T.ebnnon is not booming, she is sim ply growing steadily and normally. By laying hold rf and utilizinar the resources "at command growth follows as a nstural consequence. For live, wido-a-wake hardware an d stove men Matthews & Washburn, of Albany. Oregon, deserve tin large trade they are having fir the low prices they make on al! goods.

Messrs. M. Farley and E. P. Roby of Brownsville, called on the Exr;:iv?s Monday. These gentlemen have been in the "woolen mill at tiiat place f"r many years and are skilled in nearly all brances of the manufacturing trade. Some ladies in the neigh tvrhood of the Exprkss offlc- will p'ease organ ire a brass band or take in their horns. This thing of carrying on a guerilla warfare with martial wind instru ments seriously interferes with the printers. John G. Reed sent to this office one day this week a rest of eggs, which in size rival duck eggs; and even mother goose would do well to look to her lau rels. No one, better than a hungry printer, can appreciate the albuminous product. On Monday of thi week J. R. Kirk patrick conceived the plan, on Thurs day the lumber was o;; the ground, on Friday carpenters leg:m work and in thirty divys a store building 20x00, two stories high will be completed by the side of the Express office. If you cannot keep cool, keep as cool j as you can, say the folks t the restau rant, ana we viil aad a postscript to this. The young man who will not take his best girl to the ice creim sup per Friday night deserves a tempera ture sufiicient te baste a turkey. The site for the new school house was transferred yesterday. An archi tect is formulating plans, the contract will soon bo let, and Lebanon will shortly le the proud possessor of a school' house that will adil very mater ially to the attractions of the town. Capt. E. D. ITagnn, of Brownsville, is now in the employ of a Portland syndicate and will spend the cming season prospecting in- the Blue River and the Coin pooia mines. Unless we greatly misjudge the Capt. ho will make some valuable discoveries this summer. One of our farmers recently violated the Chinese exclusion act in a most fingrant manner. Ho pulled a Ivet in his enrden and found a Chinaman clinging to the roots. If beet cult ore is not prohibited in our State half the Chinese empire will be imported by this route. Mr. Hazen of Sodaville called on the Express this week. He telis us that the frame of the big hotel is up and that five carpenters are at work on the building. Farmers in ids icinity are generally through seeding. The out look for a bountiful fruit harvest is very good. Look at our saw mill ads. and tell us what you think of ourhimberingmter ests. Itis!ole hoped that Lebanon will be supplied with biiildingmaterial this year; if it is, our town will have many m-'re new houses to show at the close" of the year 38(H) thnn for any cor responding period in her history. It. will be seen that we have quite a range of correspondence this wVek, covering a part, only, of the field of our circulation. Be careful to send nothing but news, abridged and con densed and yoa will always find read ers. We want a good, live, corres pondent In every precinct. Mankind needs a closer acquaintance the world over. Mr. SfoiHuvoed, of Lebanon, and James Houires, of Portland, quietly rolled their blankets Tued;iy morn ing and headed for the mountains. The gent'-crmm did not make known to us Ihesr object or objective point, but we have 'every reason to think that they are not going for fun or health. Joe Clay pool and Archie Edmund sou came in from Squaw creek, Crook counts, Saturday, being the first to ers tiie mountains this spring. They traveled on snow shoes twenty-eight miles, the snow averaging ten feet in depth. Mr. Claypool says that fully one-half of the cattle and two-thirds of the sheep in Crook county perished last winter. We have come upon on era in which we have hardly time to pause ami add results; information is arriving so fast, the messengers throng upon each other so tumultuus!y that wo who have taken upon ourselves the duties cf re corders nsk your pardon if we do now and then become a little heedless of punctuation and by mistaking a comma for a full step, speak too soon. A false report lias teen circulated; until to-day it passe s current, that G. W. Wheeler's saw mill in Lelxmon is standing and that he is out of lumber. The saw mill is running and I have lumber in large quantities. If you want building material stop your cars to these false reports, drive out to my aw mill in Lebanon and you can get what you want. G. W. Wiieki.kr. Dr. B. Hamlin, of Lemore, Cul., says a few down bottles of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy which he sold there cre ated" such a demand for the remedy that he conid not well get along wit out it. Those who use it t'.nd it so much suporior to any other remedy they have ever tried thai they reeofmnenii it to their friends, and 'that is what makes it so popular. For kuIc by M. A. Miller. A man not long sinca asked us why we did not advertise and boom Leba non. The board of trade had issued n.OOO circulars and we hsd struck liHK) extra ecpies of the Expkkss, and thought the town pretty well adver tised, l he truth is, this msn dul not t; ke the paper published within two m:W of his home. This man will die some day and won't know it till lie reads his obituary in some old "tile." E. W.Potter, the post master at Elm Creek. Neb., says ho has personal knowledge of several cases of rheuma tism, i'.i ibat vicinity, that have been permanently cured by Chamberlain's i'ain Baini, after other remedies were used without behoiit. He has sold it at his dnitr su r there for rive years and says h;- never knew it to f::ii, that "any customer who once lies ChamlerlAi:irs Pain Balm will have iiothintr el-e in stead." For sale by M.

Montague must be preparing for c boon:, judging by the way he is f toek icg up his Mammoth and One-Price Cash Stores. Bv purchasing his goods in such large cnantJties he naturally gets much lower prices. J!e guaran tees g'io.1 go-ids in all the departments of his extensive establisii'mcnts at pri.vs that absolutely astonish ether merchtir.ts in the valley, some of them gointr so fur as to say that Montague retails bis go-ds r.s low as they buy them at wholesale. The careful buyer invariably goes to Momr.gue's. The Grand Army Post and Corjw at this place have made arrangements to observe Memorial day in a very inter esting rnd anp'.-priate manner. Judge 1). R. X. Blackburn and other sneakers have been engaged, invitations bave j been sent t ottu r Post to take part in ; tic exercises, good nm-ic has been se- j cured fir the eceasion, and all our cit-j izens are asked to contribute to the; success f.f the occasion.

The One-Price Ciish Store has become one of the features of Lebanon. As everything is new and frch, nd the prices are so much below that charged in credit-givine establishments, pe(ple who dsire to buy tlieir rooil.-i l';;r cash natural!- go to the corner, where they do not l-.r.ve to make up to the store keeper for the non-payirg customers who, when they ran do so, buy on credit, and who are constitutionally opposed to paying for anything. Get prices at the One-Priee Cash Store and if there is any reason in you that is the place where you will purchase your supplies. Forty Ladle Arrested. A large company of ladies from all parts of Linn county and representing every caste of society were passing down Main street in Albany gazing curiously about as ladies are accustom ed to doing, when without a moment's warning they were all arrested by the sight of the Ladies' Bazaar and were taken before his honor, II. J. Sower. Each, and everyone pleaded guiity, paid cost and expense and cur- uott home some ot the specialties of j the Ladies' Baznnr. Every department ' biyies. nie omy inorougniy sk iaa lady cutter and trimmer in Albany is connected with this establishment. One glance r.t our window is equiva lent to an order for one or more of cur specialties. VT. K. C. KnlorlaincxTt. Following is the program for the en tertainment to be given by the ladies of the W.

I have just ordered another machine for my new plane r at a cost of f 1,000, and shall continue to add to my plant from time to time to meet t.e require ments of a building public. My new building will be 4S.H foot, two stories high, and will be thoroughly equipped with the latest and best machinery. J have made arrangements to keep on hand a large supply of good lumber, and will have a lumber yard the eejual of any i the coast. I also have one of the best-stocked furniture stores in Linn county. E. Goax. Met tti rSgliliKC Editor. An individual wandered into our gilded sanctum this morning and de manded satisfaction. He said that he had been abused, that his fair name had been tarnished, and that nothing but blood, red, bloody blood would satisfy him. The individual was wrong, of course. His obituary will appear in to-morrow's issue. Anacortes Progress. A hop vine growing by the side of our neighbor's two-storv house climb ed up over the roof one warm night tins wctfand by means of its number less tendrils succeeded in dragging off fourteen rounds of a brick flue. Hop growers are clamorous for protection. CRl'MliS KOIi J.VV 1URDS. Here we come with both feet.

K-wral f.f thrf students attended the sneia'.ee Friday evening and entered heartily into the most ei.j yable feat ure of th j occasion, which was lev crenm.

Nona, one of the jay bird family, hrs not jH-rchcd on the pi kle barrel "since tbe new clerk made bis appearance nt the corner store. As for the other Jays they are hungry for oranges and are anxiously awaiting the departure of the new clerk. "Orv," whileout driving last Sunday, was very fortunate in capturing a beau tiful voung Swan. Hs says a bird In the hand is worth two in the bush. Willis also captured a nice jay bird the same day. Two of our young men combined their "wheels" h.st Sunday, secured partners and quailed sod.a w'ater until late in the evening end drove home ty moonlight to recuperate. Threi' young jays without top-knots wer; out horse-hack riding lately, while t lie boss jay was foraging fur" winter supplies. There is n fine new chronometer in town owned by a chr.rniing young lady, w ho will insist on bringing, him to time hereafter. A young lady cf Lebanon call a cer '.einyo'.mgman, "My little Muh-.dist." The hands of th clock admoni di lis that it is roosting time. Somi: of the Brood. A Preacher Cured. We were shocked last Friday even ing on King informed by a prcinlncnt citizen that a most disgraceful occur rence had taken place in our nice little city, leitifr nothing else than the caning of our istvem-.ui friend Rev. Walton Skipwovth. Rev. Skip wot til was for merly pastor r.f the M. E. church at this place, and ha 1 been Ltrc visiting friends hiring the wc.i, unJ we were sorry to li-.tir that he had lie'cn served in such a shameful manner w hile on a short visit to his f rtncr In.me, and we wire determined to li nl our who had committed the grot's cH'en-e and show up i!e guilty parties in a pro cr light t ) the people of Ijvbamm.

On or about the first -f April, 10, two young men left Lebanon fbrsouie point unknown tt us, further than that when last sivn thej- were hea led in the direction of Alas ka. The elder of the twain wr.s about 27 years of age, stood six feet hi height, "had bnVaU Atlanlcnn sl.o iU-ers "fit to Ixar the weight of mightiest monarchies," and never failel to give the imprcisbm of a heavy-weight w hen treading on one's corns. There was nothing jnculiar alout his ib sioifiiomy t. distinguish from the 1 y'.''"' (w bite) citizens a ho enjoy the right of francV.ise in Ameri ca.

He had a marvellous endow ment of serial qualities that plai.-eii him In the highest electric sympathy with with w ith tdl social gatherings. If th" young ladies of Lebanon know nothing more of the whereabouts of tliee two young men than we tiiey arc I st. It Wan Curtailed. A pretty good joke is told on a young lady school teacher in a district not a thousand miles from Lebanon. On Monday a ?i:iall urchin entered the school room with exceedingly dirty face and hands. The teacher bade biiii go and wash himself. In a few minutes the boy returned with his hands niccly washed and wiped. His face also had been washed, but onlv the lower por tion had U-cn wiped dry, the rest of his face was dripping with water. On being told to return and wipe his face he sidd, "But, teacher. I cant." Naturally sur prised, the teacher asked why he could n-t follow her instruct ions, "inasmuch as he had succeeded In washing his face ami hands and wiping tiicm so nicely, as far as he had gone. The small boy answered, while the big tears ran down his cheek: "My shirt ain't long enough." The answer was followed by silence, succeeded by a suppressed titter. The young l.-.dy was so em barrassed that she con't "look at a bolt of sheeting without blushing up to her enrs. A Xsw Industry. Our attention was called to a new industry by. seeing hand-bills cullim for 40 tons of chitem (or cascara s.igrats) bark. This bark is being u.-ed both in the United States and foreigu countries as a cathartic and laxative remedy and the call for It ha been enormous in the last fen years; the bark being manufactured intoelixer' cordials, lluid and soml extracts. The buying of so large a quantity will ma terially assist the people in the sur rounding country. To tlie I mites of Lebanon itud Vicinity Mrs. I.
