Bovi-rniir of Oregon, when it waa a purt
of Culifornia- -Kodmiin M Price in h '. i 1 1
livini! in New ieraoy, his lmiivo utiito.
The connection between (iorernor Price
and Oregon wan n't ho clear anil direct
on it miiilit lllsve lm'" however. In
1815 lie wan punier in tlie United States
nvyawl wHh mi expedition that cap

In 1MB ho wH made navy agent for the
l'ncilic count and a such he was the
virtual governor of the. country. Thin
was when he wae governor of Oregon,
lint ho tliil llot hng remain on this
count- Ho returned to New Jersey and
.;.',. I,., to cotiureHS in 1851 and gov
ernor of that state in 1M54. lfo was a
delegate to the peace conference in 18(11.
lie was always a democrat. It is said
that he expended 200,000 of his private
funds for the government while in Cali
fornia and has nevr lieen reimbursed.
This is extremely doubtful. At any rate
the old governor is still living at the age
, of 74 years- Kntcrprise.
Tub Car Too lim. Several weeks ago
.Fortiuiller 4 Irvine ordered a car load of
furniture from the Kast and in order to
get special rates had it shipped in a car
made specially for extra sized orders of
over '20,000 pounds of furniture, being
,much larger than even the big furniture
cars we have been in the habit of seeing.
The goods failed to arrive iu Albany on
time, and Kortmiller & Irving have just
learned tho reason. On reaching the
enow sheds it was found the car would
not go through, (a fad) and it had to he
taken back and Bliipped by nnother
route. The furniture includes an ele
gant assortment, including about seventy
live bedroom sets, and owing to the big
saving in freight customers will get
special bargains. Keep your eyes on the
biggest furniture car ever brought into
Oregon.
E 11 Ia'I'KV Hkakd Fkom. Nathan
IVolflT, a coniinorcial traveler for the firm
of ri It fci hike spiel & Co., was in town
vosterday. lie informed Joseph Luckey
that bo met K 11 Ltickey at Kicramento,
between J'"eb 8th and 10tl, and rode
south with him unite a distance. He
says that he knows Eugene we'd and
could not possibly be mistaken; that be
talked iu his usual intelligent yay, aud
noticel nothing wrong about him. When
no last saw him he was pursuing his
journey southward, from this it would
seem that Mr lAicKey is alive ami wen.

Fkom tub Minks. Right men came
into (lutes yesterday from the niincB,
being obliged to get out on account of a
failure of supplies. Owing to deep snow
it Inn been impossible to get any in.
Tliev passed through eight feet ol the
softest kind of snow, so light that snow'
shoes could not be used, one man break
ing the way for a short distance and
then another, until the trip was made.

SiiiKicr R. K. Extension. A big im
provement in Albany and suburbs this
year will be the extension of the street
railway to tho Orphans Home, and the
introduction of motor power. The mat
ter, the Dkmuchat is informed, is in a
position to insure the movement. It
would lie a big thing if the road could
also go to the fair ground. almost a neces
sity if a county fair is held. I'ut a ball
ground behind the big seven foot fence
and it would add wonderfully to the
business.
Allium Day was celebrated by the
public school in an entertaining manner.
Exercises were held in the different
rooms, too many to keep track of. After
wards the children marched in neat ap
parel and with flying flags nnd flowers
on the campus, ending with the planting
oi the tree, which was named John (J
Whittier. Songs and other exercises
ere had. Prof Russell delivered an in
teresting tddress on -the occasion. The
observance is a n ice one, and leaves a
strong impression on thoso participating
in it.
That Hoiiavili.e Affair. W W Par
ish and J P Chessher, worthy citizens
of Sclav ilfc, got in a war of words at
that place some time ago, which lias
wen prolific of law suits. It seems that
each of these gentlemen was arrested by
the Sodayille marshal and the latter
Was lined. He was re-arrested under
"estate law for assault, by the com
plaint of Mr Parrisli, and was tried be
oie Justice Hindman. Express. The
defendant was discharged because he
ad already paid a fine for the offense.
It's Necessary. The necesMlv for
advertising Is very apparent to any reflec
tive mind. Ifan'owner wishes to sell his
Property he irujst let some ore know his
Uh If he kept his intentltSn to himself
"e would also keep his property to him

Publkh the fact that Parker Bros carry a
"ist-class stock of groceries, produce and
bed fioods.whlch can always be clepend
fn on to be fresh and in season. The fact
is one worth advertising.

Fay Mills. Kven the newspapers arc
excited over it. Mills knows what a
Christian is, according to tho Journal:
"Our looks ought to tell that we are
Christians. If a man is saved bo will
know it. Ho will have huppincHs. Thero
is no such thing as a gloomy Christian.
It is impossible. Christians cannot ride
two horses going in opposite directions
with any degree of comfort. We should
haveChriHt in our homes. There are
some hoihes the moment you .inter you
reali.e that Christ is there from the won
derful degree of peace and patience that
pervades the atmosphere. There is one
way (iod gives us to know that we can
he saved, because we havo love for an
other. This is tho test of the judgment
day. "Hereby we know that we have
passed from dca'h unto life because we
love the brethren." You can always tell
a Christian in the dark. There may be
times in prosperity when he looks like
other people, hut you cuu always tell
him in adversity."
A IIuakicman Kiiot. Tho dispatches
tell of a serious alf.iir for a brakeman on
the Southern Pucillc.at Marysville.Calif :
"11 11 Carley, briikeinau on the up Ore
gon e-j-;ess, was dangerously wounded
yeste day morning at 1 o'clock bv a shot
from revolver by a tramp. When the
north-bound train pulled in, the tramp
was seen descending from the roof of the
last car. After he had reached the
ground the brakeman started to run him
off. The tramp run around a water tank,
and, turning, drew a revolver and firrsd.
The ball etruck the young man in the
abdomen and passed through his body,
emerging near the back hip pocket, lie
is dangerously, if not fatallv wounded.
Carley has a wife and child at Sacra
mento, where bo was taken on the arrival
of the south-bound train later. Officers
are in pursuit of the tramp."
A Good County The Telegram says :
Linn la probably tho best-governed
county in Oregon. It is the third county
in the state in wealth and population.
Its tax rate is the lowest, or next to the
lowest, of any Oregon county. It is en
tirely out of debt. Linn has also
been fortunate in generally having some
able representatives in the legislature
men of breadth and Btrength and high
character. This year no state senator is
to be elected in Linn, Weatherforrl and
his popular young colleague, Myers,
holding over, lint there are three mem
bers to be elected to the house, and the
democrats have done wisely in putting
up an exceptionally strong and popular
ticket. The one who will bo depended
upon chielly to make the canvass 's M A
Miller, an able debater and a thorough
democrat in the broadest sense of that
term.
