Ai-osiiTiiK O. P. The resumption ol
work along the (). 1'. has stirred up mat
ters some. The following is from a Salem
paper: "Geo. II. Judy and sou , and Mr.
Rice, of Mill City, were In Salem and re
port flattering prospects for that young
hamlet now that railroad work Is resumed.
The sawmill company is moving in men
and supplies, Mr. Judv is arranging to start
a boarding house, anil Mr. Rice just con
summated the saleof anicc piece of ground
there upon which a sanitarium is to be es
tablished by Dr. Gill, of Portland. The
postollicc will soon be in running order
aguin.
Rksilt of Anokr. William Davis,
who committed a deadly assault on Layton
Tindle, by striking him over the head with
a stake while at work threshing near Hall
ston, Polk cour.ty, last Fridry, came out of
hiding Tuesday, and gave himself up to
the authorities at Pcrrydalc, and was taken
to Dallas for examination. Tindle was a
little better yesterday, and was able to speak
and ask where he was. To-day he is
worse and cannot recover. This is a sad
commentary on the folly and crime of let
ting anger break through all restraints,
whatever the provocation. Journal.
Our Pkachks on Top. A Portland
commission merchant on being interviewed
said: "Peaches arc selling readily at an
average of $ i a box. Last year the price
varied , from 50 cents to $1 a box. The
higher prices arc due to the increased de
mand, rather than to a small supply ; in fact
the supply is larger than last year. We
are handling inure California and Oregon
peaches than ever before. The quality of
Oregon peaches Is very good this year, and
the demand for them is the largest, and
they bring better values than others.
Ratiikr Ukhakkaui.k Oar people who
have seen theechool teachers passing thiough
Albany mornings have taken occasion to
"poke fun" at the sued and old maidisb ap
pearance of the school ma'ams. Had they
been at the depot yesterday they wonld have
had an opportunity to comment at least io ooe
case . One of the teaehera was seventy-three
years of age, and had taught school riftv-two
years io the same room, where she ia now
teaching. Here is a ohance to talk about an
old maid ; but it is too sorinuit for poking
fun.
Discussions. When a large crowd it seen
in the heated disputation on some corner, it
a life to wager your ooat that the tariff
question is being riddled. A Dkmociiat man
recently approached each a congrcgetioc. A
Harrison man remarked that there was no
duty on wheat provided for in the Mills bill.
A Celevand man jerked out ten dollars and
offered to wager there was a duty nf 20 per
cent provided for. Then the Harrison man
said, "Well not on its going orrtof the United
States." This is about as admitted as some
people are in their knowledge of even what a
duty ia.
Now a Ranchkk Mr, W. B. 8ot.lt, is in
the city. He is now a resident of Lane coun
ty, whoro he has taken up a claim and pro
poses to ranch it. He is down after his horse
and to buy another one, Mr Scott has been
Chief Engineer of our fire department, mem
berof the Council and President of the Blue
Kibbon Club.
Died, Mr. S. F. Ilammer.a resident of
this county died on Wednesday, Aug. 15th'
at McComb, III., where he hnd gone for his
health. lie was 58 years of age and tame
to Linn county In 1SS3, his being the first
family to come to Albany over the North
ern Pacilic. His son residing at this city
received a despatch announcing his de
cease, A Warrant. A warrant was issued to
day for the nrrcst of a man ind woman
charged with breaking into Mrs. Bush's
place on second street with an axe,ctc.,ctc.
i'hey had been Inmntes of the place. Ai
they "lit out" on the noon train they were
not arresiea.
A Laddkr. A few davs ago a China
man helped himself to a ladder nt the St,
Charles hotel and carried it off, though sccn
the men thinking he had been sent for It,
The name of Race is on two of the steps,
and any one seeing it will confer a favor
by notifying Race Bros.
Still They Comk. The fine yields of
grain come upon us rapidly. Hon. R. A.
Irvine threshed 33 acres of fall wheat that
averaged 33 bushels per acre. A. Drowned
threshed acres of white wheat that aver.
aged 40 bushels pel acre. I Ic made a sale
of part of it at 65 cents.
Militia Hall. E. B. Davidson and
other carpenters arc engaged In repairing

O N. G.
Aiirsivi: I.ANiii Aiii;. The case of the
city against N. L. liloilgett, arrested on
complaint of Prof. I). V. S. Held, charged
with using uluihivc language, was called
this morning before Recorder I lenton. A
demurrer to the complaint was overruled,
and the case w;:s set for trial at i o'clock
before a jury of six men. It seems that
two or three years ago Mr. Iilodgett and
Prof. Rcid had a law suit over some busi
ness matter, In which the Prof, came out
ahead, Mr. Ulotlgett felt very bitter over
the matter, and since then, on nearly all oc
casions, und almost regardless of the cir
cumstances. Prof. Reid informs uw, Mr.
HlodgiHt, when he has met Prof. Reid, has
without any ceremony, called him an "old
liar" and various other epithets of a more
profane nature, to which Mr. Reid has al
ways refused to respond. It finally became
so annoying, on account of its frcquont
and studied repetition, that Prof. Reid con
cluded to put a stop to it legally if possible,
and hence the arrest of Mr. illodgctt. The
jury after being out a few moments
brought in a verdict of not guilty.
Thk New Stkamkr. No. i's new
steamer was given a thorough and satisfac
tory public test this afternoon, with Win.
N. Miller as engineer and Wm. Reecc as
fireman. In a cold water test it got up
steam in 5.45, 10 lbs. in 6:30, Jolbs. In 6:55,
and water In 7:30. Good time. Under
unfavorable circumstances it threw 225
fectand is good for over 250 feet. T'irec
powerful streams were thrown at one time,
the difficulty being to get strong enough
hose to stund the pressure. It will be ac
ceptcd bv the council. Several hundred
pcopc witnessed the test.
CovKRKii. Last evening Mr. C. G.
Iturkhart went into Curran & Monteith's
real estate office and covered the $1000
which had been pooled to cover the Albany
clerk's back down. The wager was ac
cepted and the $2000 deposited with the
First National bank. Of course it would
be. There are too many men in Ore
gon confident of Cleveland's election to al
low a little bluster to frighten them. We
understand there is at least $5000 narc that
will be produced at double quick time on
Cleve'nnd, if an opportunity offers.
A Crank. The following account is
given of a peculiar affair at Corvallls :
"Last Saturday a youth stepped into the
Gazelle office, saying he was James Floyd
and Sels Bros, agent, and ordered some
printing done, offering as payment an or
der on them, and signing their name to it
He also ordered joo photographs at S. B.
Graham's. He mentioned that he had two
or three other friends who had gone to Al
bany, but would return. Mr Conovcr of
the Gazette telegraphed to Sells Bros, at
Seattle as to his Identity, and on receipt ot
a negative reply declined to proceed wltn
the order
Returned. Mr. Dave Burkhart's
black dog advertised in the Democrat
last week has been returned. The parties
who stole it evidently saw the ad. In the
DE.MocRAT.and (hlnkiriir they were known
lett it near Mr. uurkliart s, so tnat It re.
turned home. They were seen to put it in
a wagon and carry It on.

Whilo we are noticing our Linn county
yields here is one from Polk county. Harrison
lirunk, about rive miles from Salem, recently
threshed out 106' acres of wheat, eight acres
of which were spring sowing, that yielded
forty bushels of plump, heavy grain to the
acre ; also, nine acres of oats that yielded
over sixty-five bushels an acre. Mr Brunk is
spoken of sa one of the best farmers in Polk
county. He has several relatives in Albany.
Helena, Mont., ia having lots of fun at the

shouldered, with none of which George was
afflicted. In other respects the statue is said
to feel quits welL Ex.
