ALBANY.
M K Yoakim, the site selecter, lett
n the California express lust night for
Alameda. To the Democrat man he
expressed his appreciation of the courte
ous treatment here. He had an easy
time in this city, with which he was
well impressed, and liked the business
men of the town. Albany was the
seventh city visited by hitn and he has
about eight others, fifteen in all to go
to before reaching Washington, which
he thought would be in about a month,
Albany people may expect to know the
site -selected about the first of Novemb
er. He does not make his report until
he gets bk to the capital city. He
saw as many busineas people as possible,
and in order to draw them out, talked
freely about the different sites, but it is
doubtful if any one knows what it is,
though one might possibly do some
pretty dose guessing.
At the present time there are fifteen
men out from the treasury department
selecting sites ordered by the last con
gress, covering the country. Mr. Yoa
ktrci has been in the department eight

THE MILK
CONDENSER
Warmly Endorsed by the Com
mercial Club.
At the meeting of the Albany Com
mercial Club the report of the commit
tee on the milk condenser, Messrs. D.
O. Woodworth. E. W. Lanedon. M. H.
Ellis, J. P. Wallace and H. H. Hewitt
was made and the report adopted. It
was as follows:
We find ubon investigation thnt thp
facts set forth in a prospectus issued
bv Messrs. J. A. Howard and C W.
Tebault fully explains and covers the
proposition.
We also find that a condensed milk
plant is warranted in Albany, and
worthy of support by our citiens; that
the promotion fee of 8 per cent, or
$4,000, of the capital stock of the pro
posed o.-ganization is not excessive,
nor more than will be fully earned, for
labor and expense to thoroughly execute
the project. That as evidence of faith,
the members of the Commercial Club
have already subscribtd $5,000 to the
capital stock.
Ihat: when the stock has hppn unffip-
iently subscribed to insure sucess, the
subscribers are to elect whom thpv
deem proper as directors and officers of
the association, who will have nnwnr

rectors te select grounds, purchase ma- cheese. Alex Raven, Salem received

News from Albany's Six
Trains.
Earlv
Charles Duncan Monteith anil Han-v
P. Merrill left for the east, the former
for Cornell University at Ithaca, N. Y.,
the latter for Rush Medical College,
Chicago University. An interesting
fact in connection with the trip is that
their grandparents in 1847 first came
across the plains to Oregon in the same
ox train.
! Another large crowd went to the fair,
but not like the crowds of Wednesday
and Thursday. This morning only
about 150 tickets were sold. A crowd
came over from Corvallis, as it is O. A.
C. day, and remained in their cars,
which were transferred.
Superintendent Fields did a neat thing
yesterday when the big crowd went
down. The train being short of room
he threw open his private car and it
was soon filled, those in it haviiiir the
privilege of riding in one of the finest
coaches in the country.
Bob Johnson, one of Corvallis' old
time newspaper men, postmaster, etc,
was among the Corvallis crowd on the
way to Salem. Bob is getting pretty
well along towards a hundred, but be
cause he has managed to keep his hair
colored was boasting about how much'
younger he looked then the Democrat
man. Twenty five years ago he was
one of the fastest sprinters in the val
ley and jumps around as if he could go
some yet.
I Mr. and Mrs. M. S. Woodcock, who
had been in Portland attending the fun
eral of M u-garet Lyle, returned home.
Robert Shaw nnd B. G. McCloud, two
Curtis Lumber celebrities, went up to
t Mill City.
A Hors: Hair Item
A manager of a Looster's club can
certainly got plenty to do, not only in
boosting, but in other things. Mr.
Dasent is facing an interesting propo
sition, that from an inmate of the peni
tentiary at Deer Lodge, Mon.. asking
him to sell a horse hair bridle for $25 or
a crazv nuilt for S7fi. nt nt lojot o lnnAn
little horse hair necklaces ot 60 cents '
each, inclosed being a sample, a very '
pietty neatly made affair. The man
states that he made the proposition to
many others, but has not even received
an answer. The hand writing is beauti
ful, showing culture. Of course he
asserts his innocence of the crime of
manslaughter, which sent him there for
twelve years. Such cas-js may sxcite
one's sympathy, but commercial clubs
cannot mix up in such things.

Fruit Inspector Roberts, chairman of
the apple fair committee, carries arour.H

Not in Albany's Class.
The Oregonian gives the picture of
Herbert S. Slocum, a Douglas county
boy, who killed three deer, but it took
him two months in which to do it. Al
bany has a fourteen year old boy
Marshall Woodworth, who this summer,
within twenty minutes, up on the Mc
Kenzie shot thre deer, and he cer
tainly is entitled lo a bigger picture
than young Slocum.
