ot the Albauy Herald tliat was taken
over lj tlio Albany democrat tills
week.
"1 darted the Herald October d,
187LI, and will have to admit that it
was for political purposes only at the
start," lir. Steel said today. "LiU'j

"The republicans won all the major
offices at lie election which was held
in June that year but the period
prior to the day of election wus one
of trial and tribulation for editor
who took an active part In the cam
paign especially the editor and pub
lislirr of Uie -Herald, ' .Mr. bteel
laughed.
Threats ire Made
Mr. Steel tells interestingly of the
threuts made agn.nxt his lile and the
many hitter controversies that result
ed lrom the drive to control Linn
county. Although at times the situa
tion was critical the little weekly Her
ald weathered the giile and when the
campaign s over Mr. riterl turned
the paper over to others and for over
43 years it hal appeared regularly.
"Although tun Herald had plenty of
editorial pep when necessary to drive
aunfts at the opposition it was a very
sickly journalistic infant in the way
of finances," the founder smilingly
admitted. The total cost was

to pay the freight on the little hand
press and type sent from l'ortland.
1 bought a sway backed mule on
credit, a saddle, also on credit. I stood
off the lsndlonl for rent and then
went to press without any such lliiur
iea as paid advertisers or subscribers"
is the way Mr. Steel describes ni
launching of the new Albany sheet.
County l Covered.
The editor and publisher slntea that
he covered the entiro county on his
old sway-backed inulo in the interests
if the CI. U. 1. and that many of his
editorials were written while the pa
tient critter" ambled along the road
and his rider tliough out bitter sar
casm to hurl at the democratic oppo
sition. "Martin Brown was the editor or
the Democrat at that time and al
though political enemies w got along
fine," Mr. Sleel aid. "My Urowu
had strong confidence In a democratic
victory and sent east for a number of
big wood cuts of crowing roosters
that he intended to decorate his pages
with the day following tho election.
The result of course precluded the
use of roostors In the Democrat and
-1, displaying a. full measure ot nerve,
asked Mr. itrnwn to loan mo cm
use In the Herald that day. I didu t
get them," Mr. Steel admitted.
That those taking an active part ill
the campaign on behalf of their fa
vorite were lso willing at all times
to back their opinion and judgment
with ronr money is the statement ot
Mr. Steel. Two men went into bank
ruptcy following the campaign as a
direct result of too much confidence
along this line, the former editor said.

Trices of eggs In Eugene ro slight
ly higher now than ul this time last
year and indications aro that there
will be higher prices In the fall, ac
cording to local dealers. Many eggs
are being purchased now at about
25 cents a dosen for storage and this
higher price will appear in the nun
talions when these eggs are sold In

eggs in oil before storage. This pro
cess called "guaranixing' puts a thin
coating of parrafine on the eggs and
this closes the pores keeping the eggs
