Recently we ad vised the newspapers of a city io pull to gether and aald off hand that II Albany grew, Salem, Asteris, Coryaltls, McMlnn yllle and Eugene would alio grow. The fact that we did net mention Independence, Oregon City.l Uilsboro,Roseburg, Ashland, Brownayille.Lebsnen.lIarrisburg.Sclo and many other was not aa inference that they would not grow, ( court. The following, from the Brownsville Time 1 verv narrow and howi a petty plte that should not appear In newspapers. There I net a neighboring city In rego.t the Democrat desires to ace prosper mere than it doe Brownsville : "The above l very good advice.desr Bro ,tut you ahould have Included Brownsville in the list el citlc that are to grew, as your intentions were to do. You have not been very par ticular about cennectlng Brownsville te yeur Ibt of prosperous cities In tbe past, but her future record will arouse yeu." Two Staiciit Meals. A boy about fifteen years of age solicited an Albany man for something to cat,ae he was almost starved. Hadn't had anything to catior a long time, fully a day. The man took him to a restaurant and watched the hun gry boy demolish a big meal. A half hour afterwards he was telling anotlier man about the hungry boy. "Why," said the man, I just took a boy of that age Into a restaurant." Their descriptions coinciding they went to the other restaurant, and sure enough there was the same boy eating like a starved wolf. Two big meals in half an hour. The men were naturally mad, and when the voungsier came out gave him a lecture. - But, he didn't care. lie was a boy tramp, and all tramps have hearts of stonc.and you might as well trust a cat to watch a pan of milk a to take the word of even a juvenile tramp. Riches vs Fame. Riches are not nec essary to fame. Louisa M Alcott wa a so poor that she had to make her own bon nets, of the cheapest material, too, when afl the world waa reading "Little Wo man." S S Cot, whose name is known all over the United States, left only $5000 when hs died. On the other hand cities like Albanv for Instance, are full ot men worth their thousand who would never be heard of but for their money. That I their king, and the question of helping humanity or doing something for the world Is lost eight of. Struck a Ledge. Messrs McCust land, Jordan, D A Smith, II W White and' other, while surveying for the ditch for the Gold Mountain and Dry Gulch Con solidated Gold and Silver Mining compa ny, ran on te a quart ledge some eight feet In width, and the rock looked so well that they afterward lo:ated the ledge. They sent some of the cropping to San Francisco and had It assayed, and received an assayers' certificate giving $12 per ton a the result of the assay. The b iy are much elated over their prospects.

New. Badly Mixed. Eastern people find it difficult to acquire a correct pronunciation of the name of this beautiful valley, the garden apot of Oregon ; but few get o wide of the mark a the reporter of the Cleveland ("Ohio) Plalndealer.who recent ly Interviewed Edward A Abbey, of New. port. He av s "Corvallis, his home, is in the Yalllmett valley.nlnety miles south of Portland, and seventy-two mile irom Yaquina, on the bay of the same name. The product of the great Yalllmett valley have been transported north to Portland, then 115 mile down the Columbia river to the coast and then 100 miles oown to n qulna bay on the way to San Francisco. 1 The Uxio!

George White aker, who live on Crown's Island, a short distance up the river, yesterday sold to Robert Ford, of this city, eight thousan bushels of potatoes at seventy-five cent bushel, making $6000, which Is a pretty . nice clean up on one crop, btati-tman Snow.--The toot hills are covered with sno-. The O P train came through four or fve inches of snow at the Summit and the California train cut its way through snow reaching to the coaches on the Sis kiyou. No wonder the atmosphere Is chilly. Leaves His Mark. The RoseburgRe visw in a long article brands as a bilk the erratic Milton B Goodklnd, formerly pub- lisherof a little paper in East Portland and another failure at 8euttle, and asks the State press to "press him along." The same fellow who did Albany recently Mare it a Business, There is a gang ef nlcknoekets and "con" men who every now and then "take a trick" at the 4 :3o p m. train for California, leaving East Pert- land. Last Wednesday while the train was backing at L street an otd man from Lebanon had hi ankle spralned.and forth with wa jostled about In the car by three thieve, who "touched" him for hi purse containing $10, On Thursday afternoon a e vear-old man wa playfully pushed about by the tame crooks and relieved of a wallet containing ever Stoo.

It I In all the paper now, thouuh, and was no dis credit to Mr Wolveiton, who faced the man and made hlin co ne to time. The number et incident ot a like nature sug gests that people traveling from Portland need te look out. The Brownsville R. It. If a road Is built from Brownsville to a connection 1th the Oregon Pacific, a I now proposed, Albany should make an effort to be the connecting poli.t. The following from the Brownsville Ti-ne, though, either show that that paper ha a (pit again, our city, or that there I really talk ot another scheme. The Time say 1 '-Since lilting the article In last week' Times about the proposed railroad rom Albany te Browr.sville.thcre has been a big Interest aroused In fa vor of Corvallls- We have talked with several of our lead ing citlien and find that many ot them are -In favor of CoryalHs,as the connecting point, ov retering to the man 01 the country we can easily see that Corvallis Is the most direct route to a ssaport, and the shipping facili'.lc are aa good.or nearly so, at Corvallis a they are at Albany. " By running te Corvallis It would kIc South ern Linn county several miles mere of railroad on which the taxes would be col. ected and paid In the county funds -ot course, when we say county funds, we mean the new coun'y that could he made as a natural eutrowth,and which would surely meet witn universal lavor in tin end ot the county. rt A BaincB Meeting. A big meeting wa held at Jefferson Saturday to dicus the question of a bridge at Jefferson. It Is atd to have been a very enthusiastic and red hot meeting, resulting In a com mittee ot thirty, fifteen from Marlon and fifteen from Linn county, being appointed o meet or Christmas day and further re solve, Saturday's naccting seem to have been a general one, judging from the fol lowing resolution passe J: Resolved, That we are opposed to any unreasonable ex penditure for the erect'oo of an armory building In Marion county ; that we oppose any appropriation for advertising; that we favor Improvements ot toads in any man ner that may be legally and justly decided upon; and further, that we have confidence In the good sense and judgment of our county court In the matter.

It Is a peculiar fact that It wa just year, within a day, from the time when a man named Tavior was arrested for a like offense, at the same place, with the same kind of a re volver. Since then there has been no oc cation to mention the place. Heavy Tax Payees.

Mr Craig was en gaged In conversation with some parties the subject being that of afflictions of this nature.

Medical assistance waa snmmoned, and not until after much hard work and the administering of stim ulants did he rrgain consciousuess and power to move. He was not subject to any thing of the kind and it was consider ed simply of a sympathetic nature. Our Christmas Trek.

Now these cities cla'.m from two to four times as many people ; but It will be well to be temperate far the census of 1890 Is almost here, when the figure will sptak lor themselves. Likes Our City Mr John C Phelps and family, ot Chicago, are In the city with a view to locating in the Northwest. Mr Phelbs is quite favorably Impressed with Albany and a he I a prominent cap. italist of wealth and influence, and is just the kind of a man we need to help build, up our already thriving city, It ts to hoped he wilt conlcude to make this his center of operation.
