People about Brownsville are con siderably alarmed and arc getting vacclnnt ed by the scores. Mrs. Thompson.the wife of the deceased Is prostrate over the loss of her son, Clyde, followed by the loss of her husband. People all over the country should be constantly vigilant so as to pre vent the spread of this fell disease. Look Like George. A great many people are wondering what Mr. Harrison looks like. The following from a Salem paper explains it so well that most Albany people will catch on Immediately : MThe facial resemblance between Prc&l Jcnt-clect Harrison and. ex-Congressman M. C. George, of Portland is said to be very marked. The only difference- Is In their height, Mr George being talJ, broad chest ed and stalwart, and Inclined to be portly, while Gen. Han-Uott I said to be heavy-set and about medium height. Both nave high foreheads and light complexions both are full featured and both have brown ish red beards and mustaches, worn in the same fashion. In the eyes the expression is almost similar. The Skqvel. A few days ago we men. tioned a hunting expedition Into the coun try by a New York drummer and two Al bany young men. Now comes the sequel. The drummer killed six birds. He took two of them to Portland with him. They were Chinese pheasant . He ahowed them promiscuously, as if l.e had done a big thing, and in theevtnlngwenttoaballand paid too much attention to another fellow's girl. The other fellow to net even being apprised of the Chinese pheasants had the drummer arrested and he was fined f$o and costs. The Albany boys, who led him a hard chase for the game, are considerably elated over the joke. They only killed American pheasants! Insane. Barney Bresslcr, alias Reed, the drunken tailor, was examined last Thursday by Drs. Wallace and Hill at the Court Iluuse, declared weak In the brain, uom compos menttn, and was taken to Salem this noon by !-puty Sheriff Smith and X O. Uurkhart. Whtie he was a hard drink er he was also completely out of his head and talked moatly about seeing devils and cutting off his legs and arms,and demanded in ail kinds of msnners to be releaaed. 1 le seemed to prefer to go without clothing and was wild generally in his conduct. Two or Turn. There were twooftbetn. One was a masculine man aod the other a female womaa. From the amnios of kiod and considerate attention tby pail to each other we should asy they were no married. They cfcaa Broadalbia street as a place of promenade. Here they promenaded op and down ep and dowa until they became the observed of all observers. Many remarks were made by tbe bystanders, lie looked like a man of worlJly . experience. She an unsophisticated rural maiden. May be it was none of oar bnsiaess but we thought she ought to open her eyes. Some Raspberries. Mr. Chester Skeels left at the Democrat office to-day a large bunch of second growth red rasp berries, as plump and luscious looking as those in season. A Baltimore, Mdn paper wnicn saw an item from the uemocrat In reference to our second growth fruit says it is a sign of an unhealthy climate. This may be true in the East, but it Is not here, It means that we have a mild and remark able climate and soil. A Good Societt. Home science read ing circles are being organized at different places. Corvaitis is to have one, this win ter. The principal object is to read and study subjects relating to the man agemcntof the home, such as cooking, ventillation, economy in labor, children, hired help, etc., etc. The object is a splen did one, and we hope to see the women of Albany organize such a society.

Phil Walker, a young man about twenty years of age, was sitting on a stool handling a loaded shot gun. Another young man was standing near him and looking another way when the loud re port of the gun at his back made him turn Instantly, when he was horrified to see his companion fall over, the blood flowing from his head. The load of shot had struck the victim fairly in the head, going upwards, shattering It in a horrible manner. A sur Kcon was sent for but the yountr man was dead in a few moments. Just now it hap pened Is not known for certain, though It Is supposed that while the stock was resting on the floor In a slanting manner the ham mer struck against something caus:ig the discharge of the gun. This is the version of the accident as given us. No doubt It may be varied some when a full report is received of It. Young Walker resided with his parents and was well spoken of. 33 jtL. 3sr is: juir, 7 ALBANY. - - - OREGON. .it '( gell e'jh.i-i;j oj Kjv Yoric, flvi Francisco and PorUaiiii.

The Ine Is almost if not ouite fourteen feet tall, lapping the top of the woodshed, and several new blossoms are basking In the salubrious sunshine of our glorious climate. Cool nights have had no effect on It, and Mack thinks it only a question of time when it will be as high as Jack's famous bean stalk. Eager EatersCows at a produce store Tramps at a warm meal.

No Dot bt or It Barney Bresaler, the nsane tailor while in the county jail drew good picture of the insane asylum at Al ameda, Cat.

Keep cool, and cream tartar In hot water drank when cool will help do it.

Able bodied resolutions are never put off till the first of the year, Al ways resolve to live honest, christian lives. AS TO UEMOVAUS. 1 A subscriber wants to know if the state ment made by the Ongonian that great numbers of federal officials In Oregon were removed by President Cleveland before the expiration of their terms Is true. The statement is false In a very great degree. The statement as to removal of postmasters all over the state before the expiration of their terms Is false in Us entirety. Many changes were made In the fourth-class postofflces, but these offices have no terms. The serve at the pleasure of the Post master General, and he alone makes the changes. As to the postmasters In this state who hold by appointment of the President not one iu this state was remov ed by Cleveland. They all served their terms out. These are the post offices : Portland, 'Albany, East Portland, Oregon City, Corvallis, Eugene, Jacksonville, As toria, Dalles, Pendleton, Baker City and Sale.n. The republican postmaster at Ore Eon Citr who was appointed by Arthur just completed his term a few days ago The republican postmaster at Salem who was appointed by Arthur In December 1884, and who on general principles ought to have been removed long since,stlll holds that office. As to the statement that numerous officials of the land offices In the state were removed we think the Oreg nian Is In error. The friends ofclyll ser vice reform wilt be more lhan pleased If Harrison shall make as good a showing. ! IKXTBUY THEM. That's the best bill of fare. tstui College Notes. The A. C.

Drummers. The drummer ffom the East as much as any olher.cla of people gives us an Idea of what Eastern people think of this country, and how absolutely Ignorant they are of us. A day or two ago one received a letter at this city informing him In a serious manner that Harrison wa elected, not as a joke, but the writer thought he had probably not heard of It. Another one says hi "boss" tofd him he would have to go well prepared, as he would have to travel mostly In wagons, whereas he had not been In one at alt. Another commercial tourist after reaching the Columbia wrote back to a friend de scribing In glowing but not exaggerated words our country, lie received an answer like this: "Your description Is very nice j but I believe it Is a dd lie." And so we might continue Instances. These show what we haveto contend with. The truth Is we are not as much In the back woods as a majority of the towns in any of the Eastern stalest we wear a many ping hats, bjy as much shaand in fact dress bet ter than In many places much larger. We read as much and get the news just as early. For genuine civilization this valley will take a reserved seat with most any country. ( A Brakbman's Fall. A brakeman on tlie freight train named Van Kankln was taken to Junction City last Friday, where his parents relde,!n an almost lifeless con dition. He had been knocked from the freight train going north. The Salem J0ral gives the following account of the accident, which happened at Jefferson MThe train was In full motion and VanRan- klu was between two cars examining the bulkheads. He swung out and started to mount the train. At just this moment the train was passing over the bridge, and as he started up the ladder he was struck by the umbers of the bridge ana knocked to the solid rock twenty-five feet below. He was picked up an almost useless torm. un leg was broken by the fait and he is other wise badly bruised. Aside from being cut up about the lace ana neaa oy coming in sudden contact with the bridge, he is ter rlbtv bruised by his awful fall. Al thou eh he is horribly bruised, almost beyond recog nition, it Is thought he may recover. As yet there are no evidence of Internal In iuries. but it is feared, as he was preclpitat ed from such an elevation to tue soua roc us below, that he may be seriously Injured." Frustrated Faces. That of a grocern who has driven a cow away from his turnip box for the tenth time in an hour. That of the merchant who has spent an hour pick ing out a piece of calico for a particular customer. That of the Albany youth af ter sampling the old gentleman s toe, That of the tramp when told Mno, sir.' That of the street bummer on being refus ed a drink because he hasn't a cent. That of the careless gentleman on being refused credit for groceries. That of the gentleman who has bet on election on receiving un favorable dispatches. ' Like a Dime Novel. Deputy U. S Marshal Humphrey returned from Port land last Thursday .where he had been with Michael Moran, arrested for selling liquor to an Indian. Here Is the dime novel de scription of htm given by a Portland pa per : He Is a sailor by profession and had not been long ashore in this wild and wooly Western land when his too susceptible heart was smitten with the charms of dusky aboriginal maiden, Mary by name, and to elevate htmseit in her good graces procured a quantity 01 40 rod whisky tor her. He was duly held. How often do we bear our friends say "Ob X am feeling pretty well but have a pain In the back that I suppose will soon pass away." Bat doe it pans awayT No. not often, nnlexa assisted by some good remedy, ram in Ibe back is frequently followed by weakness, flushing of the body, mucous and milky discharges, eruptions on tbe face and nook, dizziness, loss of appetite, general debility and Brla-bvad ! of the kidneYa. If yon have any of tbenfl symptoms do not delay bntsave time, money and bealtn by using Oreson Kidney Tea. It Is a safe and It Is quietly whispered about that there Is a scheme being concocted to get the legltlature to buy the canal and locks at Oregon City. It Is said there will be a greater paid lobby at Salem this winter than has ever been known In the history of the State. Is it necessary to caution members against the folly of investing hundreds of thousands of dollars of the peoples, money In this scheme? Don't buy them.

These reforms would meet the hearty approval of the people.but our cotcmporary is slightly in error about Its being necessary that they should originate with Congress. On the application of the legislatures of two-thirds of the states Congress would have to call a convention to propose amend me.its to the constitution.
