One of the commendable features r i ' i "i. ...... uic luafc itruwiuic wob. u'c eage of a law protecting certain inftctiveroiifl birds. In nil the feathered tribe it would be hard for the farmer and gardener to find a stauncher friend than the robin. Perhaps as much could be said in favor of other birds which come it? within the purlieus of protecteive legislation. ..The gardener especi ally, who is compelled to wage a ceaseless warfare ueainst insects, will appreciate any legislation which will protect his vegetables against the myriads of insects winch prey upon his coming crop and at times threaten its destruction- Two Kansas towns elected women police judges, Mrs Mary L. Burton, formerly editor of Kansas, and at present postmistress at Jamestown, and Mrs. Jessie McCormick, of Burr Oak, Jewel county. If you waut 'tome valuable hints on courtship, i interrogate some of the old topers after they have paid their re - rspects to these female executives. It would be hard to describe the : fellings of a man just coming out of debauch as he stands in the pres ence of a sworn enemy of the liquor Ttraffie. Better a hundred-fold to -fail into the hands of man under Tuch circumstances than to fall in the clutches of incensed woman hood. " If we had. more police judges of female gender the drink -cusre would doubtless decrease 50 2er cent. ' ' ' - - The Salem Statesman says ,the people of Oregon don't seem to be crowding one another to get into rthe Farmers' Alliance ring." The hrase, "the people" is very indefi nite and is sometimes so construed ais to mean a very small number. We take this to be the sense in Twh ich t h e; J ta tes man uses the iternjuowejier unpalatable the 1redictioriiit is becoming more ap parent every day that the yeo imanrjVill yet govern this country, -Mf'to question the statement one jnust put out his own eyes or im peach the reliability of his senses. Ridicule is an argument open to ?aJl and one does not need to be a 'Webster to use it. Some questions, liowever, absolutely refuse to be .laughed down or jeered down and we take this question of governmental reform to be one of the stayers A society of ladies in the East hare appealed to the Oregon Press Association, through L- Samuels, o leave out of the newspapers the farrowing details of crime. It is a noticeable fact that no pains are spared by the press generally in placing before the reading public he rottenness and moral putres eence of the social fabric, while the purest and holiest instincts of the iraee are either held in abeyance or -di?mised with a line. It just as anrpossibU to develope a pure minded race of people while this state of things is allowed to con itinme as it would be to harvest a crop of pine apples from an iceberg "an the latitude of Greenland. Pros tituted virtue and loss of sister hood are eagerly seized upon by Ahe carrion dealers of the press not with a view to exciting disgust and abhorrence of the crime but as an ' Appetizer for the sensual, the prof ligate and the lecherous character. SOBER THOUGHTS FOR SOLEMN PEOPLE WHAT HAVE I BOXE? NO. 3. ' Yoa have done wrong more than once.. How many times in yonr life do you siippoM that yoa have acted, ppoken, thonglit and felt sinfully and wrong? So matvy times that there is but one Being who can tell how many and He will tell, when "the books are opened," before assembled worlds.

For this opinion there is as little support de rived from reason as from Scripture. There is none from either. It is ab solute folly to think and talk thus. A man should be ashamed to enter tain such an opinion. All analogy is against it. Is this all that the magis trate requires of the subject, or the parent of the child, viz: to maintain proper proport ion u!!,wt;cii i iit-u or tmeoience ana tneir acts or aisone tlienco, never permitting the latter to outnumber the former? May the sub ject or the child, break this law, pro vided only lie obey that? Does not all law require universal obedience? Did any law ever allow or excuse its own transgression in any respect or instance? There is not a government or society of any kind existing among men, having laws or rules for its reg ulation, which does not pequire the t.nrt observance of all La rules by its j every member. It punches everv breach of each rule, it does not wait j until more than half of them have ; been broken; and yet men expect I that the great and holy God, who can- I not look upon sin wiih any degree of i allowance, will altew them to treat j His taw 4 reated. as no other law was pvi r If man, whose moral Jjes arc o liable to perversion, recoils j At the idea of cm tiding in an imj en- i Umt convict, how can God look with 4rtWrjl0Am'e n unclean heart ? " , M in would have infinite holiness do : whit Ins own faded morality cannot do. He would have the sun overlook tJofects which hta feeble. rUckciing rush-light brings into startling prom inence. How does this notion of an average character apply in the prac tical concerns of every-day life? A farmer takes a load of fruit to the cannery; on the top of his fruit boxes he puis some extra-tine fruit, in the middle he puts some good fruit, and in the bottom of his boxes he puts some seedlings, moth-eaten and very inferior of their kind, : IJocs the pur chaser average the fruit, or does he not insist that he stipulated for good fruit throughout A farmer learns that his fence has been blown down mid he sends his hired man to repair 1 1-- a tuvt mi luute ib wt;ii rcuiH mgit, but the man averages his fence by building it elm-en rails high in some places, while in others he lays up but three rails. The farmer's crop suffers in consequence, but he canuot blame the hired man, ho built an average fence, a fence that would average seven rails to the pannel throughout. Common sense says the fence is no stronger than the weakest point, the pannels with only three rails. My friend, the argument of an average life, of an average character, is obvi ously fallacious, and you know it. X. O. O. F. CELKBttATION. The anniversary celebration on last Friday was participated" in by the Ieb anon lodge and a number of neigh boring lodges. Hundreds were deterred from coming by the threatening aspect of the weather. About thirty members were present from AUtany, a like number from Brownsville, a few from Crawfordsville, Halsey and tilvertbn. The unfavorable turn in the weather shows how the best laid plans may be abridged or entirely up set by the elements, over which man has no control. The visiting brethren were met at the depot by Lebanon lodge and the procession was formed, which marched through the principal streets keeping step to the music which was furnished by the Lebanon and Brownsville cornet bands. The exer cises Were not held en the Academy grounds as a c first eouteniplated, the trustees of the M. K. church having kindly tendered the use of their com modious edifice for the occasion. The oration by M. C, Ueorge was pro nounced one of his happiest efiorts. At, the close of the exercises at the church the procession was reformed an t marched to the Odd Fellows' buil ding where a free dinner was served to the visiting brethren by the Ladies Aid Society at the expense of Lebanon lodge. The Brownsville Comet Band in superb uniform and with a set of six hundred-dollar instruments, were wel come visitors. The Lebanon Cornet Band ulso had on their "store clothes" and played exceedingly well. The vo cal music, declamations, etc., were of a high order. It is the wish of all that the weather may be more propitious at the next annua! gathering. fil'.NDAT'S SrOBT. Had wtf the gifts of a Mercury re porter we could furnish our readers with some sensational Sunday reading. Our reporter, not wishing to identify himseif with the motley throng of pleasure seekers, was compelled to take his news second-hand. The first at traction of the program was a match game of base ball between nine men Iielonging with the circus and the Leb anon base ball, nine in which the latter were victorious. Before retiring from the field a slugging match was arranged between two negroes, attaches of the ci reus. In order that the gore might flow freely, the battle ground was located on the line of the propfjsed Lebanon Canal, wh-se gentle slope allowed the lite-giving cur rent to mix and mingle with the waters of the Kautiam. Not knowing either the name of the victor or the vanquished, we are unable to give thej resultof this, Lebanon's first mill. Slug- i gers and spectators (with but one ex ception) retired fnmi the field well satisfied with the initial number of what will doubtless prove a favorite' pastime. In the evening a second slug ging match was arranged between one of Lebanon's muscular men and a sup porter of the Civil Bights Bill. The result was that the 'color line' was entirely obliterated, the negro having wasnea ms face to - paleness wita tne blood of a white man's veins. THE GOLDES KILE BAZAAR. The fullest store we have ever seen In Linn county, the finest assortment of goods ia the valley, outside of Port land, it to be seen at the Golden Rule Bazar. Children never tire looking at the immense stock and uuiquedisnlay of toys; the stock of crockery, glnssware ana ciiinaware is tne wonaerana an mi ration of all who see it; the si x h undred pounds of tea of the choicest brand and best flavor, which the proprietor has sold within the lrst year, has cre ated a thirst for more of this excel lien t beverage. White Ir. Price and other chemist's are wrangling over the purity tit their baking powders, the Ooldeu Rule prize pnking powder sells and no questions are asked and no fault is found as to its merits. A complete line of shelf hardware, lamps, tricycles, baby carriages, etc, are to be seen at this house, uou't speua yio gonig to Portia nd when you ca n see all the above sights for the simple cost of a look. When in Albany spend an hour in this groat curiosity store and you wilt always be glad that you visited C4radwohrs Golden Rule Ba zaar. Albany, Oregon. A Live City. The cry of dull times becomes epi demic, and you hoar, it often without reason. Money is es plentiful now as ever at this lime of the year. There is ' S :n rp,.. i Amliiwr ,n,,l, against loaning it on uncertain risks, and conservative men are Hi lowing it to lie idle rather than do so. Notwith standing there is a healthy movement forward generally through the-valley, and Albany is progressing with other cities. Its pruned are bright. Prices of realty are firm, considerable buil'd ing is being done -and the total for the year promises to make a fine showing. The bridge will head the list. Hold up yonr heads, talk business; push to gether, do not be governed by selfish motives; but he broad minded, and we will alwava have the hiTirest and best city in Western Oregon. With her un surpassed advantages there is i o danger of Albany lagging behind in the race. A transcontinental line is an assured fact, and means much for this city.

How easy it would be to propagate this valuable article of com merce. Instead of cutting down the trees, leave a strip from top to bottom, to in years to come you could gather another crop. People, old and young, ro forth to become vandals In every sonxc of the 'word, by chopping down and peeling the trees kill ing them forever. Not only this, hut per sona who do not own a foot of land, roam over the country at will, armed with an ax and sack, and wherever they see Caseara trwi, make them common property. We ask, reader, is this right? If Caseara ia a product, then it must be property. Were we on a jury in a case ol this kind, we would decide against a miui for borrowing bark from his neighbor just as quickly as if he had stolen a horse; for if a person own a farm, we ask yon by what right these vandals arc allowed to come and peel your trees or dig up your pasture in search of grape-root. V hy can these persons go on government land and forever destroy a val uable tree, when a poor saw-mill man is sent to the penitentiary or forced to pay the heaviest fine for cutting a few old doty saw logs t When the golden spike was driven on the O.

Your apples are shipped to "Frisco, where they are branded "California apples, raised on the foot-hills of the Siskiyoas," shipped East and are sold at fabulous prices. Last year many tous of Caseara bark were shipped to 'Frisco from Oregon, and now you hear the Kastern papers tell how it was produced in California and shipped East from 'Frisco.

I left the sunny South on the morning of March 17th, for Indiana, in company with my cousin, Eoline Hiatt, While in North Carolina I had a very pleasant time, wan dering through green lanes, picking flowers and getting an appetite for the bread, butter and tea which awaited us at the quaintest and neatest of wayside inns. One can feast their eyes with beauty on the frreat cathe drals, while the soul is stirred by the music of organ and choir. There may be seen houses hundreds of years uld and full ot historic associations, and one may wander the moor where the wild, red deer still find a home. . ' In Indiana the March winds blow cold and searching, and seem to reach the inner most part of one; still, when we arrived within the preat gas belt, we thought we were back in the sunny South, for they can give any temperature you want. On the wav here we made onlvone ston that was to take a stroll over" the citv of ashinKtotij visiting the rnpuol, botanical garden, Smithsonian Institute. Washing ton's monument, and the White Houwi. We gave a guide one dollar to show us through the capital, and it was the most in teresting dollar I ever sjient. At Fairmount, Jnd., my native home, is one of the largest gas wells in the United States. A few words about g:is mipht be of interest, as Lebanon has been looking for gas. I think Lebanon people ought to be encouraged, as there docs not seem to be any sign to dig by. The State geologist has failed different times in this State. Where he read there was gas he found salt water: where he read there was not gns he fourm pas. For heating purposes, natural gas ex-t-eeds coal gas 3214 per cent. Used in the crude way. twenty feet of ks are equal to one pound of coal; in the ordinary way, 11.29 feet equal one pound of coal;" in tfie most e-onomieal wav, 9.2 foot equal one pound of coal. For illuminating aurrowa. naturni pas possesses only about one-half ine vame oi coai gas, tnougn it is largely used by the employment ot" special burners for that purpose. II. IJiatt. A CORRECTION Editor I.ebanox Express: I wish to correct the statements of Mr. G. P. R. in your last issue in rearard to railroad affairs, where he stated that the road would be a standard wind gauge. Now, Mr. G. P. R., that road is already that, and the next move will be to make it a paper Range; when this is done the B. K. Co. are sup posed to do the rest. In regard to retailing Bob, I haven't thought of that yet, and as I expect the operation would be an expensive one, and as you seem to have more time than I have, 1 would suggest that you do it free of charge, or at least take your iay from Bob's hind feet. Now, Mr. R., oh, excuse me Green Pe ter I would suggest that a man of your intellect, in order to be of service to" the community in which he lives, and as a help to the editor of this paper to make the paper valuable to send off to parties elsewhere, that you write something about the re sources of Switzerland and its prospects, and not try to rake up antaiomsms. titO.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than ali other diseases put to gether, and until tiie last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a rcat many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescn bad local remedies, and hy con stantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven Catarrh to be a constitutional dii ease, arid therefore requires constitutional treatment: Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufac tured by F. J. Cheney A Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the mar ket. It is taken i7iternally in dotcs from 10 drops to a teaspoonful.
