Thn following dis patch sent from San Francisco to the Or fom'tiH yesterday explains the acts of the gypktes who run matters In Albany for several days recently: hTherc was great excitement on tho seawall this even ing when the steamer Willamette Valley arrived from Yaqutna bay with a crowd ofgyp.lcs. They camped near the sea wall and went to work to cook breakfast. There are sixteen ajultr, about evenly di vided as to sex, and twenty children, most boys. The gypsies also brought down eleven horses, ten bears, two monkeys and cluht villainous looking dags. All of the animals are most excellently trained. The chlldien, from the a year old girl to the 9 year otd boy, all box, and a number ot ex hibitions o( the manly art were given to the crowd. With the party Is Sara, queen of the gypneis. Sho was married at Al bany, Oregon, shortly before leaving for this city." A Vkmkr ablk Pair. On Washington's birthday Uncle Johnny Crabtree and his venerable spouse Hying near Sclo cele brated their 64th marriage anniversary. Mr. Crabtree is 89 years old, is sprightly and well-preserved. He is the father of eight boys and seven girls. One of the former and three of the latter are dead. lie cast his first presidential vote for James Monroe and for every democratic candi date since. Ills boys all vote the demo cratic ticket. The gli Is all married demo crats but one, and she maJe her marriage contract on condition that her husband would remain a subscriber to the Demo crat as long as he lived. This Mr. A. 11. Morris regarded as a very easy condition and promptly promised lo do so. Mr.Crab tree has been a subset Iber to the Democrat since its Initial number. Long life to the venerable pair. Watt the Mam Accised. The clos ing sensation of the State Legislature was the open accusal by Senator Dlmlck of bribery by Senator J W Watts. The ac cusation was that Watts had been promis ed and to receive $to for securing the passage of the N J McPheison relief bill. Senator Dlmlck in speaking to an Ortgon um reporter on the subject said : "Hear ing the story, I went to Mrs McPherson and questioned her regarding the matter, and she told me the whole story. As I un derstsnd it, Mrs McPherson called on Sen ator Watts and a.ked him to support the measure fur her relief. He at fir. t sought to discoursge her in her effort, but finally sld he understood parliamentary rules and agreed, in con.lderatlon of $ao, to do what he could for the b'll." Senator Looney confirmed the story. Dr Watts denied lt and a committee reported that the charges could not be sustained. Another llos. Belongs on the major ity side in the houe ot representatives and represents the county of Umatilla. He was born in the state of Missouri, In Platte county, August U, 1S39. When he was seven years of age his parents came west and located in Oregon. That was in 1846, which makes Mr Kirk one ot our early pioneers, lie Is now settled down In life at the town of Centerville, where he is en caged in farming. T J Kirk is now serv ing his first term in the house, and al though his voice Is not often heard, yet he is an earnest thinker and a strict attendant to business. Capital Jour mat. Mr Kirk is a brother of W K Kirk, of Urownsvllle, and once resided in this county. Embalmed. Dr. I. N. Woodle Thurs day received a letter from Mr. Spre nger.of Dodge City, Kan., announcing that the body of his son had been received there as well preserved as if it had been of marble. This was the young man killed by A. T, Tltompson, now in jail awaiting the action of the grand jury. Previous to its express ace Eat the body was embalmed by Fort- iniller Si Irving, this firm having received a new outfit tor the purpose, and the suc cess of this first expert jtent shows its merits completely. Get ix and Drill. Our market Is full of cabbages, cauliflower snd celery shipped here from California. Our gardeners should raise enough of lhee articles to supply the market; but the truth is they do not. and of course our merchants have to supply the demand. Won't so.ne of our gardeners get in and drill, to use a slang but appropriate expression, and raise enough of these articles to last all winter, Chair Factory.

A priv- ate letter lo Mr John Schmeer from D W Aldridge states that two men are under bonds for stealing horses and will appear before the next grand jury. They pro pose to put it down at any cost. So say old Crook county men In the valley too. Misquoted I liM. Hon. Jeff Meyers state ment in reference to his contractors bill was that the labor of Linn county had lost faS.000 by O.

The report wa then adopted. The codtmlttee te whom wa referred the report of the Secretary, reported In favor of paying the Secretary $15 for er. vice and cash paid out, and that the claim ot J. W, Watt for services are unjust In part because he was In the service ol the State Republican Committee at the time when he claim to have been In the service of the Alllance.and recommending that his claim be further Investigated by the .Exe cutive Committee. Pre.ldent Miller dated that he had had a conversation with J. W. Watts In which he (Walts) admitted that during a part cf the time that he wa In the service of the Alliance, he was also In the tervlce of the Republican State Central Committee, but that It wa at the Instance of the Executive Committee of the Alliance. A rather stormy time seemed to be approaching when (he report wa amended, by striking out all that part referring to Dr. Watts claim being unjust and about his having been In the service of Republican ; Slate Central Committee, after which the report was adopted as amended. The Committee on Resolution submit ted the following, which were adopted : Whereas, It has become necessary to at once define the pot It Ion of the Oregon Temperance Alliance on current policies ot temperance agitation and outline a future course of procedure, therefore, be It Xttolimt, That the Alliance hereby ex- f tresses Its emphatic disapprobation of all icense systems, believing such systems to be essentially and fundamentally wrong and against the best Interests of society ; and moreover, be it llolid, That we believe eveey citizen know that the saloon I an unmitigated cure, that we believe the U. S. Govern ment could a easily close L.e saloon as it can cotiect the license fee and that all li cense law are but a bid for rum vote. Jtctolvtd. That we Inaugurate a vigorous campaign against the liquor tratlic by adopting any and all means looking to ab solute prohibition. RtfuAveJ, That this Alliance believe the plan of organizing Law and Order Leagues throughout this state to be one of the most effective line of policy now commanding the attention of our people,and we do earn estly ask that the societies here represented give their undivided sympathies and co operation to this work. RetolptJ, That we earnestly invite the Grange and all humanitarian organizations to co-operate wfth u by passing suitable resolutions and then appointing delegate to our convention. JttolvtJ, That this Alliance express by a rising vote Its hearty thanks to the Wo- nan Christian l em pe ranee Union 01 Al bany (or the use of their hall lighted and warmed for these meet!ng,and would sug gest that this Alliance make a suitable compensation to the said society to cover the expense incident to this occasion.

OKLAHOMA, Now that the bill organizing the new Territory ot Oklahoma has passed the House and been referred to the Senate committee on territories, with a fair pros pect that It will be reported and passed by that body, the public Is Interested In know ing something about the proposed new territory. It I the last remaining slice of Uncle Sam's farm outside of Alaska sub ject to territorial organizatIon,unlessby the division of existing territories. The new territory, a defined by the act which ha passed the ileuse,! bounded on the west by Texss and New Mexico, on the north by Colorado and Kansas, on the east by the Cherokee, Seminole and Chickasaw reservation the line of the ninety-sixth meridian and on the south by the Creek( Seminole and Chickasaw reservations and the state of Texas. In extent the propos ed territory contains about 34,oocvooo acre or 5,ooo,eoo less than the state of Pennsyl! vanla. Not ait this land Is or will be avail able for occupation, however, by white set tlers, as the Osage, Kaw, Pawnee, Sac and Fox, Pottowattomle, Ponca, Tonkawa,Otto and Missouri, Iowa, Klckapoo, Cheyenne and Arapahoe, Wichita, Kiowa, Comanche and Apache Indians occupy .under reserva tion grants from the government,! 1,685,035 acres, or nearly one-half the entire siea. The land Immediately available for set tlement, If the bill becomes a law, will be the Cherokee Outlet, for which 17,500,000 Is to be patd by the government, and the strip known as No Man's Land, lying be tween the original Indian Territory and New Mexico. The bill provides for the purchase ot so much of the remaining 000,000 acres owned by the before mention ed tribes as they can be Induced to sell at 1 1.15 an acre. The lease under which the Cherokee Live Stock Association holds the tract known as the Cherokee Outlet will be extinguished by the passage of the la w.the Cherokee tribe accepting the $7,500,000 In full payment for Its right and title to the land.' It Isn't ar.y wonder that the "boomers' have looked with longing eyes at this un occupied territory. The soil is rich and well watered, the climate mild and equable and so far the country ha beei unyisited by the dread blizzard. Frost I rarely known, and peaches, pears, plums and grapes can be grown In the greatest profusion and of the finest quality known outside of Cali fornia. If settled, however, corn will be the leading crop.as It I in the territory oc cupled by the five civilized tribes on Its eastern border. As to the equities in the case they must b j left to the action of Congress and the result of future r.egotU'Jons with tSe In dians. Of the right of the government to occupy No Man's Land under territorial regulations there can be no doubt. The payment ot the $7,500,000 for the Cherokee Outlet would extinguish (he claim of that tribe in a lawful manner, leaving only the portions occupied by the tribes under more or less definite reservation azreements to become the subject of future negotiation That the Indian will be cheated, a they alwara have been In land negotiations, Is quite likely. .

The liquor question troubles the, Canadian government but little less than it worries officials on this side of the line, and the charge is freely made against Sir Jqhu Macdonald that he wink at the encroachments of the liquor interests very much as t'.ie Republican party does in the states.
