LOCAL RECORD. Don Water Power. Our oontemporary ay Mr Crawfoid wants to aell the d'toh and water works for $1SO,090. This amount alio includes tha mill property and ware house. The original cost of the ditch, water works, mill and ware house, crowd $150,000 pretty close; if it does not exceed it. If Mr Crawford could be induced to sell the ditch alone, we doubt if there would be any trouble In disposing of it; but so long aa the Foster nit ia pending it will be dicult to dispose of the mill too. It is certainly unfortunate for Albany that an institution thit has done more to advertise the ci.y than anyth'og else in it should to a certain extent be tied up. Hnk H,r. ar. I,, ..A.,, t- .......tki..;. While Mr Crawford doea not wish to grant a perpetUwt lease, we understand he will be glad td lepae different powers for several J rears. Perhaps the request for a perpttual ease is a little too muoh to be asked now. The price for water power from the ditch is now and always hai been reasonable, and probably will be. Most men starting a fac tory here would be willing to take a lease for a reasonable number of y jars. In the ca ,e of the woolen mills why cannot Mr Kay be .induced to do so. The Silverton Tragedy. In ref;r encetothe SiWerton atalr mentioned in the Democrat the Vitletleal Salem savs : "On Friday afternoon Charles Smith, a son-in-law of James Magers, who lives 0.1 his ranch near Silverton, became involved In a dispute with one of his Chinese hands, in the course of which he broke a fork handle over the Chinaman's head. It seems that the Chinaman and a white boy were loading some sheaves and the load slipped a little. The Chinaman was e.ideavoKng to hold the grain on when Smith came alone. The bov blamed the Chinaman ?or the load slipping. The laiier denied it, and the lie ppssed between the two. The.i Smith took a hand In the controversy, and me vninaman called mm a liar, whereupon Smith struck him with the fo. kon t.ie back of the head, tearing the scalp, and as near as can be learned, fracturing the skull. The Chinaman was carried, iu.ensible into a new house just being built and made comtorttaoie and a aocor sent for. A re poitofthe occurrence reached Sllve.-.on, and bmlth was arrested on Saturday." A Will. Sometime ago Mr. D'Houdt died In California leaving propel '. valued at $80,000 to $100,000. He left all of his property to his second wife arcod'ng to the wl'.l in her possession ; but it seems that he had before made ano'.her will leav. ine nearly all of the property to Mis. Van Wlndle, who resides In the Third Ward in this city. It is now proposed to contest :he last will. Sham Thincs. Mr. William Forlm'ller has a fine stock of pi1 low sham holders, at almost half the customs "v price. Also a stock of two part mattresses, a new (hing, and no sham either, the best arran-emen of the season. He has biorght on o.nefi'.ie upholstering goods for chairs, K11 iges,' c. Old things maderbout as good ai new or ineir use. Chi I on Mr for. miller for tie best furniture generally. 6 to 7. The capacity o! the paper mill mentioned In the Democrat yes'erday is 6 to 7 tons a day Instead of 67 as the types made us say yesterday. Such a mill here would be a splendid thing for the fanners of the tur.'ounding country, as it would offer a splendid market for their straw, and thousands of dollars worth, now bu.-ned, cbuiu De sold. 1 A B ar, Story. Brother Guild, of the Silyerton Appeal, tells the following story, and of ooorse it may or may sot bo trot: IMr McAllister, oajght a bear in a trap up 00 Silver oreek last Saturday.

This morning a young man was riding his bicycle along First Street when he was attacked by a dog, which grabbed htm by a teg, pulling him and the bicycle to the ground, and then sprang for his neck, which he failed to -reach. Of course the young man was mad at the dog. Who wouldn't be. Came Over. W. A. Cox came over from Independence yesterday o superin tend the plastering on the Foshay & Mason block.

The water has fine medicinal qualities and will cure corns, Awiiter in the Prineville Newa writing about them says : "These springs are three in number. They are situated en the north bank of the McKenzle river in Lane county, and at the foot of mountain that is probably 15,000 feet In height, the lower side of which h heavily timbered with fir, i: summit beiiie crowned wlt'i a n-nn. dkuilar precipice (rlmrock) at least two hundred feet nigh. They are about eighty miles west of Prineyille and about si-:ty mi'.es east of Eugene City.'' Probably no s ate in the Union has as many suitable ' " r summer resorts as Oregon, and it Is like'y these hot springs will some day become as famous as the hot springs of We Blush A gentleman whose opin Ion is to be valued writes as follows, giving us a "send oil" that is greatly appreciated in these days when there are so many peo pie who think they know more about Tun- nlng a newspaper than the editors them selves : "When so large and fat a paper comes to me as the last Issue of the Week ly Democrat, I think it my duty to clap you a little.

The Democrat has about concluded that Albany is a peach country, so many fine peach trees are be ing brought to our notice. Cnpt. E. J. Lannlng has just handed us an eight incher that Is a beauty. It was from a tree raised from a seed planted three vears airo. Our citizens are advised to plant peach trees generally on the south side of some build ing, and they wilt be sure to reap a harvest In the future. . . ' An Old Story, The story is circulated that a few ysars ago a man traded a mule for tweuty acres of land near Tacoma, and that he has just been offered $10,000 for it; but wants l-UOOO.
