The news that the outlook for Albany aolirge the coming year ia the best in its history ia very encouiaging and the kind of newt our eitizeot generally tnould re joice in hearing. Sot alone the profeee- oft but the people of A man y generally f should nnite in giving tbia splendid ed ucational Institution a scholarship of a aise to make it felt in the etate. Its fac ulty ia a first clat t one and there need be no hesitation in backing it energetically. Thnaa who met Sir Wilfrid Lau.-ier in Washington during the st B'ioue tf tb fligh Joint Commission were prepared to view bis remaras concerning "Arbi tration or War," as a slip of the tongue, but his more recent refusal to at!end the Chicago eermoniea Incident to the laying of the corner atooe of the Po:t Offije building, or even consider so ial invita tions from this aide of the border, has caased a revulsian of feeling egain.t the Canadian Premier. E. P. Schlott, the wealthy manufac turer of Cadiz, Otto, who offered to boy a congressional nomination for f 10,000, on condition that the money should be spent to tend worthy young man to col lege, baa been raised $5,000. Ralph R Rait of Staebenville offers $15,000 for i tue tame nomination, "'r' that the m3ney ehall be epeat to ttart a school to train voang men ia political 'andeocial ecieoce. There i J no telling to what this latest Ohio idea may lead. 'Shon" at he waa called by the gool aaturid German for wliombe worked was adanced;from cash boy to bead clerk iiid tincebit promotion bad several times sked for an Increase ia ealary, which "-t invariably granted. At last he a ain appeared at the oldlmerchant'a derk nth another rtquett for an increaee,but business was somewhat dull, and the ferman tbongbt "Shon" wat receiving 11 he deaerved, engaged bim in the fol string conversation: "Shon, I tink I baye you putty veil al etty.vatfor I bayt you anymore?" lhon replied confidently, "1 am yonr rincipal help, and know every deUil of oar business, an J tha truth of the mat r is that you could not get along with A me." Eeplied the German, "Is dot a?

Webfoot generally ' coinee out about right It uiey have win n wrong I'm of the ynr, but all I well that ends well. Sone people continue to cry that tha kiog can do no wrong. But such talk ia nn' in n'.aca In a despotic government where a man wocld Iota his life if he told the truth. Tha thootlna of Ltbori lusutes the sal vation of Dm fas so far as the court of justice ro. Bat so fvr as human hatred a eoncerntd Drrvfus may fH by the assasaiu'a bulist. Tnat is the resent French gait, a very crtokvd one. The day when even country newspap ers end their personate wlt VceGaeagaia, tiy "our old frierd," tell about their subscribers leaving tubitavtial evidences of their appreciation.aokoow edge the re ceipt of weeding cake and such things it fast parsing away, and these things are vary rarely seen noada)t. It is well for we no Ion ger w ear k nee breeches . The student can go through Albany college (or less thsn on hnodred do'tars a year, not ii e odiog clothing and lux uries, but including board and tuition. Few schools any waere can onVr tucb ad vantages for the young man or yonng woman in poor circumstance. In con nection with h'a etatemeut it mav be added that the moral Influences of the school and surroundings are such that little call ia made on the etudeot for tLinijs other than the education being sought. , The Broad Axsot E'igene epiead it self on the reception of the soldiers ss follows : Even at tne early hour thousands bad gathered at the depot and through the street to receive tha solJieie. Tbty bad come in from every direction for miles around to honor the occasion . Old men and yoaog, old women and young, wo men and children of all aues and aexes were '-gathered there and then . Like Belgium' proud capitol" Eugene bad gathered there bet beauty and chivalry. That convention in Chicago to consider trusts will be a very funny affair, made np as it will be of man from all parties. Opposition to trusts oy memoera oi me republican party so long aa the adminis- tiktion is fostering and building tbem op at a terrific rate, will fall flat on the mass es. If the same men rtaod by the troats now why won't they jast the same if re eected. Of course they will. Tbs tariff policy of the republican party lias been a tiust end monopoly boilder f it many jeart;JoB)K;tiBce the United States reach ed a position wiisre n coma eiaoa aioor. There ie no hope in seeing trusts put down by men who are building tbem up It doesb't take much d;s:eroment lo fig ore that out. Manila correspondent in Leslie's Weekly : Speaking of those short rush es forward, a queer thing happened at Goiguinio, where perhaps half of the tjldieif in one regiment found hens. Before it wat time to kill the fowls or ders came to go fcrward. A little further oot the regiment lay down under fire for come minutes. Ihen came the order to charge. Up and forward with a yell rnsLed the soldiers, bnt over the chest ing rose another sound . Tares or nor hundred bens, objecting to being carried bead don with feet tied to fie strap of a baversaca, set np a frantic squawking aucb as waa probably never beard along a line of cLargiog military btfore. Chaplain Gilbert is receiving many words of praise in different parts of tte state. The m-mbers of the regiment area unit in their wotde for bim, and many declare that be waithe most pop ular man in the rvgiment, a fine thing to aay when it ia remembered that there were several popular men in tbeieg m?nt. Rev. Gilbert exert.'d a splendid iaflaence among the men, because be was a man among tbem, living bit ctiric- tianity from day to day, in camp and on fie field, and be deserves the tributes paid bim. The example is suggestive lit the ministers generally, that lbs way to do the most effective work is to be just a common every day kind of a man among men, wunout any sua necxro, red taped style of proceedore. We are fortunate in having tu:b ministers in A) bany. The Philippine islands elephant con tinues to grow. The insurrection Is spreading ine'.tad of carrowiog. It looks rough for an independent country to be subjecting the people ot another eras try, but we have the job on our bands and it should be pushed if at all aa wa are in a position now where it will ta very bard to let go , The Demo crat doesn't look opon Aqulnaldo st a patriot but as a hireling of some foreign nation. The Philippine islands are a tenth rate country and oot a desirable acquisition, but what are we to do, with the other big nations of the world stand ing ready to gobble tbem np if we are to let go. It is a bad situation for certain that baa been cast opon as, cne that will take hundreds of millions of dollar! and uany Uvea to settle where a reasonable compromise in the first place ought to bave saved all the trouble with the na fives . SATURDAY WIGHT TnOUGIITS. The Puilipptue war coulloue in the tatre old bushwhacking style o.adt necessary by the tactics of Aqulnaldo, and It looks very muco at If it it to bt at long as the Atlantic! cable.

The freedom ot the French man at a man ia tn it. A greeay cormo rant ttiniis aith aluttonjut ere over Justice. It Justice fall! prey totyranny then t ranee ia undone, and tne wnoie world will suffer. These are dayt whsn the heart beatt of men throb together from Albany to Rennet. e The oast week has been a critical one (or the farmer ot the Northwest, more than that for our piople generally, on account of a rainstorm thai was not oeedrd solar as could be Judgtd. Ibete vi. dinztr of the crops being sadly damaged it not ruined, but at Saturday nUbt reachea us the prospects ars brigl taniog and our usual good outlook isbeforsns. Rain is in plase bre in December and January and several othe months, but not in August, usual y ins clearest, hottest month of ths yi-ar. A vounu man in Albany Una week minted thinua red In a very savage manner while under the influence cf liouor. When sober he ia a very peace able young man, but when drunk is said to be a terror. 1 he result has been a great maoy serious disturbances. Men knowiaa hia condition should never be guilty 'of selling him liquor knowing what tha result will be. and as tie it a danger lo a community when hs appears he should be taken care ot at once Be fore be geta steamed np for trouble. Ia Oregon'politict the most interettlng tbing is the arraignment of the present administration particularly its head be the leading paper of tha etate. With a Junius pen Harvey Bco't puoctures the president a tire, and shows that be la tha mere tool cf the politician. Ho p'eads fnr the people to take beart and not remaia supine. Ths people are listening. What will they do? In 8n Francisco this week a couple of men were having a legal fight before a big audience wheo one crushed the stall ot the other and be afterwards died. Was that murder? People who pay big price for brut ility mart take what dotes. A big lump of caution !s a big thug in this world. A young mao in Portland this week white handling an electrio wire received a shrck that resulted in hit death and a yonng lady in Salem mistook a bjttle of carbolic acid i t cam- Dbor and did not live very long. Atter all life hangs by a thread and tt doesn't take much to break it. Tbe best lite a person can live ia none too good . Keie is a miitbty good story, ai d prtb ably a true one, that 'Captain (,'ogblan told at the Winfield meeting; Dewey sailed into Manila harbor, fought hit bat tie and and tnea cutthe cable. Tbe Eng lish .-tdmiral wanted to help him, but didn't dare. Bat be thought that Dewey migut lake a hint. So the knglien a1- aural sailed over t J Dewey and aaid . "Ah, I see you have cut a cable." Yes." answered Dewey. "Which on?" asked the innocent English admiral. And then Dewey, knowing for tbe first time there were two cables, rustled back, grappled for tbe second cable, and rat it. Ex. Times are yery bad in Australia, and workmen are said to be "humpiog the blury" from one end of the continent to the other in vain quest for work. In Vic toria it ia estimated that 10,000 men ar. out of employment, while in Sydney 4, 000 and in adelalde 3,000 have registered at tbe labor office. Tbe cause is raid to be tbe prolonged drontb from which the wbols of Australia, not a generously wat ered land at tbe beet, hat been suffering. -Ex. President L'ncolo, one morning, fonnd that a robio'a nest, containing three little robins, bad been knocked off J aa evergreen tree near ids wo us musi by acareleit cab-diiver. Kneeling on the ground and putting the bfrdt back In tba nest be replaced it taying: "These birds are helpless, and I will make them happy again." Washington advised as to keep oat of difficulties with other.netions, but though every tteamer going op and down the Potomac tolls its bell when passing tbe bomejof Washington, it teems quite clear that some of oar politicians of to-day thick little of bia advice.

Some people kick st the weather lore, caste, ss it they never right, but a record is kept in the m titer and It la a (act that over 80 per rent ol the predic tions are correct. So there it a good deal ot reliance to be placed n theui. 1 h-r it a constant demand for houses to rent in Albany, which will iocroaee at the time for opening of the schools ap proaches.

Bet he hat tymoethy for tall people, and ihe city council aiight well atop their monopc lietic attention to bicycles long enough to make an order ered eating tbe evil. The Sab m Sentinel tayt there it a good deal of talk of a successor to Con gressman Txngue, for that ia the pro gram, that Til Ford and Dinger Herman are not in it, but tbattnere are ottie-s, and mentiout Claud Gatcb and W, 11.

It is a peculiar fact that wheu money or a watch it lost they are not generally found, indicating that there are a good maoy dishonest people ia this world. Occasionally the opposite is true. One lady tbU week loet ber purse containing three or lour dollars. It was found by one ot the eistera of tbe academy, who immediately notified Ihe Dbmocbat and shortly altei wards word was als rtceiv ed from the owner, and tbe money wat restored quickly. A refreshing incident. The Jefferson Bee, of Jefferson, Iowa says : I have spoken before of the loyalty of all the inhabitants o the Willamette valley to the country. They talk most about the climate and its heathfulnest, bat they are sure the whole business is the beat God ever made. You absolutely cannot find any kickers. They are oer fcctly satisfied and supremely content. They say they have occasionally had an Iowa man come out there whodidn't like it, and after six months went back home. Ia nearly every rase they say he has come back to Oregon the next year to stay. Tn is unanimous contentment it tignificant. And the sneering, way in winch they talk about cyclones makes an Iowa man mad. And ttien he hits ut for our cyclone ttory credulity. The Dimocrat hsa received a copy of the York, Penn., Dispatch, with a wri lo op of tbe editorial trip at faraa Portland, The editor tayt of our climate : The climate it delightful. There are no extremes of temperature at any sea son. The mean temperature of Portland for 25 years hat been 63 deg. The sum mer temperature rarely goea above 80 deg. and the winter below 32 deg. The year it divided into rainy and dry sea toot. Most of the rainfall takea place between April and Novemoer, when it it nauall advisable to keen cloee compan ionship with an umbrella. Last winter while the east wat shivering under awav-bclow-zero temperature, fa Port land rosea budded and blossomed all through November, December and Jan uary and in February spring began don ning her robtt of leaf and flower. Bliz zards andtornadoes are unknown. It is as heathful too as it it delightful and Port land has the reputation ot being the healthiest city in the country. Although enjoying such a delightful climate from the city can be seen Mt. Hood and Mt. Helena with their constantly anow capped tops, sixty milea away, lifting their lofty peaks far into the blue iky. I. O. O. F.
