THE ALBANY APPLE FAIR.
By W. S. Gordon.
What is all this fuss about?
Trains all loaded in and out, '
Blushing fruit and blushing maid
Sauces, jellies, marmalade
Pies and dumplings scent the air
Why it's Albany's Apple Fair!
"Pyrus mains King shall be,"
Shout the Profs, from O. A. C.,
'Till every apple gels in style
With the famous Billikcn smile.
Balmy Indian summer air
All aboard for the Apple Fair!
See the beauties, old and new
Starks and Spitzens, Baldwins too
Yellow Xcwtowns, Kings and Spies,
Gloria Muudis Jumbo size!
Your aunts and uncles will be there,
So don't you miss that Apple Fair!
Sturdy slock from every clan
From Halifax to llindostan
All reach perfection in Die sun
Among the hills of -Oregon
So toss lhat headgear in the air
And shout hurrah for the Apple Fair

ihe Journal shows that in Portland
the people arc receiving several bil
lion germs cr quart more than is
healthful in their milk. Out of this
agitation for pure milk will come
some lasting benefits to several milk
inspectors, anyhow. So far, Dairy
and Food Commissioner Bailey has
not found even one million microbes.
The state of Oregon ought to have
the scalp of a microbe for each dol
lar paid him in the last eighth of a
century, just to show the taxpayers
something for his money.
Simon of Portland is the head of
the political machine, and the new
regime in that city is standing in with
any old graft that has the mon. The
cllighls are now moved to help out
friends, and the public improve.
mcnls ordered by the people are held
up, probably to help out more
"friends." If he can get his clutches
on the state with any convention
scheme lie will fatten his hordes of
shoutcrs at the public crib njain.
We need to study public questions
thoroughly in Oregon. We can't lay
all the blame on the legislature, as in
other states. If wc suffer from unjust
taxation, railroad extortion, bank
-wrecking, land speculation, high fuian
ccring or want of sairtation it is our
own lack of unity of spirit, lack of
common sense. Work your think

This imprisoning American citizens
in Texas on the mere suspicion lhat
they don't like Taft smacks too much
of the progress of the Czar of Russia
through his outlaying provinces. The
Declaration of Independence is an in
cendiary document in the Philippines,
a crime to read to any audience or to
print and circulate. It seems to be in
Texas.

'fait in Taconia speaking on the
ship subsidy plainly said lhat like the
tariff it was to benefit a few, to help
them make money, with contributions
from the public till. The shipping
laws of the United States help out the
railroads and drive American capital
to invest in foreign ships.
If a "certain party" were not now in
Africa, spontaneous combustion might
supply a theory for that White House
fire.
Mrs. Besaut says she w;as "twins"
centuries ago. One of her is even too
many now. Glad the tw'ns were be
fore our day.
How will Mr. Taft ever square him
self with the anti -polygainist voters
after that speech to the Mormons?
The "good roads" idea is one that
will have an accelerated growth, be
cause when one town gets good road
it makes an imperative reason right
then why its rival should.
Mountain climbers and explorers
looking for more worlds to conquer

DR. HILL TELLS OF A MEXI-
CAN BULL FIGHT.
F.ditor Democrat: Through your
valuable columns i ask to apologise
It) the many readers of 'the "Old
Standby of Linn county," the Demo
crat, which has been daily dealing
out reliable news to the interested
public for so many years it has be
come a houscnoia part ot tne exist'
ence of the "Hub of the Valley."
What do I ask to apologise for? For
not giving a general writeup of what
I saw while in .Mexico last August.
Since returning I have been up
braided by many for remaining silent
where a few s'rokes of the pen and
the large circulation of the Demo
crat would give information to those
who have not had the chance to take
the trip. I plead guilty and agree to
comply witli the request just as soon
as time and opportunity will permit.
I am asked to tell of the national bull
tights that occur in the large cities of
the republic every Sunday. I agree
to do this at an early date, for 1 saw
many of them during the two trips
taken to Mexico.
The account of the death, in the
ring, of Harper K. Lee, whose name
and fame was in the mouths of every
one in Mexico since last -winter when
lie earned his greatest fame by en-
teriug the ring and killing two vicious
mills that had just killed two men,
has just been received through the
press. I.ec had the name of being
one ot the most daring matadors on
the turf, and his appearance ill the
ring was the signal lor general deal
ening applause.
Last winter a native matador, who
had retired trom the ring, was left,
by the death of his wife, with three
children to support and but little of
the world's goods to keep them with.
He returned to the ring to make one
more light for a large sum of money,
his name was a guarantee that thou
sands would attend the contest for
he had triumphed over many of the
most vicious bulls that Spain or the
plains of Mexico could produce. He
entered the ring again with confidence
of success, but fell short. A bull
picked the man up on his horns and
carried him half way around the big
ring, then tossed him in the air and
is he came down gored him many
times before assistance could be ren-
trfl,i "ot ,W ,,,e ,,BX was
in tiding luiiuiuou. x lie uuu was
the victor in that contest and was
entitled to a rest. Another bull and
another matador were brought in
luu the bull killed Ins man and was
entitled to a respite.
The cry went up for Harper E. Lee
to take the sword. Accordingly the
following Sunday Lee entered the ring

men who are in the rine- with the ms-
tador as his assistants, jumping the '
fence for safely from the moment the
bull entered till the contest was over. ;
When the signal was sounded for
the final killing, Lee, with unerring
thrust of the sword laid low one of
the worst bulls that had ever been in
the ring. The next bull that had come
victorious was brought in and Lee's
fame went to the clouds, with ap
plause from twenty-live thousand
spectators, who, when Lee drove his
sword through bis antagonist rent the
air with clapping bands and acclama
tions of "Viva el Americano." Mon

SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS.
There was general interest through
out Oregon this week in a chase after
some convicts, a regular man hunt.
Desperate men at bay, with men after
them, loaded to the limit, offers a
chase of a character to make people
take notice. Hunting fellow men,
whatever their character, as one
would hunt wild beasts, determined
to shoot at sight, presents a spectacle
for the most bloodthirsty, not a pleas
ant one to consider.
This week a man was formally
placed in the position held by Harri
man, placing him at the head of the
railroad world, about the most im
portant financial -position in the world.
His career will be watched with in
terest, the observer wondering if he
can till the'shocs of the greatest rail
road man in the world.

10 Albany people are just now appre
ciating the fact that pavement is im
j , mensely appreciated during rainy
j weather. It is great to be able to
1 , cross the streets at any point at plac-
; es where formerly there was a mass
of mud. Under the pavement system
the water washes the dirt on it down
into the gutters and thence through
the catch basins into the sewers and
out into the river. One winter of
pavement in the business section will
make our peopje willing to sacrifice
considerable to have pavement in
(rout of their homes.

ment.
Most people think an example is
needed at this time of J. Thorburn
Ross, the Portland banker sentenced
to five years in the' state penitentiary
for violation of the banking law. It
is probably true that others were per
haps more guilty than Ross; but Ross
is the one on whom the criminal man
tle falls and must stand the punish
ment. There ought to be more. Sev
eral others should also v'sit Sa.--m.
A feature about the case of Ross
is that he was a shining light in the
religious world, which ought to stand
for something. A man who gets busi
ness through professions of religion
and then stabs his friends in the back
deserves a double sentence.
