Ii. who intend to shorten all un necessary curves, convert it into a standard gauge and otherwise im prove the line, we venture to sug gest to that company the propriety of building the line through Leba non. Several reasons might be urged in support of this proposition. Th route through Lebanon seems the natural, as it is also the short er route. No one knows better than railroad men that bridges (es pecially long ones) are very expen sive and if insecurely built are liable to be Bwept away by each annual freshet. The South San tiam bridge has twice been carried away by the tlood and has sub sequently sustained heavy damages. Owing to ths low lands in the vi cinity of the present bridge and the soft yielding banks of the river at that point the company must neces sarily be at . considerable expense annually, besides a loss of traffic consequent on such damage. These leases can be obviated by bridging the river north of Lebanon. The riTer at this point is narrow, the banks are high, and solid masonry, ready made, is at hand. When the narrow gauge was built nearly every town on the proposed route Teas given the alternative of a bo nus or death. Lebanon, in com mon with many other townB, refus ed to give the xmua and took the risk of losing the road. Lebanon has grown steadily despite the im pending doom? While the road has many times shown unmistake ble signs of dissolution. Had the road been built through our town, which is the most feasible route, the narrow gauge would have avoided several heavy losses, travel would have Iwn uninterrupted and the company would have had many thlsanda of dollars when to-day nas noining. - A stranger, who thinks of locat ing in Lebanon, asked us this week if the people of this town intended to cut that ditch which is to afford water-power for the various manu factories which are likely to spring up here. Said he, the water-power at Albany and Salem is the cause -qf UlfirI'5' growth of those two cities. When this ditch is cut Leb anon wili take a stride forward that will surprise even the most pro gressive citizens. Let the work be done and then we shall escape the dull monotony of manual processes, and challenge the maufacturing world to h. comparison of handi work. No sooner do our people set on foot one enterprise, than another is projected. Now that we are to have a large paper mill, a fine pub lic school buildings in addition to the Academy a machine and re pairing shop, our enterprising citi ens begin to cast about for some new enterprise. About the next thing will be a water ditch or canal to furnish power for the numerous manufacturing industries of this western "Lowell." Do you see anything significant or suggestive at the head of this paper? This is no narrow gauge train. We intend to make our pa per so interesting that the old will subscrile fr it, the young will cry for it and evervlxvlv read it. You 5vtH--&lJLt"cKeaper to pa v $2 for the "Express" than to spend one j day in each week making a house-to-house visitation to get the news. Citizens of Lebanon, if you mean to vent your patriotism on the Fourth of July it is none too soon t begin preparations. Lebanon has been going abroad to celebrate long enough; let's kindle a fire of patriotism at our nation's next an niversary and send the American blood coursing through the veins of every patriot with such rapidit y that they will see strange sights. Everybody, even the candidates, are pleased with the nominations made last week. Next June one half the countenances will not be so radiant nor beautiful. When a man is 60 stingy as to borrow, a newspaper when he is able to buy, he will talk through his nose to save his teeth. West v Side. The political world was shocked on last Sunday by the announce ment of the death of Samuel J. Ran dall. Mr. Randall has enjoyed a long and brilliant career in Amcri ican polit ics. He will long occupy warm place in the heart of every true American citizen for his manly strilVand tireless efforts on lehaJf carts we leave behind is not to die." Of every really great man it may be truthfully "said be is more influentially present' after death than during life. Shakespeare dead exerts a greater influence than Shakespeare li ving, and so of all others who have wrought upon the springs of civilization and given the eworld ahint that thereis beyond the narrow', visual line of party boun- darics a region f principles world- I 7einxnoir lniiuejyrc una griMnci 11UOW NSMI.I.E NOTKS.

The malls between Brownsville and Lebanon go through now i one day. Many thanks, Uncle Samuel. C. H. F.lswick is building a new porch on his house and making other improvecr enta to his property. Brownsville needs a machine and repair shop. Such an enterprise would Le a good investment for the right kind of man. J. K. Wentherford, of Albany, has been invited to deliver nn address at the Oild Fellows celebration in Browns ville April JiOst. Dr. I. W. Starr has received two new show cases and a new stock of goods for the drug store. This store would be a credit to any city on the coast. Bom, to the wife of W. Swearinjren, at South ItmwnsvHlp, April 12, a daughter. (1. V. Htandish is responsi ble for this that is the item, not the baby. Why don't our rifle club arrange for a prize shooting contest on the 2tlth. There will be a largn crowd in town and it would add another attraction to the program. Mr. J. M. Jaeger, Supt. of the Eagle Wooleu mills, has gone to San Fran cisco on important business looking to the improvemedt and increased capac ity of the mills. We met two hard-looking tramps on tne railroad bridge Sunday afternoon, and upon inquiry learnc-d that they had eome to Brownsville to eet a job on the Calapooia Valley Railroad. Bill Waters says that any young man who will buy one of those silk shirts for sale in the store will he guaranteed a first -elass girl for tne Odd Fellows' eelcbration. This is a chance for a good speculation. The contract to rebuild the county bridge between JCorth and South Browi'sville has leen awaried to Hoff man A Bates of Portland for the sum of ,800. This is the best news we have heard for a week. In the arrangement of the goods in Owen Osburn's store we can trace the artistic hand of a lady. Owen was gone on a lng vis-it; perhajm he brought home a wife. How is it, Owen? We want the bottom facts. Messrs. Wm. Moore, Bert Willsnn and Luther Moore went grouse-Vunt-ing Saturday and killed seven line fat grouse. The biys then rested and had a grouse dinner.

He linn R good water power, building and store and consid erable machinery. This would be a iKtnanza for a couple of enterprising men with small capital. Sunday was a beautiful day. Dame Nature put on her most winning smile to tempt both young and old out into the beautiful suushine. The Utile ones were out on the hills gathering wild flowers, while the more serious were giving thanks to the author of all our pleasures. Mr. Hasbrook, an old and respected citizen of Linn county, last Tuesday was suddenly called to that bourne from wnieh none "ietuni. While plowing in the field he dropped dead from what is supposed to have lean heart disease. He was discovered by Mr. Banty and taken to his home. Dr. Henry was summoned, but too late to do any good. We visited the band rooms Monday evening, and was just in time to see Mr. Ed Sawyer dressed up in one of the new uniforms jut purchased by the band. Ed Is a handsome fellow under any circumstances, but when dressed in that bright new uniform he fairly took our breath away. The uni form consists of coat, and iants and a dark-blue helmet trimmed with red and gold braid aud surmounted with a bright red plume. The situation in Brownsville in re gard to the saloon license is decidedly Funny. The prohibition element is very angry over the action of our coun cil, while "the devotees of the flowing bowl sip their bug-juice with a com placent smile; and our city dads are seratcking their heads in a perplexed way as if they had forgotten some thing. Perhaps the reason that our council did not act sooner on that question was that they were waitiujr for a learned professor from Europe to cipher the meaning f the ticket u on which they were elected. Tiie ticket rend high 'license, and is in harmony with the action of the council. Some people say thxi It was a straight-out prohibition ticket in other words pro hibition under false colors. The whole thing is a ridiculous farce and Urn less said about it the better. If we elected a council on a bigh-license it-sue and expect them to make prohibition laws we expect them to do something con trary to the principles upnu which T hey were elected. If the advocates of prohibition are afraid to print that word tu the head of their ticket they had letter sell cut. We are disguteiJ with the whole business. Nk.mu. I'BINKVILI.K NKWS.
