LOCAL RECORD. Mr. and Used to Buy Them. Mack Monteith has been keeping rather quiet of late, in fact, since his exploit with the big salmon at Ilwaco he has done but little hunting or fishing. But on Saturday last, as he was monkeying around the marshes, he came suddenly upon a mud-hole from which the water had receded. The mud was of rath er a tenacious nature and seven small ducks and about twenty snipe had been caught in it and were unable to extricate themselves. Mack waded out to them and after wring ing their necks tied them together and hung them upon a tree. He then hurried back to Ilwaco. burrowed a shotirun and in less than an hour showed the astonished Ilwacoitesa string of seven ducks and twenty snipe. Mack is a mighty Nimrod and great are his exploits.-Astorian Pioneer Ennui. There is very little presidential enthusiasm in Albany this year. Torch light processions here are a thing of the past, the anvil has rusted and the ink kegs are accumulating in the Democrat office ready for a bonfire when there is enough enthusiasm to build one. A band has been picked up for anaddressattheCourt House to-night by a man from somewhere named Fulton, and that is about all. But this Is not Indiana. A Reason. An exchange says that one reason why Washington Territory is build, ing up faster than Oregon Is on account of our miserable assessment system. Here property is assessed at about forty per cent of its value and all manner of indebtedness taken out. There it is assessed at full value and no indebtedness is taken out. As a result the rate of taxation there is about half what it is here. The N. G. A correspondent from Sil- verton to a Salem paper finds great fault with the Oregonian railway company and thinks it should be abated as a nuisance. He says the road is in a dangerously looe condition, ties rotted out, rails twisted and ballast minus. He suggets as a remedy that the citizens call a public meeting and compel the road to come to time or shut up. A Flaw. A gentleman who bought a farm several miles from Albany three or f,. ... hi,. ii.t hnd a claim ore- street, and was ordered to move off within j - , . seiited for a one-ninth interest in the same, well established by the records. He paid . for and thought he was getting A Goou Company. The Santa Cruz Daily Sentinel has the following to 6ay of the Rochester Comedy Company that ap pears In Albany on Saturday evening, Oct. jo: "The audience at the opera house last evening enjoyed a hearty laugh at the play of 'Widow O'Brien.' The company that W. F. Rochester has gathered around him is very clever. James T. Kelley as the 'Widow,' is the principal character, and kept the audience in a constant roar by his natural acting. Will H. Bray, as the stew ard, was capital. He is an author and composer, and sings his ow n songs as none but the composer can render them. Miss I' reddle btockmcyer, as 'Hella inompson,' made a hit. She is constantly improving In her profession. W. F. Rochester played L-apt. Cranberry in the same excellent wav he does everv nart he undertakes. Taken as a whole the company is de serving of credit, and should be greeted with large audiences. Opening Dinner. To-morrow the California restaurant in Strahan's new brick will give Its opening dinner. This new restaurant will be under the manage ment of Mr. M. W. Parker, lately of Cali fornia who is an old and experienced ca terer to the wants of the public injthe eat ing line. Let the patronage of the people of the city be such as to show Mr Parker a hearty welcome to our city. At Scio. The trial of the case of the State against Mr Wright,at Scio yesterday, before Justice Williams, is said to have been an exciting one. The evidence went to show that his assault on Mrs Piatt and her daughter was in self-defense, and he was discharge.). He did not kill the Piatt steer but simply shot It with small snot. Piatt appeared for the prosecution Judge Whitney for the defense. A Black Eye. While fooling around the press room of the Democrat office yesterday he became too impudent, and the first thing he knew our Satanic mages ty had given him a black eye, which he continues to wear. He will probably not hippopotamus with the buzz saw after this. The fellow was Wallace & Thompson's fat boy, which may be seen on our first page. For first-class groceries and lots of them callon that live firm. Public Speaking.
