LOCA J, RECORD. The Casnkry. The Willamette Pack ing Company will buy all the black berries that arc brought to their cannery. This firm pays cash for everything and allow people to trade wherever they please. The cannery, notwithstanding some difficulty to obtain as much fruit as Is desired is having a successful season. This fall another large building will be erected and it is expected to probanly more than double the business next year. This will create an increased market for all kinds of fruits and many vegetables, and our farmers should prepare to meet the demand. No country in the world is better adapted naturally to fruit raising, and now that we nave a progress ive cannery should do more than meet its demands. Bonuses are demanded for so many things now-a-days that one is almost necessary in order to have an institution appreciated. All this institution has asked is the bonus of the good will of the people and it is entitled to their support. For Oregon. State Superintendent He Elroy arrived in the city last night, The Professor has been doing some remark ably active work f jr Oregon as well as for pur educational institutions. Most of the Eastern teachers passing through here are doing so at his suggestion, and the impres sion they are obtaining of our fair State is a good one. We should help them on. Friday a large number will pass through Suppose we deluge them witli apples, prunes, berries, etc., so that they will have a particularly good impression of Albany. At a nominal cost we can feast them on our fruits. A prominent Oregonian says to-day Albany has the brightest prospects of any city in the State beside Portland, and we must show our hand on every occasion, If we would help push things upward. The Pardon Business, Governor Pennoyer to-day commuted the sentences of three prisoners of the penitentiary. Wm Peek, who who was sentenced from Mult nomah county, Sept. 27th, 1SS6, for five years for larceny in a store, on the recom mendation of the district attorney, and in consideration of the severity of the sen tence. Aug. Schultz, who was sentenced fram Clackamas county April 23rd, i888,to five years for arson. The reason in this case was a grave doubt as to his guilt, bas ed upon the fact that all persons upon whose testimony he was convicted, have subsequently made affidavit that their testi mony in the case was false. In this sort of a case, a pardon is a hollow mockery. S.J. Kitchens, sentenced to five years from Polk county for an assault with Intent to commit rape, commutation based on the recommendation of the district attorney, and grave doubts as to his guilt, Journal. Plums. Plums are about the first thing that attracts the attention of the new com er, and the last that of the old settler. They area scarce article in most places In the East, Here they will almost grow on a post. In the yard of Mr. Viercck near here is a small tree that has broken and fallen to the ground on account of the im mense load of plums it has been carrying. The stranger passing by pauses and looks at it with wonder, and remarks at the great frultfulncss of everything here. Campaign Hats. The Oregonian claims to have settled this matter of plug cam paign hats. It says the democratic hat is a pearl plug with a white band; the rcpub. hat, pearl plug with a black band. There is such a confusion over the matter that you can't tell what a man's politics is by his hat anyway. Onk Tiiino.- -However much the Will amette valley papers may disagree on poli tics and a few other minor matters, there is one thing they are solid on to a unit, and that is that this valley has the making of the best fruit country in the world, and we propose a general 'and continued push forward together on this line. Errata. The Celestial arrested yester day for larceny left his $100 greenback at Fritz Huffman's restaurant, and not with Mr. Joseph as stated, lie is a cook at Huffman's. In the Star brewery row It was Eddy who was fined and not Clark ; but we d.1 not see as it makes much differ ence which one of the five had the fine fastened on him. Twenty-Sixth. Last evening several of the neighbors and friends of Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Twccdale gave them a surprise par 'y at their pleasant homo on Washington street, in honor of the twenty-sixth anni versary of their wedding. It was an In formal' but enjoyable affair, much appre ciated by all who participated In It. IIKMK AM) AllltOAK. New shoes at Head'. No. I fresh buttor at. Kentou's. Six shaves or a dollar at L.

He intends starting a commission house at the former piaco. J. D. Wilcox, proprietor of the Portland New, has also been arrested on the charge of blackmailing Dr. Mrs. Murry. This mat ter seems to be working up considerable feel ing in Portland. Miss Fanuie Davenport is to be in Port land. Itn't Albany nearly big enough to nave i annie nere one night, so that we can hear the beat actors perhaps who has been iu ureuon. John II. Magcher, ex-postmaster of Silver ton has bought out an Albany drug store.and ui move too stock to Kitzville, Vv. 1., where his future home will be. Salem Jour, not. What drug store, please. Mr. Doolittle.conneoted with the geodetic survey service, is in the city, the gnest of Mr rracK "rood, a relative. A Democrat man mistook Mr. Uoolittle for Prof Condon, of the Ssato University, to great is the re semblance. A Sai Case. To-day, Mrs. Nellie M, Holmes, wife of Mr. E. B. Holmes, of Shedd precinct, was brought to this city, and examined before Drs. G. W. Maston of this city, and Gaff, of Shedd, on a conv plaint of insanity. They found that, though her mind was not in a healthy con dllbn, she was not a fit subject for the asy lum, and she was discharged. Mrs, Holmes is a young woman of about twenty-four. Sometime ago a child died, the loss of which affected her mind, bringing on sev eral insane spells. Her father, Rev. T. J. Wolfe, also died several days ago, adding U her great sorrow. Mrs. Holmes is nat urally a very bright woman, and, with good treatment and pleasant associations, when her great sorrow wears off, will, we hope, be herself again. Void. Judge Benn on Monday decided that the contract for the construction of the Benton county jail was void, on the follow -ing grounds : "The statute of the State confers upon the County Court authority to construct jails and at the same time pro vides, 'that before it enters Into any such contract, shall give notice by advertisement published in some newspaper of general circulation in the county for at least three weeks before the time for letting the con tract, etc' The mode being the measure of power under the authority above citied, the contract in this case, not having been let as provided by statute is void." Withdrawn. The Salem Statesman is authority for the statement that Isaac My man, has withdrawn his bet with I). B. Montclth on the result of the coming elec tion. As the Democrat was first to make the announcement it continues the item. Mr. Hyman is invited to explain the mat ter. Mr. Monteith says this Is a fact, and gives as Mr. Hyman's reasons that he wanted Mr. Monteith to deposit coin in stead of a note and that he was tired of the immense notoriety the case had given him. The Democrat at the present time has no comments to make. In the City. Col. Lee, the affable Su perintendent ef the Indian school at Chem awa, is In the city, having come in dn the O. P. R. R. from Silctz Agency.whither he had gene for recruits for the school at Chem awn. He had with him five Indian lasses and five lads all for the school. The Col.

A Hardy Boy. This afternoon several boys were having some fun on the banis ters at the court house, when Chnriey Har dy, a ten or twelve year old boy, slipped and fell about fifteen feet to the stairs be low, striking on his head and shoulders, bruising him considerably, but fortunately causing no serious injuries. The attend ing physician said he would come out all right. Lost. Black wool shawl, in Albany, on Tuesday. Return to Dr. McAllister's office. lirowiwville. July 30, 1888. J.

He reports mat torn as being very dull. Since ths raius o June the grass has begun growing asin and prospects aro better than just before tho raiu. Messrs. Dr. Starr and Thos Kay and Mis. C. 11. iiisbop went to Albanj last Saturday. Airs. Dishop will remain 111 Aiuany lor a week, in order to receive nudical treatment from Dr. Jones. Onr town was almost entirely deserted Sunday, nearly everybody having gone to Linn's most popular summer resort, - Water loo. Last Saturday Mrr. O. P. Coshow, Mr and Mrs. Fraizsr and Miss Craee Kiley re turned from a week's sojourn at Waterloo, and Mrs, R, N. Thompson, MLa Thorpe and Miss Ida Cosbow departed for a short stsy at the Springs, A certain firm dealing in picture frames under the name of Ottnat & Fjb, located at 1105 and 1107 Market street, San Francisco, are Bunding circulars throughout the country asking for photographs for enlargement, promising to make you a full life size crayon portrait, free of charge. This firm has re cently been proven a bilk by one of our citi zens who accepted their proposition but could get no life size portrait without psying them a sufficint price for making tho por trait and still giying them a bandsome profit on their frames. To those who have ie ceived circulars yoa can depend they, the said firm, will never live np to what they promise in their circulars, tbey are only try ing to get a "bite." Messrs. A. Jack Adams, president of the Trinity Mining Corporation, and W. W. Stevenson, returned from their mines in the Blue Kiver Distriot last -week, and will leave again for the mines Thursday of this week. They are very much encoaraged over their prospects. All mining interests held by our citizens in that and the Calipooia District are on the look np. Owen Osborn sold to Ans low Young Saturday a one-half interest in an extension of the "Emma" in the Blue Kiver District furtive hundred dollars. Con siderable work is being done now and we soon hope to see a mill in operation at the mines and some returns coming to the pockets of those who are out of pocket so much hunting out those mines. We cannot refrain from noting the fact that every defender now of the republican party's high protection plank, whether through the newspaper or the mouth, assert that the "free trade" Mill bill will enable England to kill our infant industries. Ac cording to the Oregonian we are to have free trade in wool and lumber only and leave the manufacturers protected, yet that paper continually trys to show the people that Eoglaad would ruin til our industries. Let ns take wool and woolens and see bow they stand now and the effect of the Mills bill. If protection does the wool grower the good they assert, instead of wool being worth 16 cents here now our mills will bay It for i I cents or about two-thirds the present price. England under free tiade gets her wool for two thirds of what we do, pays lest for her labor and all kinds of material, consequent ly is not only able to driye onr manutctnr ing industries entirely out of foreign porta, and imports into this country about $44,000, 000 worth of woolen goods annually. But suppose the tariff' is to modified at to give too manufacturers of our country at cheap material of ail kinds at those of England get, except labor, and then give our manufacturers 40 per oent. protection, which is pretty near enough to pay the entire labor in our woolen mills twice, and then how it England going to hurt onr manufacturing industries? OUr papert are continually quoting from the English press te scare the people into the idea, that England wilt ruin our industries if the Mills bill becomes law in the face of tuch facts. How prupotterous. Surely they think the common people very foolish in deed. Does England produce wool and lum ber? Every one that has given the subject moment's thought must knowthat tho present bill would be the greatest kind i f a boon to our manufacturers. It would benefit the laborer and farmer too, for instead of paying a tribute of 60 per cent, he will have only 40 per eent to pay for hit woolens, and by keep ing out English woolen goods, as it certainly will, give our mills more steady runt and thus increase the demand, consequently the price of laser. One of its best measures, however, it the one that relieves the farm era' grain bag from a 2 cent tax, thus virtual ly bringing the over-taxed farmer one cent more per bushel for hit wheat by lessening the tax on his product. This is one feature of the bill we have failed to notice at being brought out by our republican paper men. We propose to look up tome of these matters between now and votiug time. KEAl. ESTaTtSAI,KS. Hhtel Arrivals. Change ok Time In addition to what the Democrat said several days ago In reference to a change of time on the South ern Pacific Is the following from a San Francisco paper : "General Manager A. N. Towne.of the Southern Pacific company, started for Oregon on Friday night in company with some friends. He has been In poor health of late, and In taking this trip he will combine recreation with business. It Is reported that hit tour has connection with the proposed changes In the train ar rangements of the Oregon line. A new express train is proposeo. An arrange ment will soon be perfected whereby the regular train for Portland will run up the Sacramento canyon by daylight.and eating houses are now being built at Redding and Shasta to accommodate the new order of things." Nothing-In It. As suggested by the Democrat there was nothing at all In the Item generally published that an opium smuggler had entered Yaquina Bay. In the first place there was nothing tangible to lead one to believe anything of It. Just a strange little craft entered the Bay, that was all. As recorded In the County Recorder's office of Linn county, Oregon : A Hackleman to Silas Shunn.i 10x1 13 feet bl 35H', 2nd A.!. ?.$ 45o John Rogers to Mathies Gerhard, 4 lots, block (a, Albany 2350 A Wheeler to Cecilia Cohn, 2 lots, block 49, Albany. 1300 Jonas R Bone to Andrew Laubner, 1 lot, Halsey , I3t, Mcdders Vanderpool to Geo R Cu't'it 80 acres, 11112 ,rXJO W D Tritesto Frank Trites, 125.35 acres, 10 and 1 1 w 2 and 3 3000 II Bryant to Charles Goehungcr 28.25 acres, u w 2 400 W T Pierce to Martha Berry ,Si acres .Tc":;:;;:,"-;- 4 lv u jvnanu, 105 acres, tp i2,e 1 C'rawfordsvilie.
