big head lines about tlx insane asylum
should disappear. At their suggestion the
grand jury Investigated the asylum, and
they found that the Inmates appeared to
be as comfortable and happy as that unfor
tunate class of humanity could be expected
to be found, and also said that for a grand
jury to report it clean and neat would fall
far short of giving the expression of this
grand jury. They also simply recom
mended that the food of the employes and
Inmates be as nearly alike.in quality ,a pas.
sible. So there was a lot of talk for noth
ing. How High. A dispute has arisen as to
whether the water in Oregon City was
higher than during the flood of 1861. The
following from the Enterprise stems to
settle the question : "It is pretty gener
ally conceded that the flood of 1 890. ex
ceeds that of 1861 by about two feet in the
city .and below by even more than that.
The waters continued to rise rapfdlr be
tween seven and ten o'clock. At the Phoe
nix building at that hour the waters touched
the mark of 1861. The rie in the lower
part of town was even greater and It is
maintained that the flood exceeded that of
1S61 by several feet-"
It Grows. It is astonishing how news
will grow and enlarge as it goes away
from home. Apropos of this enbject, we
have bro shown a letter received by J M
Archibald living near this city from a
relative living in Ohio saying that tele
graphic news received there slates that all
the Willamette Valley and most all of
Washington was covered with a flood of
water and making inquiries about losses of
life and property. When we consider that
all the losses In the Willamette Valley dur
Ingthe late flood would not equal the one
hundredth part of the loss In Cincinnati in
the flood five years ago, ours at once sinks
into insignificance.

Wheeler wilting from Sisters, Crook coun
Feb. 3rd, gives the following Interesting
particulars about the winter there : '-It
has been raining for 3 days just as hard as
it can. The snow is about all gone. This
a the first hard ground we have seen for
74 d-ys, during that time there has been
about 5 feet of snow fallen ; but It has
neer been more than to Inches deep at
any one time. I haye not lest any horses
that I know of. The weather for the lait
ten day has been warm. On the 33rd of
January it rained all day and snowed 4
inches at nlht ; rained the 36th tor 34
hours, then froie and snowed 6 inches ;
rained on the jSih, snowed the 3th J
Inches ; rained on the 31st and has rained
ever since, so you see there Is lots of chuck.

The firs', regular passenger train from
Portland to Corvat'is since a week ago
last Saturday, came over the West Side
road yesterday on time and will here
after run regutaily. Notwithstanding
he fact that this road does not receive
nearly as much attention as does the East
side, it has proven Itself to be the proper
out for the main line from Portland.
Oh, yes. Two or three days ahead on
several week's blockade, that proves a
good deal. The line Is several miles
longer, much slower to travel, and has
se.eral other little items against it's be
coming the main' line. There is no dan
ger of the main line leaving the Stale
Capital and the principal railroad center.

A Well Story. We recently told a
pump story i the Democrat. The
following from the OcVoco Review, we
admit surpasses it:
"Mark Twain, in his "Big Bonanza,"
tells of the bottom falling out of a well in
Virginia City, but an incident occurred on
Willow creek last week that lays Mark's
story In the shade. S S Brown had a
well ntar the creek, and when the flood
came the entire well, pump and all, was
washed away. Mr Brown fcund hu
pump several hundred yards down the
stream bi t his well was nowhere to be
found.

given by Bill Nye will strike several Al

your hair invigorator money and buy a

its home paper and advertise and goes
ahead, and vo will be well fixed, and a

whe-e oh where I our board of trade
gone." in answer to this would say there
is no board of trade In Albany and there
has not been for eighteen months. Dur
ing the summer cf iSSS, the business men
f Albany said they did not want a board
of irade, consequently It quietly ceased lo
exist. During the life of the board of
trade it took nine members to constitute a
quorum, rhe president would call a
mrellng.the tlty papers would urge mem
bers to attend, the otlicers Iwould vo out nn
the streets and beg members to go. the
hall would be lighted and read v. the
meeting would consist of the president and
secretary, a represcnutive of each eft),
city papers, and generally one other man.
sometimes there would be six or seven
present, but not quorum. If the city I
ready for a board of trade, if the business
men will attend and keen one un. then I
think II the duty of "elllxen' and "several
Business men of this city" to organUe
board of trade and go to work to advertise
he advantages of Albany.
ANOTHER ClTUEM.
Wext Hlmtino. Tuesday nooagtwo
ell known Albany men, named K E
Allen and C E Hawkins left Albany In it
skiff on a hunting expedition down tho
river, and their experience has probably
never been equalled by Albany nlmrods.
Un getting ready lo return, when severa
miles down the river, they found the cur
rent tr swlfi, and out Into a small take on
this side, just where thev didn't know. In
making an effort o get out they- had a
wading experience up lo the arms, and
finally giving up getting out, evening
coming on, they camped out In their wet
and cheerless condition, and it was not
until 10 o'clock 0.1 Wednesday that they
reached home.not having anything to eat
for nearly twenty four hours. It Is not
safe to ask them any questions.
This country has Its drawbacks, but
they are nothing to compare with what
Western Oregon had to contend with
last week. The floods there were most
disastrous. The damage to the S V rail
road are of such a nature that it will take
several months lo put the road In running
condition.
Elsewhere we give some Items from
the piinevl'.Ie papers, which somewhat
contradict the above. Instead of taking
several months to get the road In running
condition, cars are now running through
Western Oregon.

No lown In the WIUtieU valley Is
shewing g renter lUti and progress than Al
bany. During the past year the popula
tion has increased twenly-flvo per cent,
and the value of real estate has made an
advance three times as great. The causes
which trdlo this are stlil at work and the
city 'is making great progress, This
growth It of the most henithy nature as it
comes from within and Is the work of her
0vn cttlxena. Situated at the point where
tho main Oregon line of the Southern Pa
cific Is crossed by that of the Oregon Pa.
clflo on its way from Yaqulna bay to an
eastern connection at Boise City, Albany
has great advantages as a railroad center.
There, a'so, lines of steamers on the
Willamette make connection with the 1st
ter road, The project of a road from AU
bony to tho mouth of the Columbia, at
Astoria, Is being pushed with great vigor
by the citizens, and In many other respects
the city is exhibiting that internal life and
enterprise which He, at the bottom 1 1 ill
progress. Tributary to Albar.y are the
Santlam gold and stiver mines, new being
developed and proved to be extensive and
valuable, also large coal measures that are
undergoing development. The agricul
tural, stock and timber resources of the
surrounding country are very grest.so that
in all the elements of prosperity the city
is exceedingly rich.
une ot the improvements of the past
year was the Masonic Temple.a handsome
structure which will be dedicated cn the
twenty-first oi the mouth with appropriate
ceremonies by the olllcers ot the grand

every part of the state. The most Impor

A eubsrrKcr sends the following from
the Pacific Express, for publication. It
U a good writeupof a thriving neighbor.
The town has a population of about five
hundred, and for general neatness, sobri
ety, order and thrift, has no superior In
Oregon. The streets are regularly laid
out and kept clear of rubbish and very
few unpalnled houses are to be seen. An
other notable feature is that the shops are
unusually large and roomy for the sUe ot
the place and suggests the laudable am.
billon of the first builders to have their
town developed It.to a city.
The moral tone of llalicy is also ex
cep'lonally good, as Indeed might bo In
ferred from ihe very appearance of its
streets and buildings, and the most praise
worthy thing that can be said of the town1,
Is that it will not tolerate a sloon, and
has not had any such den ot Iniquity "to
make business lively for several years.
Nor Is this high regard for decency, or
der and morality Inconsistent with busi
ness activity as is often cialmel, tor there
Is no other town of equal sixe In which a
greater amount ot business Is transacted
Tnere are four large ware houses In Ihe
place and il Is claimed and estimated from
reasonable good data that there Is mure
hay and grain stortd here direct from the
farm than any other town In the Willam
ette valley, and more apples are shipped
from this point than from any other be

une 01 the principle general enterprises
In which the people of Ual.cy are inter
esting themselves is Ihe extension of a
branch line of railroad from this point up
the Callpoula river. If this line is built
llalsey will soon rank with Albany and
Eugene as a trading point.
There are three large and handsome
church buildings and from what we
know of the people they are good ma
terial indices of Ihe moral power wielded
by the large congregations that fill iheir
pews.
The school advantages of ItaUey are al
so of superior character. A $5000 school

schoo rooms has Just been completed.
This building Is highly creditable to He! .

'A TRAGEDY.'
Uecrge gdiewraft Slisuts llletcMef and Vsfe
Last December Georgn SaUmarsh, of
this city, and Miss Lola Klley, of Eugene,
were united In marriage nt the latter city.
About three weeks ago at the depot Mr,
Saltmsrslt informed a Democrat man
that his wife had left him and gave bin. the
particulars o! their trouble, which were,
boiled down, that she did not love htm ;
but laved some one else,and believing that
they could not be happy together she had
concluded to icturn to Iter Iwme, which she
did on the outgoing train. This was forty
two days after their marriage. She was
to have a week lo decide whether she
would return a id live with htm, which he
did not believe she woula ever do He
said it was more than ha could stand, and
he would go off until the end of the week,
as he wat all broken up. Otherwise they,
had been happy together. Last Thursday
he went to Eugene to see her,ilmoet mad.
dened by hs trouble. lie found her
Jhere; also the young man who was said
to be at the bottom of the trouble, who
had only recently been married himself.
Mr.' Saltinarsh Induced his wife to return
to Albany and they came here together
on Saturday. Uiving up all hopes of
reconciliation he made up his mind to end
both of their lives, buying a Smith k
Wesson revolver, JH calibre, on Monday
for that purpose,
Monday evening just b fore 9 o'clock he
started for his mother's homc.showlng the
revolver to some friends and remarking
thai he. was going on a journey. Going
Into the house on Second Street he told hit
wlto and mother that he had concluded to
go off and would leave for California In
the morning. His wife, for just what
cause Is not known, rushed bareheaded In
to the street.and west along Second Street.
Young Saltinarsh followed her, catching
up with her In front of Mrs. C. O. Lee's,
when he said t

I wish to call your attention to a report
see printed In your last week's Issue In
regard to the suicide of the daughter of
Perry Osborn,and to Inform yon that you
got your news from a false one, that is ae
far as any scandal Is concerned. There la
nothing scandulous about it. Miss Osbotn
had been In poor health for some years.hcr
health being poorer this winter than com
mon. II er mind was affected at times. It
is true she did love this boy and she
thought her love was returned, but there
was no love making between themor she
snubbed him and would not talk to blm
alter he was gone. She realized that she
loved him and was sorry she treated him
so rude. She committed suicide on slur
day, Feb. 8th, between sundown and dark.
She was twenty years old an the 2otn day
ot December she had Dcen reading me
Bible a good deal of late. It seemed to
have a deep Impression on her mind, was
In a deep study on religion when she com
milted the rash act. She left a note In her
bedroom saving, "I go up the creek and

One of the most remarkable utterances
made at the recent slate convention of
temperance people at Des Moines, Iowa,
was the declaration of the out going Gov
ernor Larrabre, that his experience as gov
ernor of the state had made him favorable
to prohibition, He said that he had form
erly opposed it as iuipracllcable,but that in
eighty conn lies In the state the jails had
been emplled.and tliv number of persons In
the state penitentiary reduced by one-half
during his ad ministration, and that court
and people were agreed that the cause of
this was prohibition. He said that the
taxes were less and the markets beltrr,and
that obicrvlng $ II these things In the ad
ministration of the affairs of the state li-
eould not help but become a prohlbi'.lonlst.
Governor Larrabee was distrusted by the
temperance people when elected, lest hie
known opposition to prohibition at the
time ot its submission should lead to the
use of his position as governor, to belittle
and defeat the law. But liU conversion to
prohibition while' administering a law
contrary to his personal convictions, Is not
less a compliment to the character of the
law than t. the sincerity and candor of the
convert. Union SlgnaC
Chief Jansscn of the Milwaukee, Wis.,
police has issued rules to his force. Among
these e re rules prohibiting an officer while
on duty, or In uniform, from visiting a sa
loon, or place where liquor is sold, or
known to be kept for sale or Is given
away, except when summoned therein
connection with tils duty as an officer. lie
must not visit placss of bad character ex
cept in the discharge of business, and he
must not smoke while on duty. lie must
at all times refrain from using profane.ob-
scene or abusive language, ami will not be
allowed to use cruelty or lo strike any one
in making an arrest or taking charge of
an ofiendei, but must use or.ly force suf
ficient to hold the offender In custody.
The New York Herald has long been
famous for journalistic enterprise, says the
Union Signal, and we are glad to see it, In
quest of truth concerning moral issues. It
has been asking the opinion of eminent
ministers as to the use of tSacco and lately
published their replies. These devout men
unanimously agree that the proper use of
tobacco Is not to daze the human brain.or
scent the human breath. Rev Wm R Al
ger, of Boston, says : "Smoking Is a vice
because It Is master of labor, time and
health j Intoxicating liquors and tobacco
ere the chie f enemies of the human race,
therefore no clergyman can be held guilt
less who does not set a personal example
In opposition to both," Cannon Farrar's
reply Is characteristic . "It seems to me
that when man has so many natural wants,
it Ja not desirable to add lo them another
want, which can only be regarded as artifi
cial," Dr Cuyler, Chaplain McCabe, Jo
seph Cook, Ed ward Beecher.Newman Hall,
Lyman Abbot, and the remarkable Dr Mc
Cosh add equally strong condemnation of
the tobacco habit.
