Kmothered thoughts are like lead in a musket, they need' some power behind them to make them effective. fay, gentlemen, how many of you patronized the soap vender three weeks ago? Don't all speak at once. If the businessmen of a town do not patronize one another, can they expect other people to trade at home? The celebrated Charter Oak and Jewel stoves and Ranges are sold by .Matthews & Washburn, Albany. Phil Smith sold his half interest in the it. Charles last Monday to Mr. Waldo, of Dakota; consideration $2000. The proprietors of the brick block haye repainted the front of the build ing, and it now presents a very neat appearance. Messrs.

One of the nieest bouquets we have seen this season was brought to our office Wednesday by two of the nicest young ladies of Lebanon. The building for the machine and repair shop is Rearing completion. This shop will lie thoroughly equipped with the newest and best machinery. If you need machine, engine or cylinder oils you should go to Cruson & Menzie'sand get the lest oils that have ever been kept in Lebanon. I am prepared to chop grain Thurs- j nays, t riaays ana Saturdays; saw wood Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesda3's. H. Cross. The music of the wood-saw is again heard in our town, and will continue its musical notes till fall, or to the close of the tooth and cord-wood campaign.

Burney Mark ham was the victim of a painful accident this week. In rid ing across a walk his horse slipped and fell across his leg In such a way as to crush his limb. Some men spend half of a life-time in discovering what they are good for, wheras if they had applied to their neighbors they would have found it out tn five minutts. If Democrats are as thick to the square foot ill other parts of the State as they were in Lebanon Saturday, the outlook for other parties is any thing but eneouragiug. For live, wide-a-wake hardware and stove men Matthews fc Washburn, of Albany, Oregon, deserve the large trade they are having for the low prices they make on all goods. Some people are always so busy meddling with other people's business it will not be surprising at the general resurrection to find some of them get tiug out of somebody else's grave. I am now prepared to furnish my customers with pure Boiled and Iiow Unseed Oil, sold on guarantee. I also carry Masury's pure colors. M. A. MilXEti. You may talk about your cultured men, your educated horses, your tricky mules and bucking bicycles, but Clint Gordon has the only dog in Oregon that has ever been awarded a diploma. We heard an old Oregonian make this remark last week: ""I defy any paper in the county to compare with the Express." Nil wonder men walk two miles to borrow it and the women cry for it. The Governor's speech in Lebanon lat Saturday was a masterly review of the political situation in Oregon. He had a warm reception, a lnrce hearing and a host of admirers Loth secret and confessed. A man who lives near Albany was beard to remark that "Lebanon is a livelier town than the county seat." Of course we do not claim this", but we are moving along at a little more than an average pace. C. C. Haekleman is riding his hob by still. Ife received 141 boxes of la dies fine shoes of the Hough & Ford manufacture. Be your toes round, pointed or square I" can suit you iu size, shape or quality. The homeliest man in Linn Co. says after a close and careful examination that Matthews & Washburn, Albany, Oregon, carry the largest stock if builders' hardware in the valley and sell at the lowest rriees. All the stock for the Cheadle canal, which is to furnish M-ater power for Lebanon, was subscribed Tuesday. A corps of engineers will l e here next week, and work on the f-SO.lKX) canal will begin at an early date. Miss Buzzell gave a very interest ing address at the C. P. church Wednesday evening. Having labored among the Chinese for year?. Miss Buzzell is familiar with the customs and superstitions of the empire. Died, in Lebanon, Mav 12, Mr. J. Hyde. Mi. Hyde was born in Ver mont in the year 1SP5, emigrated to Michigan in 1ST1. He was well known in Salem, Brownsville and Lebanon. Deceased was buried in Brownsville. The man who habitually sponges his news would steal sheep if the occasion offered. Society calls one a well read gentleman, the other a thief. We have no instrument fine enough to dis criminate letween the two characters. Mr. Hani in has built two mills, cleared his yard and will soon be ready for active operation. He will turn out 7000 bricks daily. So skillful has he iK-come in this branch of industry lie is called by way of distinction "Brick" Hardin. O'Neil Bro?. have already engaged 2000 tons of straw for their paper mill at this place. It will require the annual straw product of 3000 acres to keep the mill in continuous operation, for it must be remembered that the ma chinery stops not night or day for 3115 days in the year. An old blue-grass fellow interrupted Sam Jones the other day iu a sermon and said: "We raise horses and bring up children." "Yes," letumed Sam," you raise horses worth Sr.0,00;a piece and bring up children worth three dollars ahead." Thereismoresolidsen.se in that remark than Sam usually gets off. Chas. L. Miller, of Brownsville, i a breeder of thoroughbred chickens. He has the Silver-Laced Wyandottes, White Wyandottes, Plymouth Racks, Brown Leghorns, Houdans, Black Mi noreiis and other breeds of the purest strain. Farmers will find it much cheaper and safer to buy of him than to send East. The following passengers boarded the narrow gauge Monday for Port land and intermediate points: Peter Hume, J. M. Bilyeu, Lee Bilveu, J. J. White and wife. J. F. Venner, Mrs. Miller, Di'.la Stanard, Hon. Jeff Mey ers, Stephen Goble, J. C McFerson, James Goble, Frank Smith and wife, A. Jack Adams. Mr. Cummings brought to the real ertate office of Peterson' fc Wallace last week some uuique specimens of petri faction. A heavy slick of oak timber weighing about 100 pounds has under gone the transforming process in such way as to show the grain of the wood in as perfect a manHer as shown in the living oak. Call and see them. Let each Sabbath school in Linn county send delegates to the mass con vention to beheld in Albany, May 29 and 30. The delegates will be'enttr tained by the good" people of Albany. All Sabbath khool workers in the county are invited to be present and take part. For program, address Dr. G. W. Gray, chairman, or Rev. G. S Hanleiter, secretary: The Lebanon fire company gave a drill last, Friday evening, the object iK'ing to test several sections of hose as to their reliability in case of an exi gency. One section succumbed to the pressure and will soon be replaced with a new one. The company exercised quite freely, had the usual amount of fun and accomplished their purpose. We have an A 1 fire company. Dr. B. Hamlin, of Lemore, Cal.,says a few dozen Itottles of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy which he sold there cre ated such a demand for the remedy that he eouid not well get along witout it. Those who use it find it so much suporior to any other remedy they have ever tried that they recommend it to their friends, and that is what makes it so popular. For sale by M. A. Miller. Mr. Frank O'Neil, of the rm of O'Neil Bros., of California, si rived In Lebanon last Saturday. It will be re membered that O'Neil Bru bought considerable property in Lebanon last winter, their object being to build a paper mill that shall turn out not less than five tons of paper daily. With this end in view Mr. O'Nei! has come to Lebanon and the initiatory steps iu this great enterprise will be taken immediately. K. W. Potter, the post master nt Elm Creek, Neu.t says ho has p'Tsnal knowledge of several ens--a ot rheuma tism, In that vicinity, that have been perm Miently cured by Chamberlain's Pain Bairn, after other remedies were used without benefit. He has sold It at his drug store there for live years and says he never knew It to fail, that "any customer who onee uses Chamberlain's Pain Balm will have nothing else in stead." For sale by M. A. Ixliller. Montague must Iw preparing for a boom, judging by the way ho is slock ing up his Mammoth and One-Price Cash Stores. By purchasing his goods in such large quantities he naturally gets much lower prices. He guaran tees good goods in all the departments of his extensive establishments at prices that absolutely astonish other merchants iu the vall'ey.some of them going so far as to say "that Montague retails his goods as low as they buy them at wholesale. The careful buyer invariably goes to Montague's. The One-Price Cash Store has lccome one of the features of Lebanon. As everything is new and fresh, and the prices are so much la-low that charge in credit-giving establishments, people who desire to buy their goods for cash naturally go to the corner, where they do not have to make up to the (store keeper for the non-paying customers who, when they can do so, buy on credit, and who are constitutionally opposed to paying for anything. Get prices at the One-Price Cash Store ami if there Is any reason in you that is the plaee where you will purchase your supplies. By far the largest real estate transac t ion in Lebanon was made Friday. J. R. Kirkpatriek bought of J. M. Cowan his addition to Lebanon and 33J acres additional, for the sum of i,0K). It is seldom that entire additions change hands in any city. The above transac tion shows the faith of the purchaser in Lebanon's future to a remarkable degree. Ten acres of the acquired ter ritory M ill be transformed Into a beau tiful park and will add to our town a very attractive feature which hitherto was supposed to belong to cities alone. Mr. Kirkpatriek has declared his in tention to make of Lebanon a second Seattle in kind, but not in degree. KSJOYABLE ENTERTAINMENT. One of the most enjoyable entertain ments of the season was that given by the W. R. C. of this place Friday night lat. The occasion was that of the presentation of a flag to the Lebanon public school. A highly-seasoned pro gramme regaled the large audience until a late hour. Lack of space for bids an extensive mention of individ ual merit. The first on the program was a recitation by Bert Wight, and showed rare elocutionary ability in one so young. "The Star Spangled Ban ner" by the male quartette was en cored. Dr. Duekett, Al. Foil is, A. Rob erts and Prof. Wright have musical talent of a high order. The flag was presented by Miss Saltmaish in the choicest of the "King's English," and was accepted by Prof. Wriglit in behalf of the public sehcol in the purest diction of our vernacular. A song, -!ear to every American heart, "The Red, White and Blue," was sung amid the waving of banners by a score ef girls. The declamation by Mrs. Cru son, ''Our Flag," was well rendered, and showed her to be the possessor of unusual elocutionary talent. Follow ing this was the reading of "Samantha Jenkins' Will" in poetic metre, which was very amusing and was enjoyed by all. The entertainment closed with a laughable pantomime farce and a tat leau. The Lebanon Cornet Rand fur nished the music fbr the occasion, and aroused the patriotism within us to such a degree that wefelt like shout ing three cheers for our cornet baud. WATERLOO niUKMSOS.

Forty Ladies Arrested. A large company of ladies from all parts of Linn county and representing every caste of society were passing down Main street in Albanv 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. Bower. Khc1i, and everyone pleaded guiity, paid cost and expense and car ried home some of the specialties of the Ladies' Ba.aar. Every department of the Bazaar is replete with the latest styles. The only thoroughly skilled lady cutter and trimmer in Albany is connected with this establishment. One glance at our window is equiva lent to an order for oue or more of our specialties. A Card of Thanks. The ladies of the W. R. C. desire to return their thanks to one and all who so kindly assisted them in their enter tainment last Friday, especially to Mrs. Mattie Holt, who came to the co'ps' rescue without a moment's warning and sang "The Red, White and Blue,'1 which had been prepared by another party who tailed to appear. Committee. v KLKCTltIC ItAILWAV. Ei'tTon I.FiMMo FtPin'-w: While nt Fori laml last week I w.-s very mucli impressed with the great development that has teen made there In the past six months, In way of trans pottstion 13' electric railways. They have four fine systems now Iu opera tion and more In contemplation. Why cannot Lebanon build an electric rail way to Wateiloo and Pothiville? At Waterloo Falls the plant could be plac ed at small expense. A gotnl turbine water wheel would give the necessary power. The rails for the road c;uld be obtained from the S. P. Co. when they change the narrow gauge to a standard gauge, and the probability Is that the H. P. Company would sell, say six miles, very cheap, and we could get cars from Portland that have tevn replaced by larger ones, or we could buy two or three of tho narrow gauge cars. I believe that this Hue could le established and put upon a paying basis at once, especially during the summer season. The people would soon find that they could get to tha noted Soda Springs at Sodaville and Waterloo at a comparatively low cot. Iebanon, Sodaville and Waterloo could have electric lights, and probably Brownsville and other jmints would contract for lights. A franchise could bo obtained along the county road for the line, and in fact the whole plant could be put in very cheaply, ami In my opinion it would do more to ad vertise the resources of tills locality than any oMicr one thing. In the near future there will probably le a large hotel ami, tcihai, a sanitarium established at Waterloo. Hodavllie's new hotel will soon Ih completed. The properties of thoe springs are such that if the people of Portland and oth er places knew that they could obtain relief from nearly all the Ills that the llesh is heir to, why these wonderful springs would become noted far and wide, and an electric railway from Lebanon (the terminus of the S. P. t'u's Lebanon branch) would have more travel than they could handle from early spring to late into the win ter, and in all probability fill the year round. With our water ditch an as sured fact; the O'Neil Bro. on the ground to commence ojKT.ttions on the paper mill; the fsiNiO school house un der way; not to mention the many other public and private improve ments going on in Lebanon, surely we can justly feel proud of our reeord and when an electric railway i in running order we will then have the bot. little city of its size in the state of Oregon; and if the S. P. Co. oan Ik? induced to run the old Oregonian Railway line through Lebanon when it is changed to a standard gatttre, then Ibanon will take a rush forward that will as tonish the oldest inhabitants. They will either have to fall into line and go ahead on the wave of prosperity or fall by the wayside. Who will lie the next to nsritate "this question ami keep the ball rolling? Yours truly, B.
