ago the Democrat said conalderable of
this disease prevailed In l'ortland. The
papers have covered up the fact until It has
gone to far that they are obliged to give
the facts. Three have died and seven are
in the peat house.and no doubt many have
been exposed. It will thus be seen that
l'ortland Is in a muchlworse condition than
McMlnnville was, and it Is In order for

As Old Stray. A county official has
received the following peculiar notice In
forming him of an ettray cow In a manner
tetake his breath away. As he has noth
ing to do with that branch of the workings
of the county government he has turned
it over to us, and we publish it after suppress
ing the name of the offender, a well known
gentleman residing In the "Forks : "Old

and one of his boys said he was astray,

Dien. Mrs. Duval, formerly Mies In

Kocburg, died at the boarding house of
Mr. East last Friday about 4 o'clock
She took sick about a month ago at the
residence of Mr. Spencer where she re
mained until about ten days ago when she
was removed to Mrs. Eaat's. Her sinter
and her slater's husband took care of her a
little while while she was at Mr Spencer's
but they left and went to the front on the
O. P. It was a sad matter to thus be left
among strangers to die.
Fast Tims The Valley litter J pub
lished at Ashland says a: the late city elec
tion in that town there were y votes
cat and that they were counted In leas
than two hours. Not knowing how many
candidates there were it would be difficult
to make comparisons, but we believe that
the election board of West Albany precinct
has made the best time. At the election
for President last Tuesday there were 4J3
votes cast and they were can vasaed and the
tallies footed np in 39 minutes. Every tick
et was handled once by each Judge, one
taking the ticket from the bon and unfold
ing, another "calling" and the other "string
Ing." Who can beat it
A Good Place. A hotel waiter In Cin
cinnati who stole from a guest, hid the
money in his "turn down collar. He was
suspected of the theft, and while being
conducted to the station house, the officer
noticed a greenback protruding from the
novel hiding place. A better place to put
your money is at Conn Brothers' grocery
store, wnere everyimng is above board and
splendid goods and bargains are offered In
groceries ana crockery ware.
Dose for Him Harrison's cabinet has
already been made up for him, and all he
will have to do will be to take his seat in
the big chair, and there will be plenty
willing to attend to the appointing part. In
this connection petitions for the Albany P.
O. may be looked for any time, and now
no doubt Col Van Cleve will be willing to
remain at the Bay and attend to the ardu
ous duties of collecting customs.
City Election. City election now in
just about one month. A Marshal, Treas
urer and three Councihnen will be elected.
Those Councilmen whose terms will ex
pire are W F Read. First Ward ; John
Hoffman, Second Ward ; Virgil Parker,
Third Ward. Who vould the people like
to have fill these positions next year, is
more of a question to consider than who
wants to fill them.

Another Pioneer ConkJ On Friday
at 3 p. in. Nov. 9th, 18SS, Mr. Thomas Urn-
phrey, one of Linn county's old and re
speclcd pioneers, died at hi home in this
city, need ?3 years and 6 months. Mr,
Umphrey came to Linn county In 83,
took up a clulm a few miles from this city
and has resided on Ids farm and in Albany
since then, on good terms with everybody
around him. He was a man highly e
teemed by all who knew him. Mrs Umph
rey survives her husband at the age of-79
Of nine children five have paused away,
there being now alive Mr Ab Umphrey,
Mrs Moses Parker and Mrs Bas Cooper,in
this county, and Mrs Allen Parker, of Va
qulna Bay, all of matured years. Mr Urn
phrey by industry and care accumulated 1
good property. , "
T.'ie Coin's. Bud Cole, of Miller'l Sta
tion, was tried before Justice Brink, and a
jury Friday forenoon fer asuault on John
Ralney committed on Monday. The jury
returned a .verdict of. guilty and the defen
dant was fined $10 and costs, amounting to
about $50 in all. Tneaffslr from beginning
to end was a very unpleasant butiness,and
the Democrat hopes for the good of tke
community, it will not lie repeated. , Otis
ana ucar Cole, arrested lor assault on
John Cox, were taken before Justice Hum
purer, plead guilty and were lined sio
apiece and costs, Otis and Oscar Cole
at 3 o'clock were again arrested, on com-
mint 01 Abe Miller, and will be examined

Lebanon. Mr. I lindman and wife ar
rived home from a vlit to Prlnevllle last
Friday.... The infant son of Mr and Mr
Taylor Evans died Tuesday, Nov. 6ih,of
inflammation of the bowels. The funeral
took place Wednesday at the Masonic cem
etery ....Mr Jacob Arn has bought Mr.
Jake Roland's stock of harness and sad
dles and has moved it into Mr C B Mon
tague'a building, formerly occupied by
NecblerK Roberts. ...Last Tuesday ! the
son of Mr Wm Cteavlnger got his arm
broken between the elbow and wrist. He
was playing on the box cars at the depot.
and was coming 'down off one when his
foot slipped and he fell, resulting in the
above accident. Exfrtu.
Some Ink K -.. The Democrat won't
be msn. It in't on the jubilate Itself over
the election 5 but it ha three ink kegs In
the way in its pre room, and they do say
they make better bonfires than any thing
I.e. There I nothing like taking things
philosophically In thi world, and If the
kegs are miiaedonThuredav evening there
will be no arrests. The indications from
the preparations being made are that a
large amount of smoke wlM be wanted on
that occatlon.
Postponed. Friday afternoon after
the funeral services of Mrs. Duval had been
preached, and arrangements were being
made to start fer the cemetery a despatch
was received from the deceased's husband,
with whom, we understand the had not
been living, asking that the body be kept
until he could reach here, which was done,
Mr Duval arriving on the morning train,
when he was allowed to see the face of hi
wife again, and the burial took place at 11
o'clock.
As Eating Cointer. A new feature
at the Depot hotel Is to be an eating count
er In the present gentlemans walling
room. It is to be principally for the bene
fit of Immigrants of whom a large number
are passing through the city, they only
warning oinerent articles to take to the
cars for their families.

Over. It'j a big relief to have election
over anyway, we predict the best winter
trade in the hlatory of Albany, and that
immigration to Oregon will be very active
this winter, many being anxious to flee
from the terriblr cold blast and "blasted'
cyclones of the East to our mild and com
fortable climate. .

The year now drawing to a close has
been one of unexampled peace, plenty
and prosberity within the borders of our
state. It W now proper that public ac
knowledgement should be made to the
Great Ruler of the universe for his innum
erable blessings. I do therefore designate
Thursday, the 29th day of November, as a
day of thanksgiving to Almighty God, to
be observed by me wnoie people ot tne
commonwealth, in token of their grati
tude for His great mercies.
In witness whereof 1 nave herewith set
my hand and caused the teal of the state of
Oregon to be affixed, this the 7th day of

Dlda't Figure oa It.
Ten republicans in Orleans precinct went
across the river and voted at Corvallis last
Tuesday and a gang of democrats of Corval
lis voted In Orleans precinct. Had these
voted in their own precinct the democratic
majority In the county wouid not exceed a
dozen votes. Herald.
As there were only thii teen democratic
vote cant In Orleans precinct and these
were cast by residents of the precinct it
will be seen on the face of it what a gang
voted from Corvallis in that precinct.
Take the whole thirteen from thirty-nine
and it would leave at least two dozen ma
jority. , While on the subject there were
about fifty democrats in Sclo who didn't
vote at all.

He wa lying on the damp ground near
the Democrat office with his head resting
on a sharp edged stick of wood asleep. Be
ing awakened he said lie was "full" and
wanted to sleep it off. He pleaded that the
police should not be notified, and shud
dered at the thought of the lockup. There
were still remaining evidence of good
breeding and bright intellectuality, but
row, alas, he was but the sad picture of a
wrecked human life. He pleaded that the
officer should not be Informed as he would
disturb no one. He wanted to sleep off the
effects of the flowing bewl to wltose seduc
tive influence he had yielded, he ald. Be
ing warned that if a policeman should pass
that way he wouid inevitably be taken to
the calaboose, this wreck of a former man
hood, in the most pitiful manner, asked
where he should go. He said he had no
money and the cold uncharitable world was
about to ref ue htm the 'narrow place be
tween the sidewalk and a pile of wood on
which he might forget his wretchness in
weary sleeep. He had been well educated.
He had followed telegraphing for nearly a
score of years, but the tempter came, and
In a moment of weakness he yielded and
wa ruined. 1 le wa once a bright, lovable
boy on whom a devoted mother bestowed
her best care and deepest love. But now
he is even lower than the prodigal son.
He has not honest courage enough left to
return to hi father. He is irrevoc
ably fixed in hi downward course
and will ere long fill a drunkard's
grave. Ah what a sad sight to see
the human wreck. Young man, it I a
leon for you. He was born as you were
born. HI parent doted on him just as de
votedly as yours do on you. He is but an
example of what you are almost sure to be
come if you yield to theseductire infinence
of the tempter that destroy his ylctlms by
the thousands upon thousands yearly.

It Is estimated that there are 3,000,000
men in America who get shaved three
times a week. That meant an expendi
ture of thirty cents a week, or $15.60 a year

An owl killed itself and a whole green
house full of costly foliage plants one
night by falling into the stovepipe, thus
shutting off the draft and causing the es
cape in the room of coal gas, which is fatal
to vegetation as well as to animal life.
Speaking of Alaska in a recent lecture
in Washington, ProL J. W. Chlckering
said that the great obstacle to enjoying a
summer there is the vast number of large
and bloodthirsty mosquitoes. Dogs are
killed by them, and men preserve their
live onlr bv coverlne their faces with
thick cloths and wearing gloves.
Trained fleas are exhibited from time to
time. Whether trained or untrained, they
are extremelty Interesting insects simply
from an athletic point of view. A healthy
flea will cover aoo timet i's own length at
one jump. They are plucky fighters, and
will sUnd on their hind legs and strike at
one another until they lote legs, antenux
and life. A single flta has been known to
draw a silver cannon twenty-four time its
own weiffht, and to show no fear at the
discharge of gunpowder from the cannon.
Mr. Palmer, a Pittsburg natural gas ex

over 12,000,000 pound, of which 8,000,000
pounds is carbon. Mr. Palmer is of the
oninlon that, with the withdrawal of so
much material, something will jjive way
Already, since the development of natural
gas in western Pennsylvania, thee have
been several "shakes." .
Prof. Morse, of Salem, Mass, has de
vised a simple stove for warming rooms
bv means of solar heal It consists of a
.
shallow box, having a bottom of corrugated
Iron and a glass top. This device is placed
outside the building, so that the sun can
shine directly into it ' The rayt pass
through the glass and are absorbed by the
metal, heating it to a high temperature and
warming the air of the box. , The air, which
on sunny days rise to a temperature of 900
F.. it conveved into the room which is to

A slow, old, broken-down horse will con
sume about the same amount of fKd as
the strong, fast-walking honse, but will do
not more than one-half the work. A scrub
cow'whlch gives small messes of blue milk
