Washed and Reti'uned It. Mr. I. C.
Dickey, of this city, has pone to Port
land to work (or the Oregon Iron Works.
Mr. Dickey is a good workman wid a
square man to boot. He was sheriir of
Linn county one term. He says lie is
one of the first and faithful, ami lived in
the forks of the Santiam when Joab
Powell was pastor of the community,
and that he assisted in running the first
newspaper puhlished in the now town of
Scio, and he solemnly says that they
printed it on a white rajr or canvas
and issued to their readers with the un
derstanding that they were to read,
wash and return, which they invariably
did. We sincerelv rcirret to lose Mr.
Dickey, but henrtily commend him to
the Portland folks and hope he may do
well there. i-ulem Democrat.
Tumbled. People who know the lay of
the land at Corvallis will appreciate the
following from the Gazette : A young
fellow lately from thecast,while standing
with two companions, close to the edge of
the bank of the river at the foot of Setter
eon street on Sunday last, attempted the
mash act on a certain young lady of this
citv. and. in attempting to make a very
polite bow stepped backwards a little too
tar and, before he saw his mistake, was
precipitated to near the water's edge
nearly forty feet straight down. Strange
as it may seem, he received no injuries,
but his Sundav-go-to-meeting clothes
were liberally besmeared with dirt and
his little footsy-tootsiea came in contact
switu the water.
A Send Off. The Rena Marsell's
Dramatic Co., who claim to have played
In Walnut St. Philadelphia, have been
doing all the small places through the
Valley. The Stayton Sun soars In th
following manner, which makes the Dem
ocrats art critic treinble with envy
"Tuesday evening East Lvnde was excel
lently rendered. Miss Rena Marsetl's a6
Lady Isabella of the highest order of ele
vation. Sir Franci Levtson played the
outrageous vlllian hugely. His goat-ee
and mush'tash sand-witched with a smile,
not from ear to ear, but very long th
short way,"

Kugene, nut by me receni scnooi census,
in the two towns itaonears now that the
conntv seat of Lane county has passed its
neiithlior in reirard to population. Here
are the figures as presented at the school
nieetinir in tho two towns last mommy :
Persons between the age of 4 and 20 years
in Eugene district, 1,000 ; Albany, 1,028.

will lie readilv seen that the blowing by
the Albany naners about having 5,000 to
0,000 population is all wind. Eugene, a
i . . -l..: o ntn nni,intmn

The above is from the Eugene Guard
and as we publish everything we get
about Albany we give the above. The
figures given are for the Bcliool districts
and not for the cities, and hence only in
dicate for the districts, which cover dif
ferent extents of territory. And as we
have stated before Eugene is a university
town, containing people re-siding there
for school purposes.and it is not complete
ly fair to compare it on the school census.
Better wait for the June census. That
will show the cities population alone.
TOE MAN ABOUT TOWN.
The Man About Town has just read
the following in a county ex : "Albany
will soon follow the example of Browns-
ille and Lelianon and organize a Board
ofT-Tde. Good idea." And the item Is
good idea too. We had one once ; but
is gone, vamoosed the ranch. Allianv
iioiiKi not lie u i hi i'o natterninir al er
couple live neighlxi.-s.
Having no scandals in Albany the Man
Aliout Town is obliged to re'er to one ill
Jalein. Prof Randall is charg?d with
hugging a thirteen year old girl. As both
of the papers there Boein to have a pick at
the Prof, the Man About Town rises to
remark that the Prof, is absolutely inno
cent. A gentleman of irreproachable
lituacter just from there savs it is all
l'ooliehness,and is siniplv a cas- of Salem
spite by a few men. the Man About
Town dues hate to see a uion particularly
a uioral,cxamplary man attacked. Hug a
lamp post, a nariier pole or an Indian to
bacco sis:ii : but don't hue a thirteen year
out girl.
The Man About Town rejoices to see
that all through Linn there is a live
movement forward, not only in Allxtny,
but in Lebanon, Brownsville, Scio, liar-
risburg, Halsey and in every place in the
county. Four of tho places mentioned
will have newspapers. Harrisburg, the
nrst to nave one boinir lett out. It must
hunt up a press. In these places too real
estate is ciouimng m value. In lelianon,
lor instance, tne Man About Town is in
formed that a live former resident of that
city, now residing here, has cleared $15,
000 in real estate transactions during the
past year. Who has done better than
that in Albany property.
The streets of Albany just at the pres
ent moment are in a frightful condition.
Let the truth be told. To ride along any
st reet in the city is like churning butter
by hand. Every crosswalk is another
splash. There are holes and holes, and
just west of the O. P. R. R. track on First
Street is a place that looks like the crater
of a volcano. It takes hardihood to nav
igate it. At crossings there are deep
watery excavations, and mud untold. Our
city has a big iob on hand in the im
provement of our streets, and liecause
Spokane and Tacoma have slathers of
mud and grew is no reason why Albany
ghould also have the element always.
Ooes to Corvallis.
Mr W liter Wiles, who ha been with
Foahay & Mason several years, ha resigned
on account of having accepted the position
nf ea.hier of the Beaton Conntv hank. A
faewell paty wai tendered him Thursday
evening by his brother cleric, ftir liawsoo,
Mr Wiles is a very exemplary young man,
whom Cirvallis is fortunate in receiving as
a resident. The member of the V L ar
ciety ot the Baptist chnroh showed their
appreciation ot Mr wiles dv presenting mm
villi a nesuuiui fioia locnet witn tie si;ua
turei of thirteen original members inscribed.
As nresident of tbat society, it incressed in
two years from that number to 150, a fine
showing.
They QuAiuiEL. In Astoria the Co
lumbian and Astorian both claim to re
ceive the associated press dispatches and
are having a lively quarrel about it. The
fact is neither receives more than a pony
service, as it is called. The Astorian
says : In the closing months of laBt year
a few papers succeeded in raising enough
monev to eet some kind of telegraphic
service,satisfactorv to themselves, but not
what would suit 1 lie Astorian. ine ren
dleton Tribune, the Walla Walla Union.
and one or two other papers of that class
got in, and, probably, the Columbian.
That service is good enough for such pa
pers as can't anord to buy anything bet
ter, but it IB not good enough lor ine As
torian.
.' West Back os Him. Arriving home
from Yaquina Bay yesterday we found
the office eeserted and no paper issued
or ready to issue. Having no other
choice we issue a half sheet. Our ar
rangements were perfect for the issuance
of the paper hereafter without our per
sonal supervision, as we supposed, elfi
we would have made diffi-rent arrange
ments. The old quotation "Whereso
ever von think a man be, there he isn't
likewise," caught us out this week, sure.

Fearful Prediction. A noted phy
sician predicts that all people who have
had the grippe will get the cholera as
soon as hot weather gets in. The Will

Simply Immense. Speaking of big
things, L E Blain has the largest and best
selected stock of clothing in the valley ,his
counters being packed to their utmost
capacity. This is not an advertising
statement but a fact. His new goods
embrace a fine line of suits, among others
some manufactured by the Albany Wool
en Mill Co., which will be sold for $10 a
suit. Wear an Allianv suit. Ilia new
stock of boots and hats is also large and
embraces the latest Btyles. Ihe advan-
tjira of a larze stock to select from
greatly appreciated by Mr Blain's cus
tomers.
Xew Adoitios. '-'Wright's addition"to
Albany is now on the market and com
prises 165 large.level and beautiful build
ing lots. The blocks have eight lots to
the block, each lot being 80 by 100 feet,
The streets are 60 feet wide, with two
large avenues, one ot loo teet, the other ol
90 feet in width. There will probably be
a motor or electric line to this addition
before long. For terms of sale apply to
any real estate agent in the city.
Stall Fed Beef. Haight Bros.,of this
city, have just purchased thirty-five head
of stall fed beef, twenty-one being secur
ed of Mr Green McDonald, paying 4 cents
gross, or about 8 cents net, the cattle
averaging aliout $50 a head. They will
be cut up in the market, and the public
will lie assured of lieing able to get some
fine meat for several days.
HY is it. a man who has some
wheat stored at Corvallis wishes us to
ask why it is that wheat is 111 cents here
and only 58 there, though they have
liuasted or having as good a market.
