Lebanon Express. H". Y. KIRKPATR1CK, Editor - and -'Proprietor The newly elected county of ficials have taken charge of their respective offiues. Lebanon peo ple B'iU be particularly; .concerned with the new county clerk, a citizen of this place; and hope that Mr. ' Montague will make & model of ficial. The people at large wi'd watch closely the conduct of all the new officers. The populist are solmrily pledged to the strictest economy. The lopping off of a few minor expenses here and there will not satisfy the people who have been led to believe that great sav ings would be made. Economy muBt be rigid, continuous and in all places alike. "Useless deputies," "high salaried clerks" and "out rageoDS bills," against which the populists vowed vengeance must cease. Remembering their cam paigu speeches of hard times and dose economy, it would deem pretty cheaky for the populist officials to draw even their legal salaries. It would be impossible to conceive how they could ask the county to pay deputy hire. Let the officials remember to practice their motto of special privileges to none etc, etc - ',(. .-. The June number of the Pacific ' Korthwest has an interesting "write op" of Linn county. It has several handsome engravings of points of interest in Albany, and gives statistics of all the cities, towns and villages, pretty much, near Lebanon. It has no mention of Lebanon at all, but tells all about Plain view. Albany gets the big slice. The fellow who wrote the article should come out to Lebanon and see a place where people are prosperous, contented and happy; where failures are practically un known ;were the finest paper is made in the state; 'where beautiful and delicious fruits abound; where the best flower of the county is made; where the only excelsior works in the county are working full handed and thousand of cords of wood are consumed annually; where the best equipped electric light and water company is located. In a word, let this benighted scribe come to Lebanon and see the only live town in the country. If the people of Lebanon want the motor line from here to Water loo now is the time to act This matter should not be treated as a joke, as some have been trying to do, but we would come out squarely on one aide or the other, and if we want it say what we will do and put it down. We know times are hard but we should show our will ingness. Some say that this man Wilkins don't amount to anything and could not build anything. Mr. Wilkins does not claim to be doing this himself but says be represents capitalists. Eon. Thos. Kay says he believes Wilkins is all right and has subscribed $4,000 to the euter . prise himself alone and will do more if necessary. All of the Water loo people have come to the front liberally. Some of the Sodaville people have kicked out of tbe traces hut the most are coming back. Now the question is what will Lebanon do. It is very possible that a senator ial deadlock will deprive Oregon of any legislation next year. The re publicans will have about sixty members and the majority of the remaining thirty will be populist The republican strength will be about equally divided, and unless they can get together it will he impossible to elect. Verily it be gins to look as though tbe halls of tbe senate will be depopulated through inability of legislatures to elect It, however, will have the good effect of hastening the time when senators will be elected by the people. Wasco News. Tbe democrat national conven tion at Chicago is an interesting body of men. The silver party is in a Btrong majority and elected Tito, W. Daniel as temporary chair- titv-bl lifiiut wait ufeti- menent chairman. The platform is Btrong for silver. No nomina tions have been made for president The indications are for Bland and Boise, Senator Teller's chances are very slim. Many popnlist leaders have been present and show great interest in the pmceeoings. M. A. Miller, of this place, is on the plat form committee. ' '" " The longest bridge in tbe world is the Lion Bridge, near Snngaug, in china. It extends five and a quarter miles over an area of the Yellow Sea, and is supported by 300 huge stone arches. The road way is "0 feet above the water, and is enclosed in an iron network. marble lion, 21 feet long, rests on the crown of each pillar. The bridge was built at the command of the Emperor Keing Long. The Oregonian told its readers a year ago that the Bilver craze had run its race and that it was dead issue. The corps seems to give that paper and its associates considerable trouble just now and from indications is likely to con tinue to do bo until after tbe elec tion, when the Oregonian will have again to mourn another lost cause. The June election in Oregon should be abolished, but to do so it will be necessary to change our old moss covered constitution There is no sound reason for keep ing the election in June. There are many for changing it to No vember. Every presidential year Oregon hps the trouble and expense of two elections, where one would serve all purposes as well. Moro Observer. . A noted physician says that in stead of colds coming from atmos phere changes, as people generally suppose, they general! originate by breathing impure air. Ninety nine per cent of what are termed colds are nothing more or less than the poisoning of the mucous mem brane by bad air. As Ohio man who is well ad vanced in yearB recently had his funeral sermon preached in the presence of 800 people, and then allowed the congregation to file by and take a tearful departure and snake his hand for the last time. Texas democracy will not pre sent a unit front at the Chicago convention as it has done hereto fore. There will be two platforms and two delegations, one for silver and Teller and the other for gold and Cleveland. Mail. Cltlss. An observer, says a correspondent of the Leeds Mercury, has just drawn up a little table in which he arranges the principal cities and towns of the world according to a classification which has at least the merit of novelty. Each town is considered from the point of new of uk trade which are carried on in it According to these statistics in Pari there reside the most tailors, up holsterers, bonnet makers, barbers, ad vocate and men of letters, men cr women. In London we find the moatcal and carriage proprietors, engineer. printers, booksellers and though un.. people would scarcely credit it cocu. In Amsterdam we find the most ar. dealers and money-lenders; lirnieU i celebrated as the pla& rrherc the larg est number of buys saoke; it is is aaplcs that we find the moat street porters: we see the largest number of beer -drinkers In lieriin; Forence pos- thc most flower-sellers, and Lis bon is celebrated as containing the most bailiffs.
