LOCAL RECORD. Housed. No. I'incw steamer was form ally housed this afternoon, with very little of the old time enthusiasm, there being only sixteen red shirts In the procession. At No. 2's Hall Mayor Cowan in one of hit- characteristically pointed speeches turned over the eneine to Albany Engine Co. No. I. Henry Suesens, foreman of that Company, responded In a speech full . of feeling. The engine was then taken to No. i s house and placed on the side ot tne engine floor un.il certain fixtures are oo tained for operating It. Three hearty cheers were given for the engine and three for the Mayor and Common Council. Al bany may congratulate itself on having the best fire department of any city on the Coast of its size. Called. The Democrat office ac knowledges a call from Mr. McGuire, the Silings man. Mr. M. is a nice looking man; but he has been in most awfully small business when connected with such a sheet, as he undoubtedly was. lie c'aims that he sold out on Frida) ;but the fact Is he did not until Monday, and it makes no difference anyway. The man who will run such a dirty sheet is as bad as the cor respondents who help to pollute its pages, whether he does the writing himself or not, Mr. McGuire may be a prominent man In East Portland; but the estimation in which he is held in Albany Is so small that it would take a microscope of enormous powers to see it. Their Friend. The Oregon Pacific railroad Is the people's friend. Before this line was completed from Corvallis toYa quina Buy wheat brought the farmer of Yamhill county about five cents per bushel more than was realized by his brother in Benton county. Now in consequence of the competition wheat sells for more all over the Willamette Valley than before this road was built, and the farmer of Ben ton county receives from two to four cents per bushel more than is paid in other coun ties. Lafayette Register. Except Linn county. The market In the two counties is now the same. An Argument. "You never would catch a brewer doing such a contemptible thing as to run a blackmailing sheet," ald a gentleman to a Democrat man, "but here Is this East Portland man, who runs the water works there who is at the head of the worst one in the Northwest." The Democrat man went off amid confusion at the awful ponderosity of the reasoning of his friend. A Little Strike. "A number of the freighting teamsters above Don Smith's on O. P. railroad grading have struck because the price has been reduced from 40 to 35 cents per 100 pounds; and they are forbid den to pats through Queener's land to the depot except when he Is on hand to un lock the gate. It Is likely things will be arranged by telegraph from headquart eis. Salem Journal. Paradise. If there is any region In the world which ought to boast of a hardy .self reliant, thoroughly manly and independent race of citizens, it is the State of Oregon, says a correspondent of an Astoria paper, which proceeds to show that Clatsop and Tillamook counties are the paradise of the Pacific Coast. You forgot about Linn county. A Skip. Yesterday we stated that hops were both 19 and 22 cents at Seattle. We wrote the 19 cent Item in the morning and the 22 cent item in the eyening, neglecting to take out the former. That is Seattle. Everything is a jump and a skip and a hop. Here hops are worth about 16 cents. AN Albany 110RSR. in the 2:40 race yesterday in Portland Dick Flahertv, of this city, won in three sir., neats, in W4 ! a:3oand3:jt. This horse Is own ed by Mrs. Charles Barnes, and is develop ing fast speed. It has a blight future in prospect. Spectators. Arrangements have been made for the accommodation of spectators at "F" Co's ball, Friday evening, Sept. 14. An admission fee of 50 cents will be charg. cd for all who attend as spectators. Boots and Shoes Call at A. B. Mc 1 1 wain's and see the ladies' kid and pebble goat shoe, for $1.50, former price $1.50 A Democrat man has seen the shoe and can pronounce it a remarkably cheap shoe for the former price. "Olivette." Opera House, Saturday evening, Sept. 15th. The Hudson-Eckert Juvenile Opera Company. McGuike Constable Cal G. Burkhart arrived in Albany last night with II. P. McGuire, whom he arrested in the after noon on the charge of criminal libel In publishing a certain article in the Sitings about Mr. Chas. Casey, of this city. He put up $250 cash bail and was released from custody. This morning at 8:30 the prisoner appeared before Justice Hum phrey, when the case was adjourned until Thursday of next week at I o'clock P. M. It seems that there is no name at the head of the paper, it is sort of an institu tion without any head Most anybody would he ashamed to nave any connetion with such a rotten concern, and so It has been difficult to find the respon sible man. There is little doubt that Mr. vtcGuire was the man. It is now under stood, though, that he sold out on Monday of this week All the people of Albany wish is to astertain the name of the cor respondent. A great many are satisfied in their own minds in the matter, and it might be a good thing to rid one or two on a rail or kick them out of the city on general principle ; but it Is another thing to prove a thing. The slanderer is the great est enemy society has, and it is time the contemptible iiste, whoever he is, who writes for this particular paper, was hound ed out of the city. Cable. Where a man reads his own writings now-a-days it Is customary for wise critics to compare him to Charles Dickens, and some have resorted to this little trick of the trade in speaking of Geo. W. Cable. We never heard Dickens; but have Geo. W. Cable. Mr. Cable is quite a delightful little fellow, forty-four years of age, and recited and narrated from his novel, "Dr. Sevier," last evening to an audience of about one hundred and twen ty-five. He has a French accent and an expression of his own. For an hour and a half he kept his audience In splendid humor by his story ot Dr. Sevier, or rather about some of the characters in that novel. It was a well spent evening, and while the audience was only a fraction as large as it would have been to some barn storiners, it was made up of good material and was an appreciative one. Mr. Cable is more than worth hearing. Right here; if Albany people wish to hear the distinquished men of the world who shall come through this city while making their circuit they will have to turn out. The privilege is a great one, and we should do something to have it. Mr. (.-able goes to Albany, aalem and Eugene in the state on his trip from Portland to ban f ranclsco, and it was a favor for him to slop off here. We are liable to be left out if we do not turn out better. Probably Just Fate. A most singular coincidence occurred yesterday says the Pendleton E. O. resulting in the fatal sick ness of two horsej. The animals belonged to Jack Powers, who, with others, was making preparations to depart for the Greenhorn mountains. A mule also had been procured, arhich was grazing in a pas ture near the Farmers' Custom mill. Low Tlitard, one of the party, mounted one of Jack Powers' horses to go down and cap ture his muteship. On arriving at the pas ture the animal he was riding fell suddenly to the ground, sick and unable to move, i'illard at once proceeded back to town with the news, and the other horse was mounted and ridden down the river to wheie its sick comrade lay. On arriving at the spot, it also fell sick in its track;. What could have caused the peculiar illness of the two horses, which were in a healthy condition before, on the same spot, is some thing very, very strange. Both animals will probably die. A Case. On complaint of Mr George Cochrane, of Tangent.a warrant was issued to-day in this city for the arrest of Ernest Case.charged with assault and battery. Mr Case had rented a place of Mr Cochrane, and out of it the trouble arose which re sulted In Case assaulting Mr Cochrane and bruising his face in a very serious manner. Constable Westfalt left to arrest the de fendant and the trial will be set for some time to-morrow, when the Democrat will inquire more fully into the particulars of the case and see whether it is as someone asserts a hard case or not. Another Treat. Robert Nourse, of Washington, D. C, whom the best author ities say is the greatest orator In the U. S. to-day, being even ahead of Tallmadge, wilt lecture in Albany on Friday evening) Sept. 28. It is a privilege for Albany to have such noted men visit usand we should attend in a body. He will be here under the auspices of the W. C. T. U. His lect ures are "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," "John and Jonathan," and "Kings and Presi dents." E. G. Northrup, the manager, was in the city making arrangements for his coming. 200 Pounds a Day. A Lebanon cor respondent of a Salem paper says: "Not far from Lebanon, W. R. Cheadle has a splendid dairy, of over fifty blooded cowst from the cream of which he makes 2oolbs. of cheese dally. He has 400 acres of pas ture and 100 of arable land .... Some thirty miles up the Santiam good bituminous coal has been discovered in lnrge quanti ties, and it is hoped thac the railroad from Albany to Lebanon will be extended far enough to justify the development of the mines. Lots of Tiikm. "T. Shattuck, the incl Ion king, of Josephine county, has shipped 25 car-loads of watermelons to date, and will doubtless ship as many more before the season ends.. They go to every part of the Willamette valley where they find an immense sale. Mr Shattuck will use up his surplus, if any, In making syrup. A few more such men of enterprise and push Is what the country needs." Grart's Pass Courier. HOME AND ABROAD. Militiry ha'l to-night. Heap big Indian iu the city to-day, S'x "haves or d illar at L.

His trotting is said to have been equal to 2:25 on a California track, and this was his second race. He will bo taken to Salem to-morrow. Highly Colored. The Leader, of Cor-1 vallls gives the following highly colored account of the arrest of the two Benton county young men charged with robbing Mr. Baldwin, of Peoria. Who the officers were we do not know, nor do we know any thing about the truth of the following and suspect it is greatly overdrawn : "A few days ago two young men from Willamette Precinct were at Peoria in Linn county In company with an old gentleman who got too much liquor to know much of what he was about. The next day he swore out a warrant in the Justices Court of Shedd Precinct, on a charge against the two young men, of larceny of, his money. The con stable and his deputy armed themselves with revolvers and came over to make the arrest. One of theyoung men was in bed asleep when they arrived late at night. When he was awakened he was looking into the muzzles of two revolvers. Of course he made no resistance, and one of the officers bade the other one hold his pis tol an the young man while he himseli read the warrant. Thcv waited for the other young man to conic, which he pres ently did in company with his wife. The two valiant officers ordered him to throw up his hands, and he did so while they went through his pockets, taking everything even down to a tooth-pick. The young iiycu iiuu meir inai and weie discharged, there being no evidence against them. The Shedd officers have the important lesson to learn that an officer has no more right than i"iTatGLiiicnio araw a revolver man unnecessarily." Carpets. Cheaper than you can buy them in Port land.

Still the query Is, why don't we get as much for our wheat as at Monroe, Halsey or Junction f They lead us in price con tinually. Are the freights so high or is there a "trust" or combine arrangement ? Miss Kate Ulery is down from Eugene on a visit to her friends, W W Briggs and family.
