LOCAL RECORD. Mr. Moody. At Salem yesterday all the Presbyterian ministers In conclave and a large crowd greeted Mr. Moody, as he passed through on his way to Victoria, B. C. It is said he may stop oil at Albany and Salem on his way back to San Francis co, the trouble is it is thought there arc not buildings large enough to hold the crowd that would want to hear him. We could attend tc about Soo if necessary. The Jour nal says of his appearance : "It was fear ed that he would be asleep when the train arrived, but that idea was soon dispelled by a very unclerical looking gentleman step ping from the Pullman, bare-headed, and inquiring for a newspaper, lie was in stantly recognized as Mr. Moody. lie is short in stature, very fleshy, somewhat of the build of Judge Strahan. While well preserved, years and work are turning him pretty gray. He Is very cheerful and sociable." An Unusual Stunk. While out on the plateau west of town a few days ago the writer remarked the unusual appearance of the peaks in the Cascade range, several of which were plainly seen from the point of observation. Their appearance is more than an unusual feature, as it is doubtful if anyone living here ever saw them so near ly stripped of their perpetual snow. Espcc ially is this fact noticeable on the north bister, whose eastern and northern sides are free of snow all the way up, exceptin two or three small patches, which have the appearance of small glaciers as viewed at this distance. I'rincville News, Hard for the II. B. M. A farmer in Wallowa county, has succeeded in raising a monster squash, weighing 1S3 pounds, He took it to the town of Joseph for ex hibition, and no sooner had it arrived there than it was made the object of a political bet. If Cleveland is elected a prominent business man of Joseph has agreed to roll the squash to Enterprise, a distance of sev eral miles ; and in case Ilarrisan is elected Charles Allman has agreed to do the same thing.

Journal. , Didn't Want It. The citizens of Tole do arc almost unnanimously opposed to the opening of a saloon In their village. During the County Court last week B. E Gardiner presented a petition and a re quest for a license to sell Intoxicating liquors in that usually quiet hamlet, but a remonstrance signed by nearly every man, woman and child in the neighborhood put a quietus on the scheme.

Editors Democrat : I nm sorry that Iain undcrthe necessity of asking for valuable space in your paper to answer a statement made by Mr. Alvin Long, of your city, and published in yes. tcidays paper in regard to the "Cameron Eoff" race. Mr. Long seems to be deter mined to class me as a "chuck" runner, or at least impress the public that I was an ac cessory to the affair. Now, in the first place he states he knows Mr. Eoff's time to be 10 seconds, this surprised me very much. Why did he not tell me the valuable infor mation, when I asked hi m on the clay of the race in the Russ House, as a friend, as I had always considered him, if he knew Mr. Eoff as being a fast man, his reply was, "well, he is tolerably good." Now he tells us this person is a 10 second man. Who was trying to deceive In this malter ; let your readers judge. As for my getting 15 feet start of Mr. Eoff or Mr. Eoff being ahead of me at 50 yards, Oh, what a "brake" for anyone to make when they want to lose a race, at'least it would seem so to me ;but to parties that are practically in chuck races such matters might appear just right. It appears to me it would have been wise In Mr. Long to have sent his statement to some far away Eastern newspaper, for I fear a great many who witnessed the race, will read this communication and how are they to believe their own eyes. Mr. Long's statement is a puzzle to me. I did not know the aforesaid gentleman held a time watch at the track, he was not one of the parties I meant in my previouscommunica tion ; but I am glad he got my time, but Mr. hoff is certainly a last man, according to all reckoning, lie makes him beat me 40 feet in 100 yardsand then gives me 104 seconds time. ow takeolttlie40 teet (one second and one third) from 10? and you have this gentleman running in a small fraction over 9 seconds, when he runs his race, Try again. E. O. Cameron. To the People of Selo anil Vicinity.
