LOCAL KKCORD.
From a Humb Papkr. A great inter
est has been manifeitcJ here in the acci
dent which resulted in the death nt Paisley,
Lake count.v, of Mr O Z Morgan, who had
many friends in IJnn county, we give the
following account of the acci lent from the
Lakeview Examinrr :
OnJuly3isthc was in the act of re
moving a long, strong rope from the neck
of a wild and treacherous horse, when the
animal became frig'.itened And started lu
run, entangling the loose end of the rope
around his leg, about the spur, and thrs
dragging him at a great speed, several
times around a large corral before the ani
mal finally stopped, and he was released
by his ten year old son. His sufferings
were Intense and continuous from that
time till released by death. Deceased
came from among the older and most
highly respected pioneers of Oregon. He
was born in Polk county .this State, on the
jSth day of August, 1849. His father and
mother, Miller Morgan and wife, still live
in Linn county, and many other relatives
reside in different parts of the Willamette
Valley. He leaves a widow and two sons,
the eldest about ten years old and the
youngest an Infant about three months
old.

A special train bringing the passengers

ed in Albany at 6:30 o'clock last evening.
The steamer crossed the bar at 1 o'clock,
after being outside in a dense fog for two
days. To a Democrat man who came
over on the special train the passengers
expressed their admiration for the splendid
treatment and fare received on the stcam-
The following resolution unanimous
ly passed by the passengers was handed
us for publication :
Whkrkas, We, the passenger of the
steamship "Willamette Valley," on her
7jnd vovage from San Francisco to Ya-
quina Bay, having been delayed for two
days and nights off the Cuas of Oregon by

Probably Cream. The Democrat
has had the pleasure of meeting Messrs
C E Barrows and E C Searles, two live
young men recently from Chicago, who
are in the Willamette Valley with a view
to locating, with the chances in favor of
Albany as the site of their future home.
They are business men, and have the cut
of the genuine rustler. As Sunset Cox
puts it we shouldn't be surprised if the
were some of the cream being shipped
from the East. They pronounce this a
magnificent and unsurpassed Valley.
Fireman's Tournament, The North
west Firem in s association and tourna
ment, by a vote of the directors held at
Vancouver yesterday,will be held at Taco
ma beginning on September i6lh and last
ing three days. It will be the greatest
tvent in the history of the association. else
the following list of very large prizes is no
indication. Albany should send a team
equal to that of last year.and there would
be no question as to its securing one of the
large prizes ;
Wet test First prize, $1000 ; second,
$300 ; third, $lco.

Our Hospital. Since the Democrat
was published yesterday some active steps
have been taken towards securing the
public hospital, to be managed by the Sis
ters, for Albany. The land for the same
has been promised and a deed will be se
cured, which will insure the location of
the hospital here. Our business men seem
generally to appreciate the value of such
an Institution for Albany and will do their
snare towards getting it. 1 tie matter will
come up in a tangible form in a short time.
and the Democrat will keep its readers
posted about this Important Institution
Uncivil and Disobliging. The Yi-
quina Refublkian makes a defence for the
postmaster of Newport against the criti
cisms made against that official for being
- uncivct. disobliging and incompetent. Its
defence is a mere denial, but the com
plaints are so general and uniform that
there Is hardly a question of the truth of
the charges- The writer has heard of
these complaints from all sources and
from many whose motive in the matter
could not be other than henest and candid.
Albany The Detroit free rress
whose representative was in the city re
cently gives Albany a good writcup.
Though not over drawn, It is plainly and
fairlv stated, and is such an article as
should do the city some service. Here
the writers summary on Albany. The
steady and rapid growth of this favored
,ection will find a reflex in Albany, which
Is and must continue to be its chief com
mercial city, and to the impartial observer
It would appear that she is bound to ex-
nerience In the near luiure an era 01 pros

Orgn State Weather Bureau c oper
ating with U. S. Signal Service Central of
nee, Portland, Or., for the week ending
Saturday, August 10th, 1SS9 :
The temperature has been lower during
the past week than It has been for the five
pievious weeks. No rainfall is reported.
This makes the seventh week of contin
uous dry weather. The sun was almost
continually obscured by the smoke from
the extensive fo.-cit fires, which are doing
so much damage in the Cascade and Coast
ranges.
The shipment of peaches, pears und
plums has increased. Large quantities of
fruit are being gathered. Watermelons
and cantalopes aie very plentiful. Excel
lent reports are received relative to the
fruit yield and prospects.
The wheat harvest continues and large
quantities are being delivered to the ware
houses. The market has an upward ten
doncy. Little wheat is being sold, but 61
cents per bushel is offered in the Valley
and 56 cents in Eastern Oiegon. Oats and
barlev are yielding well, but rather light
in weight. The reports continue to indi
cate that the potato crop will be below the
average.
Western Oregon, north of the Rogue
River, generally reports good yields of
wheat, oats and barley as well as fruits,
equal to the average. Wheat In Eastern
Oregon is yielding better than was expect
ed, especially so in the Grande Ronde and
Indian Valleyi.The general yield of wheat
in Oregon will equal that of former years,
True, the hot weather and dry winds had
a verv iniurlous effect and these caused
the shortaee in the expected yield. The
acreage has been largely increased, and it
Is by this increased acreage tnat tne aver
age crop will be obtained. By the remark
in these bulletlnes, tnat sucn a county or
such a section would have an average
yield the intention is that the amount tor
shipment will equal tnat 01 lormer years,
though the amount per acie may be less
ened.
In the counties adjoining Sherman ana
Wasco there will not be more than enough
wheat for home consump'ion. In other
parts of Eastern Oregon yields of from 10
to 40 and some 50 bushels per acre are
reported. The general average will be
from 20 to 25 bushels per acre. In West
ern Oregon, so far as can be gleaned from
reports the general average win oe irorn
25 to 30 bushels per acre.
