THAI' ADVERTI.iEM.ENT BUSINESS.
In answer to the article published
in yesterday morning's Hkkai.o,
and signed by Curran & Monteitli,
we, the citizens of Albay, deem it
riiilit and just tiiat we slioulU make
some answer to the same in behall !
of the citizens, whereby the en
eral public may know the true sita
aiion of the matter.
In the first place, Messrs Curran
.Monteitli ..ay that their adver
tisement, inserted under the citi
zens' advertisement in the Daily j
Oregoniau, ws simply a business!
deal, which we admit was true, and
was tlone solely for the purpose of
deceiving the general public and
thereby reaping the benelits to be
derived from the advertisement the
citizens were paying for, which in
Hie oegmning goes lo show to the
public how generous this firm pro
pose to be in matters of public
spirit and enterprise.
In this connection it might be
added that one real estate firm oi
Albany alone have vouchereto show
mat iney have expended more in'
one month fur the purpose of ad
vertising the resources of Albany
than the firm of Curran it Monteitli
have in any one year. As for aid
ing public enterprises the people of
Atoany have yet to learn that tiiis
(inn has given as much for public
improvements as a dozen or moie
ci.i.ens w no were present at the
meeting when the advertising space
was OMk-red to appear blank.
in the second place this iirtn of
Curran t Moiiteidi ask what right
a number of real estate men an i
their friends have lo hold a meet
ing and authorize the hcyocian to !
remove tioiu itn coluirns an adver
tisement which tlie citizens of Al
bany paid for, and many of whom
lesir.; it to continue. Now in an
swer to this query we w.!l say that
if tin; wrher ol the above had
been .it that mee'ir.g as he was re
quested to be, tie wouid not ask
this question, for if he had been
present he would hare seen there
a large attendance of Albany's best
citizens, many of whom weie not
connected with any real estate linn
and men, too, who have the best
interests of the city at heart, men
who desire to see the city o'. A.
bany pr-sper. This is the clas of
men who voted to have tlie space
in the Oregoniau appear blank, and
this is the class ol ctitizeiis, too,
woo did not. desire to see their ad
vertisement which they were to
j;y lor mixed up wiin any real
estate firm's adveitisemei.t, as it
wuis. as they were advertising tin
city and not a real estate firm.
And we hereby publicly denounce
the business methods employed by
mis lirai of Cm ran V Monteitli,
i:. i p.nticu ar.y the scheme which
they practiced in obtainiog this
contract from the Oregoniau.
Signed, Many Citizens.

THE NATIVE RED M E
inriiiAiiiiinriU jilu
A Seno-C.mic View cf the North
American Indian.
THEIR WONDKIIFl'I. APPETITE
Thfir Hnntinj Grounds Have Been Cot Dp
Into Cornrr Lota-Indian Barjiig
Gronnd leir Aliany.
It was a sad day in the history of
the North American Indian when
he first made tne acquaintance of
Christopher Columbus. It is a fact
however, that the Noble Red Man
supposed Christopher anil his at
tendants to be spirits from the
Happy Hunting Grounds, and he
was, therefore, received with more
respect and veneration than would
otherwise have been accorded him
Christopher recognized the fact,
and on his next voyage brought
over several barrels of spirits in a
liquid state, that not only satisfied
the p or, untutored savage, but
m:ide him think that the Happy
I Hunting Grounds of his fathers was
located all around his little wig
wam. The Noble Red Man at hi very
best was never an entire success as
i u iitviiioipiv in ie sure, in n s
dealings with the early pioneers he
made several stakes in his own
simple, primitive fashion, and gen
erally managed to make it pretty I
warm for his adversary, still l.ncle
I Sam got the land and the Indian
I got left. 1 might have said that
he got "soup , out he didn t. e
have never had any knowledge of
the fact that the Indian used soup
! as a daily diet, though he had a
! wonderful appetite and could eat
anything from a buffalo to a edi
culus (humans) oapitis, and a pot
of boiled dogs were considered a
luxury that was only indulged in
by the elect of the" tribe. There
have been some strong objections
raised to the Indian's diet, but for
the life of me I cannot see why an
Indian shouldn't eat a dog if he
wants to, provided, he comes by
the dox in a lawful manner. There
ire pientv oi wiid-eyeu inongrcis
roaming at large with no visible
means ol supivort, who would choer-
fully eat an Indian il they got a
chance, and turn about is fair play.
At all events a well digested liste
stowed away on the inside of an
average Indian docs more toward
the advancement of civilization and
Christian religion than an infernal
crazy-eyed canine who goes out in
the back alley and howls all night
at the moon; but this is diverging
from the subject.
The North American Indian, the
wild, untutored savage, who is sup
posed to have arisen from his sim
ple couch two or three hours before
davlight and gone to some towering
i cliii'and stood upon a rock in order
to inhale the hrst sweet breath of
the new-born day has faded from
among us he is a relic of the past,
and many moons have traveled
over his ashes. In his place, bow
ever, we have the Jovernment Pet,
a half civilized sort of a cuss who
takes the world easy; he also takes
the rations and clothing that the
government' supplies, with the
same easy grace.

A TETEEAN SHOWMAN.
Ai Interesting Interview With Billy Arlim
tin, The Pioneer Micttrel.
Thinking that some reminis
cences from a pioneer show man of
the Pacific coast would be of interest
to the general reader, Billy Arling- I
ton, the veteran showman, who
has arranged to give an entertain
ment for the benefit of the Albany
fire department at the opera house
Monday evening, was interviewed
at his hotel yesterday tya IIkkald
reporter.
"How long have you been in the
show business, Mr. Arlington?"
was asked.
"Nearly all mv life. I iegan at
the age of 18 in New York City and
have been before the public con
tinuously since. My first engage
ment of importance was with Geo.
N. Christy, the founder of nain
strels'. We were located on Proad
way, and the famous James
U ns worth and Eugene were in our
company.
"In the fall of 1H00 the company
made a tour through the south.
At Charleston a secession meeting
as being held at the Mills House,
and we serenaded 20,000 people
from the hotel balcony and I at
tended a banquet in the evening at
w hich Jeff Davis, Robert E.Lee,and
others, were present without even
knowing the object of the meeting "
Mr. Arlington founded the
Arlington, Leon, Keiley A Doniker
Minstrel Co., helped build two
opera houses in Chicago, and came
to the Pacific coast in 1875 with the
famous Ben Cotton, and played the
part of comedian with Tom McGuire
at a salary of $250 per week.
He afterwards made a trip
I through Oregon and tlie coast with
.Momgomery queen s circus, in
which Patti Rosa was then the
leading star.
"You have evidently traveled
over a good bit of this continent?"
"Yes; in my travels I stopped in
New Mexico. Most of the people
lived in adobe houses and in barns.
It reminded me of Hamlets solil
oquy "do be or not do be." A
Mexican offered to trade me a little
burro for un admittance to the
show , but as the little beast was
busily engaged in chewing up a
liueu ulster 1 did not interfere with
ibis repast. The burros are harm
less if the children fall they can
climb on again up over their ears
1 shipped one home to my little
girl in New York. The people in
that country did not know what a
burro meant. The shipping agent in
making out his statement, wrote :
A bureau short and a donkey
over"
"Billy lO.nerson was one of my
company and staid with me two
years. The famous Hanigan &
Hort were also members of the
company, also, Bobby Newcomb
the lamctis song writer."
"Well, Mr. Arlington, how do
you like Albtny."
"I like it very well indeed, 1 was
here years ago. and it is pleasing
to return and tind Albany deve.oped
into a thriving metropolitan city.
I like the lire system the lire lads
all work in uni.-ou and that contri
butes largely toward making the
success of anv citv. The people of
Albany seem toappreciate the city's
excellent lire uepurimeiii.
"I notice you don't have many
inosquitos here." he added.
"Musquitos are good boarders, they
settle their bills every night. They
are ids... good poker players; every
time they draw they '.ill. Put

"'No indeed;" they poked their

"Then you did have them."
