Mr. Jason Wheeler tells the Democrat an interest ing Incident In connection with his ex periences as sheriff from 18.1,8 to 1850. In the spring of 1849, every county oflicer but himself got the gold fever and went to California. He had incurred an expense of $40 summoning a jury, but never re ceived a cent of it as there was no court to allow it During his term of oflice he only made $1.50 in cash as sheriff, a sum which would not, of course, suit the sheriff of the present day. To Let.- -"That suggestive sign, 'To Let,' Is beginning to appear on several handsome buildings in Pendleton. 'What's the matter with Hunt's railroad for a rem edy?' Echo answers: 'It's all right.' Property owners should ask themselves the above question as they pass by these va cant buildings." E. O. Any town to pros per must put its hands down in its pockets, even if it hurt, and that is the trouble at Pendleton. The wealthy men wont do it. The Muddiest When we get to feel ing dubious about our own muddy streets and a few sick cases around, we should read such items as the following written from Spaknne Falls to an exchange : "This Is the muddiest place in the North west, and very unhealthy ; no less than lour or five being planted every day .though the papers are very quiet about it. The principal disease Is typhoid fever, although there are a number of fatal eases of pneu monia. There is one case of small pox." A Bio House. The play of "Hazel Kirk" was presented at the opera house last evening to an audience of nearly five hundred. It was well rendered and the acting was complimented by nearly all who attended, iney demonstrate that it Is not necessary to charge an enormous fee In order to do good work. To-night "East Lynne." Admission 15, 25 and 35 cents. Settled. Corvallls yesterday is said to have been a diminutive Chicago for awhile. Over three hundred railroad men were there holding meetings, proposing and threatening. The matter was finally settled late In the afternoon by the railroad agreeing to pay the men and the work of cashing time checks was begun and com pleted this mernintr. With their pockets full of money, about $10,000 being paid out, they painted the town red, as It were, the sa loons reaping a big harvest. Men who cried the loudest for their pay by this time have sunk eyery cent of it. What strange mortals men are. The railroad company is entitled to great credit for the manner in wnicn tncy settled the matter. Had it eone unsettled bridtres would per haps have been burned and oronertv een erally destroyed. Held Mr. Lewis Taylor, the railroad man who painted the town red the other evening, was tried before Justice Hum. phrcy this morning on the charge of an as. sault with a dangerous weapon, and after a hard fight held to await the action of the grand jury under 250 bonds. This after noon he was tried on the second charge of assault with a dangerous weapon and held under the same sum to await the action of the grand jury. Mr. Taylor has been run ning a pack tram. He had $127 when ar rested , and we are informed a certificate of deposit for $1300; but this is uncertain. Right here it may be remarked Albany doesn't propose to be painted red, or green or any other color, and it will pay for strangers 10 noia meir peace. Will Move To Ellensburg Mr Oley Woodworth, druggist at G. L. Black man's, has bought the drug store of Dr. Henton at Ellensburg, W. T., and will move to that city to reside in a couple weeks. Mr. Woodworth is an experinced druggist, understanding the business thoroughly, and has a remarkably good opening at Ellensburg. We understand Mr. Al. Long will go with him. A broth er of Mr. Woodworth will succeed him In Mr. Blackmail's store. Spelled Wrong. The name of Mr. Knox, whose marriage was given yester day in the Democrat, should have been Leighton instead of Layton. He was named after Mr. Leighton Blain, of this city, and was by that gentleman hand somelv caned on Christmas. A gold head ed cane and a good wife at one time ought to make any young man happy, and this one and his estimable wife deserve all the happiness to be obtained. The Agricultural College. The Board of Directors of the State Agricul tural College met In Corvallis yesterday. The Board resolved to ask the legislature for an appropriation of $20,000 to purchase nPHPKRnrv huiMinrra ftr In tr rarru j B, , j out the provisions of the Match bill, and $10,000 with which to purchase 200 more I acres 01 land, also to continue the suit with ( the Southern M E Church. Principal Topics. At the present time the Roseburg papers are quarrelling about a poor farm contract, the Pendleton papers are kicking at the lack of enter prise of their citizens, the Salem papers are agitating a woolen mill, the Astoria papers are trying to have commerce stop at their doors, the (oruallis and Albany papers are full of Oregon Pacific matters, and Port land papers of Moody. His Influence Moody was in Astoria one day, will be in Slem one day, and like wise in Albauy ono day, so all this crow ing has amounted to nothinr. Already we notioe a very calm and serene tone in our Portland aril Astoriacontemporaries.and when the great Evangelist, who loyes every body, has passed on to California, we predict such a spirit of fellow love between the cities of Oregon that never again will the hatchet be raised. Didn't Succeed, Mrs. Cheadle in forms the Democrat that while at Shcdd her brother In-law, Mr. Schaeffer made a desperate effort to keep possession of her adopted daughter, Minnie, resulting in an interesting episode. Mrs. Cheadle came ut ahead, as is her custom, and we under stand came very near giving Mr, S. a black eye. Wouldn't Stand It. Last evening In the gallery of the opera house a couple Al bany boy. were teasing a strange boy with a crooked nose, when the stranger sudden lr showed his metal by giving one of the youngsters a good pounding in short meter, and to the satisfaction of the spectators.
