Blildinu Akmk-iations. Several Al
bany gentlemen have been contcmnlat
ing joining the American Iluliding and
Loan Association of Minneapolis. As the
following from the Pendleton E.O, treats on
tnc subject we publish it gratia: "Some
few Pendleton members of the American
Building and Loan Association of Minne
apolis expressed themselves as somewhat
dissati.fied with stock certificate received
and with the general method of the ao
ciation. In thUconncctton the oft-quoted
remark that it is better to patronize or be
long to a home Institution, doubtlea finda
its verification. A thorough examination
and comparlon proves the superiority of
the local organization, the Oregon Build -ln
and Loan Association, over one the
interests of which arc elsewhere.
Baling Presh The laat Sciemtijie Amrr-

another to pre the balr, in such way bal

ktruction and combinations of parts."
CEXKt'BKtt J. J. Winant, of the Bay,
says the steimcr could Jiavc been saved by
the uacof its anchor, but Mr. Winant aays
the ofHcers of the rod seemed to be afraid
of a little expense and so the shin was
wrecked. Mr. W. talks in remarkably
plain language, and if what he says Is true,
there are certainly grounds for censure of
the management of the wreck.
Not Ix.naxc. Several weeks ago the
Democrat mentioned a difficulty beyond
cio between Mr. Wrightand Mrs. Piatt,Iti
which an ox was ahot. and Mr. WHf ht ar
rested and discharged. -Now comes Mr.
wrlcht m'.oUourt and has Mrs. Fiatt ex
amined on a charge of inaanity. The com

Our Experience. The orvallis Time

actly the same experience; but didn't con

makes a very good one out of it.
A Rii'plk op Excitement. It was 1:30
o'clock, when, amidst a scarcity of Items,
the sharp report of a revolver rang out on
the air, less than a block from the office of
this lndlspctuible family newspaper. And
again another shot followed with alacrity
With 576 other people a Democrat man
hastened to the corner of Ferry and Sec
ond Street where an Incrcaalng confusion
was reigning supreme, and a telegraph
pole man was crylng"shootthe other man,
don't shoot me, hit the man with the revol

cook on the Oregon Pacific after quitting
work on the road came to this city and (or
a week has been glorioualy ginned up, last
evening wallowing in the gutters. I le was
taken to the 'callboose, where he slept

Hayes took him his dinner. Allen made an

I ollwlng him he fired two shots in order
to frighten him, and the telegraph man
claimed one of them whizzed close to his
head. Allen was stopped at the corner of
Ferry and Third Streets and taken back to
the calibooae, where he will probably re
main for five days. The affair caused con
tidcrablcTxcIicmcnt for a few moments.

A Serious Joke. On the evening of
the battle among the Chinese highbinders
at Port 'and Mrs. Mol'de Harris atood at
the front gate of her home, awaiting the
arrival of her hutband to sunper. She
heard the rapid and continual firing of arms
and was anxious to know what it all might
be. A young man, a neighbor, was paa
ing and of him she inquired what was go
ing on. lie told her that "the Chineae
were havlnir a biz war and her husband
had in passing by accidently been shot."
She uttered a scream, ran into the house,
and is now In the Insane oavlum. Such
joking on a serious matter lit simply out
rajjeou.
Special Meeting. A special meeting
of the City Council was held last Thursday
to consiJer the proposed extension of the
city limits. Mr. Hackleman, Mr. Bryant
and Capt. Lanning whom It brings inside
the limits were present and favored the
movement, making suggestions In refer
ence to the same. Tabler, Hoffman and
Wrilsman were appointed a committee on
the survey of the same to be made by Mr.
waincr.
Will Get Mao. A young German
while out hunting six or eight mites back
of Hood river, was mistaken for a deer and
shot. The bullet entered the abJomcn.
The man Is reported be In a very crit
ical condition. We are going to get mad
if this kind of fooiiahncsa docs not stop.
Our Legislature should pats a law making
this common mistaking of men for animal
a criminal offense.
Fhek.iit Ahead. There Is said to be
freight ahead enough for five months work
with the present facilities of the Ore con
Pacific, a fact1 which makes the present
dlaaatcr so much the more aerious. The
"Willamette Valley," which Is always
piloted Into the bay by its own pilot, never
has had a bobble, and people generally do
not believe-there was anv excuse for the
present accident to the "Yaquina Bay."
A Good Adv.-. -Following Is the adver
tisement, which the Ssletn Board of Trade
haa been running in nearly a thousand ag
ricultural and family papers through the
East : "Come to the land of the big red
apple, pears, prunesctc, where the climate
is o mild grats remains green during all
the year. The U. S. census report shows
Oregon to be the healthiest State In the
Union. Rich lands cheap. Send stamps for
an illustrated pamphlet to Board of Trade,
Salem, Or. The citv is already receiving
a great benefit from ft. An cflort like this
U about the only one that will benefit our
city very materially.
A Law Suit. Wednesday the case of
Curran & Monteith against Hunter, was
tried before Judge Blackburn. It was one
of some interest. Several weeks ago the
plaintiffs allege that Mr. Hunter made
U-crbal arrangement with them to sell some
land belonging to him, for which they
were to receive, a commission, ihe land
was sold, as the readers of the Democrat
will remember. Mr. Hunter refused to pay
the commission and Curran & Monteith
sued him for $450. After hearing the case
a verdict was rendered in favor of the
plaintiffs for $3 So. It is understood that
the case will be appealed.
A Joke, Wm. Wright.familiarly known
as the Jersey Lily, was in the city y ester
uay and to-day. A good joke is told on
Billy, which happened at Mehama a few
evenings ago, while attending a dance. He
and another fellow's girl were taking
promenade, and the evening being very
dark, they tumoiea neadiong into a ilifcii
of mud and water. Billy couldn't swim,
but with the assistance of the young lady
he was rescued from a watery grave. Cor-
valiis Junes.
Came Here Instead. Mr. Macey, of
Lebanon, who has had the smallpox, was
hired to disinfect the house in which Mr.
G us Thompson died of the smallpox near
Sodaville recently. This he did. He .was
offered a good price to. go to the mountains
for several weeks in order to be on the
safe ; but not wanting to do this he came to
Albany Thursday, and was here duringthe
forenoon. We understand, though, that
he went south on the noon train.

Columiiia Bar Spleen The 1'ioiwtr
a paper published down nearthe bar where
the "Republic" and. "Queen of the Pa
cific" were wrecked, has the following to
say about the wreck of the "Yaquina Bay,'
which, if the editor has any eyes at all, he
must know had nothing to do with the har
bor: "The Oregon Development com

is expensive business tryln? to make a
first class seaport out of a tenth class

The following Is from the Hartford Items
In the Washington county Adwrliter, of
Fort Edward, New York, "ard is a nice
notice of some new residents of Albany :
"Mr. and Mrs. Dr. Chamberlin and their
son Allle. and daughter Winnie, of this
place, left Nor. 37th for Aibanv, Or. They
take the excursion from Eagle Bridge. The
doctor and family have hosts of friend In

town. The doctor has been a very sue-
ccssful physician in this place for many

Filthy lucre has gained Its victory, yet
we are not dcfcatcd,nclther are we dismay
ed. The great battle for reduced taxation
and revenue reform Is In reality just begun,
and will be fought to the end and to victory
if It takes the remaining year of the pres
ent century. So, comrades, you true,noble
hearted boy In the trenches, we bid you to
be of good cheer. The old ship will sure
ly land and upon the flag flying from the
foremast will be plainly discerned the words
"Revenue Reform." The democratic
party has survived all tests and has over
come every ordeal. It has emerged from
a National encounter in which success 1
denied it by so small a margin, as to make
the republican victory almost a defeat.The
old ship entered the contest brimful of In
tcr 1 r diten!crs. To-day, democracy
thoroughly united. The popular vote told
which way the wind blew, and that vote
wa a flattering compliment to democratic

ambition and private fortunes, an Immor
tal Giant, grandest in defeat. Clad in the
armor of the Constitution, and bearing the
battle-axe of truth, the democratic party
embodies the hope of all good citizens who
are not wedded to tbe false god of Pluto
cracy and Mammon or tied to the chariot
wheels of sectional strife. Upon demo
cracy' tablet are written : 1st. Equal
taxes for all men. 2nd. Home rule for all

no steal in the disguise of charity, and no
bribe in the disguise of patriotism. 6th.

So we have ample time for reflection. Let
us patiently wait and watch. Meanwhile

We confidently expect to see the republican
party break down in its attempt to govern
the country. It is still a war party. It is
not for National use or for a state of peace.
Its cohesive principle Is a system of legal

Albany, Dec. 15th, 1SS8.
The taxable nronertv in Linn county a
t i j .
returned by the assessor is one million dol
tars more than the taxable property of
Marlon county as returned by the assessor
in that county. Everv one conversant with
the two counties knows that the taxable
property of Marion county at par value
exceeds that of Linn at par value by at least
one million dollars. Here is a greyiaus
wrong and the coming legislature would do
well to expend all their aggregated wisdom
Is righting this wrong. If no relief ; is
glven.the people of Linn will feel it their
duty to Insist on their assessor making his
assessment low enough to correspond with
other counties. This is self-defence.
The taxable property of Marion county!
for the year iSSS is $1,980,821, less than
was in 18S7. No sane man would, lor a
moment, think that there has .been any
shrinkage in the values of taxable property
in Marion county. This growing evil
unequal taxation demands the most serious
attention of tbe coming legislature.
