Negotiations are under way with a California manufacturer for the con struction of the Lebanon ditch, and it is probable that it will be pnt through. Should the project succeed we have the assurance that the water power will be fully used for manufacturing purposes. I On last Saturday Rev. G. W.

This is a lively crowd and we are sure they will have a good time. "Why don't you run a newspaper like that?" a groceryman said to a re porter the other day, throwing out a Chicago daily. "For the same reason that you don't run a grocery store like that," the reporter replied, turning to an advertisement of a Chicago house, showing a twelve-story building. . The 1 groceryman looked attentively at the picture a moment and said: "I never looked at it in that way before." Ex. The Brownsville Wollen Mills Com 1 pany are considering the matter of re- ) moving their mills on account of there i not being sufficient water power at ;-x w.v.-nsvUl.. Tbey have purchased the water power ai aicnuu, pect to either go .there or to Albany. ti,ot have made a proposition to go ftAnere in case the citizens of that place offer sufficient inducements. It is pro posed to clo?e the mills about the first of next'V'Vr. Barn l"p the Straw. Yes, burn up' your straw and throw away everything you can; it is of no use you can't sell it and it is Just In the way. Now we have been inquir ing from the farmers and others well informed on the subject, and we And that within a radius of ten miles of Lebanon there is annually burned, wasted or rotted more than one thou sand tons of straw. Now if we had a paper mill at Lebanon this would bring the farmers a yearly income of f7000, besides give employment to many hands, and it would turn loos thousands of dollars monthly for labor, wood and other material. Lebanon alone would not be the gainer if a pa per mill were here. . Besides consum ng the wood and straw it would open a ready market for fruit and vegetables; hundreds of bushels of fruit that is now rottiug could be turned into ready cash. Chickens, eggs, butter and cheese would find cash sales at home. Fellow citizens, let us arise and build. If one man will not take hold of this, another will. "Let us not stand all the day idle," but take hold of this thing by the handle and keep on turn ing until we grind out a paper mill. A ret Coon Nearly Kills a Child. Following is from the Albany Herald : Saturday afternoon the flye-months-old babe of James V; Pipe was placed asleep upon the bed in the bed room, from which a door opened into the sit ting room, occupied by Mrs. Pipe and others. In the course of an hour or more a slight smothered noise was heard in the bed room, and the child's mother on going to the bed was horri fied to see a half-grown pet coon upon the child's breast, with its mouth fas tened over the child's lips. It had eu- tered at the open window and finding the babe asleep had bitten it about the mouth, and was sucking away its blood and fast smotherine it to death. . The s" wuiu wtaKtucu from loss of blow! that it could utter but a faint noise, and Mr. Pipe thinks in five minutes more would have been killed. Fortunately the child will not suffer any serious results. It is un necessary to add that the coon is now dead. Serlons Accident. On Monday an eight-year-old daugh ter of Wm. Rodman, of Bear ereek, was playing in a grain field where her brother was running a mower. Unob served by her brother she got in frott of the sickle, and before he could etc p the team the sickle struck her left ler, inflicting about twenty gashes between the ankle and knee. All the tendons of the back part of the leg were sc ered and numerous flesh wounds wer? inflicted upon the sides. Dr. Gesner was summoned and arrived at Mr. Rodman's almost -twelve hours after the accident occurred. The doctor found the injured limb very much swollen, though was able to dress the wounds, and is of the opinion that the little girl will recover and regain the use of the injured member. Ochoco Review. ' Sells Brothers' Circus and Menagerie. The advertisers of this justly cele brated show are "painting the town red'' with splendidly executed pictorial annoueements of its coming. No exhi bition in the world is better, if as well, advertised, and none so eompletely and to the letter fills the bill. Its rep utation of being among the best tented displays on the road is cosmopolitan, and whereever its immense volume ; of mighty canvas is spread the patr - nage is sure to crowd it to its capacity. It comes to us this year with number less added features, all strong drawing cards, and many of them never before presented te an American audience. Their bare back equestrians, both male and female, are marvelous performers, and the hippodrome attractions are as excitinff as they are realistic. The show will be in Albany August 27. Excursion to G. A. K- National Kncamp ment. An excureion train will leave Lcs Angeles, Cal.. for Columbus, Ohio, September 1st, going East via the Mt. Shasta route, and will pass through Albany September 4. Excursion tick ets will be sold at all towns along the line of the road. To accommodate those who will want to take train at non-coupon ticket offices, a ticket agent will accompany this particular train. The fare from Los Angeles and return is $80. We do not know whether or not it will be any cheaper from this point. The excursion goes to the Na tional Encampment of the G. A. R. Took Saltpeter by Mistake. Henry Bteinhausen, a bachelor re siding about three miles west of Ger vais, was found dead in bed Monday morning. The coroner was called nd an inquest held. It was found that he had taken a dose of saltpeter instead of salts. He was . in Gervais the day before, snCi purchased what he sup posed was salts, but by mistake called for saltpeter, of which he took au over dose. He was a German, about 45 years of age, and has no relatives in this country. Work to be Resumed on the O. P. The contract for completing the un finished work begun on the O. P. by Contractors Hunt and Bennett was let last Saturday to Brink & West, and work will commence at once. This contract will take the road the present season about seventy miles beyond Al bany. Next spring as early as possible it will be pushed through to Boise City. Five hundred Chinamen and a large number of white men have been en gaged, and work will be commenced the first of next week.
