Lebanon Express. I H. Y. KIRKPATR1CK, Kditor - arid - Proprietor. City Official Paper. A man mimed Whitoluw Reid lius been interviewed in San Fran cisco nn the political situation. Who is he? seems like we've heard the name before. Ex. The governor of Illinois has is sued a proclamation declaring next Monday, May 1, a holiday, in hon or of the opening of the world's fair in Chicago. The farmerB generally are feeling the effects of the contribution de manded by the last legislature, for the World's Fair, militia and other rw-kWs expenditures. It comes when they are not overburdened with surplus cash. Ex. ,. At the called meeting of the city council last Friday night the con tract between the city council and Water Company was duly signed. Work will commence on the same rs soon as the weather will permit. There is a great deal nf fall grain washed out through the valley, w hich will require re-seeding, and comparatively little spring grain has yet been put in. A great deal of ground is ready for seed when ever the weather will permit. The . fall grain looks well, and there is hardly a doubt of a heavy orop. Dispatch. The tax gatherer is making Dem ocrats through the Btate by the wholesale. The reckless extrava gance of the last legislature is ap parent t ,ne when their HHxen are doubled, and next year, when the farmer will not be allowed to take out his honest indebtedne.-s from taxation, it will 'be still more so, and the party which has brought this upon the people will .nect with an overwhelming defeat. Portland D;.-i-ateh. The .transcontinental railroads b'h jw an unlimited amount of cheek, in thoir efforts to hold the exuursion rates to the World's Fair at the highest possible point. If it wore not for the Kio Grande en- dearnring te have a low rate estab lished, the through lines would Luve had little or no opposition to holding the fare at the regular rates. At it is, a slight reduction hrs been made. The Rio Grande road shows the right spirit, and it is a pity that it does not control more territory. The idea that organized labor is in danger of getting less than its rights in this countrv at the hands of congress, or of the courts, or at the bar of public opinion, is uot en tertained by anybody, least of all liv senators who make the laws. Vlu.su utx'Wiw of the courts art useful, because they have stirred up all influential bodies and per sons to the need of regulating em ployment on '-railways in the interest of all the parties' concerned. It is for the interest of all concerned that trains should be kept in mo tion, as it is for the interest of all that they should have three meals per day. New York Evening Post. The following article from the Corvallis Times is rieht to the point. The country with poor rwfls will never be as prosperous im country with good roads. "The present long-eontipued inclement weather is disastrous not only to farmers but to everybody, else. People cannot come to town to trade on account of the wretched condi tion of the roads. For the same reason wood cannot be hauled to town, and the supply is so short that neighbors are borrowing of each other a quarter of a cord at a time. Carpenters and laborers arc idle because material cannot be de livered. Some time ago Ir. Will tanks let the contract for the con struction of anew residence to Park McDonald, and though the frame is all ready it cannot be raised be cause stone for the foundation can not be hauled. A hundred similar instances could be pointed out. In an aged community like this, for the wheels of industry to be tocom 'plctely clogged by muddy roads comments most unfavorably Uon the progress and enterprise of citizens." The smallest duy's uiteuuimce at the centemiinl in Pbiltidulnhia was 12,U00.. At C-hico, two weeks be fore the opening of the world's fair, 48.000 people attended in one din. The inference is eertainly favorable. i Secretary Carlisle, in order to meet the heavy demands for gold, has been forced to draw upon the 100,000,UOC reserve. Let him use it all if it is necessary to overcome the attempts of the goldhugs to de stroy the valueof silver. Dispatch. Mr. Buetwick, nftialt Lake, was in town yesterday to swear out a com plaint aguiust Slim Brown, who la teaching sohool at Suit Lake wliool housv, for whipping one of his boya too severely. Inulits shopping in Albany should not rail to visit the Ladies' Basilar.

They carry the well known It. and G. corset and are agents for the staudard paper patterns. Go there, you will receive full value for your muuey. No trouble to show goods. The state board to-day effected the purchase of a stove foundry at the state pri-oii. The price paid was 40. 000. The purchase was consummated after considerable liiHouseinu and in quiry. It was tlwught the officers would he able to purchase It for k lew sum, but It could uot be done, and as they were anxious to have the convicts employed this was thought the best move. With R. J. Firming as super intendent it is expected the foundry will be started Monday when the man ufacture of stoves will be commenced. Don't forget the editor whet you have an item.
