Wants a Bonus. A Mr. C. E. Smith,
of San Jose, Cal., has been In the city pros
pecting for a creamery. He proposes to
buy fire or si v. hundred acres of land, stock
it with cows and establish a first-class
'creamery and all he asks is a bonus of
$5000 from the citizens of Albany. A
creamery is no doubt needed here, and the
Democrat Is in favor of one as well as
every other kind of an industry that will
help build up the community ; but it
doesn't believe it is right for a big bonus to
be asked for everything, whatever the na
ture. This bonus business though is sort
of ajmatter of competition with other cities,
and to quite an extent is a necessary evil.
It is a fact that now-a days if a city gets
anything of any importance it takes a
bonus to get it, and we have to take tilings
as they come or get left out in the cold.
. False Economy. Ycstcsday morning a
farmer, a German, living in Polk county,
whose name could not be ascertained, was
driving into the city with a load of sixty
bushels of wheat, and when just this side
of Harritt's place, coining down a hill, he
fell off, and the hind wheel of the wagon
passed over his left leg, terribly lacerating
the flesh, but so far as known, not breaking
the bone. The unfortunate man was help
ed to his wagon by his brother, who was
following him with another load, and they
drove into Salem, unloaded their wheat at
the Salem mills, and then came back to
Fry's drugstore, where the brother pur
chased a bottle of liniment. The injured
man declined ta have a physician examine
his wound, savins' it would cost loo much.
He applied some of the liniment to his leg,
and then drove off for home. Statesman.
" A Country Fire. Yesterday noon the
residence of Mr, Mark Iluiburt, about six
miles southwest of Albany, was entirely
consumed by fire, together with his barn.
The furniture was mostly sayed ; but 600
bushels of wheat and considerable hay,
went with the barn. Several of the fam
ily were Inside of the house, when one of
the children rushed In and cried that the
house was on fire. All efforts to save the
buildings were unavillng. The fire prob
ably caught from the flue. The house was
insured in the Hartford Insurance Com
pany for $800, H F Merrill, agent, and the
barn in the Albany Farmer? and Mer
chants' Insurance Co. for $600.
Military Ball. 'F" Co's. grand mili
tary ball to be given Sept. 14, will be the
event of the season for dancers of Albany
and neighboring places. If you are fortun
ately the recipient of an invitation do not
fail to attend. Parson & Bray's orchestra,

To the "Incurably" Sick. Dr. Pilk

ous Histogenetic medicine by which Dr.

A Fight. Quite a fight is said to have
taken place last night at a 2nd Street house
with the red curtain sign. A young man
present says it was caused by jealousy. No
arrests were made, as the morning train
left too early, ihe principal combatants
leaving for other fields on the Portland
train.
Another Pouch The dispathes to-day
say that another mail pouch has been lost.

school teachers In this couniy to supply
the fall demand. ...The firm of Hahn &
Fried contemplate closing out their mer
cantile business here. It Is not from a
fear of the decline of business In Prlneville,
or through any fear of the instability of the

business. . ..The Sommervillebrothers,who

Hungry for Apples. Albany did not
make as great a mistake as Salem for we
gave the G. A. R. excursionists flowers
while they gave them peaches, etc. A citi
zen of Salem put it about right to a reporter :
"What they were hungry for was big red
Oregon nppln, and do you know we didn't
give them one ? They asked for them, and
we had to confess that apples were so com
mon in Oregon that we hadn't looked upon
them as the one thing above all others
which they would appreciate, and so we
didn't bring any. The fame of Oregonapples
is so prevalent In California that many peo
ple there think we don't huve any thing
