Just Elkctrd. Geo. A. llsitman, a
Democrat, has been declared by the Su
preme Court to have.bceit elected County
Clerk of UmatUla'county over John II.
Young, though Young had a plurality on
the otlktal vote. Judge Strahan delivered
the following opinion, which U sound:
'The elective franchise Is'a sacred political
right which the law seeks to guard and
protect and not to destroy. All laws for
the government of elections were design
ed to ennble tlie elector to signify his w ill
by hi ballot and to give that will prope
force and efficacy. Our Institutions rest
upon the fundamental Idea of a free ballot,
and it would never be safe to say that the
means designed by law to secure the right
should be used as the most effective wcnj.
cn for hs destruction. In passing on the
questions submitted In this case the court
has not felt justified in adopting any narrow
or merely technical rule. The right Involv.
ed Is too important to be dealt with In that
spirit. The voters all used paper furnished
by the Secretary of State for that purpose
and were therefore within the letter of the
statute. They were qualified electors, and
no fraud was alleged or shown. The court
U asked to disfranchise them on the sole
ground that the paper was tinted and had
been furnished by the Secretary ol State
one year prior to this election and this was
a remnant left over. There was enough
toansarer the purpose of the second elec
tton, and we are unable to find any law
prohiblMng Its use."
Meas Spimtei. Really Isn't It mean
for one section of a big- State like Oregon
to be everlastingly picking at another sec
tlon on serious matters. Joking Is all right,
but when it comes to the condition of sea
ports it is a different thing. Oregon should
oc ouui up together, one port as well as
another. Though the Republic" and
"Queen of the Pacific" were wrecked at
the Columbia bar we den't want toswimp
the whole river. The Pionetr says : "The
managers of the Oregon Development
Company, have at last began to act as
though they understood the kind of a har
bor they have at Yaquina, and as a result
have obtained a steamer just the right size
for that dangerous port The new steam
er, which will he placed on the rout imme
diately, is the "Santa Maria," a small wood
en vessel about the slxc of tho "Alliance,"
which plys between here and Gray's har
bor. The "Santa Maria" was built at San
Francisco in 1SS4, and registers 139 tons,
iler dimensions are, length, 141 feet, beam
31 feet, depth of hold 13 feet. Hy watching
her chance she can undoubtedly enter the
harbor in safety whenever business will
justify her doing so." We will show the
Columbia river people in time a harbor at
Yaquina that will do all that is claimed for
it The recent wreck was not caused by
the bar at all. The sle of the "tfanta
Maria" has nothing to do with the harbor.
It was hired because it was the only boat
available.
a I'kut Farm Several weeks ago two
brothers named Tryon, anived in Albany
from near Kansas City, and, liking the
country, one of them 'returned for their
families and effects, arriving here Thurs
day, and in the meantime the other re
maining here a few days ago purchased
theCrowder place, consUting cf 126 acres
of Dr. Amos, paying $4700 for it, includ
ing machinery and a team. Their effects,
conaUtlng of furniture, a horse, cow, etc,
were brought to this city from Kansas
City in 9 days by freight. Ther will de
vote their tune to fruit culture, for which
the Crowder place I well adapted.
Expecting Him. Mr. C. II. Luderman,
of Albany, has leased the store now occu
pied by J. D. Fountain, and wlil put In, he
says, the largest and finest stock of boots
and shoes ever opened in the state south
of Albany. Mr. Luderman has been In the
shoe business many years, and after look
ing over the field was satisfied that an ex
clusive boot and shoe, well stocked, well
managed will pay here. He will arrive
here with his family sometime In February,
ana wi 1 oe ready lor business about the
first of March Ashland TUitgt.
Another Point While Marion coun
ty's assessment is less than Albany by a
million dollars it's total tax to be raised is
about $15,000 more, hence its rate is much
in excess of ours being about 20 mills. Of
course this will not make much difference
with men who cheat the State and coun'y
in the amount of their assessment, as
great many there do, but to those who arc
not favored it is a great injustice. There is
something decidedly rotten in Marion
county's assessment, and we only mention
it because it is a public matter and affects
everybody.
Saw the Flag. Mr. II.iyes,of Corval
lis, the gentleman who discovered gold at
C,od Hill, in Southern Oregon, was in the
city a day or two ago on his way to the
scenes of his mining experiences. While
here he discovered the signal service flair,
and not being used to such modern im
provements in Corvallis, stopped in con
sternation and cried, "Another case of
smallp x."
The General ExrF.nir.xcE The
Princville Newt says : "If you desire to
become perfectly innocent of any and all
knowledge of the workings of any railroad
company, and of the O. P. esneciallv. vo
must have a long talk with one of the d
rectors, or other officials connected wi
the road in question."
iNor so inflated a gentleman now
T er . . .
in the city has a farm in Kansas, six miles
from Kansas City. A couple years ago he
was offered $250 an acre for it, and another
farm a little nearer the city sold for $500
an acre. Now the biirsrest offer he can ?et
xor nis place s $ioo an acre. The boom
.
you see, has lost its inflation.
A Big Head Mr Striker, representing
he famous Stetson hat, has been in the
city, L. E. Blain giving him a good order
for this leading hat. We have generally
thought we had a young man here Mrith
the largest well proportioned head in the
United States; but Mr. Striker says his
house has a regular customer in a school
teacher in Iowa who wears a 9J4 hat,
while ours Is only an 8j.
Some One Cried Fire, About mid
night Thursday a cry of fire was heard on
First Street, uttered in a startlingly loud
manner. Fortunately it transpired to be
only a chimney burning out kt Mrs. East's
but it made a big blaze for a few moments

ALBANY, OllKGON, FlilDAY, DECEMBER
A Project. Capt. Wlllord Young has
presented a' report to the board of engi
neers at Portland, the principal feature of
which is the building of a north raid tide
jetty at Yaquina bay, extending froa tba
north head alng and behind the reef for a
distance of 3300 feet, leaving an entrance
width cf about 1000 feet. The project also
proposes to raise the south jetty to full high
water mark, which by his estimates will
require ao.ooo tons of stone. The width of
the entrance proposed, that of 1000 feet
fulfills two essential conditions, namely, It
corresponds talrly to interior widths near
the mouth and It gives reasonable facility
to vessel seeking entrance. It Is not, how
ever, expected that the ship channel, be
tween the jetties, will be wider than the
interior channel, which is about 500 feet.
Of the several projects presented, the board
decided that this is the most practicable,
and accordingly reported In favor of its
adoption. The estimated cost of this new
jetty is $91,500. Preparatory work has al
ready been started on this new Jetty. IN ear
ly $50,000 has already been spent on the
south jetty. Notwithstanding the sneers
from some Columbia river papers, Yaquina
Is bound to become a good harbor, and that
is the trouble with them,
llow Paid. A great many people won
dcr how Moody is paid. The 7 eh gram
says : "It is a question which few can ans
wcr, because the reverend gentleman re
fuses absolutely to talk on matters with
representatives of the press. "The Lord
leads me, He feeds me and lie clothes me,"
said he, when questioned upon the subject,
"and lie will give me all the money 1 want,
and at any time." One of the committee
said to a reporter : "We are not going to
pay him a cent. He never takes pay for
his work. He will not permit a collection
to be taken tip from his audience, llow
ever, his expenses are paid by us, and we
intend to present him with a purse when
he leaves, probably $500. But he won t
use the money for himself, ile has num
erous charitable Institutions which he con
stantly feeds, besides a boys' and girls'
school in his native .New Hampshire vll
lage."
Lebanon. We are informed that Mr
Staver, of the enterprising firm of Slaver
& Walker, hardware merchants of Port
land, has presented the Methodist church
of Lebanon with a fine t. co-pound bell....
Last week 3. O. Wallace, who lives about
three miles north of town, while chopping
wood, had the mi. fortune to cut off the
second toe of the left fool .... On iatt Tue s-
lav a partt' of men went up to Mcalcy's,
in the mountains, ostensibly to look after
the wagon road buainess. On Thursday K
ti BrittandAJ Collier, surveyors, with
their asaialants, went to the same locality.
Of course they keep their own counsel, but
it is believed some surprUIng thlnirs will
be developed In the near future. frror
Jav. 3. Mr. Jacks, traveling secretary
oftheY.M. C. was in the city last
Thursday and In company with Prof. Lee
called at the Democrat office. Mr.
acks lias been vUiting the colleges of the
state making arrangements for the appear-
of Rev. Moody In Albany on January 2
which dav will be devoted to the students
of Oregon. The opera houe has been en.
ir sped and ever bod r will be admitted.

Mr. Jacks stated that there would be dele
gates here from Willamette university,
probably seventy-five, the state university.

vallls. Philomath, Monmouth and New
berg, protably one hur ilrcd fifty in all,

citizens. Whether Rev. Moodt will be
here on the 3d or not is not settled on pos
itively, but he probably will, nor Is the pro
gram arranged yet.
Often the Reason This matter of
liking or disliking different kinds of weath
er is considerably a matter of education.
It is remarkably well Illustrated in an ex
change : "A lady and gentleman recently
met on the street and passed the time of
day. The day was warm and showery and
the lady remarked upon the pleasantness
of the weather. The gentleman who
thought quite otherwise replied, 'Oh, In
deed ! How is that ?' 'O t You know this
warm weather with rain makes the salmon
run, was the reply. 'I see it makes all the
difference how we look at this, replied the
gentleman as he passed on. i he explana
tion is simple. Ine gentleman is a pho
tographcr and is best suited with clear
weather, while the lady is a fisherman's
wife.
Bio Failure. Jacobs & Neugass. of
Corvallis, have failed, with very heavy lia
bilitics. They will make a general nstign
mcnt. but as the same has not yet been
completed neither their assets nor liabili
tics are known. They had a contract with
T.R.Meyers for fifteen miles of railroad,
and it is asserted tncy nave lost neavtiy on
it : but there are probably other causes. On
account of their general business relations
with Benton county people the failure has
had a depressing effect there.
Oseco. Mr. B. Knight, owner of the
fine trotting stallion, Oneco, has just re
turned from Oakland, Caliornia. While
there Oneco made a record of 2:20 V, the
best record ever made by a Linn county
horse. Lovers of good horses will be glad
to learn that Oneco will be kept in this
county and w ill make the scaon here next
year,
An Iowa Letter. A private letter
from Frank P. Nicholls, who at one time
resided in this city, but who now lives in
Iowa, says that the corn crop (the principal
crop of that State) was short this year, av
eraging about 28 bushels per acre and sells
for iS cents per bushel. How would an
Oregon farmer who sells the wheat raised
from one acre for from $14 to S16 like to
raise corn and sell it for $5 per acre t lie
savs they have had a very dry - and warm
fall so far.
Dedication. The Baptists of Indepen
dence will dedicate their rew church edi
fice on Sunday .February 3rd,tS89. Prom
inent brethren from abroad are expected to
be present and take part in the services.
Brethren from other churches and friends
generally are cordially Invited to attend if
possible. It is expected 10 protract tne
meeting for several days.
A Bag Bank. Mrs. Wells, of Ashland,
distrusting banks, kept her wealth in bags
of bed-ticking until a few day ago, when
an employee on her farm found a bag con
taining $34' and started south with it. He
was followed and brought back at her ex-
pense, but escaped again, though Mis Wells
secured the money and deposited it in a
National bank.
Wheat.- -There are about 100,000 bush
els of wheat in the Albany Farmers com
pany's warehouses awaiting shipment; but
instead of keeping on the up grade
wheat is going down. It has often been
wondered why sales wers so slow when 78
cents was being paid.
Children Cry for
KtUGHTON-JoiiNso:. At the home of
the bride's father, Mr. Major Johnson, near
Peoria, Oregon, Dec. 19, 188S, by Rev. II.
Gould, Mr. Lewis Knighton and Miss
Emma Johnson, both of Linn county, Ore
gon, were united in marriage. Half past
eleven o clock was th hour lor the wed
ding and when we arrived a little before
that time we found that friends had arrived
and were still coming which they continued
for some time, until the house was about
as full as It could comfortably be. If such
affairs are to be repeated many times In
that home there will have to be a special
addition put to the house to contain the
company. Things are not always on time
but at about twelve o'clock friends were all
in and all ready and the twain were made
one flesh. Soon after, dinner was an
nounced and such a dinner. It was not
much like dieting for smallpox, so I judge
the alarm did not reach there. There were
oysters, turkey, chicken, pudding, pie,
cakes and cakes and cakes. We were
urged to cat until if we had tried to com
ply fu'ly we should have been there yet
unless some a ina friend had leathered us
up and borne us gently away. Noon after
dinner Mr. Knighton with his bride took
his departure They go to Salem for a
visit among friends, expecting to return in
ti.Tii for tho Chrlsmas tree at Peoria, pftcr
which they take up their residence at
Monroe. H. G
Tuny RKoLVE-The Marlon county
grangers have just resolved in the follow
ing emphatic manner: Whereas, There
exists In Oregon a combination composed
of the millers of Oregon, through whoce
control flour has been advanced In price
not less than one dollar per barret more
than Is reasonable. Therefore, Resolved,
That the attention of the next legislature
be directed to the matter of extending the
law reculatinir tolls to exchange wheat for
flour. Resolved, That the fare on railroads
of this state should be reduced to three
cents per mile. We concur with Linn coun
ty In the adoption of resolution in regard
to agricultural colleges. Resolved, That
we are opposed to the legislature making
any appropriation to perfect the title of the
Agricultural college farm at (Corvallis.
Resolved, That the state of Oregon own
and print its own school books, and that the
law authorising the change of all kinds of
books by the several county superintend
ents be repealed.
A Scheme. The Standard Oil Co. Is a
gigantle monopoly and business enterprise
that Is continually looking out for new
territory. Its latest move is to purchase
property In Salem. Albany, Eugene, Rose
burg and Medford and build small ware
houses for the storage of oil. An agent of
the company, which by the way Is Incor
porated under the laws of Iowa, was In
Eugene the first of the week and purchased
the triangular niece of ground on the north
side of the railroad crossing at Hlh street
from Mrs. Macey for $225. The switch to
the Farmers' warehouse will be utilized for
shipping purpose. A warehouse 20x30,
sheathed with sheet Iron, wilt be built on
the premises. The building of this ware-
hounc win obviate the ncccesslty of our
merchants carrying large stocks of oil.
(imirJ. The gentleman has not yet made
arrangements in Albany ; but no doubt will
be at the chief railroad center in time.
i
Down Hill. The Pendleton E. O.
makes the following startling statement:
It Is time the people of Pendleton waked
up to a surprising and an alarming fact,
namely: This town is relatively going
downhill!" And then the paper shows
why, and again. "It seems at present as
though Pendleton proposes to have rest
and quiet and grass grown streets. All en
terprising efforts for the advancement of
the town have died a natural death." we
advise the E. O. not to get excited. It
takes lime to build cities. Every place
cannot be a Tacoma and Seattle at big
jumps; but no doubt Pendleton a.id Al
bany and Salem and Eugene sometimes
need prodding. The rest of us claim posi
tively that we are going up hill, If only
lowly.
Committees. The College Y. M. C. A.
met Friday afternoon and appointed the
following committees on the Moody meet
