Entered at the Post Oiti at Albany, ir &m saooari-cltvis mail matter. LOCAL HECOllD. Hon. W. K. P. In its pun pictures the Salem Journal gives the following sketch of a former Albany gentleman: 'Slr. Price is another one of Oregon's native representatives. He was born at Albany, Linn county in 1850. He passed hi youth at Albany and received his education there. After arriving at the age of maturity he went to Crook county, where he was en gaged extensively in stock raising fnr ten years. Four years ago he went to Jack son county, and again continued stock raising, at which occupation he has suc ceeded In accumulating a neat and com fortable fortune. In 1S72 he was marrird at Albany to Miss Pauline Hackleman, and their home i now made happy by two boys, fhe oldest is now attending school at Jacksonville. Mr. Price's father was one of the first se'tlers and founders of Albany. Mr. Price is serving his term as a democratic representative from Jack son county." Crook County. L N Liggett will be gin a six weeks term of school at Bavn ton's place next week.... We understand that J M Biakely contemplates driving his cattle back to this county from Wallowa next summer. ...Billy Stroud had atria before Justice J L Luckey on Thursday for stealing a butcher knife from Ah Doong, but was discharged. ... Win M irks, a voung man working for J II Miller, met with quite a severe accident last Monday. He was riding after caul when his horse fell, breaking Mr. Marks', left leg in two places between the knee and ankle. ...We are authorized to announce that a boxing contest, Queensbury rules, will take place at Glaze's hall on the evening of February 9, 1889. The contestants will be Jimmy Woods and Harry Hunter. The content will be for $150 a side and the champion ship of Crook county. Review. Notihnu Left. A correspondent to the Ochoco Review says : "Our dailies glean the local news so close that it is hard to find anything outside of general interest to communicate you," and then sends a column and a half of well written matter, mostly on the O. P. The following is to point : "Next season the O. P. will reach Squaw creek, then you can ship to the Willamette and sound markets fat cattle and mutton, late and early, at good prices, without the fear of a gorged imrket. So with large draft horses which just now are in demand at $300 to $400 per span." A Kick. The Democrat is requested to make a good sized kick because Mrs "Jim Westfall" is allowed to attend the public schools. She is twenty-three years of age, and several reasons, not necessary nor proper to mention here, are given why she should be kept out of the school, other wise than because she is a Chinawoman. There are some who say they will take their children out of school if this is not done. Will the proper authotities consid er the matter. OUR SALEM LETTER. Salem, Jan. 38th, 1889. Editors Democrat : The Legislature opens its adjournment very quietly. It is a sad outlook for the Third House. But two remain who have tread the floor for twenty years. They made their bi-ennlal circuit last week with the same regularity as when they wero in better pay. The telegraph notified the country that Gen. Siglin would return and assume the Presidency of the Third House and while it Is as respectable as any other and in favor of retrenchment and reform, In its own charges it Is doubtful whether it can work up grit enough to make their oat meal mush. One thing must be done, and that is to make the Third House the cleric al force of all the Houses or abolish it with honors. It needs a Chaplain as well as a President. Senator Dawson's bill to amend the law creating Railroad Commissions made its appearance in a printed form to day. It asks for three Commissioners, not more than two of whom shall belong to the same political party ; must be electors and havo three years residence in the State. ' They shall be chosen bi-ennially by the Legisla ture, and hold office for two years, or until their successors are elected and qualified vacancies to Be filled by the Governor. Salary for Commissioners $2500, and $2000 for Clerk per annum. Repeats the section of the law making the Governor a member of the Board-for the purpose of deciding points not agreed upon by the Commission proper. But this amendment does not meet the objections made by the Governor in his message. This amendment will open up a discussion that will test or should the constitutionality of this Commission acting under powers delegated that are claimed none can possess except the Leg islature and the judiciary. As to the action of the Governor, if the bill passes we can only infer. A memorial passed asking the United States to purchase the locks at Oregon City and in case of failure that they be con demned. It is somewhat strange that no one has yec explained the school-book business. There will be a report made no doubt. It is a monopoly and one monopoly is a little ahead 01 the other. The report will be looked for with hope that it may inform the people how this matter stands. Why can't Oregon publish her own school books. It would be little expanse at the start. Why could she not procuie htr plates of California, and by degrees work out the problem and have the work dona by her State printer. If California can print her own books, Oregon can do the.- same. There is a great interest taken in this busi ness by friends of our State at home and abroad. May refer tothis matter again, No doubt now that bills are getting ripe speeches will follow and much of interest to the general reader will follow, we shall see. Sojourner. ON THE SOUTH BKN BOUNDARY. Is He Insane. We have men much like the following outside of the insane saylum, substituting wild game for men : "John Miller is an old German who resid ed in Portland and recently became insane. Saturday he was brought here and placed in the asylum. He Imagines that he killed 3000 men with nine pistol shots and that he is followed by the spirits of the men he killed." Too Many Cities. A large number of bills have been introduced in the state leg islature providing for the incorporation of a few houses into cities of divers names. What Oregon needs now is a law prohibit ing the Incorporation of a place into a city until it has a population of at least 2000. This making every little collection of huts a city is very foolish business. Offer to Build One. O'Conner Sc Barr, of this city, offer to build a street rail way in this city and operate it for a bonus of $1500 and a twenty-Bye year franchise. Both should be granted at once. They would run it from the Magnolia mills to the depot and extend it as the business justifies. No need to ask for finer weather than we are having now. Stock and grain are doing as well as one could wish for. Miss Mary Ward has returned home from a lengthy visit to her sister in l'ort- 1 land. The Misses Vondran, of Albany, have been spending a few weeks with their mother and brother. O P Coshow, Jr, of Brownsville, was In this vicinity last Friday, the guest of Mr. Dinwiddle. E J Willoughby paid Albany a short visit one day last week. The sick persons in the neighborhood are to numerous to mention. No serious cases to report through. Mr. and Miss Ward, of Halsey, are visit ing at Mr. Bram wells. A number of horses have been sold In this vicinity in the last few weeks. There is quite a stir in the market for cattle, sheep and hogs, especially cattle, three separate lots having been taken to Eugene, besides local changes. Mr. and Mrs. E J Willoughby enter tained a few of their friends one evening last week, cards being theorderof the even ing, and this week Mr. and Mrs. John Long entertained the same set with cards and dancing. Both affairs were said to be very enjoyable. Frank Taylor was treated to a genuine surprise party on Thursday evening of this week. Every one present seemed well pleased and dancing was indulged in un til a late hour. With an Ax. Yesterday afternoon Wm Buchner, of Miller's Station, while chopping wood, cut one of his feet serious ly with his ax. He was brought to this city on the 8 o clock train and Dr. Hill dressed the wound. Carpets. Finest lin of e carpets ever brought to Albany just received nt A. B. Mcllwa'.n's. His Brussells and velvet llruxsells attract great attention, being su perb patterns. New Comers To our city will find it to their advantage to priee our gcods before buying in their outfit of grooeriea and pro visions. Brownell k Stanard. SQUARE Shake. It does one good to see two friends meet and have a hearty shake. The two gents that met yesterday on First street, shook so long that a bystander asked them what was up. They replied that they were congratulating each other on having found the cheapest place to buy groceries at the Willamette Packing Cos store.
