Our frond Perry Coshow spent the

to Albany Monday. Flo tells us that

Whv not have a militia company in
Lebanon? We certainly have the
material of which good soldiers are
made. Before organizimr, however,

enough men can le found to accept the
position of a pri-ate soldier, theoilb t rs

curriculum it will be but- f?w years
until he will distance a host of com
petitors in the mad rush for the top of
the ladder.
The One-Price Cash Store has be
come one of the features of Lebanon.
As everything is new and fresh, and the
prices are so much below that charged
111 credit-giving establishments, peo
ple who desire to buy their goods
for cash naturally go to Ihe corner,
where they do not have to make up to
the storekeeper for the non-paying cus
tomers who, when they can do s; buy
en credit, and who are constitutionally
opposed to payimr for anything. Get

Several months" ago, Mr. Henry
Piummer, of Clements, Cal , who is

but the disagreeable elleet that followed

after the cramp had been relieved. I
persuaded him to try Chamberlain's

The following is from the Oregon
City Courier: "The performance of
Prof. MeKanlass minstrels on Monday
evening was received with uproarious
applause. The company has excellent
singers rud some of the jokes of the
end men are deuced funny. The fongs
and dances by the two little colored

much Interest. They exhibited rare
skill. If you wish an evening of mer
riment go to Prof. MeKanlass' frhow.
The troup makes merry' over the
Brownsville Times which is wroth
lieeause the professor would not permit
the four-bit Brownsville roughs to
capture the six-bit seats."
It Is queer some people have such a
Keen appreciation ot . darkey monkey

truism "Like seeks V,k"'' will explain
this. As for the Times lieing "wroth
ticoause the professor would not per

people know all niton t that. MeKan

IXCIDEXTS OF THE DAY, ETC.
Brownsville may well feel proud of
her celebraltou, which passed oil tothe
satisfaction of all interested, and hap
pily without accident or any occurrence
to mar the happiness of the occasion.
The early light of morning broke
upon heavy banks of clouds, which,
seemingly threatened rain, but only
served to make the day pleasant and
not uncomfortably cool.
As per programme, the procession
formed at 9 A. M., headed by the
Brownsville Cornet Band, who with
brightly burnished instruments, and
their new uniforms, presented a very
creditable appearance, next iu order
came "Our Future Senators," the
little boys all under 10 years of age,
ana some not only o years old, prettiy
dressed in red, while, and blue, happy
in their position, which to them, was
the acme of joy. The Liberty Car, its
adornment, festooning of tlowers, rib
bons, ilags and bevy of beautifully
dressed young ladies, with happv
smiling faces, each liearing an Ameri
can Hag, representing the various
states in the union, was one of the
main features of attraction, and was
most truly a pyramid of loveliness.
Next came the "Lady riders" mount
ed upon handsomely caparisoned
horses, each and every lady leautiful
in attire, graceful in noise, elicltating
murmers of admiration and applause
from the immense throng of people
that crowded our streets. Arriving at
the picnic grounds the programme as
announced was carried out; the speak
ing was interesting, the songs and
musical entertainment pleasing, and
the various races productive of much
merriment.
Too much praise can not be accorded
the management, the-marshal and
aids, for their well arranged and most
efficiently carried out plans for the
enjoyment of the public ou this the
Fourth of July lS'.K), to them is due
the fact that all passed off happily
without a hitch of proceedings or any
of those unfortunate accidents that
oftimes occurs during a'gathering of
this kind.
Our streets presented a lively appear
ance, crowds of people passed to and
through, the principal business houses
were haltdsomely festooned and deco
rated with bunting and Hags, strains
of martial music lloated upon the air,
and without exception ail seemed to
bcaitily enter into the spirit of the
occasion. There were present from
Albany former citizens of this place
namely: F. F. Croft, wife and children,
O.' P. Coshow. Jr., and family; O. H.
HoU rg, IioiiisOalhrnith, E. D. Mover
;.nd George V, W'rieht and family.

poola inintiiar district, returned
week. The Captain has for two rs
had great faith in this district a-id' the
last four weeks spent iu these mines
has made his belief doubly sure. No
doubt has ever been entertained as to
the richness of the surface qurtz, but
some doubted the permaiioicv of thy
leads. In the absence of all oilier testi
mony one would think that the fact
of these leads having been discovered
and located for miles across deep can
ons and over mountains, never varylnir
their course and always rewarding the
faithful prospector by giving unmistak
able evidence of the riches of this sec
tion of country, would be sufficient to
satisfy reasonable minds. The unani
mous testimony of every man who Is
tall enough in his calling to Iks seen
over n half-dozen mining camps, has

We Are Not The People
At tl'.e baseball business, but the casi business works like a
charm. The "Lebanon Express" is read by a great many
people, but there seem to be a few who do not read. To
those and others we want to say that we are in dead earnest
about selling for cash, but we are selling cheap.
Now as a business proposition, is it nnt better to buy for
cash and get your goods cheap, than to buy on long "time
and pay a big profit?
credit house can sell cheap; they must add an extra
profit to carry bad bills, for they arc gure to make bad ac
counts. No credit house can do business without making
bad accounts.
There are lots of people in and around Lebanon, as the
Fourth of July celebration showed, and they must have
goods, and I go on the plan that it is better to sell two pairs
of shoes for cash at 25 cents profit than to sell one pair at
50 cents profit on credit better for me and better for the
buyer.
If you cannot get the cash to buy goods with, bring in
your eggs and chickens, and if you have none of them, get
them, raise them; they are always as good as cash, and are
much more plentiful than the hard cash if people would
only raise them.
The day of high prices is past. The poor cannot pay it
even the rich cannot afford to -pay it. Give me a chance to
sell you some cheap goods, but do not forget to bring the
cash. This means everybody.
