LOCAL RECORD.;
Searle & Dean Four mitt have re
cent! been brought In the Circuit Court
against Searle Sc Dean, In each case the
firm's railroad plant having been attached.
The plaintiffs are as follows, with the ap
proximate amount of damages asked for :
Fleischner, Meyer & Co., $1,100 j Giant
Powder Co., (7,000 ; I R Dawson, $4,000;
B F Brady & Co,, $4,000. As we do not
know how much Is due the firm from the
railroad nor as to the value of their assets
it cannot be said what condition It will place
time checks and other outside accounts not
secured by attachment. We simply give
the record. Each suit is for material used
in railroad building.
Street Improvements. The Commit
tee on Streets and Public Property and
Street Commissioner have begun cutting
down First Street on the sides so as to form
a rounding surface, one that will make a
natural drainage. Side and crosswalks are
being repaired and matters put in ship
shape generally. It Is proposed to make
the public highways in Albany an orna
ment :o eur city. This can be done in a
marked manner as soon as the cows go and
our citizens can spw grass seed adjoining
their residence property and keep it down
with lawn mowers instead of grinders and
hoofs. Lets us make Albany the prettiest
city in the Northwest.

0 to ouild a bridge across the Willamette
at Saiemr Keveral senate bills were read
first time and house Ml In second time.
A Subsidy Getter. G. W.Hunt seems
to be the boss subsidy getter. He is mak
ing his offers right and left and they are
not particularly modest. Here is one :
"G. V, Hunt met the Dayton people
Saturday. He made them a proposition to
build his road to that place for a subsidy of
$45,000, right-of-way from Waitsburg and
depot grounds. The Dayton people pro
pose to accept the oner, and have com
menced work already." He has already
got immense one) from Walla Walla, Un

purchased the gallery formerly occupied
by Mr. L Y Clark. He is now prepared

thoroughly acquainted with first-class
work. He has come here to make this his

Lost an Eye. A very unfortunate ac
cident happened to Mr. Al Green Monday,
says the Corvallis Timet, which may result
in his total blindness, Mr. Green was en
gaged in grubbing en Mr. Beach's place,
iust across the river from Coivallis.. While
chopping a small twig flew up and struck
him iust under the right eye, inflicted a
gash and it is feared has destroyed the
sight. Mr. Green has been blind in his
other optic for a great many years, which
makes the accident unfortunate in the ex

recently the fact that an Eastern man
grumbled at the number of chattel mort

examined the records and finds that during
1888 there were 230 mortgages filed.aggre
gating in amount about $1 35,000. Wheth

but doubt if it is larger than in counties in
the East of a like population, 'f as large
People have to borrow money everywhere,
and if gotten on personal security it takes
a chattel mortgage In most cases.

Money in Dirt. Speaking of money
made in real estate the following told a
Corvallis paper by Jack Alphine, well
known in Albany, is a little the richest :
"Jack says that he knows of a Chinaman
who has made more money dabbling in
real estate than any other individual in the
country. He was the cook at the tunnel
on the O. P. extension. He made $1,000
a week feeding Jco men at $5 a piece, on
dirt. Jack says he would have stood it
without a .murmur, but the land belonged
to the government."-

A KXAHATH LETTER.
Yainaz, Klamath Co., Or. Ian. 1880.
Editors Democrat 1
If you will allow me space in the col-
mns of your valuable paper, I will give
you a few Items from this part of Oregon
hlcli may be of Interest to some of your
readers, and especially those who are not
acquainted with the plan upon which In
dian Boarding Schools are conducted. A
person who has never visited, or had ex
perience in one of these schools, has not the
least idea as to how they are carried on,
and what a vast amount of good they are
doing for the "Red men of the forest."
There are two schools here on the Res-
rvalion, one located at Klamath Agency,
id the other at this place. The school
but'.diug here is a large and commodious
structure suitably arranged for Its purpose
the school-rooms, boarding-rooms for the
pupils and living-rooms for employers are
all located in this building.
There are at present 84 pupils In atten
dance at this school, The Inclii.'B several
tribes of Indians, among which are Hie
Klamaths, Modocs.Snakes and Pitt Rivers.
We have pupils attending from the age of
years to 34, most of whom can read and
write exceedingly well, and some are very
Intellectual and bright for the chance they
have had. Their studies include reading,
writing, spelling, geography, arithmetic
and U. S. history. Our school session con
sists of 3 hours in the forenoon from 9
o'clock to 13. The afternoons are devoted
to industrial work, the boys are taught the
ways of farming, caring for stock and
many various other things necessary to a
civilized race, the girls are instructed in the
things pretaining to house-keeping, etc.
The school at prevent is under the super
vision and management of Prof. I W .

day, Is not the Indian of twenty years ago.
No, not by any means, he is far superior in
every respect Instead of their savage and
roaming habits they are becoming perm
anently settled, and are pursuing the occu
pations of industry. In this line as well as
several not mentioned it Is a noticeable fact,
that they are making rapid and marked
progress. In passing over the Reservation
one will notice quite a number of neatly
constructeddwellings, well furnished. This
was not the case a few years ago. But
what is the cause of all these changes in
the modes and habits of this race of peo
ple ? I say it is the education they have
received, and the training in the pursuit of
industry that has been taught them is the
means by which these changes are brought
about. And I truly believe, the only, and
successfal way of civilizing the Indians is
to educate them. This is being done at a
rapid rate and may it still continue.
