LOCAL RECORD. Speaks Out. The following from Ihe Lebanon Efrc s is at least entitled to a hearing : "Tho gambling hells eutraped many of the guileless in Albany on the 27th Inst., as usually with all circuses, Sell8 Bros, was no exception with its vampires blacklegs and cunning thieves. They set the bait so tempting, decoy so adroitcly that before the victim suspects any foul play, he is fleeced out of his rczdy cash. We are sorry that some of our Lebanon boys were so badly taken in by these low down thieves, and while they may be wiser and sadder men, it is no reason why this open and public wrong should be allowed under the very order of 'license' fiom the cky fathers of Albany. The municipal authorities have no right, moral or evil, to allow this public robbery of our citi.ens,for these open street robbers are no belter than burglars, and should receive the treat ment." Figurk It Out. Take your slate 'this cool Monday evening and te'.l the wherefore of the following : "A farmer had thirty geese which he concluded to take to market and sell at the rate ef two geese for $. His neighbor also had thirty geese which he asked the farmer to sell for him at the rate of three geese for $i. When he arrived in town with the si-:ty geeschc was met by a man whorsked how he would sell the geese. 'If you take all together you can have the lot at the rate of five geese for $2,' the farmer replied. The bargain was made and the farmer received his pay, $24. When he paid $10 to his neighbor for his thirty geese at three for $1 and counted his balance it struck him that he ought to have $15 for his own thi. iy geese (two for $1), while he only has $14, and he woiiderid what become of the other dollar. Why rMd he not have $i5for his geese ? Getting Even. "Dr. Freeman, of Mo lalla, was the other day arrested and ar raigned before Justice Randall to answer a charge brought against him of practicing dentistry without a license. The doctor waived examination and gave $300 bonds. The suit was instigated by one Thomas whom the doctor pummelled thoroughly for dragging his domestic affairs into the newspapers. Thomas' motive is apparent ly revenge." Statesman. Burned. Yesterday, Mamie, the three year old daughter ef Mr. Jos. Meyers, the blacksmith of Lebanon, was playing with some matches when they became igni'cd and her clothes caught on fire, burning rapidly. Fortunately members of the household were near, and the flames we. e extinguished ; but not until the little girl's face and arms had been badly burned, and in time to save the child's life. 'She is now doing well and will recover. Fire Meeting. There will be a special meeting of Albany Engine Company No. I this evening at their hall at 7:30, for the purpose of making arrangements for the formal housing of the new steamer. All the members of the Company are request ed to be preient. The M. A. T. The Man about Town is requested to ask the following question: Why Is it that Chinese made cigars are used almost exclusively In Albany, al though American mp.de cigars can be had here In abundance? Will some of our smokers stand up on their toes and give the answer? The Reason. While wheat was 75 uenls at Albany and 78 at Corvallis It was 70 at Salem. ' Were the Oregon Pacific steamers able to be running on the river the price at Salem would undoubtedly be equal to the Albany price, as it will when the fall rains set in.

To-day a party of thirty-one young men left Indiana for Washington Tenitprv, where they will form a stock company for the purpose of carrying on a stock ranch.

Any one leaving the busiriess will fo.fcit his invest ment of $500, which is the sum put in by each member. The yoi'ng men will do their own herding, branding and dealing, and will thus be enabled to avoid the ex pense ef cowboys. Those Interested in the move live mainly In the vicinity of Rich-mond.

The cost of living has materially increased in' Portland within the last three years.- We will 6ay nothing of the higher price of meals, etc., but call attention to tbe single item of fire wood Three rears ago a cord of fir wood cost $3.75, and Chinamen would saw, split and carry It into the cellar for to cents. Now a cord costs $4 ; the steam saw charges 50 kcui. a coro. 10 saw it ana vmnese demand 75 cents to split and house the wood.
