LOCAL BREVITIES. ■Bud Thompson and wife and Joe Grubband wife, of Lebanon, made Scio a Hying visit last Sunday. A car load of calves was shipped from Scio Saturday over to the Sound to be butchered for veal. The price of oats is advancing 'which adds materially to the happi ness of ye granger, providing he has any to sell. À n u tnber of i he cand idàtes spent last Sunday night in this city, going on the O. P. train on Monday to Rock Creek. Mr. J. Heald, proprietor of the town of Healdsburg, Calif., and fam­ ily are visiting relatives in this city and vicinity. A. J. Johnson of Salem was in town Saturday. ' Arch while here developed considerable skill as a pitcher of hlirseshoes. Dr. J. L. Hill of Albany was in town Sunday, called in consultation with Dr. Hyde over the illness of Mrs. W. H. Bilyeu. G. VV. Dugger, of Pasadeda, Calif., who has been visiting relatives in this city for the past two weeks, went to Portland Saturday. J. C. Johnson, of Salem, arrived in this city Sunday. We opine he is taking quite a lively interest in poli tics and comes back to fields familiar to further the interests of his pel candidates. M. A. Miller, candidate on the democratic legislative ticket, is de­ veloping into quite a good stump oi ator, so says report. He at least is making votes by canvassing the county. Roy Gill, accompaniea by a Mr. Montgomery, both of whom have been students.in the state normal school at Monmouth during the past year, arrived on a visit to thé for­ mer’s parents in this city last Fri- day. yeu, Geo. SmitlTmid^GTWrSug^r^ went, up Thomas creek last week on a trout fishing expedition, but as our Veracity has been strained consider­ ably of late, we will not make any statement as to the number of trout caught-, only to state that we are sat­ isfied there are a few of the speckled beauties still in the stream. Last week we spoke of a marriage ceremony having been performed out at Shelburn. It- appears that we were mistaken as to who performed the ceremony, and we willingly make the amende honorable by pub­ lishing the marriage notice as sup­ plied te us by our correspondent: Married—In Shelburn, at the resi­ dence of and by Rev.Daniel Bridges, Mr. John Griffin and Miss Annie Vernon, all of Linn county. When the Presbyterian' ministers came through The Dalles on their way to Portland they stopped off for breakfast. The Times-Mountaineer says considerable merriment was created by a kind hearted Christian lady, who went about distributing tracts among the passengers,' noi knowing they were all ministers of the gospel. A doctor of divinity re­ ceived one on the evil of gambling, and a white haired pillar of the church was given one on the sin of dancing. Some of the ladies w;ere the recipients of treatises on the evil of tobacco .smoking and chewing, jdram drinking in saloons, etc. No the doner, but the subjects for mis­ sionary work were not well chosen. In company with G. W. Phillips, j. W. Camber and Mr. Overholts, a P ress reporter started Friday for Waterloo. We only got as far as Lebanon that day, however, as the excellent meals and superior accom­ modations of the St. Charles hotel of that city under the management of Bud Thompson proved too strong a temptation for our party. On arriv­ ing at Waterloo Friday morning we found all the county candidates and 3 spectators assembled there, and af­ ter-sampling the soda water and lighting one of Bill Guy’s prohi cigars we started for Sodaville. At this place we found quite a number of people lying in wait for the office seekers, who had already began to arrive. But we hadn’t tost any office and as soon as we could choke Wash off from talking people’s party (that not being our religion) we lit out for the Forks,- having' learned nothing new except a recipe' bn priming a pump, which same' wlis given, with illustrations, by Mr. Gamber. I The Jefferson brass band will give a picnic on Friday, June 10. Albany is making arrangements to give a grand 4th of July celebra­ tion. The Seattle fund for the relief of the Roslyn .suffers hits reached $6000. Ben Connor, one of Jeff -rson’s en­ terprising hardware merchants, was in town Monday. The Willapa Republican has again changed hands. It is now owned by Mr. Prusell, a Dsmhcrat. Miss. Lena Saunders, of Tacoma, who recently fell four stories down an elevator shaft, will recover. The Albany Collegiate institute has let the contract for the erection’ of an addition to that seat of learn- Albany is proud of her new bridge, and she has ample reason for being so, as it is one of the handsomest structures of the kind on the coast. W. R. Bilyeu is acknowledged to be one of the best criminal lawyers in the state, just such an one as should hold the office of prosecuting attorney. A barn on the farm of Al McKin­ ney, fourteen miles north of Cor­ vallis, collapsed the other evening about dusk, killing a 14-year old girl named Miss. Neal. Several horses were also killed. Judge Humphrey is unfortunately kept, off from the canvas by sickness in his family. His friends should watch his interests closely and se.e that no unfair advantage of him is taken by those persons who are try­ ing to encompass his defeat. Homer Caron, a young rancher of Muck county, Wash., was drowned last Saturday while attempting to ford the Nisqually river. A pathetic feature of the accident was the fact that the drowned man was then on his way to be married to a young lady in Olympia. We hear of a fight which occurred between two men by the name of Vaughn and Russell at Jefferson last Saturday, in which Vaughn was badly punished. Our informant stated that Mr. Vaughn had the. sympathy of most, of the people there and was regarded as being the least to blame in the affair. William a 13-year old boy of L. S. Winters fell with his bicycle last oni?fflT^ff?St"^?!emr,"Tn^^mTmar was frightened and kicked striking the boy over the left eye, crushing his skull badly,.so that several, pieces of bone had to. be removed. He is still unconscious and three phy sicians have declared that he cannot, live. The Santiam Forks in extent of territory comprises more than one- third of Linn county, and owing to the numerous streams, has nearly one-half of the bridges. In order that these public improvements can be properly looked after and kept up, one of the county commissioners at least should be a resident of this locality, as he thereby would be the more identified and interested in' improvements in this part of the county. The democratic parly have named Th os. F. Miller of Scio for that office, and we feel free to say that from what we can learn he is eminently qualified for the require­ ments of the office. He is sufficient­ ly broad minded to see the needs and wants of the entire county, as well as his own particular locality, is one of our ■ progressive, enterprising and trustworthy, farmers, honest I and well worthy the suffrage of the voters of Linn county. Efflcsrs Elsotod. The following officers were elected ny last Thursday afternoon, bring­ ing their labors to a close Friday at noon. The meeting was well attend­ ed and one ahd all speak of having a very pleasant and profitable session: R P Boise, M. John Mediar,• O. H E Hayes, L. J D Chitwood, S. G R Stevenson, A S. David Eby, C.

As this failure was .caused by his own neglect it is manifestly unfair to try and saddle the responsibility upon County Clerk Sherman of Marion county, as we are informed some democratic partisans are trying to do. Neither was Geo. H. Burnett at all responsible for this neglect. The following letter taken from the Daily Statesman of Wednesday explains tlfe whole matter, and in order that Mr. Burnett should-not be blamed for something for which he is in no way accountable for, we give the entire letter. dressed himself to the tariff ques­ tion; was in favor of restriction of J emigration; that the people moved in great questions every 30 years; that the people’s party was one of these great political moves.

J. N.
