Salem now wants the Agricultural College, and a paper there says It can have It legally. 1 there Is a law providing that State buildings shall all be erected In Salem it is nn unjust one. Everywhere eUe in the United States the buildings are scattered, as they should be all over the State.the Capital at one place, penitentiary at another, asylum ut another, etc., but our near sighted and narrow mind ed legislators have centered everything at the Capital. In reference to the Agricul tural College now at Corvallls, read the following from the Journal : "As the mat ter now stands no additional improvements or appropriations will be made by the State for the support or maintenance, of their institution. From all parts of the State petitions are pouring in praying that no more money be expended upon this College and farm, the title to which is clouded. Ringing resolutions embodying the same prayer arc being passed by the several farm ers' organizations and granges through out the State. By the laws of the State of Oregon the State buildings and institutions shall all be located at the Capital. As Ore gon must have an Agricultural College within her borders an effort is being made to secure the removal of this experiment station to Salem, where it rightfully be longs. The matter of the establishment of this College here is being agitated by the Salem grange which will be abl seconded by many of the granges and a majority of trie citizens tnrougnout itie state.' Needs Him Badly. There Is no question that of all places In Oregon Moody needs to go to As'oria most, and after reading the following from a paper pub lished in that city, the editor of which is the worst In the whole gang, we gladly give him up for the sake of the Salmon city. We admit that Albany is a respectable place when compared to that morally pu trid place. Here is the authority: "It Is very evident that a large majority of the people of Astoria take nn stock in lectures- There have been several lecturers of prom inence in Astoria the past year. An audi ence of one hundred is the largest ever known. Sullivan, the brutal prize lighter and booze annihi.ater, had an audience of eight hundred. A prize fight down in 1 aradise Lost, v ill drawn a crowd of five hundred people. A minstrel show, a dog show or a circus will draw crowds ranging iroin live Hundred to one thousand. A lecture will draw seventv-five to one hun dred. This shows the taste of Astoria peo ple. A large number of the older resi dents never attend cither, because It Is liable to cost them a dollar. They never go to church, because the contribution box is passed. They stay at home and kick themselves because they can't own the earth." MR. Kay. Thos. Kay, who recently tired from the Brownsville woolen mills has been in the city to day, coming up from Salem this noon. A woolen mill meeting was held there last evening and according to the account Mr. Kay and his associates will put $50,000 into the enter prise In consideration of a subsidy to de pendon the water power grant. Mr. Kay wants to start a mill on a big scale, and, be sides Salem, has in view propositions from Albany and two or three other places. As Albany has done all it can in the matter in view of several circumstances, all we can do is to wait for the band to play, or else turn something up that will Induce Mr. K to come here. A Devoted Husband. William Harris, the husband of the young woman who was brought here to the Insane asylum last week, having been rendered Insane by an idiot who told her that Mr. Harris had been accidentally killed in the Chinese shooting affray of the 2nd inst. in Portland, is said to have become an invalid himself since that unfortunate occurrence. He has disposed of the small business and property interests he owned In t'ortland, and will move to this city to secure employment, so as to be near his wife and make her as comfortable as her affliction will admit. Salem Stairs man. The people of Oregon generally would like 10 take a hand in iiivinir the idiot referred to not less than one thousand South Carolina lashes. Never Kick. Near Edgbaston, Eng land, is a pasture where a horse and goat grazed. Some rude boys amuzed them selves by throwing stones at the goat and beating it, and were having a fine time when the horse cantered up, kicked, struck and bit at the boys, and grabbing one young ruffian by the coat collar yanked mm clean over the hedge. People who Duy their groceries ol Conn Bros, never kick, and they have a very hne selection of nonuay goods, wmcn should De seen. Free Tobacco Seed. U. S. Senator Dolph has received from the department of agriculture his quota of tobacco seed for distribution, which is 300 papers. Farmers who wish to experiment with tobacco rals. tng can secure a package of this seed, free ot charge, by addressing Hon J N Dolph, in a a, Washington, u Moody Will Come. Mr. Jacks, travel' ling secretary of the Y. M. C. A, passed through the city this noon, and informed Prof. Lee, who met him at the train, that arrangements had been completed by which Rev. Moody would absolutly be In Al bany on the 2d and 3d of January and hold services fcr the benefit of the college stud ents of the state. Under this arrange ment entertainment will have to be furn ished for probably one hundred students. We are glad to report this program, and consider Albany fortunate in obtaining Rev. Moody if for only two days. Board of TrAde. Even the fear of a $5 assessment did not obtain a meeting for the board of trade last evening, only three members reporting as present. Evident ly the members think there is nothing to be done in Albany, and that we had better do like Micawber, wait for something to turn up. That isn't the way Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane Falls have been doing. Taste for Art. A good, live Interest In the study of art, will benefit a city, and we hope to have one cultivated in Albany. Money spent in this direction Is not thrown away. Young people had much better spend their time in painting or drawing than in frittering It away In nothing. In this connection we understand that Mr. William Wright, with Dr. GuIbs & Son, will soon organize a class in painting. The Y. B.
