LOCAL RECOKD. Bad Portland. For the sake of a few paltry dollars Portland has scattered broad cast the seeds of smallpox throughout the west. The Schwab family stopped a few days in that city, came here and settled down to live, when all unwarned a nine year old daughter was taken down with the disease. The other members of the family were at once vacdntcd, dui u seems , with no success. Yesterday the two i r.th'. nlH h.ihv broke out with smallpox and the two boys, aged two and five years , are to day showing symptoms of hiving contracted the disease. Jurnal. On tho Gas Works. Albany, Nov. 37th, 188S. Editors Democrat : lam a stranger in your city an J have been looking around for the last five months for a place to invest in city prop erty, and must confess that I think this place if proper Inducements are held out by it would make a large thriving town. Let the City Council hold out inducements to bring the gas works, for Investment of money makes employment for laborers, (just what Albany needs,) and to refuse to make the grant would be an injury to the city and many of its citizens. It may be the beginning of a water company that will furnish power and machinery for elevators In business houses and other improvements. A move in the right direction by your City Council will be the making of Albany. OTRANGER. Prohibition Convention. Without previous announcement the regular prohi bition city conyentlon was held at the re corder's office last evening, the attendance being small. The followine ticket was put in the field: For marshal1, I F Hadley; for treasurer. I! Fhndt. ror councilmen First ward, E A McAllister; Second ward. I F Hail; Third ward, W E Kelley Mr B F Parsons was made chairman of the central committee. Horrid Hobos. Tramps who meet you on the corner and with a face two miles long ask for two bits and then call you bad names because you refuse to buy their whiskey for them. Young men who pre fer spending their time playing cards to the honest use of their biceps. Tin horn gamblers who win more by stealing than by throwing down four aces. Men who live on other peoples' money. These may be a stretching of the word hobo; but we think a hobo's shoe would tit. Our Widows. The only reason given for keeping the cows on the streets of the city is that it helps the widows and or phans, Now we lovs the widows and phans as much as any one and like to stand in with them ; but we do not believe this Crook County Last week Francois LeBlanc, a sheep herder, shot FInley Mc Rea, another herder, near Bayvllle, on the John Day. LeBlanc has been arrested and lodged in jail to await the result of Mc Rea's wounds Married At tne resi of the bride's parents, Mr and Mrs W II Anderson, on Tuesday, November 29th Justice Liggett officiating, Mr J II Kelley' county assessor ot urook county, to Miss ui-iuc miucrson . . . .

Kcview. A Man and Whiskey, Jack Green, who was placed in the county jail severs weeks ago for stealing some carpenter tools at the Murray house, was discharged thli morning. He collected $1.70 witness feesi and in a short time was beastly drunk. Tiie last seen of him he was trying to get out of the city taking the whole street and mumbling to himself, as he repeatedly fell in the mud : I'm having a hard fight fliic) ; whiskey is trying to down me(hic)and I'm trying to down whiskey." Whiskey was on top as tney went out ot sight. Brakeman Killed. Last evening brakeman, named Leathers, on the freight train fell between the cars at Harrisburgi and was kill probably instantly. No one saw the accident. He was missed and go ing back for him his body was found near that city. Leathers' parents reside in East fortland. That Bio Debate. The big debate at Silyerton between Braden and Underwood goes on and so does the world. Sabbath Underwood wanted to csntinue the debate , w.i , ..... but Br,denin,Uted that that d w4 not argument is given for their benefit alone. nciuded , the Brraneement and auite a . quarrel, ensued. The affair will close where else, and they are not allowed to make a pasture of the streets, and do not want to. We believe if the widows were to vote on the subject it would be against the cows. Republican Convention. The Re publican City Convention will be held at the Court House, Friday evening, at 7:30 o'clock, to nominate a candidate for Mar shal and Treasurer. Ward meetings will be held Wednesday evening as follows : First ward in the Circuit Court room at Court House. Second ward In the County Court room. Third ward at the office of the Farmer's Warehouse. Cannot Understand. The first of the season Corvallis was in the lead in the wheat market; but Albany soon caught up Then Salem was far behind. The O. P. boats started, and now that city leads us one cent, which we cannot understand, as considerable of the wheat comes this way. A Bio Gambler Sullivan,the Chinese gambler, now in the city, has a gambling house in Seattle, which he says costs him $6,000 a year to run. During the last year he claims to have made $15,000. At pres ent he is relieving the Albany Celestials of their loose change, A Contrast, Salem papers are en titled to great credit to the manner In which they have kept their readers posted about the small pox in that county. Their manly course is in strong contrast to that taken at first by the Portland papers. Killing Bears. They are having a great time on Soap Creek killing bears. Recently several men killed two and last Thusday another was dispatched. Several other bears have been scented and a big hunt is anticipated.

At Cove, Union county, Saturday, Nov 17, a Mrt Reynolds, who was perhaps the largest woman on the Pacific coast, died. Her weight was 450 pounds. It required for her interment a coffin seven feet long, three feet high an four feet wide.
