If this proposition can
be disproved, then thdr whole scheme of
"protection for protection' aakc" falla to
the ground. That It can be dlsproved.f rlcnds
of revenue reform have no doubt. For
the correctness of the figures which we
give below we refer to "First annual re
port of the commissioner of labor." Now,
If It be tiue that a protective tariff regulates
and secures high wage why do carders in
carpet manufacturing establishment In
Massachusetts receive but an average dally
wages of 88 cents, while In New York the
average daily wages are $1.54- Of course
both states and the whole of the nation are
under the same protective tariff law. Dyer
In Massachusetts receive $108 per day,
and in Connecticut $1.75 per day. Spin
ner. female, cent in Massachusetts and
$1.07 in New York. Spooler In Pennsyl
vania 85 cents, and $1.25 in New York.
Helper in biacksmith shops receive $1.75
in Connecticut and 95 cents In Pennsyl
vania. Cutter In clothing establishments
receive In New York $1.97, and in Penn
sylvania $1 03. Firemen in Missouri re.
$2.31, and In Virginia $14)4, and in Or eat
Briuln 97 cent. Mine boe In Indiana
receive $350, and In Virginia $1.69 per
day. Beamer in cottcn manufacturing es
tablishment In Pennsylvania receive $2,
in Maryland 79 cent, in Virginia 83 cents,
and in (treat Britain 90 cents Carder re
ceive in New York $1.20, Grcst Britain 86
cent, Delaware 85 cents, aod North Caro
lina 77 cent. Cloth room hand receive in
Great Briuln $1.20, Georgia 85 cents, and
Maine 98 cents. Cutter in tobacco establ
Uhtnent in North Carolina receive 67 cents,
and in Missouri $2.33 per day. In North
Carolina packer recdve 60 cent, and In
Connecticut $3.33 per day. Finishers in
woolen establishments In New Jersey re
cdve 75 cent.. In Great Britain 87 cents,
and in MUsouri $2 per day. Wool sorter
in Ne Icrsev receive 80 cent, and in
Maryland $2.20. Now if protectkm regu
ate and secure high wage, why thi
great difference In the price of the same
kind of labor in different states all of which
are under the same protective tariff law.
The fact that the price of labor varien o
much in different state, and the further
fact that the difference in wage in man v
of the state I a great as between many of
the states and Great Britain i conclusive
proof that protection doe not affect the
price of labor. The inexorable truth is
that the great law of supply and demand
regulates the price of labor as it doe the
price of wheat when each i free from com
bines and trust. Can any one mention a
manufacturer, who i a beweficiary of pro
tcction. who ever raised the wage of his
employee aimply because he was protect
ed? Notone. Manufacturers pay just such
wage a they are compellef t j pay and no
more. Would It be in the nature of things
to find farmers paying more for harvest
hands when wheat sells for 80 cents per
buahel than when It sell for 60 cents ? Cer
tainly not, and protected inbnopolist are
not more humane, liberal or charitable
than farmer. It le bevond question that
protection ha nothing to do in regulating
wage.
The tariff robbery on window glass is
one of the most outrageous in the whole
protection conspiracy. The duty on com
mon glass, t6 by 20 inches, used in the
cheapest houses, is 80 cents on very dol
lar's worth of glass. Only a few days ago
a gentleman of this city sold a consignment
of imported common French window glass
24 by 32 inches, which had paid 120 per
cent, duty, at the same figures the same
size of domestic glass was offered. Only
think of It $2, 20 for class which but for
the tariff could be bought for one dollar
And yet the president of the Pittsburgh
plate glass works urges still higher duties
on glass.
A Protectionist organ which denies tha
duties increase prices, on being comered
with the question. "What then is the object
of the tariff ?" answers: "To reduce the
price of protected articles by promoting
their manufacture where the consumer
lives." But if the tariff does not permit the
manufacturer to charge the consumer more
than he would be able to get but for the
tariff, of course it does not protect him
And if it does protect him in this way.cqal
ly of course ittaxes the consumer "where
he lives." There is no squirming away
from this barbed fact.
And now comes the word that Hermann
will enter the field as a candidate to succeed
DolHi In the United States senate B ut
Mr. Hermann will learn in due time that he
lives too far from Portland to be called to
such an office- It is also said that "Great
Scott" the whilom free trader is a candi

I himself in good standing with his party is

tne reason tor nis eccentric summer-sauii on
the tariff question. Paradoxical as it may
appear, yet it may safely be said that the
ereat "free trader" has lived in Portland
too long to be called to that office.
The pug dog as a pet had an interesting
origin. He was first imported from China
and Japan, and came into fashion in the
reign of William III. It is stated that the
king believed his life to have been saved by
a dog of this breed awakening him to his
danger when a murderous attack was about
to be made on the prince.
Some time ago an "old junk tidal-wave
in favor of Harrison was discovered in
Massachusetts by the Boston Advertiser,
and now the Providence Journal say s to the
enterprising discoverer:
It might start an investigation to deter

wave now that the Senate bill proposes to
