The Mail Robber. B. F, Watklns ,the
ex-railway mail clerk recently convicted
in the United States Court for stealing; a
registered package containing I380 In gold
and greenbacks, mailed at Scio, Linn Co.,
or Portland, Is the latest arrival at the
ti .I--.. 'y.rian.
As Offer. We notice our Albany
photographers, Crawford & Littler, are ad
vertising cabinet portraits at $4.00 a dozen.
That.ls cheap, but we will give this enter
prising firni $4 for a single portrait of Har
rison's cabinet. , That's a cabinet portrait
we'll wager they can't take even bv flash
light.
A Fact It costs as little Jo live in Al
bany as in any place anywhere, and the
figures looking astonishing when com
pared to those of the Sound cities; yet no
where is life more enjoyable, nor business
more uniformly good. It doesn't take
spasmodic booms to make a city a good one
to reside in. '
Still Holds the Fort. Col. Lee con
tinues to hold the fort at the Indian school
and probably will until a change of admin
istration. Those in a position to know say
the children there obtain good treatment
nothwithstanding the contrary assertions
by a Salem paper that displays great vin
dictiveness in its attacks on the Col.

matter can be mixed up and changed from
a potato into a red pepper we publish the
following from the SilvertonfjW: , Tne1

Thosb Celestials. Yesterday morn
ing In taking a walk for hit health a Dem
ocrat man happened near the Oregon
Pacific depot just as the afflicted San Fran
cisco Celestials were eating their morning
repast. It was not a very wholesome sight,
squatted In little knots along the tide of
the track they were taking their turns at
potatoes and rice served red hot from the
kettle. These articles had been raised the
day previous by a subscription from our
citizens collected by Chinamen. Many of
the Celestials were barefooted, so Jar as
stockings were concerned, and they had
s'.ept on scarce blankets under the depot
almost in the open air, and did not seem,
to mind it much, such is the remarkably
fine winter weather, we have been enjoying.
We imagined them, eating ,beside a rail,
road traeic In the east and the mere thought
made us shiver. The sooner we get rid of
these Celestials the better for us. Their
own countrymen here are the ones vt ho
should feed them ; but they seem inclined,
to shr,k it on the city,, hence something
should be done expeditiously and to the
point. ! , . 1 , . .. .,( , .

will not call them names for . .fabricating
about Yaquina Bay, which we also want
to help build Into, good harbor. ..When
we mentioned tne wrecks at, the mouth ot
the Columbia It was' simply retaliating for
their everlastingly throwing cold water on
Yaquina Bay. If they are certain it can't
be a big harbor what is the use of attacking
it repeatedly.
A Possibility, Among the possibili
ties, if not probabilities, in Albany, Is a
large brick hotel at the southwest corner
of Lyon and Second streets. An eastern
gentleman, representing a large company
has just been in the city, investigating the
matter, and was very favorably impressed
with this city as a location for such a
structure, which, if built will be as large,
if not larger, than the Chemekete at Hal
em. We mention the factmordcrtoshow
that this city is attracting attention from
outside capital, and to inform our business
men that just at this moment Is a good
time to display enterprise generally in the
ma'.ter of building up the city. . The possi
bilities are unbounded. Let us have some
action.

of how far dust is carried is afforded by 'the
fact that when the east wind blows con

R. R. people really want a seaport for their
trans-continental line they can get one, not
on paper, but in realty. The Astorian has
no words of censure for Yaquina Bay ';
facts speak loud enough.. Astoria' is the
point to which they should look, and to
ward which they should build. Their mis
lake was a costly one. They can, even
now, rectify it. Astoria.
A R. R. Meeting. A citizens meeting
has been called for to-night at 7:3oo'clock
at the office of Stewart & Sox to consider
the matter of building a railroad from A
toria eastward to Albany, to connect with
the Oregon Pacific. A move wilt be made
which will make such a railroad an assur

to the students and scholars who read the
