Several Albany automobilists are
driving their machines a good deal
faster than the law allows, cndangeiing
the lives of pedestrians There have
been several close calls. The Democrat
has been told by a man that he was in
a car that went around a corner upon a
business street going, at the rate of 35
miles an hour, as shown ty the indicator.
It is time this kind ot business was
stopped.
This appears in an Albany booBter cir
cular:"Albany haBno saloons. Linn and
Benton counties are dry." That is one
ot the best boosters Albany nas. It is
a good advertisement The people who
have been coming here because Albany
is dry, are the kind we want. Those
who leave because it is dry are the
kind we don't want.
If you have ever eaten corn beef, had
your corns pared, eaten chicken or had
chicken pox, eaten pork or seen a blind
pig, winked at an old maid, or made a
wry face, threw a stone at a cat or
been in any kind of a catastrophe.

Don t let the census talter miss any

limits the city ot Albany will have to
hustle to make a showing in keeping
witn ngures given.
A SUCCESSFUL
MINISTER.
Portland. Anril la T?nv .T W Mo
Dougall, for several years pastor of the
M. E. church of Albanv and for the
past three years in charge of the Mount
Tabor Methodist church in Portland,
has made a record since coming here
that will be especially pleasing to the
members of his old charge at Albany
and to his many friends in thac city.
The dedication of the beautiful new
church building, constructed by Mr.
McDougall at a cost of 16,000, took 1
place on Sunday, April 10, and at that
time the entire church debt was wiped 1
out and $100 J more monev raised than
enough to pay the amount back on the '
new building and its furnishings. It
was a great triumph for Mr. McDoug-.
all and his wife, and is the talk in j
church circles in this city. i
A few nights later when Mr. and Mrs.
McDougall had been invited out to tea.

found a surprise party awaiting them
in the church. Mr. McDougall was
seized upon and taken to the platform
where tho chairman of the board of
trustees, on behalf of the nlHcial board,
presented the pastor with a large and
beautiful silver loving cup, suitably en
graved, showing the appreciation of
the congregation for his efforts toward
giving them the splendid new church
uilding, the erection ot which was
largely due to his untiring efforts and
his ability as u manager. The pastor
was completely taken by surpriso and,
though gp""vally a ready speaker, this
was one r ion when he had nothing
to say. I - I; him several minutes to
collect hiinaclf sufficiently to maku a ;
suitable response to the magnificent
gift.
The congregation, happy in its new
home, spent a most enjoyable evening
in tho sanctuary with Iheir beloved
pastor and his wife and the affair was
made one of the most pleasant in the I
