Tbcrt) is another good text and illunt ra
tion how the A. & A. Imb business. The
directors act, anil you aro atonlshd,
not at windy announcement of things to
bo done, but at statements of mat tor
accomplished. The road will go through
in just that way. It has all tho tacking
necessary, and ran sot more. It is tho
proper routa to the noa and shrewd men
know It. They know that Albany !h the
idace to make the Junction with the
Oregon Pacific, soon to Ultimo part of
transcontinental route, and hence do not
hesitate to invent in such ft line. It
means much for Altany.
A Board or Tbadk. There has Wen
quite a general call among our business
men, Including all tho real estate deal
ers, for a reorganisation ot the old hoard
of trade, which hsut Uen defunct for a
year or more. In order to satixfy thin
demand and furnish Altany with one of
these needed Institutions, a meeting w ill
ta held at the W. V. T. U. hall on Friday
evening at 8 o'clock, for the punnwe of
reviving, if possible, the old lxard. New
officers will be elected, new committees
appointed and new members mi'imsl.
Now is the grand opportunity to get a
Kxtrd, and if our citisens.do not attend

Who SraccK Him. Yesterday the
Chinaman in the county jail for annull
ing Mrs. Murray with a butcher knife
was discovered w ith a very black eye and
bloody cheek. Some one had struck
him ft Sullivanic blow with ft Cut. As
nearly as could be learned, Clark, the to
bacco thief, np to his old tricks, had
stolen some tolwceo from the Mongolian,
who called him a live American name,
promptly resjvonded to. The evidence
though was conflicting, and as Clark de
nied it,the matter was almost an myxteri
ous as the famous blow received by Billy
Patterson. Bv the way the crowd of
eight in the jail was mostly a tough one.
8kvek Years ra tub Pes. William B
Daniels, or Billy Paniels.as be was known
in Albany, on Saturday, was sentenced to
seven years in the penitentiary for rape
on ft thirteen year old glrl.protably a just
sentence. Young Ianiels had the mak
ing of a good man, but his mind run in
the direction that cauxed his ruin, and
before he left Albany was disgraced, one
instance published in thelhcMucavr at
the time, resulting in Ianiels making a
standing threat to whips Dkjkkbat man
on sight. There should be a lesson in
the atfair for many other Altany youths.
Died DErrrrrr. The death of T II
Falladay,aged about (J3 years.occurred in
this city yesterday after an illness of a
few weeks. The deceased several years
since lived inCorvallis ; latterly he mov
ed to this county and for a year or s did
ft small merchantile unsiuess at Kagle
.alley. At the time of his death he was
destitute. J lis remains were lateen in
charge by undertaker Lew and will ta
buried this afternoon at 1 o'clock. Bak
er City Democrat. A good many Altwiny
people will remember Mr Fulladay.

of Linn county are requested to meet in
their respective precincts, at their usual
places of voting, on Saturday, March 23,

II Did It. One evening recently a
young lady visiting from Salem asked ft
young gentleman if he could transpose
the letters in "enough" so as to form two
words which mean not enough. He took
pencil and paper and struggled over the
firobletu for some time,wh-n suddenly his
see was illuminated by a look of holy joy.
The characters stood out before him in
this form : "one hog."
Stall Fed Beef. Ila'ght Eros., of this
city, have just purchased thirty-five head
of stall fed beef, twenty-one being secur
ed of Mr Green McDonald, paying 4 cents
gross, or about 8 cents net, the cattle
averaging about $V a bead. They will
be cnt up in the market, and the public
will ta assured of being able to get some
fine meat for several days.

ior (he ensuing year; J. Gradwohl,
Samuel K. Young, W. C. Tweedale, L.

and Charles Kiefer.
School Election. The annual school
election Monday was a clean sweep.
The old clerk and director gave such uni
versal satisfaction that everybody in
sisted on voting for them, and the elec
tion of John Foshay. as director, and C.
G. Burkhart, as clerk, was unanimous.
Something less than a thousand votes
were cast, enough to indicate ft big popu
lation for Albany.
B. E. Offices. Following is a list of
the real estate offices in Altany in the
order in which they were established
here: Burkhart & Keeney, Curran &

Made a Diffebence. it made a gooo
deal of difference to Deputy Sheriff
Kenney, of Clatsop, how it read. Ac
cording to the Statesman Deputy Sheriff
Fred Nelson took J. J. Kenney to the
Denitentiary. whereas Nelson was the
prisoner. A common mistake mot any
iaDer might make if the information
came from some bull-headed source.

sometime and is a rustler in the business.
Which is Business. A woman in Al
bany, on a small capital, during the past
vpur. made about 3.000 on real estate
speculation on Albany property. The
example is a good one.

(atksvili.k. The West Shore gives
datesville the following very encouraging
write-up: "(iatesville.Or, is a town on the
line of tho Oregon Paclllc.in Linn county,
that promise to tacouie a place of con
sidcr.thle ituihirtuuce. It forms the tase
of supplies for the mines up the San
tiani, which arc now being worked as
never before. Land has Wen purchased
there for extensive smelting works, and
the town is destined to develop ft good
business from the mining interests ot
that portion of the state. Opposite
tSatesvillo is King's prairie, which is
dotted with thrifty farm houses, while
across on the Marion county side is also
a rich country, from which a wagon road
is now Wing built. Uatcsvillo is now the
end of the division over which regular
trains are run. It is surrounded by some
of the finest timlier in Oregon, and sev
eral sawmills are running in the vicinity,
while others will ta started during the
summer. The town is provided with
two good hotels, and a considerable im
petus has been given to business and
building there."
Flours and Dm'sk. Saturday even
ing a lively contest in the eastern part of
the city resulted in a knock out on the
first round.
Among Sunday contents a man was
knocked out while asleep in an Altany
saloon, by a well known Altanian. The
victim failed to make a complaint, us he
threatened to do. At the li-jot a con
test between a Jap and a w lute resulted
in the former taing worsted. No arrests.
During the day John IV 11 imbiWd too
freely and wss juggcd.a His tirst offense,
and he won't do it again.
This morning a hard-working tiertnan,
who had been tailoring in the country,

to oliset disadvantages ot a long franchise
there is a provision to the effect that at

plant. If the price cannot bo agreed on
then at such retires as ft committee of

MOW BACKI.
You bear people commending ft city
often on account of its lacking. It has
such and such surroundings and advan
tages to make it grow. It can't help
going ahead, and then it lute something
to keep it ahead. In this respect Albany
may well court comparisons In tbe mat

highly favored.
It is surrounded by ft magnificent fann
ing and fruit country.
It adjoins one of the best mineral belts
in the world, development of which will
prove the assertion, iucn in gom ami
silver.
Near it are latent coal fields of untold
wealth.
An inexhaustible lumber supply is at
its feet.
It lies on ft navigable stream.
It is the huh of ft five spoked railroad
wheel, with at least two more preparing,
A tine water power runs into it.
It has the prospect in the near future
of terminal facilities, which will give it
wholesale advantages.
It is in the center of a healthy belt, ft
matchless climate taken the year round.
With sucn backings there can be no
question as to its f nture.
Keep your optics on Aioany.

High license is ft barrier to prohibition
rather than a step toward St. The liquor
men see this if temperance Toi)do not.
Hays 0 II Bowman, distiller at Wooster,
Ohio, "High license doc more to coun
teract prohibition fanaticism tnan any
thing else we can bring to bear." The
Christian Inquirer, conservative Baptist
so per ot New lorn city, sets lortn the
oily of high license as temperance
measure, very forcible, in a recent edito
rial, containing these woras : "wen,
gentlemen of the high license Utopia,
wiiat next ? You have asked us to wait
until high license could be fairly tried, and
you come tstck to us with the broken
fragments of your beautiful system in
your hands.and with sad and rueful coun
tenance say to us, 'It don't work.' Of
course it don't. Nothing will work that
leaves the liquor traffic to manipulate our
courts, frame our legislation, defy our
laws and defeat the ends of Justice. What
next.geiitiimcn ? What else shall we try
before we kill the liquor traffic ? What
new experiments?"
Mrs Anna It Itiggs.President of Oregon
WOTU, in a recent official letter urging
active work in the department of Scien
tific temperance instruction, says : "There
is not enough temperance sentiment in
the state to-day to enforce a prohibitory
law if we had such a provision in our state
constitution. If we do our duty relative
to this Scientific temperance instruction
law for the next five years.in addition to
other lines of work as given by our Na
tional WOTU, the women and men of
the latter half of the present decade will
have no necessity for any such humiliat
ing admission as the above. Push your
lino of work, push, push, push, and your
reward will be glorious."
