S A noticeable feature of the celebra tion yesterday was the absence of the customary bunch of rowdies and drunks and although the crowd was the largest in the history of the Hub City, the day passed without a fight and very few drunks were seen on the streets, A crowd like the one which filled the local streets yesterday is ordinar ily a difficult one to handle and the pleasure of the visiting throngs is generally marred by list fights, drunken brawls and accidents, but to Chief of Police IJauglltry belongs the credit of giving the city of Albany its quietest and most orderly celc- urauoil. Chief Daughtry had strengthened the police department bv the addi tion of a score or more of special of ficers and every member of the de partment was vigilant throughout the day and perfect order was maintained. The local police were of the great est assistance to the visiting neonle. directing them to places of amuse ment, restaurants and hotels, beside answering hundreds of questions and contributing in many other ways to the pleasure of the visitors in a most commendable maimer. A quiet wedding ceremony was performed on Thursday evening, July 4th at the Presbyterian manse in this city when Miss Vina Skinner was united in marriage to D. F. Sturte vant by the Rev. Franklin H. Gesel bracht of the First Presbyterian church. Only the immediate friends and relatives attended. The newly weds are both residents of Linn county and will make their home near Lebanon. How Hs Fait.

S The Democrats did a great thing wnen tney nominated, by a unani mous vote Woodrow Wilson for Pres ident of the Union. A man of high character, he represents the best in statesmanship, sate and sane, just the kind of a man this country needs at its head at this time. However turbulent the proceedings may have been at times the ending has been one of harmony and good will, a united democracy. There in almost. a universal opinion that the election of Wilson is certain. The nomination of Wilson suits the Misfit man from top to toe and back again. The very moment the nomination of Wilson was announced the sun came out gloriously. W. COURT HOUSE NOTES. Q Warranty Deeds. The Albany Land Co. to B Jewell. Dec. 29. 1910.

"The Best I Ever Used" It Stands Hard, Bough Usage Under Paciflo Northwest Con ditions. LOCAL HORSEWOMAN IS GIVEN OVATION BY PARADE SPECTATORS Keep Albany dry, even if a wet day, on the 4th. OIlic James, with ten children, would certainly have the unstinted support of Roosevelt for almost any thing old thing. There is an old saying that women have put many spokes in the wheel of destiny. It is a fact that Albany wo men have done their share towards putting spokes in the Hub city. Here's 10 Mr, Logan, jelly, jamb, canned or straight. The eagle did a good job and con tinues to be the king of birds. A big thing about a 4th of July celebration is a big crowd. While it didn't rain there were nu merous threats. The 4th is bound to bring something wet. One of the most attractive features of the parade yesterday, was the tan dem team of snow white horses driv en by .Mrs. Xell Riley-Scott of this city who was given an ovation all along the line of march. Mrs. Scott was attired in a hand some riding habit of white and wore a high hat of white silk, and carried a large American Hag which was held in place at the stirrup and pom mel of the saddle. Mrs. Scott occupied a place im mediately behind the automobile sec tion and led the parade proper. Mrs. Scott is an expert horsewoman and is one of the most graceful riders in the Willamette Vallev. (NOT IN THE TRUST) ggggffif Followed our fathers across the plains' a half century ago: cut virgin grasses of this Oregon country and built up their reputation for sturdy durability. Adriance Buckeye Mowers have been sold in the Pacific Northwest for 47 years. The new Adriance Buckeye sticks to the old fashioned idea of uprightness in building adding latest improvements. AutomaticSpring Draft operates only Disengaging Pawls. The wheel pawls when needed. "o tendency to lift cutter bar off grouud wheu tinder unusual strain as whon striking an. obstacle. Saves hay, driver, team and machine. Used on Adriance Buckeye only. Steel Wearing Plates for each clip and above and below knife head. Give lung life to parts. Found only on Adriance Buckeye Mowers. Brass Boxes for Crank Shaft. BrasB boxos at each end of crank shaft. Others have only one and some none at all. Our Pitman box is brass also. Buckeye boxes wear longest. Internal Gear. Crank shaft is driven by internal spnr gear instead of an external bevel gear as in others. Spur gear runs easier ou high speed and with no end thrust and an internal gear engages more teeth of the pinion at one time. Our slow gears are bevel, making the Buckeye combin ation lightest running and of longest life. may be disengaged when on the road so that no gears are in operation. An exclusive Buckeye feature. There is a clutch too for starting and stopping the knife. Ratchet Castings Separate from the wheels. If one becomes worn out or broken you don't have to replace the wheel as you do in others. Re duces your repair account. Folded Cutter Bar. When on road tho Buckeye Cutter Bar is folded over tongue. No other as securely folded. This feature may save an expensive accident. Look for These Features. When you buy a mower look for the above features for no mower is as good without them. Besides being light in draft aud long of life the Adriance Buckeye c.-in be depended upon to cut any grass that any other mower will cut and then some. We Carry a Complete Slock of All Repair Parts 1 ! il I WALDO ANDERSON & SON Albany beat Portland thru 2 tuh. Wow for Albany's greatest celebra tion, the third annual Chautauoua as sembly of the Hub. Albany and Eugene are now hotb the greatest railroad centers in the valley; but Albany has regular trains running out and in six ways, while Eugene has them running in three. Sam Dolan made a o-ood ton.bHnwn in his oration. Woodrow Wilson looks good to the masses regardless erf party. Onething certain is. Albanv had the most elaborate decorations in its his tory, and probably the biggest crowd. Albany's 4th was unite a home com ing, and many old-timers were here, tne .Mistit man was glad to sec. Certainly it was a sane 4th. with out much noise, a little drunkenness and general good behavior prevailing. r A big camnaiirn on the Tol-nsoti- Flynn light coming all the same time is a good deal for one to keep track of, with one head. 6756 white siloes in Albany all at one time. Wc need to hear the declaration of independence once in awhile these days of trust and social slavery. Our heads almost swim kceoinc track of the many trains in and out of Albany, thirty-eight a day now. J. V.
