Smoke. The Democrat think all thlt
fussing and yelling and bonfire building
, over the election of a candidate is a great
watte. Think of the thousands of dollar
pent In "moke" juit for a glorification,
while there are ragged knee and empty
tomache on ever corner, and poorly
paid minister and bad sidewalks and empty
treasuries, and so forth. On the other hand
If the present efficient President had been
re-elected and we had had a b!g jubilation,
we should have argued like this : it buys
cord wood of the poor man, kerosene of
the merchent, gives employment to the
laborer, keeps the lucre on the go, It didn't
cost anything any way, was all won In bets,
and if we dlda't spend it in yelling we
wouldn't give It away anyway, etc., &c.
Really, It is just human nature for' the
rooster to crow when he has whipped an
other one, and the Democrat expects So
have another opportunity four years hence.
Vaccinate. At the meeting of the
Ctty Council the Committee on Health and
Police was authorized to request the peo
ple of Albany to have their children vac
cinated, in view of the prevalence of the
disease In Portland, and Its liability to
spread. Too much precaution can not be
taken. The following advice I given :
"Vaccination is the surest and safest pre
ventive. Vaccinate early and often.' Live
carefully and do not eat largely of heating
victuals. Keep the bowels la good condi
tion. The blood should not be kept at too
high a stage. The frequent use of lemons
Is recommended ; cream tartar la also
good tonic and purifier. The use of liquor
of any kind Is not advisable, nor the ex
cessive use of tobacco, but those who care
for nice ripe fruit will experience no III re
sults. "James Brothers." A gentleman
from Millers say the real trouble with
the Cole brothers is that they recently read
the thrilling account of the lives of the
James brothers and concluded to do like
wise on a small scale, being well Imbued
with the spirit of the daring adventures of
those famous men ; that they had a list of
about twenty men, to whom they intended
to send notices to prepare for "threshings,"
some of which were sent, the plan being to
make themselves feared In the community
where they resided. Otherwise, we under
stand they were on good terms with their
neighbors. If this is not correct we shall
be very g!ad to give the proper version, if
the parties Interested, or others,wlll hand It
into our sanctum. '
Another Line Another transconti
nental line Is coming this way, steering
straight for Albany. It begins with the
Illinois Centtat, going to Sioux City, thence
to Ogden and San Francisco; also branch
ing off for Oregon with a view to connect
ing with the Oregon Pacific In view of
the many roads coming towards this city
Albany must secure the terminal facilities
of this road. It will mean eventually un
told advantages for Albany.
A Coal Mine. A Portland paper gives
an account of the discovery of the new
coal mines made on the Santiam near
Sweet Home, in June. An analysis of the
coal made in Portland, shows it to be of a
superior quality. There is no doub that
there is a good formation in the neighbor
hood of Sweet Home, perhaps equal to the
Seattle mines. Could the O. & C. be ex
tended to Sweet Home and the mines be
placed in the hands of men with capital to
develope them we might have an industry
In our midst of immense value. Perhaps
this will be done.
A Tournament Recently the pupils
of the State Normal School at Monmouth
had a regular athletic tournament, consist
ing of sprintine-, jumping, etc. The time
given for a icoyard race was n seconds ;
it probably was not less than 1 2 seconds,
for a 50 yard race, 5 seconds ; there is no
one in Oregon, if in the world, who can
run 50 yards in 5 seconds. The standing
jump was 9 feet, 3 inches ; running jump
17 feet 7 inches, running high jump, 4.
feet 8 inches.
An Important Point. If Albany se
cure terminal privileges on the Oregon
Pacific it will mean that this city will be
come one of the leading wholesale places
in the Northwest. The advantage in freight
rates which it would give to the city would
be of inestimable value to it. Our citizens
must not lose sight of the importance of
this matter.
CKeep Away, TheCouncil last Tuesday I
passed a resolution authorizing the Mar
shal to compel all children to keep away
from the depot during the small pox scare
In Portland and other places, and it Is pro
posed to enforce this resolution.
Arretted. Tuesday Deputy United
States Marshal Geo. Humphrey arrested
one Amos Harvey, on a warrant issued out
of the U. S. court, on a charge of giving
whiskey to Indians. Marshal Humphrey
took his prisoner to Portland next morn
ing.
Gold Dust, A gentleman from Sweet
Home was in the city to-day with a smal
quantity of gold dust which he washed
out beyond that place. He sold It for $5 to
P. M. French. Some day It will be sold In
Albany pounds at a time.
Mads Him Insane. John Stanton was
yesterday brought from Umalilla county
and placed in the asylum. His insanity
grows out of religions excitement. Upon
her death bed his sister had sent to him her
book of prayer and over this he pondered
until his mind became deranged. He is vio
lent and would not hesitate to attack his
friends with an axe. Journal. .
Iw The Next Legislature. There
will be nine democrat in the upper house
and nine in the lower house of the next
Legislature. Of the latter three, Hons. J
Meyer, R C Miller and J B R Morelock
are from Linn county and Hon S Moss, of
Lake, and Hon W K Price, of Jackson,are
former residents of the county. Hon's R
A Irvine, T E Cauthorn and R M Veatch
will be the only democrats in the upper
house from the Valley.
. Sand. Miss Beatrice Sjoberg, a Danish
lady of Salem, figuratively speaking, pos-
seises lots of sand. Saturday she paid an
election waeer by wheeling Isaac Scott
. through the streets of Salem several blocks.
A majority of people backout of such bets.
Though several have been made in Albany
none have been carried out
- Married, On Friday, Nov. 9, i&SS, at
the residence of the bride's parents, near
Halsey, Mr, Geo. F. Russell and Miss Kate
Smith, daugher of Jas. A. Smith. The
TlvMrx-R AT congratulates the haoov couole
on this new step in life and hopes that their
future may be full of happiness and pros
perity. Sneak Thieves. Farmers lu the vlcln
ity of Halsey and Shedd are annoyed by
sneak thieves taking sometimes a cow
and sometimes a hog. Many have lost
one or more. It is to be hoped the rascals
will be caught
Died. At Halsey, Friday, Nov. 9, 1888,
the wife of James A. Pearl, of consump-
1 !--.
Elated. President Wright of the Gold
and Silver Mining Company, of Salera.ha
received a letter from Mehama,statlug that
the mine is turning out a quality of ore
that exceeds the highest expectations, and
the quality of ore grows better the deeper
the shaft Is sunk. The haft I now down
to a depth of over 30 feet from the level of
the tunnel, which It run from the base of
the mountain. On the 8th Inst, a body of
spar was reached that melted Into almost
pure copper when placed In a blacksmith's
forge. The ore now turned out Is said to
be the richest ever found In the Santiam
district The members of the company are
highly elated at the excellent prospects of
the mine.
Conceded a Little. The engineer
who went to Yaqulna Bay have returned
to Portland ; but have not made their re
port public yet The Ortgonim manes
them say that while Yaqulna Bay will
never compare with the Columbia, or the
Sound, It Is considered as capable of being
made Into a reasonably good harbor, and
the more harbors there are along the coast
the better. While Yaqulna may be made
available for vessels drawing twelve to fif
teen feet, It seems hardly probable that It
will ever be suited for deep draught ves
sels, as the rock off the entrance Is too near
the service. However, it may bo possible
to get a fifteen foot channel at low water,
and as the tide rises about seven feet quite
large ships may In the future enter the
bay In safety.
Evidently Green. A Portland paper
says three German were sent to Albany
under the representation that they could
get logging to do at $3 a day. They came
here at considerable cost.and were taken in
tow, according to the Port'and paper.by an
agent and fleeced out of another fee, and
then obtained no work, though they were
offered a job on the O. P. Two of them
returned ; but the third was obliged to re
main as he had no money. We know noth
ing about the matter other than given by
our Ex.
He Was Drunk. On Sunday night a
man who had been drinking freely went
to bed with a friend at a hotel. About a or
3 o'clock in the morning he arose from
his bed, donned his pants and vest and
sallied forth on the streets hatless and boot,
less in search of more lightning bug
juice. In this condition, (not theory,)
Officer McClaln found him and put him
in the cooler. Monday morning when
Marshall Hayes opened 'his cell door he
stepped out Into the hall, and glancing
around, ptcked up a $io gold piece which
he had dropped on the celt floor during the
night and which rolled under the cell door
into the hall. It was a matter of great sur
prise that a man in his condition should
have money. Being considerably sobered
up he was permitted to go.
The Worst Yet. Of all the fool bet
the following made in Poitland covers up
all the rest, and It Is no wonder the asylum
is filling so rapidly : "A novel bet is re
ported from Portland, between W F Car
son, traveling passenger agent of the
Northern Pacific, and W II Mead, general
agent of the Royal route, both well known
here, Mr Carson is six feet tall and weighs
over 200. The bet was that the loser should
wear the other's clothes at his place of
business for one day. Mead is a Demo
crat and lost and he will certainly look
unique in trowsers four inches too long
and too small at the waistband by la in
ches."
A. Prediction. The Statesman says
that in 1S64, when the matter of finally to
eating the capital came up, the work o
two men decided the matter in favor of
Salem. Had either of them failed to act
the part he did, the capital would have
been elsewhere. "Elsewhere" has those
two men to thank. The Democrat hopes
to see the capital grow so as to be an honor
to Oregon; but the history of states is that
the capital is a drawback to the growth of
a place, and we predict that in less than
ten years both Albany and Eugene will
have a much larger population than the
state capital, and there is no sour grapes
In this either.
Providence School. The following is
a report of District No. 3, of Linn county,
taught by C. II. Jones, for first month of
school ending Nov. 9, 188S: Whole num
ber of days attendance, 400; number of
days absent, 8; cumber of! times tartly
none; number of pupils enrolled first week
16; second week, iS;third week, 33; fourth
week, 38; whole number enrolled, 28; daily
average attendance, ao. Those who were
not absent durinz the month, having attend
ed 20 days, were F rankle Boswick, Loffa
Arnold, Jimmie Arnold, Eddie Cyrus, Ar-
He Cyrus, Icy Carlton, Carson Chariton,
Addie Leever. Geo. Leevtr, Willie Leev-
er, Lizzie Young, Rose Young and Har-
ley
Youne. Persons who visited the
school were If. K. Arnold, C. L. Kroger
and Lucella Bilyeu.
Petition Disallowed. The petition
of George Scott for license to sell splrituos
llcfuors in quantities less than a quart in
Horeb precinct was disallowed by the
board of county commissioners yesterday,
the remonstrators to the granting of the
same being much greater than the petition
er. Ross has been running saloon for some
time and the people of Horeb are not at
all anxious for him to remain with them In
the capacity of vender of tangle-foot.
Statesman. Horeb is one of the Oregon Pa
cific precincts. If Scott had been over the
river he would have sold without - asking
for a license.
' Instituted. On last Saturday a Re
becca Degree Lodge of I. O. O. F. was in
stituted in this city with 34 charter mem
bers. The name of the new lodge Is Beu
lah. No. 3.. Regular meetings will be
held on the first and third r rlday evenings
of each month. The following are the
officers : N G. W Gillett ; V G.Mrs Kate
Montanye ; K S.Miss Anna Barnes ; Treas,
Mrs E A Parker. . 7
Died. Mrs. C. T. Ingram, another of
Linn county's pioneers,died at her home In
this city on Monday evening, Nov. I3th,
1888, of a complication of rheumatic trou
bles, at the aze of 66. Mrs. Ingram had
been an Invalid for a great many years.
She leaves a husband, several children and
many acquaintances particularly among
the old residents here, to mourn ner toss.
Populations. i 474 votes were cast in
the East Portland precincts in the recent
election, and the Vindicator figures out
from It a population of 8844- On the tame
basis Albany has a population of 5652. Let
ting the East Portland paper figure for us
a remarkable growth will be observed.
Too Much. All through the northwest
have been reports of typhoid fever, but the
Big Bend country, W. T,, teems to have
been afflicted the most In Watervllle and
its immediate vicinity alone, twenty deaths
have taken place in the last menth, and
everv dav one or two fresh victims are
added to the list It seems impossible to
prevent the spread of this epidemic, and
its origin and cause are unknown.
Potatoes. Last Saturday Wallace &
Thompson shipped two car loads of pota
toes to Sacramento, Cal., by way of the
Southern Pacific. The market price here
Is 25 cents, there over twice as much. The
freight on potatoes is cents per nun
dred pounds. '

the burning of powder and the chorus and
shouts of excited men . . . . Last Friday Rev
C. Sperry and wife returned home from a
two month visit to Iowa. They had a
very pleasant trip, but were glad to get back
to Oregon .... Messrs. Standish and Dyson
returned from the Blue river mine last
week. Owing to the rain they did not fin
ish their trail to their mines, but got with
in about a mile and a half and Intend to re
turn in December and finish it and do
some work on the claim. The Croesus
claim had just got the returns from a ton
of ore shipped to San Francisco. It milled
them between $79 and $80, mostly gold,
and the fate of the camp, that ha been so
long hanging In the balance, Is at last de
cided, and there is much rejoicing, for
now a road will be built and a mill 10 in

A Composition. Just what little girl
wrote the following composition on Boys,"
we do not know ; but It Is cute enough to
have been written by some Albany achool
girl t "Boys are men that have not got as
big as their papas, and girls are young wo
men that will be young ladle by and bye.
Man was made before woman. When God
ooked at Adam He said to Himself, 'well,
guess I can do better If I try again,' and
then He made Eve. God liked Eve so
much better than Adam,tnat there has been
more women than men ever since. Boy
are a trouble. They are wearing on every
thing but soap. If I had my way, half the
boys in the world would be little girls, and
the rest would be dolls. My papa Is so
nice that I guess he must have been a girl
wnan ne was a ooy.
Small Pox in Portland. The papers
of that city of to day ay very little about
the condition of small pox there. Never
theles there are over fifty cases of the dis
ease. Dr. Cuslck. brother of T. W. Cuslck.
who has been there, says the number ex
ceeds fifty. A drummer says It Is nearly
one hundred. A stray case In the suburbs
of Salem Is reported infull,whlle the many
and the progress of the disease at their
own doors are not mentioned. With them
It Is the business of Portland against the
welfare of the Northwest If the reports
that reach here in reference to the extent of
the disease there are true the course of the
press of that city In suppressing ar.d lying
about the disease Is reprehensible.
A Different Thing. If this isn't true
about a Portland man one of our exchanges
Is to blame. The man staid out election
night and went home towards morning full
of gin. This was the dialogue that fol
lowed : "That you ?" "Yes. dear" "What
time Is It i" -just a little after eleven, I
think." 'No such a thing," she snapped ;
"I heard It strike twelve o'clock long ago.
Now, sir, where have you been ?" "Listen
ing 10 the election returns." "Yes, of
course ; betting, too, I suppose ?" "Yes, a
little." "Oh, dear me t How can you be
have so i You, the father of a growing
family ! I'm pained beyond " But I
won five hundred dollars." broke in the
husband. "Oh, did you dear t Oh, how
deliciously jolly ! Of course you'll put It
In the bank for the children. Come here
you dear old sweet thing and let me kits
you." Curtain falls and "such Is life In
the far West."
Wheat. A wheat man tell us that the
market has been looking a little blue, with
a prospect of a alight drop In a few day.

bales of hops which had been sold pre

Lebanon, Nov. 8th, 1883.
The Republicans of Lebanon rstiflsd the
lection of Harrison and Morton last Satur
day evening, A large bonfire and the fire-
ing of anvils was the oat door demonstrations
Bat tb most attraction and gsnaioe enthu
siasm waa at the Union 1111, which
